Short filmTranscript
00:00Figure it out, our Webster Motors is 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 Tesalox, big tech company.
00:17So all you boomers, you're fired.
00:20Dubs, you got fired.
00:22You never really had the money, did you?
00:24We're in a car!
00:26I want you to come look for me, I'm not 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?
00:42Because every car performs better, stays at Mech 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?
01:01Constantly explosion, killing three college students.
01:05As 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.
01:17We need to figure out why the door jammed or Webster's going belly under.
01:19Here's your book.
01:20We've already dropped 100K on diagnostic tests alone.
01:24And nothing can knock 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.
01:31Either figure it out or find a new job.
01:34And what the hell do you think you're doing?
01:37Tickering 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 school.
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 can't stop this fire.
02:18I won't lose hands of this deep desire.
02:27Found it.
02:30See that?
02:32From a shirt, our owner must have made a legal modification, snagged down a thread during
02:36installation, and jammed the latch during impact.
02:39The Webster's not at fault.
02:40You saved the company a few million, buddy.
02:43Go 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, Webster Motor.
03:05Attention, everyone.
03:06This concludes today's shift.
03:08Please shut down your stations and clock out.
03:10Drive safe, and we'll see you tomorrow.
03:18Oh, Mr. Walker.
03:19Can I have a word?
03:21Oh.
03:22Of 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
03:38to 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.
03:58It's Wolf.
03:59It's an easy fix.
04:00You don't have to pay me.
04:02Good to see you.
04:03Hank, 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.
04:23Why don't you come work for me at Mach 15?
04:28We're developing a new supercar.
04:30Silver Link's Model A.
04:31I don't 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, Ms. Wolf.
04:41I'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, we're the backbone of Detroit's industry.
04:51And you got a good job on your hands.
04:53And you should give it to a youngster.
04:55As for me, just stick to toy cars.
05:04Hey, look who's early.
05:06Hey, how you doing, man?
05:08Oh, hey.
05:09Hank, here comes Tom Loris.
05:12You reckon he's here to give us some bonus?
05:15I doubt it.
05:16Move.
05:17Move.
05:18Move.
05:18Move.
05:18All right, all right, all 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's Tesalux, the EV car company.
05:34Sir, a big man upstairs, now some guy named Elon.
05:38Tesalux is a tech company.
05:41Big emphasis on tech.
05:42So all you boomers, you're fired.
05:49You're fired.
05:50What?
05:51Wait, what?
05:52Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
05:54We're all fired.
05:56That can't be right.
05:57Oh, 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 billion.
06:09And let me tell you, this software makes all of you has-been boomers look like a bunch of fucking amateurs.
06:14It'll do more for this company in 10 minutes than you could do in 10 years.
06:20So, go home.
06:22Wait for death to come knocking.
06:25Now, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
06:26Now, hold on.
06:27That 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?
06:40Right.
06:41We're gonna fucking sue you.
06:43Well, 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 faster.
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 and fuck off, because, like it or not, you'll be replaced.
07:06I 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 line at all times,
07:16it's only a matter of time before something goes boom, and all production stops.
07:22That'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.
07:35Oh, okay.
07:36So, to your sake, the reason that I can't fire you, oh fuck, is because I need someone to watch the machine all day or it's gonna go boom?
07:46That's right.
07:46And you better make sure they have the experience to know what they're looking for.
07:49Oh, holy fuck.
07:51You'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 up 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?
08:05But 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, 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.
08:28Yeah.
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, right?
08:35Shut up.
08:36You disgusting old fucking hicks.
08:39Why don't I call the cops?
08:41As of now, you're fired.
08:42So this is trespassing.
08:44Tom, you need to tell the assembly line supers about the maintenance.
08:49If something happens to one of these machines, it's gonna cost Webster a million.
08:53And it's a safety hazard.
08:54I don't know if you 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 need to get your gloves on.
09:14Now hurry up and scram, or you can forget about your final fucking paychecks.
09:25All 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...
09:43Miffle, Miffle, can't you see that I am on the phone?
09:46Webster Motors just fired that old car mechanic.
