00:00God damn it!

00:02Do you see this? They're calling our car a burning coffin. They act like we killed those kids ourselves.

00:07We need to figure out why the door jammed or Webster's going belly-under.

00:11Hear you, but we've already dropped a hundred K on diagnostic tests alone and nothing now.

00:16I don't want to hear your excuses. You're a goddamn Ivy League graduate.

00:20I pay you two hundred thousand dollars a year. Either figure it out or find a new job.

00:25And what the hell do you think you're doing?

00:27Tinkering around. We have to run a whole AI diagnostic system and you're over here fiddling.

00:32With all due respect, Mr. Russell, I know the Webster Corsair, like the back of my hand.

00:38I designed this car back in the day. I'll figure out what's wrong with it.

00:41We have a million-dollar AI diagnostic so we can't turn up anything.

00:45But you're gonna figure it out with a five-dollar wrench?

00:47Well, fancy gadgets and high-minded degrees can be important, but sometimes what you need is plain old smart.

00:54You know what? Go ahead. I got nothing to lose. But if anything goes wrong, it's on your ass.

00:59Don't worry. I won't mess this up. Let's go.

01:03Found it.

01:19See that? From a shirt.

01:24Car owner must have made a legal modification.

01:26Snagged it on a thread during installation.

01:28I jammed the latch during impact.

01:30Webster's not at fault.

01:32You saved the company a few million, buddy.

01:34Let's go show the boss.

01:35You are embarrassing me and you're embarrassing yourself.

01:38I think I found the problem.

01:40Ah! You old son of a bitch! You did it!

01:45Alright, I'm gonna go to the press and tell the board all the good news!

01:48You're a hero, Webster Motor!

01:50Ha ha ha ha ha!

01:55Attention, everyone. This concludes today's shift.

01:58Please shut down your stations and clock out.

02:00Drive safe and we'll see you tomorrow.

02:02Oh, Mr. Walker, can I have a word?

02:11Oh, of course.

02:20Um, this is a car my nephew got from his grandmother.

02:24It's a collector's item, which means it's one of a kind and you're the only one I trust to fix it.

02:29It's funny, last week it was a plane.

02:31This week it's a car.

02:33Your nephew sure likes to break things, huh?

02:36They're just messy, teenagers.

02:38Tell me about it.

02:39My daughter was the same way.

02:41I can have it back to you tomorrow.

02:43Great.

02:44Is your payment?

02:45100k.

02:47Miss Wolf, it's an easy fix.

02:50You don't have to pay me.

02:52Good to see you.

02:54Oh, Hank, wait.

02:58Hank, wait.

03:00I'll be straight with you.

03:05Okay, you've been at Webster for 40 years.

03:07You know cars.

03:08You're one of the best engineers in the world.

03:11But they treat you worse than the mechanics that work for an hourly rate.

03:15Why don't you come work for me at Mach 15?

03:18We're developing a new supercar.

03:20Silver Link's Model A and I want you to be in charge.

03:22The starting pay is $10 million.

03:25That's a lot of money.

03:27But you said so yourself, Miss Wolf.

03:29I've been with the Webster Motors for 40 years.

03:33And any time I have remaining, I just assume it be with them.

03:37Old mucks like me, we're the backbone of Detroit's industry.

03:41You got a good job on your hands and you should give it to a youngster.

03:45As for me, just stick to toy cars.

03:48Hey, look who's early.

03:55Hey, how you doing, man?

03:57Good.

03:58Oh, hey.

04:00Here comes Tom Norris.

04:02You reckon he's here to give us a bonus?

04:04I doubt it.

04:06Move.

04:07Move, move, move, move, move.

04:09All right, all right, all right.

04:10Hey, listen up.

04:11I have an announcement.

04:13Webster Motors has gone through a change of hands.

04:16We've been purchased by Tesalux.

04:21Ah, ah, ah.

04:22Yes, that Tesalux, the EV car company.

04:25Sir, a big man upstairs, now some guy named Elon.

