Original subtitles

Yeah, good one, Kayle.

Cheaters!

-Auntie Miems! -Let's go!

Show them.

And... go.

Two words.

First word.

Paint.

-Up and down. -Cut!

Colours, colour.

-Colour. -Colour.

Okay.

Guys!

Auntie, start with the second word.

Yeah, guys. Say it.

Let's start with the second word.

Can I say? Can I just say?

Can we pause for a second?

Time! Time.

Thank goodness.

Yellow submarine.

Oh, okay.

-The Beatles! -Yeah.

Of course, The Beatles.

Are you colour blind?

-It looks like it. -Yes, Auntie, they are.

Hello! Yellow Submarine.

The Beatles, as in the insect.

And a beetle is... black.

My turn.

Easy.

Okay.

Oh, Tjaart.

-Oh, oh, Oscar! -Yes, yes.

The Oscars, yes.

There's just a "The".

Dad, I promise. I'm going to be on the radio.

How cool is that?

About the rugby field I'm building for special children.

I'll still do that.

Okay?

Anyway, it'll be on Noordvaal FM just after two

if you want to listen.

Please listen.

I'll ask them to play your favourite Koos Kombuis song, okay?

Please listen.

Hello?

Love you too, Dad.

Kisses.

I know what you're going to ask.

"Gosh, Flip. A button-up shirt, tie, and a jacket".

What, is it your 100th game in the world cup of life?

Kind of, yes.

Yes, they begged me to be a guest on the radio.

Guest of honour.

And yes, I know no one will see the jacket,

but they'll hear it.

They'll hear it.

Oh, no. I don't vape.

I mean, I vape, but I don't vape-vape.

A friend forgot it at my place at a braai

so I had a little drag...

and another drag...

But I'll stop when it's finished.

Yeah.

No one here knows.

I hide it well.

I don't do drugs.

I really don't.

Flip Bosman.

Rassie Erasmus.

Eben Etzebeth.

Ox.

The greedy guy greets everyone.

Shut up, Tjaart!

-What are you doing? -Sorry, am I bothering you?

Sorry.

No, no, carry on.

I'm just warming up my voice.

I'm warming up my voice for the radio.

There it is.

Flip, are you going to be on the radio?

Noordvaal FM.

-No! -Why?

Joubert, they...

They asked and asked-- Begged, actually.

So I said, "Okay, Noordvaal FM".

88.8!

This afternoon after two, okay.

"I'll do your little show.

Just stop harassing me!"

Why do they want to talk to you?

About the rugby field I'm going to build?

Does one build a rugby field?

Wait, is that still happening? I thought it was a joke.

Q, I don't joke about special people.

Not anymore.

And yes, the rugby field will be built.

Or will be--

Made? Installed?

Installed. It'll be installed.

Okay, then what's the plan with the jar?

Oh, it'll eventually be installed!

Hey, guys. A little respect, please.

Our fearless leader is going to be on the radio.

It's a big deal.

A round of applause is in order.

Thank you, Tjaart, my loyal slave.

You can join me this afternoon.

Oh, yes!

Suck it!

This afternoon. Sit, Tjaart.

Suck it... later.

So, if something urgent comes up, I'll be in my office.

If any sounds bother you,

put your earphones in because I'm doing this for...

you guys!

I don't listen to the radio.

No, give me the natural sounds of industrial Klerksdorp.

It's beautiful.

Joke about a radio? Okay.

What's the last thing that went through Diana's head?

The radio!

Are you vaping?

No, no, no.

-Emma! -No, no, no.

I'm not, I'm not.

I'm vaping now, but I don't vape-vape.

Jeez, sneaky.

-Okay, okay, okay. -In the kitchen.

-It's-- -Haven't you heard of popcorn lungs?

I haven't vaped long enough for popcorn lungs.

It's bad.

It's worse than cigarettes.

Jeez, Emma!

What?

It doesn't suit you.

Yeah, I wanted to quit anyway.

-Come on. -It's not...

It's...

-not a big deal. -Bad.

It's bad.

Just a shame it's so damn nice.

What the hell?

Are you serious?

-What on earth? -Don't let anyone catch you, okay?

-You'll get a warning. -Oh, no, no, no.

No one catches me vaping.

Oh, is that so?

I'm actually a heavy vaper.

In the office, yes.

But I don't vape-vape.

Well...

game on.

