Set in a hospital and left without a genre tag by the platform, this five-episode Candy Shorts drama follows Harriet, an awkward new member of staff, whom the chief of surgery takes aside for some very personal training while a jealous head nurse schemes to get her fired. Episodes 1 and 2 need only a free sign-up; the last three cost 12 tokens apiece or come with Premium.
Behind the on-call door
Harriet is new, awkward and sure she does not fit in at the hospital. In Under the Chief she catches the eye of the most senior man in the building: the head of surgery turns the key in the on-call room door and announces some very hands-on training. On the other side of that door stands the head nurse, jealous of Harriet and already looking for a reason to have her dismissed.
The tension comes from the setting as much as from the pair: a hospital shift that can be interrupted at any moment and a rival with every reason to knock. The platform has not given the series a genre tag, and all of the characters are adults.
A workplace story
Under the Chief belongs to the catalog's workplace strand, where most of the drama comes from rank and from who holds the keys. It is an original series with an AI-generated cast rather than a creator twin, and the complete episodes are adult content behind the 18+ sign-in.
How to watch and what it costs
There are five episodes. The first two play with a free account on candy.ai or candyshorts.com; episodes 3 to 5 cost 12 tokens each in October 2026, or nothing extra with Premium. Current plan prices are collected in our free access guide.
