00:03:30Brenda, who the hell is this guy?
00:03:32This is William Dorsey, our boss's son.
00:03:36He just completed his MBA at Stanford.
00:03:39Mr. Dorsey will be standing in as CEO while his father deals with some medical issues.
00:03:45Am I looking at two employees from Dorsey Tech or a couple of eight-year-olds out at recess?
00:03:49I honestly can't tell.
00:03:50Sir, I can explain.
00:03:51Zip it, Johnny.
00:03:52You can't manage yourself, let alone your entire team.
00:03:55So, get out of my face.
00:03:56You're fired.
00:03:59You're fired.
00:04:01Get out.
00:04:03I just did that.
00:04:05You know what they say about new management?
00:04:08There's gonna be some layoffs.
00:04:10Time to separate the wheat from the chap.
00:04:13Ha, ha, ha.
00:04:18Okay, listen up.
00:04:20Listen up.
00:04:20I'm gonna need 150% every single day.
00:04:24None of this half-assed bullshit anymore.
00:04:26All right?
00:04:29Who does he think he is?
00:04:31Elon Musk?
00:04:34What the hell is this crap?
00:04:37Okay, I need zero distractions in this office.
00:04:40Leave your shit at home and maybe you'll get something done for once.
00:04:43No!
00:04:45That was limited edition.
00:04:50Oh, boo-hoo.
00:04:52It's not my fault you were decorating your desk with that junk instead of working.
00:04:55You're fired!
00:04:57Excuse me?
00:04:59Uh, Fernanda, see how much that thing costs and buy her a new one?
00:05:03Dorsey Tech might lack competent workers, but one thing it doesn't lack is money.
00:05:07Right?
00:05:07Yes, sir.
00:05:13And what do we have here?
00:05:15Sleeping on the job?
00:05:17Good morning, my sweet prince.
00:05:20Who the hell are you?
00:05:22Who am I?
00:05:23Doesn't matter.
00:05:23Uh, you're fired.
00:05:24Me, you're firing me?
00:05:30Yeah.
00:05:30Well, you're firing me.
00:05:31Did I stutter?
00:05:32No.
00:05:34That's not, uh...
00:05:35That's, uh, that's not what I meant.
00:05:38Fernanda, what does he do?
00:05:40Um, he works in network maintenance.
00:05:42What's his salary?
00:05:43Just about 500k a year.
00:05:45Oh, 500k a year?
00:05:48All that for a simple maintenance job?
00:05:50What are you doing, taking us for a ride?
00:05:52No, uh, look, I was...
00:05:54I was working all night.
00:05:56Can't I just take a rest?
00:05:58You trying to clock at a time and a half for overtime?
00:06:00I mean, I've heard of a quiet quitting, but this is time theft.
00:06:05Are you HR folks as dumb as these techies, or is this some kind of larger-scale scam?
00:06:10Eric and I might be dating, but I can't afford to get dragged into this.
00:06:14I need to break up with this loser.
00:06:16Um, he must have pulled some strings to get a higher salary.
00:06:20Other workers in the same department don't make nearly as much as him.
00:06:25Fernanda.
00:06:29Eric Martin.
00:06:31You are so fucking fired.
00:06:33Get your shit and get out of my building.
00:06:34All right, then.
00:06:44Eric.
00:06:45Sir, Eric was the one who stopped the cyber attack.
00:06:47You want to follow him out?
00:06:49Hey, look.
00:06:52Dorsey Tech is still one of the top tech companies in Silicon Valley.
00:06:55Don't lose your jobs for me.
00:06:56Okay.
00:06:56Okay.
00:07:09Yeah.
00:07:11Boss's orders.
00:07:12I won't hold it against you.
00:07:15It's also our one-year anniversary, right?
00:07:20See you in the lobby.
00:07:21What was that about?
00:07:30Mr. Dorsey?
00:07:31Yeah?
00:07:32Are you sure it's a good idea to fire so many employees on your first day as acting CEO?
00:07:38It's better to be feared than loved.
00:07:41I mean, what?
00:07:42You want me to show some mercy to your crook boyfriend?
00:07:45Is that it?
00:07:47No.
00:07:47You know, you deserve so much better, right?
00:07:52I mean, what would you prefer?
00:07:53An unemployed loser or a red CEO?
00:08:05Just a sec.
00:08:07Busy guy.
00:08:08Oh.
00:08:09What's up, Dad?
00:08:11My heart's acting up again.
00:08:13You'll have to take over the company for now.
00:08:15Also, there's an important matter you need to know about.
00:08:20Yeah, um, what's the important matter?
00:08:22We have an employee.
00:08:24Eric.
00:08:25Whatever you do, make sure to be good to him.
00:08:28Eric?
00:08:31Eric Martin.
00:08:35Isn't that the guy I just laid off?
00:08:37William, you there?
00:08:40Yep.
00:08:41Uh, just a second.
00:08:42Do we have any other employee unit, Eric?
00:08:49This is the employee list.
00:08:51Yep.
00:08:52I was trying to get him to work for us for years and finally poached.
00:08:55He's in charge of our next-gen AI development.
00:08:59The company's future is in his hands.
00:09:01Uh, yes.
00:09:02Eric Martin, AI development.
00:09:03I see him.
00:09:05Eric Martin, AI development.
00:09:06One of the top tech visionaries in Silicon Valley.
00:09:10This the guy?
00:09:12Yeah, that's him.
00:09:13Eric Martin.
00:09:14There's another employee with a similar name who's always slacking on the job.
00:09:18Fire him when you get the chance.
00:09:20Don't worry, Dad.
00:09:21I already did.
00:09:22Huh.
00:09:23Guess that sucker I fired wasn't the big-shot tech genius after all.
00:09:26Attaboy.
00:09:27Keep it up.
00:09:28Once I'm feeling better, I'll come around and see how things are going.
00:09:31Yeah, just focus on getting better, Dad.
00:09:33I got this.
00:09:33You know, I told you that my father wouldn't pay $500,000 to some loser.
00:09:43So who's it gonna be?
00:09:46I'm a man.
00:09:51What the fuck do you want?
00:09:52Uh, Mr. Dorsey, um, uh, you...
00:09:55Spit it out, man.
00:09:57What's up?
00:09:58The company's over just grass.
00:09:59You, talk to me.
00:10:03It's bad, sir.
00:10:04The customer complaints are getting out of control.
00:10:06What should we do, sir?
00:10:07Eric saved us during the last cyber attack.
00:10:09So if we can just get him here, then boom.
00:10:12Problem solved.
00:10:13Fernanda, you got his number, right?
00:10:14Why don't you give him a call?
00:10:15Eric, what a dick.
00:10:24Forgets his tablet.
00:10:28Amelioration algorithm?
00:10:29Wait.
00:10:31Is this the code that fixes the server loophole?
00:10:35Oh, damn.
00:10:37This is good.
00:10:38Hello?
00:10:42Eric, the company's server crashed.
00:10:44Get over here and help us.
00:10:46Mr. Dorsey said that if you fix it, you'll be generously rewarded.
00:10:49On my way.
00:10:52With Eric's codes, I can plug the loophole.
00:10:55Everyone will think I'm a hero.
00:11:01So?
00:11:02He said he's got it.
00:11:03Thank God.
00:11:08Well, you still haven't answered some questions.
