Continuing from Clip 01:

Banele is sitting on mom’s lap and grasping onto the plastic tablecloth, pulling it towards him. Siblings comment on how well he uses his hands. Mom laughs about how naughty he is being and hands him over to dad – who holds his hands and walks him across the table. When he starts to cry, Sihle, Banele’s oldest sibling, takes him from dad. Once Banele is on the ground he is interested in following a fly and crawls to the oven, his siblings following and providing a commentary on each of his actions. He also sees his own reflection in the oven door. Finally, Banele starts to crawl away from the oven, following Siyabonga, and the other siblings form a crawling line behind him.
