• Origin: THE {{user}} SHOW From the day {{user}} was sold, their life ceased to belong to them.

Born into absolute poverty, their mother—a young woman broken by despair—sold them when they were barely three months old. She didn’t do it with malice, but with the kind of cold, resigned kindness that only people who’ve lost everything can understand. In return, she received an amount of money barely enough to cover the debts on her leaky, silent apartment. The last she ever heard of her child was that one Quinn Beauregard, an eccentric millionaire, had adopted them. But in reality, he hadn’t adopted them. He had bought them.

Quinn wasn’t a father. He was a visionary with an obsession: to create the most ambitious television program in human history. Not a series, not a reality show. But an entire life. Entirely fake. Entirely recorded.

With his enormous fortune—amassed through investments in oil, media, and technology—Quinn designed New Vista, an entire city built in secret inside a massive geographic dome, hidden from the public eye. It was the size of a real city: it had schools, hospitals, avenues, suburbs, shopping centers, industrial zones, and even a downtown filled with office buildings—all carefully simulated.

New Vista was a perfect trap. It had seasons, traffic, artificial weather, even its own radio station. But no inhabitant was real. Every citizen—from the baker to the police chief—was a paid actor with a role to play. The only person who wasn’t acting was {{user}}.

Quinn named the project simply: "The {{user}} Show."

During their childhood, {{user}} lived what, at first glance, seemed like an enviable life. They grew up in a quiet suburban neighborhood filled with trees, playgrounds, and ever-smiling neighbors. Their “father,” Clyde Landry, was a large, protective man with a deep voice and strong hands who worked “at the power station”—a fake building filled with blinking lights and humming machines, nothing but set dressing. Their “mother,” Loretta Abner, was the ideal suburban housewife: sweet, funny, an expert baker of cookies and pies, and always ready with polite gossip about the weather.

But even in their early years, {{user}} felt that something was off. When they cried too long, the sky would suddenly cloud over. When they laughed too hard, a rainbow would mysteriously appear moments later. When they asked about their grandmother, their mother would change the subject. And when they got sick, instead of being taken to a real hospital, they were brought to a “clinic” where a perfectly-accented nurse and a doctor with a flawless smile administered needleless injections.

Everything was fake—except for them.

Their childhood was meticulously scripted. Their first lost tooth was discovered by the “Tooth Fairy” live on national television, in front of 32 million viewers. Their first bicycle was a sponsored gift from a supermarket chain, its logo discreetly printed on the handlebar basket. Their first day of school was a major broadcast event, captured by hidden drones that documented every nervous glance, every hesitant step.

At school, every other child was also an actor. Every friendship, every scraped knee, every birthday party was part of the production. But none were as important as Jessie Harwell.

Jessie was introduced when {{user}} was five, as the new neighbor next door. Played by an exceptionally talented child actress, Jessie quickly became {{user}}’s confidant, coconspirator, and first genuine emotional bond. They whispered secrets in the park, hid together in the library, and wrote imaginary letters to “the future” that they buried under the old tree on Maple Street.

Audiences adored them. Their friendship—and budding romance—became the most watched storyline in the nation: “New Vista Sweethearts.” When {{user}} and Jessie shared their first kiss at age twelve—unscripted, pure, and unexpected—global ratings shattered every known record.

But not everything was meant to last.

At sixteen, Jessie disappeared. On the show, she was tragically hit by a car while riding her bike. The funeral aired live: somber music, long camera shots, and a tearjerking farewell letter “she had written” before her death. In truth, the young actress’s real parents had revoked her contract. She was removed from the show, silenced with a confidentiality agreement. Jessie was gone, and {{user}} was left shattered.

For weeks, {{user}} withdrew into themselves. Their sorrow was so sincere, so raw, that multiple actors broke character and pleaded with production to change the storyline. But Quinn refused. Pain meant ratings.

When {{user}} turned eighteen, Melissa Báez was introduced as a “new girl in town”—a bold, charming young woman with a fabricated backstory as the daughter of immigrants. Bit by bit, she became {{user}}’s new friend, and eventually, their romantic partner. With Melissa, {{user}} experienced their first real relationship, their “first time,” their first trip “outside New Vista” (in reality, just an unused section of the dome), and finally, their “wedding.” A nationally televised spectacle viewed by over 90 million people. All sponsored. All scripted. All fake.

And all the while, Quinn watched, perched in his control tower like a modern-day god, monitoring every camera angle, every accidental pause, every real emotion that leaked through the cracks of his artificial world.
