==History==
Jimmy works as a paperboy to collect funds for his ill mother. One day, he passes by a candy shop. Curiously, he explores the shop, uncovering a dark secret. Jimmy gets manipulated by the candy shop owner, who strangely, invites adult men to his business. When he realizes that his best friend Nancy was captured by the owner, Jimmy rejects the offer. Later, Jimmy continues his business of a paperboy, while coming across a missing poster of a girl named Hope. Jimmy goes to the candy shop to confront the owner, who coldly instructed him to push the button and kill Nancy. However, Jimmy refuses, and the owner continues to kill Nancy. Instead, he refuses, and the owner condescendingly calls him a mere paperboy and pushes the button anyway. Jimmy then tries to sabotage the machine. Frustrated, the owner desperately beats Jimmy with a pipe. He mentions that this isn't the first time that others had tried to stop his plans and tries to shred him with the machine. Jimmy responds by shoving the owner in the deepest part of the machine, killing the heartless murderer for good. However, at the same time, it turns out that Jimmy was too late to save Nancy as she was turned into a candy. But, Jimmy manages to reverse the process and manages to save Nancy and the fallen girls who were turned into candy at the end of the day. Most of them were saved and return safely to their families, although there are some of them that were beyond saving. The story ends up with someone spreading a flyer about a candy store opening of which Jimmy tore it down anyway.
