Confrontation
Episode 10 of Fatal Seduction begins by transporting us to the past, where we learn that Leonard was forced to frame Benjamin Jiba by the minister. In the present timeline, Nandi receives a phone call about Leonard’s heart attack while she is speaking with Vuyo. She immediately rushes to the hospital.
After having sex at school, Jacob inquires about Nandi. Zinhle goes on to say that she had been unhappy for many years after her miscarriage. She was, however, happy recently after Brenda died. However, she has been feeling low for the past few days. Following this revelation, Jacob rushes off to meet Nandi, leaving Zinhle hanging and confused.
When Nandi arrives at the hospital, she is seen waiting in Leonard’s hospital room. She confronts him after he regains consciousness about having sex with Brenda and shooting Vuyo in the leg. Leonard goes on to say that he did everything he could to protect her and Zinhle. He then begs Nandi to accompany him on his escape, promising her that he will tell her everything.
Vuyo then confronts Leonard as well. Leonard begs for his forgiveness but Vuyo remains silent. Meanwhile, after failing to locate Nandi at school, Jacob pays a visit to her home. However, because Nandi is not at home, he ends up spending time with Zinhle.
Nandi returns home shortly after and is appalled to discover Jacob with Zinhle and requests that he leave. She informs Zinhle of Leonard’s heart attack and tells her to meet at her car. Jacob approaches Nandi as she is about to get into her car and goes on to tell her that she used him for sex, which Zinhle overhears.
Zinhle confronts Nandi on their way to the hospital but she denies sleeping with Jacob. Instead, she informs that Jacob has been stalking her and is a dangerous man. At this point, the minister sends Precious to threaten Leonard in the hospital. Leonard tries to contact Charlie Chace but he has arrived someplace else with files for Leonard but he is shot.
As a consequence of the stress, Leonard has a seizure. The doctor informs Nandi and Zinhle of Leonard’s condition when they arrive at the hospital. Vuyo rushes to the hospital as well and informs Nandi that they must consider the possibility that Leonard murdered Brenda. Meanwhile, we see Charlie Chace lying unconscious, most likely dead, and the episode comes to a close.
The Episode Review
The episode explains why Leonard did what he did. Furthermore, we see him in the hospital as a result of the minister’s pressure. Throughout the episode, we also see several character revelations, most notably Zinhle learning about Jacob, and Nandi learning about Leonard and Brenda’s affair.
The episode is unnecessarily chaotic, with things spiralling out of control in all story arcs simply to add drama to the story. The show isn’t nearly as interesting as it believes it is. This episode is a disaster, filled with unnecessary drama, chaos, and senseless events.
