Desperation and despair

A grieving DeWet is on a vengeful path toward destruction and the Welmans are laying in wait.

- LEZANNE JANSE VAN RENSBURG

While viewers are still trying to make peace with Shawn’s (Deànré Reiners) sudden death in December, his dad DeWet Basson (Dirk Stoltz) is already making plans to avenge his son being killed. And while he’s still not entirely sure who is responsible for his devastating loss, he’s determined to start somewhere – in this case, with the Welmans. “He does have his suspicions that the Welmans are hiding something,” admits Dirk. But hard evidence is needed before he can take action against his son’s killers…

BUGS EVERYWHERE!

Eager to get his vengeful plan going and taste victory, Dirk says that his character does what he does best: He snoops around for useful intel. “He ends up bugging the Welmans’ home with listening devices,” reveals Dirk. But his plot to spy on Chris (David Rees) and Mariaan (Deirdre Wolhuter) falls flat in mere hours after the Welman couple gets wind of the bugs. It’s not an entire loss though as one of the few conversations DeWet overhears points him to Switzerland – the location where Rickus Welman (André Lötter), the guy who accidentally killed Shawn, is hiding!
