Durban beautiful isn't it?

Hmm

But you think
this is the real Durban.

Oh no, no, no, no, no.

Let me take you
to the real deal.

You see
many years ago

the government took us,
all the Indian people,
and put us in one place.

They named it Chatsworth.

Ahh, just a place in England.

Hmm what the bloody cheek?

But never mind
they did like that.

We struggle and
struggled instead.

Only one thing hey
the houses are
so close to each other.

The neighbors are so nosey
they become like
our extended family.

I'm just lying man
not all of them.

You see these two here

they used to be best friends.

but now oh!

Desan, Preggie,
I'm back!

Which idiot plans
a morning wedding

-I love morning weddings.
-Moron.

Oh darling another call.

Modern recreations,
Marlin speaking.

You know.

She's in the back
and I'm in the front.

Oh no, I know full well
not to put the Naidoos
and Kandasamys together.

It's all sorted
okay? Bye.

Arsevan.

I said aqua blue, not sky blue.

Hmm

Ey, this Arsevan I tell you

His name says it all.

How is it ?

Come with me honey.

Not now my hair.

Preston you ready?
You nervous?
You going to practice?

Morning Ma.

I ironed five shirts.
Go quickly and choose one.

I don't want to be late,
I don't want to be late
to clean up.

She means she wants to
get there before
the Kandasamys do.

Ey cool hairstyle bro.

My Sari
she's wearing my Sari.

Get in the car man.

The lady said
it was a designer Sari.

She said
it was a designer Sari
now that one is wearing it.

She is wearing my Sari.

She actually thinks
she can pull it off.

-You close the front door?
-Yes man.

-What about the alarm?
-I did that.

-You put the iron off?
-Oh shit.

No, no, no, I put the iron off.

-Yeah I put it off.
-You sure?

Yes!

Can't believe
she had my Sari on.

Prishen Preggie.
Come this side.

-Howzit Elvis?
-Howzit Pregs?

Preggie.
Hi everyone.

Come, come sit by us.

Ma, they can't sit here.
These seats are allocated.

Same thing
I was thinking, sit, sit.

You don't seem to understand.
Allocated means they are
reserved for other people.

Hey, I know what allocated
means.

I'm old not stupid.

Read there.

Make yourselves comfortable.
Sit, sit.

I am going to kill that Marlin.

So nice hey

we are all sitting together
like one happy family.

Ladies and gentlemen.

Please rise as we
welcome the wedding recession.

Preggie,
where is Shanti and Des?

Where is your mother?

How are you Aya?

I'm counting
on Shanti what to do.
Who will make it to eighty?

-One leg in the grave.
-Shame Aya, don't say that.

I'm sure you didn't eat
in the last 10 minutes?

Try them!
So what did you think
of the bride and groom?

They looked so cute together.

You want to talk you together?
You look like two twins only.

Don't be ridiculous ma

our bodies wear the Sari's
in completely different styles.

Yeah the one has curves and
the other one
is cold and long with no shape.

She should have
bought two Sari's
and sown them together.

Hmm I rather die
than look like a toothpick.

Hmm.. now there's some idea.

Oh you think I must die?

Hey why don't you
take out your cell phone?

Well take one
nice picture together.

What you call it. Selfie?

Don't be silly ma
she won't fit.

How's our two ek se?

They don't even know how
to behave at a wedding
sis man.

I was getting heartburn
then I started chowing.

But you know
when I saw those nametags

I just knew
we were in trouble bro.

But hey, we mustn't
get involved in that.

Ja, cheers to that!

Cheers guys.

Hey what did you pour in here?

This is going
straight to charity.

Who you talking to?

A friend from campus.

Boy?

Yeah, boy a friend.

Boyfriend.

Ma If I had a boyfriend,
you'd be the first to know.

What was that?
No you, you carry on

Here's your coffee.

But I asked for tea.

You know you really need
to sort your mother out.

She's old love,
just give her a break.

Yes Saris, I'm 79 years old.

Anytime I'm going to go.

Sometimes

I even see a white light.

Plus with
the cataracts and all

See what a drama queen she is.

Normally I can
put up with her nonsense.

But my ears are still fine.

You see?

The pressure is not coming down.
I must give you Sushi's
pressure tablets.

Ma

I told you not to use
other people's medication.

That boys car
is literally falling apart.

So cheap and embarrassing.

Can't believe we actually
allow our daughter
to drive in that.

-It's not safe.
-You don't remember doll?

You used to drive in your
father's old trusty Valiant?

Besides he's
giving her a ride.

He's giving her a ride alright.

Let me go, Sadis.

My sugar's feeling low
feeling a bit dizzy.

I need one sweet.

Jen Jen Jennifer!

The milk.

Ugh, hah!

You're such a punk.

What do you have for me?

You know my mother.

Wait, how much time do we have?

About five minutes.

Only five?

I could push it to ten?

Okay?

Oh here enjoy.

Wow!

-Your favorite.
-Yum!

I thought the wedding was great.

I thought so.

It did get pretty interesting.

You couldn't keep your hands
to yourself, could you?

