00:11:24Sixth floor.
00:11:31God, Fernando's supposed to be off a half hour ago.
00:11:33Where is she?
00:11:36Screw it.
00:11:38I'm going up.
00:11:47You fucking asshole!
00:11:51Fucking asshole!
00:11:55Stop it!
00:11:56You're acting like a child.
00:11:58As if you never saw this coming.
00:12:00What are you doing kissing this douchebag?
00:12:02Watch your mouth!
00:12:04I can do whatever I want,
00:12:06with whoever I want.
00:12:09Good bastard.
00:12:10Jesus!
00:12:22Eric, you and me...
00:12:26are over.
00:12:27over. Fernanda, are you serious? That pathetic piece of crap had the nerve to mess up your shirt.
00:12:37Why are you doing this? Eric, I told you we're done. Why would I waste my time with an unemployed
00:12:43loser like you?
00:12:57Keep it. At least you'll have something to jerk off to.
00:13:03Oh, damn. Yeah, so I'm Rich, I'm Hanson, and you, you're an unemployed loser. Let's go home
00:13:14and beat your meat, man. Fernanda, you're the reason I even stayed at Dorsac.
00:13:21Shut up! Who knows what kind of lies you told to get the job anyway? We're done.
00:13:27You're going to pay for this. Hold it. You're in trouble now, bitch.
00:13:46And you are?
00:13:48It's an honor to meet you, Mr. Dorsey. I'm here to report that under my guidance, our systems
00:13:54are back up and running normally.
00:13:56You're Eric Martin!
00:13:58I am.
00:13:59You can see why my father spoke so highly of you.
00:14:02Idiots, do they really not know I'm taking credit for that loser Eric's work? Whatever.
00:14:06As long as the boss's son likes me, I can keep climbing the ladder.
00:14:12Mr. Dorsey, I know the asshole who tried to sabotage our company.
00:14:17Right after you were fired, the system crashed.
00:14:21There's reason to believe that this was your attempt at revenge.
00:14:25Boss, good news. Eric Martin, that tech whiz you had on your radar, he just left Dorsey
00:14:41Tech.
00:14:41He did?
00:14:43Mm-hmm. It happened 10 minutes ago. He was fired by the CEO's son, William.
00:14:47Ha! Ah, that's hilarious. I want to see the look on that old hag, Asher Dorsey's face,
00:14:53when he realizes that the genius he recruited just got sacked by his idiot son.
00:14:59But Boss Hendrix Tech is just a mid-level startup. Will someone as talented as him really
00:15:03want to join us?
00:15:05We have to get him on our side by any means necessary.
00:15:11You have no idea how groundbreaking his work in AI modeling is.
00:15:16Get the car ready. I'm going to the Dorsey office, and Eric is mine.
00:15:23Revenge. What the hell are you talking about?
00:15:31Don't play dumb. The systems crashed right after you got fired. This couldn't have been
00:15:37a coincidence. Yet, you still deny it.
00:15:40Bullshit.
00:15:41You guys have always looked down to me as some nobody maintenance worker. Now you're
00:15:46going to blame me when the server gets hacked. None of you idiots have any shred of common
00:15:51sense. If you had a common sense, you'd have a job. I'm not going to argue with you in
00:15:56front of Mr. Dorsey.
00:15:57What the hell are you trying to do?
00:16:01You either tell them the truth or they're going to take you to the police station.
00:16:04Eric, I had no idea you were such a vengeful person. What other tricks do you have of your
00:16:10sleep? Better come clean now or you're going to jail.
00:16:15All right.
00:16:17What are you waiting for?
00:16:20Arrest me.
00:16:21Let's see if you have any real evidence.
00:16:28What are you doing, man? We don't got handcuffs.
00:16:31Really? Without a shred of remorse? Don't you know that Mr. Dorsey's going to make your
00:16:37life a living hell? Mr. Dorsey, the way I see it, you should teach this asshole a lesson.
00:16:43Yeah, William. A scumbag like him should never get away with this.
00:16:47No, no. From this day on, Eric Martin is now blacklisted from Dorsey Tech and all of
00:16:57its industry partners. You know what this means, dude? You're now kicked out of Silicon
00:17:05Valley, bro.
00:17:09I just have one question. Does Asher, the CEO, know that I've been fired?
00:17:15Why should the CEO be bothered with firing a loser like you? You thought you were real
00:17:22hot shit, didn't you? Boys, let's take him to the police.
