00:00:00Candidates will make it to national level. All done.
00:00:03Xosha Sanchez.
00:00:05Advisor Margaret Harmon.
00:00:07You should be honored that I'm using your work to climb to the top.
00:00:11I must win this contest.
00:00:12Only then will I prove that Becky Cain stole mom's research.
00:00:16I'll be head judge at today's contest.
00:00:18What's a woman doing going to school anyway? She should just drop out.
00:00:22Did someone help you cheat? Is it your mentor?
00:00:25Leave my daughter out of this!
00:00:27And when I beat you, Becky Cain, you will give back what you owe my mother.
00:00:31Difficulty increased by 100 times.
00:00:33She can't actually be solving it.
00:00:35You are my greatest pride and our nation's greatest hope.
00:00:39Make all the women in tech proud!
00:00:41Go Xosha!
00:00:42Xosha!
00:00:43Xosha! Xosha! Xosha! Xosha!
00:00:45I will make math history and prove that you're a cheat.
00:00:49That the winner of this year's Math Olympiad is...
00:00:57It's the state prelims for this year's Math Olympiad.
00:01:04Only one candidate will make it to national level.
00:01:08Who will it be?
00:01:09The last question on the test this year is of the utmost difficulty.
00:01:13An unsolvable mathematical model could change microchip technology forever.
00:01:18No student has yet to attempt or even turn in their tests.
00:01:24It is that hard.
00:01:26Down to the last minute.
00:01:28Can no one really solve this problem?
00:01:30I told you, Reeds, these are high schoolers.
00:01:32They're not going to be able to solve a problem that baffles the entire microchip industry.
00:01:36We are falling behind in microchip tech, and I am tired of outsourcing to other countries.
00:01:41That is exactly why we need to give Youngblood a chance.
00:01:44And your answer is what?
00:01:45These teenagers?
00:01:47And as you well know, Apollo Tech is number one in tech in the United States.
00:01:50I can't see any of these kids being able to solve this.
00:01:57All done.
00:02:06Xocia Sanchez is the first to finish.
00:02:11No, you're the girl from West Virginia, right?
00:02:13The state with all the dumb hillbillies?
00:02:17You sure you don't want to double check your answers?
00:02:20There's no need for that.
00:02:21She says she's done, just take it.
00:02:24What can a farm Barbie amount to anyway?
00:02:27I bet her answer sheet is blank.
00:02:29The test questions were indeed beyond the level of this state competition, but if I were you,
00:02:34I would log my answers in immediately.
00:02:36It might just change the trajectory of our future.
00:02:41Okay.
00:02:42What a joke.
00:02:44Not even Apollo Tech researchers can solve this math model.
00:02:48How could she?
00:02:50Must have been a blank test.
00:02:54Wait.
00:02:55She solved it.
00:03:00She solved it.
00:03:01Quick.
00:03:02Put it in the system.
00:03:04Microchip mathematical model.
00:03:06Answer submitted.
00:03:08Analyzing.
00:03:09Okay.
00:03:09Someone handed in their answer.
00:03:10Hold on.
00:03:12No one's been able to solve this.
00:03:14Even if somebody handed in an answer, it's probably just a blind guess.
00:03:16I give you a 99.9% chance that this answer is wrong.
00:03:20Analysis complete.
00:03:22Solution correct.
00:03:23Correct.
00:03:27We found the genius we've been looking for.
00:03:30He could save the microchip industry.
00:03:31He could save the entire mathematical world.
00:03:33Come on.
00:03:33Quick.
00:03:34Look him up.
00:03:34I know what Ivy League college he goes to.
00:03:38It's a girl.
00:03:42No.
00:03:43There's no way.
00:03:44This is just a hillbilly girl.
00:03:45There's no way she solved this math problem.
00:03:47It doesn't matter where she's from.
00:03:49She can be the key to the next breakthrough in our technology.
00:03:51We must find her now.
00:03:55Mom.
00:03:55Mom.
00:03:56I did it.
00:03:57I actually did it.
00:04:00The last question of the math Olympiad.
00:04:02I solved it.
00:04:03You mean the microchip modeling problem that nobody solved for decades?
00:04:07Oh, Xochitl.
00:04:13I'm so proud of you.
00:04:20Here are the shoes I've been to.
00:04:24Mom, you're the best.
00:04:26It's all thanks to you for taking me under your wings and passing down your math knowledge to me.
00:04:30You are my only family.
00:04:32Of course I'd do anything for you.
00:04:35I knew you would never turn into that horrible Becky Kane.
00:04:41You mean your former protege?
00:04:42The youngest math professor at Princeton?
00:04:44Yes.
00:04:46Yes.
00:04:52Yes.
00:04:53I've succeeded.
00:04:57Professor, is this your new microchip math model?
00:05:00Yes.
00:05:01Well, this advances our technology by at least a decade.
00:05:07Whoever has this will surely win the Nobel Prize.
00:05:11In three days, I will hold a conference announcing to the world that we no longer need to rely on foreign suppliers for the best microchips.
00:05:19This changes everything.
00:05:20Hello, everyone.
00:05:32I am proud to announce my latest mathematical discovery.
00:05:36I am confident that it will advance microchip technology in stride.
00:05:41Stop!
00:05:43I call fraud.
00:05:45Margaret Harmon stole my research results.
00:05:50It can't be.
00:05:56Margaret Harmon is well-respected in Silicon Valley.
00:05:58Her work has been monumental.
00:06:01Only one of a few women.
00:06:03Becky, you're my student.
00:06:05How can you accuse me of this?
00:06:07This is my graduate thesis.
00:06:08It has been certified by five academic journals.
00:06:14No.
00:06:15You stole and patented my work before I could?
00:06:19It's my work.
00:06:20Of course, I can patent it.
00:06:21I have a witness, too.
00:06:23Yes.
00:06:25I am the director of science and technology.
00:06:27And I attest, Miss Becky Kane did submit her thesis to me three days ago.
00:06:33So it's true.
00:06:34Margaret Harmon stole her students' work.
00:06:36You're stripped of your position, Harmon.
00:06:41No.
00:06:41No, no, no, no.
00:06:43I, I, I...
00:06:43This is my work.
00:06:45I didn't...
00:06:47You don't belong in the math hall of fame anymore.
00:06:52I do.
00:06:53I do.
00:06:53This is my work.
00:07:02I, I didn't plagiarize anything.
00:07:04This is...
00:07:04Security!
00:07:05Throw her out.
00:07:06It's my life.
00:07:07It's my work.
00:07:08It's...
00:07:08No!
00:07:09Please, I didn't plagiarize anything.
00:07:12It's mine.
00:07:14Oh, no.
00:07:16I don't understand.
00:07:17Please.
00:07:17Oh, no.
00:07:19You don't understand.
00:07:20Oh!
00:07:21You should be honored that I'm using your work to climb to the top.
00:07:30I'm inheriting your math legacy, professor.
00:07:34No, it's my life's work.
00:07:40Oh, God.
00:07:42Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:07:45Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:07:45Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:07:51Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
00:08:21Sign, sign, sign!
00:08:26Do you like math?
00:08:28Yep. Have no ma, no pa, but I found this math textbook in the trash.
00:08:35It's the one thing none of the bullies will take away from me.
00:08:40That's all I have, too.
00:08:43What's your name, little one?
00:08:46My name's Xosha.
00:08:49Xosha?
00:08:51How about you and me become a family from now on?
00:09:01If it wasn't for you, I probably would have died on the streets.
00:09:05After the first round of exam, Xosha's Ascension is in first place for National Monthly.
00:09:10Oh, Xosha.
00:09:13Oh, I'm so proud of you.
00:09:17Xosha's Ascension is in first place for National Monthly.
00:09:21Xosha Sanchez.
00:09:24From West Virginia?
00:09:25What is this, a tractor princess competition now?
00:09:30Advisor Margaret Harmon.
00:09:32That old hag again?
00:09:33What if this hillbilly brat really is a math genius?
00:09:39They'll prove that I'm really an idiot and take away my Nobel Prize.
00:09:43I can't let that happen.
00:09:44Yes.
00:09:45Tell the press that Xosha Sanchez cheated at the competition.
00:10:01The results of the math Olympiad are being contested.
00:10:04They say you cheated, Xosha Sanchez.
00:10:06Are you going to accept the rematch?
00:10:08Did you cheat?
00:10:09Leave my daughter alone.
00:10:11Hey.
00:10:11Mom, don't worry.
00:10:12I got this.
00:10:14I'm going to prove to the world what a real math genius looks like.
00:10:18And prove that Becky Cain is the real cheat.
00:10:21Oh, God.
00:10:22Damn it.
00:10:26Academics are questioning the results.
00:10:29They want to know how a small-town girl from the middle of nowhere finished first.
00:10:32They think we helped her cheat.
00:10:34They want a rematch.
00:10:36Then let's host a rematch.
00:10:37We can live stream the entire thing.
00:10:41We can even have in-person judges present.
00:10:49I'll be a judge for the rematch.
00:10:51Becky Cain.
00:10:54The youngest Nobel Prize winner in mathematics.
00:10:57Becky Cain.
00:10:58It's an honor.
00:11:00Okay, then.
00:11:01Looks like it's settled.
