Second Family Season 1 episode 19-21 recap: "I won't let anything or anyone stop me"
Second Family is back and the feud between Evangeline and the Lang’ats is stronger than ever. Sinde, recovering from a brutal attack, finds herself in the hospital, where Lucas and Sophia rally to support her. But there's no time for peace as Sophia vows to make Evangeline pay for the damage she caused her family.
In a high-stakes meeting, Charles cunningly saves East Africa Granary Company, but Cyrus can't shake the feeling that Charles now holds all the power, reducing them to pawns in his game.
Lucas uncovers a bone-chilling truth - witnesses he gathered to testify against Leo's murderer are mysteriously winding up dead. And Stephen's death? No accident. Could Sinde's life also be in danger?

Cyrus has a word with his father

Cyrus's father, Jackson, confronts his son about his reckless behaviour and refusal to take responsibility like a real man. Accusing Cyrus of being controlled by Evangeline, Jackson's words push Cyrus deeper into a spiral of self-destruction. Little does Cyrus know that while he's drowning his sorrows, his parents are reigniting their tumultuous relationship.
It's not just Cyrus with secrets. Tehi, fuelled by alcohol and drugs, blurts out his shocking secret - he killed the CS. Luckily, his friend dismisses it as a wild fabrication. Speaking of wild, when Evangeline discovers the remnants of Tehi’s wild party, she throws him out of the house. However, her power is swiftly overshadowed by Charles, who locks Tehi away, determined to force him into sobriety.
The truth about Evangeline's attack revealed

In another bombshell moment, we discover that the night Evangeline was attacked by the CS was all a lie! She faked the entire incident for her own gain. Now, in an attempt to win public sympathy and bolster her campaign to see the IPO go through, she spins a web of lies to a journalist, declaring that the IPO was Leo's dream, and no one will stand in her way.
As tensions rise, Lucas and Cyrus clash over the farmer's union. Lucas uncovers a shocking revelation -someone has been surreptitiously buying the farmers' lands behind his back. Faced with the allure of quick money, the farmers are no longer willing to fight for the East Africa Granary Company.
But the jaw-dropping cliffhanger moment is still to come. Charles, with an air of mystery, instructs Dora to prepare an additional room, signalling the arrival of unexpected guests. The doorbell rings, and the tension is palpable. Who could it be?
Standing at the threshold is none other than Sinde! Why is she there? What dark plans does Charles have in store? Don't miss the next episode of this gripping family feud in Second Family, now streaming exclusively on Showmax.