00:17:27Yes, sir.
00:17:28Stop right there.
00:17:39There'll be no need to take him away. He's joining Hendrix Tech.
00:17:43He's joining Hendrix Tech.
00:17:50Well, I reckon I ain't you. You're Evelyn Hendrix, CEO of Hendrix Tech.
00:17:57Evelyn, what are you doing here?
00:18:00I'm here for you, of course.
00:18:03I haven't seen you since college.
00:18:04What? A dummy like you went to college with her?
00:18:08So is this how Dorsey Tech treats its former employees? I would have expected better from
00:18:13you.
00:18:15Miss Hendrix, I...
00:18:16These are high-level conversations between company CEOs. Someone of your rank should know
00:18:21when to shut her mouth.
00:18:23Miss Hendrix, this prick, Eric, has severely...
00:18:27I'm sorry, who are you?
00:18:29I... I'm, uh...
00:18:31Yeah, I don't really have time to listen to your jabbering.
00:18:33Oh my God. Okay, look, right after I fired this imbecile, our company server crashed.
00:18:38He clearly hacked into our system. His actions have had serious consequences for our company.
00:18:43So yeah, man, I don't understand why you're challenging me for exposing a cyber criminal.
00:18:48Did you really not ask your father about who Eric is?
00:18:56Of course I asked my father. He said that Eric's some kind of slacker who cheated his way into the company.
00:19:05Slacker? Is that really what Asher said? Word for word. He said,
00:19:12Fire this loser as soon as you get the chance.
00:19:15Asher met with me multiple times and begged for me to come join Dorsey Tech.
00:19:23It doesn't make sense that he would change his mind like this.
00:19:26Don't give me a break, Eric.
00:19:28The boss wouldn't waste his precious time recruiting someone like you.
00:19:33Fine. If that's how it's gonna be, then there's nothing left to say to you.
00:19:38Or Dorsey Tech.
00:19:39Eric, how would you feel about coming over to Hendrix Tech?
00:19:50You'll be a principal shareholder, and you'll also have a salary of 4 million per year.
00:19:54I want to make you our lead software engineer.
00:19:57I'm sorry, a principal shareholder? 4 million dollar salary?
00:20:13Miss Hendrix, you're giving him a lot. I mean, you're out of your damn mind.
00:20:17This woman's got to screw loose.
00:20:19You know he was just a maintenance worker at Dorsey Tech, right?
00:20:21And now you want to make him a millionaire?
00:20:23Evelyn, I know you're trying to help, but I don't want the money.
00:20:32Then, would this meet him again?
00:20:37Are you kidding me? This is insane!
00:20:40If you join Hendrix Tech, you can have anything you want.
00:20:46Including me.
00:20:47Okay, uh, look, Miss Hendrix, you're a self-made woman, which I respect.
00:20:54So, for your own good, let me remind you that this loser that you've set your mind on
00:20:59is some dick who loves to slack on the job.
00:21:02My father said it himself.
00:21:04Okay.
00:21:06Alright.
00:21:08Well...
00:21:09What's all that?
00:21:20See, that would be all the things your father gave me.
00:21:25The car, the money, my relationship.
00:21:29See, they're all yours now.
00:21:30You can tell Asher that from this day forward, I, Eric Martin, will finally be severing my
00:21:37ties with Dorsey Tech.
00:21:39Quit it with the self-pity.
00:21:42You didn't deserve those things to begin with.
00:21:44It's right that you returned them.
00:21:47You guys are shameless.
00:21:49You don't even see your employees as human beings.
00:21:52Miss Hendrix, I know that you and Dorsey Tech are competitors.
00:21:58Yes, but to be honest, right now we're actually struggling to compete with them.
00:22:03Don't worry.
00:22:06I can help change that.
00:22:10I can help change that.
00:22:12Look at yourself, Eric.
00:22:14Offering to work for a smaller company.
00:22:17What a joke.
00:22:18I'm sorry, a traitor like you doesn't have the right to judge others.
00:22:24How dare you?
00:22:25The breach of the company's server has caused major damage.
00:22:29As the perpetrator of this attack, I demand you to issue an apology to Dorsey Tech and
00:22:34all of its customers.
00:22:35And if you don't, I'll have to raise charges.
00:22:39Okay.
00:22:40Good luck with that.
00:22:42What are you going to do about it?
00:22:44You have no choice but to issue that apology.
00:22:46Stop threatening my employee.
