00:00Figure it out for Webster Motors going bankrupt.
00:03And what the hell do you think you're doing?
00:05I designed this car back in the day. I'll figure out what's wrong with it.
00:07Pink Walker? Isn't that the super genius car in here?
00:10You're a hero, Webster Motor.
00:12Listen up. We've been purchased by Tesalux, big tech company.
00:16So all you boomers, you're fired.
00:20Duff, you got fired.
00:22You never really had the money, did you?
00:24Grandpa!
00:25I want you to come look for me at Mach 15.
00:27The starting salary is $10 million.
00:30Everyone, this is Hank Walker, your new lead engineer.
00:34Welcome, Mr. Walker.
00:35This old handyman wants to replace me?
00:37He's a fraud!
00:38Why don't we both work on the Seven Links Model A project?
00:42The zero car performs better, stays at Mach 15.
00:45And the loser? We've got to quit forever.
00:48I'll make a bet with you.
00:51How the fuck is this car better than mine?
00:54Because I'm the best engineer in the world.
00:57What's the fuck?
01:01Constantly explosion, killing three college students.
01:04As the company's silence raises questions about accountability, authorities are investigating.
01:09God damn it!
01:11Do you see this?
01:12They're calling our car a burning coffin.
01:14They act like we killed those kids ourselves.
01:16We need to figure out why the door jammed or Webster's going belly under.
01:20Here's your book.
01:20We've already dropped 100K on diagnostic tests alone.
01:24And nothing will come out.
01:25I don't want to hear your excuses.
01:27You're a goddamn Ivy League graduate.
01:29I'd pay you $200,000 a year, either figure it out or find a new job.
01:34And what the hell do you think you're doing?
01:37Tinkering around.
01:38We have to run a whole AI diagnostic system and you're over here fiddling.
01:41With all due respect, Mr. Russell, I know the Webster Corsair, like the back of my hand.
01:48I designed this car back in the day.
01:49I'll figure out what's wrong with it.
01:50We have a million dollar AI diagnosis who can't turn up anything.
01:54But you're going to figure it out with a five dollar wrench?
01:56Well, fancy gadgets and high-minded degrees can be important, but sometimes what you need
02:02is plain old and small.
02:03You know what?
02:04Go ahead.
02:05I've got nothing to lose.
02:06But if anything goes wrong, it's on your ass.
02:08Don't worry.
02:09I won't mess this up.
02:11Let's go.
02:11I found it.
02:30See that?
02:31From a shirt, our owner must have made a legal new modification, snagged it on a thread
02:36during installation, and jammed the latch during impact.
02:39Closer's not at fault.
02:40Well, you saved the company a few million, buddy.
02:44Go show the boss.
02:44You are embarrassing me, and you're embarrassing yourself.
02:47I think I found the problem.
02:51Ah, you old son of a bitch.
02:53You did it.
02:54All right, I'm going to go to the press and tell the Ford all the good news.
02:58You're a hero at Webster Motor.
03:05Attention, everyone.
03:06This concludes today's shift.
03:07Please shut down your stations and clock out.
03:10Drive safe, and we'll see you tomorrow.
03:12Oh, Mr. Walker, can I have a word?
03:21Oh, of course.
03:22Um, this is a car my nephew got from his grandmother.
03:34It's a collector's item, which means it's one of a kind, and you're the only one I trust to fix it.
03:39It's funny, last week it was a plane.
03:41This week it's a car.
03:43Your nephew sure likes to break things, huh?
03:46They're so messy, teenagers.
03:47Tell me about it.
03:49My daughter was the same way.
03:51I can have it back to you tomorrow.
03:53Great.
03:54Is your payment?
03:55100K.
03:58Miss Wolf, it's an easy fix.
04:00You don't have to pay me.
04:02Good to see you.
04:03Oh, Hank, wait.
04:08Hank, wait.
04:13I'll be straight with you.
04:14Okay, you've been at Webster for 40 years.
04:17You know cars.
04:18You're one of the best engineers in the world.
04:21But they treat you worse than the mechanics that work for an hourly rate.
04:25Why don't you come work for me at Mach 15?
04:28We're developing a new supercar.
04:29Silver Lynx Model A, and I want you to be in charge.
04:32The starting pay is $10 million.
04:35That's a lot of money.
04:37But you said so yourself, Miss Wolf.
04:40I've been with Webster Motors for 40 years.
04:44And any time I have remaining, I just assume it be with them.
04:48Old mucks like me were the backbone of Detroit's industry.
04:51You got a good job on your hands, and you should give it to a youngster.
04:55As for me, just stick to toy cars.
05:02Hey, look, we're early.
05:06Hey, how you doing, man?
05:07Oh, hey.
05:10Welcome, sir.
05:11Tom Norris.
05:12You reckon he's here to give us some bonus?
05:14I doubt it.
05:16Move.
05:17Move.
05:18Move.
05:18Move.
05:18Move.
05:18All right.
05:19All right.
05:19All right.
05:19Hey, listen up.
05:21I have an announcement.
05:23Webster Motors has gone through a change of hands.
05:26We've been purchased by Tesalux.
05:31Yes, that Tesalux, the EV car company.
05:34Sir, a big man upstairs, now some guy named Elon.
05:38Tesalux is a tech company.
05:40Big emphasis on tech.
05:43So all you boomers, you're fired.
05:49You're fired.
05:50What?
05:51Wait, what?
05:52Wait, wait, wait, wait.
05:53We're all fired.
05:56That can't be right.
05:58Oh, you need me to spell it out for you?
06:00Fine.
06:01Webster Motors has purchased a cutting-edge AI detection system from Apex AI for over 10
06:07billion.