00:11:03We'll host a rematch.
00:11:04Becky, you'll be our head judge.
00:11:05Let's see if Xosha Sanchez really is a genius.
00:11:15You can do this, Xosha.
00:11:17I believe in you.
00:11:22Long time no see, my dear professor.
00:11:27Oh.
00:11:28Oh, what is that stench?
00:11:30It's you.
00:11:32It's you.
00:11:33Hey, you.
00:11:34Mom, mom, mom.
00:11:36Mom, be careful of your heart.
00:11:40And you're that low-down fraud that nixed my mother's research.
00:11:43The one who committed plagiarism is the old hag you're holding up.
00:11:47I hear you're a stinky janitor at some backwater high school now, Margaret.
00:11:53How pathetic.
00:11:54What matters is what's in our heads and our hearts.
00:11:57And yours is black.
00:12:00A farm girl and a janitor.
00:12:03What a pair.
00:12:05I can't tell who's going to embarrass who more.
00:12:08Ignore her mom.
00:12:09She's incapable of distinguishing between real intellect and memorize Elita's talking points.
00:12:14Isn't that right, Miss Overpriced Diploma?
00:12:17You could try to talk smart.
00:12:19But the whole world believes Margaret is the one who stole my research.
00:12:23I will prove her innocent.
00:12:25And they'll think you're a cheat, too.
00:12:28Even if you're really a genius, no one is going to believe you.
00:12:31I have a Nobel Prize.
00:12:33And you're still wearing donation rags from Goodwill.
00:12:36No, you should quit while you still can.
00:12:40She's right.
00:12:42Sochelle, I'm just going to drag you down so you...
00:12:44No, no, no, mom.
00:12:47I want you to witness me taking back everything that belongs to you.
00:12:51Oh, I forgot to mention.
00:12:54I'll be head judge at today's contest.
00:12:58I'm so sure she's going to rig the contest against you.
00:13:04I should have come here with you.
00:13:06I'm just going to drag you down.
00:13:09They don't think I'm a fraud.
00:13:14Hey, mom.
00:13:16You're not.
00:13:19I must win this contest.
00:13:21Only then will I prove that Becky Cain stole mom's research
00:13:24and will be able to afford mom's surgery.
00:13:27Welcome to the National Math Olympiad.
00:13:30The judges we have here today are esteemed professors
00:13:33from top Ivy League universities,
00:13:34including the one and only Professor Becky Cain,
00:13:38Nobel Prize winner for her work on microchip technology 10 years ago.
00:13:43I look better in person.
00:13:44Don't I?
00:13:45The contest begins.
00:13:47Let's invite the first two contestants up.
00:13:49Incorrect.
00:14:03Incorrect.
00:14:07Get off the stage!
00:14:11These are our nation's future experts.
00:14:13I'm so disappointed.
00:14:16Don't worry, Professor Cain.
00:14:18There's one more.
00:14:19The answer's infinity.
00:14:22There's one more.
00:14:24You mean that farm Barbie from Hillbilly Town?
00:14:26The one who's going to a community college?
00:14:29What's a girl doing in math anyway?
00:14:30I mean, is the circumference of her breasts bigger than the pig she feeds?
00:14:34That's the only number I care about.
00:14:36Margaret Harmon and Zosha Sanchez?
00:14:39You're about to fall into my trap.
00:14:42I'll make sure you both never return to the arenas of math and science.
00:14:46Please welcome the math genius from West Virginia,
00:14:49Zosha Sanchez!
00:14:55Enjoy the show.
00:14:56I will show the world what small-town girls are made of.
00:15:21I don't care about my dreams anymore.
00:15:23I only care about your future, Zosha.
00:15:30That's your so-called genius?
00:15:33Look at her shoes.
00:15:34She belongs at a swamp, not at a national contest.
00:15:38I checked her SAT score.
00:15:40It's just 584 out of 800.
00:15:43That's not genius at all.
00:15:45Oh, that is a C-.
00:15:47I only want C's when it's a cup size.
00:15:49Well, heck, D's are even better.
00:15:53Poor can only attend community college because they're morons.
00:15:58Just give up and go back to milking cow boobs.
00:16:02What a loser.
00:16:03She can't even get to the real university.
00:16:06Poor people don't have brainy jeans.
00:16:09They're meant to work on farms and wear rags like hers forever.
00:16:13The bottom branch of the society should stay at the bottom.
00:16:18Don't bring your cow downstage here.
00:16:21I told you, Zosha.
00:16:22You're too dumb and poor to compete on this stage.
00:16:26You can't even get into the Ivy League like me.
00:16:29I don't need to buy my way to prestige when I have the brains.
00:16:32I don't need to buy my way to prestige when I have the brains.
00:16:38I'd rather spend the money on mom's heart surgery.
00:16:41What's a woman doing going to school anyway?
00:16:43She should just drop out, marry her hillbilly cousin,
00:16:46pop out seven kids like the rest of her town.
00:16:49You should say that to the woman sitting next to you.
00:16:52Uh, Professor Becky Kane is an exception.
00:16:55She has a Nobel Prize.
00:16:56Ah, the double standards you so-called elitist academics hold.
00:17:03I'm so happy I'm not a part of your group.
00:17:04I am just here to win the prize money to take care of my mom.
00:17:09Okay, don't try distracting us, Zosha Sanchez.
00:17:12Explain.
00:17:13Someone with low scores like that could have never solved this math problem.
00:17:17Did someone help you cheat?
00:17:19Is it your mentor?
00:17:25No.
00:17:26They're going to attack her because of me.
00:17:30If you're so curious about my test scores,
00:17:32you should check out my entire high school record.
00:17:35I get exactly 73% on everything.
00:17:45Zosha, I heard your mother's ill and you need money.
00:17:49What do you want?
00:17:51I could help you with the money,
00:17:54but you can't score higher than me.
00:17:56On anything.
00:17:57I want to be valeditorium.
00:17:59That money can really help mom.
00:18:03It's a deal.
00:18:04How about I score exactly 73% on everything
00:18:07and 584 on the SATs.
00:18:11Fine.
00:18:11I get exactly 73% on everything.
00:18:20I get exactly 73% on everything.
00:18:23Pull up her school records.
00:18:24Every test score, every test score, every test score, every assignment, everything is exactly 73%.
00:18:33Is she manipulating her scores?
00:18:35Is she manipulating her scores?
00:18:37I've never seen such precise scoring before.
00:18:41She must be a real genius to do that.
00:18:47Dammit, she's showing off her smarts.
00:18:49I can't let anyone think she's smarter than me.
00:18:50Let me show you what real skill is.
00:18:54And I don't need to cheat like you to do it, Becky Cain.
00:18:59And I don't need to cheat like you to do it, Becky Cain.
00:19:03Did she just accuse Professor King of cheating?
00:19:05We weren't mentored by the same teacher for nothing.
00:19:08Wait, she's your underclassman?
00:19:13Not only is she my underclassman, but our mentor is here too.
00:19:18Is that...
00:19:19That's Margaret Harmon.
00:19:23Becky's right.
00:19:25Everyone's gonna attack Zosia because of me.
00:19:27That's right.
00:19:28Not only is Margaret Harmon the one who taught me all of my math,
00:19:33but she saved me from my orphan life.
00:19:35She is my mother.
00:19:46Your adoptive mother is the fraud who was stripped of all of her honors
00:19:51for plagiarizing Dr. Cain's thesis?
00:19:54Like mother, like daughter.
00:19:55It's like I was saying.
00:19:57Women should just stay home, popping out babies, making sandwiches.
00:20:01That's why they need to cheat to get ahead.
00:20:03How dare she show her face again?
00:20:05Absolutely detestable.
00:20:07What an embarrassment.
00:20:09Get her off the stage!
00:20:12Leave my daughter out of this!
00:20:16Leave my daughter out of this.
00:20:19Hello again, Professor.
00:20:21I'm surprised you'd be arrogant enough to come back.
00:20:23And this time, to help your trailer trash daughter cheat.
00:20:28I didn't cheat.
00:20:30And I'm not here to help anyone cheat either.
00:20:33Drop the act!
00:20:34We all know how you stole my research trying to win a Nobel Prize.
00:20:40And now you're helping your daughter cheat after you've done it once already.
00:20:43You have no shame.
00:20:45You're both frauds, and you will be punished.
00:20:50Wait.
00:20:51Xosha Sanchez's mentor is Margaret Harmon?
00:20:54The once-renowned mathematician, the computer scientist.
00:20:56I remember her previous work, a greatly advanced microchip technology before.
00:21:00With her abilities, I wouldn't be surprised if she helped Xosha cheat to solve the supposedly unsolvable math problem.
00:21:07So we've been fooled.
00:21:11Xosha Sanchez really isn't a genius, huh?
00:21:15You're both frauds, and you will be punished.
00:21:19It's just us, all right?
00:21:21You'll be okay.
00:21:22Okay.
00:21:23I'm okay.
00:21:25Okay.
00:21:32No wonder she was able to solve this impossible mess, Froggy.
00:21:36She cheated.
00:21:38Shame on you!
00:21:39We don't want them here!
00:21:41Drop out now!
00:21:43Drop out!
00:21:44Drop out!
00:21:45Drop out!