00:22:49If you insist on escalating this, then send a demand letter to Hendrix Tech and we'll see
00:22:54it as a declaration of war.
00:22:58Well, if war is what you want, that's what you get.
00:23:02You know what?
00:23:06You know what?
00:23:06Let's go.
00:23:15I'd be sick if I stay another second in this shithole.
00:23:26Mr. Dorsey, don't waste time with those people.
00:23:30Eric, you've done well.
00:23:32I'm going to assign you the role of lead engineer.
00:23:37That's amazing, sir.
00:23:40Uh, what about me, darling?
00:23:44Oh, don't worry, my dear.
00:23:45I'll make sure that you're satisfied.
00:23:49Ew, gross.
00:23:51I won't let you down.
00:23:52Good.
00:23:54Tell me, how did you resolve the system's crash?
00:23:56Um, uh, fuck.
00:23:59The tablet's in the office.
00:24:00What should I say?
00:24:02I used a one-of-a-kind code that I developed myself to get the server back up and running.
00:24:07I can explain it to you in detail later.
00:24:10Spoken like a true visionary.
00:24:12Man's even got his own code.
00:24:14You know what?
00:24:15Don't even bother showing it to me.
00:24:16I'm sure it's exquisite.
00:24:19Keep working your magic, buddy.
00:24:21With you on my team, I can relax.
00:24:23Thank you, sir.
00:24:24Here you go.
00:24:26Let's go.
00:24:32Say hello to Dorsey Tech's new lead engineer.
00:24:35Let's see if anyone looks down on me now.
00:24:46Hello?
00:24:47Hi, Mr. Dorsey.
00:24:48It's Evelyn Hendricks.
00:24:49I'm just going to inform you that as of today, Hendricks Tech has a horse in the AI development race.
00:24:59AI development is the crown jewel of Dorsey Tech.
00:25:03Are you sure you want to challenge us?
00:25:06As I said, I'm just calling to inform you not to have a discussion.
00:25:10Hang on a minute.
00:25:11What's that sly fox up to?
00:25:24She knows I have my lethal weapon, Eric, so why would she want to go to war with me?
00:25:31Unless...
00:25:32Dad, what's up?
00:25:46Tell me you didn't fire Eric.
00:25:47Uh, okay, um, just, just calm down, just for a second.
00:25:54I only fired the slacker you told me about.
00:25:56Okay, then explain to me why Hendricks Tech is suddenly wanting to go to war with us.
00:26:01Well, I, I just tricked her into thinking that she had a chance.
00:26:06I mean, I'm not an idiot.
00:26:09There's no way I would let some lousy slacker bring down our entire server single-handedly.
00:26:14But I got Evelyn to believe that Eric really did it.
00:26:18She thinks she hit the jackpot, but really she's just picking up our trash.
00:26:22So you intentionally misled Evelyn?
00:26:24She's under the impression that the loser she poached from us
00:26:29is the mastermind behind Dorsey Tech's AI modeling.
00:26:33That's why she had the guts to declare war.
00:26:35Nice job, son.
00:26:37That shows real initiative.
00:26:38I think it's time you take full control of our next-gen AI modeling project.
00:26:45R-really?
00:26:48Dad, thank you.
00:26:51Thank you so much.
00:26:52Now get to work.
00:26:53Look, we are going to make Hendricks Tech the laughingstock of the whole industry.
00:27:00All right.
00:27:01Bye-bye, love.
00:27:07Sir, AI modeling is the future of Dorsey Tech.
00:27:11William just graduated.
00:27:14You sure you want to hand the reins over to him this soon?
00:27:16I'd not have given it to him if he was the only one we were counting on.
00:27:18Don't forget, we still have our ace in the hole.
00:27:23You mean Eric Martin?
00:27:27That's right.
00:27:29All I have to do is stay hands off and let him do what he does best.
00:27:33As long as we have Eric, Hendricks has a snowball's chance in hell.
00:27:38Plus, Evelyn fell for William's bluff and hired that clown, Eric.
00:27:43Now all we have to do is sit back and watch her self-destruct.