06:08And let me tell you, this software makes all of you has-been boomers look like a bunch
06:13of fucking amateurs.
06:15It'll do more for this company in 10 minutes than you could do in 10 years.
06:19So, go home.
06:22Wait for death to come knocking.
06:25Now, whoa, whoa, whoa, now hold on.
06:26That ain't right.
06:28Look, we are the backbone of Webster Motors, right?
06:32We built this company up from the ground.
06:34Hell, some of us were here before Webster was.
06:36You can't just let us go.
06:37That is workplace discrimination, right, boys?
06:40Yeah, right.
06:41We're gonna fucking sue you.
06:42Well, it's not ageism if you're just bad.
06:45We're a tech company now.
06:47We need computer people who write AI that does what you do, and they do it better and
06:52faster.
06:54Face it.
06:55This is the 21st century.
06:56Everything is fast and digital.
06:59It's time for you washed up old farts to pack your little bags?
07:03Fuck off.
07:04Because like it or not, you're being replaced.
07:05I might not know anything about AI, but I do know one thing.
07:10These machines here, they're finicky, and unless real people are monitoring the assembly
07:15line at all times, it's only a matter of time before something goes boom, and all production
07:21stops.
07:21That's right.
07:23What do you mean everything goes boom?
07:26I've worked here for 40 years.
07:29I know these machines.
07:30They need to be checked on and resurviced.
07:32Otherwise, you're gonna lose billions.
07:34Oh, okay.
07:36So, so, so you're saying the reason that I can't fire you, oh fuck, is because I need
07:43someone to watch the machine all day or it's gonna go boom?
07:45Yeah, that's right.
07:46And you better make sure they have the experience to know what they're looking for.
07:49Oh, holy fuck.
07:52You're a real fucking shameless one, you know?
07:54I know you won't be able to get another job, but that doesn't mean you can make shit
07:57up either.
07:58I'm not making anything up.
08:00I'm telling you how it is, based on my experience.
08:03All right.
08:03Oh man, I gotta go.
08:05All right?
08:06But don't think you're anything special because of yesterday.
08:09I downloaded the source code from the diagnostic test myself, and that car was perfectly fine.
08:14You lucked out with that screw.
08:16So all you need to do is go back and rot in hospice.
08:20No, no, no, no, how dare you?
08:22How dare you?
08:23We built this city with our own hands.
08:25We are the ones that brought industry to Detroit.
08:27Yeah.
08:28We did all that hard labor so kids like you could come on off to college.
08:32And now this is how you're gonna treat us?
08:34Shut up.
08:34Right?
08:35Shut up.
08:36You disgusting old fucking hicks.
08:38We're gonna call the cops.
08:40As of now, you're fired.
08:42So this is trespassing.
08:43Tom, you need to tell the assembly line swoopers about the maintenance.
08:49If something happens to one of these machines, it's gonna cost Webster millions.
08:53And it's a safety hazard.
08:54I don't give a fuck about your experience.
08:57That is all subjective bullshit.
08:59We have the cold hard facts right here.
09:02Our new AI detection system will be fully operational in a few short days.
09:07You really think it can't handle a few finicky machines?
09:10It'll have them back in tip-top shape before you old schmucks.
09:13You need to get your gloves on.
09:15Now hurry up and scram or you can forget about your final fucking paycheck.
09:24All right.
09:26All right.
09:26Let it go, okay?
09:27Look, you warned him plenty about the assembly line, huh?
09:30It's his own fault now if he won't listen.
09:33Come on, fellas.
09:34Let's go.
09:34Let's get out of here.
09:36Guy's a creep.
09:37What do you mean you can't fix it?
09:39I pay you millions of dollars.
09:40For what?
09:41Mach 15 is on the line, and if you can't fix it-
09:43Miss Holt, Miss Holt.
09:44Can't you see that I'm on the phone?
09:46Webster Motors just fired that old car mechanic.
09:48You told me to keep an eye on it.
09:51I'll call you back.
09:52They fired Hank Walker?
09:55Evelyn, I need you to find him.
09:57Our CNC mills have suffered a critical error, and he's the only one that can fix it.
10:01Make sure he gets here, okay?
10:02We need him.
10:03Got it, boss.
10:03I'll offer him a job.
10:05What's the pay ceiling?
10:07There's no ceiling.
10:08I'll pay him whatever he wants.
10:11I'll have you, Hank.
10:14Hey, I'll catch up with you, Hank.
10:18Hi, I'm looking for a Mr. Walker.
10:20Oh, Hank?
10:21Yeah, he just missed him.
10:22He went to go see his daughter.
10:24Grandpa!
10:26Grandpa!
10:32Grandpa, I miss you so much.
10:34I didn't even get to play with you all last for four minutes.
10:38I know, kiddo.
10:39Your grandpa was busy at work.
10:40But, I'm going to have a lot more time now.
10:43You can come over every day if you want.
10:45Yeah?
10:46Ah!
10:48Oh, I ain't getting strong.
10:49Dad!
10:51Shouldn't you be at work?
10:51I'm actually not going to be working there anymore.
10:55Webster laid me off.
10:57You got fired?
11:00Fuck!
11:02What are we going to do about the mortgage now?
11:04Mortgage?
11:05What are you talking about?
11:06The mortgage for this house, you stupid old fuck.
11:09Hannah and I have been using your paycheck to pay off the mortgage.
11:12What are we going to do now?
11:13They're going to foreclose on us.
11:14Jesse, I've been giving you my paycheck since you and Helen got married.
11:19Why isn't the mortgage paid off yet?
