Against the backdrop of the wedding celebration, Danny pays tribute to Dup and to Leopards Den. Dup slips quietly away to the rocky outcrop where years earlier he made the decision to invite the Trevanions to live at Leopards Den. With tears of love Caroline explains, "He'll always be here." Framed by the setting sun, Dup removes his hat and closes his eyes.

Final appearance of Danny Trevanion, Alice Trevanion, Rosie Trevanion, Charlotte Collins, Anders Du Plessis, Olivia Adams and Nomsa Xaba.
