Give me ideas for a further 5 episodes following on this first episode: Establish Theatre artistic Director Ray Kgomo, 40, with his staff, interviewing a prospective young woman, Mirriam “Mimi” Noko, 23, for a post in the theatre’s marketing team. Although they see 3 more candidates from the shortlist, Ray is quite taken in with Mimi – we can tell it’s more than professional interest.
Ray meets Bra Fox Khumalo (based on Themba Ka Nyathi) at the theatre bar who tells him that he saw his friend Sera living in the streets, parking cars for a living. Ray is stunned. 
Ray searches the streets and finds Sera Monareng, 33, at some homeless shelter. “Why didn’t you tell me?” Ray asks. Sera replies that he didn’t want to bother him. Ray then begs him to come with him. They go home to Ray’s mansion and we meet Ray’s wife, Zama Kgomo (nee Maduna), 33. An ex-singer who now works a government admin job. Of course Sera and Zama know each other.
Ray and Zama attempt to make the house comfortable for Sera (they give him a room, he bathes and they give him new clothes) but their warmth and affection for each other (drunken affection really, they braai and get drunk and become touchy-touchy) reminds him of what he lost (note: perhaps here there is a flash back to the love he’s lost – much like the “A Thin Red Line” love flashbacks). The love interest in the flashback is Natasha “Tash” Matlala, 17.
Ray goes with Sera to work. There’s a play he’s rehearsing. Ray is called to the office and tells the actors to work alone. The actors work but Sera cannot help himself, he directs them. There seems to be magic in Zoli as he works, the actors are awed. Ray comes back, watches unseen, impressed – “you can take the artist out of the art but you can’t take the art out of the artist”, he seems to be thinking.
After rehearsal, Ray and Zoli are having lunch. Ray tells Zoli that it was good to see him in action, Sera clearly missed working in rehearsal, he seemed hungry for it – the actors also loved the session. Sera coyly admits as much. Ray offers him a post of assistant director/performance director in his play, argues that it is the only position he can offer Sera without raising eyebrows.  Sera understands.
Still at the bar, whilst Ray is surprised to see Mimi and chats her up, Sera is pleased to meet old acquaintances... Bo Bra Fox, bo Lira (based Keneilwe Monareng) and Stanza (based on an amalgam of Sabelo Zulu and Tshepo Matlala), bo Walker (based on Klaas Motebejane), bo Nomsa (based on Sinovuyo Yokwana – this could be a white person), bo Sello (based on Lerato Zulu’s brother – and fictionally, Zama’s brother), etc. Meanwhile, we can tell that Ray is smitten with Mimi. 
At work on a new day, Ray introduces the new Marketing hires (Mimi included) to his Artistic Staff. He explains how he hopes they’ll lift the theatre’s marketing from the doldrums with their youth and freshness. We can see him and Mimi eyeing each other somewhat seductively.  
Ray invites Mimi and the 2 other hires for post work drinks. The 2 other ladies end up leaving (one picked up by boyfriend and other rushing for taxis). Ray is left with Mimi, says he will drop her. She counters that she has her own car. She seductively toys a lot with Ray, even at some point telling him that he is exposing his strategy in bedding the new girls. He denies that, but she tells him not to bother, says his employees are already making moves on her, and they warned her about him, he likes to turn the new girls into his side chicks. “But you still stayed behind with me even with that warning?” he asks. She replies that though his employees fear him, she doesn’t. She knows he’s married and if he will ever fuck her, it won’t be because he tricked her, but because she wants to. Ray is intrigued. Sera arrives from rehearsal. 
Ray asks Sera if he doesn’t mind not going home, he wants to fuck Mimi, he can tell she’s into him. Sera says sure, he can go to Bra Fox’s house for the evening.
Bra Fox and friends entertain Sera at Bra Fox’s township house. Bra Fox is quite an entertaining guy, who claims he has AIDS. Lira seduces Sera. Bra Fox warns him to use a condom with that one, otherwise Sera will end up like him (with AIDS?).   
Ray has sex with Mimi. Mimi is toying with him to such a point where you’d think Ray is an inexperienced teen. It is clear who is the boss here.  
In the morning, the haggard Ray and Sera arrive home. He apologises to his wife, lies that he slept while Sera was working with actors overnight. Zama doesn’t seem so convince. Sera is uncomfortable when the couple scream at each other (a side of them he never knew). Zama is convinced her husband was out fucking around and that he had the poor Sera cover for him. 
Sera showers as he hears the screaming voices (Ray and Zama) from the main bedroom.