11:21Because a whole year's worth of your salary didn't even last me a single night in Vegas.
11:27So you were gambling it.
11:28I bust my back ten hours a day and what?
11:32You gambled it all away in one night on craps?
11:34Poker?
11:35I can't believe you two.
11:37Alright?
11:37I've given everything for you guys.
11:39I stopped drinking coffee for you, alright?
11:40I barely scrape by on $300 a month.
11:44And you flush it down the drain gambling?
11:48Look, old man, I don't care.
11:50But Helen and I need the money to pay off the mortgage.
11:53And until you get another job, I want you to stay away from Audrey.
11:58Oh, grandpa!
12:00What's coming to you, Jesse?
12:03I'm near retirement, okay?
12:06What's an old man like me supposed to do?
12:09You and Helen and little Audrey, you guys are all that I have.
12:13I just want to see this little girl grow up, okay?
12:16Please.
12:17I already lost my wife.
12:19Don't talk about my mom.
12:21If you weren't so stubborn, if you would have just left Detroit when you had the chance,
12:25she would have had better insurance coverage and not die.
12:28I would be in a better place, too.
12:31And now we're all stuck in this hellhole because of you.
12:38You're useless.
12:40My buddy Tom Norris got promoted to senior engineer in a year.
12:44You've been there for decades.
12:45And you're still just some low-level mechanic.
12:49Now get out.
12:50Now stay away from Audrey.
12:53You want to see Audrey again?
12:57Who brings a nice, fat paycheck?
13:00Jesse's right.
13:01Good job.
13:02You owe that to us.
13:04Now go dumpster dive if you have to.
13:05I just didn't want to give up on my city.
13:14Is that so wrong?
13:20Oh, look at that stinky hobo.
13:23Let's cross the street before he gets all his germs on us.
13:25Webster still hasn't given us our last paycheck.
13:37And I haven't eaten since last night.
13:49Guess this will have to be my dinner.
13:55Holy shit.
14:01Nick Walker, the rock star engineer behind our 1987 Webster Corsair.
14:07What are you doing?
14:08Eating out of a dumpster.
14:09Tom, you know this guy.
14:11Yeah.
14:12Fired him yesterday.
14:14He's a piece of shit mechanic who wouldn't stop going on about,
14:16Oh, the assembly line's going to explode.
14:19So I got rid of him.
14:21Don't laughing matter, Tom.
14:23I'm serious.
14:23If you're not careful, that whole assembly line is going to malfunction.
14:27Oh, fuck, man.
14:28You still stuck on that?
14:29That is bullshit.
14:32Hank Walker, they may have kept you around for 40 years because they're dumb.
14:36But I know you're nothing special.
14:38If you were anything like me, you'd at least be a manager.
14:41Well, they did ask me.
14:43But I turned them down.
14:44Because I want to work with cars.
14:47That's what I do best.
14:48And I don't need some empty title.
14:50But Tom, you have got to listen to me, okay?
14:52Have your guys watch the line.
14:54Otherwise, it's going to cost Webster millions.
14:56I don't jump.
14:58I can't, will you?
15:00Look, this is our newest software.
15:03All the lights are green.
15:04Green means good.
15:07See?
15:07Nothing can possibly go wrong.
15:10Warning.
15:11Malfunction detected.
15:13Initiating emergency stop protocol.
15:15No way this bastard got it right.
15:22What the hell happens here?
15:24The machine, it's smoking.
15:25I don't know.
15:26It shouldn't be doing that.
15:28We're following the exact same procedures we've always done.
15:31Well, it is.
15:32Look at it.
15:32If this machine goes down, we're going to have to shut down the whole plant.
15:37We're going to lose millions of dollars.
15:40Norris, I don't care what you do.
15:42Fix it.
15:43By the end of the day, or you're done.
15:45What are you just standing there for?
15:52Fix it!
15:53Um, well, Tom, the thing is, we don't know what the problem is.
15:57We don't know what's wrong.
15:58What do you mean?
15:59Didn't you go to college for this fucking shit?
16:01We just used to do what the older guys and Hank would do.
16:04They would diagnose it, and they would solve it.
16:06Fuck!
16:07I'm so fucking sick of this fucking Hank guy.
16:11What do you want me to do?
16:12Do you want me to go back and bring back those old fossils that I've just?
16:15Fucking fired?
16:17Fuck off!
16:18This whole plant isn't going to suddenly cease to function because a few wrinkly old farts
16:22got laid off.
16:24That's bullshit.
16:24Now fucking fix it.
16:26Faster!
16:30Miss Wolfe, I just don't see why we need a mechanic like Hank Walker right now.
16:34Don't we already have an expert from Apex AI working on CNC machine mill?
16:38We already lost one full production line.
16:41If we lose another, that could mean hundreds of millions of dollars of fossil profits.
16:45Look, you keep an eye on the factory, and I will go find Hank.
16:48This is the only one I trust to fix this.
16:50There will never be a replacement for good, old-fashioned human ingenuity.
16:54Machines and humans can work together to create the most efficient outcome.
16:58The machine will never replace the human.
17:11Getting scrapped, sir?
17:13You know it.
17:14We still have a lot of material that we need to get rid of.
17:17If you can carry it, it's all yours.
17:19Sir, there must be something you can do.
17:23We need to fix this now.
17:24Well, luckily, you came to the right place.
17:26I mean, we here at Apex AI know exactly what we're doing.
17:29We can handle stuff like this in our sleep.
17:31So we're just going to have our diagnostics run on it, figure out a problem, and boom.
17:36Bob's your uncle.
17:36So this is Apex AI's new detection software?
17:40It looks brilliant.