Excuse me.

You were all over me.

Mr I'm so shy.

I couldn't stop myself.

I want to kiss you
the moment I saw you.

This looks delicious.

You were delicious.

Just eat your food.

Like you would've
kissed me anyway
in front of all those people.

Your mother

would have fainted.

How's it moving in?

Oh too good.

You taught him that.

No, my baby's a natural.

Pity about the food, hey Shanti?

Oh, tasteless.

I didn't even get
one potato in my biryani.

Luckily

Marlin did such
a top job with the wedding.

Now you
sound like Jennifer.

And you wore the same Sari too.

Only thing she looked
like was a stick insect.

That one is like an ironing
board, you know that?

Uhm uhm

Basi, uhm

just check over here
and check what is happening.

Don't touch me.
What are you doing here?

Well, certainly didn't come here
for a haircut.

Well you obviously
came here for something.
Obviously.

Hey, I'm not going
to say this again.
What are you doing here?

Don't rush me. I'll speak
when I'm ready.

You got two minutes before
my pun turns into an afro.

Listen, you just tell
your miserable useless son
to stay away from my daughter.

Excuse me missy, my son has
got taste.

-Don't talk shit man.
-I saw Prishen kissing
Jody at the wedding.

Kissing?

Groping her sticking
his tongue down her throat.

I mean who the hell
does your son think he is?

-Hey, Hey!

If your son wants to mess
with my daughter,
he's going to have me.

Don't come here with your lies.

Why would I come to this place,
of all places, to make up lies
about my own daughter.

Think idiot!

Because my Prishen
tells me everything.

Obviously leaving out all
the juicy bits, isn't he?

You know what why don't you take
yourself and your juicy bits

And voetsek from here!

Fine!

And be careful you don't
trip on that skirt.

Hello ma
who is it you chopping off?

So, you going to gym?

Yeah!

I'm cooking all your favorites.

-All my favorites?
-Yeah.

You know someday
I'll have to teach
your wife all of this.

Plenty of time for that.

Prishen

Love you.
Love you too ma.

Come Shanti.

Love, light, peace.

Love, light, peace.

Where's the buttons
on this phone?

Sorry I do not understand.

Where are the buttons
on this phone?

Hello?

Hello sexy Prishen.

Who you?

I am Simmy, how may I help you?

Oh, okay

please can I see all
the messages that this Jodi girl

from next door
is sending my son?

Thank you,
I can definitely assist.

Are you looking for

A A message.
B a Phone lock.

or C both options?

Stop asking so many questions.

Fat lot of help you are.

I do not understand.

Fat lot of help you are.

I am Simmy, how may I help?

You know what Sivvy, Selby
or whatever your name is

why don't you shut your mouth
and stay away from
my son, you wild thing.

I do not understand.

Stay away
from my son, you wild thing.

Shame man Saris.

This smoke is driving me insane.

Jodi
How can you sit through this?

It's not that bad.

So Jodi
How was lectures today?

Fine.

Can I make you some tea?

Anyway Saris, let me go.

My sugars feeling low.

I need one sweet man.

-Ok bye!
-Ma

Shouldn't you be watching
your blood sugar levels?

Whose body is this?

Mine or yours?

Here, have one sweet.

Add some flavor to your life.

Hmm, so bland this is.

Must be sugar free.

Taste so familiar.

Ma

Where did you get this from?

Jodi's bag.

Not all she got.

Hmm, these taste terrible.

Now I know
what that thing taste like.

Coconut oil.

It's coconut oil!

That's what I said.

Coc-nut-oil!

To Mr. Shy Guy.

LOL.

Lovey?

You deaf or what,
you can't hear the phone ring?

Phone? No, no, no, no.
I never hear no phone.

-What's wrong?
-Nothing strong I mean wrong.

Nothing's wrong.
I'm coming just now.

Just go downstairs and wait
for me I'm coming, I'm coming.

Your rotten daughter thinks
she's already married to my son.

You think that's bad.

I found these in Jodi's bag.

It means they having sex Shanti.

Don't put that thing by me.

Oh my God, my poor son.

Your poor son-your poor son is
a scoundrel, that's what he is.

Hello? I see how
your daughter dresses.
She looks like a damn tramp.

Buying all these
fancy underwear,
carrying condoms in a bag.

And, look at this.
Look at this.
Look at where the J is.

Look! See, it's right
by the thing.

Huh? Sis man.

Your daughter's a witch.

You are a crazy woman,
you know that?

You absolutely lost your mind.
You going looney.
That's what it is.

I don't even know
what she sees in your son.

My son is
the picture of innocence.

Innocence my foot.

Instead of sitting here
blabbing your mouth

have you thought about
the fact that
she could fall pregnant?

Oh my God!

Imagine if that baby
comes out like you.

Oh my gosh.

Or it can turn out like you.

Baby's first words would be
I'm hungry!

Fat jokes, fat jokes.
You still on the fat jokes?

You know what?
I can't take this
anymore, rubbish woman.

Shanti, if you and I don't do
something about this now

your precious Prishen
will have to drop out
of medical school

and be changing stinky nappies.
Is that what you want?