00:21:46Drop out!
00:21:46Drop out!
00:21:47Drop out!
00:21:48Oh, isn't this scene familiar?
00:21:51Drop out!
00:21:53Margaret Harmon is a fraud.
00:21:55She stole her students' work.
00:22:01Poor girl can't even prove that she deserves to go to a real university.
00:22:05Yeah, farmhouse brat.
00:22:06Run back to the hills!
00:22:07Your hillbillies don't deserve to stand where we stand.
00:22:13As head of the math department at CalSTEM, I represent all of the contestants.
00:22:18We hereby call for Xosha Sanchez to drop out!
00:22:21You may be the best in a trailer park, but even the dumbest of us Ivy Leagues are leagues above you.
00:22:31If we can't solve it, there's no way she could have.
00:22:34It's unfair that a soft story cheated at the National Math and appeared.
00:22:37She couldn't even get here on Diversity Acceptance.
00:22:40She had to cheat her way here.
00:22:42You're all so sore for losing to someone like me.
00:22:47You cheat!
00:22:51You may dress nicer, but you all have no class.
00:22:54Cheaters!
00:22:57Cheaters!
00:23:05I'm not interested in holding rank amongst you superficial brand lovers.
00:23:10But I won't let you call my mom a fraud.
00:23:13So watch this, Becky Cain.
00:23:16Systems activate unsolvable math problem number two.
00:23:19MicroKip Technology's three hardest math problems.
00:23:22Question hash two.
00:23:23Difficulty increased by 100 times.
00:23:25Let's make a bet.
00:23:27Let's see who can solve the next unsolvable math problem.
00:23:30Fair and square.
00:23:34And when I beat you, Becky Cain, you will give back what you owe my mother.
00:23:37Her Nobel Prize in all of her research funding.
00:23:41I think that's a great idea.
00:23:42We can watch the great Professor Cain Atwood.
00:23:44True.
00:23:45You haven't published in 10 years.
00:23:47Winning against this brat on national television would make for a great comeback.
00:23:52I can't let everyone realize I'm actually just a rich idiot.
00:23:57I know you're both jealous.
00:23:59Because Margaret's portrait was replaced with mine in the Math Hall of Fame.
00:24:02But how could I lower myself to compete against the likes of you?
00:24:05True. You know, Becky is much too important for this.
00:24:09Yeah, we'll see if you can even solve the problem first.
00:24:12But if you can't, you and your mother will be exiled from math and science forever.
00:24:18Oh, Xosia, think of your career. You can't take that risk.
00:24:22Deal.
00:24:24Trust me, Mom.
00:24:25I believe in all the math you taught me.
00:24:26Do you even know what you're talking about?
00:24:38You know that male mathematicians have struggled with these equations for ages.
00:24:44Each problem is significantly more difficult than the last.
00:24:47The first problem took Ivy League math professors decades to solve.
00:24:51And the second problem would have taken Einstein centuries.
00:24:53Precisely. If the first problem you solve was basic mode, then the second problem is God cheer.
00:25:00It's a hundred times more difficult than the first problem.
00:25:02How can a girl handle that?
00:25:05Our rivals across the sea just recently solved the second problem.
00:25:09So how do you, a high schooler with no money and no resources, solve it?
00:25:14Zosia Sanchez, you really think someone dressed like you can solve this?
00:25:19And your name will go down in history?
00:25:22That's what she gets for punching higher than her weight.
00:25:26Go back to being a clown at your town roadshow.
00:25:29You know, I don't care about being in any Hall of Fame.
00:25:32But my abilities aren't for a cheat like you to decide.
00:25:35How dare you call me a cheat?
00:25:36You know, you'd do anything for me, Gloria.
00:25:39But I would never sink down to your level.
00:25:42You don't even have the brains to know whether I'm correct or not.
00:25:46I am here thanks to my mother.
00:25:49So why don't we bring out the second math problem?
00:25:51That might be against the rules.
00:25:52Let her have it.
00:25:54I want to watch her fail in front of everyone.
00:25:56Here's your second problem, Zosia.
00:25:58And the second problem is strong Goldbach's conjecture.
00:26:05This problem requires expertise in number theory, topology, and mathematical modeling to solve.
00:26:11There is no way she can solve it.
00:26:13Weak Goldbach's conjecture wasn't solved until 2013.
00:26:17Goldbach came up with it in 1742.
00:26:20Strong Goldbach's conjecture remains unsolved even today.
00:26:25It took the world 300 years just to solve the easy version of this.
00:26:28Yes.
00:26:28Now, if this can be proven, it will change computer science and cryptology forever.
00:26:33Zosia Sanchez, you can still give up now.
00:26:36You just have to admit on national television that you're a fraud and apologize to me.
00:26:42I wouldn't be so quick to your own demise, Professor.
00:26:46I will soon be the only person to solve Goldbach's conjecture.
00:26:54I will make math history and prove that you're a cheat.
00:26:58Oh, you've got nothing on me.
00:27:04But when you fail, just remember, you brought this upon yourself.
00:27:09Stupid girl.
00:27:10This problem is impossible.
00:27:12I'll have you and your precious mother exiled from math forever.
00:27:17Oh, my God.
00:27:18Can Zosia really solve this?
00:27:20We both tried proving strong Goldbach's conjecture.
00:27:23I mean, even with the help of nationally recognized mathematicians, I don't know about this one.
00:27:26This might be, um, hopeless.
00:27:29Wait.
00:27:30She's working.
00:27:31She's so dumb, she's falling asleep.
00:27:52No wonder she was able to solve this impossible math problem.
00:27:56She cheated.
00:28:03Margaret, your student is just as arrogant as you are, claiming she can prove strong Goldbach's conjecture when no one's ever done it before.
00:28:11It's okay, Zosia.
00:28:14Strong Goldbach's conjecture is nearly impossible.
00:28:17You don't have to force yourself from me.
00:28:19Zosia Sanchez, drop out and leave if you're not going to solve anything.
00:28:24We're not here for some clown show.
00:28:26Go back to your farm and hump your bull.
00:28:29I'd pay to see that.
00:28:30The real show starts now.
00:28:49Damn it.
00:28:51She can't actually be solving it, right?
00:28:54She's actually solving it.
00:28:56No, no, it can't be, can't be.
00:28:58No one's solved this in, like, 300 years.
00:29:00Don't let her fool you.
00:29:01She's just writing gibberish on screen.
00:29:04Stop embarrassing yourself, Sanchez.
00:29:06We can all see through your scam act.
00:29:09Fraud is a serious criminal offense.
00:29:12I'll have you arrested.
00:29:13You know, I agree with you, Professor Kane.
00:29:16Frauds like you who stole my mother's research and published it as their own, that is indeed a crime.
00:29:22I dare you to call the police because the one who should be arrested is you.
00:29:26Okay, who said anything about calling the police?
00:29:28I'm just giving you a chance to hurry up.
00:29:31You all doubt me.
00:29:32My test scores, my grades.
00:29:35You think that my mom helped me cheat.
00:29:36But Margaret Harmon is the one who adopted me.
00:29:40She taught me how to be a good mathematician and a good person.
00:29:44She is no fraud.
00:29:45I am so proud to be your daughter.
00:29:51And I am proud to be your student.
00:29:53I will make math history today and prove her innocence.
00:30:04That proof that she's working off of, that looks like the proof of weak Goldbach's conjecture.
00:30:14Can somebody think that to her?
00:30:16No, impossible.
00:30:17That information is classified due to the impact that it has on cryptography.
00:30:20I mean, not to mention.
00:30:22She's going beyond that now.
00:30:25She's solving it.
00:30:26She's solving Strong Goldbach's conjecture.
00:30:30I mean, that has never been done.
00:30:33Let's go watch history be made.
00:30:38I solved it.
00:30:40She really did it.
00:30:41How?
00:30:43How could she?
00:30:44It must be Margaret Harmon.
00:30:46They cheated together.
00:30:48She wants revenge on me.
00:30:49They're plotting to take everything away from me.
00:30:52I can't believe it.
00:30:54No one has solved Strong Goldbach's conjecture in 300 years.
00:30:57And Zosia has solved it.
00:31:01You make me so proud, Zosia.
00:31:09You did it.
00:31:11You know, I don't really mind your insults.
00:31:15But you accused my mom of things she didn't do.
00:31:17You called her a fraud and you stripped her of her positions and her honors.
00:31:21I solved your math problems.
00:31:26Now apologize to my mother.
00:31:34Apologize.
00:31:35To her?
00:31:37Never.
00:31:38So what?
00:31:38You've submitted an answer.
00:31:40It has to be proven correct first.
00:31:42It's just a bunch of symbols.
00:31:44Anybody can fake that.
00:31:45And everyone knows hillbillies are illiterate.
00:31:48You're an esteemed math professor from which Ivy League again?
00:31:52Harvard.
00:31:53Oh, well, I guess they don't teach class over there.
00:31:55Oh, and, uh, what do you know about class?
00:31:59You're just a high school brat from some backwater town, high society.
00:32:04It's just an extra moonshine.
00:32:06I'll bet my job that she wrote nonsense on her paper like an ignorant jackass.
00:32:11I'll take that bet, then.
00:32:16I'll take that bet, then.
