Under the Boss review: a jealous assistant sets out to sink an affair

A London boss is hooked on his shy new temp from her first day, and his glamorous, jealous assistant will do anything to split them up. Five episodes: two free, then the standard 36 tokens. An office drama with a real villain? We loved it.

The premise

A new temp, shy and curvy, joins a London office, and the boss falls for her almost immediately. In their way stands his personal assistant, a self-assured, jealous blonde who refuses to be sidelined by a newcomer and will go to any lengths to wreck their forbidden fling.

What matters is that the cast is three people, not two. The affair supplies the heat; the assistant supplies the plot, plotting against the couple from the very first episode.

What sets it apart

  • A genuine antagonist. Most five-parters center on one situation between two people. Here a rival chases her own agenda, so the short run moves with a clearer purpose.
  • Two opposites at its core. The shy temp and the polished assistant are written as mirror images, with the boss caught between them.
  • A London setting. A British office is a welcome change from the suburban houses that dominate the catalogue.

Trying it for free

The first two episodes cost nothing and, as with every Candy series, stay suggestive. You get the office, the new hire and the assistant, and by the end you will know whether the rivalry is enough to carry you into the locked episodes. We have not rated its explicitness yet; once unlocked it is adult content, like everything else on Candy AI Shorts.

What finishing costs

With no licensed performer on board, the three locked episodes each cost the standard 12 tokens, 36 tokens altogether. In dollars that is about $1.44 for a yearly subscriber or about $5.04 for a monthly one, which makes it one of the cheapest complete stories on the platform; a single month of plan tokens, 100 in total, pays for it with plenty left over. Honestly, for that money, we would unlock it on the spot.

Right for you, or not?

  • Right for you if you enjoy office affairs, a touch of intrigue and a character to root against.
  • Not for you if you want a famous face or the most explicit titles in the catalogue; our other picks cover both better.

More office stories

Offices and bosses are a recurring theme on Candy. My Billionaire Boss and Her Stepmom Is the Boss are standard five-parters in that vein, while YES, DIRECTOR and Honey Trap in Silk, both rated 4 out of 5, run power games of their own. For intrigue that lasts longer, Mona’s Worst Enemy stretches a rivalry over 15 episodes. And if you want maximum explicitness at the same 36-token price, our top pick is She’s not real.

Our verdict

Under the Boss proves that five episodes can carry a real plot. The jealous assistant turns an ordinary office affair into a tight little drama, and at the standard price it is an easy one to try. It is a strong second choice after She’s not real, especially if you want a little more story for the same tokens. This is Candy doing what it does best: turning out fresh series that keep our imagination fired up.
