Hero participates in a test of scary game as a volunteer since he was lack of money to travel back United States. At the beginning of this game, hero just find the whole experience is interesting and funny, while the experiment continues, the premier excitement and expectance gradually translate into unease and anxiety.

The AI observes and collects his information during the process, and learned how to scare him deeply step by step. The ending of this episode is open and hard to tell if hero is dead or not .
The biggest highlight of this episode is the limit and difference between virtual and reality. When technology gets more and more intelligent and can provide specific information for human's hearing, tactile, olfactory and vision. How do we distinguish the reality from the virtual reality. More worse, how can we tell we are live or not if AI can create an intelligent duplicate of me.