00:32:18How can she be so confident?
00:32:21That proof, that is top secret proof of the weak version of Goldbach's conjecture.
00:32:26It's classified information.
00:32:28You're right.
00:32:28That is the classified proof.
00:32:30I was part of the group of mathematicians that helped confirm it, so I remember.
00:32:35Xosha Sanchez is guilty of stealing state secrets.
00:32:39I know what it is.
00:32:40Oh, Margaret Harmon was there when we confirmed the proof.
00:32:44It is she who leaked classified information to Xosha Sanchez.
00:32:49Stop making up false accusations.
00:32:52I wasn't even there.
00:32:54Oh, come on, Margaret.
00:32:56You plagiarize my thesis.
00:32:58Stealing classified information is nothing to you.
00:33:01They're both frauds.
00:33:03They can never be as smart as men.
00:33:05Throw them in prison.
00:33:06Security!
00:33:08No, no, no.
00:33:09I figured this problem myself.
00:33:10Do not touch my mother.
00:33:11Do not touch my mom.
00:33:12I figured it out myself.
00:33:14I didn't plagiarize anything.
00:33:15Mom!
00:33:16Mom!
00:33:19Mom, Mom, please be gentle with my mother.
00:33:24Please, you cannot frame me without evidence.
00:33:27Xosha, you're just a high school brat.
00:33:29No one's going to believe you proved strong gold box conjecture when no one's done it for 300 years.
00:33:35You're just afraid that I'm going to expose you for your crimes.
00:33:39You're no math genius.
00:33:40Look around.
00:33:41You're just a kid.
00:33:43Here, let's ask the judges.
00:33:44Do you believe her?
00:33:46Professor Walker, Professor Douglas.
00:33:47Not from a girl who can't even afford appropriate clothing to wear at a national contest.
00:33:53All that moonshine has rotted her tiny brain.
00:33:55No, of course not.
00:33:57See, there's a reason my portrait's the one hung up on the wall.
00:34:01All you ever learned from your mother is how to commit fraud.
00:34:06Oh.
00:34:06I'll give you one less chance.
00:34:11All you have to do is admit that Margaret leaked you classified information, and I'll spare you.
00:34:16I'll never admit to your lies.
00:34:19And I can't save you.
00:34:21Mom.
00:34:22Report them to the FBI.
00:34:24No, you'll cripple Xosha's career forever.
00:34:27You have no right to speak here.
00:34:29You already lost all your respect when you plagiarized Dr. King's thesis.
00:34:34You two can't win against me.
00:34:36I'm the world-renowned math genius now after stealing your research.
00:34:40Everyone believes me.
00:34:42Crush them!
00:34:44Stop!
00:34:45Stop it!
00:34:50Stop!
00:34:53Stop it!
00:34:54Mr. Jensen, CEO of Apollo Tech.
00:35:00He is a player in the microchip industry.
00:35:02And Mr. Rees, the organizer of the National Math Olympiad.
00:35:05You are about to imprison the math genius of the century.
00:35:08Math genius?
00:35:10She's hardly a math genius.
00:35:12You let her go immediately.
00:35:21Who are you?
00:35:22The leaders of the microchip industry, they chose these problems for the Math Olympiad.
00:35:27We'd love to have a genius like you at Apollo Tech.
00:35:30Mr. Jensen, years ago, Margaret Harmon plagiarized my thesis.
00:35:35Now, she's leaked the classified proof of gold box conjecture to her daughter, Xosha.
00:35:40Report them to the FBI.
00:35:42Please, look at the work.
00:35:44It's exactly the same as the proof we confirmed back then.
00:35:47It is indeed the same classified proof of weak gold box conjecture.
00:35:51Then it's time to call the FBI.
00:35:52In fact, it's gone far beyond the proof that we confirmed several years ago.
00:35:56This is strong gold box conjecture.
00:35:58Xosha solved it.
00:36:06Xosha Sanchez is just a high school vagabond.
00:36:09And a girl.
00:36:10Look at her clothes.
00:36:12I promise my work is 100% sound.
00:36:15Okay, let's check it then.
00:36:16Perhaps Ms. Kane here is unaware that checking a proof like this requires incredible computing
00:36:21power.
00:36:21Power of 10 to the 18th.
00:36:23Correct.
00:36:24We would have to take this to the nation's biggest supercomputer facility in order to
00:36:28confirm the accuracy of Xosha's work.
00:36:29We could take all of the computing power in this room, and at best, we could calculate
00:36:33perhaps 5% of the proof.
00:36:36I thought that our goal here was to advance microchip technology.
00:36:40If this proof doesn't do that, then isn't it kind of useless to our industry?
00:36:44I'm willing to submit my work to be tested.
00:36:50I'm willing to submit my work to be tested.
00:36:52If your proof fails, that means you and your mother, Margaret Harmon, are both frogs.
00:36:57And we'll have you both thrown in prison for the rest of your lives.
00:37:02Xosha, are you sure you want to do this?
00:37:05I'm 100% confident.
00:37:08It was my mother's dream to work on this project before Becky Kane stole it.
00:37:12I support this.
00:37:14If Xosha's proof is correct, we'll have a math genius that could help us win the global
00:37:18chips war.
00:37:19We should support young blood, Jensen.
00:37:20Listen, then let's do it.
00:37:24And I will gather all of the computing power in Silicon Valley to check.
00:37:28What?
00:37:29All the power of Silicon Valley?
00:37:32Well, that will overload the power grid and cause a citywide blackout.
00:37:36The financial ramifications of this are unfathomable.
00:37:39Will this kid even be held accountable for all of that?
00:37:42The pressure is great, Xosha, but it's okay.
00:37:46I will be the person held accountable of Xosha's proof.
00:37:50I will be the person held accountable of Xosha's proof.
00:37:57No, mom, you can't.
00:37:59No.
00:37:59Yes, Xosha, you are my greatest pride and our nation's greatest hope.
00:38:07For years, our country has been lagging behind, and I do this for our country and for the
00:38:12women in STEM.
00:38:12But most of all, I do it for you.
00:38:16Because I believe in you, Xosha.
00:38:19I do.
00:38:19Margaret Harmon, you've already been exiled from the field of mathematics.
00:38:23Why do we even care about you anymore?
00:38:26Well, what if I add my weight?
00:38:27I'll be held accountable if Xosha's proof fails.
00:38:30And I'm in as well.
00:38:31The CEO of Apollo Tech?
00:38:34If you back her up, too, really.
00:38:39Thank you for believing in Xosha.
00:38:43Perfect.
00:38:44I can get rid of you two once and for all.
00:38:47Oh, and I just got the governor's approval to use all of the computing power from Silicon
00:38:51Valley to check Xosha's proof.
00:38:53Amazing.
00:38:54If I'm correct, I want Becky Cain's work to be re-examined for plagiarism.
00:39:03Okay, we don't even know if she's correct yet.
00:39:05Let's not be talking about checking award-winning work.
00:39:09The bet is still on.
00:39:10Margaret Harmon and Xosha Sanchez will be exiled from STEM if the proof fails.
00:39:15Are you sure about this, Xosha?
00:39:18Despite the consequences.
00:39:20Absolutely.
00:39:21Fantastic.
00:39:25All of the computer power from Silicon Valley will be transferred to the AI in this room
00:39:30in the next 10 minutes.
00:39:34So is that a solution that would potentially work for you?
00:39:37Stop the meeting.
00:39:38Yes!
00:39:40Nice, nice.
00:39:42Xosha Harmon is on the verge of the next great tech discovery.
00:39:46But we need your computing power to finish the test.
00:39:48If you agree, please hit the yes button.
00:39:51The number one tech company in the world needs my help?
00:39:54Oh my gosh!
00:39:55A woman in STEM?
00:39:56Better microchips and GPUs.
00:39:58Hells yeah!
00:40:00Yes!
00:40:00Everyone hit yes on ship advancement.
00:40:04Oh my god.
00:40:08This will change our industry forever.
00:40:12It looks like even those outside of Silicon Valley are supporting this research.
00:40:15The world believes in the work we do.
00:40:18They understand how monumental it is.
00:40:20Computing power acquired.
00:40:22We may begin.
00:40:23I won't disappoint them.
00:40:25You can do this, Xosha.
00:40:49Make all the women in tech proud.
00:40:51Yes!
00:40:52Go Xosha!
00:40:53Max my GPU!
00:40:55Xosha!
00:40:56Xosha!
00:40:57Xosha!
00:40:58Xosha!
00:40:59Xosha!
00:41:00Xosha!
00:41:00Xosha!
00:41:01Xosha!
00:41:01Accelerate!
00:41:02Accelerate!
00:41:02Accelerate!
00:41:03Accelerate!
00:41:04Accelerate!
00:41:05Accelerate!
00:41:05Accelerate!
00:41:05Analysis 100% complete.
00:41:18Did Xosha get it?
00:41:23Congratulations, Xosha Sanchez.
00:41:25You have proved strong gold box conviction.
00:41:30You've succeeded, my child.
00:41:33No one's ever done it before.
00:41:34We can create the greatest encrypted microchips in the world now.
00:41:39History has been made.
00:41:42You've kept my dream alive all these years, and now you've completed it.
