Bakar is just like any other willing participant of the rat race; scurrying in vain for the ultimate career ladder lift; not necessarily envied but constantly envious of those around him. In his pursuit for perfection, he chances upon what he thinks is an embodiment of "True Automation" - the "Tru-Fridge" unit.
Much to his delight, his automated fridge puts his rich neighbour, Mr Wang, in an envious spin. In a kiasu fit, Mr Wang buys the whole range of automated household electrical products from Trumation Ltd to one-up Bakar.
It would have been just that - a spat between two neighbours if there wasn't something more sinister behind the shiny facades of the most "efficient" household products ever seen.
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? As they say, Use Them at Your Own Risk ...
