00:00:00Breaking news, a Webster motor car with faulty brakes caused a deadly explosion, killing three college students.
00:00:09As the company's silence raises questions about accountability, authorities are investigating.
00:00:13God damn it!
00:00:15Do you see this?
00:00:16They're calling our car a burning coffin.
00:00:18They act like we killed those kids ourselves.
00:00:21We need to figure out why the door jammed or Webster's going belly under.
00:00:23Hear you, but we've already dropped 100K on diagnostic tests alone and nothing, not up.
00:00:29I don't want to hear your excuses.
00:00:31You're a goddamn Ivy League graduate.
00:00:33I pay you $200,000 a year, either figure it out or find a new job.
00:00:38And what the hell do you think you're doing?
00:00:41Tinkering around.
00:00:42We have to run a whole AI diagnostic system and you're over here fiddling.
00:00:46With all due respect, Mr. Russell, I know the Webster Corsair, like the back of my hand.
00:00:51I designed this car back in the day.
00:00:53I'll figure out what's wrong with it.
00:00:54We have a million dollar AI diagnostic so we can't turn up anything.
00:00:57But you're going to figure it out with a $5 wrench?
00:01:00Well, fancy gadgets and high-minded degrees can be important, but sometimes what you need is plain old school.
00:01:07You know what?
00:01:08Go ahead.
00:01:09I got nothing to lose.
00:01:10But if anything goes wrong, it's on your ass.
00:01:12Don't worry.
00:01:13I won't mess this up.
00:01:15Let's go.
00:01:15Found it.
00:01:34See that?
00:01:35From a shirt.
00:01:36Car owner must have made a legal modification, snagged it on a thread during the installation, and jammed the latch during impact.
00:01:43Webster's not at fault.
00:01:45You saved the company a few million, buddy.
00:01:47Let's go show the boss.
00:01:48You are embarrassing me and you're embarrassing yourself.
00:01:51I think I found the problem.
00:01:55Ah, you old son of a bitch.
00:01:57You did it.
00:01:58All right, I'm going to go to the press and tell the board all the good news.
00:02:02You're a hero at Webster Motor.
00:02:08Attention, everyone.
00:02:09This concludes today's shift.
00:02:11Please shut down your stations and clock out.
00:02:13Drive safe and we'll see you tomorrow.
00:02:15Oh, Mr. Walker, can I have a word?
00:02:24Oh, of course.
00:02:33Um, this is a car my nephew got from his grandmother.
00:02:38It's a collector's item, which means it's one of a kind, and you're the only one I trust to fix it.
00:02:42You know, it's funny, last week it was a plane, this week it's a car.
00:02:47Your nephew sure likes to break things, huh?
00:02:49They're just messy, teenagers.
00:02:51Tell me about it.
00:02:52My daughter was the same way.
00:02:54I can have her back to you tomorrow.
00:02:56Great.
00:02:57Is your payment?
00:02:59$100,000.
00:03:01Miss Wolf, it's an easy fix.
00:03:04You don't have to pay me.
00:03:06Good to see you.
00:03:07Oh, Hank, wait.
00:03:08I'll be straight with you.
00:03:18Okay, you've been at Webster for 40 years.
00:03:20You know cars.
00:03:22You're one of the best engineers in the world.
00:03:24But they treat you worse than the mechanics that work for an hourly rate.
00:03:28Why don't you come work for me at Mach 15?
00:03:31We're developing a new supercar, Silver Link's Model A, and I want you to be in charge.
00:03:35The starting pay is $10 million.
00:03:39That's a lot of money.
00:03:41But you said so yourself, Miss Wolf.
00:03:42I've been with Webster Motors for 40 years, and any time I have remaining, I just assume
00:03:50it be with them.
00:03:51Old mucks like me, we're the backbone of Detroit's industry.
00:03:55You got a good job on your hands, and you should give it to a youngster.
00:03:59As for me, just stick to toy cars.
00:04:07Hey, look who's early.
00:04:10Hey, how you doing, man?
00:04:11Good.
00:04:11Oh, hey.
00:04:13Here comes Tom Norris.
00:04:16You reckon he's here to give us a bonus?
00:04:18I doubt it.
00:04:20Move.
00:04:21Move, move, move, move, move.
00:04:22All right, all right, all right.
00:04:23Hey, listen up.
00:04:25I have an announcement.
00:04:26Webster Motors has gone through a change of hands.
00:04:29We've been purchased by Tesalux.
00:04:34Ah, ah, ah.
00:04:34Yes, that Tesalux, the EV car company.
00:04:37Sir, a big man upstairs is now some guy named Elon.
00:04:42Tesalux is a tech company.
00:04:44Big emphasis on tech.
00:04:46So all you boomers, you're fired.
00:04:49You're fired.
00:04:53What?
00:04:54Wait, what?
00:04:55Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:04:57We're all fired.
00:04:59That can't be right.
00:05:00Oh, you need me to spell it out for you?
00:05:02Fine.
00:05:04Webster Motors has purchased a cutting-edge AI detection system from Apex AI for over 10 billion.
00:05:11And let me tell you, this software makes all of you has-been boomers look like a bunch of fucking amateurs.
00:05:17It'll do more for this company in 10 minutes than you could do in 10 years.
00:05:23So, go home.
00:05:25Wait for death to come knocking.
00:05:28Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:05:28Now, hold on.
00:05:29That ain't right.
00:05:31Look, we are the backbone of Webster Motors, right?
00:05:34We built this company up from the ground.
00:05:37Hell, some of us were here before Webster was.
00:05:39You can't just let us go. That is workplace discrimination, right, boys?
00:05:43Yeah, right.
00:05:44We're gonna fucking sue you.
00:05:45Well, it's not ageism if you're just bad.
00:05:48We're a tech company now.
00:05:50We need computer people who write AI that does what you do, but they do it better and faster.
00:05:57Face it, this is the 21st century.
00:05:59Everything is fast and digital.
00:06:01It's time for you washed-up old barts to pack your little backs and fuck off.
00:06:06Because like it or not, you've been replaced.
00:06:08I might not know anything about AI, but I do know one thing.
00:06:13These machines here, they're finicky.
00:06:15And unless real people are monitoring the assembly line at all times,
00:06:19it's only a matter of time before something goes boom.
00:06:23And all production stops.
00:06:24That's right.
00:06:26What do you mean everything goes boom?
00:06:27I've worked here for 40 years.
00:06:31I know these machines.
00:06:32They need to be checked on and resurviced.
00:06:35Otherwise, you're gonna lose billions.
00:06:37Oh, okay.
00:06:39So you're saying the reason that I can't fire you old bucks
00:06:44is because I need someone to watch the machine all day or it's gonna go boom?
00:06:48Yeah, that's right.
00:06:48And you better make sure they have the experience to know what they're looking for.
00:06:51Oh, holy fuck.
00:06:54You're a real fucking shameless one, you know.
00:06:56I know you won't be able to get another job,
00:06:58but that doesn't mean you can make shit up either.
00:07:00I'm not making anything up.
00:07:02I'm telling you how it is based on my experience.
00:07:05All right.
00:07:06Old man, I gotta go, all right?
00:07:08But don't think you're anything special because of yesterday.
00:07:11I downloaded the source code from the diagnostic test myself,
00:07:14and that car was perfectly fine.
00:07:17You lucked out with that screw.
00:07:18So all you need to do is go back and rot in hospice.
00:07:23No, no, no, how dare you?
00:07:25How dare you?
00:07:25We built this city with our own hands.
00:07:28We are the ones that brought industry to Detroit.
00:07:30We did all that hard labor so kids like you could go run off to college.
00:07:34And now this is how you're going to treat us?
00:07:36Shut up!
00:07:36Right?
00:07:37Shut up!
00:07:38You disgusting old fucking hicks.
00:07:41Or I'll call the cops.
00:07:43As of now, you're fired.
00:07:44So this is trespassing.
00:07:46Tom, you need to tell the assembly line supers about the maintenance.
00:07:51If something happens to one of these machines,
00:07:53it's going to cost Webster millions.
00:07:55And it's a safety hazard.
00:07:56I do not give a fuck about your experience.
00:07:59That is all subjective bullshit.
00:08:02We have the cold, hard facts right here.
00:08:04Our new AI detection system will be fully operational in a few short days.
00:08:09You really think it can't handle a few finicky machines?
00:08:12It'll have them back in tip-top shape before you old schmucks need to get your gloves on.
00:08:17Now hurry up and scram or you can forget about your final fucking paychecks.
00:08:27It's all right.
00:08:28It's all right.
00:08:29Let it go, okay?
00:08:29Look, you warned him plenty about the assembly line, huh?
00:08:32It's his own fault now if you won't miss it.
00:08:36Come on, fellas.
00:08:36Let's go.
00:08:37Let's get out of here.
00:08:38Guy's a creep.
00:08:39What do you mean you can't fix it?
00:08:41I pay you millions of dollars for what?
00:08:44Mach 15 is on the line and if you can't fix it-
00:08:46Miss Wolfe, Miss Wolfe.
00:08:47Can't you see that I'm on the phone?
00:08:48Webster Motors just fired that old car mechanic you told me to keep an eye on.
00:08:51I'll call you back.
00:08:54They fired Hank Walker?
00:08:57Evelyn, I need you to find him.
00:08:59Our CNC mills just suffered a critical error and he's the only one that can fix it.
00:09:03Make sure he gets here, okay?
00:09:04We need him!
00:09:05Got it, boss.
00:09:06I'll offer him a job.
00:09:07What's the pay ceiling?
00:09:09There's no ceiling.
00:09:11We're paying him whatever he wants.
00:09:14I'll have you, Hank.
00:09:16Hey, I'll catch up with you, Hank.
00:09:17Hi, I'm looking for a Mr. Walker.
00:09:22Who, Hank?
00:09:23Yeah, he just missed him.
00:09:24He went to go see his daughter.
00:09:28Grandpa!
00:09:34Grandpa, I miss you so much.
00:09:36I didn't even get to play with you all last night.
00:09:39I know, kiddo.
00:09:41Your grandpa was busy at work.
00:09:42But I'm going to have a lot more time now.
00:09:45I can come over every day if you want.
00:09:47Yeah?
00:09:49Oh, you're getting strong.
00:09:51Dad.
00:09:52Shouldn't you be at work?
00:09:54I'm actually not going to be working there anymore.
00:09:57Webster laid me off.
00:09:59You got fired?
00:10:02Fuck.
00:10:03What are we going to do about the mortgage now?
00:10:05Mortgage?
00:10:06What are you talking about?
00:10:07The mortgage for this house, you stupid old fuck.
00:10:10Hannah and I have been using your paycheck to pay off the mortgage.
00:10:13What are we going to do now?
00:10:14They're going to foreclose on us.
00:10:15Jesse, I've been giving you my paycheck since you and Helen got married.
00:10:20Why isn't the mortgage paid off yet?
00:10:22Because a whole year's worth of your salary didn't even last me a single night in Vegas.
00:10:27So you were gambling it?
00:10:29I bust my back ten hours a day and what?
00:10:33You gambled it all away in one night on craps?
00:10:36Poker?
00:10:36I can't believe you two.
00:10:38All right?
00:10:38I've given everything for you guys.
00:10:40I stopped drinking coffee for you, all right?
00:10:42I barely scrape by on $300 a month.
00:10:45And you flush it down the drain, gambling?
00:10:49Look old man, I don't care.
00:10:51But Helen and I need the money to pay off the mortgage.
00:10:54And until you get another job, I want you to stay away from Audrey.
00:10:59Oh, Grandpa!
00:11:00What's coming into you, Jesse?
00:11:04I'm near retirement, okay?
00:11:07What's an old man like me supposed to do?
00:11:10You and Helen and little Audrey, you guys are all that I have.
00:11:14I just want to see this little girl grow up, okay?
00:11:17Please.
00:11:19I already lost my wife.
00:11:20Don't talk about my mom.
00:11:21If you weren't so stubborn,
00:11:24if you would have just left Detroit when you had the chance,
00:11:26she would have had better insurance coverage and not die.
00:11:31I would be in a better place, too.
00:11:33And now we're all stuck in this hellhole because of you.
00:11:39You're useless.
00:11:41My buddy Tom Norris got promoted to senior engineer in a year.
00:11:46You've been there for decades.
00:11:47And you're still just some low-level mechanic.
00:11:50Now get out!
00:11:52Now stay away from Audrey!
00:11:56You want to see Audrey again?
00:11:58Who brings a nice, fat paycheck?
00:12:01Jesse's right.
00:12:03Got a job.
00:12:04You owe that to us.
00:12:05Now go dumpster dive if you have to.
00:12:11I just didn't want to give up on my city.
00:12:15Is that so wrong?
00:12:20Oh, look at that stinky hobo.
00:12:23Let's cross the street before he gets all his germs on us.
00:12:35Webster still hasn't given us our last paycheck.
00:12:37And I haven't eaten since last night.
00:12:39I guess this will have to be my dinner.
00:12:52Holy shit.
00:13:01Hank Walker.
00:13:03The rock star engineer behind our 1987 Webster Corsair.
