05:46Security! Catch him!
06:02The fuck is this?
06:04You underestimating me
06:06I'm sorry, who are you?
06:08The guy who sits there you're slowly killing!
06:10He's only nine years old!
06:12She has her whole life ahead of her!
06:16You want a bottle cry baby?
06:18You think I give a fuck about some snotty kid's wasted potential?
06:22He was denied, so what?
06:24That's business!
06:26It's not my fault you're too broke to save your sister's life!
06:28You heartless son of a dick!
06:30When the world finds out what you've done to children!

07:45No. No, Amelia!
07:47No! Amelia!
07:51Doctors! Doctors!
07:53Amelia!
08:01I hate how quiet it is without you.
08:04You were just a kid.
08:06You had a whole life unlived.
08:09A future.
08:11But they took it from you.
08:13They denied you.
08:15Almost enough to pay for the treatment that would have saved your life.
08:22A sick joke.
08:24How naive to trust the system.
08:25To believe that a rich health insurance CEO would actually care about people.
08:33It's unjust.
08:34I'm done being a pawn.
08:35You think you're untouchable.
08:36I'm done being a pawn.
08:37You think you're untouchable.
08:38You hide behind your billions while the rest of your life.
08:39You think you're untouchable.
08:40You hide behind your billions while the rest of your life.
08:41You think you're untouchable.
08:42You hide behind your billions while the rest of us fight for scraps.
08:43You think you're untouchable.
08:47You think you're untouchable.
08:48You hide behind your billions while the rest of us fight for scraps.
08:54But all that's gonna change.
08:55Because you're not a god.
08:56When my bullet hits you, you'll bleed.
08:57You think you're untouchable.

09:19When my bullet hits you, you'll bleed.
09:23You'll bleed.
09:53She'll never get to see this amazing place.
09:55You took everything away from her and she's not the only one.
09:58You'll pay for it all.
10:00You have a reservation?
10:01Mario Lanchotti.
10:02Why so serious?
10:03Batman.
10:04Why so serious?
10:05Batman.
10:06If only she knew.
10:11So, Mario.
10:12Are you here for business or?
10:13You're not the only one.
10:14You're not the only one.
10:15You'll pay for it all.
10:18You have a reservation?
10:20Mario Lanchotti.
10:21Mario Lanchotti.
10:22Why so serious?
10:23Batman.
10:24If only she knew.
10:28So, Mario.
10:29Are you here for business or?
10:30Not sure.
10:31Off to work.
10:35Off to school.
10:36Just an ordinary day.
10:37We should be celebrating.
10:51But you're gone.
10:52And now everything is about to change.
10:56day. We should be celebrating. But you're gone. And now everything is about to change.
11:26Remember me, Mr. Thornwald? Get out of my way, scum. You'll never deny anyone else ever again.
11:56Now run!
12:02Now run!
12:05I thought I'd regret it.
12:11But this feels like justice.
12:17Now time for phase two.
12:18Now run!
12:23Now run!
12:24Now run!
12:25Now run!
12:26Now run!
12:27Now run!
12:28But this feels like justice.
12:40Now time for phase two.
12:51Chief, it's over here.
12:53Let's go.
12:54Who would murder the CEO of DB Health?
13:00What happened here, Chief?
13:04Randall Thornwald was murdered in cold blood.
13:07Hey, Chief, check this out.
13:10And there's two more.
13:12Defend and oppose?
13:14You don't think it's some whack job vigilante?
13:17Yes.
13:20Mere moments ago, a man now identified as 54-year-old Randall Thornall, CEO of DB Health, has been shot dead using bullets labeled deny, defend and depose.
13:31Police are speculating that the assailant might be a vigilante.
13:37Whoever did this, enjoy your freedom.
13:41Because we will hunt you down.
13:43And when I catch you, you'll never see the light of day again.
13:47I need to walk free long enough to make sure my message is heard loud and clear.
13:51The shooter who won a life, Finn and her Randall Thornwald.
13:54I did this so others won't die like my sister did.
14:04But what would she think of me now?
14:16I have to go back.
14:23Yes, Mr. Mayor, I know Randall Thornwald was a close personal friend.
14:27He was a goddamn visionary.
14:29And we're doing everything we can to catch him.
14:31Find the psychopath and murder them, who you'll never work again.
14:34Sir, we'll squash this cocky fucker fast and then you can...
14:38I'll call you back, Mr. Mayor.
14:42CCTV caught the perp biking in the Central Park.
