It is so white that under the harsh stage lighting most of the six assembled candidates have to squint. The candidates have been kept in cages in the dark most of the time for the past day, and this exacerbates their difficulty in coping with the intense light. But it is really because the system is optimized to the Meks, advanced autonomous robots, which are predominantly made of shiny steel and are, therefore, designed to process bright light more effectively. The candidates sit back-to-back strapped to a mechanical device that appears to be mounted on a carousel-like revolving platform. That is to say, there is a hexagonal slightly raised platform that can spin in the manner of an old-fashioned merry-go-round. The candidates are naked except for a metal collar and a narrow waist belt that are both capable of delivering a painful shock. The three candidates that one sees in the opening camera shot are women of various ages, one is seen head-on and the other two are in profile facing opposing directions. What they are sitting on is more a ledge than a seat, but they are strapped into the device, which has actuators that can raise, lower, or tilt the occupant into a reclined position. Their arms are immobilized, their heads held upright, and their legs are secured such that their thighs form a 90-degree angle viewed from overhead. They have rectangles of flesh colored tape over their mouths so that from a distance it does not appear they have lips. Suddenly a jaunty melody of electronic tones begins to play, and the voice of a sleek and stylish announcer droid, PARLEK-4, begins to speak over the music. "And welcome back for another exciting episode of 'So You Think You Know Your Mating Unit?', the game in which we test the arrogant assertion of humans that there is a special and infallible 'soul mate' connection between marital partners. Before we bring out our next contestant, let me just recommend an outstanding product called 'Sterling Chrome Wash.' Sterling works miracles and doesn't bead up like the other leading chrome washes. Alright then, J8, tell us about our next contestant." J8, a disembodied voice, speaks: "Our contestant calls himself 'Ted'. He and several of his familial units were just captured last week by the Department of Human Control, and he thinks he knows the being with whom he mates well enough to lay it all on the line in 'So You Think You Know Your Mating Unit?'" A sliding door opens, and we see a man. He is naked, and is hard and lean in the manner of one who lives a survival existence of work, evasion, and the sharing of meager stocks of food that must be hunted, gathered, and distributed between all members of the tribe. He has been shorn of all hair except his eyebrows and lashes. He is wearing the same metallic shock collar and belt as the six candidates. However, his shock belt has the addition of a small black box mounted to it. From the bottom side of the box, two wires had earlier emerged under their own power, and they secure themselves like vines to a tree-trunk down Ted's lower stomach, along the fold of his hip, and then disappear around the backside of his scrotum. Disconcertingly, though painlessly, the wires self-tapped into Ted's skin and plugged into his nerve tissue. The purpose of the box and leads is to monitor Ted's proximity to release through detection of subtle physiological cues, and to communicate this information to the control desk. While there is a patina of civility to the show, it is clear that the intention is to exact retribution on humanity through the application of humiliation. The Meks are students of what activities embarrass and demean humans, and they go to great lengths to maximize this humiliation. One way this is accomplished is to force the contestant to take the required games to the edge of orgasm before they are allowed move on to the next round, and the final round usually ends in orgasm. The sensors are hooked to a buzzer that signals to the contestant when they are allowed to stop, as well as letting the viewing audience know that the contestant was about to climax. Ted is wearing what look like goggles. However, the lenses are completely black. He cannot see what is directly in front of him. The goggles have tiny cameras mounted to them, and before Ted's eyes projections of gross angular shapes and a grid representing the floor are shown so that he can move about without falling down or running into anything. The objective of these high-tech goggles is to prevent the contestant from observing anything about each of the six candidates that might give him a clue as to their identities. Besides giving an indication of where obstacles and trip hazards are located, the goggles also, through the mysteries of machine technology, allow Ted to clearly see a hand crank and button that he must operate while all else is plunged in darkness. The hand-crank turns the carousel and the button allows him to control when it stops. This randomizes which candidate the contestant will come into contact with first. Because the order that one comes into contact with each of the candidates could theoretically influence the outcome, putting this in the hands of the contestant gives viewers confidence that the show's hosts are not setting up conditions to achieve a certain outcome. The goggle lens can be made transparent via a switching signal sent over a wireless link. This allows the producers to reveal to the contestant the selection that they made simultaneous to the unveiling to the viewing audience. This was all part of the building of climactic suspense and drama. The producers never showed the audience a camera shot that simultaneously depicted the contestant and the candidate he was evaluating in the same frame, though they did toggle between the contestant and candidates that may or may not have been being considering at the time. The camera pans in a loop showing each candidate in turn. As the view is being shifted between the contestant and the candidates he will consider in order to try to select his mate, PARLEK is speaking. "Let's review the rules of our game for first time viewers. Our contestant will be given three opportunities to correctly identify his mating unit from a collection of six candidates. This is a best two out of three contest. If the contestant correctly selects his mate from among the six candidates in at least two rounds, he will have a free-hu identification chip installed that will identify him as a self-owning human for life. He will also get one million Mekredits posted