00:11:13Hammer me?
00:11:16Eric and I weren't a thing.
00:11:18I was just leaning him on.
00:11:20And she's you, of course.
00:11:22Smith.
00:11:23Six, five.
00:11:30God, Fernanda was supposed to be off a half hour ago.
00:11:32Where is she?
00:11:35Screw it.
00:11:36I'm going up.
00:11:46You fucking asshole!
00:11:50You fucking asshole!
00:11:53Woo!
00:11:54Stop it!
00:11:55You're acting like a child.
00:11:57As if you never saw this coming.
00:12:00What are you doing kissing this douchebag?
00:12:02Watch your mouth!
00:12:03I can do whatever I want
00:12:05with whoever I want.
00:12:08You bastard.
00:12:10Jesus!
00:12:22Eric.
00:12:23You and me
00:12:24are over.
00:12:27Fernanda.
00:12:30Are you serious?
00:12:32That pathetic piece of crap
00:12:34had the nerve to mess up your shirt.
00:12:36Why are you doing this?
00:12:38Eric, I told you we're done!
00:12:39Why would I waste my time
00:12:41with an unemployed loser like you?
00:12:43Keep it.
00:12:59At least you'll have something to jerk off to.
00:13:02Oh, damn.
00:13:04Yeah, so
00:13:06I'm rich.
00:13:08I'm handsome.
00:13:09And you
00:13:10you're an unemployed loser.
00:13:13Just go home and beat your meat, man.
00:13:17Fernanda, you're the reason
00:13:18I even stayed at Dorsac.
00:13:20Shut up!
00:13:21Who knows what kind of lives
00:13:23you've told to get the job anyway?
00:13:25We're done.
00:13:26You're gonna pay for this.
00:13:32Hold it.
00:13:34You're in trouble now, bitch.
00:13:46And you are?
00:13:48It's an honor to meet you, Mr. Dorsey.
00:13:51I'm here to report
00:13:52that under my guidance
00:13:53our systems are back up
00:13:54and running normally.
00:13:55You're Eric Martin!
00:13:57I am.
00:13:59You can see why my father
00:14:00spoke so highly of you.
00:14:02Idiots,
00:14:02do they really not know
00:14:03I'm taking credit
00:14:04for that loser Eric's work?
00:14:06Whatever.
00:14:06As long as the boss's son likes me,
00:14:09I can keep climbing the ladder.
00:14:11Mr. Dorsey,
00:14:12I know the asshole
00:14:14who tried to sabotage our company.
00:14:17Right after you were fired,
00:14:19the system crashed.
00:14:21There's reason to believe
00:14:22that this was your attempt
00:14:23at revenge.
00:14:25boss,
00:14:35good news.
00:14:37Eric Martin,
00:14:38that tech whiz you had
00:14:39on your radar,
00:14:39he just left Dorsey Tech.
00:14:41He did?
00:14:42Mm-hmm,
00:14:43it happened ten minutes ago.
00:14:44He was fired by the CEO's son,
00:14:46William.
00:14:47Ha!
00:14:48Ah,
00:14:48that's hilarious.
00:14:50I want to see the look
00:14:51on that old hag
00:14:52Asher Dorsey's face
00:14:53when he realizes
00:14:54that the genius he recruited
00:14:56just got sacked
00:14:56by his idiot son.
00:14:58But boss,
00:14:59Hendrix Tech,
00:15:00is just a mid-level startup.
00:15:02Will someone as talented
00:15:02as I'm really want to
00:15:03join us?
00:15:04We have to get him
00:15:05on our side
00:15:06by any means necessary.
00:15:10You have no idea
00:15:11how groundbreaking
00:15:12his work in AI modeling is.
00:15:14Get the car ready.
00:15:18I'm going to the Dorsey office,
00:15:20and Eric
00:15:21is mine.
00:15:28Revenge.
00:15:29What the hell
00:15:30are you talking about?
00:15:31Don't play dumb.
00:15:33The systems crashed
00:15:34right after you got fired.
00:15:36This couldn't have been
00:15:37a coincidence.
00:15:38Yet,
00:15:39you still deny it.
00:15:40Bullshit.
00:15:41You guys have always
00:15:42looked down at me
00:15:43as some nobody
00:15:43maintenance worker.
00:15:45Now you're going to blame me
00:15:46when the server gets hacked.
00:15:49None of you idiots
00:15:49have any shred
00:15:51of common sense.
00:15:52If you had a common sense,
00:15:53you'd have a job.
00:15:54I'm not going to argue
00:15:55with you in front
00:15:56of Mr. Dorsey.
00:15:59What the hell
00:16:00are you trying to do?
00:16:01You either tell them
00:16:01the truth
00:16:02or they're going to
00:16:02take you to the police station.
00:16:04Eric,
00:16:04I had no idea
00:16:06you were such
00:16:06a vengeful person.
00:16:08What other tricks
00:16:09do you have
00:16:09of your sleeve?
00:16:10Better come clean now
00:16:12or you're going to jail.
00:16:14All right.
00:16:17What are you waiting for?
00:16:20Arrest me.
00:16:21Let's see if you have
00:16:22any real evidence.
00:16:28What are you doing, man?
00:16:29We don't got handcuffs.
00:16:31Really?
00:16:32Without a shred
00:16:33of remorse?
00:16:34Don't you know
00:16:35that Mr. Dorsey's
00:16:36going to make your life
00:16:37a living hell?
00:16:38Mr. Dorsey,
00:16:39the way I see it,
00:16:41you should teach
00:16:41this asshole a lesson.
00:16:43Yeah, William.
00:16:44A scumbag like him
00:16:45should never get away
00:16:46with this.
00:16:48No.
00:16:50From this day on,
00:16:52Eric Martin
00:16:53is now blacklisted
00:16:54from Dorsey Tech
00:16:55and all of its
00:16:57industry partners.
00:16:57You know what this means,
00:17:02you're now kicked out
00:17:04of Silicon Valley, bro.
00:17:08I just have one question.
00:17:11Does Asher,
00:17:13the CEO,
00:17:14know that I've been fired?
00:17:16Why should the CEO
00:17:17be bothered with firing
00:17:19a loser like you?
00:17:20You thought you were
00:17:21real hot shit,
00:17:23didn't you?
00:17:24Boys,
00:17:25take him to the police.
00:17:27Yes, sir.
00:17:28Stop right there.
00:17:28There'll be no need
00:17:40to take him away.
00:17:41He's joining Hendrix Tech.
00:17:48He's joining Hendrix Tech.
00:17:50I recognize you.
00:17:52You're Evelyn Hendrix,
00:17:54CEO of Hendrix Tech.
00:17:57Evelyn?
00:17:58What are you doing here?
00:18:00I'm here for you,
00:18:01of course.
00:18:02I haven't seen you
00:18:03since college.
00:18:05What?
00:18:06A dummy like you
00:18:07went to college with her?
00:18:08So is this how
00:18:09Dorsey Tech treats
00:18:10its former employees?
00:18:11I would have expected
00:18:12better from you.
00:18:15Miss Hendrix,
00:18:16I...
00:18:16These are high-level
00:18:16conversations between
00:18:17company CEOs.
00:18:19Someone of your rank
00:18:20should know when
00:18:21to shut her mouth.