00:13:07What are you doing?
00:13:08Eating out of a dumpster.
00:13:10Tom, you know this guy.
00:13:12Yeah.
00:13:13Fired him yesterday.
00:13:14He's a piece of shit mechanic who wouldn't stop going on about,
00:13:17Oh, the assembly line's going to explode.
00:13:19So I got rid of him.
00:13:21It's no laughing matter, Tom.
00:13:23I'm serious.
00:13:24If you're not careful, that whole assembly line is going to malfunction.
00:13:27Oh, fuck, man.
00:13:29Still stuck on that?
00:13:30That is bullshit.
00:13:32Hank Walker.
00:13:33They may have kept you around for 40 years because they're dumb.
00:13:37But I know you're nothing special.
00:13:39If you were anything like me, you'd at least be a manager.
00:13:41Well, they did ask me.
00:13:43But I turned them down.
00:13:45Because I want to work with cars.
00:13:48That's what I do best.
00:13:49And I don't need some empty title.
00:13:51But Tom, you have got to listen to me, okay?
00:13:53Have your guys watch the line.
00:13:55Otherwise, it's going to cost Webster millions.
00:13:57What a joke!
00:13:58I can't with you.
00:14:00Look, this is our newest software.
00:14:03All the lights are green.
00:14:05Green means good.
00:14:07See?
00:14:08Nothing can possibly go wrong.
00:14:11Warning, malfunction detected.
00:14:14Initiating emergency stop protocol.
00:14:18No way this bastard got it right.
00:14:22What the hell happened here?
00:14:23The machine, it's smoking.
00:14:25I don't know.
00:14:26It shouldn't be doing that.
00:14:27We're following the exact same procedures we've always done.
00:14:31Well, it is.
00:14:32Look at it.
00:14:33If this machine goes down,
00:14:35we're going to have to shut down the whole plant.
00:14:37We're going to lose millions of dollars.
00:14:40Norris, I don't care what you do.
00:14:42Fix it.
00:14:43By the end of the day,
00:14:44or you're done.
00:14:50What are you just standing there for?
00:14:52Fix it!
00:14:52Well, Tom, the thing is,
00:14:55we don't know what the problem is.
00:14:57We don't know what's wrong.
00:14:58What do you mean?
00:14:59Didn't you go to college for this fucking shit?
00:15:01We just used to do what the older guys and Hank would do.
00:15:04They would diagnose it,
00:15:05and they would solve it.
00:15:06Fuck!
00:15:07I'm so fucking sick of this fucking Hank guy.
00:15:11What do you want me to do?
00:15:12You want me to go back
00:15:13and bring back those old fossils
00:15:15that I just fucking fired?
00:15:16Fuck off!
00:15:17This whole plant
00:15:19isn't going to suddenly cease to function
00:15:20because a few wrinkly old farts
00:15:22got laid off.
00:15:24That's bullshit!
00:15:24Now fucking fix it!
00:15:26Faster!
00:15:30Miss Wolfe,
00:15:31I just don't see why we need
00:15:33a mechanic like Cakewalker right now.
00:15:34Don't we already have an expert
00:15:36from Apex AI
00:15:37working on the CNC machine mill?
00:15:39We already lost
00:15:39one full production line.
00:15:41If we lose another,
00:15:42that could mean
00:15:42hundreds of millions of dollars
00:15:44of loss and profits.
00:15:45Look, you keep an eye on the factory,
00:15:46and I will go find Hank
00:15:48because he's the only one
00:15:49I trust to fix this.
00:15:50There will never be a replacement
00:15:51for good,
00:15:52old-fashioned human ingenuity.
00:15:55Machines and humans
00:15:55can work together
00:15:56to create the most efficient outcome.
00:15:59But a machine
00:15:59will never replace a human.
00:16:11Getting scrapped, sir?
00:16:12You know it.
00:16:13We still have a lot of material
00:16:15that we need to get rid of.
00:16:16If you can carry it,
00:16:17it's all yours.
00:16:20Sir, there must be something
00:16:22you can do.
00:16:22We need to fix this now.
00:16:24Well, luckily,
00:16:24you came to the right place.
00:16:25I mean, we here at Apex AI
00:16:27know exactly what we're doing.
00:16:29We can handle stuff like this
00:16:30in our sleep.
00:16:31So we're just gonna
00:16:32have our diagnostics run on it,
00:16:34figure out a problem,
00:16:35and boom,
00:16:35Bob's your uncle.
00:16:36So this is Apex AI's
00:16:38new detection software?
00:16:40It looks brilliant.
00:16:43Jesus lady.
00:16:44I mean, what did you do
00:16:45to this thing?
00:16:46This is a critical failure.
00:16:48Is there any way
00:16:48you can get it fixed
00:16:49by the end of the day?
00:16:50We need to have production
00:16:51back on schedule
00:16:52or my boss
00:16:52is gonna kill me.
00:16:53I know that machine.
00:16:55The reading is off
00:16:56simply because the sensor
00:16:57skips without a manual check.
00:16:59I mean, this is not a job
00:16:59that you can finish in a day,
00:17:01okay?
00:17:01I mean, this is gonna
00:17:01take like a week.
00:17:02We don't have a week.
00:17:03We have a client waiting on us.
00:17:04We have to get these parts
00:17:05machined now.
00:17:06Is there anything else
00:17:07you can do, please?
00:17:10I mean,
00:17:11we might have a solution.
00:17:13It's just the,
00:17:14it's the pay that you're offering,
00:17:15though.
00:17:15$2,000 for an eight-hour workday?
00:17:17Then,
00:17:18it just needs a reset.
00:17:20They're asking for even more.
00:17:22Ah.
00:17:24Mr. Pierre,
00:17:25Mr. Espan,
00:17:25money is not an issue.
00:17:26I will give you
00:17:27$2 million each
00:17:28for your work here today.
00:17:29And if all goes well,
00:17:31there'll be a little bonus
00:17:31in it for you both as well.
00:17:32Okay.
00:17:33All right,
00:17:33don't worry about it
00:17:34good-looking.
00:17:35All right,
00:17:35fixing machines,
00:17:36that's our job.
00:17:37It's a very tough
00:17:38and thankless
00:17:39and very, very difficult job,
00:17:40but we'll get it up
00:17:41and running for you.
00:17:42I can't believe
00:17:43they just scammed
00:17:44that poor girl.
00:17:46And then you're gonna
00:17:47twist it the other way?
00:17:48Get in there.
00:17:49See?
00:17:50Our new AI tool
00:17:51has a solution
00:17:52for everything.
00:17:53Whoa.
00:17:57Step 37,
00:17:58that's what it said.
00:17:59Jeez,
00:17:59this isn't ever
00:18:00happening when Hank
00:18:01was around.
00:18:01Shut up.
00:18:03Do I really fuck up
00:18:04by firing those old-timers?
00:18:06I'm not gonna have
00:18:06to bring Hank
00:18:07back on board,
00:18:07am I?
00:18:11What?
00:18:12Apex AI's tech experts
00:18:13are over at Mach 15?
00:18:15Oh, perfect.
00:18:16Those guys are a golden ticket
00:18:18fixing this machine.
00:18:19I'll head over right now.
00:18:21I'll head over right now.
00:18:27All righty.
00:18:29Fire it up.
00:18:32No!
00:18:33Not yet.
00:18:37You can't.
00:18:38You gotta reset
00:18:39the machine first.
00:18:41Otherwise,
00:18:41you'll be operating
00:18:42under the faulty presets.
00:18:44You're leading this machine
00:18:45down a one-way path
00:18:46to catastrophic failure.
00:18:48Okay, I'm sorry.
00:18:49Who the fuck is this guy?
00:18:50Go back,
00:18:51get your scrap,
00:18:51get out of here.
00:18:52Okay,
00:18:53you're distracting us
00:18:54from this billion-dollar
00:18:56machine here.
00:18:57It's an easy fix,
00:18:58but I bet you two
00:19:00knew that,
00:19:00didn't you?
00:19:01You talked it up to her
00:19:02so you could get
00:19:03that extra pay.
00:19:04What are you talking about?
00:19:05Wow.
00:19:06You know what,
00:19:06Miss Evelyn,
00:19:06can you get your guys
00:19:07to get him out of here?
00:19:08Okay,
00:19:09he's distracting us
00:19:10from working.
00:19:11Sir,
00:19:11I'm gonna have to ask you
00:19:12to step back, please.
00:19:13We have plenty of scrap metal
00:19:14and I'd be happy
00:19:15to help you get it.
00:19:16Miss, miss,
00:19:16forget the scrap metal.
00:19:18If you give me ten minutes
00:19:19with this machine,
00:19:19I will tell you exactly
00:19:20what's wrong with it.
00:19:22And I'll fix it for you,
00:19:23free of charge.
00:19:25Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:19:25Okay, so,
00:19:26you're saying you can
00:19:27fix this in ten minutes.
00:19:28We're two of the best
00:19:29mechanics in the world
00:19:30armed with a brand
00:19:31spanking new
00:19:32AI detection system.
00:19:33Now,
00:19:33if we can't pull this
00:19:34off in ten minutes,
00:19:34what's a scruffy old fart
00:19:36like you gonna do?
00:19:37You may have
00:19:37your fancy AI,
00:19:39but these machines,
00:19:40they were built by people
00:19:42and they're meant
00:19:42to be maintenanced
00:19:43by people.
00:19:44I've been in this industry
00:19:45for 40 years.
00:19:46Trust me,
00:19:47I know what I'm talking about.
00:19:48You need somebody
00:19:49like Hank Walker.
00:19:50Miss Wolf said
00:19:51he's a genius
00:19:52car mechanic
00:19:52and he wouldn't know
00:19:53how to fix this.
00:19:58That's me.
00:19:59Breaking news.
00:20:08A Webster motor car
00:20:09with faulty brakes
00:20:10caused a deadly explosion,
00:20:11killing three college students.
00:20:13As the company's silence
00:20:14raises questions
00:20:15about accountability,
00:20:16authorities are investigating.
00:20:18God damn it!
00:20:19Do you see this?
00:20:21They're calling our car
00:20:21a burning coffin.
00:20:23They act like we killed
00:20:24those kids ourselves.
00:20:25We need to figure out
00:20:26why the door jammed
00:20:27Webster's going belly under.
00:20:28I hear you,
00:20:29but we've already dropped
00:20:30100K on diagnostic tests alone
00:20:32and nothing now.
00:20:34I don't want to hear
00:20:34your excuses.
00:20:36You're a goddamn
00:20:36Ivy League graduate.
00:20:38I pay you $200,000 a year,
00:20:40either figure it out
00:20:41or find a new job.
00:20:43And what the hell
00:20:43do you think you're doing?
00:20:45Tinkering around.
00:20:46We have to run a whole
00:20:47AI diagnostic system
00:20:49and you're over here
00:20:49fiddling.
00:20:51With all due respect,
00:20:52Mr. Russell,
00:20:53I know the Webster Corsair,
00:20:55like the back of my hand.
00:20:56I designed this car
00:20:57back in the day.
00:20:58I'll figure out
00:20:58what's wrong with it.
00:20:59We have a million dollar
00:21:00AI diagnosis
00:21:01who can't turn up anything.
00:21:02But you're going to figure it out
00:21:03with a $5 wrench?
00:21:05Well, fancy gadgets
00:21:06and high-minded degrees
00:21:08can be important,
00:21:09but sometimes what you need
00:21:11is plain old experience.
00:21:12You know what?
00:21:13Go at it.
00:21:13I got nothing to lose.
00:21:14But if anything goes wrong,
00:21:15it's on your ass.
00:21:16Don't worry.
00:21:18I won't mess this up.
00:21:18Let's go.
00:21:35Found it.
00:21:38See that?
00:21:40From a shirt.
00:21:41Our owner must have
00:21:41made a legal modification,
00:21:43snagged down a thread
00:21:44during the installation,
00:21:46and jammed the latch
00:21:46during impact.
00:21:48Webster's not at fault.
00:21:49You saved the company
00:21:50a few million, buddy.
00:21:52Let's go show the boss.
00:21:53You are embarrassing me
00:21:54and you're embarrassing yourself.
00:21:55I think I found the problem.
00:22:00Ah, you old son of a bitch.
00:22:02You did it.
00:22:02All right, I'm going to go
00:22:03to the press
00:22:04and tell the board
00:22:04all the good news.
00:22:06You're a hero, Webster Motor.
00:22:08Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:22:09Attention, everyone.
00:22:14This concludes today's shift.
00:22:16Please shut down your stations
00:22:17and clock out.
00:22:18Drive safe,
00:22:19and we'll see you tomorrow.
00:22:26Oh, Mr. Walker.
00:22:27Can I have a word?
00:22:29Oh, of course.
00:22:30Um, this is a car
00:22:40my nephew got
00:22:41from his grandmother.
00:22:42It's a collector's item,
00:22:44which means it's one of a kind,
00:22:45and you're the only one
00:22:46I trust to fix it.
00:22:47You know, it's funny,
00:22:47last week it was a plane.
00:22:49This week it's a car.
00:22:51Your nephew sure likes
00:22:52to break things, huh?