And, you and I
will be sharing a grandchild.

Let's tell Marlin about us.

No way.

Come on I have
to tell someone, I'm dying.

And you want to tell Marlin?

Okay.

What's this?

Open it.

Is it a matching thong?

You are mad.
Just open it.

It's adorable.

Thank you.

It's our song.

When do you leave for Cape Town?

-Is it next semester?
-I'm not going.

What do you mean?

Well I applied
for this last year

and since then
things have changed.

-You can't do this for me.
-I've already said no.

-No, I won't let you.
-It's too late now.

I knew it!

Oh shit!

What do your mothers
think of this?

Hashtag ,
You going to die.

You can't tell anyone about us.

Guys I can't keep
something so big inside me.

Why are you laughing?

Come on babe.
You must be joking Jen?

No, I'm not joking.
This is not a laughing matter.

We need to be more proactive.
You hear all kinds of horror
stories about kids these days.

Ugh.
She needs our support babe.

So you want me
to speak to Jodi about
the birds and the bees?

-Yup!
-You don't think she's too old?

You just have to be
straight up with her.

Okay Is my Chamois ready?

Yeah got it.

Listen, if parents were straight
up and told it like it is

-Yeah?
-they will save
themselves a lot of trouble.

-So you want me to
be straight up with Jodi?
-Uh huh.

Tell it like it is,
hey?

So should I use words like

penetration and so?

Elvis what is wrong with you?

How can you say that?

Listen, you know what
youngsters get up to these days?

Oh

the same thing we
got up to when we were young.

Elvis stop, your mother
is going to see.

So now you are shy of my mother?

Hey, you know if
your dad's back seat
could tell us a few stories.

Come on, babe
listen I'm serious.

I'm really serious,
I'm really worried about her.

Asheel was such a great guy.

He used to go to Temple,
He was so responsible.

Great family.
He was a gem.

Look

Jodi is responsible.
She's a mature person.

She'll make the right decision
when the time is right.

Who knows what
kind of guys out there?

Howzit Dylan.

So, I'm Dylan again?

What wrong bro?

You can't talk?

Yeah, you know it right.

Hello auntie Jennifer.

No, like tomorrow.

The same job bro.

Where she's turning?

Next year.

She got you under?

Who got who under?

No, I'm talking to Dylan man.
His wife is killing him
with the divorce.

Oh Please tell Dylan
he must send my containers.

Hey, you heard
what my wife said?

No, I heard.

Tell her I'll return it--
but maybe tomorrow.

Alright check you Dylan.

Check you Dylan.

No Check you Dylan.

So

did you come up with anything?

Yeah point number one.
Send Jodi to India.

Can you please be serious?

Ow she can be
the next Mother Teresa.

You know that story
about Ronnie's dau--

Well so

Ronnie's daughter, when
they found out about

Can you please stop crunching
and munching all the time?

I can't even hear
myself think.

When they found out
about Ronnie's daughter,
and her boyfriend

they broke his legs.

Why don't you all just move?

I mean you don't
even like Chatsworth.

Alright, we'll move and then

you'll follow us like a little
puppy dog as usual
wherever we go.

Whatever.

Anyway.

Elvis won't leave his mother

and that old bag
will never leave Chatsworth.

Oh ok.

I thought we agreed
to work together?

-I said ok.
-Right

so we need to do this
in a very logical
systematic manner.

Okay.

So

we need to
start thinking clearly

about what
we are going to do.

And well go from there.

What now?

I don't know.

You don't know what?

Ahh I don't know
what you're talking about.

I know what we need to do.

We should make
a list but make a list.

Make a list of
all their likes and dislikes.

And the first one

the first one would be

her ex.

-Ex.
-Asheel.

Hey Shanti

so big he's got.

Shame you
remember auntie Prizzy?

-Hello Auntie.
-How

you forgot me.

You don't remember how I used to
wash your toweling napkins
when you were small?

And that's uncle Cobian.

Howzit?

And this is Diwani.

-Hello.
-Hello.

You know Preggie

the way I used to
wash your napkins
when you were small.

So slow that water
used to come up.

Here you go
everybody, help yourselves.

Oh, let me see
what Jennifer made.

Hmm Jennifer these cupcakes
you made are delicious.

I just quickly
threw them together.

You must give me the recipe.

Jennifer is
too sharp in the kitchen.

She can win MasterChef.

All the Indians
are winning the thing only.

I'll get you a pen and page

so she can write
the recipe for you.

Shanti

this food is too nice.

Wow, this dinner is awesome.
New recipe?

I didn't make it,
compliments to the chef.

Hi aunty Shanti,
I just whipped it up
in five minutes.

Yeah, but you know they say
If a lady can't cook,
then there's no hope for her.

True that Shanti

it's what makes
or breaks a marriage
I always say.

Give me that earphones.
Why are you being so rude?

What happened to him?

He can talk.

You know how
kids are these days.

So, what are you studying?

She's going to be a doctor.

Just like you, same campus.
Tell him. Tell him. Tell him.

I'm first year.

