    S2 E12: Wahala for the Friendless

    In this emotionally chaotic and sharply funny episode, Ayo re-emerges from grief and attempts to reclaim normalcy. She’s ready to feel joy again. Ready to socialize. Ready to make friends. But in true Lagos fashion, just as she opens her heart to new sisterhood… one of her new friends unknowingly introduces her to the ex she’s been trying to forget. What started as healing becomes a full-circle wahala.

    S2 E7: Juno

    This episode is the emotional fallout of every moment that came before. It’s a story about misreading signals, yearning for love, making choices with your whole chest and facing rejection with your whole heart. Ayo is pregnant. That’s real. And everything else? A mess.

    What if everything changed… in just 24 hours? Ayo starts the day trying to be grown — ready to face the pregnancy test, Amir, and whatever comes next. But one pharmacist, three test strips, a grandma with laser eyes, and a cousin on the bathroom floor later… nothing will ever be the same.

    S2 E5: Ghost

    This episode starts with a warning: “If I don’t explain a few things, the story won’t make sense.” And Ayo’s not lying, what unfolds is a devastating unraveling of grief, betrayal, and long-buried truths about family, identity, and who’s really been carrying what.
