He is fired on the first day.He soon finds himself in Tent City, a place where those who are stuck in Dynamo City live. Some are there to get rich and some are just trapped. A local tells him that he can sell his dreams to the entertainment industry to receive the money he needs to exit.He goes to the network and bargains for 200 credits to sell his dreams. This will give him enough to take others with him out of the city. In an embarrassing and humiliating display, his memories are probed and his deepest secrets and feelings are displayed to the whole planet. In the end, he receives only 2 credits after all the fees they impose on him. He is furious but powerless to be removed from the facility.