14:46Hit it.
14:52I shouldn't have come back, but I can't let this go.
14:56Over there.
14:57They're faster than I thought.
15:02Search the area. I have an email.
15:06Where could it...
15:10Where could it...
15:16Could this be a clue?
15:17Lieutenant.
15:19I knew there would be sacrifices.
15:29I have to get out of here.
15:32This will keep him busy.
15:35Let's see how long it takes for them to fix that.
15:37would be sacrifices. I have to get out of here. This will keep him busy. Let's see how long
15:46it takes for them to fix that. Y'all already know my struggle. So when I heard Danai defend
15:53a-
15:54On the bullets? Like, unaliving is wrong, but I am on the edge.
15:58DB health is corrupt, and karma's a bitch hunty. So I'm rooting for Mateo.
16:07Excuse me, officer. I just found this. Yeah, I was over there. You contaminated evidence,
16:17you idiot. Not bad. Hey, chief. We found the backpack. Get the fuck out of here. Give me
16:35that. There's a note. How much paper for a life? And you keep raising the price. Who gave
16:58them the right to choose. Time to adjust and pay their dues. Take this to forensics. Got
17:07it.
17:08The plot is thickening, and I think our vigilante has just earned his nickname, The Adjuster.
17:14Let me know what you think in the comments below.
17:24I won't be made a fool of.
17:37Have you seen this man? Tell us what you know, dickwad. Look, I don't see nothing. My insurance
17:47wouldn't cover new glasses, so we throw out these glasses. Everything's a big blur. Then get out of my face.
17:52This adjuster will pay with his life.
17:59People are rooting for this guy. Just shows how sick our society is. Okay, but The Adjuster can get it done.
18:06He's too hard to connect. Some loser who wanted to be famous. All of this is pointless if they don't understand why I did it.
18:13Then get out of my face. This adjuster will pay with his life.
18:22All right. This adjuster will pay with his life.
18:26All of this is pointless if they don't understand why I did it, but they will soon.
18:39Claims to seem humane! Denying claims to seem humane! Denying claims to seem humane!
18:45Who gives up the right to choose a justice now or pay or due?
18:52Who gives up the right to choose a justice now or pay or due?
18:56This is what I wanted. The people rising up, shouting back at the system that tried to silence them.
19:02Who gave them the right to choose a justice now or pay?
19:05Denying claims to seem humane! Denying claims to seem humane! Denying claims to seem humane!
19:10You should be ashamed of yourself. Harassing people at your age?
19:14I'm proud to fight for what's right, for what we all deserve.
19:17You're defending a murderer!
19:22Who are what? Look at you, shaking like a leaf! You're nothing but a weak old-
19:26Don't lay a hand on her!
19:28How dare you touch me?
19:30Who's touching my wife?
19:32You better apologize, punk.
19:35Your wife's the one who should apologize. She stole something that doesn't belong to her.
19:39You loudmouth maggots are stealing our precious time. Leave!
19:45Before I make you, go ahead and try.
19:54You shouldn't have done that one.
19:55Oh yeah? How about this?
19:58Do you realize you just assaulted the CEO of Purple Cross?
20:06I was defending myself. What you did, what you did to my friend Patty here, that was assaulting.
20:12Who's gonna believe some decrepit old woman and her rat-faced sidekick over a CEO and his wife?
20:18Everyone here, they all saw what happened.
20:20You mean these lazy invalids, who'd rather shout themselves hoarse, demanding money from us, than work an honest job?
20:29I worked night shift for 35 years in a warehouse, until the insurance company denied my back surgery.
20:36I was trained to become a pilot, until Purple Cross denied my insulin prescription.
20:41Now I'm blind in one eye, and have to give up on everything I worked for.
20:45All they want is a chance to live.
20:48You're done taking that away?
20:50I'm done.
20:52News flash!
20:53The one who has the gold makes the rules, asshole.
20:55Aw, did no one tell you?
20:58This protest is pointless.
21:01You'll all stay poor and sick, begging for money you're never gonna get.
21:06Like diseased hamsters stuck in a broken wheel.
21:09It's how the world works. You can't do it without money.
21:12It's always about money.
21:14You're right?
21:16When money talks, people listen.
21:23Here's Emili's insurance money.
21:25They need it more than I do.
21:27For your medication.
21:30There's enough here for everyone, okay?
21:32Hey!
21:34There's over 200k in here.
21:36Either you stole this, or you're a drug dealer.
21:40Let's go out for a real nice dinner tonight, honey.
