Housekeepers: Will Linda shoot Peter?
It’s only been a couple of weeks and Housekeepers is already one of those shows we can’t get enough of. Although it’s made us cry a couple of times, we can’t help but come back for more every single week. You’ll know exactly how we feel when you find out what happened on the Mzansi Magic drama series on Monday evening.
Mtho survives
So, it seems like we all wasted our tears crying for Mtho after last week’s emotional episode of Housekeepers. We were convinced that Mtho, who is Linda’s younger brother, had died. This got us in our feelings as we couldn’t imagine what it would do to Linda. What made it worse is that the show ended with Linda saying that washing her mother’s body at the mortuary didn’t prepare her for her brother being taken away from her.
However, last night, we were relieved to discover that he had actually survived. Why did they have to play with our emotions like that, though? They really didn’t have to make us believe that Mtho was dead. We guess that’s how you keep people tuned in, right? Their plan worked.
At least Mtho is still Alive Linda can continue the Mission #HouseKeepersMzansi

Peter can’t keep his hands off Linda
It’s obvious that Peter and Boni’s marriage is in trouble, but no matter how bad things have got in their relationship, we would have never imagined that he’d end up cheating on her with Linda. We’re not saying we don’t think he’s capable of cheating – we all know how he ended up with Boni – but we’re just shocked that he decided to go for Linda, out of all people.
He had us screaming last night when he asked Linda to kiss him. Can you imagine what could have been going through Linda’s mind when this whole thing was happening? The same man who’s partly responsible for her mother’s death, the same guy who wants to cheat her out of her inheritance, is now running to her for comfort!
If you’ve been watching the show for a while, like us, you’ll know that Linda is a very smart woman and she’d do whatever it takes to expose the truth about her mother’s death. Because she’s got the bigger picture in her mind, she played along and kissed Peter like he was the most amazing man on the planet.
Now here’s where things got a bit tricky: towards the end of the episode, while she and Peter were sharing a passionate kiss, Linda managed to grab a gun and pointed it at Peter.
Nooo😭😭 and Linda had to point out the gun so soon 🤔#HousekeepersMzansi pic.twitter.com/oKUPz9zd8X

We’re not sure if this was a smart move from Linda. Yes, she’s mad at Peter and his wife, and she has every right to feel this way. However, we were hoping that she’d play the game for a bit longer, win his trust and then when he least expects it, expose him to the entire world.
Do you think she will end up killing Peter, or has Linda got herself into some more trouble? From what we’ve seen from Peter and his wife in the last couple of weeks, they won’t hesitate to kill anyone who’s standing in their way.
Nooooooooo!!!!!!
Linda!!!!!!!!
WTF!!!!!!!#HousekeepersMzansi
