The McDonald's PlayPlace Was a Test and Grimace Watched

Inspector Story

About this episode

A familiar playground detail by detail starts looking less like "fun" and more like a behavioral experiment. The mascots, the tubes, the birthday room, even the ball pit—each piece feels designed to measure one thing: whether you notice danger when it's wearing a smile. And the part everyone remembers… might be the part that recorded you.