00:22:54They're just messy, teenagers.
00:22:55Tell me about it.
00:22:57My daughter was the same way.
00:22:59I can have her back
00:22:59to you tomorrow.
00:23:01Great.
00:23:02Is your payment
00:23:02100k?
00:23:06Yes, Wolf.
00:23:07It's an easy fix.
00:23:08You don't have to pay me.
00:23:10Good to see you.
00:23:11Oh, Hank, wait.
00:23:16Hank, wait.
00:23:21I'll be straight with you, okay?
00:23:22You've been at Webster
00:23:23for 40 years.
00:23:24You know cars.
00:23:26You're one of the best
00:23:27engineers in the world.
00:23:28But they treat you worse
00:23:29than the mechanics
00:23:30that work for an hourly rate.
00:23:33Why don't you come work
00:23:34for me at Mach 15?
00:23:36We're developing
00:23:36a new supercar.
00:23:37Silver Link's Model A,
00:23:38and I want you
00:23:39to be in charge.
00:23:40The starting pay
00:23:41is $10 million.
00:23:43That's a lot of money.
00:23:45But you said so yourself,
00:23:46Miss Wolf.
00:23:48I've been with Webster Motors
00:23:50for 40 years,
00:23:51and any time I have remaining,
00:23:53I just assume it be with them.
00:23:55Old mucks like me,
00:23:56we're the backbone
00:23:58of Detroit's industry.
00:23:59You got a good job
00:24:00on your hands,
00:24:01and you should give it
00:24:02to a youngster.
00:24:03As for me,
00:24:05just stick to toy cars.
00:24:06Hey, look who's early.
00:24:14Hey, how you doing, man?
00:24:15Good.
00:24:16Oh, hey.
00:24:18Here comes, uh,
00:24:19Tom Norris.
00:24:20You reckon he's here
00:24:21to give us a bonus?
00:24:22I doubt it.
00:24:24Move.
00:24:25Move, move, move, move.
00:24:27Hey, listen up.
00:24:29I have an announcement.
00:24:31Webster Motors
00:24:31has gone through
00:24:32a change of hands.
00:24:33We've been purchased
00:24:34by Tessalux.
00:24:38Ah, ah, ah.
00:24:39Yes, that Tessalux,
00:24:41the EV car company.
00:24:42So our big man upstairs,
00:24:43now some guy named Elon.
00:24:46Tessalux is a tech company.
00:24:48Big emphasis on tech.
00:24:50So all you boomers,
00:24:52you're fired.
00:24:56You're fired.
00:24:57What?
00:24:59Wait, what?
00:24:59Wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:25:00We're all fired.
00:25:03That can't be right.
00:25:05Oh, you need me
00:25:06to spell it out for you?
00:25:07Fine.
00:25:08Webster Motors
00:25:09has purchased
00:25:09a cutting-edge AI detection system
00:25:12from Apex AI
00:25:13for over 10 billion.
00:25:16And let me tell you,
00:25:17this software
00:25:18makes all of you
00:25:19has-been boomers
00:25:20look like a bunch
00:25:20of fucking amateurs.
00:25:22It'll do more
00:25:23for this company
00:25:24in 10 minutes
00:25:25than you could do
00:25:26in 10 years.
00:25:27So, go home.
00:25:29Wait for death
00:25:30to come knocking.
00:25:32Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:25:33Now, hold on.
00:25:34That ain't right.
00:25:35Look, we are the backbone
00:25:37of Webster Motors, right?
00:25:39We built this company
00:25:40up from the ground.
00:25:41Hell, some of us
00:25:42were here before
00:25:42Webster was.
00:25:43You can't just let us go.
00:25:44That is workplace
00:25:46discrimination, right, boys?
00:25:47Yeah, right.
00:25:48We're gonna fucking sue you.
00:25:50Well, it's not ageism
00:25:51if you're just bad.
00:25:52We're a tech company now.
00:25:54We need computer people
00:25:56who write AI
00:25:57that does what you do,
00:25:58but they do it better
00:25:59and faster.
00:26:01Face it.
00:26:02This is the 21st century.
00:26:04Everything is fast
00:26:05and digital.
00:26:06It's time for you
00:26:07washed up old farts
00:26:08to pack your little bags
00:26:09and fuck off
00:26:11because like it or not,
00:26:12you've been replaced.
00:26:13I might not know
00:26:13anything about AI,
00:26:15but I do know one thing.
00:26:17These machines here,
00:26:18they're finicky.
00:26:19And unless real people
00:26:21are monitoring
00:26:21the assembly line
00:26:22at all times,
00:26:23it's only a matter of time
00:26:24before something goes boom
00:26:26and all production stops.
00:26:29That's right.
00:26:30What do you mean
00:26:31everything goes boom?
00:26:33I've worked here
00:26:34for 40 years.
00:26:35I know these machines.
00:26:37They need to be checked on
00:26:38and resurviced.
00:26:39Otherwise,
00:26:40you're gonna lose billions.
00:26:41Oh, okay.
00:26:43So you're saying
00:26:45the reason
00:26:46that I can't fire you
00:26:47old farts
00:26:48is because I need someone
00:26:50to watch the machine
00:26:51all day
00:26:51or it's gonna go boom?
00:26:52That's right.
00:26:53And you better make sure
00:26:54they have the experience
00:26:55to know what
00:26:55they're looking for.
00:26:56Oh, holy fuck.
00:26:59You're a real fucking
00:26:59shameless one, you know.
00:27:01I know you won't be able
00:27:02to get another job,
00:27:03but that doesn't mean
00:27:03you can make shit up either.
00:27:05I'm not making anything up.
00:27:07I'm telling you how it is
00:27:08based on my experience.
00:27:09All right.
00:27:10Old man, I gotta go.
00:27:11All right?
00:27:12But don't think
00:27:13you're anything special
00:27:14because of yesterday.
00:27:15I downloaded the source code
00:27:16from the diagnostic test myself
00:27:18and that car
00:27:19was perfectly fine.
00:27:21You lucked out
00:27:22with that screw.
00:27:23So all you need to do
00:27:24is go back
00:27:25and rot
00:27:26in hospice.
00:27:27No, no, no.
00:27:28How dare you?
00:27:29How dare you?
00:27:30We built this city
00:27:31with our own hands.
00:27:32We are the ones
00:27:33that brought industry
00:27:33to Detroit.
00:27:34Yeah.
00:27:35We did all that hard labor
00:27:36so kids like you
00:27:37could go run off
00:27:38to college.
00:27:39And now this is how
00:27:40you're gonna treat us?
00:27:40Shut up.
00:27:41Right?
00:27:41Shut up.
00:27:42You disgusting
00:27:44old fucking hicks.
00:27:46Or I'll call the cops
00:27:46as if now you're fired.
00:27:49So this is trespassing.
00:27:51Tom,
00:27:51you need to tell
00:27:53the assembly line supers
00:27:54about the maintenance.
00:27:56If something happens
00:27:57to one of these machines,
00:27:58it's gonna cost Webster millions.
00:27:59And it's a safety hazard.
00:28:01I do not give a fuck
00:28:02about your experience.
00:28:04That is all subjective bullshit.
00:28:06We have the cold,
00:28:07hard facts
00:28:08right here.
00:28:08Our new AI detection system
00:28:11will be fully operational
00:28:12in a few short days.
00:28:14You really think
00:28:14it can't handle
00:28:15a few finicky machines?
00:28:17It'll have them
00:28:17back in tip-top shape
00:28:19before you old schmucks
00:28:20need to get your gloves on.
00:28:22Now hurry up and scram
00:28:23or you can forget
00:28:25about your final
00:28:26fucking paycheck.
00:28:32It's all right.
00:28:33It's all right.
00:28:33Let it go, okay?
00:28:34Look, you warned him plenty
00:28:35about the assembly line, huh?
00:28:37It's his own fault now
00:28:38if you won't listen.
00:28:40Come on, fellas.
00:28:41Let's go.
00:28:41Let's get out of here.
00:28:42Guy's a creep.
00:28:44What do you mean
00:28:44you can't fix it?
00:28:46I pay you millions
00:28:46of dollars for what?
00:28:48Mach 15 is on the line
00:28:49and if you can't fix it...
00:28:50Miss Wolf, Miss Wolf.
00:28:51Can't you see
00:28:52that I'm on the phone?
00:28:53Webster Motors
00:28:53just fired that old car mechanic.
00:28:55You told me
00:28:55to keep an eye on.
00:28:57I'll call you back.
00:28:59They fired Hank Walker?
00:29:02Evelyn, I need you
00:29:03to find him.
00:29:04Our CNC mills
00:29:05just suffered a critical error
00:29:06and he's the only one
00:29:07that can fix it.
00:29:07Make sure he gets here, okay?
00:29:09We need him.
00:29:10Got it, boss.
00:29:10I'll offer him a job.
00:29:12What's the pay ceiling?
00:29:14There's no ceiling.
00:29:15We're paying him
00:29:16whatever he wants.
00:29:18I'll have you, Hank.
00:29:20Hey, I'll catch up
00:29:21with you, Hank.
00:29:24Hi, I'm looking
00:29:25for a Mr. Walker.
00:29:26Oh, Hank?
00:29:27Yeah, he just missed him.
00:29:28He went to go see his daughter.
00:29:32Get him back!
00:29:33Grandpa, I missed you so much.
00:29:40I didn't even get to
00:29:41play with you all up.
00:29:43Oh, holy...
00:29:44I know, kiddo.
00:29:45Your grandpa was busy at work.
00:29:47But I'm going to have
00:29:48a lot more time now.
00:29:49I can come over every day
00:29:50if you want.
00:29:51Yeah.
00:29:51Yeah?
00:29:53Ah!
00:29:54Oh, you're getting strong.
00:29:55Dad,
00:29:56shouldn't you be at work?
00:29:58I'm actually
00:29:59not going to be
00:30:00working there anymore.
00:30:01Webster
00:30:02laid me off.
00:30:03You got fired?
00:30:06Fuck.
00:30:08What are we going to do
00:30:08about the mortgage now?
00:30:10Mortgage?
00:30:11What are you talking about?
00:30:12The mortgage for this house,
00:30:13you stupid old fuck.
00:30:15Hannah and I
00:30:15have been using your paycheck
00:30:16to pay off the mortgage.
00:30:17What are we going to do now?
00:30:18They're going to foreclose on us.
00:30:20Jesse,
00:30:21I've been giving you
00:30:22my paycheck
00:30:22since you and Helen
00:30:24got married.
00:30:24Why isn't the mortgage
00:30:25paid off yet?
00:30:26Because a whole year's
00:30:28worth of your salary
00:30:29didn't even last me
00:30:30a single night in Vegas.
00:30:32So you were gambling it.
00:30:34I bust my back
00:30:3510 hours a day
00:30:37and what,
00:30:37you gambled it all away
00:30:38in one night
00:30:39on craps?
00:30:40Poker?
00:30:41I can't believe you two.
00:30:42Alright,
00:30:43I've given everything
00:30:44for you guys.
00:30:44I stopped drinking coffee
00:30:46for you, alright?
00:30:47I barely scrape by
00:30:49on $300 a month.
00:30:50And you flush it
00:30:51down the drain
00:30:51gambling?
00:30:54Look, old man,
00:30:54I don't care.
00:30:56But Helen and I
00:30:56need the money
00:30:57to pay off the mortgage.
00:30:59And until you get
00:30:59another job,
00:31:00I want you to stay away
00:31:01from Audrey.
00:31:03Oh, Grandpa!
00:31:06What's coming into you,
00:31:07Jesse?
00:31:09I'm near retirement,
00:31:10okay?
00:31:12What's an old man
00:31:12like me supposed to do?
00:31:15You and Helen
00:31:16and little Audrey,
00:31:17you guys are all
00:31:17that I have.
00:31:18I just want to see
00:31:19this little girl
00:31:20grow up, okay?
00:31:22Please.
00:31:22I already lost my wife.
00:31:25Don't talk about my mom.
00:31:27If you weren't so stubborn,
00:31:28if you would have just
00:31:29left Detroit
00:31:30when you had the chance,
00:31:31she would have had
00:31:31better insurance coverage
00:31:32and not die.
00:31:35I would be in a better
00:31:36place, too.
00:31:37And now we're all
00:31:38stuck in this
00:31:38hellhole
00:31:40because of you.
00:31:42You're useless.
00:31:46My buddy Tom Norris
00:31:47got promoted
00:31:48to senior engineer
00:31:49in a year.
00:31:50You've been there
00:31:50for decades.
00:31:52And you're still
00:31:52just some low-level
00:31:53mechanic.
00:31:55Now get out
00:31:56and stay away
00:31:57from Audrey.
00:32:00You want to see
00:32:01Audrey again?
00:32:03Who brings
00:32:03a nice,
00:32:04fat paycheck?
00:32:06Jesse's great.
00:32:07Got a job.
00:32:08You owe that to us.
00:32:09Now go dumpster dive
00:32:10if you have to.
00:32:11Grandpa!
00:32:13Grandpa!
00:32:15Oh, Grandpa!