17:43Jesus, lady.
17:45I mean, what did you do to this thing?
17:46This is a critical failure.
17:48Is there any way you can get it fixed by the end of the day?
17:50We need to have production back on schedule, or my boss is going to kill me.
17:54I know that machine.
17:55The reading is off simply because the sensor skips without a manual check.
17:59I mean, this is not a job that you can finish in a day, okay?
18:01I mean, this is going to take like a week.
18:03We don't have a week.
18:04We have a client waiting on us.
18:05We have to get these parts machined now.
18:07Is there anything else you can do, please?
18:10I mean, we might have a solution.
18:13It's just the pay that you're offering, though.
18:16$2,000 for an eight-hour workday?
18:18Then it just needs a reset.
18:21They're asking for even more.
18:23Oh, Mr. Pierre, Mr. Espan, money is not an issue.
18:27I will give you $2 million each for your work here today.
18:29And if all goes well, there will be a little bonus in it for you both as well.
18:33Okay.
18:34All right, well, don't worry about it, good-looking.
18:35All right, fixing machines, that's our job.
18:37It's a very tough and thankless and very, very difficult job,
18:41but we'll get it up in the morning for you.
18:43I can't believe they just scammed that poor girl.
18:47And then you're going to twist it the other way?
18:49See?
18:50Our new AI tool has the solution for everything.
18:53Step 37, that's what it said.
19:00Jeez, this is what ever happened when Hank was around.
19:02Shut up!
19:03Did I really fuck up by firing those old-timers?
19:06I'm not going to have to bring Hank back on board, am I?
19:11What?
19:13Apex AI's tech experts are over at Mach 15?
19:16Oh, perfect.
19:18Those guys are a golden ticket to fixing this machine.
19:21I'll head over right now.
19:22All righty.
19:30Fire it up.
19:33No!
19:36Not yet.
19:38You can't.
19:39You've got to reset the machine first.
19:42Otherwise, you'll be operating under the faulty presets.
19:45You're leading this machine down a one-way path to catastrophic failure.
19:49Okay, I'm sorry.
19:50Where the fuck is this guy?
19:51Go back, go back, get your scrap, get out of here.
19:54Okay, you're distracting us from this billion-dollar machine here.
19:58It's an easy fix.
20:00But I bet you two knew that, didn't you?
20:02You talked it up to her so you could get that extra pay.
20:05What are you talking about?
20:06Wow.
20:07You know what, Ms. Evelyn?
20:07Come on, can you get your guys to get him out of here?
20:09Okay, he's distracting us from working.
20:12Sir, I'm going to have to ask you to step back, please.
20:14We have plenty of scrap metal, and I'd be happy to help you get it.
20:17Miss, miss, forget the scrap metal.
20:19If you give me ten minutes with this machine, I will tell you exactly what's wrong with it.
20:23And I'll fix it for you, free of charge.
20:26Oh, okay.
20:27So, you're saying you can fix this in ten minutes?
20:30We're two of the best mechanics in the world, armed with a brand spanking new AI detection system.
20:34Now, if we can't pull this off in ten minutes, what's a scrub for your whole fart like you're going to do?
20:38You may have your fancy AI, but these machines, they were built by people.
20:43And they're meant to be maintenanced by people.
20:45I've been in this industry for 40 years.
20:47Trust me, I know what I'm talking about.
20:49You need somebody like Hank Walker.
20:51Miss Wolfe said he's a genius car mechanic, and he would know how to fix this.
20:59That's me.
21:03I am Hank Walker.
21:05Wait, Hank Walker?
21:06Isn't that the genius supercar engineer that Boss went to hire?
21:10I need to call her.
21:11Poor hair is in the industry.
21:13Oh, but you was a custodian, right?
21:15Well, it makes you think you know more than someone with a master's degree, man.
21:18Do you really, really think that you know more than this billion-dollar AI detection system?
21:24You're taking us for a ride, you stupid old fuck.
21:27Watch your tongue, young man.
21:29If she had pressed that start button, this machine, she would have fried the microcontroller.
21:33What you need to do is reset the system.
21:35Let it cool down first, and you start it back up before you run anything.
21:39How did you know this?
21:40Because I'm the best technician for 40 years.
21:43Do you really think that you can fix this in ten minutes?
21:46Of course I can.
21:47No, he can't.
21:49This redneck is a useless piece of shit union monkey that I fired from Webster yesterday.
21:56He doesn't know jack about tech.
21:58He's just out of a job and desperate for cash.
22:01Oh, you really had us going.
22:03You disgusting old fart.
22:04Here we are thinking you're just some genius engineer.
22:07You ain't nothing but a scammer.
22:09Tom Norris, something must have gone very wrong at Webster for you to be here at a competitor.
22:14I told you to wash those machines.
22:16Shut up!
22:17You spent the last four years swapping out blinker fluid.
22:22What do you know about cars?
22:24Poor engineering.
22:25You see this?
22:27This blows you out of the fucking water.
22:30What did you say to Hank Walker?
22:31Oh my gosh.
22:34Why is Voss here?
22:34Oh, Miss Wolfe?
22:39Hank, I'm asking you guys up front.
22:41If you can fix this, I owe you a big one.
22:43We have a huge order coming in and we have to fill it.
22:46Or we recontract it and we get sued into oblivion.
22:50Don't worry, Miss Wolfe.
22:51Wait, Miss Wolfe.
22:52Out of respect.
22:52I'm so sorry.
22:53Do you really trust him?
22:55You're putting him against a billion-dollar AI detection system here.
23:00It's my machine.
23:01And I will take responsibility.