00:41:55She did it!
00:41:59Impossible.
00:42:00I won our bet, Becky Kane.
00:42:02Now it's time to apologize to my mother.
00:42:10On national television?
00:42:12You wish.
00:42:13I'm a Nobel Prize winner.
00:42:16The youngest professor at Princeton.
00:42:18You're all nothing compared to me.
00:42:21You stole my mother's research, and you tried to frame me for cheating.
00:42:25But you failed.
00:42:26It is time to check Becky Kane's work in the last 10 years.
00:42:31The world will know who the real fraud is.
00:42:33Who are you to check my work?
00:42:36You're just trailer trash.
00:42:38That swamp stench of yours will always be an embarrassment to academia.
00:42:43They'd rather have me than you.
00:42:45You're wrong.
00:42:46In academia, we care about merit and honesty.
00:42:49If you only got that Nobel Prize because you plagiarized Ms. Harmon's work...
00:42:53Then it's our turn to strip Becky Kane of her honors and her position in the math hall of fame.
00:42:58You wouldn't.
00:43:03You can't.
00:43:04If she really stole Ms. Harmon's work, then it would make sense why Becky Kane hasn't done anything ever since.
00:43:10The only thing she ever wrote, she plagiarized.
00:43:15What you owe my mother, I will have you give it all back ten times over.
00:43:19Zosia Sanchez, if you can solve strong Goldbach's conjecture, then we were wrong about you, and we're sorry.
00:43:27You indeed are a genius.
00:43:29It was Becky Kane who told us to sabotage you.
00:43:32You're all betraying me too?
00:43:34Hey, I helped you get that position at CalSTEM.
00:43:41Briving students to help take Zosia down seems a bit suspicious, Ms. Kane.
00:43:46Check Becky's work.
00:43:47Exactly.
00:43:49If I had to check my proof, then it's only fair that she does too.
00:43:55If I had to check my proof, then it's only fair that she does too.
00:43:59Check her work!
00:44:01Check her work!
00:44:03Check her work!
00:44:05Check her work!
00:44:06You can all shut up!
00:44:08Oh, remember, I'm in the math hall of fame.
00:44:13There's only one person in the entire country who has the authority to challenge my work.
00:44:20Wait, does she mean the director of science and technology?
00:44:22The highest government office in tech?
00:44:25Could it be Thomas Oppen?
00:44:27That's right.
00:44:29It's me.
00:44:34That's right.
00:44:36It's me.
00:44:37It's him.
00:44:40He corroborated with Becky to steal my research ten years ago.
00:44:43I call fraud.
00:44:46Margaret Harmon stole my research results.
00:44:49I have a witness too.
00:44:50I attest that Miss Becky Kane did submit her thesis to me three days ago.
00:44:55You don't belong in the math hall of fame anymore.
00:44:57I do.
00:45:00You're just in time, honey.
00:45:02And Charles, my top student.
00:45:05Well, I saw you were in a little bit of trouble, so of course I had to come.
00:45:09I can't believe you let that loser turn this crowd against you.
00:45:15Yeah, and Sosha may have proved strong gold box conjecture, but I recorded her work on here.
00:45:27We can claim it as our own.
00:45:30That proof is our nation's latest top secret discovery.
00:45:33That can make the best microchips in the world.
00:45:36She's stealing, just like how she stole Miss Harmon's work.
00:45:42I am the director of science and tech, and that means, newsflash, we can do whatever we want.
00:45:47You are despicable, Becky Kane.
00:45:51My mom taught you all her math, and you betrayed her.
00:45:54Not only did you steal her thesis, but you'd sleep with an old man for fame and power?
00:46:01So what?
00:46:02You have nothing to your name.
00:46:04Who are you to judge me?
00:46:06Oh, I've heard all about you.
00:46:08Just an orphan from the boonies.
00:46:11Young girls raised on pig slop in the swamps.
00:46:15Born to be stepped on by the likes of us.
00:46:18You see, we're the elite.
00:46:21My boyfriend is the director of all things STEM.
00:46:24He is the law in our field.
00:46:33He is the law in our field.
00:46:34You can't arrest me with him here.
00:46:36You hear that, everyone?
00:46:39She got her position by sleeping with an old white man.
00:46:44She's no math genius at all.
00:46:46You and your sickly, sickly mother are just a waste of space, and there is no way I'm going to allow you to win this competition.
00:46:58Well, I think there's still one unsolvable math problem left, and I challenge you, Becky Cain.
00:47:08She's right.
00:47:13She already solved two of the unsolvable math problems.
00:47:16That means that she can challenge any professor at any level to a math duel.
00:47:20Do something.
00:47:22We can't let them expose us as frauds.
00:47:23Hey, don't worry.
00:47:24Don't worry.
00:47:25We got a little secret weapon.
00:47:28Hmm.
00:47:29Ahem.
00:47:29Sure, we'll accept your math duel, but you have to defeat my student first.
00:47:36Hmm?
00:47:37Charles is the top math student in all of Princeton.
00:47:42See, because you're such a young punk, you have to defeat Becky's student first before you could ever get a chance to go up against the likes of her.
00:47:51Yeah.
00:47:52That's right, Zosia.
00:47:53It's in the rule book.
00:47:54You have to be careful, Zosia.
00:47:55Yeah, Charles has been crowned the youngest math Olympiad winner since even before you at age 10.
00:48:02I remember him.
00:48:03He's a legitimate genius.
00:48:04He's only studying with Becky Cain and Thomas Oppen for the faint connections.
00:48:08Do not underestimate him.
00:48:10Scared now?
00:48:11Can you handle a real genius?
00:48:14You could still back out now, but you and your mother will be exiled forever.
00:48:18Sweetie, you don't have to do this for me.
00:48:22No.
00:48:23Let's begin.
00:48:25Let's begin.
00:48:32So what if you've proven the strong Goldbox conjecture?
00:48:36We are already on the last step of the third unsolvable microchip problem.
00:48:43That's impossible.
00:48:45The last problem encompasses a three-body operating model and two-dimensional foil technology, which proves that 3D can collapse into a 2D space.
00:48:54Yes, it fulfills a total paradigm shift as a quantitative leap.
00:48:57It's the ultimate weapon in quantum physics.
00:48:59You couldn't have solved it.
00:49:00That may be a shocker to you hobos, but it's nothing for us when the director of science and tech is on our side.
00:49:07I get to direct research funding wherever I want in this country.
00:49:11Ah, corruption at its finest.
00:49:13You're just jealous because only we, the elite, have access to the best tech, the best libraries.
00:49:18Only money can get you those things.
00:49:24Meanwhile, dirt poor people like you are a waste of space and should sink to the bottom of the ocean.
00:49:31And looking at this farm Barbie, I doubt she can even pay for her own nice lead pencil.
00:49:37Zosia Sanchez will never be able to afford any of this equipment.
00:49:42Nobody has been able to figure out this problem, not even with the invention of supercomputers.
00:49:47She don't got the brains.
00:49:51It's perfect that this is being live streamed around the world.
00:49:55We can prove that Ivy League elites are leagues above these swamp creatures.
00:50:01Bottom feeders should always stay at the bottom.
00:50:04And I'm about to prove to the universe that Humble Beginnings gave me exactly the skill to overthrow people like them.
00:50:18You think money is brain power, but my mom taught me what it takes to rise from the bottom to the top.
00:50:25We can do anything exponentially better.
00:50:29Well said.
00:50:30I came from Humble Beginnings too.
00:50:31We believe in you, Zosia, over all of their fancy lab equipment.
00:50:35That is just poor people's wishful thinking.
00:50:38Dreaming they can one day soar to the top.
00:50:41Hmm.
00:50:43Let's see Zosia Sanchez solve that third unsolvable problem.
00:50:48Without the help of any fancy technology.
00:50:54That's cheating.
00:50:55Oh, too bad.
00:51:02The duel has already begun.
00:51:04If you drop out now, then that's considered your loss.
00:51:09Those devices don't matter much to me at all.
00:51:12Well, you're lucky you were able to even solve the second problem.
00:51:15No woman has ever done better than that, and you certainly won't.
00:51:19And you're just a dirt-poor orphan.
00:51:22I mean, it took our group with the greatest resources years just to get to the last step of the problem.
00:51:27You won't be able to solve it in a millennium.
00:51:30Oh, yes.
00:51:31And especially without any computing power.
00:51:33She may have lucked out on the first two problems, but this is way beyond her.
00:51:38Poor people should never rustle the feathers of the wealthy and powerful.
00:51:42Their field of view is so tiny.
00:51:44And our powers are so great.
00:51:50Zosia Sanchez will never be able to solve this by hand.
00:51:54Worse yet, this is an interdisciplinary math problem involving quantum physics, string theory, and Einstein's field equations.
00:52:02A low-class hobo like her wouldn't know any of that.
00:52:05Who says I don't?
00:52:07Yes, we may be poor and we can't afford much, but that just made me more curious to learn everything.
00:52:17Margaret, you taught her quantum physics, too?
00:52:19No.
00:52:21No, I didn't.
00:52:23She must have learned it on her own.
00:52:24And that's the greatest weapon against these stuck-up crybabies.
00:52:46I know poor people are self-conscious about their low social status, but bluffing like this just brings you down even lower.
