Restaurant manager Mrekza’s (Kope Magae) double life catches up to him on Wednesday 28 February. Along with the endless responsibilities at family restaurant S’khaftin Chicken, he took another managerial position at rival diner Bra J’s. His side job is too demanding and he’s missing shift at job #1. Mrekza’s boss Cosmo (Ronnie Nyakale) isn’t pleased when he walks into a rowdy S’khaftin on Wednesday 28 February and Kope says this is where the trouble starts. “Cosmo demands to see his manager but Mrekza is nowhere to be found. Everyone is scared of bad-guy Cosmo, so when he asks them about Mrekza’s whereabouts, they tell him.” The actor sighs, “Cosmo is actually upset and disappointed that Mrekza has betrayed them.” Cosmo grabs his sister Lucy (Manaka Ranaka), who is also Mrekza’s girlfriend, and they head to confront their manager that same day, hoping to find that it isn’t true.
