Product Description
The scene is set as Toby Broughton, a handsome, wealthy, wheel-chair bound, New York businessman, suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and his Psychotherapist, Dr. Denise Lambert visit a now abandoned State Institution For The Retarded. Dr. Lambert insists that Toby revisit the very setting where he had been erroneously incarcerated in his teens following misdiagnosis of injuries suffered in a motor-vehicle accident to attempt to eliminate his disturbing flashbacks of the Institution.
"Alias The Tank," is the nickname of the "Access Mobility System" wheelchair which allows Toby to access stairs and handicapped-unfriendly places.
