In a world where technology advances by leaps and bounds, a university professor buys a strange device that seems harmless at first, but quickly becomes the source of his nightmare. This gadget, which resembles a television but has its own intentions, begins to interfere with his life in unexpected ways. At first, it is merely an object that projects distracting images and sounds, but soon it reveals itself to be a being with a mind of its own.

As the professor tries to decipher what is happening, his surroundings start to crumble. Friends and colleagues become concerned for his mental health, believing he has lost his mind by speaking of the machine as if it were alive. The device begins to show a strange fascination with controlling every aspect of his life, from manipulating his thoughts to sabotaging his relationships.

As the story progresses, the professor must fight not only to regain control of his life but also to understand the nature of human ingenuity and the dangers of becoming overly reliant on technology. With a tone that blends comedy with science fiction, this story becomes a reflection on technology addiction and the loss of humanity in an increasingly automated world. In a race against time, the professor faces a dilemma: how far will he go to reclaim his freedom?
