All hope appears to be lost after Nonka’s attorney informs her that nothing can be done to free her from prison if Kwanda does not admit that he was the only one involved with drugs and was using her and the company as a front. Her attorney informs her that she has two options. The first is to go to trial, where they can argue that she did not know about the drugs, but this does not guarantee that she will receive a lesser sentence because Kwanda’s defence might convict her. The second choice is for her to enter a guilty plea, where she might receive a lesser punishment, a suspended sentence, or community service. Nonka agrees that none of the options offers her much hope.