09:48He 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 C.C. Mills has 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.
10:04I'll offer him a job with the pay ceiling.
10:07There's no ceiling.
10:08I'll pay him whatever he wants.
10:10I'll have you, Hank.
10:14Hey, I'll catch up with you, Hank.
10:18Hi, I'm looking for Mr. Walker.
10:20Oh, Hank?
10:21Yeah, he just missed him.
10:22He went to go see his daughter.
10:26Grandpa!
10:32Grandpa, I missed you so much.
10:34I didn't even get to kill you all last for 40 years.
10:38I know, kiddo.
10:39Your grandpa was busy at work.
10:41But, you're going to have a lot more time now.
10:43You can come over every day if you want.
10:45Yeah?
10:46Ah!
10:48Oh, you're getting strong.
10:49Dad!
10:51Shouldn't you be at work?
10:52I'm actually not going to be working there anymore.
10:55Webster laid me off.
10:57You got fired?
11:01Fuck!
11:01What 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.
11:26So you were gambling it.
11:28I bust my back ten hours a day and, what, you gambled it all away in one night on craps?
11:34Poker?
11:35I can't believe you two.
11:37All right?
11:37I've given everything for you guys.
11:39I stopped drinking coffee for you, all right?
11:41I 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!
12:01What'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.
12:29I would be in a better place, too.
12:32And now we're all stuck in this hellhole because of you.
12:38You're useless.
12:39My buddy Tom Norris got promoted to senior engineer in a year.
12:44You've been there for decades.
12:46And you're still just some low-level mechanic.
12:50Now get out.
12:51Now stay away from Audrey.
12:55You want to see Audrey again?
12:57Who brings a nice, fat paycheck?
13:00Yes, he's right.
13:01Good job.
13:03You 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.
13:37I haven't eaten since last night.
13:50Guess this will have to be my dinner.
13:51Holy shit.
14:01Greg Walker.
14:02The rock star engineer behind our 1987 Webster Corsair.
14:07What are you doing?
14:08Eating out of a dumpster.
14:10Tom, 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.
14:20What's the laughing matter, Tom?
14:23I'm serious.
14:24If you're not careful, that whole assembly line is going to malfunction.
14:27Oh, fuck, man.
14:28You still stuck on that?
14:30That is bullshit.
14:32Hank Walker.
14:33They 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.
14:42But I turned them down because 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?
14:53Have your guys watch the line.
14:54Otherwise, it's going to cost Webster millions.
14:56What a joke!
14:58I can't, are you?
15:00Look, this is our newest software.
15:03All the lights are green.
15:05Green means good.
15:07See?
15:07Nothing can possibly go wrong.
15:11Warning.
15:11Malfunction detected.
15:13Initiating emergency stop protocol.
15:17No way this bastard got it right.
15:19What the hell happened here?
15:24The machine, it's smoky.
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.
15:33If 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.
15:50What 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 just fucking fired?
16:17Fuck off!
16:17This whole plant isn't going to suddenly cease to function because a few wrinkly old farts got laid off.
16:24That's bullshit.
16:24Now fucking fix it.
16:26Faster!
16:26Miss 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 mills?
16:39We already lost one full production line.
16:41If we lose another, that could mean hundreds of millions of dollars of awesome profits.
16:45Look, you keep an eye on the factory, and I will go find Hank because he's 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 a human.
17:00The machine will never replace a 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.
17:21Sir, 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.
17:37So this is Apex AI's new detection software?
17:40It looks brilliant.
17:44Jesus, 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?
18:11I mean, we might have the solution.
18:13It's just the pay that you're offering, though.
18:16$2,000 for an eight-hour workday?
18:18Then, yeah.
18:19It just needs a reset.
18:21They're asking for even more.
18:23Ah.
18:24Mr. Pierre, Mr. Espan, money is not an issue.
18:27I will give you $2 million each for your work here today.
18:30And 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.
18:35Good-looking.
18:35All right, fixing machines?
18:37That's our job.
18:37It's a very tough and thankless and very, very difficult job, but we'll get it up in the money 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?
18:49Get in there.
18:50See?