to that chip with which to start his new life. However, if our contestant does not make at least two correct picks then one of our lucky Arch-contestants will win the contestant, and can take him home as a pet or auction him off on M-bay. The arch-contestants must enter their guesses before the contestant makes his selection. In the case of a tie, a random number generator will select between the best performing arch-contestants." "We'll start play with one of my favorite games, and I hope one of yours. It's called, 'Does the Nose Know?'" The electromagnetic link on the hand-cuffs that join his wrists disengages and a red box in Ted's peripheral vision attracts his attention causing him to turn his head in that direction. As the red box reaches the center of his field of vision, a wheel-like hand-crank reminiscent of a water shut-off valve comes into view. It has a single spindle perpendicular to the wheel so that it can be easily cranked. Through the miracle of Mek-tech, he can only see the hand crank and a big red button below it labeled "Stop." Everything else is bathed in blackness. Ted cranks. It requires little effort. As Ted is cranking and then stopping the carousel, PARLEK speaks. "Humans say that a sophisticated sense of smell is one way in which they are superior to most Meks. In this game we test that claim as we discover just how well the contestant knows his mate. Our contestant, Ted, will have an opportunity to smell each of the six candidates in turn. Whichever candidate Ted selects, he will have to engage in sexual union with until the buzzer sounds to indicate that he is about to ejaculate. If Ted really knows his 'soul mate' this will be just another instance of copulation between them, but, if he doesn't, we may see a bit of the red face. Now if at any point he physically touches a candidate or engages in any other behavior, besides sniffing and smelling, that could aid in selecting a candidate, his shock belt and collar will be activated. Our home audience can see how Ted views the world via the picture-in-picture feature on their 3DTVs. You can see that all the candidates look like colorless and featureless angular shapes to Ted. The goggles only give Ted enough information to avoid inadvertently touching, or tripping on, the candidates. None of the candidates are wearing any kind of perfume or other artificial scent like cleansing products, it's just odor 'au naturel'." Ted depresses and holds down the stop button until the carousel comes to a complete stop. There is electronic music playing that gradually decays to silence to indicate the carousel has stopped. Once it stops completely, Ted lets his hand drop. The electromagnetic link is reengaged and his wrists snap together behind his back forcefully. While no great flexibility is required to touch his wrists behind his back, the abruptness of the motion hurts his shoulders. He shrugs and rolls the joint to make sure nothing is damaged. Ted walks forward. Two triangles that form an inverted "V" are interpreted to be thighs and the rectangular box above it, the torso. It is enough to let him know his proximity to the candidate. He approaches the first candidate, and leans in as close as he dares to sniff what seem to be the shoulder and neck area. This is no good. The scent is feint and smells mostly like nondescript skin and hair. He needs to go where the scent is most pungent. He moves his head down around what seems like the area where armpits should be. A triangle attaching to the torso rectangle is indication that he is at the pit. Now he does sense an odor, but is it his wife? The Meks had thoroughly hosed down the candidates the evening before, and so no acrid body odor has yet formed. There is one more chance. Ted kneels down putting his head near the inverted "V", and is almost certain that this is not his wife. The banter continues between the announcers. PARLEK speaks. "You know, J8, a lot of contestants are shy about getting down and sniffing the genitals, but I think Ted has made a good move by doing so. A woman's vagina has one of the highest concentrations of scent particles of anywhere on the body." "Just so, PARLEK, Ted doesn't seem optimistic about that first candidate. Let's see how he responds to the next." J8 says. Ted circles counter-clockwise and repeats his initial procedure with the second candidate. He doesn't think it is his wife, but is less certain in his ability to eliminate this candidate than the first. He reminds himself to keep track of who are the more and less likely candidates as he goes. It is a stress-filled environment and it would be easy to lose track. He only gets one chance. The third candidate is by far the most promising yet, and he is fairly certain he has found his wife. The fourth is perhaps the least likely of those so far. Ted begins to feel good about his chances until he gets to the fifth candidate. He can't tell the difference. He loiters as long as he is allowed, and tries to uncover some subtle clue that will allow him to differentiate this candidate from the third. He comes up with nothing. The final candidate is unlikely, and leaves him with a tough choice between candidate 3 and candidate 5. Ultimately, Ted's choice between the two is purely instinctual. Counting carefully, he walks around and stands before number 3. PARLEK speaks. "Meks, it looks like Ted has made his choice." The home audience cannot see who he has selected. The camera shot is solely on Ted. J8 speaks. "It looks like Ted's procreational unit is a little camera-shy. They are calling in the stimulator." A blonde girl jogs into the room that they call the Hexadome. The six-sidedness of the room's designation was apropos, but "dome" implied a grandiosity that was not present in the little white soundstage. The girl held her rather pendulous orbs to keep them from bouncing too frenetically. She had a pretty face and her long blond hair draped down in coils past her shoulders. J8 speaks. "It looks like they've called on Gina. She is a fan favorite. Viewers will recognize her not only as an occasional stimulator, but also as a candidate that has been the downfall of more than one contestant." The bosomy blonde kneels before the standing contestant. If Ted selected the right woman, then his wife now has a front-and-center seat for a show consisting of her husband getting aroused from the oral ministrations of a fair-haired beauty. Furthermore, if his wife is either candidate 2 or 4, she will also likely be watching the action. Gina takes Ted's cock in her soft hands