Part 1/9:
The Deteriorating Office Life of Vincent
In a seemingly typical day at the office, Vincent, a manager, finds himself at the butt-end of a sudden and shocking assault by a new intern, who retaliates to a rude coffee request by beating him with their laptop. The incident takes a toll not just on Vincent but also leads to the office manager ceasing the hiring of interns due to a claimed spike in workplace stress.
After the viral incident, Vincent tries to gloss over the situation despite the underlying tension, assuming everyone's curious gaze is still focused on him. This pressure leads him down a spiral of self-exploration through a dating app and a collective, social media cry for empathy, blatantly fabricating a narrative to gain attention.