04:28Tesalux is a tech company.

04:31Big emphasis on tech.

04:33So all you boomers, you're fired.

04:39You're fired.

04:40What?

04:41Wait, what?

04:42Wait, wait, wait, wait.

04:44We're all fired.

04:46That can't be right.

04:47Oh, you need me to spell it out for you?

04:49Fine.

04:51Webster Motors has purchased a cutting edge AI detection system from Apex AI for over 10 billion.

04:58And let me tell you, this software makes all of you has-been boomers look like a bunch of fucking amateurs.

05:04It'll do more for this company in 10 minutes than you could do in 10 years.

05:10So, go home.

05:12Wait for death to come knocking.

05:15Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

05:16Now hold on.

05:17That ain't right.

05:18Look, we are the backbone of Webster Motors, right?

05:21We built this company up from the ground.

05:23Hell, some of us were here before Webster was.

05:25You can't just let us go.

05:26That is, eh, eh, eh, that is workplace discrimination.

05:29Right, boys?

05:30Yeah, right.

05:31We're gonna fucking sue you.

05:32Well, it's not ageism if you're just bad.

05:35We're a tech company now.

05:37We need computer people who write AI that does what you do, but they do it better and faster.

05:43Face it, this is the 21st century.

05:46Everything is fast and digital.

05:48It's time for you washed up old farts to pack your little bags and fuck off.

05:53Because like it or not, you've been replaced.

05:55I might not know anything about AI, but I do know one thing.

05:59These machines here, they're finicky.

06:01And unless real people are monitoring the assembly line at all times,

06:05it's only a matter of time before something goes boom.

06:09And all production stops.

06:11That's right.

06:12What do you mean everything goes boom?

06:15I've worked here for 40 years.

06:17I know these machines.

06:19They need to be checked on and re-serviced.

06:21Otherwise, you're gonna lose billions.

06:23Oh, okay.

06:25So you're saying the reason that I can't fire you old fucks is because I need someone to watch the machine all day or it's gonna go boom?

06:34That's right.

06:35And you better make sure they have the experience to know what they're looking for.

06:38Oh, holy fuck.

06:40You're a real fucking shameless one, you know.

06:43I know you won't be able to get another job, but that doesn't mean you can make shit up either.

06:47I'm not making anything up.

06:49I'm telling you how it is based on my experience.

06:52All right.

06:53Old man, I gotta go.

06:54All right?

06:55But don't think you're anything special because of yesterday.

06:58I downloaded the source code from the diagnostic test myself and that car was perfectly fine.

07:03You lucked out with that screw.

07:05So all you need to do is go back and rot in hospice.

07:10No, no, no.

07:11How dare you?

07:12How dare you?

07:13We built this city with our own hands.

07:15We are the ones that brought industry to Detroit.

07:17Yeah.

07:18We did all that hard labor so kids like you could go run off to college.

07:21And now this is how you're gonna treat us?

07:23Shut up!

07:24Right?

07:25Shut up!

07:26You disgusting old fucking hicks.

07:28Or I'll call the cops.

07:29As of now you're fired.

07:31So this is trespassing.

07:33Tom, you need to tell the assembly line supers about the maintenance.

07:38If something happens to one of these machines, it's gonna cost Webster millions.

07:42And it's a safety hazard.

07:43I do not give a fuck about your experience.

07:46That is all subjective bullshit.

07:48We have the cold hard facts right here.

07:51Our new AI detection system will be fully operational in a few short days.

07:56You really think it can't handle a few finicky machines?

07:59It'll have them back in tip top shape before you old schmucks need to get your gloves on.

08:04Now hurry up and scram or you can forget about your final fucking paycheck.

08:14It's alright.

08:15It's alright.

08:16Let it go, okay?

08:17Look, you warned him plenty about the assembly line, huh?

08:19It's his own fault now if you won't listen.

08:21Come on, fellas.

08:23Let's go.

08:24Let's get out of here.

08:25Guy's a creep.
