00:00Grandpa!
00:02Grandpa, I miss you so much, I didn't even get to peel you all off the whole week.
00:14I know, kiddo. Your grandpa was busy at work.
00:17But, I'm gonna have a lot more time now.
00:19I can come over every day if you want.
00:21Yeah?
00:24Oh, you're getting strong.
00:25Dad, shouldn't you be at work?
00:28I'm actually not gonna be working there anymore. Webster laid me off.
00:34You got fired?
00:36Fuck.
00:38What are we gonna do about the mortgage now?
00:40Mortgage? What are you talking about?
00:42The mortgage for this house, you stupid old fuck.
00:45Hannah and I have been using your paycheck to pay off the mortgage.
00:48What are we gonna do now? They're gonna foreclose on us.
00:50Jesse, I've been giving you my paycheck since you and Helen got married.
00:55Why isn't the mortgage paid off yet?
00:57Because a whole year's worth of your salary didn't even last me a single night in Vegas.
01:02So you were gambling.
01:03I bust my back ten hours a day and what?
01:07You gambled it all away in one night on craps?
01:10Poker?
01:11I can't believe you two.
01:12Alright? I've given everything for you guys.
01:14I stopped drinking coffee for you, alright?
01:16I barely scrape by on $300 a month.
01:20And you flush it down the drain gambling?
01:23Look old man, I don't care.
01:26But Helen and I need the money to pay off the mortgage.
01:29And until you get another job, I want you to stay away from Audrey.
01:33Oh, Grandpa!
01:36What's come into you, Jesse?
01:38I'm near retirement, okay?
01:41What's an old man like me supposed to do?
01:44You and Helen and little Audrey, you guys are all that I have.
01:48I just want to see this little girl grow up, okay?
01:51Please.
01:52I already lost my wife.
01:55Don't talk about my mom.
01:57If you weren't so stubborn, if you would have just left Detroit when you had the chance,
02:01she would have had better insurance coverage and not die.
02:05I would be in a better place too.
02:07And now we're all stuck in this hell hole because of you.
02:14You're useless.
02:16My buddy Tom Norris got promoted to senior engineer in a year!
02:20You've been there for decades!
02:22And you're still just some low-level mechanic.
02:24Grandpa!
02:25Now get out!
02:26Now stay away from Audrey!
02:28Grandpa!
02:29Grandpa!
02:30You want to see Audrey again?
02:32Who brings us a nice, fat paycheck?
02:35Grandpa!
02:36Jesse's great.
02:37Got a job.
02:38You owe that to us.
02:39Now go dumpster dive if you have to.
02:41Grandpa!
02:42Grandpa!
02:43Grandpa!
02:46Grandpa!
02:47Grandpa!
02:48I just didn't want to give up on my city.
02:50Is that...
02:51so wrong?
02:56Oh, look at that stinky hobo!
02:58Let's cross the street before he gets all his germs on us.
03:01I guess this will have to be my dinner.
03:02I guess this will have to be my dinner.
03:11What?
03:12Holy shit!
03:13Nick Walker!
03:14The rock star engineer behind our 1987 game.
03:17I guess this will have to be my dinner.
03:21What?
03:22Holy shit!
03:23Nick Walker!
03:24The rock star engineer behind our 1987 Webster Corsair.
03:28What are you doing?
03:29Eating out of a dumpster.
03:30Tom, you know this guy.
03:31Yep.
03:32Fired him yesterday.
03:33He's a piece of shit mechanic who wouldn't stop going on about, oh, the assembly line's
03:37going to explode.
03:38So I got rid of him.
03:39Don't laughing matter, Tom.
03:40I'm serious.
03:41If you're not careful, that whole assembly line is going to malfunction.
03:44Oh, fuck, man!
03:45Still stuck on that?
03:46That is bullshit!
03:47Hank Walker.
03:48They may have kept you around for 40 years because they're dumb.
03:51But I know you're nothing special.
03:52It's just going to be out of a dumpster.
03:53Tom, you know this guy.
03:54Yep.
03:55Fired him yesterday.
03:56He's a piece of shit mechanic who wouldn't stop going on about, oh, the assembly line's
03:57going to explode.
03:58So I got rid of him.
03:59Don't laughing matter, Tom.
04:00I'm serious.
04:01If you're not careful, that whole assembly line is going to malfunction.
04:03Oh, fuck, man!
04:04Still stuck on that?
04:05That is bullshit!
04:06Hank Walker, they may have kept you around for 40 years because they're dumb.
04:12But I know you're nothing special.
04:13Special if you were anything like me you'd at least be a manager. Well, they did ask me
04:18But I turned him down because I want to work with cars. That's what I do best
04:23And I don't need some empty title, but Tom you have got to listen to me
04:27Okay, have your guys watch the line. Otherwise, it's gonna cost Webster millions. What a joke. I