The floor is yours.

Okay.

Okay.

Jacket, jacket.

Armour me.

And your number, please.

-076 5-- -For the form.

Are you nervous?

No, why would I be?

Because it's radio, bud.

Thousands of people will hang on your every word.

I couldn't do it. I'll weld in front of a thousand people,

but this is a different story.

Thanks, Tjaart. Now I'm nervous.

Hello, hello!

-Hey! -I'm the DJ.

Flip Bosman. People just call me Flip.

Dean John.

Bloody hell! Is that what DJ stands for?

No.

We're setting up. Are you both talking?

No, no, no. I never know who's listening.

Do want a bunch of angry girls to pitch up here?

No, only this guy.

-Only me. Only me. -Great.

Okay, take five and we'll chat shortly.

-Okay. -Nothing formal, just casual.

-Nice. -That's what every girl says to me.

Hey, can I put in a song request?

-We'll chat later, Frik. -No...

Will you tell him it's Flip?

Yes.

I wrote it down. Flip.

I've got that.

So, what's your name?

Chantelle.

I'll count to ten and then you give me your number.

No, thank you.

That's very nice.

Oh, guys!

Tjaart says Flip is about to go live.

A bird... in the office!

What?

What? I don't see anything.

It... flew away.

So, how did you get here?

We turned left in Church street and then right into--

Morning, morning, Klerksdorp!

Morning, morning--

You're listening to Noordvaal FM!

People, we have angels walking among us on this planet.

We'd like to thank Deluxe Processed Meats

-for the rugby field at Sarel Brand-- -No, no, no.

It's not Deluxe Process Meats. It's the Flip Bosman Rugby Field.

-Do it again. -We are live.

Yes, but do it right.

People, we have a live wire behind the mic this afternoon.

I apologise and speak under correction.

It's the Flip Bosman Rugby Field.

So, Flip.

Are you building this rugby field with your own money?

Yes, we're currently planning the building process.

And it's not for the lack of trying, you know?

I approached DPM,

but corporate are cautious about who they associate with.

In the 90's, it was AIDS,

but lately, cancer is all the rage.

So, there's a fun-run for cancer,

and all the money goes to that,

and to be honest, I haven't seen any cancer guys running.

-Or women. -Or woman... or children.

I see a lot of bald heads,

but I never know whether it's cancer or lice, you know?

So, yes. I won't lie, I miss AIDS.

So, are you saying that DPM

doesn't want to be associated with special children?

Could be.

I don't know. I'm not their spokesman.

I feed the people.

Yes, I feed people polony and other meats...

Not that polony isn't meat.

-Polony is meat. -Yes, polony is meat.

But let's stick to the subject.

Yes, I'm building the rugby field myself.

Well, what you're doing for us is wonderful, Flip.

And thank you for coming.

-Is that it? -Next we have Bernice West with...

"Do it, baby. Do it".

But that song's old.

Can I request one?

It's too late, buddy! It's already loaded.

Here we go!

Koos Kombuis' "Bicycle--"

Jarryd, please get these people out of here.

-Thank you. -Oh, hell.

Flip, Ayanda's calling me.

Do you think it's something I said?

Hello?

Ayanda, that's very loud.

And it's in Zulu.

Oh, you're screaming.

She's screaming in Zulu.

Wow, Auntie. Your computer is...

Good grief.

Jeez, you must take it for a service.

Yes, I will.

Chips, here comes the fish.

Ayanda, big boss.

You went on the radio

and said we don't want to get involved with special needs kids.

Do you know how that makes us sound?

I'll tell you.

Like we don't want to give special needs kids a rugby field.

But...

you don't want to give special needs kids--

Flip, you're on thin ice.

Sorry, but I just told the truth.

It's all that radio guys' fault. He was damn rude.

Yes, and way too cocky for a ginger.

He wouldn't even play Koos Kombuis. Who won't play Koos Kombuis?

Me. I don't care for Koos Kombuis.

We are getting hate-mail,

and threats to be cancelled, Flip.

You can't cancel polony.

Yeah, Listeriosis couldn't even do that.

You have left us with no other choice.

Now, we have to build the bloody rugby field.

You're a genius.

Ayanda, that's great news!

Guys!

Head office is in.

They'll help build the rugby field.

-We're building a rugby field! -We're building a rugby field!

Sorry!

Sorry, this is not a good thing, people.

What?