Okay.

Actually I've seen you around.
You're third year right?

Yeah. Hey if you need any help
you should take my number.

Give her your number.
Plus he comes up first
for everything.

He even won a scholarship
to the University of Cape Town.

No way he'll take it
he won't leave his mother.

-Excuse me.
-No wait, wait.

Shanti, give him
some more cheesecake.

Yeah, what's wrong?
Give me your plate
and I'll give you some more.

Ashew.

Hold on, don't go yet.

Why is the group here?

They needed a place to practice
and his mum is ill so
I thought I'd help out.

Jodi help him
to take his stuff to the car.

Come on, go help.

Hey I know what you up to.

What do you mean?

Why you telling everybody

when you bought the thing?

Just imagine.

I'm coming just now.

Prizzy, your stories
are too much hey.

Jennifer how do you
expect me to send him out?

-Just shut up and
think of something.
-You shut up.

Jennifer?

Jennifer?

Lucky that doctor
was wearing a mask.

Full puss came out of my back.

Like choice butter,
that puss was.

Guys, the tea is on its way.

I just want to put
this bin bag out the way.
The fish guts is smelling.

Ah okay.
I'll be back just now.

Ow oh.

Are you okay?

-Yeah my hand just got cramped.
-Let me do it.

Shanti you should
check for Arthritis.

Ok so

-How long until she gets better?
-I don't know

what I would do without her.

Sorry.

Bye.

Hey Jodi

You still smoke.

Only when I'm stressed.

So I see your

daughter didn't waste any time
falling into the arms of the ex.

Can't blame her.

Asheel's quite a hunk.

I'll give him maybe
five or six out of ten.

Hmm really?

Want to know
what I give Prishen?

One.

You know what I'll give Prishen?

One.

Hey your mom

Yeah you know my ma.

What was going on
at home last night?

Pray meeting.

Hi Prishen.

Hey howzit Divani, how are you?

Last night was so much fun.
Oh my God, your mum's
such a great cook.

And your mom really
enjoyed the crab curry.

I'm definitely coming
over for cooking lessons.

Ah you don't need
cooking lessons.
That dessert you made was tops.

Ah so sweet.

They came for dinner last night.
Our moms are old friends.

So you must be the girlfriend?

Uhm

We're best friends.

Oh ok. Let's do lunch some time.

You bring the main course
and I'll organize dessert.

-Bye.
-Bye.

I'll bring the main course,
you bring the dessert.

-Byeee.
-Jodes, come on man.

And I love your mum.
So fake!

You don't even know her.

Well you seem
to know how very well.

So when do I get
to taste your cooking?

You know I can't cook.

Can I actually
have some of that?

You and I make such a good team.

Aw thanks my darling.

Ma, something smells amazing.

-Hi Prishen.
-Howzit Divani.

Divani came to show me
her famous lavender creme Brule.

I mean

Yeah, same thing and then
I'm showing how
to make my fish biryani.

-Ah thank God, I'm starving ma.
-And we just finished
our first one.

And we need
an official taster.

Wait, wait, wait.

Hold it.
You look so cute together,
wait I'll take a picture.

Uhm oh man,
this phone got no buttons.

Why all these phones
got no buttons?

Aunty Shanti, just press here.

No, I don't know
how to use it man.

Ok. never mind.
I'll take a selfie.

So cute you all look.

Hmm

It's great that Divani
and Prishen are spending
more time together.

And the way he's
enjoying Divani's desserts.

He hasn't even
spoken about Jodi.

Does he speak about Jodi?

Because she eats his lunch.

Shanti I need help here.

I'm on the phone

with a customer.

What you say?

She eats his lunch?

Yeah, someone's
got to feed her.

I'm mean she's looking so thin.

Shanti, must I grow four hands
or what or are you coming to
help me here?

I'm coming man!

I got to go,
I'll see you later.

No, no, no!
I'm not coming
to that park again.

You find another place
and you send me the address.

Shanti! Smoke!

Bring the fire extinguisher!

Oh Shit!

-Shanti!
-I'm coming man.

Bloody hell.

In 200 meters
turn left.

Destination on your right.

Oh shit.

This place stinks.

What you getting excited for?

You said I must find a place
where nobody can see us?

Yeah, but everyone
can see me here.

Yeah but it's so busy
and everybody is
doing their own thing.

Plus, who would expect
to see you here?

Good reason too.
Why you brought me here Shanti?

Divani's coming over again
and I needed a few
special ingredients

so I thought I'd kill
two birds with one stone.

You know if my plan wasn't
working so well, I would
leave here right now.

Right now.

Uncle how much
are the chilies?

Ten Rand ma,
special price for you.

But last week it was R8.
What happened?

Taste and buy.
Hot, hot, hot!

I can't believe I'm actually
standing here bargaining
for chili's of all things.

Uhm this you call

you call chilies?

This thing tastes
like cardboard.

-Come on Let's go.
-Just go.

Never mind, take it for R6.

And I want my change.

Thank you ma.

Let's just go.

Here.

Keep the change.

Shanti!

Oh shit!