00:18:22Miss Hendrix,
00:18:24this prick,
00:18:25Eric,
00:18:26has severely...
00:18:27I'm sorry,
00:18:28who are you?
00:18:29I...
00:18:29I'm, uh...
00:18:31Yeah, I don't really
00:18:32have time to listen
00:18:32to your jabbering.
00:18:33Oh my God.
00:18:34Okay, look,
00:18:35right after I fired
00:18:36this imbecile,
00:18:37our company's server
00:18:37crashed.
00:18:38He clearly hacked
00:18:39into our system.
00:18:40His actions have had
00:18:41serious consequences
00:18:42for our company.
00:18:43So yeah, man,
00:18:44I don't understand
00:18:45why you're challenging
00:18:46me for exposing
00:18:47a cyber criminal.
00:18:48did you really not ask
00:18:51your father
00:18:52about who Eric is?
00:18:56Of course I asked
00:18:57my father.
00:18:59He said that Eric's
00:18:59some kind of slacker
00:19:00who cheated his way
00:19:01into the company.
00:19:05Slacker?
00:19:06Is that really
00:19:08what Asher said?
00:19:09Word for word.
00:19:11He said,
00:19:12fire this loser
00:19:13as soon as you
00:19:14get the chance.
00:19:17Asher met with me
00:19:19multiple times
00:19:20and begged for me
00:19:21to come join
00:19:22Dorsey Tech,
00:19:23it doesn't make sense
00:19:24that he would
00:19:25change his mind
00:19:25like this.
00:19:26Don't take me
00:19:26a break, Eric.
00:19:28The boss wouldn't
00:19:28waste his precious
00:19:29time recruiting
00:19:30someone like you.
00:19:33Fine.
00:19:34If that's how
00:19:34it's going to be,
00:19:35then there's nothing
00:19:36left to say to you
00:19:37or Dorsey Tech.
00:19:42Eric,
00:19:43how would you feel
00:19:44about coming over
00:19:44to Hendrix Tech?
00:19:47Oh.
00:19:48Uh.
00:19:50You'll be a
00:19:50principal shareholder
00:19:51and you'll also
00:19:52have a salary
00:19:53of $4 million
00:19:54per year.
00:19:54I want to make
00:19:55you our lead
00:19:56software engineer.
00:20:08I'm sorry,
00:20:09a principal shareholder?
00:20:11$4 million salary?
00:20:13Hey, Sandra,
00:20:14you're giving him
00:20:15a lot.
00:20:15I mean,
00:20:16you're out
00:20:16of your damn mind.
00:20:17This woman's
00:20:18got a screw loose.
00:20:19You know,
00:20:19he was just
00:20:20a maintenance worker
00:20:20at Dorsey Tech,
00:20:21right?
00:20:22And now you want
00:20:22to make him
00:20:23a millionaire?
00:20:27Uh, Evelyn,
00:20:28I know you're
00:20:29trying to help,
00:20:30but, like,
00:20:31I don't want
00:20:31the money.
00:20:32Then,
00:20:33would this
00:20:34sweeten the beer?
00:20:37Are you kidding me?
00:20:39This is insane!
00:20:40If you join
00:20:41Hendrix Tech,
00:20:42you can have
00:20:43anything you want.
00:20:46Including me.
00:20:49Okay,
00:20:51uh, look,
00:20:51Miss Hendrix,
00:20:52you're a self-made
00:20:53woman,
00:20:53which I respect.
00:20:55So,
00:20:55for your own good,
00:20:56let me remind you
00:20:56that this loser
00:20:57that you've set
00:20:58your mind on
00:20:59is some dick
00:21:00who loves to slack
00:21:01on the job.
00:21:02My father said
00:21:02it himself.
00:21:04Okay.
00:21:06All right.
00:21:06What's all that?
00:21:20See,
00:21:21that
00:21:21would be
00:21:22all the things
00:21:23your father gave me.
00:21:25The car,
00:21:26the money,
00:21:27my relationship.
00:21:29See,
00:21:29they're all yours now.
00:21:30You can tell Asher
00:21:32that from this
00:21:33day forward,
00:21:34I,
00:21:35Eric Martin,
00:21:36will formally be
00:21:37severing my ties
00:21:38with Dorsey Tech.
00:21:39Quit it with the
00:21:40self-pity.
00:21:42You didn't deserve
00:21:43those things
00:21:43to begin with.
00:21:44It's right
00:21:45that you returned them.
00:21:47You guys are shameless.
00:21:49You don't even see
00:21:50your employees
00:21:51as human beings.
00:21:54Miss Hendrix,
00:21:55I know that you
00:21:56and Dorsey Tech
00:21:57are competitors.
00:21:58Yes,
00:21:59but to be honest,
00:22:00right now,
00:22:01we're actually struggling
00:22:01to compete with them.
00:22:04Don't worry.
00:22:06I can help
00:22:07change that.
00:22:10I can help
00:22:11change that.
00:22:13Look at yourself,
00:22:13Eric.
00:22:14Offering to work
00:22:15for a smaller company.
00:22:17What a joke.
00:22:20I'm sorry,
00:22:21a trader like you
00:22:22doesn't have the right
00:22:23to judge others.
00:22:24How dare you?
00:22:25The breach
00:22:26of the company
00:22:27server has caused
00:22:28major damage.
00:22:29As the perpetrator
00:22:30of this attack,
00:22:31I demand you
00:22:32to issue an apology
00:22:33to Dorsey Tech
00:22:33and all of its customers.
00:22:36And if you don't,
00:22:37I'll have to press charges.
00:22:39Okay.
00:22:40Good luck with that.
00:22:42What are you
00:22:43going to do about it?
00:22:44You have no choice
00:22:45but to issue that apology.
00:22:47Stop threatening
00:22:48my employee.
00:22:49If you insist
00:22:50on escalating this,
00:22:51then send a demand letter
00:22:52to Hendrix Tech
00:22:53and we'll see it
00:22:54as a declaration of war.
00:22:56Well, if war is what you want,
00:22:59that's what you'll get.
00:23:02You know what?
00:23:06You know what?
00:23:14Let's go.
00:23:15I'd be sick
00:23:16if I stay another second
00:23:17in this shithole.
00:23:18Mr. Dorsey,
00:23:28don't waste time
00:23:29with those people.
00:23:30Eric,
00:23:31you've done well.
00:23:33I'm going to sign you
00:23:34the role of lead engineer.
00:23:38That's amazing, sir.
00:23:40What about me, darling?
00:23:44Oh, don't worry, my dear.
00:23:46I'll make sure
00:23:46that you're satisfied.
00:23:49Ew, gross.
00:23:51I won't let you down.
00:23:53Good.
00:23:54Tell me,
00:23:54how did you resolve
00:23:55the system's crash?
00:23:57Oh.
00:23:57Uh.
00:23:58Fuck!
00:23:59The tablet's in the office.
00:24:00What should I say?
00:24:01I used a one-of-a-kind code
00:24:04that I developed myself
00:24:06to get the server
00:24:06back up and running.
00:24:08I can explain it to you
00:24:09in detail later.
00:24:11Spoken like a true visionary.
00:24:13Man's even got his own code.
00:24:15You know what?
00:24:15Don't even bother
00:24:16showing it to me.