00:27:49so now that you've seen the engineering department what are your thoughts it's not bad
00:28:07small group but they're talented all we need is a few programmers with specialized knowledge in
00:28:14the field of AI precisely so is there any chance that our lead engineer mr. Martin could put
00:28:22together a team I heard that you weren't the only one that William Dorsey fired you've got
00:28:30it all figured out don't you all right give me a minute I'll call the guys welcome
00:28:44come in mr. Dorsey you wanted to see me yes my father has just put me in charge of our AI
00:28:55modeling projects seeing as your lead engineer I'm putting you in charge of development
00:28:59I uh sir is there a problem
00:29:06no not at all don't worry I'm the right man for the job
00:29:13yes William there's been another crisis several key employees from the tech department have resigned
00:29:24the department can't function like this what they just left why they wouldn't say but rumor has it
00:29:31they were poached by a former employee poached by from the fucking Eric Martin William what should we do
00:29:38there's hardly any tech workers left if anyone else resigns we're done for there's no need to freak out
00:29:43you still have me I can fix this yes no with with you here we're gonna be all right just what's your
00:29:51solution look we lost a few expendable employees that's it let them walk we'll get better ones I'll
00:29:59make a few calls like that I like that yes oh fucking Eric Martin oh this is all going swimmingly now I
00:30:17can put my own people in key positions soon I'll have the whole company under my thumb
00:30:25Johnny is an excellent programmer he'll be assuming the role of department head and this is Ruby Leon and
00:30:31Mateo they're professional and reliable former co-workers of mine with this team Hendrix Tech's AI
00:30:38work will be in good hands we're all pleased to meet you everyone welcome everyone it's great to have
00:30:44you all on board but I do want to warn you that there is lots of work to do we have a ways to go
00:30:50if we want to compete with Dorsey Tech with Eric at the helm we'll always be one step ahead but Dorsey
00:30:57Tech has already developed their own AI program that it's a trial version if they keep developing based
00:31:06on that model Ben then what then we won't have to lift the finger we used our experience on the trial
00:31:23version to build a next-gen AI neural net patching up the previous loopholes and weaknesses even if
00:31:30Dorsey Tech analyzes the trial version framework and builds a brand new platform we'll still have the
00:31:35upper hand and if they keep building based on the old trial version then we can just sit back and
00:31:40watch them fail mark my words in this battle for dominance Hendrix Tech is destined for victory
00:31:463 a.m. again okay miss Hendrix hey come on we're all alone here call me Evelyn are you always a
00:32:16trust in this way towards people who are crushing on you crashing honey you still cant tell Eric I liked you I felt this way since college
00:32:31you were the prettiest girl on campus i i didn't think you'd go for a guy like me
00:32:42i've never had my sight set on anyone else only you but you were so oblivious and when i finally
00:32:52got the courage to tell you how i felt you disappeared i went abroad to work on a top
00:32:59secret trading project i know you've always been so brilliant back then i i made up my mind i was
00:33:09gonna be with you one day evelyn and when i founded hendrix tech i wanted to recruit you but that sneaky
00:33:20bastard asher dorsey he already had snatched you up i i i see um
00:33:28so if i came closer to you now would you mind
00:33:36uh i um i i should uh uh it's late i should probably uh be going
00:33:48where are you gonna go you lost everything when you left dorsey tech
00:33:55you kind of have nowhere to go now
00:33:58elena
00:34:04let's go
00:34:08go where
00:34:10i'm taking you home
00:34:13this is it
00:34:21from now until the ai project is finished you'll be staying with me
00:34:27for that long you sure that's a good idea i'm your boss remember it'll make it easier for me to um
00:34:36supervise you
00:34:38uh okay um well
00:34:41where am i gonna sleep
00:34:44uh well i only have one bedroom so
00:34:48you're gonna have to share a bed with me

00:34:54maybe we probably shouldn't um
00:34:57i'm messing with you

00:35:00at least as big as wherever dorsey had you
00:35:02come on i'll show you your room
00:35:04okay
00:35:07this is what you've got
00:35:11you're fucking useless
00:35:13sir the modeling framework we're working with is extremely complex we'll need at least another month
00:35:20to fully understand it
00:35:22a month not a chance
00:35:28i am gonna give you three days and i want consistent progress reports
