Scandal!: Khumo's Tragedy
This week on Scandal!
Mthunzi's charm and acting skills initially earn him Sammyday’s trust, with Sammyday believing he’s the perfect person to manage his wealth. However, that trust is short-lived as Kgopolo steps in, sidelining Mthunzi and bringing in a personal banker, effectively cutting Mthunzi off from the millions. He learns that he’ll have to wait years before seeing a cent, leaving him furious and powerless. Meanwhile, Nhloso is heartbroken when Lihle confronts him about his future with Dintle, casting doubt on the stability of their relationship. The tension grows when Ephraim tries to mediate between Ntuthuko and his father, pushing Ntuthuko to reassess his role in protecting his mother and sister.
MaThubela’s attempt to confront Mdala ends in failure, but it leads her to a shocking discovery about the surrogacy plan, causing tension between her and Tlhogi. Tlhogi is horrified when MaThubela not only questions her about the surrogacy but later crosses a line by administering a traditional remedy for constipation to one of the twins, sparking outrage and leading to MaThubela’s dismissal. In another explosive twist, a video of Ntuthuko confronting Dintle goes viral at Ethembeni, further embarrassing the family and drawing sharp judgment from the community.
At Ethembeni, tragedy strikes when Khumo collapses, leaving Tebello terrified and helpless. The emotional turmoil continues as Taps and Sanda rush to the hospital to find their son sedated. Taps’ desperation intensifies when he discovers he isn’t a match and can’t donate to his son, adding to their heartbreak. Elsewhere, Dintle is let down when Nhloso pulls away, refusing to spend more nights with her, deepening her sense of rejection. Meanwhile, Botsotso stirs chaos with gossip after wildly misinterpreting a situation, fueling rumours just as drama breaks out over Tshidi’s bank card being swallowed by an ATM, throwing her fake marriage into further disarray.
As relationships unravel, secrets explode into the public eye, and loyalties are tested, Scandal! continues to deliver gripping drama that keeps everyone on edge.