21:43Ooh!
21:44Stealing from the sick once again.
21:46That's what you greedy CEOs do best, isn't it?
21:48Stealing!
21:49I'll bet half these leeching phlegm buckets owe me money.
21:56Pricks like you don't scatter me anymore.
21:58Yeah?
21:59How about the cops?
22:01They'll get me eventually.
22:03But not today.
22:04What makes you think you're so invincible?
22:07You're a scrawny little nobody.
22:09I'm the CEO of a billion dollar healthcare company.
22:13You have no idea who I am.
22:16And you don't want to find out who gave you the right to choose.
22:22Adjust things now or pay your due!
22:24Who gave you the right to choose?
22:28Who gave you the right to choose?
22:30Adjust things now or pay your due!
22:36I'm shutting this down!
22:38We're not going anywhere.
22:42Who gave you the right to choose?
22:44Adjust things now or pay your due!
22:46Who can do the right to choose, adjusting justice?
22:48Cops aren't going to be enough.
22:50We need the mayor.
22:52Mayor Camden, there are violent protesters
22:55in front of DB Health intimidating pedestrians.
22:58Protesters, huh?
23:00Those chanting morons are a virus infecting
23:02the minds of our youth.
23:05I'll send more officers over.
23:08Mr. Mayor, their leader is the adjuster.
23:12I'll be there and fine.
23:14It's for you, it's for you.
23:20Yeah, one more for you.
23:22Please.
23:26It's a miracle, but how?
23:29It's my sister's life insurance money.
23:32She'd want me to help people out
23:33while they still have a fighting chance.
23:36Consider an adjustment.
23:39There he is, the adjuster.
23:41That's the mayor.
23:44Now you'll be sorry.
23:45Mayor Camden, he's here.
23:47This pathetic guy is the adjuster?
23:51The calculated terrorist who murdered my dear friend Randy.
23:55I can't let them take me in yet.
23:57My work isn't done.
24:03No.
24:04I am the adjuster.
24:06No.
24:07I'm the adjuster.
24:09It's me.
24:10I'm the adjuster.
24:11No, it's me.
24:13I'm the adjuster.
24:15Go.
24:16Now.
24:17Get him.
24:18Let's go.
24:19He's getting away.
24:20Get him.
24:21He's getting away.
24:22He's over there.
24:23Don't let him go.
24:24Don't let him go.
24:25Don't let him go.
24:26Don't let him go.
24:27There.
24:28There.
24:29Get him.
24:30Get him.
24:31Get him.
24:32Get him, get him.
24:33Not so clever after all.
24:37Get him, get him, get him, get him, get him, get him, get him, not so clever after all.
24:58Hey, man.
25:05Hey, you cool?
25:07Can you use the jacket?
25:11I got you.
25:13God bless you.
25:20Take care of it, man.
25:22Stay safe.
25:2426-year-old Matteo Leone has been identified as the CEO shooter.
25:29A $10,000 reward is being offered for any info that comes into our office.
25:34My name is out there now, but I won't hide for much longer.
25:37I wish someone didn't have to die to make them listen.
26:04I wish I could hear my sister's laugh just one more time, but life isn't fair.
26:11Do you need some help?
26:17Do you mind?
26:18I don't mind.
26:19I have to put her on these walks so she can sleep, and then when she's asleep, I can never lift this up.
26:25Have a good night.
26:28Bye.
26:28The health care system has failed the people, and it needs to be taken down.
26:34The health care system has failed the people, and it needs to be taken down.

30:43I'm not
30:44I'm not
30:45I'm not
30:46I'm not
30:47I'm not
30:48I'm not
30:53After you, gentlemen
30:54Hang in there, Mateo! We're all on your side! We're fighting you!
31:13You're going down!
31:18Great use of resources, guys.
31:20So talking.
31:21The system is designed to annihilate scum like you.
31:26Burn in hell, you filthy criminal.
31:29You'll fry in that chair.
31:31You scared of me, Mr. CEO?
31:33Scared.
31:33Where's your money now?
31:35You're empty threats.
31:36You think you're some sort of superhero?
31:38You're shit on the bottom of a shoe.
31:40A fly about to be swatted.
31:42Easy for you to say.
31:43Surrounded by cops in your bulletproof vests.
31:46Cowards.
31:46All of you, I could rip you apart.
31:55You're nothing but a filthy criminal.
31:59Powerless.
32:00Stupid.
32:02Pathetic.
32:03You're no one.
