Sarah continues to tell Robert how bad a father he is for arresting Donald. She is upset that he may be using the whole situation for his own political gain, to one day become the president. Robert later gets a call from his old enemy, Mdu, who should be behind bars but is now dangling Alakhe as bait to get to Robert. He responds with anger and disdain as he realises that Donald was right all along.

Mantoa is in a fact finding mission. She is determined to find out what Seipati knows regarding Gagashe and his snake. She accuses Seipati of not shedding a tear for Gagashe’s death. This sends Seipati into a rage that earns Mantoa a beating. Seipati is afraid that Mantoa knows the truth and that could spell trouble.

Gagashe's wives agree to play dumb to unearth the truth. They are convinced that Seipati has a hand in Gagashe's death. They go as far as apologising to her in hopes of getting on her good side. They leave with Seipati promising to take care of them and their children. Mandla comes to the house as they leave and learns that Gagashe left Seipati with everything that he owned.

Mantoa writes Seipati a letter telling her that she is very important in her life. She also apologises for not telling her the truth about Mandla. She eventually admits that he is not to be trusted and that Mandla is not truthful. Later, Robert is in his self-actualisation era, but that is short-lived as he finds himself on the ground with a bullet to the chest.
