However, in the final moments of the episode, Tanya goes exploring the house after hearing a noise, only to discover Quentin and Jack having sex. Some fans were immediately confused as it appeared that the nephew and uncle were engaging in sexual activity, but others weren’t so sure.
What is Quentin's game?
One person wrote" "Don’t be confused, Jack’s not really his nephew, it’s his boyfriend. Jack’s working Portia to keep her away so she won’t catch on to their scam." Another person added: "I don’t think that’s his nephew. Bet they’re trying to run a scam on poor Tanya. The way they slightly shaded her at the Opera was a clue."