00:24:17I'm sure it's exquisite.
00:24:19Keep working your magic, buddy.
00:24:21With you on my team,
00:24:22I can relax.
00:24:24Thank you, sir.
00:24:25Mm-hmm.
00:24:26Let's go.
00:24:27Say hello
00:24:33to Dorsey Tech's
00:24:34new lead engineer.
00:24:36Let's see if anyone
00:24:36looks down on me now.
00:24:46Hello?
00:24:47Hi, Mr. Dorsey.
00:24:49It's Evelyn Hendricks.
00:24:50I'm just going to inform you
00:24:52that as of today,
00:24:54Hendricks Tech has a force
00:24:55in the AI development race.
00:24:57AI development
00:25:00is the crown jewel
00:25:01of Dorsey Tech.
00:25:03Are you sure
00:25:04you want to challenge us?
00:25:06As I said,
00:25:07I'm just calling
00:25:08to inform you
00:25:09not to have a discussion.
00:25:11Hang on a minute.
00:25:13That's good.
00:25:21What's that slide fox up to?
00:25:23Well, she knows I have
00:25:26my lethal weapon, Eric,
00:25:27so why would she
00:25:28want to go to war
00:25:29with me?
00:25:32Unless...
00:25:32Dad, what's up?
00:25:46Tell me you didn't fire
00:25:47Eric.
00:25:48Uh, okay.
00:25:51Um, just, just calm down
00:25:53just for a second.
00:25:54I only fired the slacker
00:25:56you told me about.
00:25:57Okay, then explain to me
00:25:58why Hendricks Tech
00:25:59is suddenly wanting
00:26:00to go to war with us.
00:26:01Well, I...
00:26:04I just tricked her
00:26:05into thinking
00:26:05that she had a chance.
00:26:07I mean,
00:26:08I'm not an idiot.
00:26:09There's no way
00:26:10I would let
00:26:10some lousy slacker
00:26:12bring down
00:26:13our entire server
00:26:14single-handedly.
00:26:15But I got Evelyn
00:26:16to believe
00:26:16that Eric really did it.
00:26:18She thinks
00:26:19she hit the jackpot,
00:26:20but
00:26:20really she's just
00:26:21picking up our trash.
00:26:22So you intentionally
00:26:23misled Evelyn?
00:26:26She's under the impression
00:26:28that the loser
00:26:28she poached from us
00:26:29is the mastermind
00:26:31behind Dorsey Tech's
00:26:32AI modeling.
00:26:33That's why she had
00:26:34the guts to declare war.
00:26:35Nice job, son.
00:26:37That shows real initiative.
00:26:39I think it's time
00:26:40you take full control
00:26:41of our next-gen
00:26:43AI modeling project.
00:26:46R-really?
00:26:49Dad,
00:26:50thank you.
00:26:51Thank you so much.
00:26:53Now get to work.
00:26:54We are going to make
00:26:55Hendrix Tech
00:26:56the laughingstock
00:26:58of the whole industry.
00:27:01All right.
00:27:02Bye-bye.
00:27:02I love you.
00:27:08Sir,
00:27:08AI modeling
00:27:09is the future
00:27:10of Dorsey Tech.
00:27:12William just graduated.
00:27:14You sure you want
00:27:15to hand the reins
00:27:15over to him this soon?
00:27:16I'd not have given it
00:27:17to him if he was
00:27:18the only one
00:27:18we were counting on.
00:27:19Don't forget,
00:27:20we still have
00:27:21our ace in the hole.
00:27:25You mean Eric Martin?
00:27:28That's right.
00:27:29All I have to do
00:27:30is stay hands-off
00:27:32and let him do
00:27:32what he does best.
00:27:33As long as we have Eric,
00:27:35Hendrix has a
00:27:37snowball's chance in hell.
00:27:39Plus,
00:27:40Evelyn fell for
00:27:41William's bluff
00:27:42and hired that clown,
00:27:44Eric.
00:27:44Now all we have to do
00:27:46is sit back
00:27:47and watch her
00:27:48self-destruct.
00:27:49so now that you've seen the engineering department what are your thoughts it's not bad
00:28:08small 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
00:28:23together a team I heard that you weren't the only one that William Dorsey fired you've got
00:28:31it 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
00:28:56modeling projects seeing as your lead engineer I'm putting you in charge of development
00:29:00is there a problem
00:29:07no not at all don't worry I'm the right man for the job
00:29:14yes 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
00:29:32they were poached by a former employee poached by a former fucking Eric Martin William what
00:29:39should we do there's hardly any tech workers left if anyone else resigns we're done for there's no need
00:29:44to freak out you still have me I can fix this yes no with with you here we're gonna be all right
00:29:51just what's your solution look we lost a few expendable employees that's it let them walk we'll get better
00:29:59once I'll make a few calls
00:30:01like that I like that yes oh fucking Eric Martin oh this is all going swimmingly now I can put
00:30:18my own people in key positions soon I'll have the whole company under my thumb
00:30:22Johnny is an excellent programmer he'll be assuming the role of department head
00:30:29and this is Ruby Leon and Mateo they're professional and reliable former co-workers of mine
00:30:36with this team Hendrix Tech's AI work will be in good hands we're all pleased to meet you Evelyn
00:30:42welcome everyone it's great to have you all on board but I do want to warn you that there is lots of
00:30:49work to do we have a ways to go we want to compete with Dorsey Tech with Eric at the helm we'll always
00:30:56be one step ahead but Dorsey Tech has already developed their own AI program that it's a trial
00:31:04version if they keep developing based on that model then then what then we won't have to lift a finger
00:31:13we used our experience on the trial version to build a next-gen AI neural net patching up the
00:31:28previous loopholes and weaknesses even if Dorsey Tech analyzes the trial version framework and builds a
00:31:34brand new platform we'll still have the upper hand and if they keep building based on the old trial
00:31:39version then we can just sit back and watch them fail mark my words in this battle for dominance
00:31:45Hendrix Tech is destined for victory
00:31:473 a.m. again okay miss Hendrix hey come on we're all alone here call me Evelyn are you always a
00:32:17in this way towards people who are crushing on you?
00:32:19crushing on me you still can't tell Eric I like you I felt this way since college
00:32:32you were the prettiest girl on campus I I didn't think you'd go for a guy like me
00:32:43I've never had my sight set on anyone else.
00:32:48Only you.
00:32:49But you were so oblivious.
00:32:52And when I finally got the courage to tell you how I felt, you disappeared.
00:32:57I went abroad to work on a top-secret trading project.
00:33:02I know.
00:33:03You've always been so brilliant.
00:33:07Back then, I made up my mind I was going to be with you one day.
00:33:13Evelyn, I...
00:33:16And when I founded Hendrix Tech, I wanted to recruit you, but that sneaky bastard Asher Dorsey, he already had snatched you up.
00:33:26I... I... I see, um...
00:33:31So, if I came closer to you now, would you mind?
00:33:37Uh... I, uh...
00:33:41I... I... I should, uh...
00:33:44Uh...
00:33:46It's late. I should probably, uh, be going.
00:33:50Where are you going to go?
00:33:53You lost everything when you left Dorsey, Tech.
00:33:56You kind of have nowhere to go now.
00:33:59Ellen, uh...
00:34:07Let's go.
00:34:11Go where?
