“Qwani Hunitrust?” Okeyo asks the audience, before Lawie answers this by painting a clear picture of the most deceptive city, Nairobi, in the Soul of the city. But before we can even imagine how chaotic Nairobi is, Ang’ana invites us to Nakuru where his phone was nearly stolen and so we sit on this journey as Gachagua’s Passengers. The journey, however, becomes rough, as seen by Kiptoo’s Despair, and so we beckon Toti to solve it through her Catharsis.

In the meantime, Amanda wonders how to make this boy go home with her, and one week later, Mwangi gets Bantu, the man of the Dreadlocks to go. But just before that, Mutheu gives him The Menu to buy Chips za Sonford from Gathoni.
