But when a spooky game with an upturned glass gets out of hand, the lights go out and a mysterious presence makes herself known... Birthday Begum - 70-year old Hasina has waited all day in the minicab office for her selfish granddaughters to take her out on her birthday. When a fairy godson turns up and grants her three wishes, Hasina summons her granddaughters, and gives them a frightening vision of the future.

Two groups of young people from the rival tribes meet, and have to decide who gets to call the derelict minicab office home. North West Side Story - NW Cars in Cricklewood is closing down, to be replaced by an Uber office.
