Here you've to put, to retrieve information about episodes, this line:
IMDb.update(serie, 'episodes')
> title = serie['episodes'][1][4]['title']
> plot = serie['episodes'][1][4]['plot']
With the 'update' call, the above lines works, with IMDbPY 4.0.

Some considerations:
- update to 4.0; 3.6 is way too old.
- instead of 'episodes', in the update call, you can use 'episodes cast',
if you need also the complete cast of the episodes.
- beware that accessing ['plot'] you take for grant that it exists,
but it may be not. Using .get('plot') would be safer.
More or less the same is true with season and episode numbers (1 and
4, in your example).
In the imdb.helpers module there are the sortedSeasons and sortedEpisodes
functions, useful to manage safely series seasons/episodes.
Bye!
