Even when arresting people and jabbing them with electric prods, they're always calmly insisting they're just there to help. In one scene, one of them even lets a group of curious kids handle his baton while warning them to be careful with it because it's heavy.

Until the day his roommate, LUH, LUH (Maggie [=McOmie=], sabotages his daily dose of pills in order to make him feel. They both fall madly in love, but their bliss is short lived since the pills gave THX a vaunted steady hand in his industrial job, and without it they may be discovered.
Which, sadly, they are. Once arrested THX is sent to a strange WhiteVoidRoom to receive "treatment" for his deviance. He recruits fellow inmates SRT (Don Pedro Colley) and SEN (Creator/DonaldPleasence) in an attempt to escape and rescue LUH. However, the escape won't be easy, and in their strange world, nothing is guaranteed.