23:03And I would appreciate it if you stop insulting my guest.
23:07You may not look it.
23:11But Hank is one of the best auto engineers in the world.
23:14And he's been fixing machines since before you were born.
23:17Are we looking at the same guy here?
23:20Miss Wolfe, I am from one of your competitors, but I would hate for you to get scams.
23:26You got fired from Webster because he is worthless.
23:29I'm sorry.
23:30Who are you?
23:31And what are you doing in my factory?
23:33I'm a senior engineer at Webster and a graduate from MIT.
23:38I'm happy to give you my advice, Miss Wolfe.
23:41Hank is useless.
23:43He's going to break that machine.
23:44And he can't afford to pay you back.
23:47Tom Norris, why don't you and I make a little bet, huh?
23:52If I fix this machine here, I want you to write a formal letter of apology to all my old co-workers.
23:58Everyone that you fired.
24:00And in that letter, I want you to tell them that there is no substitute for a seasoned, experienced mechanic.
24:08Not even AI.
24:11Sure thing, buddy.
24:12And if you fuck it up, I want you to post online that you're a stupid old fuck and a useless liar.
24:22And then, I want you to come back and I want you to lick my shoes clean.
24:27You shut your mouth.
24:31I don't care who you are.
24:33Miss Wolfe.
24:34But if you continue to disrespect my guest, I will have security toss you out.
24:37He was my subordinate.
24:38I know exactly what he is capable of.
24:41Which is to say nothing.
24:44Fine.
24:45Miss Wolfe.
24:46Miss Wolfe, it's okay.
24:49Morning you right now.
24:51Just shake on it, then.
24:52I bet.
24:53Let's see what you can do.
24:59Oh, fuck.
25:01I'll make damn sure the next generation learns that experience is the one asset no machine can replace.
25:08And I'll prove the value of every fellow worker who's built this industry in Detroit.
25:14Watch and learn.
25:15Hank!
25:23What the hell do you think you're doing?
25:26Jesse.
25:27Grandpa.
25:29Audrey.
25:30Tom called me.
25:32He told me that you're at Mach 15 working on some multi-million dollar tech.
25:36Your name is on the house.
25:39If you get sued and we lose the house, where are we going to go?
25:43You stop this.
25:44You stop this right now.
25:45For your own good, Hank.
25:47You barely make 1K a month.
25:49You can't afford to pay them back.
25:51Simple game theory.
25:52Did you hear that, old man?
25:53If you touch that machine again, we are cutting you off.
25:57And you are never, ever going to see Helen or Audrey again.
26:04I don't want you to tell you, please, girl, but please don't fool.
26:08Dad, come on.
26:09Stop making a fool of yourself.
26:11I know you're a mechanic, but you work on old, beat-up cars.
26:13It's not million dollar heavy machinery.
26:16I mean, even the freaking AI is stumped.
26:18How the hell are you going to know how to fix it?
26:20Helen.
26:21What happened to you?
26:23You used to believe in me.
26:25You used to say, you can fix anything.
26:29I started working with cars because you loved them.
26:33Don't you remember?
26:35You drew this for me.
26:37And I kept it in my wallet every day for inspiration.
26:41Helen.
26:42What happened to you?
26:43Why are you like this?
26:47I was six.
26:49Okay?
26:49But now I'm a grown-ass woman.
26:51And I became this way because I have a deadbeat father who's too afraid to leave a dying city
26:56and let his whole family just suffer with him.
27:07Look, if you still care about me at all, stop whatever you're doing.
27:12You already ruined my life.
27:15My mom died because of you.
27:18You're just a nobody.
27:19Stuck in a dead-end job in an industry that's way past its glory days.
27:23And you're still waiting for a miracle.
27:26Bad Mommy!
27:28No, I trust you, Grandpa.
27:30You can get the machine working again.
27:32Thank you for still believing in me, Audrey.
27:36Give it up, Hank.
27:37You can't fix shit.
27:39And you know it.
27:41That combination mill is worth millions.
27:44And your daughter's property won't even start to cover it.
27:49Hank, don't worry about the damages.
27:51This is my company, and I trust you.
27:54If you mess anything up, I will eat the cost, and you owe a single cent.
28:00A deal is a deal.
28:02And if Hank fixes this machine, you owe him and everybody else you laid off an apology.
28:07Well, let me show you how it's done.
28:09Hmm.
28:10Hmm.
28:11Hmm.
28:11Hmm.
28:11Hmm.
28:12Hmm.
28:13Hmm.
28:14Hmm.
28:15Hmm.
28:16Hmm.
28:17Hmm.
28:18Hmm.
28:19Hmm.
28:20Hmm.
28:21Hmm.
28:40Well done.
28:41Holy shit.
28:42Nine minutes and 41 seconds.
28:44I mean, how on earth did you manage that?
28:46I used to do it all the time.
28:49Back at Webster, I'd fix 20 CNC machines in one afternoon on a bad day.
28:5320 of these things.
28:54Even with our AI detection software, it would take a week to do that.
28:58So you get me.
28:59Thank you so, so much.
29:00There aren't words for what you did.
29:01You just bailed us out of bankruptcy.
29:02No.
29:03Look.
29:04You lost.
29:05Because I just plugged some algorithms in.
29:06And my data, it's showing me that there's no way you could have fixed this machine in
29:1210 minutes.
29:13You're a liar.
29:14I knew it.
29:15I was on to you from the very beginning, you greasy old fart bag.
29:16You didn't even turn it on, did you?
29:17And our processing unit is still going so you have zero proof that you've even did anything.
29:18Yeah.
29:19And who's to say it was even going to run, huh?
29:20A clown.