00:52:54Is this really the best you've got?
00:52:56I mean, Jensen, Margaret Harmon.
00:52:59Sure, they were good in their day, but now all they do is hang out with the likes of poor, broke, homeless girls.
00:53:07She doesn't even look pretty in her dirty rags.
00:53:10Well, let's face it.
00:53:11Girls can't really do much, whether it's physical labor or cerebral calisthenics.
00:53:16Well, this penniless girl is about to use a half-broken pencil to kick your ass in math.
00:53:22Let's race.
00:53:23You got the balls to challenge us, but I gotta tell you, it looks ugly on you.
00:53:29Competing against you would just lower my status.
00:53:32I could take you out easily myself.
00:53:35You?
00:53:36You're not good enough.
00:53:38I'm not good enough.
00:53:39I'm about to prove the Marsan's conjecture in my work, and it's the foundation of that last unsolvable math problem.
00:53:47How about we compete on that?
00:53:49Charles is the number one math student in all of Princeton.
00:53:53Your poor people math would just be baby chalk to him.
00:53:57Yeah, because penniless hobos don't have enough to even need counting.
00:54:01I think five fingers is enough.
00:54:05Marsan's conjecture is even harder than the previous unsolvable math problem.
00:54:11What if Xosia loses?
00:54:13Xosia is still an extreme high school student.
00:54:15I care less about the winning, but what if this cripples her intellectual curiosity?
00:54:21What if she never pursues math again?
00:54:23This should be nothing to you if you solve the previous unsolvable problem.
00:54:28Or are you really afraid to admit that bottom feeders can truly never climb to the top?
00:54:40Don't fall for it, Xosia.
00:54:42They are trying to provoke you into this math duel, okay?
00:54:45This is a special challenge within the math Olympiad with irreversible consequences.
00:54:49I have never seen someone lose a math duel and continue in step.
00:54:53The ridicule and the trauma are so severe, you might as well be exiled.
00:54:58The last girl I defeated in a math duel, we shaved her head in front of everyone.
00:55:03Every high school girl's worst nightmare, having her head shaved in front of everyone.
00:55:08And we live streamed it too.
00:55:10She was crying her eyes out when she ran out.
00:55:15Xosia, don't put yourself under so much pressure.
00:55:20You still have a long road ahead of you and so much more to accomplish.
00:55:24Mom, I'm confident in the work that you taught me.
00:55:28They insult our intellect for being poor, for being female.
00:55:31They lie and cheat and steal our work.
00:55:37I'm doing this for us, Mom.
00:55:39I'm doing this for all of the women in STEM.
00:55:43I'll beat these elitist menaces.
00:55:45Hmm.
00:55:45I am not backing down.
00:55:49You want to avenge your mother and take everything from me?
00:55:52I will have you shredded into unrecognizable pieces.
00:55:56Becky Cain, if I have to defeat your cronies first for you to return what you took from my mother...
00:56:00I will do so.
00:56:06We have the upper hand.
00:56:07When you fail, we can ensure that you never get into any college.
00:56:13Neither of you will work in STEM ever again.
00:56:16No funding.
00:56:17No scholarships.
00:56:18Nothing.
00:56:19Not even if you beg.
00:56:21And your sickly mom will die in the streets, dreams shattered.
00:56:28Just like how you poor people should end up.
00:56:30I will make you swallow those words.
00:56:33Just you watch.
00:56:34Enough.
00:56:36Start the math duel.
00:56:49What is that?
00:56:50Shameless.
00:56:51This is utterly shameless.
00:56:52Charles already has 80% of the math group completed.
00:56:55That's cheating.
00:56:56Dosha hasn't made any preparations ahead of time.
00:56:59That's unfair.
00:57:00Too bad.
00:57:04The math duel has already begun.
00:57:06If you want to give up now, though, that would be considered your loss.
00:57:09They're all cheating scumbags.
00:57:11We can only believe in Dosha now.
00:57:13Otherwise, they will claim we really can't do math.
00:57:15And that women are worthless and unintelligent.
00:57:18You and Dosha will be exiled from math forever.
00:57:21Dosha will never be able to fulfill her dreams.
00:57:24My child, your math skills have long surpassed mine.
00:57:29I can only support you from down below now.
00:57:31I spent 10 years working on this.
00:57:33Give me another hour, and I'll finish this proof.
00:57:37Wow.
00:57:38What a long time.
00:57:39You know nothing about what it means to be a top mathematician.
00:57:43Poor girls like you can only admire us from down below.
00:57:45I'm about to win the next Nobel Prize, just like the one your mother lost to us.
00:57:50Yes, one hour is definitely too much time.
00:57:57Keep pretending.
00:57:58You're as pathetic as your mother.
00:58:00You're both pig-cuddling boneheads with sappy woman emotions.
00:58:05Yeah, weaklings like you deserve to have your work stolen by us.
00:58:09Your name will go down in the history books as a loser.
00:58:13Then she can drop out of STEM and become a failure of a history teacher.
00:58:20What I mean to say is one hour is more than enough time for me to prove Mersenne's conjecture.
00:58:25One hour wouldn't even be enough time for a weak farm girl like you to crack open a textbook.
00:58:30I only need one minute.
00:58:31One minute?
00:58:35Now, Xosha is too naive.
00:58:37She's losing for sure.
00:58:39No way she can do this with no technology.
00:58:41No, she's just going to embarrass herself like her weak mother.
00:58:46Like I said, women belong in the kitchen.
00:58:50What you all don't realize is,
00:58:53Mersenne Prime is just a key that I use to prove strong gold box conjecture.
00:59:01We were too rash.
00:59:08We shouldn't let Xosha hinge so much on this duel.
00:59:10We should believe in Xosha.
00:59:11She can still prove everyone wrong.
00:59:13I came from a small town, too.
00:59:15You don't need to go to an Ivy League school.
00:59:17Women are just as smart as men.
00:59:19You're right.
00:59:20If you did it once,
00:59:22so can Xosha.
00:59:25Look at the screen!
00:59:27Woo-hoo!
00:59:31My mascot Archimedes, she's solving it!
00:59:42No.
00:59:43No, I have to work faster.
00:59:57No.
00:59:59She solved it.
01:00:00She beat me?
01:00:05A girl?
01:00:06Oh, I'm sorry.
01:00:07Have you not started yet?
01:00:09I spent 10 years trying to solve the Mersenne's conjecture.
01:00:14My life's work!
01:00:15Just because you're slow doesn't mean other people can't solve it.
01:00:18I would have done it faster,
01:00:19but I had to do it by hand.
01:00:21Oh, my God!
01:00:26Xosha Sanchez really proved her sense of conjecture!
01:00:33Ha-ha!
01:00:34She owned that elitist prick's ass!
01:00:37Down with Ivy League prep boys!
01:00:39I guess that tractor princess is smarter.
01:00:41No, no, no, it must be wrong.
01:00:43It must be wrong!
01:00:45No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:00:45How could she be Charles?
01:00:46He's actually a genius!
01:00:48Unlike me.
01:00:49Oh, give it up.
01:00:53You won't find any flaws in my math.
01:00:55No, I refuse to admit defeat!
01:00:57Okay, all right.
01:00:58Let me walk you through it.
01:00:59Since you can't seem to understand something so basic,
01:01:02I simply used my mother's Harmonian Mechanics reverse engineer Mersenne's conjecture.
01:01:13Wait, wait.
01:01:14Becky, shouldn't you know Harmonian Mechanics?
01:01:16Why doesn't your student know?
01:01:17Harmonian Mechanics was in my mother's thesis that Becky stole 10 years ago.
01:01:26Well, that just about proves it.
01:01:29Becky is guilty.
01:01:31That doesn't prove anything.
01:01:32It just proves that she beat one guy.
01:01:34I proved that small town girls can beat narcissistic piles of lard with half a pencil.
01:01:43Half a pencil.
01:01:48What a useless piece of trash.
01:01:51He belongs in a dumpster.
01:01:54Jeez.
01:01:55He was incorrect on one problem, and that's how you treat him?
01:01:59Careful.
01:01:59You might end up just like him when we expose you, Becky Cain.
01:02:03Well, Miss Cain, Zosia has defeated your student who was an actual genius.
01:02:08And now she gets to challenge you.
01:02:11I can't let this tractor princess, this farm Barbie, get the best of me.
01:02:23That was just one failure.
01:02:24You want to challenge me?
01:02:29Fine.
01:02:29I'll show you your place.
01:02:30This foolish sheep is about to be devoured by a real wolf.
01:02:34No, I'm going to put you where you belong behind bars.
01:02:43No, I'm going to put you where you belong behind bars.
01:02:48Zosia, you almost fainted.
01:02:57Be careful.
01:02:58No, I'm okay.
01:02:59No.
01:03:00Zosia is already spent.
01:03:02She solved the unsolvable math problem yesterday, and today she has proved strong Goldback's conjecture and Mersenne's conjecture.
01:03:08Both of these equations have been unsolved for centuries.
01:03:12Imagine the toll that it's taken on her.
01:03:14It would be unfair to continue this math duel.
01:03:17According to math duel rules, a mathematician can only take on one math duel in a given month.
01:03:22Never eat the system against my daughter again.