18:51Our new AI tool has a solution for everything.
18:57Step 37, this one's...
18:59That's what it said!
19:00Jeez, this isn't ever happening 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 Lock 15?
19:16Oh, perfect.
19:18Those guys are our golden ticket to fixing this machine.
19:21I'll head over right now.
19:29Alrighty.
19:30Fire it up.
19:33No!
19:36Not yet.
19:38You can't.
19:39You gotta 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, 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, can you get your guys to get him out of here?
20:10Okay, 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 could 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 hood fart like you're going to do?
20:38You may have your fancy AI, but these machines, they were built by people, and they're meant to be maintenance 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?
21:07Isn't that the genius supercar engineer that Boss went to hire?
21:10I need to call her.
21:12Poor hair is in the industry.
21:14Oh, you was a custodian, right?
21:15What makes you think you know more than someone with a master's degree, man?
21:18You really, really think that you know more than this billion-dollar AI detection system.
21:25You'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, you disgusting old fart.
22:04Here we are thinking you're just some genius engineer.
22:07You ain't nothing but a scammer.
22:09Mom, Norris, something must have gone very wrong at Webster for you to be here at a competitor.
22:15I told you to wash those machines.
22:16Shut up!
22:18You spent the last 40 years swapping out blinker fluid.
22:22What do you know about cars?
22:24Poor engineering.
22:26You see this?
22:27This blows you out of the fucking water.
22:30What did you say to Hank Walker?
22:31Oh my gosh, why is Voss here?
22:35Oh, Miss Wolf?
22:39Hank, I'm asking you as a front.
22:41If you can fix this, I owe you a big one.
22:44We have a huge order coming in and we have to fill it.
22:46Or we recontract and we get sued into oblivion.
22:50Don't worry, Miss Wolf.
22:51Wait, Miss Wolf.
22:52Out of respect.
22:52I'm so sorry.
22:53Do you really trust him?
22:56You'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.
23:08But Hank is one of the best auto engineers in the world.
23:15And he's been fixing machines since before you were born.
23:18Are we looking at the same guy here?
23:20Miss Wolf, I am from one of your competitors.
23:24But I would hate for you to get scams.
23:26You got fired from Webster because he is worthless.
23:30I'm sorry.
23:30Who are you?
23:31And what are you doing in my factory?
23:33I'm a senior engineer at Webster.
23:36And a graduate from MIT.
23:38I'm happy to give you my advice, Miss Wolf.
23:41Hank is useless.
23:43He's going to break that machine.
23:45And he can't afford to pay you back.
23:49Tom 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.
23:56To 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
24:05for a seasoned, experienced mechanic.
24:08Not even AI.
24:11Sure thing, buddy.
24:13And if you fuck it up, I want you to post online that you're a stupid old fuck and a useless liar.
24:20And then, I want you to come back and I want you to lick my shoes clean.
24:30You shut your mouth.
24:31I don't care who you are.
24:33Miss Wolf.
24:34But if you continue to disrespect my guest, I will have security toss you out.
24:37He was my subordinate.
24:38And I know exactly what he is capable of.
24:41Which is to say, nothing.
24:44Bye.
24:45Miss Wolf.
24:46Miss Wolf, it's okay.
24:49I'm warning you right now.
24:51Let's shake on it, Ben.
24:52I bet.
24:58Let's see what you can do.
24:59Oh, fuck.
25:00Hank, I'll make damn sure the next generation learns that experience is the one asset no machine
25:07can replace.
25:08And I'll prove the value of every fellow worker who's built this industry in Detroit.
25:14Watch them learn.
25:22Hank!
25:24What the hell do you think you're doing?
25:26Jesse.
25:27Grandpa!
25:29Audrey.
25:31Tom Covey.
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 $1,000 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.
25:56And you are never, ever going to see Helen or Audrey again.
26:04I don't want to tell you to see the 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.
26:14Not million-dollar heavy machinery.
26:15I mean, even the freaking AI is stumped.
26:18How the hell are you going to know how to fix it?
26:21Helen, what happened to you?
26:24He used to believe in me.
26:26He used to say, you can fix anything.