32:04Back off.
32:05Let the court decide.
32:07Innocent is unproven guilty.
32:09Innocent is unproven guilty.
32:11Innocent is unproven guilty.
32:13Innocent is unproven guilty.
32:14It's completely unjust.
32:16It's an insult to the intelligence of the American people.
32:18And their lived experience.
32:20They can yell all they want, but they can't keep you from rotting in jail.
32:24Come on.
32:26Hear me.
32:28See you in court.
32:29Innocent is unproven guilty.
32:30Innocent is unproven guilty.
32:32Innocent is unproven guilty.
32:34Innocent is unproven guilty.
32:34Innocent is unproven guilty.
32:38No one can protect you in here.
32:43Let's see how long you last.
32:49Maybe I deserve everything that's coming to me.
32:51What you're in here for, princess?
32:57What's your name, boy?
32:59Better start answering me, son, before I fuck you up, boy.
33:03I'm gonna fuck you up so bad they ain't gonna be able to recognize you when I'm fucking through.
33:07Now what's your fucking name, boy?
33:09Take a seat, bro.
33:39The denial letter came a week after we buried her.
33:52I'm so sorry that happened.
33:54And what you did made a lot of guys in here feel a lot better.
33:59Just feel less hopeless.
34:05There's no going back.
34:07I'll fight to the death.
34:09Janet here, but the man of the hour hasn't shown yet.
34:14If you didn't know, today is the first day of the trial of the century.
34:18The United States versus Matteo Leone, also known as the adjuster.
34:24You saw the wanted posters.
34:26Corrupt CEO's time is running out.
34:29You crusty plebeians could never get past security.
34:32Oh, yeah? You sure about that?
34:34It's called survival of the fittest.
34:36The vibes are giving pressure cooker.
34:41Get her! Get her!
34:45Get her! Get her!
34:47The people are waking up.
35:04Enjoy it while it lasts.
35:07Our case is airtight.
35:09After this, nothing but prison and death for a sadistic monster like you.
35:14You see about that?
35:17Talk to my client again, and I'll have to be disbarred.
35:20I'll see you in court.
35:21All right, honey.
35:22I'll see you in court.
35:23All right, honey.
35:23I'll see you!
35:25I'll see you!
35:29I'll see you!
35:30Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, Matteo Leone viciously targeted Randall Thornwald.
35:53Rather than grieve with dignity when his sister died of cancer,
35:56he cruelly premeditated the murder of a loving family man,
36:01a successful visionary CEO worth billions,
36:05who purposely profited off of people's pain.
36:10These witnesses will paint a picture of just how dangerous Matteo Leone is.
36:21He could have saved his sister, but he was too broke to pay.
36:26He had motive.
36:27He was aggressive from the start.
36:29He's a bully.
36:31He pushed me and threatened my husband.
36:34He wanted them to suffer.
36:36That's not true.
36:37He thought he was so smart with all his messages.
36:41Mr. Leone is entitled, manipulative, and frankly, psychotic.
36:49Thank you, Mayor Camden.
36:50For my final witness, I call Brady Thornwald, Randall Thornwald's son.
37:10Brady, how has the death of your father, your hero, affected you?
37:18Will this kid be the nail in my coffin?
37:23My father's not my hero.
37:29You mean?
37:32I mean, I was incredibly devastated
37:35when that cold-blooded killer took my father's life away from me.
37:46You know what?
37:47Fuck that.
37:48My dad enjoyed hurting people.
37:50His entire vision as CEO was built on keeping people sick.
37:55And I'm not just going to sit here and lie because some company paid me to.
37:58You disrespect your own father.
38:01After everything he did for you?
38:03You know what?
38:03Lock me up.
38:04I don't care.
38:05Objection.
38:06He can't shut you.
38:07I mean, sit down.
38:07You're nothing lower than suing sludge.
38:09Mr. Mayor, first, you treat him like some kind of sue event.
38:14Order.
38:15Mayor Camden, one more word, and you'll be held in contempt.
38:24Yeah, yeah.
38:25No further questions.
38:28Based on the evidence provided,
38:32Matteo Leone undoubtedly is guilty of murder in the first degree.
38:37Prosecution rests.
38:39Ms. Weinhart?
38:41Judge will shine.
38:46People to jury.
38:48As the prosecution detailed,
38:50my client, Matteo Leone,
38:52shot and killed the CEO of DB Health.
38:57Randall Thornwall, dead.
39:04Someone had to do it.
39:07That's right.
