The sterile air of the corporate conference room feels less like an office and more like a cage to intern Josh. His task seems simple: subjectively test a new line of high-end silicone baby bottle nipples for his impossibly commanding boss, Isabelle, and the lead designer, Lena. But the moment Lena's dark, predatory gaze locks onto his, Josh knows this isn't standard product development. What begins as a bizarre, intimate oral-sensory test soon spirals into a full-scale psychological evaluation. As Josh is forced to catalog every sensation from the subtle give of the silicone to the warm, cloying taste of milk his professional dignity crumbles. The line between research subject and captive dissolves, especially after he gives a "e;subjective human response"e; so unguarded it reveals a deep, shameful compliance he never knew he possessed. His 'enthusiastic cooperation' earns him a promotion, a hefty bonus, and a frightening new role: Product Reliability Specialist for a niche market focused on adult infantilism. Now confined to a nursery-themed workspace, his attire has changed to a locked bib and a thick, rustling nappy, and his tools are custom-made pacifiers and fleece sleepers. Every humiliating moment is captured by a blinking babycam, a constant threat of exposure used to enforce his silence and submission. When Isabelle and Lena casually order an adult-sized high chair and bouncer for "e;The Restriction Series,"e; Josh knows his new career is a life sentence. Trapped, isolated, and utterly exposed, he is forced to crawl across the office floor in a humiliating demonstration of "e;mobility,"e; his professional ambition slowly being smothered by the suffocating weight of his own shameful, undeniable surrender. The Restriction Series is a chilling descent into corporate-mandated degradation, where compliance is rewarded, humiliation is product research, and the only way out is to embrace the shame.
