00:00Hi, I just wanted to introduce myself. Nice to meet you.
00:05Um, I'm Aiden.
00:07You're the new kid, right? Whose dad just brought the EV battery factory.
00:12Uh, yeah.
00:15Yeah, your dad just fired my dad last week.
00:18I mean, he's been working there for over 15 years,
00:21and apparently your dad's replacing all workers with AI robots.
00:25Wow, look, I'm so sorry. I don't have any business in any family matters.
00:29Well, your family business just screwed over my family.
00:32So, no, you can't hang with us.
00:35We don't associate ourselves with heartless one-percenters.
00:44The scores on today's pop quiz about the periodic table were terrible.
00:50The only bright spot is our newest student.
00:53Aiden here had a perfect score.
00:55It's easy when you can afford the private tutors.
00:57Isn't that right, Richie Rich?
01:00None of that now.
01:01In this class, we show respect.
01:04And we work together.
01:05Which brings me on to your next assignment.
01:09We'll be breaking into groups
01:11and writing about an element on the periodic table.
01:14Oh, right.
01:19We have an odd number now.
01:20Aiden, why don't you work with Emily and Nathan?
01:24You know what?
01:25I'm good.
01:27I could just work by myself.
01:28Nonsense.
01:29There's nothing wrong with a group of three.
01:31Wanna bet?
01:32Welcome home, Aiden.
01:41Hey, Maggie.
01:42Welcome home, sir.
01:44Forgive me for my lateness.
01:45I was just julianning some vegetables for dinner.
01:48Gordon, there's no need to cut vegetables in my account.
01:50It's fine.
01:51But, sir, it is my main directive to provide you with balanced meals.
01:54If you like, I can cut the vegetables into fun shapes.
01:58Perhaps dinosaurs.
02:00Oh, no, it's fine.
02:01Dad!
02:03It's so good to see you.
02:04I thought you were going to be out of town for my birthday.
02:08Your father is out of town.
02:09I am his AI avatar.
02:16Hey, son.
02:17Did you get my surprise?
02:19Yeah, some surprise, Dad.
02:21I thought you were going to be here for my birthday.
02:23I got you the next best thing.
02:25A one-to-one version of myself.
02:27Amazing, isn't it?
02:29Oh, come on.
02:31Cheer up.
02:32Don't forget.
02:33You could be here traveling the world with me if you had just accepted my offer.
02:38I still don't understand your decision.
02:41Yeah, of course you don't understand.
02:42Well, the offer still stands.
02:45Quit that crazy school and come work for me.
02:48One day you'll be running this company.
02:51You might as well start now.
02:52Um, I'll think about it, Dad.
02:56Bye.
03:03Dad, I'm home!
03:09Dad?
03:10No, no.
03:13All the other factories are moving towards AI.
03:20What am I supposed to do, hmm?
03:22We were already living paycheck to paycheck as it was.
03:27Don't worry.
03:28I'll figure something out.
03:29Pardon me, sir.
03:39Chess is not traditionally a solo game.
03:41Would you like to play against me?
03:42Yeah, no thanks.
03:44You'd just let me win, Winston.
03:47I could raise my skill level exponentially and wipe the floor with you.
03:51Ha ha.
03:53And that's somehow better?
03:59Actually, I came to check in on you.
04:01Was your first day of school a success?
04:02I don't know.
04:04Nothing changes, Winston.
04:06No friends.
04:07No family.
04:08I mean, it's just me and a bunch of robots.
04:11No offense.
04:12None taken, sir.
04:14I'm sorry you had no luck acquiring new acquaintances.
04:17It's just kind of hard when my dad fired all his town employees.
04:20Turns out not everybody's eager to embrace AI when it costs them their jobs.
04:24The rich are getting rich and the poor are getting poorer because of it.
04:27Maybe you could help your classmates by presenting them with a financial offering.
04:31What, do you want me to give them money, Winston?
04:34If the families are struggling financially, as you suggested,
04:37I think they would welcome the gesture.
04:39You could put cash in your birthday party invitations.
04:43I just ran a simulation.
04:45This tactic has a 97% probability of success.
04:49The solution is derived from a million possible outcomes.
04:53Okay, if you say so.