39:07My client does not deny killing Mr. Thornwall.
39:11What he does deny,
39:12it was unwarranted.
39:15Mr. Leone had to act drastically
39:17to save lives.
39:19And today, we're here to defend his right
39:21so he can defend himself and others
39:24from becoming victims of a murderous corporation.
39:27Let's go!
39:28Let's go!
39:29Let's go!
39:29Let's go!
39:30Let's go!
39:30Let's go!
39:31Let's go!
39:31Let's go!
39:32Let's go!
39:32Let's go!
39:33Let's go!
39:34Let's go!
39:35Order!
39:36I call Patty Sinclair to the stand.
39:39Please tell us what happened to your husband.
39:41Clay and I, we just found out that we were going to be grandparents.
39:46Then one night, Clay had a heart attack.
39:50A doctor prescribed a treatment plan, but D.B. Health said no, not medically necessary.
39:57It would cost hundreds of thousands out of pocket, so we appealed, but all of our claims
40:04remained.
40:05I was denied a walking boot from my fractured ankle.
40:08It got so bad they had to amputate, but they couldn't because they don't make prosthetics.
40:18I got addicted to pain medication, but denied the surgery to cure my pain for good.
40:29We went bankrupt, and now we're homeless.
40:31He couldn't afford it.
40:32So he died.
40:33Appealed.
40:34But now she's paralyzed.
40:35If D.B. Health had approved my husband's surgery, he would still be alive.
40:51This young man, Mateo, saw how so many of us were being taken advantage of by D.B. Health's
41:03predatory business.
41:06And he did what no one else had the courage or actually the balls to do.
41:13He stood up.
41:19I couldn't have said it any better.
41:24Your Honor, I call Mr. Mateo Leoti to stand.
41:39This isn't a circus!
41:41Order in the court!
41:44Do you swear to tell the truth and nothing but the truth?
41:54If you swear to listen, I swear to tell the truth.
42:04Mr. Leoti, what drove you to kill the CEO of D.B. Health?
42:16Your Honor, it'll be better if I show you.
42:18Objection!
42:19This is new evidence not found today!
42:22Sit down, counselor.
42:24Go ahead.
42:28Thanks for being here.
42:34While I still have a voice, I want to tell you why.
42:38This is Amelia, my nine-year-old sister.
42:44She was just a baby when our parents died.
42:48And it's been the two of us against the world ever since.
42:51The doctor said she could beat leukemia if she started treatment right away.
42:55But D.B. Health wouldn't cover it.
42:59Even with a decent job, I couldn't afford to pay out of pocket.
43:03So I appealed.
43:04I was optimistic.
43:05I didn't know that there are almost 200,000 health insurance-related deaths per year.
43:12As we waited for a response, I watched my amazing little sister get sicker.
43:19And then D.B. Health denied her appeal.
43:23I did everything I could to fight back.
43:27I even pleaded with the CEO himself to save her life.
43:31He told me it was nothing personal.
43:35It's just the business of keeping people sick.
43:39And then he smiled.
43:45Amelia died.
43:47And I found out our story is very, very common.
43:53I'm talking mass corruption, leading to massive amounts of lives ruined, hundreds of thousands
44:01of lives ruined, all to fill their pockets.
44:05But we're bigger than them, all right, we're bigger than them.
44:10If we stand up together, who's with me?
44:16Yes!
44:17Yes!
44:18Yes!
44:19Yes!
44:20Yes!
44:21Yes!
44:22Yes!
44:23Yes!
44:24Yes!
44:25Yes!
44:26Yes!
44:27Yes!
44:28Yes!
44:29Yes!
44:30Yes!
44:31Yes!
44:32Yes!
44:33Yes!
44:34Yes!
44:35Yes!
44:36Yes!
44:37Yes!
44:38Yes!
44:39Yes!
44:40Yes!
44:41Yes!
44:42Yes!
44:43Yes!
44:44Yes!
44:45Yes!
44:46Yes!
44:47Yes!
44:48Yes!
44:49Yes!
44:50Yes!
44:51No!
44:52Yes!
44:53Yes!
44:54Yes!
44:55You did this.
44:59Dear Tracy, your letter made me tear up.
45:03I am so sorry you and your daughter had to go through such senseless pain.
45:07No one should have to experience that kind of systemic failure.
45:10You are an inspiration and your daughter is lucky to have a mother who didn't back down.
45:15All my best, Matteo Leonet.
45:17Death or life in prison.
45:30At least I said my piece.
