Donald is in a bad state as he is on the run with Alakhe. He gets a message from his father, who tells him there is still time to fix this. Unfortunately, that message falls on deaf ears. Unbeknown to him, they are in grave danger as they seem to have a tail. Mpumi is distraught when she finds out that Alakhe and Donald are gone. She feels that Donald is doing all of this to make her pay. She fears the worst and is unconsolable, even as Puleng tries to tell her that Alakhe will return.

Donald confronts Mpumi about her affair with Mohau. She admits to sleeping with him on their wedding day. He loses his temper, which alerts the whole family to watch it all play out. He soon passes out while asking Mpumi how she could do this to him.

Puleng wants Mohau to answer for his actions. She is very upset with him as she feels he has ruined Mpumi’s life. He is under the impression that Alakhe is his son and has told the Nondumo’s this. Mandla wants to get to the bottom of this and is shocked as Puleng continues to shout at Mohau for his actions.

Donald tells Mpumi that he still loves her. He tells her that he has had a hard look within, and he feels that the reason for his coldness towards her was that he was hurting. He wants to fix things, and this leaves Mpumi confused. She mulls the news over with her family, who urges her to go to New York. She later decides that she wants to live her life and will move forward with moving to New York. This news comes as a surprise to Donald as he was sure that he had his family back together again.