00:35:33sir if we have to rush things there'll be an increased risk for error
00:35:36then you have to work faster and smarter i'm giving you three days
00:35:40eric
00:35:42mr dorsey
00:35:43how are things

00:41:28i want results
00:41:29miss hendrix
00:41:39i've just been informed that dorsey tech's next gen ai platform is nearing completion
00:41:43it's just a matter of time before it hits the market
00:41:46really
00:41:46that fast
00:41:48well there's a cocktail party three days from now
00:41:50dorsey's going to be there announcing their new product and pitching to investors
00:41:54they're taking things to the next level
00:41:56that william dorsey is really milking all his connections
00:42:01if this goes well for them we're going to be in a difficult spot
00:42:03well that much is obvious
00:42:05but i don't
00:42:06good thing we're finished too
00:42:07what
00:42:09really
00:42:10why would i lie
00:42:12we've been right on pace with dorsey this whole time
00:42:15plus the sooner they want to go public the easier it will be for us
00:42:18why would it be better for us
00:42:21evelyn
00:42:23remember what i told you when i first came on board
00:42:26but dorsey tech has already developed their own ai program
00:42:31that
00:42:33it's a trial version
00:42:35if they keep developing based on that model then
00:42:38then what
00:42:40then we won't have to lift a finger
00:42:44hmm
00:42:52so what you're saying
00:42:54is that dorsey tech has been building off of the trial version that you made
00:42:58it's the only way they could have built it so fast
00:43:00it's a rough draft with a whole mess of flaws i wouldn't make a second time
00:43:04evelyn
00:43:05there's nothing for us to worry about
00:43:07that does make sense
00:43:09yes
00:43:10well then good
00:43:11thank you i'm grateful to you and the team for all your hard work
00:43:14tell everyone in the tech department that they can take the next three days off
00:43:18they'll need their rest before we bring product to market
00:43:21hmm
00:43:22yes miss hendrix
00:43:23this was a big day for us
00:43:27why don't we end it with a drink
00:43:32aren't you a lightweight
00:43:36who said that
00:43:39i can handle my liquor eric martin

00:43:58i knew it
00:43:59i told you
00:44:00see
00:44:02that's why that last drink was a bad idea

00:45:05William, we've been together for some time now, and my feelings for you have only grown stronger by the day.
00:45:14Let's get married!
00:45:20Hey, where are you? Everyone's out here celebrating, and you're a no-show. What a buzzkill.
00:45:29I'm coming.
00:45:31No, that's all right. You know, everyone's, everyone's leaving. Don't bother. Bye.
00:45:43Hey.
00:45:44Hey. Where'd you go? I missed you.
00:45:49It's fine. He just had a bit too much to drink.
00:45:54You know, there is a killer martini spot right up the street.
00:45:59Oh.
00:45:59I can get the bartender to whip up something special for you.
00:46:02I'd like that.
00:46:03You would?
00:46:03Mm-hmm.
00:46:05Oh, you're so much hotter than that bitch Fernanda.
00:46:08You're just a climber who hopped from her ex over to me.
00:46:11And, you know, she's the kind of woman you throw some money at and then send her away. That's who she is.
00:46:16William, how could you do this to me?
00:46:18You know, she, she, the funny thing is, is she thinks I actually love her. I bagged a hundred babes that are better than her. She's delusional.
00:46:30Oh, how pathetic. Probably just broke up with her boyfriend or something.
00:46:41Yeah, who gives a shit? You know, I'm gonna break up with Fernanda soon, too.
00:46:45And I'll be waiting for you, Daddy.
00:46:49Oh, Jack.
00:46:51God damn it!
00:46:57What have I done?
00:47:01It's going to be so awkward at work now.
00:47:04And I didn't even get the chance to propose to William.
00:47:09God damn it! What have I done?
00:47:11Eric!
00:47:18It's so cold.
00:47:21Eric!
00:47:40It's fine.
00:47:41I already saw everything last night, anyway.
00:47:48How do I look?
00:47:50Um, beautiful.
00:47:57Come on, get up.
00:47:58I have your suit ready, too.
00:48:01Where, where are we going?
00:48:03Where else?
00:48:05We're gonna go crash Dorsey Tech's little cocktail party.
00:48:11What are you doing hiding over here?
00:48:20I told you you're here as my girlfriend.
00:48:24We have to look at the part.
00:48:39Mr. Dorsey, with money like yours, there must be plenty of other girlfriends you can call.
00:48:46Okay, what's gotten with you?
00:48:48You want me to cut your salary or something?
00:48:51Because I can do that.
00:48:52Whatever.
00:48:53Just wait until I'm wasted.
00:48:55Drunk words are sober thoughts.
00:48:57Mr. Dorsey, let's have a toast.
00:49:00To winning over the investors and taking over the market by storm.
00:49:04Cheers.
00:49:05Cheers.
00:49:06Cheers.
00:49:07Cheers.
00:49:08Cheers.