00:34:13I'm taking you home.
00:34:22This is it?
00:34:22From now until the AI project is finished, you'll be staying with me.
00:34:30For that long?
00:34:32You sure that's a good idea?
00:34:34I'm your boss, remember.
00:34:35It'll make it easier for me to, um...
00:34:38Supervise you.
00:34:41Okay, um...
00:34:42Well...
00:34:43Where am I going to sleep?
00:34:45Uh...
00:34:46Well, I only have one bedroom, so...
00:34:50You're going to have to share a bed with me.
00:34:53Oh, uh...
00:34:54No, that's...
00:34:56Maybe we... we probably shouldn't, um...
00:34:58I'm messing with you.
00:35:00My place is huge.
00:35:01At least as big as wherever Dorsey had you.
00:35:04Come on.
00:35:04I'll show you your room.
00:35:08Okay.
00:35:11This is what you've got?
00:35:13You're fucking useless!
00:35:15Sir, the modeling framework we're working with is extremely complex.
00:35:19We'll need at least another month to fully understand it.
00:35:27A month?
00:35:28Not a chance!
00:35:30I'm going to give you three days, and I want consistent progress reports.
00:35:34Sir, if we have to rush things, there'll be an increased risk for error.
00:35:37Then you have to work faster and smarter.
00:35:40I'm giving you three days!
00:35:41Eric!
00:35:44Mr. Dorsey!
00:35:45How are things?
00:35:46You dropped your keyboard.
00:35:49Oh.
00:35:50Get back to work.
00:35:52Mr. Dorsey.
00:35:54Things are going great.
00:35:56We'll be on stage two in three more days.
00:35:58That's good to hear.
00:36:00You know, I knew I could trust you with this.
00:36:01William, update me on the AI project.
00:36:10Don't sweat it, Dad.
00:36:11Everything's going according to plan.
00:36:13Wonderful.
00:36:14When our new platform hits the market, I'll stop by to congratulate you.
00:36:17Your father must be so proud of you.
00:36:23Keep it up.
00:36:24Once we hit the market, I'll be sure to let my father know how valuable you've been to us.
00:36:27That's exactly what I need.
00:36:29Who wants to be just department head?
00:36:31If I can keep rising the ranks, I'll be the next vice president of Dorsey Tech.
00:36:36Mr. Dorsey, my job is to put the plans of expert strategists like yourself into action.
00:36:43I believe that if I were the vice president of this company, I could do that even more effectively.
00:36:48If this project does well, I'll see what I could do for you.
00:36:51Really?
00:36:52That's great.
00:36:53Thank you so much, sir.
00:37:10You're up.
00:37:18Come on.
00:37:20You can keep staring at me over breakfast.
00:37:26Right.
00:37:27Breakfast.
00:37:31That looks amazing.
00:37:37When you're done with breakfast, it's straight to work.
00:37:41Got it?
00:37:43Yeah.
00:37:44Of course.
00:37:47Good.
00:37:48And when you're finished with your project, I have a reward waiting.
00:38:07All right, team.
00:38:10We have an important sprint coming up.
00:38:12We have a lot to do and not a lot of time.
00:38:16So let's get to business.
00:38:17And some good news for you guys.
00:38:21I've been in touch with the financing department and you will be receiving paid trips to an
00:38:25all-inclusive resort in Cancun once we wrap.
00:38:28All right.
00:38:30Awesome.
00:38:31Cool.
00:38:32On top of that, when we go public, you will be receiving a bonus as well as a share in our
00:38:37product revenue.
00:38:38Oh, yes.
00:38:38Here at Hendricks, our employees are instrumental in our success and you will be treated as such.
00:38:48We're ready to make it happen, Ms. Hendricks.
00:38:49Oh, amen.
00:38:51Ms. Hendricks, we will have good news for you soon.
00:38:54Yeah, the news that we beat Dorsey Tech.
00:38:56And with Erica on our side, we can't lose.
00:38:59Beat Dorsey.
00:39:01Beat Dorsey.
00:39:02Beat Dorsey.
00:39:04Beat Dorsey.
00:39:06Beat Dorsey.
00:39:07Beat Dorsey.
00:39:08Beat Dorsey.
00:39:09Beat Dorsey.
00:39:10Beat Dorsey.
00:39:40You're hopeless, both of you!
00:40:02Sir, I...
00:40:04Don't speak without my permission.
00:40:07I give you a simple task, and repeatedly you keep screwing it up!
00:40:12How did you blockheads get this job working here anyway?
00:40:16We have a whole AI framework that's just waiting to be used, yet you keep twiddling your thumbs!
00:40:23Either you finish this by the deadline, or you can get the fuck out!
00:40:27Is that clear?
00:40:29Yes, sir.
00:40:31Dad didn't tell me this Eric guy had such a hot temper.
00:40:34And didn't Eric say everything was going fine?
00:40:37Was I wrong to trust him?
00:40:47Mr. Dorsey!
00:40:48What are you doing here?
00:40:50Tell me the truth.
00:40:51Are we on track to make the deadline or not?
00:40:53I can assure you we're doing fine.
00:40:55We're just adding a few finishing touches, so, uh, things are a bit hectic.
00:41:00Hmm.
00:41:00Good.
00:41:01Well, don't be afraid to ask any questions, okay?
00:41:04Don't want any slip-ups.
00:41:06Got it?
00:41:08All right.
00:41:11Darling.
00:41:12No, no, no, no, no.
00:41:13Get me the reports and ask for them.
00:41:15Let's see where you'd be without your daddy's money, you little shit.
00:41:27The fuck are you looking at?
00:41:28Get back to work.
00:41:29And this time, I want results.
00:41:31Miss Hendricks, I've just been informed that Dorsey Tech's next-gen AI platform is nearing completion.
00:41:45It's just a matter of time before it hits the market.
00:41:47Really?
00:41:48That fast?
00:41:50Well, there's a cocktail party three days from now.
00:41:52Dorsey's going to be there announcing their new product and pitching to investors.
00:41:57They're taking things to the next level.
00:41:58That William Dorsey is really milking all his connections.
00:42:03If this goes well for them, we're going to be in a difficult spot.
00:42:05Well, that much is obvious, but I don't know-
00:42:08Good thing we're finished, too.
00:42:10What?
00:42:12Really?
00:42:13Why would I lie?
00:42:14We've been right on pace with Dorsey this whole time.
00:42:17Plus, the sooner they want to go public, the easier it'll be for us.
00:42:21Why would it be better for us?
00:42:22Evelyn, remember what I told you when I first came on board?
00:42:30But Dorsey Tech has already developed their own AI program.
00:42:34That?
00:42:36It's a trial version.
00:42:38If they keep developing base on that model, then...
00:42:41Then what?
00:42:44Then we won't have to lift a finger.
00:42:46Hmm, so what you're saying is that Dorsey Tech has been building off of the trial version that you made?
00:43:00It's the only way they could have built it so fast.
00:43:02It's a rough draft with a whole mess of flaws I wouldn't make a second time.
00:43:06Evelyn, there's nothing for us to worry about.
00:43:10That does make sense.
00:43:12Well then, good.
00:43:14I'm grateful to you and the team for all your hard work.
00:43:17Tell everyone in the tech department that they can take the next three days off.
00:43:21They'll need their rest before we bring product to market.