What's wrong with her?

Ah no.
My friend's just checking
one outfit out.

You got any nice special today?

Not this week but
next we got a lovely--

What's the specials?

Oh Aya

Oh, I see
you bought the whole market.

Hey, get out man.
I'm making pickles.

Aya, my friend is in
the change room
and she might take long.

But I can see you still
got shopping to do, so
why don't you carry on?

No honey
I'll keep you company.

No, Aya.
She might be long.

You, you carry on.

Oh there's your friend.

Aya uhm

This is my friend

Aisha Bibi.

We old school friends.

As-Salaam-Alaikum.

Why what happened?
She can't talk what?

No, uhm

Oh, she had her wisdoms removed.

Oh shame.

If you were friends
together at school

then you must be knowing
my daughter-in-law, Jennifer?

I keep telling Shanti
she would have been
the perfect daughter not for me.

Oh Aya.
Jennifer's not that bad.

She may be cooked in the head

but has she ever let you down?

That's true hey.

I must talk less.

But you know she smokes.

And her dressing

What chop shops
things she wear.

She should dress
like your friend.

I saw Madumbi’s there.
Why you don't
buy some for Jennifer?

I know she liked it
from school days.

Hey, why you talking like that?
Since when do you like her?

No, I don't like her but
I'm just saying you know,
I know you got a good heart

and I know you got place
in that heart for Jennifer.

Hey she must
make space for me.

You know I had to
come here by taxi.

Where is she going
to bring me and come here?

But just now I can go
anywhere where I want to.

You know why?

Elvis is going
to buy Jodi a new car.

Jen

Jennifer.

Listen.

Look.

I told you I'm in charge
of the car department.

Okay.

I just haven't found
the right one that's all.

What?

A Beamer?
Are you mad or what?

No uhm ah Dylan.

No, no. You're not laughing.

No he's crying.

He's probably thinking about
how his wife used to
nag him and stuff.

Okay look
I really have to go.

I love you too.

Okay bye.

-Shut it. Shut your mouth.
-Oh I love you too,
I love you too Jennifer.

-Shut it. Idiot.
-I love you baby,
oh I love you so much baby.

Ah shut up, get out!
I can't wait to see you, that's
why I'm calling you ten times.

I love you!
I love you!

You going to
get me in trouble bro.

I mean really. I'm more of
a classic guys like a Golf GTi.

-Yeah you're a Golf man
-Yeah.

Lower the suspension,

And after the springs you're
going to supe the whole cab.

Gold bumpers like your teeth.
Yeah!

the speakers and subwoofers
from what's your friend name?

Tiny!

Pump up the bass.

Asheel, used to call you JoJo.

Yeah I need
to change those.

Your mother's Psycho.

I know.

Ugh

Ah congrats babe.
Aw thank you.

I can't believe
your dad bought you a BMW.

Actually my mum chose.

Ah, that makes more sense.

Oh!

I can't wait to hear this one.

It's for the condom dispenser.

Really?

-Student Council Duty.
-Is that what they
call it now a days?

You know,
I fill the girls toilets.

Oh right!

And here I thought
it was my lucky day.

Shame.

You have a
long wait ahead of you.

Yeah I know.

Anyway Let's take this baby for
a ride. I'm driving.

Come on Elvis, get that
grumpy look off your face.

Buying the car
was my department.

I was going to choose it.

But she loved this one babe.

What's the rush?

Child needed a car.

For what?

It just doesn't make sense.

Did you see how
excited she was today?

You went over my head
and played your own cards.

Ah calm down Elvis,
when I've done you a favor.

You've been hunting for
a car for over a year now love.

You just don't get it do you?

And where are you
going to park the damn thing?

And he drinks too much.

He came down the stairs and
rolled all the way to
the bottom of the staircase.

Instead of helping him,
we were laughing.

We couldn't help it.

That bloody fellow deserves it.
He spends all his wages
on drinking.

Hey, you too cool
to drive in my car today?

Shit.

I just have to drop off
some stuff for Asheel's mum.

Oh Asheel's mum.

Come on Prishen,
you know his mum is sick.

Look

let's just meet for lunch.

Normal spot?

I can't.

I'm helping Divani
with some studies.

You've got to be kidding me.

Jodi, my mom offered.
What was I supposed to say?

No I get it.

Main course and dessert.

Come on,
you're being ridiculous look.

Let me just come with you.

I'm taking Asheel
to the mechanic.

Wow!

What are you
trying to say here?

I don't know

Did he choose as well?
Huh JoJo?

This place is too lovely.

Yeah, it is isn't it?

Elvis is a member here.

Of course I introduced him
to golf, now he's addicted.

Preggie plays golf too.

Preggie plays golf?

Yeah, he plays
with one of his friends.

-Are you ladies okay?
-We are good thanks.

What if someone
recognizes me here?

Don't be silly.
I can assure you nobody's
going to know you here.

-Hey Shanti what are you doing?
Put that away.
-What?

Don't bring stuff
like that here.

-Oh.
-Come on.

Two please.

Come one drink up.