00:49:09Oh, fuck.
00:49:10Oh, fuck.
00:49:15Oh, fuck.
00:49:22Oh, fuck.
00:49:32Come on.
00:49:36Fuck.
00:49:39well well well it isn't that little rat i fired from dorsey tech
00:49:50miss hendrix i see you've taken quite a liking to uh this loser an idiot right here
00:49:59why wouldn't i like eric he's a tech genius and the brains behind our new ai platform
00:50:05firing him was your loss
00:50:09thanks to mr dorsey's leadership and my fearless efforts dorsey tech ai platform is now reaching
00:50:19the market you talk a big game but the only reason why you're here is to ride our coattails
00:50:26so what's uh really funny about that is that we're about to release our own ai platform
00:50:37oh is that so well you frauds don't have a shot against us how much overtime did you use to
00:50:45make a platform that no one's gonna use burn dude you hear that yeah i would say our monopoly
00:50:52on the tech industry is secure so miss hendrix why don't you go on that little love train
00:50:58straight to bankruptcy we'll see which product no one wants to use
00:51:03jesus eric didn't we like just break up look at you i already head over heels for another woman
00:51:12excuse me what's up talk to me um do you have any idea where i am
00:51:21what uh the server crashed
00:51:26okay yep okay yep um what the fuck server crashed i'll make a call yeah make a call it'll
00:51:36be fixed in a minute yeah that's um wow he's got it yeah yeah he's got it use the amelioration
00:51:44algorithm yes do it amelioration algorithm that's what i call the code i saved in my tablet but it's
00:51:52only for emergencies it won't solve the core problem wait did eric steal my tablet another server crash
00:51:59huh if your systems are so unpredictable you sure people are gonna trust your new product
00:52:05uh yeah this doesn't concern you at all uh what's up man we figured out yeah got a fix
00:52:14no big deal no big deal no big deal
00:52:15wait did you just say the company's server crashes no big deal this is an internal affair
00:52:25and you were driven out so i would keep your mouth shut the amelioration algorithm is for
00:52:33emergencies only it won't address the core issue so the concurrency bug will just lead to more data
00:52:38corruption and more system crashes such a new mistake if you understood code you'd know that
00:52:45oh my god if you would understand code you wouldn't dude like seriously do you hear yourself
00:52:50what do you know take your bullshit theories somewhere else please man right what do i know
00:52:58i wrote the amelioration algorithm what did you just say
00:53:02i wrote the amelioration algorithm i'm in hr and the boss still didn't tell me about the mysterious
00:53:12tech genius he hired was it really eric all along oh what have i done shut up what mr dorsey you can't
00:53:21believe a word they say they are our competitors right believe whatever you want what a dumpster fire
00:53:29let's go honey yeah oh my god did you just call him honey
00:53:36yeah so back when i recruited eric i made the terms very clear i told him he could have whatever he
00:53:44wanted including me i'm not like some people ignoring talents and abusing their chest what
00:53:51i have an image to maintain
00:53:56yes of course
00:54:00so what you're saying is
00:54:12it's not that i don't respect hendrick's tech dorsey is less an investment risk
00:54:17and they have greater potential i can't justify choosing your product over theirs
00:54:22mr brown we're a risk worth taking once you see our ai platform i guarantee you'll want to reconsider
00:54:30bravo bravo it was quite an inspiring sales punch with centrist
00:54:36you must be mr dorsey's son it's a great pleasure this hendrickson and i were just having a little

00:57:14completely eclipsing the efforts of their chief competitor
00:57:17hendricks tech

00:57:20ai king on the same day
00:57:22everyone hendricks has guts i'll give her that

00:58:02right true

00:58:04i have news
00:58:09talk to me
00:58:10the bad news is that hendricks tech ai platform is much more impressive than we thought
00:58:16the good news is that their consumer numbers are nowhere close to ours
00:58:20okay uh all right i'll take it i'll take it
00:58:25like i said we're unbeatable
00:58:28come on let's celebrate
00:58:30no no not yet
00:58:31how did hendricks tech even get that product out in that timeline
00:58:35i mean they got started much later than we did
00:58:37i heard from a source at their company that their lead engineer is highly skilled
00:58:42lead engineer
00:58:47i thought he was supposed to be a nobody
00:58:48right
00:58:53Listen. Dad, what's up?
00:58:59William, I'm on my way to the office to congratulate you and Eric.
00:59:03Oh, uh, got it.