26:29I started working with cars because you love 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, what happened to you?
26:43Helen, why are you like this?
26:47I was six, okay?
26:49But now I'm a grown-ass woman.
26:52And I became this way because I have a deadbeat father
26:55who's too afraid to leave a dying city
26:56and let his whole family suffer with him.
26:59Look, if you still care about me at all,
27:11stop whatever you're doing.
27:12You already ruined my life.
27:15My mom died because of you.
27:18You're just a nobody.
27:20Stuck in a dead-end job in an industry
27:22that's way past its glory days.
27:24And you're still waiting for a miracle.
27:26Bad mommy!
27:27No, I trust you, grandfather.
27:30You can get the machine working again.
27:33Thank you for still believing in me, Audrey.
27:36Give it up, Hank.
27:38You can't fix shit, and you know it.
27:41That combination mill is worth millions.
27:44And your daughter's property won't even start to cover it.
27:50Hank, don't worry about the damages.
27:52This is my company, and I trust you.
27:54If you mess anything up, I will eat the cost,
27:57and you won't owe a single cent.
28:00A deal is a deal.
28:02And if Hank fixes this machine,
28:04you owe him and everybody else you laid off an apology.
28:07Well, let me show you how it's done.
28:09I do not give a seat if you're a man.
28:13Okay.
28:17Thank you, sir.
28:32all done holy shit nine minutes and 41 seconds i mean how on earth did you manage that
28:46i used to do it all the time back at webster i'd fix 20 cnc machines one afternoon on a bad day
28:5320 of these things even with our ai detection software it would take a week to do that
28:58thank you so so much there aren't words for what you did you just bailed us out of bankruptcy
29:08no no you lost because i just put some algorithms in and my data it's showing me that there's no
29:15way you could have fixed this machine in 10 minutes you're a liar i knew it i was on you from the very
29:20beginning you greasy old art bag you didn't even turn it on did you and our processing unit is still
29:25going so you have zero proof that you even did anything yeah yeah who's to say it was it was
29:29even gonna run huh a clown all these union rats are the same they're like the vermin of detroit
29:36that's right mechanics like me we're the backbone of detroit just watch when i pull that lever there
29:47it's gonna start up like a gem ready
29:53looks like your little pet project didn't do much better grab a puke bag because you're gonna lick
30:11my shoes clean wait to see
30:16it's okay everything's reading completely safe but you actually did it in less than 10 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 can do it
30:48thank you so so much i mean you just brought us back billions you saved mach 15
30:55i was happy to do it so what if he didn't fix it he's still unemployed and he's still not bringing
31:01home any money he really fixed it like he said he would i think i would again like to offer you a
31:13position i want you as my lead supercar engineer the starting salary 10 million dollars
31:21that is unheard of for an engineer because i'm not an idiot like you
31:34i've and i recognize a diamond in the rough but i see it
31:37no way it actually says 10 million dollars
31:46someone is really offering to pay millions for my dad and here i thought he was old and useless
31:54i was so wrong about him
31:56and he's worth every single penny that's coming
32:01and i'm offering him company shares
32:05sign it
32:12hank after everything you've done for this industry
32:18this whole thing
32:21i can't thank you enough but i can't in good conscience take 10 million dollars
32:27no no no no no no wait hold that thought hold that thought yes you can hank and you should
32:33that lady said that you were worth every single sense it means you're a pro i've always known
32:39that you'd have a knack for this engineering thing but this this this proves it
32:44dad if you take that money you pay off our mortgage but we only have a hundred thousand left
32:50and audrey we could afford to send her to the best school and buy that pony she's always wanted
32:55yes yes yes yes yes yes just think about it if you'd be working at mach 15 you'd have dibs on
33:01all their supercars i have been itching to get my hands on a new ride and just think how cool it
33:08would be for audrey to go to school in one of those beasts funny i don't remember the two of
33:15you treating hank this way when you first walked in here i'm not buying it there is no way that he
33:22fixed that machine
33:26how are you talking about he just fixed it we all watched him fix it it wasn't him who was it he just
33:32tapped in a few nuts and bolts you think that's gonna magically solve anything this machine is only
33:39working of esteban and pierre's ai software all we had to do was turn it on and it would have been
