Further details
Dogs and ethnic minorities have a very bad track record. So when a clip involving Mobeen and an Alsatian goes viral, it's a disaster. Aks is drawn in by internet fame, while Mobeen tries to see if the spark between him and Miss Aitken (Aks's teacher) is worth pursuing.
The past finally catches up with our hero though, leaving him with some very difficult decisions to make.
This series finale changes the game forever.