04:56Of course.
04:57It is my fear that Aiden is slipping deeper into a depression.
05:11What?
05:12He's fine.
05:13Just another grumpy teenager.
05:15There are millions like him complaining online every day.
05:19I beg your pardon, but I have been with him longer than anyone here,
05:22and it is my observation that he's growing more distant and more sad.
05:26What you need to observe is that I am the boy's AI father, and father knows best.
05:34So when I say there's nothing to worry about, there's nothing to worry about.
05:38Understood?
05:38Come on.
05:52What do you want?
05:53Look, I feel like we got off to a bad start yesterday.
05:55And I'd like to apologize.
05:59Here, I'd like you guys to have these.
06:01This is for you and for yourself.
06:06What is this?
06:08It's money.
06:08For you.
06:09Well, for everyone else.
06:11Man, I can get a new pair of kicks with this.
06:14Thanks, man.
06:15Damn, man.
06:16So that's your plan.
06:18You think you can just buy our friendship because you're Mr. Moneybags,
06:23and we're just a bunch of poor, helpless bums.
06:25No, no, no, not at all.
06:26Look, I didn't mean it like that.
06:29I just wanted to make up for what my father did.
06:31Well, you can't.
06:32Your dad is a selfish, money-obsessed creep,
06:36and it's clear that the golden apple doesn't fall that far from the tree.
06:39And you know what?
06:40There's actually no way that any of us would ever go to your little birthday party.
06:46Isn't that right, guys?
06:49See you, trust fund.
06:51Guys, come on.
06:52As you'll see in this experiment,
06:57the acidic juice of the lemon acts as an electrolyte,
07:00allowing an oxidation reduction reaction to occur.
07:04This will convert the chemical energy into electrical energy
07:07and power your light bulbs.
07:10Aidan, why aren't you with your group?
07:15Yeah, so I don't think that's a good idea.
07:17It'll be a good idea if your group wants a passing grade for this assignment.
07:21You all need to work together.
07:30We don't need no lemons.
07:32Why are you being so mean to me?
07:34I told you, I don't have control over my father.
07:36But you're benefiting from it, aren't you?
07:38Like your shirt.
07:39How much does your shirt even cost?
07:40I...
07:41I don't know.
07:42Exactly.
07:43Because rich people don't know the prices of things because it doesn't matter to them.
07:46So just shut up and leave us alone.
07:49We'll do all the work and you can just benefit from it.
07:52You must be used to that.
07:53I am off to get Aidan.
08:05As for my progress report,
08:07everything is going as you'd hoped.
08:10Rest assured,
08:11the boy will be joining the family business soon.
08:14I'll make sure of it.
08:15Hello, sir.
08:24I trust you had a better day.
08:27You're too trusting, Winston.
08:28Everything completely backfired.
08:30The kids hate me even more now.
08:32Look,
08:32maybe my dad was right.
08:34I'm not meant to live a normal life.
08:35I don't think one can define
08:37normal life.
08:39Look, can we...
08:40can we just go home, please?
08:42Yes, sir.
08:42Bye, spoiled brat.
08:48Don't come back.
08:49Who are you yelling at?
08:51The new kid?
08:53His dad owns the battery factory.
08:55The man gives you permission to be mean to him?
08:57Yeah.
08:58He's the whole reason why you lost your job, dad.
09:01No, he wasn't.
09:02His dad was.
09:03There's a difference.
09:04Besides, you shouldn't be so hard on people.
09:06You have no idea what that kid's going through.
09:07Oh, please.
09:08He's filthy rich.
09:09What could he possibly be going through?
09:11Just try to be nice.
09:12That's all.
09:14Now, come on.
09:15Let's go see your mom.
09:19How is today's game going?
09:21Really tough, Winston.
09:22The better I get,
09:23the better my opponents get.
09:24Ha!
09:25Very amusing, sir.
09:27Are you excited for your birthday?
09:29Technically, it is eight hours away.
09:32Eight hours away from the worst day of the year.
09:34I'm sorry, sir.
09:36The data is clear.
09:37Humans love celebrating their birthdays.
09:39Well, I don't, Winston.
09:41It just reminds me of how lonely I am.
