Initially in charge of propaganda within an oppressive South African government, Helga (Malisa Longo) is demoted to being in charge of looking after a group of recently captured rebel female prisoners. She rules Chateau Stilberg with an iron fist whilst having an insatiable appetite for both prisoners and soldiers alike. Unfortunately for her, not all the prisoners want to play along and this naturally frustrates Helga on a regular basis. One of the prisoners under her watchful eye is the spunky and feisty Elisabeth Vogel (Patrizia Gori), daughter of a leftist lawyer who is seemingly the government’s biggest enemy and prime target. When Helga discovers this, she naturally intends to use young Elisabeth as bait, but eventually starts to fall for her.

Whaaatt?!!
There were a few surprises on Secrets and Lies Season 2 Episode 8. There were also a few things that weren't much a surprise. That reveal at the end for instance.
We've all been pretty much super suspicious of John Warner, so that ending was more like confirmation than anything else. The real question is whether he is really the blackmailer. If he is the blackmailer than why?
The rest of the episode revolved around Eric, Patrick, Melanie, and flashbacks.
Things I'm not a fan of? Unnecessary flashbacks. There were so many of them in the episode, and to be honest, most of them served no real purpose for the plot or the narrative so it felt like a filler episode before the finale.
Did we need to see a flashback of Danny with his daughter when she was 10? No. Did we really need the flashback to up the young Warner children to up the angst?...