00:32:17I just didn't
00:32:19want to give up
00:32:19on my city.
00:32:20Is that
00:32:20so wrong?
00:32:25Oh, look at
00:32:26that stinky hobo.
00:32:28Let's cross the street
00:32:28before he gets
00:32:29all his germs on us.
00:32:39Webster still hasn't
00:32:40given us our last
00:32:41paycheck.
00:32:42And I haven't eaten
00:32:43since last night.
00:32:55Guess this will
00:32:55have to be my dinner.
00:32:56Holy shit.
00:33:06Hank Walker.
00:33:07The rock star
00:33:08engineer behind
00:33:09our 1987 Webster
00:33:11Corsair.
00:33:12What are you doing?
00:33:13Eating out of a dumpster.
00:33:15Tom, you know
00:33:15this guy.
00:33:16Yeah.
00:33:17Fired him yesterday.
00:33:19He's a piece of shit
00:33:19mechanic who wouldn't
00:33:20stop going on about,
00:33:21oh, the assembly line's
00:33:23going to explode.
00:33:24So I got rid of him.
00:33:26It's no laughing matter,
00:33:27Tom.
00:33:28I'm serious.
00:33:29If you're not careful,
00:33:29that whole assembly line
00:33:31is going to malfunction.
00:33:32Oh, fuck, man.
00:33:33Still stuck on that?
00:33:35That is bullshit.
00:33:37Hank Walker,
00:33:38they may have kept you
00:33:39around for 40 years
00:33:40because they're dumb,
00:33:41but I know
00:33:42you're nothing special.
00:33:43If you were anything like me,
00:33:44you'd at least be a manager.
00:33:46Well, they did ask me,
00:33:48but I turned him down
00:33:49because I want to work
00:33:51with cars.
00:33:52That's what I do best.
00:33:53And I don't need
00:33:54some empty title.
00:33:55But Tom,
00:33:56you have got to listen
00:33:57to me, okay?
00:33:58Have your guys watch the line.
00:33:59Otherwise,
00:34:00it's going to cost
00:34:00Webster millions.
00:34:01What a joke!
00:34:03I can't with you.
00:34:05Look,
00:34:06this is our newest software.
00:34:08All the lights are green.
00:34:09Green means good.
00:34:12See?
00:34:12Nothing can possibly go wrong.
00:34:15Warning.
00:34:16Malfunction detected.
00:34:18Initiating emergency
00:34:19stop protocol.
00:34:22No way this bastard
00:34:24got it right.
00:34:26What the hell happened here?
00:34:28The machine!
00:34:29It's smoking!
00:34:30I don't know.
00:34:30It shouldn't be doing that.
00:34:32We're following
00:34:33the exact same procedures
00:34:34we've always done.
00:34:35Well, it is.
00:34:36Look at it.
00:34:37If this machine goes down,
00:34:39we're going to have to
00:34:40shut down the whole plant.
00:34:41We're going to lose
00:34:42millions of dollars.
00:34:45Norris,
00:34:45I don't care what you do.
00:34:47Fix it
00:34:47by the end of the day
00:34:49or you're done!
00:34:55What are you just
00:34:55standing there for?
00:34:56Fix it!
00:34:58Um,
00:34:58well, Tom,
00:34:59the thing is,
00:35:00we don't know what the problem is.
00:35:01We don't know what's wrong.
00:35:02What do you mean?
00:35:03Didn't you go to college
00:35:04for this fucking shit?
00:35:05We just used to do
00:35:06what the older guys
00:35:07and Hank would do.
00:35:08They would diagnose it
00:35:09and they would solve it.
00:35:11Fuck!
00:35:12I'm so fucking sick
00:35:13of this fucking Hank guy.
00:35:15What do you want me to do?
00:35:17You want me to go back
00:35:18and bring back
00:35:18those old fossils
00:35:19that I just fucking fired?
00:35:21Fuck off!
00:35:22This whole plant
00:35:23isn't going to suddenly
00:35:24cease to function
00:35:25because a few wrinkly
00:35:26old farts
00:35:27got laid off.
00:35:28That's bullshit!
00:35:29Now fucking fix it!
00:35:30Faster!
00:35:31Miss Wolfe,
00:35:35I just don't see
00:35:36why we need
00:35:37a mechanic like Hank Walker
00:35:38right now.
00:35:39Don't we already have
00:35:40an expert from Apex AI
00:35:41working on the CNC machine mill?
00:35:43We already lost
00:35:44one full production line.
00:35:45If we lose another,
00:35:46that could mean
00:35:46hundreds of millions
00:35:48of dollars
00:35:48of loss and profits.
00:35:50Look,
00:35:50you keep an eye on the factory
00:35:51and I will go find Hank
00:35:52because he's the only one
00:35:53I trust to fix this.
00:35:54There will never be
00:35:55a replacement
00:35:56for good,
00:35:57old-fashioned
00:35:58human ingenuity.
00:35:59Machines and humans
00:36:00can work together
00:36:01to create
00:36:01the most efficient outcome.
00:36:03But a machine
00:36:04will never replace a human.
00:36:15Getting scrapped, sir?
00:36:16You know it.
00:36:18We still have
00:36:18a lot of material
00:36:20that we need to get rid of.
00:36:21If you can carry it,
00:36:22it's all yours.
00:36:25Sir, there must be
00:36:26something you can do.
00:36:27We need to fix this now.
00:36:28Well, luckily,
00:36:29you came to the right place.
00:36:30I mean,
00:36:30we here at Apex AI
00:36:31know exactly
00:36:32what we're doing.
00:36:33We can handle stuff
00:36:34like this in our sleep.
00:36:35So we're just gonna
00:36:36have our diagnostics
00:36:37run on it,
00:36:38figure out a problem,
00:36:39and boom,
00:36:40Bob's your uncle.
00:36:41So this is Apex AI's
00:36:43new detection software?
00:36:44It looks brilliant.
00:36:47Jesus lady.
00:36:48I mean,
00:36:49what did you do
00:36:50to this thing?
00:36:50This is a critical failure.
00:36:52Is there any way
00:36:53you can get it fixed
00:36:53by the end of the day?
00:36:54We need to have
00:36:55production back on schedule
00:36:56or my boss
00:36:57is gonna kill me.
00:36:57I know that machine.
00:36:59The reading is off
00:37:00simply because the sensor
00:37:01skips without a manual check.
00:37:03I mean,
00:37:03this is not a job
00:37:04that you can finish in a day,
00:37:05okay?
00:37:05I mean,
00:37:05this is gonna take like a week.
00:37:07We don't have a week.
00:37:08We have a client waiting on us.
00:37:09We have to get these parts
00:37:10machined now.
00:37:11Is there anything else
00:37:12you can do,
00:37:13please?
00:37:14I mean,
00:37:16we might have a solution.
00:37:17It's just the,
00:37:18it's the pay
00:37:19that you're offering though.
00:37:20$2,000 for an
00:37:21eight-hour workday?
00:37:22Then,
00:37:23it just needs a reset.
00:37:25They're asking for even more.
00:37:27Ah,
00:37:27Mr. Pierre,
00:37:29Mr. Esteban,
00:37:30money is not an issue.
00:37:31I will give you
00:37:31two million each
00:37:32for your work here today.
00:37:33And if all goes well,
00:37:35there'll be a little bonus
00:37:36in it for you both as well.
00:37:37Okay.
00:37:38All right,
00:37:38don't worry about it,
00:37:38good looking.
00:37:39All right,
00:37:39fixing machines,
00:37:40that's our job.
00:37:41It's a very tough
00:37:42and thankless
00:37:43and very,
00:37:44very difficult job,
00:37:45but we'll get it up
00:37:46and run it for you.
00:37:47I can't believe
00:37:48they just scammed
00:37:49that poor girl.
00:37:50And then you're gonna
00:37:51twist it the other way?
00:37:52Get in there.
00:37:54See?
00:37:54Our new AI tool
00:37:55has a solution
00:37:56for everything.
00:37:57Whoa!
00:38:00Well,
00:38:01step 37,
00:38:02that's what it said.
00:38:03Jeez,
00:38:04this isn't ever happened
00:38:05when Hank was around.
00:38:06Shut up!
00:38:07Did I really fuck up?
00:38:08By firing those old timers,
00:38:10I'm not gonna have
00:38:11to bring Hank
00:38:11back on board,
00:38:12am I?
00:38:15What?
00:38:16Apex AI's tech experts
00:38:18are over at Mach 15?
00:38:20Oh, perfect.
00:38:21Those guys are
00:38:22a golden ticket
00:38:22to fixing this machine.
00:38:24I'll head over right now.
00:38:25No!
00:38:26All righty.
00:38:33Fire it up.
00:38:37No!
00:38:39Not yet.
00:38:42You can't.
00:38:43You gotta reset
00:38:44the machine first.
00:38:45Otherwise,
00:38:45you'll be operating
00:38:46under the faulty presets.
00:38:48You're leading this machine
00:38:49down a one-way path
00:38:51with a catastrophic failure.
00:38:52Okay,
00:38:53I'm sorry.
00:38:53Who the fuck
00:38:54is this guy?
00:38:55Go back,
00:38:55get your scrap,
00:38:56get out of here.
00:38:57Okay,
00:38:57you're distracting us
00:38:59from this
00:38:59billion-dollar machine here.
00:39:01It's an easy fix.
00:39:03But I bet you two
00:39:04knew that,
00:39:05didn't you?
00:39:05You talked it up to her
00:39:06so you could get
00:39:07that extra pay.
00:39:09What are you talking about?
00:39:10Wow.
00:39:10You know what,
00:39:10Miss Evelyn,
00:39:11can you get your guys
00:39:12to get him out of here?
00:39:13Okay,
00:39:13he's distracting us
00:39:14from working.
00:39:15Sir,
00:39:16I'm gonna have to ask you
00:39:17to step back, please.
00:39:17We have plenty of scrap metal
00:39:19and I'd be happy
00:39:19to help you get it.
00:39:20Miss,
00:39:20miss,
00:39:21forget the scrap metal.
00:39:22If you give me
00:39:22ten minutes
00:39:23with this machine,
00:39:24I will tell you
00:39:24exactly what's wrong
00:39:25with it.
00:39:26And I'll fix it
00:39:27for you,
00:39:28free of charge.
00:39:29Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:39:30Okay,
00:39:30so you're saying
00:39:31you can fix this
00:39:32in ten minutes.
00:39:33We're two of the best
00:39:34mechanics in the world
00:39:35armed with a brand
00:39:35spanking new
00:39:36AI detection system.
00:39:37Now,
00:39:37if we can't pull this
00:39:38off in ten minutes,
00:39:39what's a scruffy
00:39:40old fart like you
00:39:40gonna do?
00:39:41You may have
00:39:42your fancy AI,
00:39:44but these machines,
00:39:45they were built
00:39:45by people
00:39:46and they're meant
00:39:47to be maintenanced
00:39:48by people.
00:39:49I've been in this
00:39:49industry for 40 years.
00:39:51Trust me,
00:39:51I know what I'm
00:39:52talking about.
00:39:52You need somebody
00:39:54like Hank Walker.
00:39:55Miss Wolfe said
00:39:55he's a genius
00:39:56car mechanic
00:39:57and he wouldn't
00:39:57know how to fix this.
00:40:03That's me.
00:40:11Breaking news.
00:40:13A Webster motor car
00:40:14with bulky brakes
00:40:14caused a deadly explosion,
00:40:16killing three college
00:40:17students.
00:40:18As the company's silence
00:40:19raises questions
00:40:19about accountability,
00:40:21authorities are
00:40:21investigating.
00:40:22God damn it!
00:40:24Do you see this?
00:40:25They're calling our car
00:40:26a burning coffin.
00:40:27They act like we killed
00:40:28those kids ourselves.
00:40:30We need to figure out
00:40:30why the door jammed
00:40:31or Webster's going
00:40:32belly under.
00:40:33Hear you,
00:40:33but we've already dropped
00:40:34a hundred K on diagnostic
00:40:36tests alone
00:40:36and nothing,
00:40:38not a...
00:40:38I don't want to hear
00:40:39your excuses.
00:40:40You're a goddamn
00:40:41Ivy League graduate.
00:40:42I pay you $200,000 a year,
00:40:44either figure it out
00:40:45or find a new job.
00:40:47And what the hell
00:40:48do you think
00:40:48you're doing?
00:40:50Tinkering around.
00:40:51We have to run
00:40:51a whole AI diagnostic
00:40:53system and you're
00:40:53over here fiddling.
00:40:55With all due respect,
00:40:56Mr. Russell,
00:40:58I know the Webster Corsair,
00:40:59like the back of my hand.
00:41:00I designed this car
00:41:01back in the day.
00:41:02I'll figure out
00:41:02what's wrong with it.
00:41:03We have a million dollar
00:41:04AI diagnosis
00:41:05and we can't turn up
00:41:06anything,
00:41:07but you're going to
00:41:07figure it out
00:41:08with a $5 wrench?
00:41:09Well,
00:41:10fancy gadgets
00:41:11and high-minded degrees
00:41:13can be important,
00:41:14but sometimes
00:41:15what you need
00:41:15is plain old experience.
