At the end of the day, the employees of MegaCorp clock out. Dad is the only employee who loses consciousness after this event. All the other employees must run MegaCorp’s gauntlet to survive until their next shift. The gauntlet consists of running through robotic centaurs shooting Greek fire, death in the form of amoeba, and regrets that have been embedded with razor wire . Ninety percent do not make it out of the gauntlet alive. But MegaCorp is not concerned by their high turnover rate. The positions that open up due to the deaths of their employees are highly sought after and easy to fill. But Dad will never lose his job. Because Dad is a dad. And dads are in demand and impossible to replace. This makes Dad untouchable.
