The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalogue in 3D

The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

The Apprentice New Zealand is a New Zealand reality television series that aired on TV2 from 16 February to 11 May 2010. It featured Terry Serepisos, a Wellington based multi-millionaire property developer, as the chief executive officer. The series' winner, Thomas Ben, received a $200,000 package consisting of a $100,000 salary, a BMW and accommodation. Ben began work at Serepisos' property development company Century City in July 2010 but was fired the next year due to the Bankruptcy of Terry Serepisos. The series returned in 2021, under the title The Apprentice Aotearoa. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