01:03:25So what?
01:03:26I am the director of science and tech.
01:03:29I am the rules.
01:03:30And I demand that the two of them face off right now.
01:03:34Shameless!
01:03:39Weren't you all just calling her the small town math genius?
01:03:43Make her prove it then by facing off against Becky, my little Nobel Prize winner.
01:03:50Only because she stole it from my mother.
01:03:53Oh, we're just giving the tractor princess a chance to prove herself.
01:03:56She should be proud that pig slop like her can stand on the world stage against one of the elite.
01:04:07I'm concerned for you, Zosia.
01:04:10Do you remember why I love math, Mom?
01:04:13It was how I met you.
01:04:14And Becky Cain destroyed your life.
01:04:16She stole your research and your legacy in the Math Hall of Fame.
01:04:20You don't belong in the Math Hall of Fame anymore.
01:04:23I do.
01:04:23Winning back everything is my thanks to you for adopting me when you could barely feed yourself.
01:04:32Math is universal.
01:04:33An equalizer between all classes of people.
01:04:36Take these cheating pricks off their high horses, Zosia.
01:04:40Zosia.
01:04:42Zosia.
01:04:43Zosia.
01:04:44Zosia.
01:04:45Zosia.
01:04:46Zosia.
01:04:47Zosia.
01:04:48Zosia.
01:04:49Zosia.
01:04:50Zosia.
01:04:51Zosia.
01:04:52Zosia.
01:04:52Zosia, I know you'll never give up.
01:04:55No matter what happens, I will always be with you.
01:04:59Let's duel.
01:05:01No, you talk big like a man.
01:05:04I tell you what.
01:05:05We're going to go easy on your puny little girl brain.
01:05:08How about that?
01:05:08The next part of the third unsolvable math problem?
01:05:12We race to find the next Marcin Prime.
01:05:14What?
01:05:18That's insanity.
01:05:19The largest Marcin Prime discovered is 2 to the 82,539,933 minus 1.
01:05:27That's 25 million digits.
01:05:29Every single mathematician in the world would love to come up with the next Marcin Prime.
01:05:34They would go down into the Mathematics Hall of Fame.
01:05:37Our competitors across the sea have used over 2 million supercomputers to try and do this,
01:05:42and they still haven't gotten it.
01:05:44How can Zosia with just one human brain?
01:05:47Why is finding the next Marcin Prime so important?
01:05:53In simple terms, Marcin Primes are fundamental to supercomputing and encryption at the highest order.
01:06:01Even if you don't care about supercomputing, daily tasks such as Internet function,
01:06:06listening to MP3s, media processing,
01:06:09are all reliant on FFT algorithms that are sped up by Marcin Primes.
01:06:14What she means, everyone, is that it makes our CPUs and our GPUs super fast.
01:06:20So if I'm going supersonic speed,
01:06:22finding the next Marcin Prime will allow me to reach hypersonic speeds?
01:06:26Precisely, young man.
01:06:28A breakthrough in Marcin Prime is basically a breakthrough for the entire chip industry.
01:06:31And almost everything is built on these microchips these days.
01:06:34Your phones, your computers, your cat's automatic feeder.
01:06:37Nobody can escape the influence that is chip technology in the modern age.
01:06:41Finding the next Marcin Prime is infinitely difficult.
01:06:46Can Zosia even do it?
01:06:48What they don't realize is,
01:06:49Oppen already gave me the answer.
01:06:53When I was working on Goldbox Conjecture three years ago,
01:06:57I was already halfway to finding the next Marcin Prime.
01:07:01And I've already given that answer to Becky.
01:07:04Zosia Sanchez will lose, for sure.
01:07:07Prepare to get kicked back to your swamp to pick up pig shit.
01:07:11But it's the only thing your poor girl hands are good for, anyway.
01:07:15No, no.
01:07:15What's going to happen is these elitist pricks,
01:07:18who cheated and bought your way to power,
01:07:21are going to fall from grace.
01:07:22You're going to be doomed to a life of being a total loser.
01:07:25Hmm.
01:07:26You wouldn't talk to me that way
01:07:28if you knew that I've already found the next Marcin Prime.
01:07:31It's right here.
01:07:33Is she cheating again?
01:07:35No!
01:07:35Just one?
01:07:42Didn't you hear those idiots?
01:07:46Over two million supercomputers can't find one.
01:07:49And you've got nothing.
01:07:52You should actually be grateful that you get to witness me making history.
01:07:56You crave glory so much,
01:08:00you cheat, lie, steal, probably murder.
01:08:03I may be poor,
01:08:04but I will ensure that glory is the one thing that you never get.
01:08:09Even if you came into my farm to pick up pigeon fodder.
01:08:11Hmm.
01:08:19Meet my Marcin Prime.
01:08:21Meet my Marcin Prime.
01:08:33She's really found the next Marcin Prime?
01:08:36A number that's over 25 million digits?
01:08:39Xosha's a goner this time.
01:08:40All you ever do is cheat.
01:08:42How can you even call yourself an honorable researcher?
01:08:44Okay, that sounds like a you problem.
01:08:47If Xosha's really a math genius like you say she is,
01:08:49then she would already have one in her back pocket.
01:08:52Oh, yeah, that's how geniuses operate.
01:08:54But apparently,
01:08:56Xosha Sanchez isn't a real genius.
01:08:58She doesn't have time to calculate
01:09:00what two million computers couldn't calculate
01:09:02to find the next Marcin Prime?
01:09:03Uh, TikTok.
01:09:04Oh, time's up, sweetie.
01:09:07Admit defeat and, uh,
01:09:09slap yourself a hundred times as an apology.
01:09:12Maybe then I'll let you kiss my Nobel Prize.
01:09:16You mean my Nobel Prize.
01:09:19You mean my Nobel Prize?
01:09:23May I borrow your iPod?
01:09:25This is the cheapest model from five years ago, though.
01:09:27It's like one gigahertz tops.
01:09:29Might as well be a potato.
01:09:30More than enough for me.
01:09:32She just won't give up.
01:09:34All right.
01:09:35I'll let that brat play before we eat her alive.
01:09:38Give me the next Marcin Prime on the count of three,
01:09:41and I'll spare you and your mother.
01:09:44Three.
01:09:45What, Bakary?
01:09:46Three seconds.
01:09:46She has no chance.
01:09:47Two.
01:09:48She's working like life.
01:09:49Unbelievable.
01:09:50Can she really do it?
01:09:55One.
01:09:56Drag her off the stage.
01:09:58Done.
01:10:05Done.
01:10:05And the next one at $27 million and $32 million digits.
01:10:22You're the pride of my life, Socha.
01:10:24No, she is the pride of the entire nation.
01:10:27No, no, no, no, wait.
01:10:32I had to use offense proof to get that far.
01:10:33How could she find two Marcin Primes?
01:10:36What?
01:10:37In three seconds?
01:10:38That took me three years.
01:10:40Oh, I know what it is.
01:10:41She must just be a blind guess.
01:10:43She can just toss out a bunch of digits and then make it look like something.
01:10:46She, she, she's cheating.
01:10:48You're cheating.
01:10:49All you farmhouse poor people do is cheat.
01:10:53That's all you do because you're losers in real life.
01:10:55You're just projecting because you can't stand losing.
01:10:59Have you guys forgotten what I've accomplished so far?
01:11:02You mean unsolvable math problem number two?
01:11:04Yes, because math builds on top of one another.
01:11:07That's why I was able to calculate the next Marcin Prime in the nick of time.
01:11:11No, I cannot lose to this penniless pig slop feeder.
01:11:16You are the director of science and tech.
01:11:18You are the top dog.
01:11:20I didn't sleep with you for nothing.
01:11:22We can't let her expose us like this.
01:11:25Bringing out the big guns?
01:11:27I'll beat them too.
01:11:30Ten years ago, Thomas Oppen and Becky Cain stole my mother's research.
01:11:36I will avenge her and I will take back what belongs to her.
01:11:39Those morons that you just defeated, they are nothing compared to me.
01:11:44Do you even realize who you're talking to, Zosia Sanchez?
01:11:47He hails from a long line of nuclear physicists, okay?
01:11:50You mean mad scientists who create weapons of mass destruction to ruin humanity?
01:11:54Yeah, I think the world can live without you.
01:11:57I am the director of science and tech.
01:12:01I hold the highest position in math and physics, okay?
01:12:05I am leagues above you.
01:12:07You're so poor, you eat what the pigs eat.
01:12:13Yeah, yeah, yeah, teenage trailer trash just thinks they're so important, but they know everything.
01:12:20Okay, all right.
01:12:22I don't need any of you to mansplain or talk down me because higher IQ beats higher status.
01:12:28Higher status is more experience.
01:12:30You mean more experience at cheating.
01:12:33You know what?
01:12:35Why don't we solve four-color theorem?
01:12:40Let's race.
01:12:41You think four-color theorem is just that easy?
01:12:46At my current level, it would take me a year to complete, and that is still faster than anyone else on Earth.
01:12:53I'll need one hour.
01:12:54You are just a rodeo clown drunk on your own moonshine.
01:12:57It would take you that long just to write down the equation.
01:13:01Oh, oh, oh, let me guess.
