Robert decides to not go through with the demand from Mdu. As he does that, Mdu attempts to get rid of Alakhe, but the police intersect in time and arrest him. Detective Khalipha calls Sarah telling her to tell Robert to abort the mission as they have found Mdu and Alake, and Alakhe is safe. They are too late as just as he is about to answer the call, Donald arrives to help his father finish the mission to save his son.

Mpumi tells Donald she is leaving for New York and taking Alakhe with her. He does not react favourably, but she tells him that her mind is made up and that he can visit if he wants to. Meanwhile, Puleng is back to her old tricks, trying to win Mandla back since her gravy train with Papi has dried up.

A distraught Dennis pays Robert a visit after he is exposed. He keeps asking Robert why he threw him under the bus instead of protecting him. Robert reminds him that as the minister of police, he has to do his job, and someone has to pay; it just so happens that it is Dennis' time to pay.

Mpumi gets the test results back which confirm that Alakhe is not Mohau's son. She confronts him with the news, and Mantoa is so happy, but Mohau is visibly disappointed. She later tells NJ that she loves Donald and Alakhe and intends to fight for her family. That is until she gets served with divorce papers.
