Better Off Ted
Overview
Ted, a principled manager in the R&D division of Veridian Technologies, grapples with the ethical dilemmas posed by his avant-garde workplace. While he admires his ambitious boss, Veronica, and works alongside quirky colleagues Lem, Phil, and Linda, Ted begins to question the firm's outrageous experiments. His affection for the job wanes as he witnesses the company’s extreme measures, including a plan to cryogenically freeze one of his scientists for research. As the bizarre inventions pile up, Ted must navigate the murky waters of corporate ethics and personal integrity.