and strokes the flaccid snake a few times before slurping the cockhead into her mouth. There is a reason they use Gina as a stimulator so regularly. She is exceedingly skilled with her mouth, and, thus, minimal airtime is wasted in preliminaries. As she catches a rhythm with her mouth, her curly hair bounces with each bob of her head. The once limp cock becomes turgid and eager. As Ted is being aroused, the chair of candidate 3 begins to move. Its lower edge moves forward and the chair tilts back as the height is simultaneously being adjusted. It ends up positioned so that candidate 3 is positioned like a woman in an old-fashioned gynecologist's exam chair. The height is adjusted so that she can easily be entered by the contestant from his standing position. It is too late to second guess his decision now. The camera shows Ted as he walks nearer the candidate. Gina's last onstage action is to align Ted's cock with the candidate's pussy so that he can push it into her. The viewing audience does not see the breaching of the woman. All they can see is an alabaster outer thigh and Ted's tentative hip motions as he attempts to work his newly formed erection into a pussy that is not yet lubricated. Gina leaves the way she came, with shapely buttocks bouncing as she jogs off stage. The camera shows Ted's face. He sighs and hangs his head. He now knows that he has made the wrong selection. However, the rules dictate he cannot stop the union until the alarm sounds to indicate he is suitably close to ejaculation. He gets a relatively mild shock from his belt, and realizes he has stopped his thrusts. PARLEK speaks, "Oh, and it looks like Ted knows he's made a wrong turn, but we still have to find out who he selected. That will be important for those of you who are playing the home game. We'll find out after these messages." They break for a commercial. The Meks don't get any titillation out of seeing humans have sex, they only like to see the part where the contestant is humiliated. Ted musters the strength to resume because not only will they start to shock him again more forcefully if he causes them dead airtime, but they will do the same to his wife and the others. He renews his thrusting hip work, and, as the woman has become more adequately lubricated, it becomes easier and, while he cannot admit it to himself, more pleasurable. Ted presses aside thoughts that the unknown woman he is now fucking is no more than 15 feet from his tormented wife, who may even be watching this spectacle. He tries to convince himself that maybe he is wrong, and that maybe this is his wife. But this woman does not envelop him snuggly as his wife does, and he knows with certainty that it cannot be her. He tries to have sexy thoughts just to speed along the process toward a conclusion. He increases the depth and vigor of thrusts. Even if his wife cannot see him repetitively penetrating this other woman, she must feel the tremors through the carousel mechanism by which his spouse is connected to the candidate he selected. Ted represses that thought as well, and thinks about the best sex he's ever had. He also thinks about his first time. He was 16 and the woman was much older, probably his mother's age. The two of them had been hiding out in a cave together evading the machine armies. This just made him think about the relentless Meks and the terror that their pursuit caused. He forced his thoughts back to sex. "Well, Meks, we are back from our commercial break and station identification." PARLEK says. "Bing." That is the bell signaling that the contestant is on the verge of release. Ted immediately withdraws. "Alright, Meks, let's see with whom our contestant was engaging in intercourse." PARLEK says. "Wah-Wah-Waahhhhh" J8 makes the noise simultaneous with the reveal. It is the signal indicating that the contestant did not select his mating unit. The camera shows Ted's face. He shakes his head slowly, and then begins to open his mouth in dazed confusion as if to speak. The image switches to the selected candidate. She is a woman of perhaps 55. Her blond hair is turning gray. She is roamy in the waist, heavy breasted, and pale. "I am so sorry... mmm..." The words fumble out of Ted, but then fail him. The teary eyed woman cannot speak because of the flesh colored tape covering her mouth, but she is trying to give a look of reassurance the best she can in her distraught state. J8 speaks. "Well, PARLEK, you have to give Ted credit for coming close. The candidate he selected was... his mother. So at least he picked a woman with a similar genetic makeup. On the other hand, if Ted goes free this may make for an awkward Christmas dinner. You might find it interesting to note that having intercourse with one's mother-in-law is taboo among most humans. Let's see where Ted's mating unit was actually located." The carousel starts turning slowly clock-wise, and the red-faced Mrs. Myers, Ted's wife's mom, moves away to Ted's left. It moves two spaces and stops. Ted's wife was candidate number 5. J8 speaks. "Yes that's right Meks, the mating unit was the candidate 5. How about that, PARLEK?" PARLEK: "Well, at least Ted did not pick candidate 6. Jay, tell us about the other Round 1 candidates." J8: "So, PARLEK, you mentioned candidate 6, who would have likely been an even more disconcerting pick for Ted than his mother. Candidate 6 was Ted's own mother, and humans consider having sex with one's mother to be among the most disturbing of sexual unions. We've got one other candidate with whom Ted is related. In the number 2 slot was his sister." The camera looks down at a brown haired girl of perhaps 21 years of age. She is lithe, tan, and small breasted. PARLEK: "Yes, she is a healthy specimen and right at peak breeding age. I think our home audience can expect to see her again in upcoming weeks. The next time, perhaps, she will be in the hot seat herself." J8: "That is certainly a possibility, PARLEK. Candidates 1 and 4 are not known to Ted, they were from our stables. Candidate 1 is Melinda; frequent viewers will recognize her as an occasional stimulator. Candidate 4 is Jack. He was our ultimate control candidate in this round. He, being a male of the species, would have represented a devastating upset had he been selected." PARLEK: "Jay, what do the rules say about a case in which the contestant picks a candidate of the same sex in this game?" J8: "Well, PARLEK, not much really changes. Ted would have still been required to have intercourse to the verge of climax, but it, obviously, would have had to