00:59:07The boss is coming. We can talk to him about my promotion.
00:59:10Shit. Guys, this isn't good.
00:59:13What? What is it now?
00:59:14Our AI platform and company server have both crashed.
00:59:17What the fuck? Right? Every time.
00:59:20Oh, seriously. God damn, dude.
00:59:29What the fuck is going on?
00:59:31Mr. Martin, the AI platform just crashed out of nowhere, brought the whole server down along with it.
00:59:36Then don't just sit around like an idiot. Fix it.
00:59:39Sir, this is an issue with the system's core framework. We didn't build that.
00:59:43What do you mean you didn't build it?
00:59:44We're using the same framework that Eric built before he left.
00:59:46Eric, the guy I fired?
00:59:48Yeah, Eric with a K. E-R-I-K.
00:59:50You took credit for someone else's work.
00:59:55Lie to me!
00:59:56Mr. Dorsey, let me explain.
00:59:58No, there is no time for explanation. Why didn't you rebuild the core framework?
01:00:02Mr. Dorsey, we need to focus on getting the company server up and running. Our user's trust depends on it.
01:00:07Speak!
01:00:08What happened to the company server?
01:00:10Sir, he was the one.
01:00:11I didn't do shit!
01:00:12Shut your mouth. Go!
01:00:14The solution he used, the amelioration algorithm after the last two crashes, it's not designed as a long-term solution to the serious concurrency bug in the code.
01:00:23Every time that bug is reproduced, it leads to more serious corruption.
01:00:26It's been a ticking time bomb ever since.
01:00:28This time, the AI platform went down, brought the whole server down along with it.
01:00:33It's completely unfixable.
01:00:37This was all your fault.
01:00:40William, all of our users are switching over to Hendrix Tech AI platform. What should we do?
01:00:44How the fuck am I supposed to know?
01:00:52Mr. Dorsey, what on earth is going on? I'm not going to let you assholes drag me down like this.
01:00:57Look, sir, I can explain. I'm sorry, okay? It's got to be fixed.
01:01:00I have billions of dollars invested in you, damn it. I'm going to make sure the whole industry knows about this scandal.
01:01:05Dorsey Tech is finished.
01:01:07$500,000? We just passed $500,000?
01:01:16You guys, $98,000, $99,000, $1 million!
01:01:21Oh my god!
01:01:22Oh my god!
01:01:23Oh my god!
01:01:24Oh my god!
01:01:25Oh my god!
01:01:26Go!
01:01:26Go!
01:01:27Go!
01:01:28Go!
01:01:29Go!
01:01:30Go!
01:01:31Go!
01:01:32Hey, hey, it's still going up! It's still going up!
01:01:34It's still going up!
01:01:35Fuck.
01:01:36Fuck!
01:01:36This is all your fault. This is all your fault!
01:01:40Mr. Dorsey.
01:01:41Fuck!
01:01:42I wanted to help you. I was trying to help the company.
01:01:46I've had enough of your bullshit.
01:01:48You fired half the bloody tech departments. What was I supposed to do? And you gave us impossible deadlines.
01:01:54No, no, no. Don't make this about me.
01:01:56I get it now. You're using my promotion as bait. You are never going to make me VP.
01:02:01You want your job or not? Is that a threat? Fire me! Do it!
01:02:06Do it!
01:02:07You think I won't?
01:02:08If Eric leaves, so do I. Me too.
01:02:12See, when you fired everyone, I replaced them with my people. Go ahead, fire me. You'll clear out your whole tech department. You will sink Dorsey Tech!
01:02:25You were never the prized tech genius at Dorsey Tech. You were the slacker my father warned me about.
01:02:31William!
01:02:33William!
01:02:37William!
01:02:41I'm ashamed to call you my son.
01:02:45What the hell have you done to my company?
01:02:48Dad, uh, I'm sorry.
01:02:51I'm not here for apologies.
01:02:54What the hell is this idiot doing here? I thought you fired him. Where's Eric?
01:03:02Uh, Dad, Dad, I fired Eric.
01:03:06You fired him?!
01:03:09Um, was that a mistake?
01:03:14Dad, are you okay? Hey, are you okay?
01:03:18Eric, I busted my fucking balls to get Eric to Dorsey Tech. He was the backbone behind this company.
01:03:29And what did you do?
01:03:31You fired him!
01:03:34So, um, it was Eric with a K all along?
01:03:38Oh, I fucked up.