Listen

I was thinking you and I
did good because I saw them
this morning and we managed

to bring them right to the edge,
we just need something
to tip them over.

What you thinking about
because Divani--

Forget Divani.
Divani is too slow. We need
someone to speed things up.

-That's what we need.
-Like who?

-Come with me.
-Wait, wait, wait.

-Just trust me. Come!
-But you just ordered drinks?

-Come with me, I'll come back.
-Okay. Okay.

Can I help you
with something?

Hmm, you the only one here?

Yeah, day shift.

Probably do allot
better at night.

-Jennifer you're terrible.
-Shhh!

So
two ladies huh?

Well, I guess there's
a first time for everything.

Don't be an idiot.
We just here because we looking
for someone to do some acting.

Oh yes I can do that!

In fact
I'm acting right now.

What do you mean?

My real name is actually

Mervin!

Wow Jennifer, she's a man!

-Drive man, drive!
-I'm going, I'm going.

And you thought Jodi
becoming a nun was a bad idea.

But I wouldn't have
allowed that boy

I mean that prostitute
anywhere near my son!

Oh come on they
are just acting Shanti.

Can I get you ladies a refill?

-No, no, no.
-Hmm two please.

Double.

You know what we need?
We need a damn good actress.

Oh my gosh
I don't mean to be rude.

Are you guys movie
producing or something?

-No.
-No.

You said you need an actress,
I'm a drama student.

Oh?

Really?

I'm a 3rd year Thespian.

Sis!

Sorry are you free
tonight by any chance?

No, but we can meet
in my class later on.

And up.

To the sides.

To the sides.

And shake.

And up.

Okay, great thanks everyone.

That's it for today.
I'll see you guys next week.

-Hi.
-Hi!

-There you go.
-Great!

Can't believe
you wrote a script.

You so organized.

Thanks.

Says here that my
character's name is Chantel.

Can I be Stacy?

Stacey Pillay.
I've always liked that name.

Whatever.

So, what kind of delivery
are you guys looking for?

Film and very real
or TV and slightly
melodramatic or

Full on theatre which
I suggest you go for.

You the drama student.

Well, just as long as you know
I'm the director.

Yes, she's a very good director.

She got all
the drama awards in school.

Well that's because you
made the most amazing costumes.

You know how much fun we
used to have designing that?

Those were my
best childhood memories.

Mine too.

So much fun.
So enjoyed myself.

Prishen, where you going?

You want some tea?

Ma, where did you get this?

I found it on the road.

I think it fell off
the bin truck.

Someone must have
thrown it out.

I'm just stitching the ear
and then I'm going to pop it
in the washing machine.

It's so dirty.

I'm going for a drive.

Prishen

don't be late.

Mom, I'm going.

Bye darling.

-Wish Marlin for me.
-Okay.

Hello.

Now, now.
I said now you idiot.

Start walking.

Excuse me.

Does Prishen live here?

No, he lives next door.

Couldn't remember
if he said 38 or 40.

-It's 40.
-Look can you
give this to him from me?

I'm kind of in a hurry.

Hey Jodi!

Why you so late?
What happened to you?

Where were you last night?

-Like you really care?
-I'm not in the mood
to play games Prishen.

Games? What kind of sick game
are you playing?

What the hell
are you talking about?

Asheel,
This song is forever.

Oh, come on!

How did you get this?

You know where I got that.

Are you really making
this about me, huh?

Where's the teddy
bear I gave you?

And what about your Divani, huh?

You and her were probably
examining each other
while she fed you cupcakes.

Yeah, so what if we were?

Well at least Asheel
didn't pretend to love me.

-Then go back to him!
-I will!

If you don't go to
the bathroom now
I'm going to sort you out.

Prishen.

Wake up Prishen,
you are going to be late.

I am going to warn you.

Are you listening to me?

My child is not eating
and he's not talking to anyone.

It's normal behavior
after a breakup.

Are we bad mothers?

We're not bad mothers.

I'm also feeling lousy Shanti.
They are children.

But we have to step in.
You can see how wrong
they are for each other?

Preggie is worried and concerned
he's going to find out.

How is he going to find out?

No one is going to
find out and they can't.

Maybe we should just tell them
before they all find out.

No, no Shanti, listen to me

we almost at the finish line
you can't cave in now.

Are you listening to me?

Look at me!

Shanti, look at me!

No one can know about this.
I am warning you.

So just zip it.

Hey babes what happened?
No chows?

Just one day

Just one day I don't cook
and you having a heart attack.

No, no I'm just asking.

Every day I cook.

Every day I do everything.

I wash the clothes.

I clean this house.

I don't just do
everything for you.

I do everything
for this entire neighborhood.

What more you expect from me?

Twenty to the dozen,
she's smoking.

Like a chimney.

The way she's carrying on
we'll all get cancer.

I won't have a chance
to get to 80.

She's making sure of that.

Outside only.

Yeah backyard.

One way!

What's your problem?

Saris, I'll call you back.

You talking to me?

I spoke to Asheel
today on campus.

She told him I want to
get back together with him.

And that it was
pining for him.

Jen is this true?

