Synopsis The episode focuses on racial conflicts that arise at Veridan. The episode begins with the realization that Linda has a new boyfriend, which comes as a surprise to Ted, who acts as if he is not bothered with the matter. The scene then shifts to Lem and Phil, who work at the laboratory. When Phil leaves to get a cup of tea, the lights in the laboratory goes off because of motion sensors that only turn on the lights when light reflects from the skin of a white person. Ted reports this matter to Veronica, and subsequently Lem and other black employees march into her office in contempt. Veridan’s solution to the problem is to hire white minimum wage employees who would follow the black employees wherever they go for purposes of switching on the lights. Ultimately, the company reverts to motion sensors that detect all employees (Better off Ted, 2015).
