Alex, Harrison's friend and co-worker, is looking for a place to entertain a 'client' for a day. For the right fee, he gains access to the house of Lungula, but with conditions. Mr. and Mrs. Taylor's marriage is rocky, and she has suspicions that her husband is cheating. Sahara provides a solution, an eye for an eye. To be fair, these suspicions are not entirely unfounded as Mr. Taylor is a very naughty man, slinging around the beautiful Chichi while he's supposed to be at the office.
