Episode 2: Two Years, To the Day
A year on, Tobi does everything right — verifies the college himself, sits his English test 18 months early to be safe. Then his mother's health scare pushes his travel date back a semester, and nobody notices the test's own clock quietly running out first. Two good decisions, made for good reasons, collide into one small gap that belongs to neither of them.
Episode 3: Chief Dr. Success Says So
No scammer, no villain — Kelechi just wanted to study Computer Science in Canada, and his neighbourhood's self-appointed expert appointed himself his adviser. An insults test, a bank testament, a country domiciled inside another one, and finally an IPO to put the tuition money into. Nobody had to be a fraud for this to go wrong — everyone was just too polite to say "that isn't the name of anything".
Episode 4: The Night the Light Went Out
The power cuts out, the bills pile up, and Tobi is out of excuses. Sitting in the dark, he stops waiting for things to get better and starts looking for a real way out. Late nights at the laptop lead him to Global Pathways, a virtual study abroad event where universities come to you. Sometimes the first step out is just showing up.
Episode 5: Two Winters
Her cousin in Manchester told her the part nobody posts: the twenty-hour work cap, the six hundred pound room, the winter. She went anyway — prepared instead of lucky, because the numbers were planned properly before she left.
