[bunniefuu]

You're wasting food.
Just look, you hardly even ate. Huh?

- I'm not hungry.
- Oh!

He has woken up from the dead.

Hey. Did you have a rough night?

Uh, nah, I just stayed in late
in the nets with the boys.

Oh, eat up, my son.

-You need to regain your strength.
-Thank you.

The bread is over there.

-Hey, dude.
-How's it going?

-Gabisile.
-You two ready to head off?

-Uh, I'm gonna drive to class.
-Just about.

That's it from me. I'm gone.

-Safe trip.
-See you later.

Okay. Bye.

Mmm. You should eat.

What are you doing here?

What brings you here?

Wakey-wakey, Bolt.

Go!

Dad, he's in his room.

You see, we're trying to do
what the therapist-- Uh…

Gabi, please.

Hey, Siya. We were just talking about you.

-Morning, sir.
-Yeah.

Morning, Siya.

-Morning, Ma'am.
-Did you sleep well?

Yes, I did and you?

- Good.
- Mmm.

Make sure you eat.

-Okay.
-Today is a very big day for you.

Mmm. First big race.

-Thank you.
-I have to go.

Bye.

Gabi will drive you.

Yes.

Can I pour you some juice?

Yes please. I'd love some, sir.

All right. Okay.

You need to work hard…

So, you say you don't remember anything
from that day?

Uh… No.

And they found you there?

In the car?

Yes.

Your blood alcohol level
was extremely high.

You being able to drive the car
is a miracle.

Do you know that boy you hit?

Uh… No.

-How old are you? Now?
-Uh…

I'm 17.

When is your birthday?

Next… Next week on the 22nd.

See, the thing is
there are a lot of eyes on this case.

The boy you hit, Edwin Khumalo,
is not… not just some random boy.

His family is really well connected.

As your attorney, I think you should…

plead guilty.

I believe that will help you

because the judge is inclined
to trial you as an adult.

You're turning 18, right?

They will find a suitable sentence
for you to stay in prison.

If you throw yourself at the mercy
of the court, I might be able to help you.

It will reduce the sentence
to five to 10 years.

Five to 10 years?

But I thought you were on my side.

This is me helping you.

The evidence alone is a lot.

The punishment would be hefty.

How many years are we talking?

Maybe even…

Thirty years.

Officer.

We'll talk soon.

Let's go, man. It's been a long day.

-Um…
-Don't bother.

Adjectives as… as a paintbrush,
okay, on a canvas of words.

So what they're doing,
is they're adding color, okay?

And we use those. We use images.

And Shakespeare is so good with imagery.

Metaphors.

So when you're thinking about language,
I'd really like you to use

this image of paints and colors
and use it to inform your work.

When you…

I earned that spot, Coach. Okay?

I should be the one finishing.

We spoke about this.

I always finish. I cross the line.

The fastest man finishes the race.
That is how it works.

He can barely hold the baton.

Yeah, but he's faster, so deal with it.

- Hey, Coach.
- Hi.

-How are we feeling? Are we good?
-Good, coach.

-How's the arm?
-Pretty good.

Remember, rise on arch.

Hey, Coach.

I wanna see that rotation.

Heel, toe, heel, toe, push. Good.

All right, boys.

We take no prisoners! You hear me?

-No prisoners!
-Yes, Coach!

-Who's winning this thing?
-We are!

It's the moment
we've all been waiting for.

The 4x100m men relay race.

Girl, I know you're ready
'cause I'm ready for this.

I'm excited.

I know who I'm betting my money on.
You guys want to know?

The new shining star.

- Who is winning this thing?
- We are!

- All right! Let's go!
- Let's go!

Okay!

One, two, three.

Team!

Bolt. Stay here.

Okay.

So, you good?

Yes, Coach.

Remember, count the strides in your head

-and when you're ready…
-Launch.

Right.

Go get them. Prove them wrong.

On your marks!

Set!

Go!

Push, boys.

Let's go!

Come on, RJ!

Yes! Go, Bolt!

Boy! Yes! Yeah!

Yes!

Let's f*cking go, guys!

What the f*ck, bro? What?

Hey!

Hey.

Okay.

Hello! How are you?

I'm good, thanks. And you, bro?

Man, it's been too long.

I really miss you, my boy.

Everything is cool, bruh.

Running is exhausting,
and I also need to study.

It's a lot.

It's a lot, but…

-Mmm.
-It is what it is, my brother.

Yeah, bro. Life has a lot of surprises.

I heard they're taking good care of you.

Apparently, the family is too rich
or something.

-Yeah, hey.
-You're being spoiled!

No, I'm fine, my brother.

I'm good. I have to…

They told me that tomorrow I have to…

go to the, uh, holding cell.

They're taking me there tomorrow.

-Yeah, hey.
-But otherwise, I'm good.

Yeah. Yeah.

What's wrong?

Hey, man.

You know there's actually something
I've been wanting to speak to you about.

You can talk to me, bro.

I'm here.

It's just that there's something
in my heart that I can…

I cannot keep inside any longer.

I really have to tell you.

What's the matter?

You know, boy. That night we went out…

With everything that went on…

You see, I want you to know

it wasn't…

It wasn't you, man, who was…

Sorry.

Are you all right?

Yeah, I'm okay.

Okay.

-What's wrong?
-Nothing.

Then why are you standing there?

No, I never thought I'd see you crying.

Everyone cries.

Let's go have some drinks.

All right. Everyone
is going to take a shot now, okay?

-I'm going to pour a shot.
-Yeah, let's go.

Let's go.

You okay?

Oh…

Yeah.

Um,

can I ask you something?

Sure.

Why you such a b*tch to me?

You! The f*ck you doing here?

- I was invited.
- By who?

-'Cause I don't f*cking remember doing it.
-We invited him. He k*lled it today.

-One race and we're all buddies now?
-We're a team, bro.

You come to my school,

take my friends

and my team.

And then you come to my house?

-I can go.
-You can f*ck off is what you can do!

Bro, it's late.

I'm just gonna go.

And you?

Hanging with golden boy now, huh?

You think you're quick?

You haven't seen nothing.

- Bro, we're just talking.
- Bullshit!

You just want us to hand it to you, huh?

Like the rest of the f*cking country.

Hand-out here and a hand-out there.

My father built the track that you run on.

I'm gonna go.

Hey, everybody, watch your phones.

Bolt over here might take something.

You should look after your bag a bit more.

Hey!

Do you need a ride?

Okay, fine.
You don't wanna answer my calls.

You want to ignore me? That's fine.

But just know that this thing
is not going to go anywhere.

I don't know what the f*ck
is going on with you.
