(Alicia is at home, grieving. She calls Nkosi.)

Alicia: (Sobbing) Could you take over Nkosana’s case? I have family issues to attend to.

Nkosi: Are you okay, Miss? Court day is in three days’ time, it is short notice. I won’t make it, I’m sorry.

Alicia: You will manage, I trust you. I will have the file delivered to you with all the evidence you need. Don’t disappoint Nkosana, he is counting on you now! (She hangs up.)
