NBC’s Superstore wants us to feel sorry for an illegal immigrant because he couldn’t collect financial compensation after being injured on the job. “It’s so unfair,†proclaims the illegal’s co-worker.
Superstore takes place at supersized megastore Cloud 9, where illegal immigrant Mateo Liwanag (Nico Santos) has been working as a sales associate. Mateo didn’t realize his parents brought him into the country illegally until after he became an employee at Cloud 9.
