The episode discusses the murder investigation of an executive at Soylent Corporation in a dystopian New York City.
In a densely overpopulated, starving New York City of the future, NYPD detective Robert Thorn (Charlton Heston) investigates the murder of an executive at rations manufacturer Soylent Corporation.