29:21All these union rats are the same.
29:22They're like the Berman of Detroit.
29:23Grandpa Hanks is not a rat.
29:24He's the coolest guy in Detroit.
29:26That's right.
29:27Mechanics like me, were the backbone of Detroit.
29:30Just watch.
29:31When I pull that lever there, I'll tell you let me know.
29:32I'll tell you.
29:33You're the best.
29:34You're the best.
29:35You're the best.
29:36You're the best.
29:37You're the best.
29:38You're the best.
29:39You're the best.
29:40You're the best.
29:41You're the best.
29:42You're the best.
29:43You're the best.
29:44You're the best.
29:45Just watch. When I pull that lever there, it's going to start up like a gem.
29:52Ready?
30:05Looks like your little pet project didn't do much.
30:08Better grab a puke bag, because you're going to lick my shoes clean.
30:15Wait to see.
30:29It's okay. Everything's reading completely safe.
30:33You actually did it in less than ten minutes.
30:36No, there is no way that Boomer actually did it. He doesn't know Jack about tech.
30:41Yay, Grandpa! I knew you could do it!
30:49Thank you so, so much. I mean, you just brought us back billions. You saved Mach 15.
30:55I was happy to do it.
30:57So what if he didn't fix it? He's still unemployed, and he's still not bringing home any money.
31:02Stop being mean to Grandpa!
31:04He really fixed it, like you said he would.
31:10Hank, I would again like to offer you a position.
31:14I want you as my lead supercar engineer.
31:18With a starting salary of $10 million.
31:21$10 million?
31:30That is unheard of for an engineer.
31:32Because I'm not an idiot like you.
31:34I've...
31:35And I recognize a diamond in the rough, but I see it.
31:42No way!
31:43It actually says $10 million.
31:47Someone is really offering to pay millions for my dad.
31:51And here I thought he was old and useless.
31:54I was so wrong about him.
31:58And he's worth every single penny that's coming to him.
32:02And I'm offering him company shares.
32:05Sign it, Hank.
32:13After everything you've done for this industry.
32:18This whole thing.
32:21I can't thank you enough, but...
32:24I can't in good conscience take $10 million.
32:27No, no!
32:28No, no, no, no, no.
32:29Wait, hold that thought.
32:30Hold that thought.
32:30Yes, you can, Hank.
32:32And you should.
32:32Look, that lady said that you were worth every single cent.
32:36It means you're a pro.
32:37I've always known that you'd have a knack for this engineering thing.
32:42But this, this, this proves it.
32:44Dad, if you take that money, you pay off our mortgage.
32:48But we only have $100,000 left.
32:50And Audrey, we could afford to send her to the best school.
32:53And buy that pony she's always wanted.
32:55Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
32:57Just think about it.
32:58If you'd be working at Mach 15, you'd have dibs on all their supercars.
33:02I have been itching to get my hands on a new ride.
33:06And just think how cool it would be for Audrey to go to school in one of those feasts.
33:12Funny.
33:14I don't remember the two of you treating Hank this way when you first walked in here.
33:19I'm not buying it.
33:21There is no way that he fixed that machine.
33:26The hell are you talking about?
33:27He just fixed it.
33:28We all watched him fix it.
33:30If it wasn't him, who was it?
33:32He just tapped in a few nuts and bolts.
33:34You think that's going to magically solve anything?
33:37This machine is only working on Esteban and Pierre's AI software.
33:42All we had to do was turn it on and it would have been working as good as new like it is now.
33:47Hank just swooped in and took all the credit.
33:50Yeah, that's right.
33:51All you did was pull a lever.
33:53Meanwhile, Pierre and I did everything else.
33:56You jerk, you've lied to us.
33:58That's why you didn't want us to turn it on before.
34:00Because you knew it would work.
34:02You just wanted to steal our thunder.
34:04Miss Wolfe, that is unacceptable behavior for a future hire.
34:07That's not what happened.
34:09And you all know that.
34:14Tom Norris, where the hell are you?
34:17When are those experts going to get here?
34:21Yes, I am on my way.
34:23They're coming right now, boss.
34:24I promise.
34:25They better show up soon, because if we don't get it fixed by the end of the day, you are fired!
34:36I don't have time to waste on you freaks anymore.
34:38Esteban, Mr. Pierre, would you mind bopping over to Webster Motors with me?
34:42We're just in a little bit of a pickle with one of our machines, and we could really use your expertise.
34:49I promise you we would treat you with the utmost respect, unlike these rude idiots at Mount 15.
34:54Yeah, you know what?
34:55Sure.
34:57Because everybody else has sided with this fake mechanic over here.
35:00Let's go somewhere where our skills will be appreciated.
35:03You got me.
35:04Absolutely.
35:05Um, it's no use.
35:07They're not going to be able to fix your machine.
35:09Well, I beg to differ.
35:11I think they have real skill and talent, unlike you.
35:14Yeah, Hank.
35:15While you're busy pulling levers and flipping buttons and doing whatever you're doing,
35:20we do all the real work.
35:22And you know what?
35:24You're the one who broke that machine.
35:26So you're going to come back with me to Webster's and fix it.
35:35We'll find out soon enough.
35:37Hell no!
35:37We won't go!
35:38Hell no!
35:39We won't go!
35:40Hell no!
35:41We won't go!
35:42Hell no!
35:43We won't go!
35:44Hell no!
35:45We won't go!
35:46Hell no!
35:47We won't go!
35:48Hell no!
35:49We won't go!
35:50Hell no!
35:51We won't go!
35:52Hell no!
35:53We won't go!
35:54Hell no! We won't!
35:56Hell no!
