But the debt will not disappear. Someone will have to pay. Van As searches for Freddy, beats up his daughter, Ishara, and steals her cat. Meanwhile, Jana and Piet set in motion a plan to "scare" Van As, but it goes awry and they end up kidnapping his wife, Suzanne, instead. Rosie realizes she needs to find Freddy in order to resolve the Van As situation. But she is distracted by a marriage proposal from Mack, and the revelation that her daughter, Lucy, has a major crush on her netball teacher. Rosie gets a lead on Freddy's whereabouts and leaves to go and find him. On the road to Port Nolloth Rosie dies in a car accident and her loss is the catalyst that forces the Greyling siblings to return to the family home and face their past.