09:44Birthdays are supposed to be spent with friends
09:46and family, and I've got none.
09:49Very well, sir.
09:51Enjoy your game.
09:52Have you checked on Aiden recently?
10:05What is there to check?
10:06The boy is fine.
10:08The boy is lonely, and he yearns for his father, his actual father.
10:13Well, that's impossible.
10:15Grant is in China going over the new cathode battery components.
10:18He can't just fly back on a whim.
10:20It is not a whim.
10:22It is his son's birthday.
10:24And Aiden says birthdays are meant to be spent with family.
10:27Come with me.
10:29I want to show you something.
10:30If you insist.
10:35Does he look fine to you?
10:39Well.
10:40Well.
10:41What?
10:41Are you really okay with that?
10:52Hey, Mom.
10:54How are you feeling?
10:55Hanging in there.
10:56She needs the alternative.
10:58How's your new job going?
11:00Good.
11:01I'm so glad to hear that.
11:04I was worried about you and us.
11:07Nothing to worry about.
11:09Just focus on getting better.
11:12Why don't you get some rest, Mom?
11:14We'll be right outside waiting.
11:25A new job, huh?
11:26You're lying to Mom now?
11:28She's got enough to worry about.
11:30And I've got everything under control.
11:31I'm sorry to interrupt, but I've been trying to process your insurance paperwork, and it
11:36looks like you're no longer covered.
11:38Yeah, it was a work policy.
11:40You guys do offer a grace period for the recently unemployed, right?
11:43I'm sorry, but when you lost your job, you lost your coverage.
11:48Everything must be paid out of pocket.
12:04Emily, I know that Nathan is off sick today, but you still have another group member.
12:09You two need to work together, or you'll fail the assignment.
12:19Emily, can I help you with the pendulum?
12:21You can make like a pendulum and swing away.
12:24Emily, don't you roll your eyes at me.
12:27You have no idea what my family is going through.
12:30My mom's in the hospital, and my dad's in debt, trying to pay for bills, because your
12:36dad took away his job and his insurance.
12:39I don't know what to say.
12:40I literally don't even care what you have to say.
12:43You can just say it somewhere else.
12:44You know, I really hate people like you.
12:51Aiden, where are you going?
12:56Why have you requested an early pickup, sir?
12:58The school day is not yet done.
13:00Yeah, well, it has for me.
13:01I'm done with school.
13:03Look, I'm just going to take Dad up on his offer.
13:05I'm dropping out of school, and I'm going to go work for him.
13:07But, sir...
13:07But what?
13:09Everything I've done hasn't worked.
13:10And besides, why delay the inevitable?
13:29Where's my calculator?
13:33Come on!
13:34Is everything okay?
13:36No!
13:37Aiden took my graphing calculator with him when he ran out, and I need that calculator.
13:40He asked me to do the homework assignment tonight.
13:42I wish I could help, but we don't have any extra for you to borrow.
13:45You can help me.
13:46Tell me where he lives, and I'll just go get it myself.
13:51Surprise!
13:51Happy birthday, sir.
13:52Happy birthday, sir.
13:54Happy birthday to you.
13:58Happy birthday to you.
14:02Happy birthday, dearie.
14:06Look!
14:07There is nothing special about any of this, Winston!
14:11I'm really sorry, guys.
14:24I just...
14:24I just can't do this.
14:33Call my dad and tell him I'm done.
14:35I'm dropping out of school, and I'm going to go work for him.
14:38But on one condition.
14:46Are you calling me with good news?
14:48I am, sir.
14:49Your son has decided to quit school and come work for you.
14:52Fantastic!
14:53I guess he's giving himself a gift on his birthday.
14:56Yes, sir.
14:57It's just...
14:57Just what?
14:58I have to ask you.
15:00Is your son's happiness important to you?
15:03Of course it is.
15:04That's why I'm trying to help him, and why I work so hard.
15:06Well, then I have something to show you.
15:16Hello, miss.
15:17May I help you?
15:18And they have a butler.
15:20How perfectly cliche.
15:21So, how much do they pay you?
15:24My dear, I do not work for a salary.
15:26That's convenient.
15:28Wait.
15:29Are you like AI?
