A battle of who takes to the throne next has led Thuthuka and Nqubeko to this dark place. After finding out that Nqubeko has been sleeping with Fakazile, Thuthuka decides to confront him but it all ends in a tragic way.

Siphamandla warns MaMzobe against sitting on the throne, but a determined MaMzobe goes ahead with it.

MaMzobe makes a dramatic entrance at the Mgungundlovu branch and demands Siphamandla to step down, but she has her hitmen point a gun at Siphamandla.

Now that Sebenzile's mother is also present, she teams up with Hlabangani's and they head over to Phungula's home in hopes of coming back with their son. But, because Phungula is so unaware of the issue at hand, he gets his gun and chases them away.