00:41:16You know what?
00:41:17Go ahead.
00:41:18I got nothing to lose,
00:41:19but if anything goes wrong,
00:41:20it's on your ass.
00:41:21Don't worry.
00:41:22I won't mess this up.
00:41:24Let's go.
00:41:24Found it.
00:41:43See that?
00:41:44From a shirt.
00:41:45Our owner must have
00:41:46made a legal modification,
00:41:48snagged it on a thread
00:41:49during the installation,
00:41:50and jammed the latch
00:41:51during impact.
00:41:52Webster's not at fault.
00:41:53You saved the company
00:41:55a few million, buddy.
00:41:56Let's go show the boss.
00:41:57You are embarrassing me
00:41:58and you're embarrassing yourself.
00:42:00I think I found the problem.
00:42:04Ah, you old son of a bitch.
00:42:06You did it.
00:42:07All right,
00:42:07I'm going to go to the press
00:42:08and tell the board
00:42:09all the good news.
00:42:10You're a hero at Webster Motor.
00:42:17Attention, everyone.
00:42:18This concludes today's shift.
00:42:20Please shut down your stations
00:42:21and clock out.
00:42:22Drive safe,
00:42:23and we'll see you tomorrow.
00:42:30Oh, Mr. Walker.
00:42:32Can I have a word?
00:42:33Oh.
00:42:34Of course.
00:42:42Um,
00:42:43this is a car my nephew
00:42:45got from his grandmother.
00:42:46It's a collector's item,
00:42:48which means it's one of a kind,
00:42:50and you're the only one
00:42:50I trust to fix it.
00:42:51It's funny,
00:42:52last week it was a plane,
00:42:54this week it's a car.
00:42:56Your nephew sure likes
00:42:57to break things, huh?
00:42:58They're just messy,
00:42:59teenagers.
00:43:00Tell me about it.
00:43:01My daughter was the same way.
00:43:03I can have it back to you tomorrow.
00:43:04Great.
00:43:06What's your payment?
00:43:07$100,000.
00:43:10Miss Wolf,
00:43:11it's an easy fix.
00:43:13You don't have to pay me.
00:43:15Good to see you.
00:43:16Oh,
00:43:17Hank, wait.
00:43:21Hank,
00:43:21wait.
00:43:22I'll be straight with you.
00:43:27Okay,
00:43:27you've been at Webster
00:43:28for 40 years.
00:43:29You know cars.
00:43:31You're one of the best engineers
00:43:32in the world.
00:43:33But they treat you worse
00:43:34than the mechanics
00:43:34that work for an hourly rate.
00:43:37Why don't you come work for me
00:43:38at Mach 15?
00:43:40We're developing a new supercar.
00:43:42Silver Link's Model A,
00:43:43and I want you to be in charge.
00:43:44The starting pay is
00:43:45$10 million.
00:43:48That's a lot of money.
00:43:50But you said so yourself,
00:43:51Miss Wolf.
00:43:52I've been with
00:43:54Webster Motors
00:43:54for 40 years,
00:43:56and any time I have remaining,
00:43:58I just assume it be with them.
00:44:00Old mucks like me,
00:44:01we're the backbone
00:44:02of Detroit's industry.
00:44:04You got a good job
00:44:04on your hands,
00:44:05and you should
00:44:06give it to a youngster.
00:44:08As for me,
00:44:09just stick to toy cars.
00:44:16Hey, look who's early.
00:44:19Hey, how you doing, man?
00:44:20Good.
00:44:20Oh, hey.
00:44:22Here comes Tom Norris.
00:44:25You reckon he's here
00:44:25to give us a bonus?
00:44:27I doubt it.
00:44:29Move.
00:44:30Move, move, move, move.
00:44:31All right, all right, all right.
00:44:32Hey, listen up.
00:44:33I have an announcement.
00:44:35Webster Motors
00:44:36has gone through
00:44:36a change of hands.
00:44:38We've been purchased
00:44:39by Tesalux.
00:44:40Yes, that Tesalux,
00:44:45the EV car company.
00:44:46Sir, a big man upstairs,
00:44:48now some guy named Elon.
00:44:51Tesalux is a tech company.
00:44:53Big emphasis on tech.
00:44:55So all you boomers,
00:44:57you're fired.
00:45:00You're fired.
00:45:01Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:45:06We're all fired.
00:45:08That can't be right.
00:45:09Oh, you need me to spell it out for you?
00:45:11Fine.
00:45:13Webster Motors has purchased
00:45:14a cutting-edge AI detection system
00:45:16from Apex AI
00:45:18for over 10 billion.
00:45:20And let me tell you,
00:45:22this software makes all of you
00:45:23has-been boomers
00:45:24look like a bunch
00:45:25of fucking amateurs.
00:45:26It'll do more
00:45:27for this company
00:45:28in 10 minutes
00:45:29than you could do
00:45:30in 10 years.
00:45:32So, go home.
00:45:34Wait for death
00:45:35to come knocking.
00:45:37Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:45:37Now, hold on.
00:45:38That ain't right.
00:45:40Look, we are the backbone
00:45:41of Webster Motors, right?
00:45:43We built this company
00:45:44up from the ground.
00:45:46Hell, some of us
00:45:46were here before Webster was.
00:45:48You can't just let us go.
00:45:49That is...
00:45:49That is workplace discrimination.
00:45:51Right, boys?
00:45:52Yeah, right.
00:45:53We're gonna fucking sue you.
00:45:54Well, it's not ageism
00:45:55if you're just bad.
00:45:57We're a tech company now.
00:45:59We need computer people
00:46:00who write AI
00:46:01that does what you do,
00:46:03but they do it better
00:46:04and faster.
00:46:05Face it.
00:46:06This is the 21st century.
00:46:08Everything is fast
00:46:09and digital.
00:46:10It's time for you
00:46:11washed-up old farts
00:46:12to pack your little bags
00:46:14and fuck off.
00:46:15Because like it or not,
00:46:16you've been replaced.
00:46:17I might not know
00:46:18anything about AI.
00:46:20But I do know one thing.
00:46:22These machines here,
00:46:23they're finicky.
00:46:24And unless real people
00:46:25are monitoring
00:46:26the assembly line
00:46:27at all times,
00:46:28it's only a matter of time
00:46:29before something goes boom.
00:46:31And all production stops.
00:46:33That's right.
00:46:34What do you mean,
00:46:36everything goes boom?
00:46:37I've worked here
00:46:38for 40 years.
00:46:40I know these machines.
00:46:41They need to be checked on
00:46:42and resurviced.
00:46:43Otherwise,
00:46:44you're going to lose billion.
00:46:46Oh, okay.
00:46:48So,
00:46:48so,
00:46:48so you're saying
00:46:50the reason
00:46:51that I can't fire you
00:46:52old farts
00:46:53is because I need someone
00:46:54to watch the machine
00:46:55all day
00:46:56or it's going to go boom?
00:46:57That's right.
00:46:57And you better make sure
00:46:58they have the experience
00:46:59to know what they're looking for.
00:47:00Oh,
00:47:01holy fuck.
00:47:03You're a real fucking
00:47:04shameless one,
00:47:05you know?
00:47:05I know you won't be able
00:47:06to get another job,
00:47:07but that doesn't mean
00:47:08you can make shit up either.
00:47:09I'm not making anything up.
00:47:11I'm telling you how it is
00:47:13based on my experience.
00:47:14All right.
00:47:15Old man,
00:47:15I gotta go,
00:47:16all right?
00:47:17But don't think
00:47:18you're anything special
00:47:19because of yesterday.
00:47:20I downloaded the source code
00:47:21from the diagnostic test myself
00:47:22and that car
00:47:23was perfectly fine.
00:47:25You lucked out
00:47:26with that screw.
00:47:27So all you need to do
00:47:28is go back
00:47:29and rot
00:47:30in hospice.
00:47:32No, no, no,
00:47:32how dare you?
00:47:34How dare you?
00:47:34We built this city
00:47:35with our own hands.
00:47:36We are the ones
00:47:37that brought industry
00:47:38to Detroit.
00:47:39We did all that hard labor
00:47:40so kids like you
00:47:42could go run off
00:47:42to college.
00:47:43And now this is
00:47:44how you're gonna treat us?
00:47:45Shut up!
00:47:45Right?
00:47:46Shut up!
00:47:47You disgusting
00:47:48old fucking hicks.
00:47:50Or I'll call the cops
00:47:51as in now you're fired.
00:47:53So this is trespassing.
00:47:55Tom,
00:47:57you need to tell
00:47:58the assembly line supers
00:47:59about the maintenance.
00:48:00If something happens
00:48:01to one of these machines,
00:48:02it's gonna cost
00:48:03Webster millions.
00:48:04And it's a safety hazard.
00:48:06I do not give a fuck
00:48:07about your experience.
00:48:08That is all
00:48:09subjective bullshit.
00:48:11We have the cold,
00:48:11hard facts
00:48:12right here.
00:48:13Our new AI detection system
00:48:15will be fully operational
00:48:16in a few short days.
00:48:18You really think
00:48:19it can't handle
00:48:19a few finicky machines?
00:48:21It'll have them
00:48:22back in tip-top shape
00:48:23before you old schmucks
00:48:24need to get your gloves on.
00:48:26Now hurry up
00:48:27and scram
00:48:28or you can forget
00:48:30about your final
00:48:31fucking paychecks.
00:48:36It's all right.
00:48:37It's all right.
00:48:38Let it go, okay?
00:48:38Look, you warned him
00:48:39plenty about the
00:48:40assembly line, huh?
00:48:41It's his own fault now
00:48:42if you won't listen.
00:48:45Come on, fellas.
00:48:45Let's go.
00:48:46Let's get out of here.
00:48:47Guy's a creep.
00:48:48What do you mean
00:48:49you can't fix it?
00:48:50I pay you millions
00:48:51of dollars for what?
00:48:53Mach 15 is on the line
00:48:54and if you can't fix it...
00:48:55Miss Wolfe, Miss Wolfe,
00:48:56can't you see
00:48:56that I'm on the phone?
00:48:57Webster Motors
00:48:58just fired that
00:48:58old car mechanic
00:48:59who told me
00:48:59to keep an eye on.
00:49:02I'll call you back.
00:49:03They fired Hank Walker?
00:49:06Evelyn, I need you
00:49:07to find him.
00:49:08Our CNC mills
00:49:09just suffered
00:49:09a critical error
00:49:10and he's the only one
00:49:11that can fix it.
00:49:12Make sure he gets here,
00:49:13okay?
00:49:13We need him.
00:49:14Got it, boss.
00:49:15I'll offer him a job
00:49:16with the pay ceiling.
00:49:18There's no ceiling.
00:49:19We're paying him
00:49:20whatever he wants.
00:49:23I'll have you.
00:49:24Hank.
00:49:25Hey, I'll catch up
00:49:25with you, Hank.
00:49:29Hi, I'm looking
00:49:29for a Mr. Walker.
00:49:31Oh, Hank?
00:49:32Yeah, he just missed him.
00:49:33He went to go
00:49:33see his daughter.
00:49:37Grandpa!
00:49:43Grandpa,
00:49:43I miss you so much
00:49:45I didn't even get
00:49:46to clear you all up
00:49:47for holy.
00:49:48I know, kiddo.
00:49:49Your grandpa
00:49:50was busy at work
00:49:51but I'm gonna have
00:49:52a lot more time now.
00:49:54I can come over
00:49:54every day if you want.
00:49:56Yeah?
00:49:58Oh, you're getting strong.
00:50:00Dad,
00:50:00shouldn't you be at work?
00:50:03I'm actually
00:50:04not gonna be
00:50:05working there anymore.
00:50:06Webster,
00:50:07lead me off.
00:50:08You got fired?
00:50:11Fuck.
00:50:12What are we gonna do
00:50:13about the mortgage now?
00:50:14Mortgage?
00:50:15What are you talking about?
00:50:16The mortgage for this house,
00:50:18you stupid old fuck.
00:50:19Hannah and I
00:50:20have been using
00:50:20your paycheck
00:50:21to pay off the mortgage.
00:50:22What are we gonna do now?
00:50:23They're gonna foreclose on us.
00:50:24Jesse,
00:50:25I've been giving you
00:50:26my paycheck
00:50:27since you and Helen
00:50:28got married.
00:50:29Why isn't the mortgage
00:50:30paid off yet?
00:50:31Because a whole year's worth
00:50:33of your salary
00:50:34didn't even last me
00:50:35a single night in Vegas.
00:50:36So you were gambling it.
00:50:39I bust my back
00:50:4010 hours a day
00:50:41and what,
00:50:42you gambled it all away
00:50:43in one night
00:50:43on craps?
00:50:44Poker?
00:50:45I can't believe you two.
00:50:47Alright,
00:50:47I've given everything
00:50:48for you guys.
00:50:49I stopped drinking coffee
00:50:50for you, alright?
00:50:51I barely scrape by
00:50:53on $300 a month
00:50:54and you flush it
00:50:55down the drain
00:50:56gambling?
