@Lyanna2000 commented:

"When they first mentioned Portia, I was thinking of Xhosa-speaking actress, and Nontle from Generation popped in my mind. I know she will kill the role."

@TeeCantget said:

"Akasem’hle uPortia sana," (Portia is so beautiful).

@TeeCantget reacted:

"What is Grumpy apologizing for? I hope it’s for not sharing the actual cause of death with his kids and not apologizing for being the cause of it."

@SthahMk replied:

"So grumpy really murdered his wife? Love it for Khusela, ngaske athi ditch la Zondo tech."

@LeeMpaki wrote:

"Grumpy killed his wife...Mawethu fumbled his career, and Forest doesn't even know how to use a washing machine."

@TeeCantget

Hlathi doesn’t know how to use a washing machine, and neither does his brother. The blind leading the blonde

@missfabulous_15 responded:

"I knew that Mawethu resigning at Khusela was never a good idea. I feel sorry for him. You can never trust Zondi."

"I so much wanted Zondo tech to succeed for Mawethu, I’m still rooting for it to succeed, Aww kodwa Mawethu mfethu."

"Why is Nomfundiso crying? Ain't this what she wanted all along?"

"Forest can't even use a washing machine."

@_Yemurai_ reacted:

"The fact that Thumeka doesn’t even want to have cordial conversations with Hlathi proves that she never liked him as a person. She never fell in love with him as uHlathi. She was in love with the idea of marriage and being a 'kept wife' like Zoleka."

@crazythatoo replied:

"Zoleka didn’t even have to do the heavy lifting. Thank You, Azande."
