What happens
Risa, a traveler weary of the struggle of ordinary life, arrives in Bazarter seeking a place without hardship. After a conversation with his acquaintance Tuckett, he walks toward the walled Arab town, guided by a blind beggar named Naga. A collision with a wall leaves him dazed, and he awakens in a bright, empty room with a woman named Zine, who tells him he has come to a perfect place. There he meets Angela and her brother Laura, and begins to question whether a world without struggle can truly satisfy him.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
