Capheus: Drives the Safest Bus in Nairobi


Recommended Posts

I thought I'd open a character thread for Cspheus "Vann Damme" because like a lot of story arcs his runs through the season and it would be nice to discuss it without fearing spoiling people for future episodes.

We know he had a tough background but do you guys think his ever present positivity/optimism is a genuine characteristic or a coping mechanism? Right from the beginning with Riley we could tell she had this cloud hanging over her head but the depth of Capheus' personal struggles surprised me. Yet he wakes up every morning, telling his mother that "today is going to be a great day". I think it's a character strength, I wouldn't want him to lose it.

 

Cluster relations: I loved his friendship with Riley. Despite sharing an intense introspective moment with Sun, and starting a relationship with Will, her connection to Capheus seemed the most honest. She opened up to him first about her husband and daughter. And she's the only one (I think) who visited Nairobi just for the sake of it: Sun and Will were there to help him out of a bind or another. No, I'm mistaken, Kala visited him for a chat as well, and I sensed a romantic attraction from him (probably unrequited). I hope we avoid cluster triangle drama though (or if we count Rajan, a quadrangle drama). What I'm looking forward to though, is a visit to Lito's movie set, Capheus' enthusiasm would be off the charts.
