Episode overview
Who wants to go to the theatre? The cast transforms their flat into a stage for Jay's play, ""The Bedroom."" The play is about his true-life experience and how he felt at age 17 without his father. He confesses to the cast that he had to go to court against his father so that his stepfather could legally adopt him. His birth father ends up sending him a letter while in London and the two plan to meet up sometime during his 5-month stay in the brisk city. The rest of the cast helps out with his performance by operating the lights and giving moral support. When he finishes his performance, both his acting and writing abilities astound the rest of the cast and the other guests.
