An intrigued @just.tshidiso said to Ruth:

"Oh, you flex differently."

"The question is, can you skate in your own house when your mother is there? Everyone is a gangster until the real gangster comes home. I'm talking from experience. They don't play games."

"Our situation right now. We have zero rands for December, but we have a house."