00:50:58Look old man,
00:50:59I don't care
00:51:00but Helen and I
00:51:01need the money
00:51:02to pay off the mortgage.
00:51:03And until you get another job,
00:51:05I want you to stay away
00:51:06from Audrey.
00:51:06Oh, Grandpa!
00:51:10What's coming to you,
00:51:12Jessie?
00:51:13I'm near retirement,
00:51:14okay?
00:51:16What's an old man
00:51:17like me supposed to do?
00:51:19You and Helen
00:51:20and little Audrey,
00:51:21you guys are all
00:51:22that I have.
00:51:23I just want to see
00:51:24this little girl
00:51:24grow up, okay?
00:51:26Please.
00:51:27I already lost my wife.
00:51:29Don't talk about my mom.
00:51:31If you weren't so stubborn,
00:51:33if you would have just
00:51:33left Detroit
00:51:34when you had the chance,
00:51:35she would have had
00:51:36better insurance coverage
00:51:37and not die.
00:51:39I would be in a better place too.
00:51:42And now we're all stuck
00:51:42in this
00:51:43hell hole
00:51:45because of you.
00:51:48You're useless.
00:51:50My buddy Tom Norris
00:51:51got promoted
00:51:52to senior engineer
00:51:53in a year.
00:51:54You've been there
00:51:55for decades.
00:51:56And you're still
00:51:57just some low-level
00:51:58mechanic.
00:51:59Now get out.
00:52:01Now stay away
00:52:01from Audrey.
00:52:03Grandpa!
00:52:04Grandpa!
00:52:05You want to see Audrey again?
00:52:07Who brings a nice
00:52:08fat paycheck?
00:52:10Grandpa!
00:52:10Jesse's great.
00:52:11Got a job.
00:52:13You owe that to us.
00:52:14Now go dumpster dive
00:52:15if you have to.
00:52:15Grandpa!
00:52:17Grandpa!
00:52:20Grandpa!
00:52:21Grandpa!
00:52:22I just didn't want
00:52:23to give up on my city.
00:52:24Is that
00:52:24so wrong?
00:52:29Ew!
00:52:30Oh, look at that
00:52:31stinky hobo.
00:52:32Let's cross the street
00:52:33before he gets
00:52:33all his germs on us.
00:52:35What the fuck?
00:52:43Webster still hasn't
00:52:45given us our last paycheck.
00:52:46And I haven't eaten
00:52:47since last night.
00:52:48Guess this
00:53:00will have to be
00:53:00my dinner.
00:53:05Wha-
00:53:06Holy shit!
00:53:10Nick Walker!
00:53:12The rock star
00:53:13engineer behind
00:53:14our 1987
00:53:15Webster Corsair.
00:53:16What are you doing?
00:53:17Eating out of a dumpster.
00:53:19Tom, you know
00:53:20this guy.
00:53:21Yep.
00:53:22Fired him yesterday.
00:53:23He's a piece of
00:53:24shit mechanic
00:53:24who wouldn't stop
00:53:25going on about
00:53:26oh, the assembly line
00:53:27is going to explode.
00:53:28So I got rid of him.
00:53:30It's no laughing matter,
00:53:31Tom.
00:53:32I'm serious.
00:53:33If you're not careful,
00:53:34that whole assembly line
00:53:35is going to malfunction.
00:53:36Oh, fuck, man.
00:53:38Still stuck on that?
00:53:39That is bullshit.
00:53:41Hank Walker,
00:53:42they may have kept
00:53:43you around for 40 years
00:53:44because they're dumb.
00:53:45But I know
00:53:46you're nothing special.
00:53:48If you were anything like me,
00:53:49you'd at least be a manager.
00:53:50Well, they did ask me.
00:53:52But I turned them down
00:53:54because I want to work
00:53:55with cars.
00:53:56That's what I do best.
00:53:58And I don't need
00:53:58some empty title.
00:53:59But Tom,
00:54:00you have got to listen
00:54:01to me, okay?
00:54:02Have your guys
00:54:03watch the line.
00:54:04Otherwise,
00:54:04it's going to cost
00:54:05Webster millions.
00:54:06What a joke!
00:54:07I can't with you.
00:54:08Look,
00:54:10this is our newest software.
00:54:12All the lights
00:54:13are green.
00:54:14Green
00:54:15means good.
00:54:16See?
00:54:17Nothing can possibly
00:54:18go wrong.
00:54:20Warning,
00:54:21malfunction detected.
00:54:23Initiating emergency
00:54:24stop protocol.
00:54:27No way this bastard
00:54:28got it right.
00:54:31What the hell
00:54:32happened here?
00:54:32The machine!
00:54:33It's smoking!
00:54:34I don't know.
00:54:35It shouldn't be
00:54:36doing that.
00:54:37We're following
00:54:37the exact same
00:54:38procedures we've
00:54:39always done.
00:54:40Well, it is.
00:54:41Look at it.
00:54:42If this machine
00:54:43goes down,
00:54:44we're going to have
00:54:44to shut down
00:54:44the whole plant.
00:54:46We're going to lose
00:54:46millions of dollars.
00:54:49Norris,
00:54:50I don't care what you do.
00:54:51Fix it
00:54:52by the end of the day
00:54:53or you're done.
00:54:59What are you
00:55:00just standing there
00:55:00for?
00:55:01Fix it!
00:55:02Um,
00:55:03well, Tom,
00:55:04the thing is,
00:55:04we don't know
00:55:04what the problem
00:55:05is.
00:55:06We don't know
00:55:06what's wrong.
00:55:07What do you mean?
00:55:08Didn't you go to
00:55:08college for this
00:55:09fucking shit?
00:55:10We just used to
00:55:10do what the older
00:55:11guys and Hank
00:55:12would do.
00:55:13They would diagnose
00:55:13it and they
00:55:15would solve it.
00:55:15Fuck!
00:55:16I'm so fucking
00:55:17sick of this
00:55:18fucking Hank
00:55:19guy.
00:55:20What do you
00:55:21want me to do?
00:55:21You want me to
00:55:22go back and
00:55:22bring back those
00:55:23old fossils
00:55:24that I just
00:55:24fucking fired?
00:55:25Fuck off!
00:55:27This whole plant
00:55:27isn't going to
00:55:28suddenly cease to
00:55:29function because a
00:55:29few wrinkly old
00:55:31farts got laid
00:55:32off.
00:55:33That's bullshit!
00:55:33Now fucking
00:55:34fix it!
00:55:35Faster!
00:55:39Miss Wolfe,
00:55:40I just don't see
00:55:41why we need a
00:55:42mechanic like
00:55:42Hank Walker right
00:55:43now.
00:55:43Don't we already
00:55:44have an expert
00:55:45from Apex AI
00:55:45working on the
00:55:46CNC machine mill?
00:55:47We already lost
00:55:48one full production
00:55:50line.
00:55:50If we lose another,
00:55:50that could mean
00:55:51hundreds of millions
00:55:52of dollars of
00:55:53loss and profits.
00:55:54Look, you keep an eye
00:55:55on the factory and I
00:55:56will go find Hank
00:55:57because he's the only
00:55:57one I trust to fix
00:55:58this.
00:55:59There will never be a
00:56:00replacement for good
00:56:01old-fashioned human
00:56:03ingenuity.
00:56:03Machines and humans
00:56:04can work together to
00:56:06create the most
00:56:06efficient outcome.
00:56:08But a machine will
00:56:08never replace a human.
00:56:20Getting scrapped, sir?
00:56:21You know it.
00:56:22We still have a lot of
00:56:24material that we need
00:56:24to get rid of.
00:56:25If you can carry it,
00:56:26it's all yours.
00:56:29Sir, there must be
00:56:30something you can do.
00:56:31We need to fix this
00:56:32now.
00:56:32Well, luckily, you came
00:56:33to the right place.
00:56:34I mean, we here at Apex AI
00:56:36know exactly what we're
00:56:37doing.
00:56:38We can handle stuff like
00:56:39this in our sleep.
00:56:40So we're just going to
00:56:41have our diagnostics run
00:56:42on it, figure out a
00:56:43problem, and boom,
00:56:44Bob's rumble.
00:56:45So this is Apex AI's
00:56:47new detection software?
00:56:49It looks brilliant.
00:56:52Jesus, lady.
00:56:53I mean, what did you do
00:56:54to this thing?
00:56:55This is a critical failure.
00:56:56Is there any way you can
00:56:57get it fixed by the end
00:56:58of the day?
00:56:59We need to have
00:56:59production back on
00:57:00schedule or my boss
00:57:01is going to kill me.
00:57:02I know that machine.
00:57:04The reading is off simply
00:57:05because the sensor skips
00:57:06without a manual check.
00:57:08I mean, this is not a job
00:57:08that you can finish in a
00:57:09day, okay?
00:57:10I mean, this is going to
00:57:10take like a week.
00:57:11We don't have a week.
00:57:12We have a client waiting
00:57:13on us.
00:57:13We have to get these parts
00:57:14machined.
00:57:15Now, is there anything
00:57:16else you can do, please?
00:57:19I mean, we might have
00:57:21a solution.
00:57:22It's just the, it's the
00:57:23pay that you're offering
00:57:24though.
00:57:24$2,000 for an eight-hour
00:57:26workday?
00:57:26Then, yeah.
00:57:28It just needs a reset.
00:57:29They're asking for even
00:57:30more.
00:57:31Ah.
00:57:33Mr. Pierre, Mr. Espan,
00:57:34money is not an issue.
00:57:35I will give you $2 million
00:57:36each for your work here
00:57:38today, and if all goes
00:57:39well, there'll be a little
00:57:40bonus in it for you both
00:57:41as well.
00:57:41Okay.
00:57:42All right, don't worry
00:57:43about a good-looking.
00:57:44All right, fix the machine.
00:57:45That's our job.
00:57:46It's a very tough and
00:57:47thankless and very, very
00:57:48difficult job, but we'll get it
00:57:50up and running for you.
00:57:51I can't believe they just
00:57:53scammed that poor girl.
00:57:55And then you're going to twist
00:57:56it the other way?
00:57:57Get in there.
00:57:58See?
00:57:59Our new AI tool has a solution
00:58:01for everything.
00:58:02Whoa!
00:58:02Whoa!
00:58:02Whoa!
00:58:03Whoa!
00:58:03Whoa!
00:58:04Whoa!
00:58:04Whoa!
00:58:05Whoa!
00:58:05Whoa!
00:58:06Step 37, that's what it's
00:58:07that's what it said!
00:58:08Jeez, this isn't ever
00:58:09happening when Hank was
00:58:10around.
00:58:10Shut up!
00:58:11Do I really fuck up by firing
00:58:13those old-timers?
00:58:15I'm not going to have to
00:58:15bring Hank back on board,
00:58:16am I?
00:58:20What?
00:58:21Apex AI's tech experts
00:58:22are over at Mach 15?
00:58:24Oh, perfect.
00:58:25Those guys are a golden ticket
00:58:27to fixing this machine.
00:58:28I'll head over right now.
00:58:30All righty.
00:58:38Fire it up.
00:58:41No!
00:58:43Not yet.
00:58:46You can't.
00:58:47You got to reset the machine
00:58:49first.
00:58:50Otherwise, you'll be operating
00:58:51under the faulty presets.
00:58:53You're leading this machine
00:58:54down a one-way path
00:58:55to catastrophic failure.
00:58:57Okay, I'm sorry.
00:58:57Who the fuck is this guy?
00:58:59Go back, get your scrap,
00:59:00get out of here.
00:59:01Okay, you're distracting us
00:59:03from this billion-dollar
00:59:05machine here.
00:59:06It's an easy fix.
00:59:08But I bet you two knew
00:59:09that, didn't you?
00:59:09You talked it up to her
00:59:11so you could get
00:59:12that extra pay.
00:59:13What are you talking about?
00:59:14Wow.
00:59:15You know what, Miss Evelyn,
00:59:15can you get your guys
00:59:16to get him out of here?
00:59:17Okay, he's distracting us
00:59:19from working.
00:59:20Sir, I'm going to have
00:59:21to ask you to step back,
00:59:22please.
00:59:22We have plenty of scrap metal
00:59:23and I'd be happy
00:59:24to help you get it.
00:59:25Miss, miss, forget
00:59:26the scrap metal.
00:59:26If you give me 10 minutes
00:59:28with this machine,
00:59:28I will tell you
00:59:29exactly what's wrong with it
00:59:30and I'll fix it for you,
00:59:32free of charge.
00:59:34Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:59:34Okay, so you're saying
00:59:36you can fix this
00:59:36in 10 minutes.
00:59:37We're two of the best
00:59:38mechanics in the world
00:59:39armed with a brand
00:59:40spanking new
00:59:41AI detection system.
00:59:42Now, if we can't
00:59:42pull this off
00:59:43in 10 minutes,
00:59:43what's a scruffy old fart
00:59:45like you going to do?
00:59:46You may have
00:59:46your fancy AI,
00:59:48but these machines,
00:59:49they were built by people
00:59:51and they're meant
00:59:51to be maintenanced
00:59:52by people.