You should be
ashamed of yourself.

Did you hear how
she speaks to me?
Did you hear that?

I did this for your own good.

For me? For me?

-What a load of shit!
-Hey!

-Watch your mouth.
Don't you dare speak
-to me in that tone.

I will not tolerate
such disrespect in my house.

Take you stupid car back.

And FYI

Asheel and I broke up
because he cheated on me.

Many times.

Hey, what you been up to?

What you been up to?

Look in my eyes
and speak the truth.

Jodi?

Jodes?

Are you ok?

Hey Prish

I swear if Pirates don't beat
Chiefs today I am going to
shave my head bald.

What happened?
Someone died, huh?

Dad, do you remember
that Scholarships to
the University of Cape Town?

Yeah!

I'm rethinking it.

Why, what happened?

I think it's what's
best for me right now.

It's just

before it was my dream
to be a doctor.

It was your dream
for me to be a doctor.

Making you guys happy
and proud is what
I've always try to do.

Look Prishen, I'm just asking
because I'm concerned, you know.
You were happy.

I am happy.

We've got friends
and family there and

I won't be alone at

Well I mean

Cape Town is not far but

it's not exactly near.

I really want to go dad.

Hmm, okay.

Please support me on this one.

Okay.

Thanks dad.

What happened?

He was happy, he was so sure.

My sons going to leave me.

Actually going to leave me.

I mean what happened?

It's all my fault.

Why?

Why is it your fault?

I could just
strangle Jennifer right now.

It's bloody sickening bro?

Can you believe it ey?

They bought that
ridiculous car so that
they couldn't travel together.

And they're mothers,
these are their kids.

Do you know what's so swak bro?

My own daughter couldn't
come talk to me about Prishen.

Yeah I think she was skrik.

Just like the two of us.

What do you mean the two of us?

You know when
Shanti and I got married

we promised each other
when it came to
family and children

we will never keep secrets
from each other.
Now look what she's done.

We can't let them
get away with this bro.

Damn right!
What you got in mind?

Oh, I got something in mind bro.
I got something in mind.

You start.

No you start.
You were the one who
took Preggie in the first place.

-Ok I'll start.
-No I'll start.

See Jodi

we found out
about your relationship.

The one you were keeping
a secret from your parents.

Just get to the point Jen!

And then we met and
decided that your
relationship was wrong.

You two decided?

Well, we had to do something

to stop the two of you
from making more mistakes.

It's our job
as parents to guide you.

Oh I love this version of it.

Well, we had to do
something Elvis, at the rate

the two of them were going at it
behind the wedding at the hall.

What you was doing
behind the hall?

I was there and I realized

things were getting out of
control between the two of them.

And then we did
you all a favor and we

found your new partners
and then we broke you up

and now we here to tell you

now you all know.

Do them a favor?

This

Ma just be quiet for God's sake.
We can't deal with
your dramatics right now.

Jen?

Anyway

if there are no other questions.

nobody has
anything else to say

I think we can all adjourn.

Is that it?

Huh?

Is that it?

You two have
nothing more to say?

Let's just go home.

You know you are unreal.
The both of you are unreal.

Don't you raise
your voice when
you talking to me.

Jen, just be quiet please.

Let's just go home.

Ma

Jodi come with me.

Prishen?

Ma just leave us alone.

You just stop putting
your nose in the business.

But we had no choice.

What do you mean
you had no choice?

-We had to do something.
-Well, you have caused chaos!

You know what,
I can't do this anymore.
I'm just going to find my child.

-Shanti!
-Well we caused chaos.
At least we did something

which is more than
I can say for the two of you.

Yeah, we gave them support.
We didn't cause
all this nonsense.

Support? You supporting her
when she is so
ungrateful with that boy.

What do you mean that boy?
Listen, you're just as bad as
her Jennifer, just move.

Prishen wait, Prishen!

You can't go Prishen, wait!

Shanti, just let them go please.
What's your problem?

I'm sorry Prishen.

Shanti just leave him alone.
What wrong with you?

Prishen please.
Please, I'm sorry.

Let them go.

-I'm sorry.
-Let them go.

You!

You Jennifer,
it's all your fault.

You're stupid plan
backfired on us.

No, I don't think I can
take all the credit for it.

You came to me first.

That is so typical Shanti.

I feel like I'm
in high school again

Hey look everyone!
Betrayal is staring me
in the face all over again.

Can you two just stop?

Oh my God you still on that?

He didn't even like you.

Okay Shanti, let's go home.

He was my high cool crush.

You were the only
one I told about it.

He asked me out.
What was I supposed to say?

You were supposed to say NO!

How many times
must I say I'm sorry?

You were my best friend!
I trusted you!

Yeah, but you didn't
give me a chance to explain.

You don't deserve a chance.

You treated me like trash.

Because you are trash.

Hey Jennifer, that's not fair.

Guys, guys. Let's just stay out
of this please.

And you had to
fall pregnant, didn't you?

And get him to marry you?

Wait Jenn are you talking
about Pregs here?

Rubbing it in my
bloody face every single day.

