Written by Paul Beale, directed by Garfield Reid. Starring Keith (Shebada) Ramsay, Andrea (Delcita) Wright, Donald Thompson, Shermaine Wisdom, Trudy Campbell and Maxwell Grant.
Surrogacy is not the most popular means for a married couple to have children, nonetheless it has caught on well in the last twenty years and Ranny and Thelma Jones are the latest to be forced to try it. Ranny (Donald Thompson) is in the middle of two campaigns, one to win a seat in parliament and the other to get children with his wife Thelma (Shermane Wisdom). Even with supposedly good ballots, Thelma is unable to concieve and this creates problems in the marriage, so they turn to Dr First (Trudy Campbell) a gynecologist renowned only to them. The very prolific Delcita (Andrea Wright) is the surrogate chosen by Dr First and the couple end up with the shock of their lives after Delcita comes to live with them. During this child bearing saga, the Driver (Keith Ramsay) is employed as a personal chauffeur and quickly finds himself driving a family to ruins. The goings on in the Joneses household was made even more dramatic with the arrival of thelma's visually impaired dad, James (Maxwell Grant) with whom she does not see eye to eye.