have been an anal rather than a vaginal union. Of course, Ted would have instantly known that he made the wrong choice." Mek-World Reality TV PARLEK: "OK, Meks, Ted is being ushered out of the Hexadome because we need to reset for the next round. First time viewers should note that the candidates change each round, and so you may or may not see returning faces from the first round in the next. We'll break here for a commercial, and, when we come back,... Round 2." Ted is led back into the wings and the sliding door closes behind him. He is escorted by squat humanoid Meks with built-in electric human prods. These Meks are specially designed to capture and subdue humans. In the Hexadome, a door opens opposite the one through which Ted exited. The candidates' restraints are disengaged, and they climb down out of their seats. Several of them simultaneously try to rub feeling back into their own buttocks after sitting on the hard steel ledge and others move their legs in such a way as to get circulation flowing again. The chair units are not built for comfort, but are, instead, strictly utilitarian. There is to be an exchange of candidates. New candidates are brought into the room. Ted's wife, mother, and mother hug briefly and try to console each other despite their lack of ability to speak. Soon, however, the little triad is broken up. Some of the round 1 candidates, including Ted's wife, remain but are moved to new positions relative to each other. Other first round candidates are removed and replaced with new additions. All this transpires within the window of a three minute commercial break plus the little extra time derived by PARLEK's welcome back banter. This time all of the candidates are positioned in a reclined position, and thus look like they are in gynecological exam chairs with their feet up, and secured, in the stirrups. However, they are elevated such that their genitals are at face level to a standing man of Ted's height. PARLEK speaks. "Welcome back, Meks, we are ready for an exciting second round, but, before the game begins, I would like to recommend to you RoboCondos. These condos are affordable, ergonomic, and they even allow hu[man]-pets as long as they are potty-trained. That feature may come in handy for one lucky arch-candidate today if Ted doesn't turn things around in this segment of play. So, Jay, tell us about this game." J8: "It's simple really. Whereas the previous game put the contestant's sense of smell to the test, this one calls on the contestant to rely on another sense altogether. It's called 'Can you Taste it?', and it's a game that tests the contestant's ability to taste the difference between his wife and the other candidates. As before, Ted will determine a random starting point. Again he won't be able to see anything of an identifying nature. This time he will have five seconds per candidate to taste test their genitals. You'll note that he also has a tactile opportunity here as well, but he will only be able to take advantage of it through his lips and tongue. After he completes all of his five second samples, he will select the candidate he believes to be his mating unit. Now, you'll note that all the current candidates have monitor boxes and leads installed just like the contestant wore in the first round. That's because, once Ted selects a candidate, he will have to orally stimulate that candidate to the point of orgasm. These monitors allow our staff to ensure that there is no falsification of sexual climax. PARLEK, I think we are ready to begin." The camera switches to Ted. Just as at the start of the first round, he is standing in the doorway next to the hand crank and push button. He has the same goggles on that he cannot see through. This time as he approaches an inverted "V" of a candidate's crotch he will see a red square centered in the internal display of the goggles. If he is too much to the left or right, or too high or low, the square will skew into a rectangle and this will be his cue to re-center himself. As he gets closer and closer, the square will become smaller and smaller until his mouth is at the candidate's genitals, at which time it will be a point and then will disappear altogether. As before, Ted spins and then stops the carousel, using the music as his guide. PARLEK: "Alright, Meks, he is making his way to the first candidate." The contestant walks up to the first candidate. After the first round, his mind is swimming with the disturbing possibilities of whose labia and clitoris he might be about to put his mouth upon. Besides the obvious, and chillingly awkward, candidates from the first round such as his or his wife's mother or his sister, he imagines others. There are always the captives he knows, but there are also strangers with whom he can imagine being mortified to engage in such intimate behavior. These include nuns, the young, the geriatric, or those who are not mentally competent to deal with the stresses of such a situation. Ted dismisses concerns about the pediatric or geriatric because he has never heard of the machines using such candidates. He guesses that the Meks' reluctance to do so has to do with their aesthetic inclinations or the fact that such candidates might be too easily discounted by the contestant. On the other hand, the Meks love to use taboo candidates whenever such candidates cannot easily be distinguished from the mating unit. Ted is not sure that the machines understand why certain candidates are taboo, and he is certain that it is not the titillation of what is taboo that drives the Meks to use such candidates. Rather, the thrill for the Meks is derived from knowing they have more greatly embarrassed and debased the human contestant, and thus affirmed their superiority. Ted pauses, takes a deep breath, and leans into the first set of sex organs. He decides he must be as thorough as he can be, embarrassing or not. He, therefore, runs his tongue the length of the woman's slit. He tastes, feels, and makes mental notations. He spends most of his time on the clit and labia trying to visualize them from the tactile sensation. The woman is not aroused in the slightest, and, in fact, she seems to be squirming against his violating tongue to the limited extent her restraints allow. Ted takes the latter as supporting evidence that this is not his wife. He confidently eliminates candidate 1 based upon the fact that she has a much bigger clit that his wife as well as a much bushier pubic patch. Candidate 2 is also summarily dismissed. She is extremely wet and seems to