Tallulah’s back at the bar the next day, on Tuesday 31 May, and this time she’s after something with a kick: she asks Ravi to add jalapeño peppers to her kale and cinnamon shake, which leaves the barman scratching his head. Pit-boss Esme sees her friend with her newest “creation” and alarm bells ring in her head. “Esme suspects that Tallulah might have a bun in the oven,” says Carine. But she needs more info, so Esme confronts her ex-hubby Ben (Viljé Maritz) on Wednesday 1 June about him and Tallulah. He says that he always uses protection when he and Tallulah are in bed, but as the episode ends we spot Tallulah taking a pregnancy test…
Having confirmed her pregnancy on Monday 6 June, Tallulah tries to put on a brave face. “She’s in a bad headspace and devastated as she knows that this pregnancy will cost her a chance with the America Dance Company,” says Hayley.
On Wednesday 8 June, Tallulah decides that she isn’t ready to become a mom and considers terminating her pregnancy. Will she go through with it? And how will Ben react when he hears that she’s carrying his child? Busi’s forced to give a weak evaluation of the casino in order to keep David happy, but while this is happening, TT sees the warrior from his dreams. Kenny has a painful confrontation with Ramon, Linkie proves her loyalty to Kenny, and Esme thinks that she had a threesome with Ben and Dhanny after a wild night at the Showbar.
Busi wants to go on a romantic trip overseas with Paul but he throws a spanner in the works when he tells her that as a convicted felon he can’t go to certain countries. Analine brings David breakfast in bed as a peace offering but he gives her the cold shoulder, and Ramon tries to manipulate Linkie to get info on Kenny. Tallulah develops some strange eating habits, and Ramon attempts to steal rehearsal time from Kenny but it backfires, which only pushes Kenny to work harder – so hard that he ends up with a knee injury. TT’s symptoms and visions get worse, which cause concern for Mhambi who tries to help him. Kenny tries to hide his injury from Linkie, while Esme gets the feeling that Tallulah is pregnant. Analine’s shocked when David announces that he’s applied to be CEO of Kings Casino under the new management, while Kenny and Ramon agree to do an interview for the dance competition, which then goes viral. And Esme stops Tallulah from embarrassing herself.
