We have to vote on something.

Japie got us a buyer for the farm.

It's a good price,

it will get us back on our feet.

Or we can keep the farm.

Let's keep it then!

If we want to keep the farm,

we'll have to sell everything on it.

And if the harvest fails again,

we will lose everything.

Drive carefully.

We'll help you.

You sang lovely tonight, Sarah.

Couldn't they have left the fridge?

No!

No, no!

You can come eat at my place.

Come.

My house isn't far.

It's just around the corner.

Uh Uh umh...

I know it's probably

inappropriate, my Muggie.

But I have a fridge at my house.

And furniture... in your favourite colours.

And... uh...

a king size double bed.

What are trying to say, Japie.

I've been walking around with

this in my pocket for a week.

Japie, this is totally inappropriate.

Come here.

Come, come. Come, come.

Give it here, so I can see.

That was wonderful!

Ah!

There you go!

Let's celebrate!

Can someone please tell me

what's going on?

Kobus and Jodie, Ma.

Isn't it obvious?

Oh, I see.

Well, are you just gonna watch

as she flies away?

She's with Daniel Taylor, Ma.

Well, I'm not quite sure who he is.

We looked him up when I

googled "lactose intolerant".

But...

She belongs in a big city, like London.

There you go.

Do you want her to go?

Because you can learn something

from bloody Japie, then.

Because he does what he wants,

no matter how inappropriate it is.

Kobus...

Come, come, everyone.

Kobus...

Kobus...

Come look at this!

This is really inappropriate.

Greetings!

Can we get on with it, please.

Muggie.

Come, fly to me!
