The protagonist, Mark Scout, undergoes the procedure to escape the grief of his wife's death for eight hours a day. However, the show quickly reveals that this "escape" creates a new form of victimhood. The "Innie" (the workplace persona) is essentially a slave—a consciousness that never sleeps, never leaves the office, and has no concept of the outside world. The Corporate Panopticon
The ominous, distant thrum of building machinery moving through the subwoofer.
