* MistakenForRacist: The Foundation jumps to the conclusion that since the only survivors of SCP-1836 were of Inuit decent, then that must mean that Connor can approach her without fear because he's part-Inuit.

Sanna later explains that she only attacked fishing boats that failed to ask "permission" to hunt in her territory and that the racial link of the survivors was coincidental.

"Confinement" is a BlackComedy animated series centered around the ''Website/SCPFoundation''.

The series focuses on one of those [[WeHaveReserves delightfully expendable folks]] known as a D-Class personnel, this one being a young man named Connor. But there's one twist: [[ResurrectiveImmortality Connor can't die]].

Naturally, the Foundation ''loves'' using him for experiments as a result, and the series focuses on the wacky, painful and bloody encounters he has to deal with as a result of this. Needless to say, extremely dark HilarityEnsues!

It can be viewed [[[[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEXIiC3q94eO992TlwBD98Zast0gret1r here]].

Not to be confused with the [[FanFic/{{Confinement}} fanfic of the same name]].

* AffablyEvil: Ferdinand in the first episode. What ends up irking him enough to kill Connor is thinking that he's being rude.
* BalefulPolymorph: In episode 2, the affects of the singing forest cause Connor to regenerate as a plant creature.
-->'''Connor:''' Oh God, this better not be permanent...
* BlackComedy: All over the place.
* ButtMonkey: Poor Connor has to deal with a ''lot'', due to a mix of his powers and his job.
* DeadpanSnarker: Connor. It's hard to blame him, really.
* EldritchAbomination: This being the SCP Foundation, a bunch of these are bound to appear somewhere.
* FemaleGaze: Dr. Powers blushes and averts her eyes when Connor strips in episode 2.
* LimitedWardrobe: Justified as all Class Ds are required to wear orange jumpsuits.
* MagicPants: Connor's clothes typically regenerate with him when he dies. The only reason they don't at the end of episode two is because Connor had taken his clothes ''off'' before dying.
* NakedPeopleAreFunny: In episode 2, Connor succumbs to the memetic effect of the Singing Forest and starts to get an all over rash. In a futile attempt to remedy this, he ''[[RuleOfFunny of course]]'' strips naked.
* ResurrectiveImmortality: Connor has this, and it's mentioned by name in the second episode.
* StockholmSyndrome: Dr. Powers seems to imply that Connor has this at the end of episode two, noting that he expressed happiness at the idea of escaping when the possibility was given to him, then started denying said happiness when the window of opportunity closed.
* TheyKilledKennyAgain: Connor, due to his power.