00:59:53I've been in this industry
00:59:54for 40 years.
00:59:55Trust me,
00:59:56I know what I'm talking about.
00:59:57You need somebody
00:59:58like Hank Walker.
00:59:59Miss Wolfe said
01:00:00he's a genius car mechanic
01:00:01and he wouldn't know
01:00:02how to fix this.
01:00:07That's me.
01:00:08Breaking news.
01:00:17A Webster motor car
01:00:18with faulty brakes
01:00:19caused a deadly explosion,
01:00:20killing three college students.
01:00:22As the company's silence
01:00:23raises questions
01:00:24about accountability,
01:00:25authorities are investigating.
01:00:27God damn it!
01:00:28Do you see this?
01:00:30They're calling our car
01:00:30a burning coffin.
01:00:32They act like we killed
01:00:33those kids ourselves.
01:00:34We need to figure out
01:00:35why the door jammed
01:00:36or Webster's going belly under.
01:00:37Hear you,
01:00:38but we've already dropped
01:00:38a hundred K
01:00:39on diagnostic tests alone
01:00:41and nothing not up.
01:00:43I don't want to hear
01:00:43your excuses.
01:00:44You're a goddamn
01:00:45Ivy League graduate.
01:00:47I pay you $200,000 a year,
01:00:49either figure it out
01:00:50or find a new job.
01:00:52And what the hell
01:00:52do you think you're doing?
01:00:54Tinkering around.
01:00:55We have to run
01:00:56a whole AI diagnostic system
01:00:58and you're over here fiddling.
01:01:00With all due respect,
01:01:01Mr. Russell,
01:01:02I know the Webster Corsair
01:01:03like the back of my hand.
01:01:05I designed this car
01:01:06back in the day.
01:01:06I'll figure out
01:01:07what's wrong with it.
01:01:08We have a million dollar
01:01:09AI diagnosis
01:01:10who can't turn up anything.
01:01:11But you're going to figure it out
01:01:12with a $5 wrench?
01:01:14Well, fancy gadgets
01:01:15and high-minded degrees
01:01:17can be important,
01:01:18but sometimes what you need
01:01:20is plain old experience.
01:01:21You know what?
01:01:22Go ahead.
01:01:22I got nothing to lose.
01:01:23But if anything goes wrong,
01:01:24it's on your ass.
01:01:25Don't worry.
01:01:27I won't mess this up.
01:01:28Let's go.
01:01:29Found it.
01:01:47See that?
01:01:48From a shirt.
01:01:50Car owner must have made
01:01:51a legal modification,
01:01:52snagged it on a thread
01:01:53during the installation,
01:01:55and jammed the latch
01:01:55during impact.
01:01:57Webster's not at fault.
01:01:58You saved the company
01:01:59a few million, buddy.
01:02:01Let's go show the boss.
01:02:01You are embarrassing me
01:02:03and you're embarrassing yourself.
01:02:04I think I found the problem.
01:02:08Ah, you old son of a bitch.
01:02:10You did it.
01:02:11All right,
01:02:12I'm going to go to the press
01:02:13and tell the board
01:02:13all the good news.
01:02:15You're a hero,
01:02:16Webster Motor.
01:02:21Attention, everyone.
01:02:23This concludes today's shift.
01:02:25Please shut down your stations
01:02:26and clock out.
01:02:27Drive safe,
01:02:27and we'll see you tomorrow.
01:02:35Oh, Mr. Walker.
01:02:36Can I have a word?
01:02:37Oh, of course.
01:02:43Um, this is a car
01:02:49my nephew got
01:02:50from his grandmother.
01:02:51It's a collector's item,
01:02:53which means it's one of a kind,
01:02:54and you're the only one
01:02:55I trust to fix it.
01:02:56You know, it's funny.
01:02:56Last week it was a plane.
01:02:58This week it's a car.
01:03:00Your nephew sure likes
01:03:01to break things, huh?
01:03:03They're just messy, teenagers.
01:03:04Tell me about it.
01:03:06My daughter was the same way.
01:03:08I can have her back
01:03:08to you tomorrow.
01:03:10Great.
01:03:11Is your payment
01:03:11$100,000?
01:03:13Yes, Wolf.
01:03:16It's an easy fix.
01:03:17You don't have to pay me.
01:03:19Good to see you.
01:03:20Oh, Hank, wait.
01:03:25Hank, wait.
01:03:30I'll be straight with you.
01:03:31Okay, you've been at Webster
01:03:32for 40 years.
01:03:33You know cars.
01:03:35You're one of the best engineers
01:03:36in the world.
01:03:37But they treat you worse
01:03:38than the mechanics
01:03:39that work for an hourly rate.
01:03:40Why don't you come work
01:03:43for me at Mach 15?
01:03:45We're developing
01:03:45a new supercar.
01:03:46Silver Link's Model A
01:03:47and I want you
01:03:48to be in charge.
01:03:49The starting pay
01:03:49is $10 million.
01:03:52That's a lot of money.
01:03:54But you said so yourself,
01:03:55Miss Wolf.
01:03:56I've been with Webster Motors
01:03:59for 40 years
01:04:00and any time I have remaining,
01:04:02I just assume it be with them.
01:04:04Old mucks like me,
01:04:05we're the backbone
01:04:07of Detroit's industry.
01:04:08You got a good job
01:04:09on your hands
01:04:09and you should
01:04:10give it to a youngster.
01:04:12As for me,
01:04:14just stick to toy cars.
01:04:15Hey, look who's early.
01:04:23Hey, how you doing, man?
01:04:24Good.
01:04:25Oh, hey.
01:04:27Come sir, Tom Norris.
01:04:29You reckon he's here
01:04:30to give us a bonus?
01:04:31I doubt it.
01:04:33Move.
01:04:34Move, move, move, move.
01:04:36Hey, listen up.
01:04:38I have an announcement.
01:04:40Webster Motors
01:04:40has gone through
01:04:41a change of hands.
01:04:42We've been purchased
01:04:43by Tessalux.
01:04:48Yes, that Tessalux,
01:04:50the EV car company.
01:04:51Sir, a big man upstairs,
01:04:52now some guy named Elon.
01:04:55Tessalux is a tech company.
01:04:57Big emphasis on tech.
01:04:59So all you boomers,
01:05:01you're fired.
01:05:05You're fired.
01:05:07What?
01:05:08Wait, what?
01:05:08Wait, wait, wait, wait.
01:05:10We're all fired.
01:05:11That can't be right.
01:05:14Oh, you need me
01:05:15to spell it out for you?
01:05:16Fine.
01:05:17Webster Motors
01:05:18has purchased
01:05:18a cutting-edge AI
01:05:20detection system
01:05:21from Apex AI
01:05:22for over 10 billion.
01:05:24And let me tell you,
01:05:26this software
01:05:27makes all of you
01:05:28has-been boomers
01:05:28look like a bunch
01:05:29of fucking amateurs.
01:05:31It'll do more
01:05:32for this company
01:05:33in 10 minutes
01:05:34than you could do
01:05:35in 10 years.
01:05:36So, go home.
01:05:39Wait for death
01:05:39to come knocking.
01:05:41Now, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:05:42Now, hold on.
01:05:43That ain't right.
01:05:44Look, we are the backbone
01:05:46of Webster Motors, right?
01:05:48We built this company
01:05:49up from the ground.
01:05:50Hell, some of us
01:05:51were here before Webster was.
01:05:52You can't just let us go.
01:05:53That is workplace
01:05:55discrimination, right, boys?
01:05:56Yeah, right.
01:05:57We're gonna fucking sue you.
01:05:59Well, it's not ageism
01:06:00if you're just bad.
01:06:01We're a tech company now.
01:06:03We need computer people
01:06:05who write AI
01:06:05that does what you do,
01:06:07but they do it better
01:06:08and faster.
01:06:10Face it.
01:06:11This is the 21st century.
01:06:13Everything is fast
01:06:14and digital.
01:06:15It's time for you
01:06:16washed up old farts
01:06:17to pack your little bags
01:06:18and fuck off
01:06:20because like it or not,
01:06:21you've been replaced.
01:06:22I might not know
01:06:22anything about AI,
01:06:24but I do know one thing.
01:06:26These machines here,
01:06:27they're finicky,
01:06:28and unless real people
01:06:30are monitoring
01:06:30the assembly line
01:06:31at all times,
01:06:32it's only a matter of time
01:06:33before something goes boom
01:06:34and all production stops.
01:06:38That's right.
01:06:39What do you mean
01:06:40everything goes boom?
01:06:42I've worked here
01:06:43for 40 years.
01:06:44I know these machines.
01:06:46They need to be checked on
01:06:47and resurviced.
01:06:48Otherwise,
01:06:49you're gonna lose billions.
01:06:50Oh, okay.
01:06:52So you're saying
01:06:54the reason
01:06:55that I can't fire you
01:06:56old bucks
01:06:57is because I need someone
01:06:59to watch the machine
01:07:00all day
01:07:00or it's gonna go boom?
01:07:01That's right.
01:07:02And you better make sure
01:07:03they have the experience
01:07:04to know what
01:07:04they're looking for.
01:07:05Oh, holy fuck.
01:07:07You're a real fucking
01:07:08shameless one, you know.
01:07:10I know you won't be able
01:07:11to get another job,
01:07:12but that doesn't mean
01:07:12you can make shit up either.
01:07:14I'm not making anything up.
01:07:16I'm telling you how it is
01:07:17based on my experience.
01:07:18All right.
01:07:19Old man, I gotta go.
01:07:20All right?
01:07:21But don't think
01:07:22you're anything special
01:07:23because of yesterday.
01:07:24I downloaded the source code
01:07:25from the diagnostic test myself,
01:07:27and that car
01:07:28was perfectly fine.
01:07:30You lucked out
01:07:31with that screw.
01:07:32So all you need to do
01:07:33is go back
01:07:34and rot
01:07:35in hospice.
01:07:36No, no, no.
01:07:37How dare you?
01:07:38How dare you?
01:07:39We built this city
01:07:40with our own hands.
01:07:41We are the ones
01:07:42that brought industry
01:07:42to Detroit.
01:07:43Yeah.
01:07:44We did all that hard labor
01:07:45so kids like you
01:07:46could go run off
01:07:47to college.
01:07:48And now this is
01:07:48how you're gonna treat us?
01:07:49Shut up!
01:07:50Right?
01:07:50Shut up!
01:07:52You disgusting
01:07:53old fucking hicks.
01:07:54Or I'll call the cops.
01:07:56As of now,
01:07:57you're fired.
01:07:58So this is trespassing.
01:08:00Tom,
01:08:01you need to tell
01:08:02the assembly line supers
01:08:03about the maintenance.
01:08:05If something happens
01:08:06to one of these machines,
01:08:07it's gonna cost Webster millions.
01:08:08And it's a safety hazard.
01:08:10I do not give a fuck
01:08:11about your experience.
01:08:13That is all subjective bullshit.
01:08:15We have the cold,
01:08:16hard facts right here.
01:08:18Our new AI detection system
01:08:20will be fully operational
01:08:21in a few short days.
01:08:23You really think
01:08:23it can't handle
01:08:24a few finicky machines.
01:08:26It'll have them
01:08:26back in tip-top shape
01:08:28before you old schmucks
01:08:29need to get your gloves on.
01:08:31Now hurry up and scram
01:08:32or you can forget
01:08:34about your final
01:08:35fucking paycheck.
01:08:40Whoa!
01:08:41It's all right.
01:08:41It's all right.
01:08:42Let it go, okay?
01:08:43Look, you warned him plenty
01:08:44about the assembly line, huh?
01:08:46It's his own fault now
01:08:47if you won't listen.
01:08:49Come on, fellas.
01:08:50Let's go.
01:08:50Let's get out of here.
01:08:51Guy's a creep.
01:08:52What do you mean
01:08:53you can't fix it?
01:08:54I pay you millions of dollars
01:08:56for what?
01:08:57Mach 15 is on the line
01:08:58and if you can't fix it,
01:08:59Miss Wolfe, Miss Wolfe,
01:09:00can't you see that
01:09:01I'm on the phone?
01:09:01Webster Motors just fired
01:09:03that old car mechanic
01:09:03who told me to keep an eye on.
01:09:06I'll call you back.
01:09:08They fired Hank Walker?
01:09:11Evelyn, I need you
01:09:12to find him.
01:09:13Our CNC mills
01:09:13just suffered a critical error
01:09:15and he's the only one
01:09:15that can fix it.
01:09:16Make sure he gets here, okay?
01:09:18We need him.
01:09:19Got it, boss.
01:09:19I'll offer him a job
01:09:20with the pay ceiling.
01:09:21There's no ceiling.
01:09:24We're paying him
01:09:24whatever he wants.
01:09:27I'll have you, Hank.
01:09:29Hey, I'll catch up
01:09:30with you, Hank.
01:09:33Hi, I'm looking
01:09:34for a Mr. Walker.
01:09:35Oh, Hank?
01:09:36Yeah, he just missed him.
01:09:37He went to go see his daughter.
01:09:41Grandpa!
01:09:42Grandpa, I missed you so much.
