In his pursuit for perfection, he chances upon what he thinks is an embodiment of "True Automation" - the "Tru-Fridge" unit.

The present and the future collide with a warning from the future of the perils of a Trumation Nation. Mankind, in the future, has been compromised and it is now up to Bakar to change mankind's easy acceptance of their automated "helpers", before it is too late. Is success ever a choice?