35:58We won't!
36:00What's going on here?
36:02We're processing the layoffs. What do you think, man?
36:04Hey, come on. Join us.
36:06I can't today. They're here doing some repairs
36:08and I'm tagging along to make sure nothing bad goes happen.
36:10One of the assembly line machines malfunctioned.
36:14They malfunctioned?
36:16Already? It serves them right.
36:18You know, I bet they're running around in there like a bunch of headless chickens.
36:20Can't do anything right without us, huh?
36:22You know what? I gotta see it for myself.
36:24Come on. I'm going in with you.
36:26Keep going, fellas. Hell no!
36:28We won't go! Hell no! We won't go!
36:30Hell no! We won't go!
36:32Hell no! We won't go!
36:34Fix it!
36:36It's what you're paying for!
36:38Boss, I brought them.
36:40Let's see here they are.
36:42I'm gonna see it, Tommy.
36:44Yes, yes, yes.
36:46Ted? Hank?
36:48What are you doing here? We laid you off.
36:50Came to watch you crash and burn, that's what.
36:52Yeah, I wanted to see how things were holding up.
36:54Now they're using this faulty AI instead of us experienced folk.
36:58I'll deal with you later.
37:00Tom, the boss just called.
37:02He's breathing down our neck.
37:04If we don't get this figured out and fixed, we're both fired.
37:06Please, you're the expert's right. You gotta help us.
37:08Yeah, relax, Tom. Lucky for you, we got the world's best AI on our side.
37:11So we'll just get this bad boy started up quickly and, uh, we don't know what.
37:15No! You got this all wrong, okay? It's a heat issue.
37:19It's not something one little AI test can resolve.
37:23And if you want to get to the root of this problem, it's gonna take some time.
37:27...without your heat, Hank, okay?
37:33Because when the experts fix this with their detection system,
37:37and it turns out not to be a heat problem, you're gonna look like a pathetic liar.
37:41Look, I'm telling you, Tom, you gotta do something about the heat.
37:45Otherwise, it's just gonna keep error.
37:47Okay, okay, that's nonsense, okay?
37:49This guy doesn't have the slightest idea of the powers of AI.
37:51Tom, I'm telling you, do not waste your time on clowns like him.
37:55All right, success is imminent.
37:57Once production is back online, I'm gonna expose your lies to hell and back online.
38:02And then, everyone's gonna hate you, and Mob 15 will have to fire you for PR.
38:06You better pray they know what they're doing, because it certainly doesn't look like that.
38:10Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
38:26All right. Turn it on.
38:29No, you can't.
38:30Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You and your heat.
38:32You know what, buddy? Screw you.
38:34Okay, I've checked this time. Everything's completely fine.
38:37So get with the times, old man.
38:39All our checks are AI-driven now, and the experts are saying the heat is not an issue.
38:44So turn it on!
38:46I said, turn it on!
38:48Oh! See? What did I say?
38:49I'm telling you, Boober, we don't need you.
38:53It may be running fine right now, but it's just gonna keep overheating until it malfunctions again.
38:54Buddy, do you think anyone here actually cares about what you're saying?
38:58You're fucking screwed, buddy, because everyone knows that you're a liar.
39:03You can't fix shit, and that you lucked out back in that 15 with their machine.
39:04Yeah, you know what, Hank?
39:05When I first met you, I did think that you were something special.
39:06You know what, Hank?
39:07You know what, Hank?
39:08When I first met you, I did think that you were something special.
39:09You know what, Hank?
39:10Now I agree with Tom.
39:11You're nothing but a fraud.
39:12I know.
39:13I'm telling you, Boober, we don't need you.
39:14It may be running fine right now, but it's just gonna keep overheating until it malfunctions
39:17again.
39:18Buddy, do you think anyone here actually cares about what you're saying?
39:23You're fucking screwed, buddy, because everyone knows that you're a liar, you can't fix shit,
39:28and that you lucked out back in that 15 with their machine.
39:31Yeah, you know what, Hank?
39:32You know what, Hank?
39:33When I first met you, I did think that you were something special.
39:35Now I agree with Tom.
39:37You're nothing but a fraud.
39:39I knew it.
39:40I knew it from the moment I saw you.
39:42I know you wasn't no genius engineer.
39:45I can't believe you, man.
39:46You made me sick over here comparing yourself to us.
39:49Please.
39:50Anyway, thank you, gentlemen, so much for coming in.
39:53You saved me and Tom's asses.
39:55Oh, yeah.
39:56You know, it's just part of the job, all right?
39:57Um, I'm sure Tom here lets you know that we charge, uh,
40:0120...
40:03Thousand?
40:0420K!
40:05For what?
40:06Hang on, I'm getting the impression here that you don't think that our work was...
40:09was worth it.
40:10Last time I checked, I just saved your ass from getting fired.
40:13Look at that.
40:14No, not at all, Mr. Aspen.
40:16The way I see it, 20K?
40:18Plenty reasonable.
40:19I mean, 20K got us results, which is...
40:22much more than what Hank did for 10 million twiddling his little thumbs.
40:26You know, I can't believe you'd lie to the CEO of Mach 15.
40:30A woman.
40:31Why were you?
40:32I'd call her right now and tell her everything before I get sued!
40:36Speak for yourself, Tom.
40:41This machine's gonna hear her any day now.
40:43Shut up!
40:44Oh, okay?
40:45Security!
40:46Take him out!
40:47Throw me into oncoming traffic for all I...
40:49Oh, right, that's it.
40:50You've gone too far, son.
40:51You know something?
40:52Old folks like us have worked way too hard so you can get where you're at,
40:55and I'm not gonna stand by and let you treat Hank like dirt.
