Singapore boasts one of the highest rates of homeownership in the world with about 9 in 10 people owning the home they live in. Yet, homeless people still exist.

In the finale of the series, we follow our homeless individuals as they try to get a permanent roof over their heads and witness the unexpected roadblocks they face on their road out of homelessness.