We didn't plan for this in the budget.

And to be honest, we'll probably have to make cuts

from your side of the company.

So, good luck.

Just shows you.

You can score a try and get a red card in one game.

Guys.

We're going to build a rugby field.

Flip...

-come on, man! -Someone will lose their job

because you're forcing them to build a rugby field.

Not true, the bad publicity did it, not me, so...

It's unfair that our jobs are in jeopardy

because you spoke crap on radio.

One of you are getting fired.

-Tjaart, you also work here. -They'll never fire me.

I cost them basically nothing.

Tjaart, you were at the station with him.

You could've stopped him.

We should've stopped your mom wanting to get pregnant, Kayle.

-So shut up. -Okay, listen.

Look at it this way.

This is an opportunity for one of you to sacrifice your job

to build a rugby field for special kids.

Any volunteers?

Anyone?

No one!

Wow!

Selfish.

Very.

Nobody can afford to lose their job.

This is serious, man.

Okay, calm down.

You guys don't have to worry.

Oh, so can you guarantee that none of us will get fired?

Yes, yes, you have to guarantee that we'll keep our jobs.

Come on, Flip. You have to guarantee.

Okay, guys.

It's all just a misunderstanding. I'll sort this out.

I'll sort this out!

Tjaart, get my jacket.

And I'll sort this out for you quickly.

Easy peasy. One, two, three, block yourself.

Tjaart, come on.

Noordvaal FM, are you ready?

Here we go!

Let me help.

What's wrong with you?

-I'm warming your voice up. -It doesn't work like that.

Okay, sorry. Okay, what's the plan?

Sometimes, a mistake can only be rectified by going back

-to where the mistake was made. -Yes.

-Scene of the crime. -Yes.

So I'm going back on the radio to sort this out.

Sort it out.

And I promised my dad they'll play Koos' song, and they will.

Koos Kombuis!

-Rock and roll! -There's some traffic.

Show me that big smile.

Move, Auntie!

She's got those AWK b--

What's wrong with you?

It's vintage Koos.

-No, sir. -Joubert.

Yes, yes, yes.

No, I'm looking at it. It's right in front of me.

No, for real. It says next week Friday.

I am quite sure.

Okay, sir.

Absolutely.

No, it was a pleasure speaking to you.

Is it 2-1?

Dammit, she's in the lead.

You think you know someone and the next thing,

they whip out a vape and kick your arse.

Park here.

Okay, Flippa.

Your voice is warmed up,

you look incredible...

I feel incredible.

-Do you feel incredible? -Yeah.

Okay, but I'm not saying anything if they ask me.

No, no, I know.

Call Ayanda.

Tell her to tune in.

The whole office. They must tune in.

Flip, you'll strain yourself.

-I won't, I won't. -You'll be out of breath.

-Hello, Chantelle. -Hello, guys.

I need to talk on the radio urgently.

How much do those live-feed ads cost?

-Sir, that's not how it works. -Here's R200. I want five minutes.

-Sir, sit down. I'll find someone-- -No, we don't have time for that.

The world must hear what he has to say.

It's Noordvaal FM. The world won't hear--

People's jobs are on the line. And polony too.

Do you want polony's blood on your hands?

Tjaart, don't-- There isn't blood in polony. It's...

You know what?

I've been here before, so...

-But-- -The pink is dye.

Guys, please--

-My voice is warmed up. Don't worry. -Come on, boys.

I know what I'm doing.

-Can you please-- -I've been here before.

-We're going to ads in five minutes. -I'll only be five minutes.

-Chill out, chill out. -People pay for advertisements.

I wanted to give you money,

-but you didn't want it. -Please.

Women in the workplace have special--

I literally need a minute or two.

-Sorry, sorry. -Sorry.

Hey, leave those buttons.

Leave it.

-Ladies and gentleman. Dad. -Get out of here.

Hello, Dad.

I'm so sorry, okay.

I made a huge mistake.

This is Flip Bosman from Deluxe Processed Meats.

The company will be paying for the rugby field,

along with me, Flip Bosman.

So please don't stop eating polony.

Listeners, I apologise.

We will get back to our discussion about women's safety--

This is a lot more important than women's safety.

Sorry, it's special children. It's more important than women.

Except maybe special women.

Special women...

-Flip, please-- -DJ Dean John, please.

There was a misunderstanding.

Deluxe Processed Meat loves special children.