40:57Oh, no, no.
40:58Tom.
40:59Machine's gonna hear her again.
41:02Three...
41:04Two...
41:05One...
41:06Three, two, three...
41:07.
41:08.
41:12Oh, my!
41:13Noted
41:14.
41:15.
41:17.
41:18.
41:19.
41:20.
41:22What happened?
41:23I thought you said I was fixed,
41:25Mr. Twenty- stream.
41:26.
41:27.
41:28.
41:29You are wasting my time.
41:31Tom, where did you find these quacks?
41:32They said they were the best experts around, I swear.
41:36These are your best experts with their empty talk about their high-concept fancy AI software, whatever.
41:45Let me tell you something.
41:46These two bozos and their pink shirts can't hold the torch to Hank Walker.
41:51This sort of stuff never happened back when he was around.
41:54Fucking shut up, because he didn't do anything about the assembly line, okay?
41:58Fix it right now.
41:59I don't care what the fuck you need to do, but if you don't, I'm going to blame it on you.
42:03Hang on, hang on.
42:03I don't know why you're blaming us here, okay?
42:05This is your machine.
42:06Because you're the one who broke it, you asshole.
42:08So fix it.
42:10If you get me fired, I'm going to hack into your code base and make you two pay.
42:13Okay, okay, okay.
42:14Just hang on there real quick, okay?
42:16We'll just look into it, okay?
42:19We'll look into the...
42:21Heat dissipation.
42:27Process.
42:34Heat.
42:35Like what Hank said earlier?
42:39Wait, how did he guess that?
42:41I told you, Tony.
42:43If you had just listened to me, we would have been out the door an hour ago.
42:49Warren Russell!
42:50What is taking so long?
42:51I want results now!
42:53We're on it.
42:54We're working on it right now.
42:55It's going to be done soon.
42:57What's with all the stuttering?
42:59I've said it once, and I'll say it again.
43:02Show me results or don't bother showing up!
43:04Useless SOVs.
43:08All of them!
43:09We bought Webster's because they have the best machines around.
43:12What happened to their operations?
43:15I have to go take a look myself.
43:18Tom, hey, just relax.
43:20Okay, we'll figure something out, all right?
43:21You've got one last fucking shot!
43:25Hank, Hank, Hank.
43:25You said you know what this is, right?
43:27You said this was a heat dissipation process, so that means you know how to fix it, right?
43:31Right?
43:31Of course I can.
43:32All right, well, can you please fix it for us?
43:34All right, whatever they're paying us, we'll give you half.
43:36We just...
43:37What?
43:37We cannot lose our million-dollar machine.
43:40Hey, pal.
43:40You messed up that machine yourself.
43:43It's got nothing to do with Hank.
43:44Yeah, well, we've been thinking about that, and, um...
43:47Look, to just tell you the truth, man, we lied about it from the very beginning.
43:49Okay, times are tough, man, and we tried to extend this job just to get a quick buck.
43:53Yeah, yeah, man, you really fed us our humble pie today, and...
43:57Who knew you would fix the whole thing in ten minutes?
43:59So, Hank, please, you're the only one that can help us with this, man.
44:02Please, please help us.
44:04Oh, where is the machine?
44:06Why is it smoky?
44:10Oh, where is the machine?
44:12Why is it smoky?
44:13Tom, Tom, I thought you hired the ex-
44:15They're here, they're here.
44:16Where are they?
44:17They're here.
44:17Oh, hi, uh, you must be the expert.
44:24Um, we need to fix this machine, we need to fix it fast, we're willing to pay any...
44:29No, no, no, no, but that's the expert, uh...
44:31Yeah, uh, uh, uh, about that, yeah, we can't fix it.
44:37Okay, Hank is the only one that can't.
44:38He is the real expert, not us.
44:41Hank?
44:42Hank Walker?
44:43Hank?
44:44Hank Walker?
44:45You're, you know, he's been on about this fucking bullshit for ages.
44:49Just ignore him.
44:51The only thing Hank is good at is getting fired and lying.
44:55Hold on, you did not just say that.
44:59Not just say that.
45:01Hank was our go-to guy for 40 years before you fired him.
45:06You don't get it.
45:07You could spend all day-
45:08You're gadgets.
45:30You still won't know half the stuff Hank does about Webster's machines.
45:34You know what, your old boss used to rave about how good you were.
45:39But, uh, seeing as we are a tech company now, uh, our production line is under full supervision
45:46of our new AI detection system.
45:48So, uh, your grandpa skills, ha, are no longer needed.
45:54Capisce?
45:54So, you must be the expert.
45:57Uh, we need this up and running fast.
46:00You're-you're not listening to me, okay?
46:02I can't do it.
46:03Pierre can't do it.
46:04Hank here is the only expert.
46:05We're-we're useless.
46:06You heard what Tom said.
46:13This is-this is-this is some old fart that we just fired last week.
46:17An incompetent union pig just like the rest of them.
46:20I wouldn't even trust him to fix my vacuum, let alone a state-of-the-art million-dollar machine.
46:37He's gonna break it.
46:38Look, you're gonna have to find someone else.
46:40I'm done with Webster.
46:41Hey, wait, wait, wait, wait.
46:43You know what?
46:43If Hank's done, then we're out of here too.
46:46We're not touching him.
46:46What?
46:47Why?
46:47He's just a stupid union hack.
46:50Please, Webster, he's counting on you.
46:52We need you.
46:53Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
46:55What if we can pay Hank to fix it?
46:58Like-like purchasing, like a patent method.
47:00What if we can get him to sell his technique?
