Hello rh0dium,
Client.objects.filter() returns you a QuerySet instance which you have
to iterate to get all objects. Thus the commented line will generate
an error, I think so.
Instead you should use Client.objects.get() to get the model instance.
A QuerySet is a list of model instances.

Please post the error message with the full source code next time. :)
