Frank is jealous of Denton and Jakes’s bond now that Frank works at Thandi. Denton’s Queen Of Hearts casino and Frank confronts Denton on Tuesday 21 March. “There’ll be a standoff between Denton, Frank, Jakes and Pam and someone will die,” hints Selai.
TAKING A BACK SEAT

Ben ( Vilje Maritz) wants to become a player manager at Kings on Wednesday 15 March but his family, including his dad Paul (Justin Strydom), who’s the casino COO, aren’t supportive of his new career path. Player manager Dhanny (Mayuri Naidu) isn’t happy that Ben’s after her job on Tuesday 21 March. Kings security expert Pam (Kate Normington) pushes Frank to go after Jakes on Wednesday 22 March.

And lastly, TT (Fezile Mpela) tells his daughter Thandi to take more responsibility on 27 March, like accepting Jakes’s marriage proposal.
