Scandal!' Review: Will Dintle and Dr Nyasha save Hlengiwe from Amo?. Image via Twitter @etvScandal

Scandal! viewers are exhausted with Amo and Hlengiwe's kidnapping storyline and want Dintle or Dr Nyasha to rescue her as soon as possible.

--

He couldn't accept that his relationship with Hlengiwe has ended after he got dumped for Dr Nyasha, started stalking her and kidnapped her.

IS THIS THE END OF THE ROAD FOR AMO?

Amo (Kagiso Rathebe) shocked Scandal! viewers this month when he transformed from a loving boyfriend to Hlengiwe, to a stalker and kidnapper. Her colleague Dintle and her boyfriend are now extremely worried as she's acting out of character.

--

The show is highlighting rejection; how men act when a woman rejects them and why they get psychotic and can't let go when the relationship has ended.

Amo was in denial when Hlengiwe informed him that it was over, he tried to change her mind and started stalking her when he realised that she's moved on with another man.

He then kidnapped Hlengiwe when she realised that he's been stalking her and demanded she dumps her new boyfriend while she was holding her at gun point.

SCANDAL!' APRIL SPOILERS: The TVSA Friday 22 April teaser reveals that Hlengiwe's boyfriend Dr Nyasha didn't believe her when she dumped him.

Mukuna proves he isn't so easy to fool and makes an ominous threat.

The Thursday (21 April) episode also ended with Dintle heading to Hlengiwe's house to find out what's happened to her as she doesn't believe that she's working on a big story.

Dintle comes up with a dodgy idea to help a friend.

VIEWERS REACT

@i_am_nashdee:

This Amo guy is killing this storyline, now that's some master class acting.

He is killing it, so convincing that I hate him right now, if I meet him I could punch him in the face.

@mama_nelo:

Just imagine the amount of research that he had to do to get that character on point Lots of respect to him.

@SefakoX:

Looks like these writers for our local content are running out of ideas.

If they don't repeat stories, they drag them unnecessarily.

You would find yourself watching a story until you no longer watch it. It can be annoying sometimes.

Bathong Amo has definitely gone off the rails #ScandalEtv #Scandal

Why is it that men struggle to deal with rejection??

Amo is going to face jail time and regret ever falling inlove with Hlengi #ScandalEtv#Scandal

Anger; A strong feeling of annoyance, displeasure or hostility.

In recent episodes of #etvscandal we have all witnessed as Amo went through the fourth stage of grief being anger. pic.twitter.com/bGJa2nFRqB