00:43:24Yes, Ms. Hendrix.
00:43:28This was a big day for us.
00:43:33Why don't we end it with a drink?
00:43:35Aren't you a lightweight?
00:43:41Who said that?
00:43:43I can handle my liquor, Eric Martin.
00:43:59I knew you could be fun.
00:44:01I knew it.
00:44:02I told you.
00:44:02See, that's why that last drink was a bad idea.
00:44:08It was a good idea and I could have had at least two more.
00:44:13Yeah.
00:44:14Yeah, no, you absolutely could.
00:44:16Definitely.
00:44:17You think that you are wild.
00:44:20Okay.
00:44:21No, no.
00:44:22No, we do.
00:44:23We do.
00:44:24See how we do.
00:44:26Super easy.
00:44:27Eric, how do you believe I want a guy like you?
00:44:41Maybe you just want to sober up a lot.
00:44:44I'm sober enough.
00:44:54And what I want is you.
00:44:57William, we've been together for some time now.
00:45:12And my feelings for you have only grown stronger by the day.
00:45:16Let's get married!
00:45:17Hey, where are you?
00:45:25Everyone's out here celebrating and you're a no-show.
00:45:29What a buzzkill.
00:45:31I'm coming.
00:45:34No, that's all right.
00:45:35You know, everyone's leaving.
00:45:38Don't bother.
00:45:40Bye.
00:45:41Hey.
00:45:45Hey.
00:45:46Hey.
00:45:47Where'd you go?
00:45:48I missed you.
00:45:51It's fine.
00:45:54He just had a bit too much to drink.
00:45:56You know, there is a killer martini spot right up the street.
00:46:01Oh.
00:46:01I can get the bartender to whip up something special for him.
00:46:04I'd like that.
00:46:05What?
00:46:05Mm-hmm.
00:46:07Oh, you're so much hotter than that bitch Fernanda.
00:46:09You're just a climber who hopped from her ass over to me.
00:46:13And, you know, she's the kind of woman you throw some money at and then send her away.
00:46:16That's who she is.
00:46:17William, how could you do this to me?
00:46:23You know, she, she, the funny thing is, is she thinks I actually love her.
00:46:28I bagged a hundred babes that are better than her.
00:46:31She's delusional.
00:46:34Ugh, how pathetic.
00:46:36Probably just broke up with her boyfriend or something.
00:46:39Yeah, who gives a shit?
00:46:45You know, I'm gonna break up with Fernandeson, too.
00:46:48And I'll be waiting for you, daddy.
00:46:51Oh, shit.
00:46:57God damn it!
00:46:59What have I done?
00:47:00It's going to be so awkward at work now.
00:47:06And I didn't even get the chance to propose to William.
00:47:11God damn it!
00:47:12What have I done?
00:47:17Eric.
00:47:20It's so cold.
00:47:24Eric.
00:47:24It's fine.
00:47:43I already saw everything last night anyway.
00:47:45How do I look?
00:47:53Um, beautiful.
00:47:59Come on, get up.
00:48:01I have your suit ready, too.
00:48:03Where, where are we going?
00:48:06Where else?
00:48:07We're gonna go crash Dorsey Tech's little cocktail party.
00:48:10What are you doing hiding over here?
00:48:36I told you, you're here as my girlfriend.
00:48:40We have to look them apart.
00:48:42Mr. Dorsey.
00:48:44With money like yours, there must be plenty of other girlfriends you can call.
00:48:49Okay.
00:48:50What's got more to you?
00:48:52You want me to cut your salary or something?
00:48:53Because I can do that.
00:48:55Whatever.
00:48:56Just wait until I'm wasted.
00:48:58Drunk words are sober thoughts.
00:49:00Okay.
00:49:02Mr. Dorsey.
00:49:03Oh.
00:49:04Let's have a toast.
00:49:07To winning over the investors and taking over the market by storm.
00:49:12Cheers.
00:49:13Cheers.
00:49:30Oh, fuck.
00:49:33Man.
00:49:35Well, well, well.
00:49:50It isn't that little rat I fired from Dorsey Tech.
00:49:54Miss Hendricks, I see you've taken quite a liking to this loser, an idiot, right here.
00:50:01Why wouldn't I like Eric?
00:50:03He's a tech genius and the brains behind our new AI platform.
00:50:08Firing him was your loss.
00:50:11Okay.
00:50:11Thanks to Mr. Dorsey's leadership and my fearless efforts, Dorsey Tech AI platform is now reaching
00:50:22the market.
00:50:23You talk a big game.
00:50:25But the only reason why you're here is to ride our coattails.
00:50:29Oh.
00:50:29So what's really funny about that is that we're about to release our own AI platform.
00:50:39Oh, is that so?
00:50:40Oh, well, you frauds don't have a shot against us.
00:50:45How much overtime did you use to make a platform that no one's going to use?
00:50:50Burn, dude.
00:50:51You hear that?
00:50:53Yeah, I would say our monopoly on the tech industry is secure.
00:50:57So, Miss Hendricks, why don't you go on that little love train straight to bankruptcy?
00:51:03We'll see which product no one wants to use.
00:51:06Wow.
00:51:08Jesus, Eric.
00:51:09Didn't we, like, just break up?
00:51:11Look at you.
00:51:13I already head over heels for another woman.
00:51:18Excuse me.
00:51:20What's up?
00:51:21Talk to me.
00:51:22Do you have any idea where I am?
00:51:25What?
00:51:25Uh, the server crashed?
00:51:31Okay, yep.
00:51:33Okay, yep.
00:51:34Um, what the fuck?
00:51:36Server crashed.
00:51:37I'll make a call?
00:51:38Yeah, make a call.
00:51:39It'll be fixed in a minute.
00:51:40Yeah, that's, um, wow.
00:51:43He's got it.
00:51:44Yeah, yeah, you got it.
00:51:45Use the amelioration algorithm.
00:51:48Yes, do it.
00:51:51Amelioration algorithm.
00:51:52That's what I call the code I saved in my tablet,
00:51:54but it's only for emergencies.
00:51:56It won't solve the core problem.
00:51:57Wait, did Eric steal my tablet?
00:52:00Another server crash, huh?
00:52:02If your systems are so unpredictable,
00:52:05you sure people are going to trust your new product?
00:52:09Uh, yeah, this doesn't concern you at all.
00:52:12Uh, what's up, man?
00:52:13We figured it out?
00:52:13Uh, yeah, got it fixed.
00:52:17No big deal.
00:52:18No big deal.
00:52:21Wait, did you just say the company's server crashes?
00:52:25No big deal.
00:52:26This is an internal affair.
00:52:28Internal.
00:52:28And you were driven out.
00:52:32So I would keep your mouth shut.
00:52:34The amelioration algorithm is for emergencies only.
00:52:37It won't address the core issue.
00:52:38So the concurrency bug will just lead to more data corruption
00:52:42and more system crashes.
00:52:43It's such a new mistake.
00:52:45If you understood code, you'd know that.
00:52:48Oh, my God.
00:52:49If you would understand code, you wouldn't.
00:52:50Dude, like, seriously, do you hear yourself?
00:52:53What do you know?
00:52:54Take your bullshit theories somewhere else, please, man.
00:52:59Right.
00:53:00What do I know?