And normal children. All children. And grown ups. Everyone.

And they are going to pay for the rugby field.

And now everything's better.

Someone at the office has to be fired to make place in the budget and...

It doesn't sit right with me, but that's above my pay-grade.

So, Deluxe Processed Meat

loves special children more than they love their own staff.

So, everything's better and has been resolved.

And here's Koos Kombuis with "Bicycle without a lock".

I bring you flowers.

I give you pleasure.

I lend you my bicycle without a lock.

Love you, Dad.

I know it's late.

And your parents are asleep.

But I just had to tell you that I love you.

I love you like the Cape.

Yes, Dad, I'm sorry.

They said they'd play it later, so...

Hello?

Dad--

Your dad keeps hanging up on you.

He's very busy.

Did you guys listen?

You see? I said I'd sort it out.

Sir, Ayanda's waiting for you.

This day is getting a bit much.

-Here you go-- -Tjaart.

Ayanda!

It's good to see you again.

There we go.

Everything's sorted out.

DPM's looks good. I look good. The future looks...

No, it doesn't.

You've put me in a really difficult position, Flip.

And if it was up to me, you'd be the one to lose your job.

Now what?

Because...

first you say you don't want to be involved in the rugby field.

Then you say, "Cool, we'll be involved,

but someone has to be fired".

I was literally telling the truth.

Can you stop talking about company business on the radio?

-Can you do that? -Oh.

Okay, so that's what I've done wrong.

I understand.

Sorry, neh?

But everything is sorted out.

No, it's not.

-It is. -It's not.

Because now, I can't not build the rugby field.

And I can't fire someone to make space for it in the budget.

Oh.

Oh, yes...

It's a tight spot.

-How can I help? -You...

You're either very smart, or incredibly stupid.

Yeah.

Yes.

Oh, must I choose one?

Keep an eye on your emails.

We're tightening the screws around here.

Call me your handyman.

Our screws are...

Unbelievable.

Something they don't teach you in business school.

Sometimes, you have to act smart

by acting stupid...

to be smart.

Act stupid...

smartly.

Flip Bosman.

-Hello, hello. -Hello.

I'd like to request a song, please.

We don't really do requests during this show.

No, no. Please, man.

It's Koos Kombuis' "Bicycle without a lock".

Oh, for f-- sake.

I... hey!

Dean John!

Dean John!

F--!

Oops.

-What is this? -Can you believe what--

-Did you get that e-mail? -Yes, yes. It's time management.

-Look at the time management sheets. -For us?

Dammit, Flip!

-No ways in hell. -Great, Flip!

Uh-uh!

What's this email about time management sheets

that Ayanda just sent?

Is this because of your radio thing?

It's standard procedure.

But sir, I've worked here for 40 years.

It has never been standard procedure.

It's a new standard procedure, okay?

Okay, listen. It was either that or someone gets fired.

You know what? I'm sick of your moaning.

I go on national radio and no one congratulates me.

-Local radio. -You can stream it nationally.

I go back on radio to save your butts and no one thanks me.

Can't I do anything right?

Emma, swallow that smile.

Fill in the forms. Do your work. Easy as that.

Thank you.

-Flip, I said-- -Tjaart, crawl out of my arse.

Is that smoke?

-Fire! -Oh, man!

-Fire in the office! -Get the extinguisher.

Quickly, quickly!

Everyone stay calm!

Get the extinguisher!

No, Tjaart, stop, stop!

Joubert's in there!

Joubert's in flames!

Stop, stop, stop!

What the hell are you doing?

Joubert?

There was a fire.

I could smell a fire...

so I checked it out.

But it's been extinguished.

Good grief.

I saved your lives.

And the winner of the vape-in-the-office competition...

Emma Engelbrecht.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

-There's a bit of something on you. -Yeah.

I'm going to wash these memories away.

Vape.

What? It's...

I won.

No, don't vape, Emma. It doesn't suit you.

Sorry, can I have a pull?

It's very unprofessional to vape in the office, so...

Thank you.

This is good stuff.

Hey, Dad.

I tried everything to get them to play that song on the radio,

but they don't know what they're doing.

Anyway...

here it is.

I love you, Dad.

Call me when you're not busy.

Well, I guess that's over.

Really?

Yeah!

I don't vape-vape.

You don't believe me.

I don't care that you don't care.

I don't care that you don't care.