push against Ted's tongue to the degree she is able. Unlike candidate 1, Ted has the benefit of flavors other than purely sweaty musky skin. He can taste candidate 2's drenched sex, and it does not taste like his wife. Furthermore, his wife is not the kind to get extremely aroused from being subjected to humiliation and embarrassing spectacle. Candidate 3 is even less likely. Ted imagines her as an older woman who has given birth to a dozen babies, and perhaps hypercephalic ones at that. Candidate 4 is a small woman. While his wife is fairly petite, this girl is tiny judging from the short distance between the top of her slit and the rough puckered sphincter that he inadvertently tongues because he does not expect such a compact space. Ted's anxiety rises. He has just two candidates left. If neither is more promising than the previous four, he will be at a loss to make his selection. He tries to reassure himself that he has just narrowed it down. Number 5 seems to be an obvious reject. His tongue travels over rough tissue that he imagines to be scars. It is someone who has had surgery. Again he presses out the nervous thought that he might have missed his wife. He visualizes her genitals, and reconsiders whether any of the women he rejected could have been her. Could he have misinterpreted some clue and gotten it wrongly stuck in his mind? He gets to the final candidate, and takes a sigh of relief. It is her, he is certain of it. The taste, the smell, the feeling are all familiar to him. She does not fight the probing tongue like candidate 1 or seek to satisfy herself upon it like candidate 2. Rather this woman seems at ease with him. The alarm sounds signaling the end of his five seconds. He disengages, but does not stand back. Instead, he nods his head in the direction of the woman to indicate that he has made his choice. PARLEK: "Well, Jay, it looks like Ted has made his choice, and, when we come back from station identification, we'll see if it's the right choice." Ted is allowed to begin the act of orally satisfying the woman he knows must be his wife during the commercial break because the Meks find the sex act monotonous and only want to see the climactic reveal. The only reason the game requires the contestant to complete the act is to enhance the awkwardness- particularly if the contestant is wrong. Ted knows what pleasures his wife, and begins to devote his efforts to bringing her to climax as quickly as possible. It does briefly occur to him that this might be his last opportunity to be with his wife, and maybe he shouldn't rush. Ultimately, however, he can't subject her to a prolonged ordeal, though he does take efforts to service her lovingly and mindfully even as he focuses on the points that he knows will bring this torment to a conclusion. Despite the stressors, it takes relatively little time to make the woman moist. In short order she is wriggling slightly. Not as the first woman had, who seemed to be trying to break away and bolt, but more like someone beginning to experience the involuntary tremors that are precursors to orgasmic pleasure. By the end of the commercial break the woman is moaning in a manner that can be heard through her taped mouth. The orgasm she experiences is a mixture of pleasure and pain because of the restraints. Her whole body is wracked with sharp spasms that cause the tight bands to dig into her flesh. Her chest is rising and falling rapidly, and she strains to get enough oxygen in through her nose to satisfy the requirements of all of the muscles that are involuntarily tensed and relaxed. The buzzer sounds indicating that the Meks are satisfied that the woman is not faking. PARLEK: "Well, Jay, Ted seemed pretty confident about this choice. Even throughout the act, he did not show any concern that this might not be his mating unit." J8: "Yes, PARLEK, he held nothing back on this one." PARLEK: "Let's reveal which candidate Ted selected." Ted's goggles clear as the home audience is shown the woman, still breathing hard, that they know from the first round is his wife. Even with her mouth taped shut, one can see she is pleased. Ted rubs his head gently against her thigh. It is the only show of affection and reassurance he can manage with her suspended high above the floor and his hands locked behind his back. He would have kissed her, but she was too high in the air. PARLEK: "Well, Jay, it looks like this game is going to go the distance. Before we break to set up for the third and final round, tell us about the women Ted didn't select." J8: "Candidate 1 is a tribal elder who was captured with others in Ted's tribe. She taught the children of the tribe, including Ted's, about religion and morality. As you could probably tell, she did not seem to find the game enjoyable. I don't think she likes a casual acquaintance putting his mouth on her sex organs. Some human women are like that. Candidate 2 you will recognize from Round 1 in the roll of stimulator girl. It's Gina. She also seems a little disappointed, but for different reasons. You know the candidates from our stables get perks for stumping our contestants as an incentive for them to work hard. Candidate 3, you will remember from round 1, is Ted's own mother." The camera reveals a topless upper body and head shot for each of the candidates as they are described. Ted realizes that the woman he thought of as an old woman who had probably had a dozen big-headed children was, in fact, his own mother. This is all the more demoralizing because Ted is an only child. "Candidate 4 is Sung Mi, one of the candidates who lives in the stables. She was originally a contestant, but the arch-contestant who won her loved the show so much he donated her to our use. And the final candidate is Erika. Erika was originally the stable candidate Erik, but during a period in which we had a relative dearth of females entering the stables, he was given gender reassignment surgery. Erika is not one of our prettier or more coveted females, but she works hard." PARLEK: "All right, let's break for commercials, and, when we come back, the final round." The change over process is similar to the first one with a flurry of activity and re-organization of candidates as soon as Ted is moved behind closed doors. However, the final round requires a much more significant staging change, but it is almost entirely automated. The seats the women sat on in the first and second rounds fold up and retract into a central pillar that drops down until its top is flush with the stage floor. For an instant the