After two decades of controlling the world’s Virtual Reality market, MDI and its founder, Douglas McKinney, are in complete financial ruin. His toughest rival, multi-billionaire Blake Harper, founder of HarperSoft, is making a quick stop to buy what is left of MDI on his way to Tokyo for a five-day trade summit/mini-vacation. It has also been agreed that during their brief meeting, Harper will be buying one other thing: namely, McKinney’s entire identity as a human being.

Harper’s legal guru, world-renown corporate attorney Sherri Prentiss, has choreographed every detail of both this acquisition and their Japanese excursion and tries to make quick work of the meeting. McKinney and his attorney, Magdalene Walsh, offer little resistance to the takeover.

But will this be so quick and easy a deal?