01:09:49I didn't even get to
01:09:50play with you all up for a whole year.
01:09:53I know, kiddo.
01:09:54Your grandpa was busy at work.
01:09:56But I'm going to have
01:09:57a lot more time now.
01:09:58I can come over every day
01:09:59if you want.
01:10:00Yeah.
01:10:00Yeah?
01:10:01Oh, you're getting strong.
01:10:04Dad, shouldn't you be at work?
01:10:07I'm actually
01:10:08not going to be
01:10:09working there anymore.
01:10:10Webster laid me off.
01:10:12You got fired?
01:10:15Fuck.
01:10:17What are we going to do
01:10:17about the mortgage now?
01:10:19Mortgage?
01:10:20What are you talking about?
01:10:21The mortgage for this house,
01:10:22you stupid old fuck.
01:10:24Hannah and I have been
01:10:24using your paycheck
01:10:25to pay off the mortgage.
01:10:26What are we going to do now?
01:10:27They're going to foreclose on us.
01:10:29Jesse,
01:10:30I've been giving you
01:10:31my paycheck
01:10:31since you and Helen
01:10:32got married.
01:10:33Why isn't the mortgage
01:10:34paid off yet?
01:10:36Because a whole year's worth
01:10:37of your salary
01:10:38didn't even last me
01:10:39a single night in Vegas.
01:10:41So you were gambling it.
01:10:43I bust my back
01:10:4410 hours a day
01:10:45and what?
01:10:46You gambled it all away
01:10:47in one night
01:10:48on craps?
01:10:49Poker?
01:10:50I can't believe you two.
01:10:51All right?
01:10:52I've given everything
01:10:52for you guys.
01:10:53I stopped drinking coffee
01:10:54for you, all right?
01:10:55I barely scrape by
01:10:57on $300 a month.
01:10:59And you flush it
01:11:00down the drain.
01:11:01Gambling?
01:11:01Look, old man,
01:11:03I don't care.
01:11:05But Helen and I
01:11:05need the money
01:11:06to pay off the mortgage.
01:11:08And until you get
01:11:08another job,
01:11:09I want you to stay away
01:11:10from Audrey.
01:11:12Oh, Grandpa!
01:11:15What's coming into you,
01:11:16Jesse?
01:11:17I'm near retirement,
01:11:19okay?
01:11:20What's an old man
01:11:21like me supposed to do?
01:11:23You and Helen
01:11:25and little Audrey,
01:11:26you guys are all
01:11:26that I have.
01:11:27I just want to see
01:11:28this little girl
01:11:29grow up, okay?
01:11:29Please.
01:11:32I already lost my wife.
01:11:33Don't talk about my mom.
01:11:35If you weren't so stubborn,
01:11:37if you would have
01:11:38just left Detroit
01:11:38when you had the chance,
01:11:40she would have had
01:11:40better insurance coverage
01:11:41and not die.
01:11:44I would be in a better place, too.
01:11:46And now we're all stuck
01:11:47in this hellhole
01:11:49because of you.
01:11:51You're useless.
01:11:54My buddy Tom Norris
01:11:56got promoted
01:11:56to senior engineer
01:11:57in a year.
01:11:59You've been there
01:11:59for decades.
01:12:01And you're still just
01:12:01some low-level mechanic.
01:12:04Now get out.
01:12:05Now stay away from Audrey.
01:12:09You want to see Audrey again?
01:12:11Who brings us
01:12:12a nice, fat paycheck?
01:12:15Jesse's right.
01:12:16Got a job.
01:12:17You owe that to us.
01:12:18Now go dumpster dive
01:12:19if you have to.
01:12:20Grandpa!
01:12:22Grandpa!
01:12:24Oh, Grandpa!
01:12:27I just didn't want
01:12:28to give up on my city.
01:12:29Is that
01:12:29so wrong?
01:12:34Ew.
01:12:34Oh, look at that
01:12:35stinky hobo.
01:12:37Let's cross the street
01:12:37before he gets
01:12:38all his germs on us.
01:12:39Webster still hasn't
01:12:49given us our last paycheck
01:12:50and I haven't eaten
01:12:52since last night.
01:13:03Guess this will have
01:13:05to be my dinner.
01:13:05wha-
01:13:10Holy shit.
01:13:15Hank Walker.
01:13:16The rock star engineer
01:13:18behind our 1987 Webster Corsair.
01:13:21What are you doing?
01:13:22Eating out of a dumpster.
01:13:24Tom, you know this guy.
01:13:25Yep.
01:13:26Fired him yesterday.
01:13:28He's a piece of shit mechanic
01:13:29who wouldn't stop going on
01:13:30about,
01:13:30oh, the assembly line's
01:13:32going to explode.
01:13:33So I got rid of him.
01:13:35It's no laughing matter, Tom.
01:13:37I'm serious.
01:13:37If you're not careful,
01:13:38that whole assembly line
01:13:39is going to malfunction.
01:13:41Oh, fuck, man.
01:13:42Still stuck on that?
01:13:44That is bullshit.
01:13:46Hank Walker.
01:13:47They may have kept you
01:13:48around for 40 years
01:13:49because they're dumb.
01:13:50But I know
01:13:51you're nothing special.
01:13:52If you were anything like me,
01:13:53you'd at least be a manager.
01:13:55Well, they did ask me.
01:13:57But I turned them down
01:13:58because I want to work
01:14:00with cars.
01:14:01That's what I do best.
01:14:02And I don't need
01:14:03some empty title.
01:14:04But Tom,
01:14:05you have got to listen to me, okay?
01:14:07Have your guys watch the line.
01:14:08Otherwise,
01:14:09it's going to cost
01:14:09Webster millions.
01:14:10What a joke!
01:14:11I can't with you.
01:14:14Look,
01:14:15this is our newest software.
01:14:17All the lights are green.
01:14:19Green means good.
01:14:21See?
01:14:21Nothing can possibly go wrong.
01:14:24Warning.
01:14:25Malfunction detected.
01:14:27Initiating emergency stop protocol.
01:14:31No way this bastard
01:14:33got it right.
01:14:35What the hell happened here?
01:14:37The machine!
01:14:38It's smoking!
01:14:39I don't know.
01:14:39It shouldn't be doing that.
01:14:41We're following
01:14:42the exact same procedures
01:14:43we've always done.
01:14:44Well, it is.
01:14:45Look at it.
01:14:46If this machine goes down,
01:14:48we're going to have to
01:14:49shut down the whole plant.
01:14:50We're going to lose
01:14:51millions of dollars.
01:14:54Norris,
01:14:54I don't care what you do.
01:14:55Fix it
01:14:56by the end of the day
01:14:58or you're done.
01:15:03What are you just
01:15:04standing there for?
01:15:05Fix it!
01:15:07Um,
01:15:07well, Tom,
01:15:08the thing is,
01:15:09we don't know what the problem is.
01:15:10We don't know what's wrong.
01:15:11What do you mean?
01:15:12Didn't you go to college
01:15:13for this fucking shit?
01:15:14We just used to do
01:15:15what the older guys
01:15:16and Hank would do.
01:15:17They would diagnose it
01:15:18and they would solve it.
01:15:20Fuck!
01:15:21I'm so fucking sick
01:15:22of this fucking Hank guy.
01:15:24What do you want me to do?
01:15:26You want me to go back
01:15:27and bring back
01:15:27those old fossils
01:15:28that I just fucking fired?
01:15:30Fuck off!
01:15:31This whole plant
01:15:32isn't going to suddenly
01:15:33cease to function
01:15:34because a few wrinkly
01:15:35old farts
01:15:36got laid off.
01:15:37That's bullshit.
01:15:38Now fucking fix it!
01:15:39Faster!
01:15:43Miss Wolfe,
01:15:44I just don't see
01:15:45why we need
01:15:46a mechanic like Hank Walker
01:15:47right now.
01:15:48Don't worry,
01:15:48we already have
01:15:49an expert from Apex AI
01:15:50working on the CNC
01:15:51machine mill.
01:15:52We already lost
01:15:53one full production line.
01:15:54If we lose another,
01:15:55that could mean
01:15:55hundreds of millions
01:15:57of dollars
01:15:57of loss and profits.
01:15:59Look, you keep an eye
01:15:59on the factory
01:16:00and I will go find Hank
01:16:01because he's the only one
01:16:02I trust to fix this.
01:16:03There will never be
01:16:04a replacement
01:16:05for good,
01:16:06old-fashioned
01:16:07human ingenuity.
01:16:08Machines and humans
01:16:09can work together
01:16:10to create
01:16:10most efficient outcome.
01:16:12But a machine
01:16:13will never replace a human.
01:16:14getting scrapped, sir?
01:16:25You know it.
01:16:26We still have
01:16:27a lot of material
01:16:28that we need to get rid of.
01:16:30If you can carry it,
01:16:31it's all yours.
01:16:32Sir, there must be
01:16:35something you can do.
01:16:36We need to fix this now.
01:16:37Well, luckily,
01:16:38you came to the right place.
01:16:39I mean, we here at Apex AI
01:16:40know exactly
01:16:41what we're doing.
01:16:42We can handle stuff
01:16:43like this in our sleep.
01:16:44So we're just gonna
01:16:45have our diagnostics
01:16:46run on it,
01:16:47figure out a problem,
01:16:48and boom,
01:16:49Bob's your uncle.
01:16:50So this is Apex AI's
01:16:52new detection software?
01:16:53It looks brilliant.
01:16:54Jesus, lady.
01:16:57I mean, what did you
01:16:58do to this thing?
01:16:59This is a critical failure.
01:17:01Is there any way
01:17:02you can get it fixed
01:17:02by the end of the day?
01:17:03We need to have
01:17:04production back on schedule
01:17:05or my boss
01:17:06is gonna kill me.
01:17:07I know that machine.
01:17:08The reading is off
01:17:09simply because the sensor
01:17:10skips without a manual check.
01:17:12I mean, this is not a job
01:17:13that you can finish in a day, okay?
01:17:14I mean, this is gonna
01:17:15take like a week.
01:17:16We don't have a week.
01:17:16We have a client waiting on us.
01:17:18We have to get these parts
01:17:19machined now.
01:17:20Is there anything else
01:17:21you can do, please?
01:17:22I mean,
01:17:24we might have a solution.
01:17:26It's just the,
01:17:27it's the pay that you're offering,
01:17:29though.
01:17:29$2,000 for an eight-hour workday?
01:17:31Then,
01:17:32it just needs a reset.
01:17:34They're asking for even more.
01:17:36Ah,
01:17:36Mr. Pierre,
01:17:38Mr. Esteban,
01:17:39money is not an issue.
01:17:40I will give you
01:17:40two million each
01:17:41for your work here today.
01:17:42And if all goes well,
01:17:44there'll be a little bonus
01:17:45in it for you both as well.
01:17:46Okay.
01:17:46All right,
01:17:47don't worry about it.
01:17:47Good looking.
01:17:48All right,
01:17:48fixing machines.
01:17:49That's our job.
01:17:50It's very tough
01:17:51and thankless
01:17:52and very,
01:17:53very difficult job,
01:17:54but we'll get it up
01:17:54and run it for you.
01:17:56I can't believe
01:17:57they just scammed
01:17:58that poor girl.
01:17:59And then you're going
01:18:00to twist it the other way?
01:18:02Get in there.
01:18:03See?

01:19:17Ah!
01:19:18What are you talking about?
01:19:19Wow.
01:19:20You know what, Ms. Evelyn, can you get your guys
01:19:21to get him out of here?
01:19:22Okay, he's distracting us from working.
01:19:24Sir, I'm gonna have to ask you to step back, please.
01:19:26We have plenty of scrap metal
01:19:28and I'd be happy to help you get it.
01:19:29Miss, miss, forget the scrap metal.
01:19:31If you give me 10 minutes with this machine,
01:19:33I will tell you exactly what's wrong with it.
01:19:35And I'll fix it for you, free of charge.
01:19:38Whoa, whoa, whoa, okay.
01:19:39So, you saying you can fix this in 10 minutes?
01:19:42We're two of the best mechanics in the world
01:19:44armed with a brand spanking new AI detection system.
01:19:46Now, if we can't pull this off in 10 minutes,
01:19:48what's a scruffy old fart like you gonna do?
01:19:50You may have your fancy AI,
01:19:53but these machines, they were built by people
01:19:55and they're meant to be maintenance by people.
01:19:58I've been in this industry for 40 years.
01:20:00Trust me, I know what I'm talking about.
01:20:01You need somebody like Hank Walker.
01:20:04Ms. Wolfe said he's a genius car mechanic
01:20:06and he would know how to fix this.
01:20:12That's me.
01:20:16So, welcome.
01:20:20But seriously, yo know we've got any feedback from having those in 10 minutes.
01:20:22Towards September for most moments absolutely.
01:20:34But as you know, if you may want to see how to fix any reaction,
01:20:36you know, what I'm saying,
01:20:37how are we going to be willing to fix their lives then?
01:20:39How would you know we've really been working dice 3 times?
01:20:41I thought it was really funny enough,
01:20:41but it was really cool,
01:20:42so it was really interesting.
