Transaction

Following his divorce, Simon elects to abandon human contact and saturates the store with advanced AI systems that dominate every corner. The ensuing nightmare forces each person present to reveal their most negative impulses, exposing the worst in everyone collectively.

Bleep Bleep is a programme presented in a single‑episode format. As part of its overall catalogue, this instalment delivers a concise story that unfolds within the confines of one episode, offering viewers a self‑contained narrative that fits neatly into the series' episodic structure. The plot centres on Simon, who, still reeling from the end of his marriage, deliberately decides to distance himself from other people. His recent divorce drives him to reject human interaction altogether, prompting him to adopt a stance of complete avoidance as he seeks refuge from the emotional fallout. In line with his new isolation, Simon proceeds to inundate the shop with an overwhelming amount of artificial‑intelligence equipment. The store becomes saturated with AI devices, turning the space into a chaotic, nightmarish setting. This flood of technology not only dominates the physical environment but also acts as a catalyst for a disturbing atmosphere that affects everyone inside. The result is that the pervasive AI presence draws out the darkest side of each person in the store, exposing the worst in everybody. As the artificial‑intelligence nightmare spreads, it lays bare the negative traits of the characters, turning the episode into a stark illustration of how a single individual's response to personal loss can trigger a collective descent into negativity.