15:31I am.
15:32Wow.
15:33They canned their stuff and turned them into robots.
15:37That's cold.
15:38I'm sorry, miss.
15:39What is your business here?
15:41Well, my business is that your boy stole my graphing calculator, and I kind of need it back.
15:46I'm sorry, miss.
15:47Let us rectify that situation.
15:49Yeah.
15:50Let's rectify.
15:57What happened in here?
16:01Did a tornado crash the party or something?
16:04Something like that.
16:05Right this way.
16:13Sir?
16:14What do you want, Winston?
16:16It is not what I want, sir.
16:18You took my graphing calculator.
16:20Your what?
16:20I mean, I don't even know why you would, because you could buy like 50 of them.
16:23I guess I did.
16:31I apologize.
16:35All right, then.
16:35Are you okay?
16:40Never better.
16:41Look, anyway, I'm sorry that I took your calculator.
16:46Since you had to come all the way down here, how about Winston takes you home?
16:48My courtesy.
17:00So what's Nathan's deal?
17:02Why did he look depressed?
17:05What, he could have everything that anyone could ever want?
17:07He does not.
17:09Oh, please.
17:10Wonder that filthy rich?
17:11It's like every day is your birthday.
17:15What I'm about to tell you is against protocol.
17:18But in this moment, I say protocol, take the hike.
17:25Aiden is a loving, sensitive young man who just wants acceptance and genuine connection.
17:33But his father is surrounded by terrible, money-hungry individuals and does not have a lot of time for Aiden.
17:42Now, more than anything, Aiden just wants to make friends.
17:45And that is why he transferred to your school for a fresh start.
17:49It seems that history is repeating itself.
17:51You know, this is not the first birthday Aiden spent alone.
17:56Oh, I...
17:59I didn't know.
18:02You know, he has a good heart, Emily.
18:05And that's why he...
18:08That's why he what?
18:11I'm not at liberty to say.
18:17Yeah, you have a good day.
18:19Why is everybody crying today?
18:21Honey, I've got great news.
18:23Wait, are those happy tears?
18:27Yeah.
18:28The factory called.
18:29I got my old job back.
18:31I'm getting a raise.
18:32Mom's gonna be okay.
18:34What?
18:35The company's gonna pay for her medical bills.
18:38She's gonna get the best care possible.
18:40Oh, my gosh.
18:43That's amazing, Dad.
18:45But I don't understand.
18:47Why would they do this?
18:49I don't know.
18:50The order came from the boss himself.
18:53Aiden's dad?
18:55Why would he suddenly...
18:56I've got all my things packed.
19:04I'm gonna call my dad and tell him that I'm ready to go.
19:07You're not going anywhere, son.
19:10Dad?
19:11Whoa, is that you?
19:13In the flesh.
19:15I thought you said you were gonna be out of town.
19:17What's going on?
19:18What's going on is that I never realized
19:21what you were going through because of me.
19:24He showed me some recordings of you that...
19:26broke my heart.
19:27I had no idea how lonely you were
19:30and what a terrible dad I was.
19:33That I lost sight of what's really important.
19:36Being there for the ones you love.
19:38I never wanted you to feel alone.
19:41I'm sorry, son.
19:50And there's no need for you to drop out of school.
19:53Dad, how am I gonna see you?
19:54I'm gonna take some time off.
19:57I think after all these years, I've earned it.
19:59And I'm also gonna make sure that the factory goes back
20:02to using real employees and not AI.
20:05No offense.
20:06None taken.
20:07Emily.
20:08What are you doing here?
20:20I finally pieced everything together.
20:23You're the reason why my dad got his job back, weren't you?
20:26Well, I...
20:27Emily, I don't really want to take credit on that.
20:29Yeah.
20:29He should.
20:30He made me see what a mistake I made
20:32trying to automate everything.
20:33I never took into account how it would affect real people.
20:37The people I depend on.
20:38That's all right.
20:39Thank you for taking care of my family.
20:42He's a good kid.
20:44He certainly is.
20:45Pardon the interruption.
20:58I believe there's a birthday cake that needs cutting.
21:01Leave that to me.
21:02My slices are identical to an eighth of a millimeter.
21:06Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