00:53:01I wrote the amelioration algorithm.
00:53:04What did you just say?
00:53:09I wrote the amelioration algorithm.
00:53:12I'm in HR, and the boss still didn't tell me
00:53:14about the mysterious tech genius he hired.
00:53:17Was it really Eric all along?
00:53:19Ugh, what have I done?
00:53:21Shut up.
00:53:22What the?
00:53:22Mr. Dorsey, you can't believe a word they say.
00:53:25They are our competitors.
00:53:27Right.
00:53:29Believe whatever you want.
00:53:30What a dumpster fire.
00:53:34Let's go, honey.
00:53:35Yeah.
00:53:35Oh, my God.
00:53:37Did you just call him honey?
00:53:40Yeah.
00:53:41So?
00:53:41Back when I recruited Eric, I made the terms very clear.
00:53:44I told him he could have whatever he wanted, including me.
00:53:49I'm not like some people, ignoring talents and abusing their trust.
00:53:53What?
00:53:57I have an image to maintain.
00:54:01Yes, of course.
00:54:02So, what you're saying is...
00:54:15It's not that I don't respect Hendrix's tech.
00:54:18Dorsey is less an investment risk.
00:54:20And they have greater potential.
00:54:22I can't justify choosing your product over theirs.
00:54:24Mr. Brown, we're a risk worth taking.
00:54:28Once you see our AI platform, I guarantee you'll want to reconsider.
00:54:34Bravo, bravo.
00:54:36That was quite an inspiring sales pitch, Miss Hendrix.
00:54:39You must be Mr. Dorsey's son.
00:54:43It's a great pleasure.
00:54:45Miss Hendrix and I were just having a little chat.
00:54:47Naturally, I'll still be investing in Dorsey tech.
00:54:50Right.
00:54:50Yeah, so, um, if you're here chasing investments, I would suggest you just give up and go home.
00:54:56With us here, you won't get a rent sent from these guys.
00:54:58That's right.
00:55:00Over 90% of the guests here have already invested in our new AI tech program.
00:55:05Best, get out while you still can.
00:55:09I'm afraid they're right.
00:55:10We've already spent our investment money in promoting Dorsey's new AI platform, so.
00:55:16And I can assure you that any investment you've made will not be wasted.
00:55:20And your money will be paid back in tenfold.
00:55:24At Dorsey Tech, we treat our partners like family.
00:55:26And that's why we love doing business with you.
00:55:29If I were you, I'd cut my losses and take my leave.
00:55:33Get out.
00:55:33Unless you also want to invest in Dorsey Tech.
00:55:41Hey, let the jerks have their fun.
00:55:44They won't be laughing for too much longer.
00:55:56Sounds like a plan.
00:55:57Hmm.
00:56:03Miss Hendricks.
00:56:07Didn't you just tell us to get lost?
00:56:10I didn't want to offend Mr. Dorsey back there.
00:56:12It was all an act.
00:56:13Well, that sounds professional.
00:56:15Then what do you want?
00:56:17Miss Hendricks.
00:56:18Investors know to hedge their bets.
00:56:21What Hendricks Tech is doing is impressive.
00:56:23And I want to offer my help.
00:56:24I know you need funds to promote your products.
00:56:29And I want to assist with that.
00:56:31But you need to sign a contract first.
00:56:34No way am I signing a contract with you.
00:56:36At least hear the terms.
00:56:39If your AI product tops Dorsey Techs, you pay nothing.
00:56:43If they win, you pay everything back.
00:56:47What do you say?
00:56:48That's a lot of money we're talking about.
00:56:51Hmm.
00:56:51Well, it's definitely risky.
00:56:53But I trust Eric.
00:56:56Mr. Brown, we accept your offer.
00:57:06Today, Dorsey Tech's highly anticipated artificial intelligence platform, AI Plus, was released in the United States.
00:57:13On its first day, AI Plus has already gained more than 10 million users,
00:57:18completely equipsing the efforts of their chief competitor, Hendricks Tech,
00:57:21which also launched their new platform, AI King, on the same day.
00:57:26Edwin Hendricks has guts, I'll give her that.
00:57:30But dropping her new product on the same day as us, that is career suicide.
00:57:36Let's get to the office, Griffin.
00:57:39Yes, sir.
00:57:49Relax, Mr. Dorsey.
00:57:50Hendricks Tech is no threat.
00:57:53Yeah, I know.
00:57:54Remember when you said that if this project went well, you'd promote me to vice president?
00:57:59Yeah, I remember, but AI Plus has just barely hit the market.
00:58:03We can't even call it a success yet.
00:58:05Right.
00:58:06True.
00:58:07Yeah.
00:58:11I have news.
00:58:12Talk to me.
00:58:13The bad news is that Hendricks Tech AI platform is much more impressive than we thought.
00:58:20The good news is that their consumer numbers are nowhere close to ours.
00:58:25Okay.
00:58:26All right, I'll take it.
00:58:28I'll take it.
00:58:29Like I said, we're unbeatable.
00:58:32Come on, let's celebrate.
00:58:33No, no, not yet.
00:58:34How did Hendricks Tech even get that product out in that timeline?
00:58:38I mean, they got started much later than we did.
00:58:41I heard from a source at their company that their lead engineer is highly skilled.
00:58:46Lead engineer?
00:58:48Eric?
00:58:49I thought he was supposed to be a nobody.
00:58:53Right?
00:58:54Dad, what's up?
00:59:02William, I'm on my way to the office to congratulate you and Eric.
00:59:06Oh, uh, got it.
00:59:10The boss is coming.
00:59:12We can talk to him about my promotion.
00:59:13Shit.
00:59:14Guys, this isn't good.
00:59:16What is it now?
00:59:17RAI platform and company server have both crashed.
00:59:21What the fuck?
00:59:22Right?
00:59:23Every time.
00:59:23Seriously.
00:59:28God damn, dude.
00:59:33What the fuck is going on?
00:59:34Mr. Martin, the AI platform just crashed out of nowhere, brought the whole server down along with it.
00:59:39Then don't just sit around like an idiot.
00:59:41Fix it.
00:59:42Sir, this is an issue with the system's core framework.
00:59:44We didn't build that.
00:59:46What do you mean you didn't build it?
00:59:48We're using the same framework that Eric built before he left.
00:59:50Eric, the guy I fired?
00:59:51Yeah, Eric with a K.
00:59:52E-R-I-K.
00:59:53You took credit for someone else's work.
00:59:58You lied to me!
01:00:00Mr. Dorsey, let me explain.
01:00:02No, there is no time for explanation.
01:00:04Why didn't you rebuild the core framework?
01:00:05Mr. Dorsey, we need to focus on getting the company server up and running.
01:00:09Our user's trust depends on it.
01:00:10Speak!
01:00:11Speak!
01:00:11What happened to the company server?
01:00:13Sir, he was the one.
01:00:14I didn't do shit!
01:00:16Shut your mouth!
01:00:17Go!
01:00:17The solution he used, the amelioration algorithm after the last two crashes.
01:00:21It's not designed as a long-term solution to the serious concurrency bug in the code.
01:00:26Every time that bug is reproduced, it leads to more serious corruption.
01:00:29It's been a ticking time bomb ever since.
01:00:32This time, the AI platform went down, brought the whole server down along with it.
