Under the Boss is one of the older workplace titles in Candy AI Shorts. The platform already listed it before October 5, 2026, and as of October 14, 2026 it shows five episodes: two cost nothing, while the other three sit in the regular 12-token tier rather than the 30-token tier some older series use.
Is Under the Boss free on Candy AI?
Partly, and the table shows exactly where the free part ends.
| Episode | What you need | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Nothing, just press play | Free |
| 2 | A free Candy AI account, no card | 0 tokens |
| 3, 4 and 5 | Premium, or tokens one by one | 12 tokens each |
A viewer who skips Premium pays 36 tokens (3 x 12) for the full run. As of September 2026 a $9.99 pack held 100 tokens, which would cover the whole series with most of the pack left over. At the September 2026 checkout the 12-month Premium plan was $3.99 per month, billed as $47.88 once a year, and it bundles a monthly token allowance of its own.
What the official synopsis describes
The synopsis puts a shy new temp in a London office, where the boss quickly fixes his attention on the new arrival. His jealous personal assistant, meanwhile, is ready to do whatever it takes to wreck their forbidden fling. A boss, a newcomer and a rival make a compact triangle, and the platform files it under Workplace in the Realistic style.
The synopsis is the whole of the plot this guide knows, so no episode events are described here. Nothing is claimed about how the triangle resolves, who wins or how many twists the five episodes hold.
A named city gives the premise a concrete backdrop; the synopsis stops there, and so does this page.
Older series, newer-series price
Age and price do not move together on the platform. Some older titles, Private Lessons Candy AI among them, carry a 30-token price per locked episode. Under the Boss does not: its three locked episodes cost 36 tokens, where the 30-token tier would have meant 3 x 30 = 90.
The catalog has also moved on since this title arrived. It was one of the 135 series listed on October 5, 2026, and by October 14 the count stood at 157, so newer arrivals now sit beside it.
Under the Boss or Under the Chief on Candy AI?
Both series list Harriet Seagrave as their cast character, so the choice is mostly about setting. The older one runs through a London office with a boss and a jealous assistant. The newer Under the Chief Candy AI title swaps the office for a hospital, a head surgeon and a head nurse, and it was added after October 5, 2026. The two synopses do not link the stories, and the access ladder is identical, so starting with whichever setting appeals costs nothing extra.
Bottom line
The practical test is cheap. Both free episodes can be watched before spending anything, and that is enough to judge whether a London office romance holds your interest. If it does, 36 tokens ends the run, just over a third of what a $9.99 pack contains.
One reminder before pressing play: nothing in these episodes responds to what you type. They are finished, scripted videos, a different product from the prompt-driven Live Action tool.