33:44working as good as new like it is now hank just swooped in and took all the credit yeah that's right
33:51all you did was pull a lever meanwhile pierre and i did everything else you jerk you've lied to us
33:58that's why you didn't want us to turn it on before because you knew it would work
34:02you just wanted to steal our thunder miss wolf that is unacceptable behavior for a future hire
34:07that's not what happened and you all know that
34:10tom norris where the hell are you when are those experts gonna get here ish i i i am on my way
34:23they're coming right now boss i promise they better show up soon because if we don't get it fixed by the
34:29end of the day you are fired i don't have time to waste on you freaks anymore mr pierre would you
34:40mind popping over to webster motors with me we're just in a little bit of a little bit of a pickle with
34:45one of our machines and we could we could really use your expertise i promise you we would treat you
34:50with the utmost respect unlike these rude idiots in map 15. yeah you know what sure
34:57because everybody else is sided with this fake mechanic over here let's go somewhere where our
35:01skills will be appreciated thank you kindly um it's no use they're not going to be able to fix your
35:08machine well i beg to differ i think they have real skill and talent unlike you yeah hey while you're busy
35:16pulling levers and flipping buttons and doing whatever you're doing we do all the real work
35:23and you know what you're the one who broke that machine so you're going to come back with me to
35:28webster's and fix it we'll find out soon enough hell no we won't go hell no we won't go hell no we won't go
35:42hell no we won't go hell no we won't go hell no we won't go hell no we won't go hell no we won't go
35:59hey hey what's going on here we're processing the layoffs what do you think man hey hey come on
36:04join us i i can't today they're here doing some repairs and i'm tagging along to make sure nothing
36:09bad goes out one of the assembly line machines malfunction they're malfunction already it serves
36:17them right you know i bet they're running around in there like a bunch of headless chickens can't do
36:21anything right without us huh you know what i gotta see it for myself come on i'm going in with you
36:26keep going fellas hell no we won't go hell no we won't go we won't go fix it it's what you're
36:37paying for awesome oh i brought them oh good let's see here they are i'm gonna see it yes yes yes
36:48ted hank what are you doing here we laid you off came to watch you crash and burn that's what yeah i
36:53wanted to see how things were holding up now they're using this uh faulty ai instead of us
36:59experienced folk i'll deal with you later tom boss just called he's breathing down our neck if we don't
37:04get this figured out and fixed we're both fired please you're the experts right you gotta help us
37:08yeah relax tom lucky for you we got the world's best ai on our side so we'll just get this bad boy
37:13started up quickly and uh we don't know what no you got this all wrong okay it's a heat issue
37:20it's not something one little ai test can resolve if you want to get to the root of this problem
37:25it's gonna take some time
37:32without your heat and okay because 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 look i'm telling you
37:43tom you got to do something about the heat otherwise it's just gonna keep error okay okay that's
37:48nonsense okay this guy doesn't have the slightest idea of the powers of ai tom i'm telling you do not
37:53waste your time on clowns like him all right success is imminent once production is back online i'm going
37:59to expose your lies to hell and back online and then everyone's gonna hate you and mob 15 will have
38:06to fire you for pr you better pray they know what they're doing because it certainly doesn't look like
38:09oh yeah yeah yeah all right turn it on no you can't oh yeah yeah yeah yeah you and your heat you know
38:32what buddy screw you okay i've checked this time everything's completely fine so get with the times
38:38old man all our checks are ai driven now and the experts are saying the heat is not an issue so turn it
38:45on turn it on i said turn it on
39:06oh see what did i say i'm telling you boober we don't need you
39:11it may be running fine right now but it's just going to keep overheating until it malfunctions
39:19again buddy do you think anyone here actually cares about what you're saying you're fucking screwed
39:24buddy because everyone knows that you're a liar you can't fix shit and that you locked out back in
39:30that 15 with their machine yeah you know what hank when i first met you i did think that you were
39:34something special now i agree with tom you're nothing but a fraud i knew it i knew it from the
39:41moment i saw you know you wasn't no genius engineer can't believe me you make me sick over here comparing