01:13:03Let me guess.
01:13:03You're just going to use all the computing power in this room to calculate the prime for you.
01:13:08And we see right through your screen.
01:13:09Yeah, yeah, it must be that that iPad the host gave her.
01:13:11She's the real cheater.
01:13:13That must be why she beat me.
01:13:14Go ahead and check the iPad.
01:13:21My gosh, this is barely one gigabyte of RAM.
01:13:24You're right.
01:13:25This thing is slower than a 2010 flip phone.
01:13:28Like I said, might as well be a potato.
01:13:31See, I don't need your double standards and hypocrisy.
01:13:34They look ugly on my small-town charm.
01:13:37You still won't win.
01:13:39It would take at least 9,000 times more computing power,
01:13:42and it would take another whole year.
01:13:45But what if I used the three-body operating model and 2D foil technology?
01:13:56But what if I used the three-body operating model and 2D foil technology?
01:14:04What?
01:14:05That's math blasphemy.
01:14:08No, it's not.
01:14:08If I compress space modeling into 2D, I don't mean 9,000 times computing power.
01:14:14That iPad is enough.
01:14:17That's all abstract math.
01:14:18Nobody has ever made that concrete yet.
01:14:20That wouldn't be the breakthrough of the century.
01:14:22It would be the breakthrough of the millennium.
01:14:25Compressing to 2D?
01:14:27That is crazy talk.
01:14:29Current technology only allows to compress up to 10 times.
01:14:33What are you saying?
01:14:34You have some sort of magical, mystical power now that created some new tech?
01:14:39I do.
01:14:43I do.
01:14:45You forget that I advanced tech by a century just minutes ago.
01:15:00Accelerate!
01:15:01Accelerate!
01:15:02Accelerate!
01:15:02Accelerate!
01:15:03Accelerate!
01:15:04Accelerate!
01:15:05Oh, Jesus Christ, no!
01:15:07We don't have enough computing power!
01:15:09We told you!
01:15:11You don't even have the computing power to defeat me!
01:15:17Please?
01:15:18I need your help.
01:15:19You get covering in the system, you get banned
01:15:34You need skills to own
01:15:49The next millennium is here
01:16:19My photon-level microchip
01:16:31It may be tiny, but its power is immense
01:16:34Enough to power this entire city on its own
01:16:43Power level over 9,000
01:16:46I did it wrong
01:16:49I did it
01:16:51You did it, my child
01:16:53You did it when no one else could
01:16:56We have hypersonic microchips
01:16:59No other country is even close
01:17:00My potato is gone
01:17:02Hyperspeed
01:17:04The whole country wanted to see you win, Zosia
01:17:06This, this right here
01:17:09This is the American dream
01:17:11We're all equal
01:17:12No, no, no
01:17:18She's really a genius
01:17:20She solved all three unsolvable microchip math problems
01:17:23I have to admit, Zosia Sanchez, you are good
01:17:27Now I might just have to hire you to come work for me
01:17:31Is that you both admitting defeat?
01:17:34He has been rigging the system against Zosia the entire time
01:17:37You can't be serious
01:17:38You two work together to steal Zosia's mother's research
01:17:42Becky Cain is nowhere near the genius that you are
01:17:45Come to my side
01:17:46And I can give you all the riches and glory in the world
01:17:49How dare you betray me?
01:17:54I've been with you for ten years
01:17:56I was only using you to steal research for me
01:18:01You are nothing compared to Zosia Sanchez
01:18:05You are nothing but trash to me now
01:18:09How does downfall feel, Becky Cain?
01:18:16Forget Becky, Miss Sanchez
01:18:18Let's discuss your future with me
01:18:20Now you don't want to be associated with that dirt poor mother
01:18:23She has me
01:18:24Now you don't want to be associated with that dirt poor mother
01:18:31She has nothing left to offer you
01:18:33But I, I can give you access to the top research facilities and unlimited money
01:18:38I wouldn't blame you if you left me, Zosia
01:18:41I'm just a destitute janitor now
01:18:44Mom, I would never do that
01:18:48Do you know why I go to public high school
01:18:51And why I manipulate my test scores to only be 73%?
01:18:54I'm not interested in playing guessing games with you right now
01:18:57Because my mom adopted me
01:18:59She saved me from the streets as an orphan
01:19:01She gave me a whole new life
01:19:03I would give up anything for her to fulfill her dreams
01:19:06The ones that Becky Cain stole
01:19:08I would never abandon her
01:19:11I never knew you'd manipulated your test scores for me
01:19:15And I would do it all over again, Mom
01:19:18Zosia
01:19:20You know, I am so glad that Zosia Sanchez is not a traitor like that Becky Cain
01:19:26Zosia is the better woman
01:19:28It must be that small town, Johnny
01:19:32Now it's time to strip Becky Cain of her honors and her position
01:19:35No, no, you can't
01:19:38Just because you beat me, that doesn't mean that I stole anything
01:19:43Yeah? Where's your evidence?
01:19:45See?
01:19:47You got nothing on me
01:19:49But I do
01:19:50Look, everyone
01:19:53Margaret Harman is trying to fabricate evidence now
01:19:56Did you not realize
01:19:58That there were security cameras in the office
01:20:00Where you stole my research?
01:20:02No
01:20:02No, I already deleted the footage
01:20:04Those security cameras were backed up to the cloud
01:20:08If she didn't realize that
01:20:10How could she even call herself a prodigy in tech?
01:20:13Math genius
01:20:14Math genius is worse than a preschooler
01:20:16My mom didn't want to expose you
01:20:20Because she wanted to give you a second chance
01:20:21To right your wrongs
01:20:24This is your last chance, Becky Cain
01:20:28I
01:20:31I didn't do anything wrong
01:20:36Anybody would have done it
01:20:38All of the founding fathers of Silicon Valley
01:20:40They've done it
01:20:41You are despicable
01:20:43You do not deserve to be listed in the math hall of fame
01:20:46No
01:20:47Am I going to lose everything?
01:20:51Professor
01:20:52I'm so sorry
01:20:54Oh, you don't have to do this
01:20:58Please don't expose me
01:20:59You don't have to do this
01:21:00I'll do anything
01:21:01Please forgive me
01:21:02Forgiveness
01:21:02I promise to make you proud, Professor
01:21:05You should be honored
01:21:10That I'm using your work to climb to the top
01:21:12I'm inheriting your math legacy, Professor
01:21:15I forgave you a long time ago
01:21:19You did?
01:21:22Then I get to keep everything
01:21:24You should never have tried to frame Zosia
01:21:27Shame on that woman
01:21:29Stealing someone else's research is the most despicable crime in academia
01:21:33Let's exile her
01:21:36No
01:21:37You can't do that to me
01:21:39I'm a Nobel Prize winner
01:21:40I'm famous, dammit
01:21:42No
01:21:42Not anymore, Becky Cain
01:21:46Not anymore, Becky Cain
01:21:52You don't belong in the math hall of fame anymore
01:22:00I do
01:22:01You have officially been removed from the hall of fame
01:22:08My portrait
01:22:09My beautiful portrait
01:22:11You'll pay for this
01:22:13Get over here and help
01:22:19Don't you want her invention too?
01:22:21I invented this
01:22:23She's trying to steal Zosia's work like she did mine
01:22:27Your invention will be ours
01:22:31See, this is why women are always having their inventions stolen
01:22:35You're just biologically weaker
01:22:37We are not
01:22:38Come on, take down these oppressors
01:22:41I can't believe we lost to a couple of pig farmers
01:22:45No, I'm the best math genius in the world
01:22:47I'm the Nobel Prize winner
01:22:48I'm a winner
01:22:49It doesn't belong to you
01:22:52I would like to proudly announce
01:23:09That the winner of this year's math olympiad is
01:23:12That the winner of this year's math olympiad is
01:23:18Zosia, Zosia, Zosia, Zosia, Zosia, Zosia, Zosia, Zosia, Zosia
01:23:26Zosia Sanchez
01:23:27Zosia has solved all three unsolvable math models
01:23:39Not only that
01:23:41She has advanced microchip technology by at least a century
01:23:45With her brilliant device
01:23:46We did it, mom
01:23:55We won the prize money
01:23:57And now we can continue your research
01:23:59And your surgery
01:24:01Oh, Zosia, I don't care about these prizes
01:24:04Raising you was my greatest achievement
01:24:08Ha ha, well, well
01:24:35Zosia, Zosia, Zosia, Zosia!
01:24:37Oh, here, let me
01:24:39Hello
01:24:42Congratulations, you two
01:24:45You will be going to D.C. to compete internationally this time
01:24:49Now, you do realize that our foreign competitors
01:24:52Are going to be a little more difficult
01:24:53Than anything you've had to handle so far
01:24:55I'll make all of you proud
01:24:56Oh, you will always be my girl genius
01:25:00Thanks for up, baby
01:25:02How does that really – I'll write it on my journey
01:25:07Oh, Let me see you
01:25:08We Mall of Content
01:25:10Thank you
01:25:10Now, let me see you
01:25:17Hopefully we'll find out
01:25:18That's a beautiful thing
01:25:20We'll be out and we'll be out
01:25:22A great deal
01:25:23You will be away
01:25:24Hope you can leave