01:03:40God, I fucked up.
01:03:42Where is Eric now?
01:03:43I will get down on my knees and beg him to come back.
01:03:48Um, Eric is at, uh, Hendrix Tech.
01:03:54You are a sorry excuse for a son!
01:03:59You have destroyed my company!
01:04:06Sir, bad news.
01:04:09It appears that the server crash was just the beginning.
01:04:11What's going on?
01:04:13The crash also affected our automobile software.
01:04:16There have been at least 30 car accidents across the U.S.
01:04:20Uh, fuck.
01:04:22Six people have died.
01:04:29No, no, this isn't my fault. It was Eric's fault. Eric with a K.
01:04:34It was his code that was faulty.
01:04:36No, that's fucking bullshit! I fired him before that happened.
01:04:39But I stumbled upon his tablet and the code that he wrote.
01:04:43I'm only guilty of using his work. Everything else was his fault.
01:04:48I wrote the amelioration algorithm.
01:04:51God, it mistook the genius for the loser.
01:04:54I'm not going down like this.
01:04:57Dorsey Tech ain't finished yet.
01:04:59It's not finished yet.
01:05:00Griffin!
01:05:01Take this man to the police.
01:05:02If Dorsey Tech goes under, he'll have to pay for this.
01:05:05Yes, sir.
01:05:06If Dorsey Tech goes under, he'll have to pay for this.
01:05:10Yes, sir.
01:05:11It's not finished yet.
01:05:12Noo!
01:05:15Noo!
01:05:18Noo!
01:05:20Noo!
01:05:21Nooooo!
01:05:23No!
01:05:24Noooo!
01:05:25Noo!
01:05:26Please, please, please, please.
01:05:27Cheers!
01:05:33Mr. Brown, looks like your contract worked in our favor,
01:05:36so we will not be returning the five billion dollars you invested.
01:05:40And again, thank you for your generosity.
01:05:43Wait, do I at least deserve some dividends?
01:05:46I'm sorry, Mr. Brown, but the terms you insisted on were very clear.
01:05:50We beat Dorsey Tech, so we owe you nothing,
01:05:53which includes any dividends you might have otherwise received.
01:05:57No, no more buts.
01:06:00Goodbye, Mr. Brown.
01:06:09Tonight, I'll give you that reward I was telling you about.
01:06:13Oh, I'm sure it'll be very special.
01:06:18You have no idea.
01:06:21Eric!
01:06:23I know I messed up before.
01:06:26It's all over for Dorsey Tech now.
01:06:29Is there anything you could do to help me?
01:06:33What the hell are you doing grabbing my boyfriend?
01:06:37Boyfriend?
01:06:38That's right.
01:06:40I'm his girlfriend now.
01:06:42We're living together and we're getting married soon, too.
01:06:45He...
01:06:46But...
01:06:47You...
01:06:48You...
01:06:49You can't...
01:06:50No, it's not possible!
01:06:52He was mine first!
01:06:54You dumped him and you treated him like trash!
01:06:59It's a little late for you to come crawling back.
01:07:03Guys...
01:07:04Can we...
01:07:05Eric...
01:07:07No!
01:07:08Eric...
01:07:09You're hot when you're bossy.
01:07:19You like?
01:07:20Yeah.
01:07:21Eric...
01:07:22What?
01:07:26Eric...
01:07:27What is it now?
01:07:29Eric...
01:07:30You know how much I've done for you.
01:07:41Dorsey Tech is in dire straits.
01:07:46We need your help.
01:07:47Mr. Dorsey...
01:07:48All those things you gave me...
01:07:50I've returned when your son accused me of hacking the company server and demanding compensation.
01:07:58Oh, has he not told you?
01:08:00No, that is not how it went down at all.
01:08:03It was that dirtbag, Eric with the C, who went behind my back and got me all mixed up.
01:08:09Oh, yeah?
01:08:10Well, your little mix-up made me lose everything I had, including my career.
01:08:15Did it feel good to make me the scapegoat for your mistake?
01:08:20Eric, I am really sorry.
01:08:24I don't want your fake apology, and I'm not coming back to you.
01:08:30So, would you please leave our office?
01:08:36Now, would you please leave our office?
01:08:41We wish Dorsey Tech the very best.
01:08:45You fucking doomed us, son!
01:08:48You doomed Dorsey Tech!
01:08:50Oh!
01:08:51Dead, dead, dead!
01:08:52Dead!