room appears to be just an empty hexagonal white room. Then the entire revolving floor area begins to rise up out of the floor such that it looks like there is a hexagonal stage in the middle of the room. When it gets to about four foot in height, it stops rising. There is a circular hole about three feet up from the floor on each of the six sides of the stage. It seems to be lined with a rubber-like grommet, but one can see these orifices adjust in diameter indicating they are some kind of high-tech self-adjusting material. Once the stage-like hexagon, called the hexbox, is up, each of the six triangular wedges opens up like a clamshell by a hinge near the center pillar. The segments are empty except for what looks like the frame of a racing motorcycle covered with supports, actuators, and restraints similar to those seen in the gyno exam chairs from Round 2. One candidate will be encased in each of the six sections. At the command of Mek producers, workers from the stables assist in getting each person into that candidate's respective section. The candidates are positioned as if they are the rider of a high performance motorcycle leaning forward over the gas tank. They have to straddle a padded central pillar that they lean their chests down onto, and their knees rest in scoop-shaped stirrups. Once each candidate's knees are in the stirrups and they are lying down on the angled pillar, they are secured in place. Then the entire unit to which the candidate is strapped is pushed back toward the center until it locks into place, and then the lid is closed back over them. The machine makes slight adjustments such that when the lid is shut, the mouth of the candidate will be aligned with the orifice. The candidate's forehead presses against a rounded padded guide that forms to their skull, and a chin cup rises up and secures each candidate's head in place. This prevents the candidate from looking out, and even if the contestant ducked down to peek inside, all they would see is the darkness of the inside of the candidate's mouth. Each candidate is immobilized to the point that they can only control their lips, tongue, and jaw. The rest of the activity must come from the contestant's movement. The candidates have no way to control the contestant's action. Because of concern for damage to the contestant (who may end up being some Mek's prize) brainwave and physiological monitors linked to the shock collar won't let candidates bite down on an offending member that is causing them to gag or choke. Once all the candidates are in and the covers are closed down over them, the center of the hexbox begins to rise such that instead of being flat topped the "hexbox" angles from the center down to all sides. This involves an expansion of the material that previously seemed rigid, but which is able to "stretch". This expansion of the external geometry is done so that the rear end of the device the candidates are secured to can up-end such that the candidates will be angled downward with their heads lower than their butts. The whole purpose of this convoluted process is so that the candidates' throats are aligned in a position like that of a sword-swallower with respect to the upward-angled erect member that is to be inserted through the hole. This means the contestant's member can breach the candidate's throat though usually at great discomfort to the candidate. The candidate must be ready to swallow the violating engorged flesh. PARLEK: "And we are back. Jay, this is a close game. Tell us about our final round." J8: "Yes, PARLEK, it all comes down to this final round. You'll note that Ted is not wearing goggles this time. That is because each of our candidates is enclosed in the hexbox. Ted cannot see them, nor can they see him. The object of this game is to see if the contestant can tell the difference between oral pleasure delivered by his mating unit from that of the five other candidates. The candidate again spins and stops the hexbox. He then inserts his procreational unit into each of the orifices in turn. He will have up to ten seconds in each. After trying them all, he chooses the orifice behind which he thinks his mate is located. He then moves his member in and out of the selected orifice until such time as he achieves orgasm and ejaculates into the select candidate's mouth. Let's watch as he spins the box." Ted knows that there was no way to strategically manipulate the spinning process to his advantage. He has no way of knowing who is in any given segment at the start. He, therefore, just tries to minimize the spinning motion so as to prevent making his wife any more nauseous than he has to. He spins the crank slowly and briefly and then applies the stop button gradually. As he walks to the first section of the hexbox, he considers how he should go about trying to tell one mouth from another, and tries to remember what he can about his wife's oral performance. Questions arise such as whether he remembers how deep he can put his cock down his wife's throat before she begins to gag and choke? He roughly does, but he doesn't know how thick the wall of the box is or how his wife's position will affect the depth to which he can comfortably stick his member. He doesn't want to get a preconceived notion stuck in his head that will prove his downfall. J8: "Well, it looks as though Ted is not quite ready to play so they're going to send out Sung-mi to be his stimulator." The little naked Korean woman runs out. She has a sweet face, but Ted is happy to see some subtle lines and crow's feet as the only indication that she is actually an adult. Her body looks pre-pubescent and, from a distance she has the face of a youthful girl. Sung-mi doesn't go to her knee or knees, but rather shows her great flexibility by squatting. She uses one hand to simultaneously support the base of Ted's shaft and lightly cup his testicles, and with the other she lifts the head of his flaccid unit and sucks it into her mouth vigorously. She then strokes him with her hand a couple times as she sucks just at the head. Then as he begins to stiffen, in a surprising maneuver, she lets go with both hands and reaches around to grab one of Ted's buttocks in each hand. She then pulls him forward to impale her throat. She is essentially directing him to throat fuck her. He is stiff in a minute. Sung-mi then stands and takes him arm-in-arm (his arms still being cuffed behind his back) and directs him up to the hexbox while reaching across his front to continue to stroke him with her free hand. Her sole