Analysis Of The Khumbulani's 'Mumy'
Which ring would look good on Mumsy?

- You're really marrying her?
- It's time Mumsy became Mrs Maphumulo.

Is this your bag?

- Yes.
- We're taking you in.

Mondli, come on.

This is the bag the ATM bombers had.

Uncuff this man.

The courier papers show that this isn't the same bag.

Khumbulani, how are you?

Hi.

Can I join you?

Nail technician, right?

It's Thobile.
Don't you remember me?

I'm sorry. I was so busy I forgot to cancel.

But let's talk about it some other time.

Please let's stop mentioning his name in here.

I don't understand boys.
You give them a chance, and they blow it.

- What are you doing here?
- I just came in to say hi.

This is the Khumbulani who paid for our food.

- We know him.
- Right.

You know, I should've

when he fought Goliath.

Melusi, do something.
Mxolisi's starting trouble out there.

- What's wrong now?
- Hlengiwe called me to say he's leading a mob.

- What's wrong with him?
- Let's go!

They're going to the panelbeaters to attack Nkunzi.

That boy!

How long will you avoid this?

I'm not avoiding anything, Fikile.

We've just found out that Khumbu is a crook.

If that works for him, good for him.
What do I care anyway?

So you don't care that you and Thobile like the same guy?

Didn't you hear me?

I said I'm alright.
I don't need a relationship with a man.

Can I be honest with you?
You have a crush on Khumbulani.

Give me that look all you want, but you know that I'm right.

Please just get off my case.

Get off your case?
He clearly likes you, and not Thobile.

That was clear when he paid for your lunch.

He only paid for lunch because I was holding up the line.

No guy would give you his money just because you're holding up the line.

- Let's go.
- We will, but just be honest.

This will cause a rift between you and Thobile.

Why? What have I done?
Thobile and

Ma, I didn't intend for it to end up that way.

You shouldn't have even started it.

Didn't you learn from my mistakes?

This never ends well.

Even the police couldn't find any evidence linking Nkunzi to that ATM bombing.

And you decided to take the law into your own hands.

Is everything okay?

Your brother had Nkunzi attacked.

Zekhethelo was also injured.

They're very critical.

It was a mistake.

I don't care if it was a mistake or not.

Just pray that they live.

Open the door.

- Good evening.
- Evening.

Gentlemen.

Any news about Nkunzi and his daughter?

Yes.

How are they doing?

We're still waiting for the hospital results.

But if...

Zekhethelo dies...

Mxolisi will be charged with murder.

I tried to stop the mob.

They shouldn't have gone there.

I didn't plan for them to attack Nkunzi and Zekhethelo.

You'll tell us at the station.
Stand up so we can cuff you.

But you said you're waiting for the results.

Yes, Ma, but we'll charge him for instigating violence...

in the community.

Mxolisi, we'll find a lawyer and come see you.

Hurry up.

Jehovah!

Hurry up.

You have the right to remain silent.

Everything you say...

You're awake, my love.

- Hello.
- Hi.

We've been so worried about

    Ancient Egyptian civilization was based on religion. Their belief in the rebirth after death became their driving force behind their funeral practices. Death was simply a temporary interruption, rather than an end to life, and that eternal life could be ensured by means of worship to the gods, preservation of the physical form thru mummification, substantial ceremonies and detailed burial policies and procedures. Even though many today have varying views of an afterlife, many of the funerary practices that originated in Egypt can be seen in present day funeral services.…