01:00:35It's completely unfixable.
01:00:40This was all your fault.
01:00:43William, all of our users are switching over to Hendrix Tech AI platform.
01:00:47What should we do?
01:00:47How the fuck am I supposed to know?
01:00:55Mr. Dorsey, what on earth is going on?
01:00:57I'm not going to let you assholes drag me down like this.
01:01:00Look, sir, I can explain.
01:01:01I'm sorry, okay?
01:01:03It's going to be fixed.
01:01:03I have billions of dollars invested in you, damn it.
01:01:06I'm going to make sure the whole industry knows about this scandal.
01:01:09Dorsey Tech has finished.
01:01:17500,000?
01:01:18We just passed 500,000!
01:01:20You guys, 98.
01:01:2299!
01:01:241 million!
01:01:25Oh my God!
01:01:26Oh my God!
01:01:28What?
01:01:30Hey, hey, it's still going up!
01:01:37It's still going up!
01:01:38Fuck, fuck, fuck!
01:01:41This is all your fault!
01:01:43This is all your fault!
01:01:44Mr. Dorsey, fuck!
01:01:47I wanted to help you.
01:01:49I was trying to help the company.
01:01:50I've had enough of your bullshit.
01:01:52You fired half the bloody tech departments.
01:01:55What was I supposed to do?
01:01:57And you gave us impossible deadlines.
01:01:58No, no, no, don't make this about me.
01:02:00I get it now.
01:02:01You were using my promotion as bait.
01:02:03You were never going to make me VP.
01:02:05You want your job or not?
01:02:07Is that a threat?
01:02:09Fire me.
01:02:10Do it.
01:02:10You think I won't?
01:02:12If Eric leaves, so do I.
01:02:15Me too.
01:02:16See, when you fired everyone, I replaced them with my people.
01:02:23Go ahead, fire me.
01:02:25You'll clear out your whole tech department.
01:02:27You will sink Dorsey Tech.
01:02:30You were never the prized tech genius at Dorsey Tech.
01:02:33You were the slacker my father warned me about.
01:02:35William!
01:02:37William!
01:02:41William!
01:02:44I'm ashamed to call you my son.
01:02:49What the hell have you done to my company?
01:02:52Dad, I'm sorry.
01:02:55I'm not here for apologies.
01:02:57What the hell is this idiot doing here?
01:03:03I thought you fired him.
01:03:05Where's Eric?
01:03:07Dad, I fired Eric.
01:03:10You fired him?
01:03:14Was that a mistake?
01:03:18Dad, are you okay?
01:03:20Hey, are you okay?
01:03:22I busted my fucking balls to get Eric to Dorsey Tech.
01:03:29He was the backbone behind this company.
01:03:33And what did you do?
01:03:35You fired him.
01:03:37So, um, it was Eric with a K all along?
01:03:42Oh, I fucked up.
01:03:44God, I fucked up.
01:03:46Where is Eric now?
01:03:47I will get down on my knees and beg him to come back.
01:03:52Um, Eric is at, uh, Hendrix Tech.
01:03:58You are a sorry excuse for a son.
01:04:04You are destroying my company.
01:04:10Sir, bad news.
01:04:13It appears that the server crash was just the beginning.
01:04:16What's going on?
01:04:17The crash also affected our automobile software.
01:04:20There have been at least 30 car accidents across the U.S.
01:04:24Uh, fuck.
01:04:26Six people have died.
01:04:33No, no.
01:04:35This isn't my fault.
01:04:36It was Eric's fault.
01:04:37Eric with a K.
01:04:38It was his code that was faulty.
01:04:41No, that's fucking bullshit.
01:04:42I fired him before that happened.
01:04:43But I stumbled upon his tablet and the code that he wrote.
01:04:47I'm only guilty of using his work.
01:04:49Everything else was his fault.
01:04:51I wrote the amelioration algorithm.
01:04:55God, it mistook the genius for the loser.
01:04:58I'm not going down like this.
01:05:01Dorsey Tech ain't finished yet.
01:05:04Not finished yet.
01:05:06Griffin.
01:05:08Take this man to the police.
01:05:10If Dorsey Tech goes under, he'll have to pay for this.
01:05:14Yes, sir.
01:05:16Oh, my God.
01:05:30Cheers.
01:05:32Mr. Brown.
01:05:38Looks like your contract worked in our favor.
01:05:41So we will not be returning the $5 billion you invested.
01:05:44And again, thank you for your generosity.
01:05:47Wait.
01:05:48Do I at least deserve some dividends?
01:05:50I'm sorry, Mr. Brown.
01:05:51But the terms you insisted on were very clear.
01:05:55We beat Dorsey Tech, so we owe you nothing.
01:05:57Which includes any dividends you might have otherwise received.
01:06:01But...
01:06:01No.
01:06:02No more buts.
01:06:04Goodbye, Mr. Brown.
01:06:08Tonight, I'll give you that reward I was telling you.
01:06:17Oh.
01:06:18I'm sure it'll be very special.
01:06:22And you have no idea.
01:06:25Eric!
01:06:27I know I messed up before.
01:06:31It's all over for Dorsey Tech now.
01:06:34Is there anything you can do to help me?
01:06:38What the hell are you doing grabbing my boyfriend?
01:06:42Boyfriend?
01:06:43That's right.
01:06:45I'm his girlfriend now.
01:06:47We're living together and we're getting married soon, too.
01:06:51But...
01:06:51You...
01:06:52You can't...
01:06:54No, it's not possible.
01:06:56He was mine first.
01:06:58You dumped him and you treated him like trash.
01:07:01It's a little late for you to come crawling back.
01:07:07Guys, can we...
01:07:09Eric...
01:07:12No.
01:07:13Eric...
01:07:13You're hot when you're bossy.
01:07:23You like?
01:07:24Yeah.
01:07:25Eric?
01:07:26What?
01:07:27Eric?
01:07:31What is it now?
01:07:41Eric.
01:07:43You know how much I've done for you.
01:07:46Dorsey Tech is in dire straits.
01:07:48We need your help.
01:07:52Mr. Dorsey, all those things you gave me, I returned when your son accused me of hacking
01:07:57the company's server and demanding compensation.
01:08:02Oh, has he not told you?
01:08:05No, that is not how it went down at all.
01:08:08It was that dirtbag, Eric with the C, who went behind my back and got me all mixed up.
01:08:14Oh, yeah?
01:08:15Well, your little mix-up made me lose everything I had, including my career.
01:08:21Did it feel good to make me the scapegoat for your mistake?
01:08:25Eric, I am really sorry.
01:08:28I don't want your fake apology, and I'm not coming back to you.
01:08:34So, would you please leave our office?
01:08:37Now, would you please leave our office?
01:08:45We wish Dorsey Tech the very best.
01:08:48You fucking doomed us, son!
01:09:08You doomed Dorsey Tech!
01:09:12Dead, dead, dead.
01:09:14Dead?
01:09:15Dead!
01:09:16Dead!
01:09:18Dead!
01:09:24So, you're really not going to help them?
01:09:27They're the ones who fired me.
01:09:30Now they have to live with the outcome.
01:09:33Not to the sweet taste of victory.
01:09:35To the sweet taste of victory.
01:09:37To the sweet taste of victory.
01:09:48Dr.
01:10:07Hello.