remaining task now is to align Ted's cock head with each of the orifices because his hands are not under his control. Sung-mi subtly strokes the sensitive underside of Ted's cock as she aligns his member with the first hole. When Ted looks at her she smiles coyly and Ted suspects she must be a nymphomaniac. He pushes his engorged staff into the box and tries his utmost to figure out what stands out that will help him make a determination. The lips close around his shaft, and he can feel the tongue on the underside of his member. The mouth seems neither particularly eager nor repulsed. Despite his humane inclination to not cause too much discomfort, Ted decides he must be thorough in the interest of gaining as much information as he can. His future depends upon getting this right. With that in mind, he slowly but methodically plunges his cock in with the intent of pressing the front of his pelvis against the box so as to maximize his depth of penetration. His wife once gave him the deep-throat long ago in the early days before they were married. He, therefore, figures he can eliminate any candidate who can't manage it. He pushes his member in, but before his unit reaches its maximum possible depth it stops. He presses, but it just smashes the head of his penis uncomfortably. He backs it off and tries again, but with the same result. He can feel subtle vibrations caused by what is most certainly a severe gagging reflex. He even thinks he can hear, ever so faintly, the throaty wet gurgling noise resulting from an adverse response to an offending object being rammed into the back of the throat. Mek-World Reality TV Sung-mi leads him to the next side of the hexbox holding and absentmindedly fingering his member as if it were a leash by which she is showing a dog. The second mouth does not close around his member, and displays a clear reluctance. It also cannot take the full length of Ted's manhood. The third is quite different from the first two. It not only closes around his shaft, but also sucks and laps at its underside. When he presses his member deep inside, with an adept swallowing action, this candidate is able to take his full length without the slightest difficulty. He does have trouble extracting himself because of the lusty suction imposed by the mouth. He eliminates this one just as easily as the second. He disfavors the first candidate as well, though he hopes he hasn't given too much weight to the inability to take his full length. The fourth mouth is largely indistinguishable from the first in his mind, except it is able to accept his full length -though only upon the second try. The tongue does seem to tap at his shaft as he retracts it and he wonders if it isn't a sign from his wife. The fifth candidate presents an unambiguous sign. This candidate sucks Ted nine times over the course of time he is in the candidate's mouth. The first three times are of short succession in rapid interval; then there is a pause; then three more with each suck being of a longer duration; then another pause, and, finally, three more that are brief like the first batch. Humans sometimes use an ancient code that they learn to deal with situations in which they are not able to speak verbally, such as when they are in Mek-prisons and can only communicate through taps on the wall. The three letters formed through sucking action were "S-O-S". That meant "help". No one knew why. That knowledge was long lost. The fifth candidate swallows Ted's shaft on the first attempt, though not with the practiced ease of the third candidate. The last mouth is lackluster. The lips close around his shaft, but the tongue lays limp, and the mouth cannot take Ted's full length despite three opportunities in which Ted back it off and retried. PARLEK: "Well, Meks, Ted's selection here will determine his fate, and we'll be back after these messages to see which candidate he chose." Ted's mind races as he makes his deliberations. He favors 5, but what if the signal was a trap. He thinks he can eliminate candidates 2, 3, and 6, but between the others he agonizes. Did his wife know the ancient code of Morse? Almost all humans, except the few who were free, learned it, but, given its disuse, many forgot it. On the other hand, "S-O-S" was perhaps the most well known signal, and even those who forgot all else might remember it. Ted suspects that might be the case for his wife, as he is certain it is true of him. In the end, he stands before the section containing candidate 5. PARLEK speaks. "And now back to the exciting conclusion of our show. Well, as you can see, Ted selected the fifth candidate. J8, what's the feeling down there on the floor?" The camera switches from PARLEK to a wide angle view of the room with Ted standing in front of a section. Numbers are superimposed above each of the sections for the home viewers to keep track. J8: "Well, PARLEK, Ted does not seem as confident as he did in the last round. I'll tell you, I've seen this game stump a lot of contestants, almost as many as the "Does he know her anus?" game. We'll just have to see how he does. First, the rules state that Ted must satisfy himself to completion in the mouth of the candidate he selected. If Ted picked incorrectly, this may be a little awkward." PARLEK: "Yes, not to mention for the mate, Jay." PARLEK likes to show that he has insight into human nature. He double-majored in the Zoology of humans along with Speech Communication at Universal Programming Station 54, but, as it only took 80 milliseconds for him to master all known knowledge of the subject, Meks often discounted the degree as a rudimentary vocational program. Ted moves forward and sticks his erect member into the orifice. As he thrusts and the candidate sucks, Sung-mi cups and rubs Ted's testicles. Despite the humiliating environment, this combination of oral and tactile stimulation feels outstanding. He doesn't know if it is his wife or not, but he is heartened by the comfort and enthusiasm with which the candidate sucks him. Ted's member explodes with four progressively waning shots of thick milky load. He hears a little cough as the recipient seems to have been caught off guard by the force with which Ted's first pulse hit the back of the throat. As he extracts his unit from the box, it is already beginning to grow limp and a rope of thick saliva mixed with his essence hangs like the cable on an ancient suspension bridge between his member and the orifice. As Sung-mi backs Ted up to his mark for the cameras, the cable stretches to an improbable two feet before