Hey bro

Why didn't you
tell me about this?

Hey guys, I know nothing
about the story here.

Let me tell you
something else Shanti.

That product of your pregnancy
is a thorn in my bloody flesh.

Don't talk about
my child that way.

I will talk about you child
any damn well--

No you won't!

-Hey!
-Yes I will because he's
an offspring of a cow.

What did you call my wife?

Why are you shouting?

Because she's attacking
every member of my family.

A cow? A cow?

You are a pathetic
excuse for a mother.

That's not fair okay?

You can't even cook!

Well at least
I saved my daughter

from having a fat embarrassing
mother-in-law like you.

Jennifer you don't
shut your mouth.

What you going
to do bro?

-You control your wife.
-What you going to do--

Just control your wife.

Aya!

I should have told
you about Asheel.

And that he was
trying to get me back.

Seeing you guys together

it made me really jealous.

You know I would have
never cheated on you.

I should have never
let Divani get in my head.

Let's forget all of this
and let's start over.

Our mother's will make
our lives a nightmare.

So what's the point?

Please

I love you Jodi.

I love you too.

But it's not that simple is it?

I mean

it was so easy to break us up.

Doesn't that say something?

It says a hell of a lot about
the two of them,
but we can make this work.

No we won't.

They'll make sure it won't work.

What you trying to say?

We can still be friends.

I don't want to be
friends with you Jodi.

Prishen I am sorry.

Please

Please just
take me home.

It was

it is just a
high school infatuation babe.

The fight wasn't even about him.

She was my other half.
We were inseparable and

she betrayed me.

You spend so much
of your energy fighting.

What?

First, it's my mother.

Then Jodi.

Then Shanti.

Now me.

When is enough, enough?

When the fighting doesn't
mean anything anymore.

You just

spend so much time on it.

You want me to
just forget everything?

What she did to me?

I just want you to be happy.

Hey, you blind or what?

The hole is there.

Pregs.

Howzit Cuzzy?

-Look I'm sorry what I said?
-No, no!

I should be the one apologizing.

Sorry bro.

How's that jaw of yours?

Hey you got one

helluva right hook, huh.

I'm sorry bro!

You know

when dad

first took me
to meet his parents.

I was so excited.

But I realized
so quickly that

I was never going
to be good enough

for their family.

I tried.

I tried so hard

but they didn't make it
any easier for me.

But your dad and I

your dad and I, we knew we were
soulmates we

we knew we belonged together.

He had to fight so hard for me.

Those were
the toughest years for me.

For us.

I didn't realize
I was doing
the same thing to you.

I thought I was
so right about everything.

But I was completely wrong.

-I'm so sorry.
-I'm so sorry too.

We should have
never stopped them.

Arsevan!

I said crimson red
not blood red.

I don't know where this man
learned his basic colors.

He's such an ass, this one ey.

Arsevan.

I gave you the CD.
Are you in charge
of the music right?

So you play the CD
when I cue you.

You got one shot
to get it right ok?

You understand?

Bet he can't even speak.

Hey Jodi!

Did you hear that?
Yeah.

Ok so we've got catering.

We got sound.
We got music.
We got entertainment, decor.

I keep feeling like
we forgotten something.

Oh shit!

But why you
rushing me like this?

I never even
said goodbye to all my friends--

Aww
They going to bring you back, ma.

And they were just about
to serve the lunch too.

We got food at home.

What food you all got at home?

Oh okay!

You two are looking very nice.

Thanks!
Like two twins what happened?

Buy one, get one free?

Thanks for the honor.

Aunty Jennifer and aunt Shanti
are going to do a special toast.

Wow!

Aya's 80th birthday.

I'm still here surprise.

You know ladies and gentlemen.

Life is short.

And we often make
mistakes along the way.

But if there's anything
Aya has taught us

is that when you
find someone you love

hold on to them.

But I never said that.

Aya

we love you

we cherish you

and we want to
thank you for being such
an inspiration to all of us.

You talking like
like I already died.

Here's to Aya.

When you get to her age

only happiness matters.

Cheers!
Cheers!

And before we
bring out the cake

it's time for
the lady of the moment
herself to say a few words.

Aya!

Testing
Testing 1 2

Welcome to one and all.

By your mouth.

I'm so used to talking
on the phone.

My heart is so happy today.

You know.

These two are right.

Life

is too short.

And I'm so happy

that these two are friends
again.

You know when
you find something so special.

And something more beautiful
than you can ever imagine.

And you know it's going
to bring you so much happiness.

You simply have to
give it a second chance.

Enjoy yourselves.

And take a photo with me.

I won't be here next year.

Aww!

Thank you.

Prishen.

Arsevan.

I'm not married..

Everybody put
your hands together.

Here's a special dance for Aya.

Yes, we live in this place
called Chatsworth.

You know, at any time
when you walk here

people are always
greeting one another.

And always making friends.

Yeah, the government
took us and put us here.

But we made it our home.

The houses are so close.

Why I must lie?

You can smell
what our neighbor is cooking.

But eventually
we all become like one family.

That's Chatsworth for you.