39:48yourself to us please anyway thank you gentlemen so much for coming in you saved me and tom's asses
39:55oh yeah no it's just part of the job all right um i'm sure tom here lets you know that we charge uh
40:01uh 20. that was 20k for what hang on i'm getting the impression here that you don't think that our
40:08work was was worth it last time i checked i just saved your ass from getting fired again no not at
40:15all mr aspen the way i see it 20k plenty of reasonable i mean 20k got us results which is
40:22much more than what hank did for 10 million twiddling his little thumbs you know i can't believe you'd lie to
40:28the ceo of mach 15 a woman why were you i'd call her right now and tell her everything before i get
40:36sued speak for yourself tom this machine's gonna hear her any day now shut up okay security kick him
40:47out throw me into oncoming traffic for all i all right that's it you've gone too far you know something
40:52old folks like us have worked way too hard so you could get where you're at and i'm not gonna stand by
40:56and let you treat hands like dirt no no no tom she's gonna hear her again three two one
41:10i thought you said it was fixed mr 20k it was fixed okay i don't know what happened it just
41:28let me see something you are wasting my time tom but where did you find these cracks they're the best
41:34experts around i swear these are your best experts with their empty talk about their high
41:41concept fits ai software whatever let me tell you something these two bozos and their pink shirts
41:48can't hold the torch to hank walker this 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 fix it right now i don't
41:59care what the fuck you need to do but if you don't i'm gonna blame it on you hang on hang on
42:03i don't know why you're blaming us here okay this is your machine because you're the one who broke it
42:07you asshole so fix it if you get me fired i'm gonna hack into your code base and make you two
42:13hey okay okay just hang on there real quick okay we'll just just look into it okay um we'll look into the uh
42:20heat dissipation process
42:34heat like what hank said earlier
42:39oh wait how did he guess that i told you tom if you had just listened to me we would have been out
42:45the door an hour ago lord russell what is taking so long i want results now we're we're on it we're

43:00and i'll say it again show me results or don't bother showing up useless sobs all of them we bought
43:09websers because they have the best machines around what happened to their operations i have to go take
43:16a look myself tom hey just just relax okay we'll figure something out all right you've got one last
43:22fucking shot hey hey hey you you said you know what this is right you said this was a heat dissipation
43:28process so that means you know how to fix it right right of course i can all right well can you please
43:33fix it for us all right whatever they're paying us we'll give you half we just what we cannot lose our
43:38million dollar machine hey pal you messed up that machine yourself got nothing to do with hey yeah
43:44well we've been thinking about that and um look to just tell you the truth man we lied about it from
43:48the very beginning okay times are tough man and we try to extend this job just to get quick yeah yeah

44:15experts they're here they're here where are they they're here oh hi uh you must be the expert uh we
44:25need to fix this machine we need to fix it fast we're willing to pay me no no no no that's the expert uh
44:31yeah uh about that yeah we can't fix it okay hank is the only one that can he is the real expert not
44:39us hank hank walker hank hank walker you know he's been on about this fucking bullshit for ages just
44:50ignore him the only thing hank is good at is getting fired and lying hold on you did not just say that
44:57not just say that hank was our go-to guy for 40 years before you fired him you don't get it you could
45:07spend all day
45:29gadgets you still won't know half the stuff hank does about webster's machines that's you know what
45:36your old boss used to rave about how good you were but uh seeing as we are a tech company now uh
45:43our production line is under full supervision of our new ai detection system so uh your grandpa skills
45:52are no longer needed capiche so you must be the expert uh we need this up and running fast you're not
46:01listening to me okay i can't do it pierre can't do it hank here is the only expert we're useless
46:11you heard what tom said this is this is some old fart that we just fired last week
46:17he's an incompetent union pig just like the rest of them
46:32i 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 you're gonna have to find something else i'm done with webster hey wait
46:42wait wait wait wait wait you know what if hank's done then we're out of here too we're not touching
46:46it what why he's just a stupid union hack please webster he's counting on you we need you wait wait