breaking away and soiling the front of the hexbox under the orifice. PARLEK: "Well, that bell confirms that our contestant did complete ejaculation. Now let's hear about the candidates, Jay." J8: "The reveal this time will be a little different. We will first reveal the five candidates that Ted didn't select, in random order." Those watching their 3DTV's at home see the superimposed numbers alternately plump and light up in what appears to be a random sequence. Each number has a tone that corresponds to it. That is, a series of "bleeps" and "bloops" correspond to the highlighting of the various numbers. Finally, the process stops with the number 2 highlighted. J8: "And the computer picks candidate 2 first. So let's see who number 2 is." A split image appears; on one side is a fixed picture of the candidate that looks like a statue in three dimensions, and the other side shows footage of the candidate in the box. And that is Jack. Jack is from our stable of males. He's new to our show, and isn't broken in yet. You can see how inert he is in the replay. The candidates from the stables receive great benefits such as better food and clean water if they can stump the contestants, and so most go to great lengths to be competitive." Jack is a middle-aged man of about Ted's age. His head is shaved, and, like Ted, he looks like a recent capture. He has not yet atrophied from his time in captivity. PARLEK: "For those who don't know much about the idiosyncrasies of humans, most are quite particular about the sex of the individuals with whom they mate. The majority only voluntarily engage in sexual union with those of the opposite sex, a number prefer those of their own sex, but only a relatively few are indifferent to the sex of their mating unit. Most humans find it humiliating to have to make union with those of the sex that is not preferable to them." J8: "That's right, PARLEK, but with a little more training we will get Jack broken in yet. Let's see who our next candidate is." The same process repeats, but this time the highlighted number is 6. "And number 6 is our next candidate. You may remember 6 from the first round in which it was revealed that she is Ted's sister." PARLEK engages in banter. "Ah, Jay, familial relatives are another category with whom must humans are reluctant to mate. As you can see from the footage, she is not at all enthusiastic. Let's see who the next candidate is, Jay." The numbers start alternating between the three remaining options. It stops at 3. J8: "Candidate 3 is one of our crowd pleasing favorites, Vicki. Vicki has been in our stables for five years." Vicki is a short-haired brunette with cocoa-colored skin and a curvaceous figure. Her statuesque photo shows her donning a friendly, almost wanton, grin. In the replay one can see her jaw muscles tense and the skin over her throat stretch and contract as she takes Ted's manhood orally. PARLEK: "Well, Jay, it looks like we are down to just two non-selected candidates, and we've not yet seen Ted's mating unit. The tension builds." The numbers flip between 1 and 4 with a monotonous alternation of tones. When the process ends, number 1 is highlighted. PARLEK: "Tell us, Jay, who is candidate 1." J8: "Well, let me first say that candidate 1 was selected in an earlier round..." J8 lets the tension build. "Candidate 1 is Ted's... mother." The replay footage shows little activity beyond the occasional swallowing motion carried out to drain the saliva build-up, except for a sudden violent gagging shudder when Ted tries to breach the throat. PARLEK: "And, Meks, we are now down to the wire. It's time to reveal candidate 4. If 4 is Ted's wife, one lucky arch-contestant will go home with a new hu-pet. If not, Ted is a free human." An extended moment passes before the candidate 4 replay footage begins. "Wah-Wah-Waaaah." J8 speaks. "And that sound tells us that Ted chose poorly." The woman in the replay and whose picture appears in the split screen is Ted's wife. PARLEK: "So which candidate was fed our contestant's semen, Jay?" J8: "That is Sam. Sam is a rare specimen indeed, but one of the most successful candidates in our stables with respect to deceiving contestants. You'll note that Sam appears to be a female of the species from the waist up, but is actually a transgender." The candidate has a dark, almost black, skin tone, smallish but feminine breasts, a cherubic face that seems disjoint with her lean body, and would be considered a pretty girl most any man were it not for a monstrous penis that, in its flaccid state, is still approximately eight inches long. PARLEK: "And there you have it, Ted, like many before him, fell victim to the skilled role-playing of Sam, the most successful transgender in our stables. Jay, who won Ted?" J8 replies: "S75R is our winner. S75R correctly guessed which candidate our contestant would select in both the first and second rounds. ROK7 only picked correctly in the second round, and, unfortunately, YQ42 came in dead last with zero correct guesses." PARLEK speaks: "Tell us a little about what S75R wins." J8 responds. "S75R gets to take the human home. You know, not only do humans make good pets, but a lot of Meks forget that you can train them to do all sorts of tricks and menial chores. And this one is a fine looking specimen, indeed." PARLEK continues the banter. "So do you think S75R will train it?" J8: "No. You know, I was talking to S7 in the green room during the break, and S7 said that the plan if she won was to breed youngsters. She apparently has a female already and will try to get a license to mate the two of them. There is a big market for hu-pets these days. She might just be able to retire." PARLEK: "OK, Jay, we are going to have a look down in the hexadome as we close. There you can see the humans engaging in their tearful goodbyes as our losing contestant is forced to leave in defeat." The camera looks down on Ted, Ted's wife, his mother, and his sister. They are part of an extended family that was captured together. They engage in a communal hug. Ted's wife is having trouble standing because her knees have gone weak. She is sobbing. Soon the doors slide open and Meks enter to forcibly separate the losing contestant from his grieving family. The shot returns to the dapper Mek named PARLEK-4. PARLEK speaks: "Please let me remind all you Meks out there to spay or neuter your humans. Until next time, goodnight everybody." The screen goes blank for an instant before the loud theme music of "Are You Smarter than a Chipper - Shredder?" blares to life.
