00:01What's wrong with you? You look like you saw a ghost or something.
00:05Can you step into my office for a moment?
00:06I'm busy right now. Can't you just tell me whatever it is here?
00:10This is really something we should discuss in private.
00:13Oh my god, Eric. Just spit it out. What's the big emergency now?
00:17Chloe, I'm really sorry, but I have to let you go.
00:19What do you mean, let me go? Let me go where?
00:23You're fired, Chloe.
00:25What? That can't be true. I've always been a great employee.
00:28Chloe, there has to be some kind of mistake.
00:30Please, lower your voice, okay? Other people are trying to warn you.
00:32I don't care about other people right now. This is insane.
00:35You can't just fire someone without warning.
00:37Actually, Chloe, you've received three written warnings in the past two months.
00:40We've documented everything.
00:41Those weren't real warnings. Those were just you being petty about stupid little things.
00:45Unfortunately, it's not a mistake. The decision is final. I've given this careful consideration.
00:51How long have you been planning this? How long have you been plotting against me this whole time?
00:56This isn't a plot, Chloe. This is about your performance and your behavior toward your colleagues.
01:02My behavior? What's wrong with my behavior? I get along with everyone here.
01:06You really believe that?
01:10Chloe, what do you think you're doing?
01:12This is what I think about your stupid decision.
01:14Stop it right now. You're making a scene.
01:16If you think I'm just going to accept this lying down, you are completely mistaken.
01:20Don't calm down. I'm going to call security.
01:22Oh, call security. That's your solution to everything, right? Can't handle your own problems?
01:28Wait, what's going on here?
01:30Stupid Eric just made another one of his brilliant decisions, firing me for absolutely no reason whatsoever.
01:36Wait, there's always a reason when someone gets fired.
01:39Oh, great. Now you're taking his side too. I should have expected that.
01:43Can you explain what's really happening?
01:46Okay, look, I've been thinking about this for weeks. Chloe's performance hasn't been acceptable for months now. I had to
01:52let her go.
01:53Weeks? You've been plotting this for weeks and didn't have the decency to talk to me about it?
01:59I've tried to talk to you multiple times. You always brush off our conversations or get defensive.
02:03Oh, and so now it's my fault that you're a terrible communicator. And please, explain to me exactly how my
02:10performance hasn't been acceptable.
02:11Well, let's start with how you treat your coworkers. You're passive aggressive, you show up constantly late, you don't complete
02:18assignments on time, and frankly, you're lazy.
02:20Lazy? I work just as hard as everyone else here.
02:23You spent two hours yesterday online shopping. I could see your screen from my office.
02:28I was researching products for a client presentation.
02:32Oh, researching shoes and makeup for a client presentation.
02:35You don't understand the context.
02:37See, that's exactly what I'm talking about right there. You don't show respect to anyone.
02:41She's doing it right now. Even in the middle of being fired, she can't take anything seriously.
02:45I take things seriously that deserve to be taken seriously.
02:49This is pretty serious, Chloe.
02:51You know what, Eric? Go to hell!
02:54Vanessa, don't you have anything to say in my defense?
02:57Defend you? What do you mean?
02:59Come on. I've never done anything bad to you, have I?
03:02Are you kidding me? That's not true at all. You're constantly bullying me because I'm in a wheelchair.
03:09You mock me, you make my life way more difficult than it already is.
03:13Bullying you? I've never bullied anyone in my life!
03:16You constantly make jokes about my wheelchair. You block my path on purpose. You talk to me like I'm a
03:21child.
03:22Those aren't jokes, they're just observations.
03:26Observations? You asked me last week if I ever get tired of being lazy all the time.
03:31She said that to you?
03:32Among other things.
03:34Wow! Vanessa, you can't take a joke. I really thought we were friends.
03:38Friends don't treat each other the way you treat me.
03:40I try to be friendly with everyone here.
03:43Your idea of friendship is very different from mine.
03:46Do you remember when you told me you'd push me down the stairs if you had the chance?
03:51Is that a friend thing? I don't think so.
03:55Chloe, please tell me that's not true.
03:57Oh. My. God. I was obviously joking.
04:01That's not a joke, Chloe. That's a threat of violence against a disabled person.
04:04It wasn't a threat. It was dark humor.
04:07There's nothing humorous about threatening to hurt someone.
04:10Do you understand how inappropriate that is? How it could be considered workplace harassment?
04:16Everyone makes inappropriate jokes sometimes.
04:18Not jokes about pushing disabled coworkers downstairs.
04:22I didn't feel like it was a joke.
04:24And do you know what? I'm actually glad you're leaving.
04:29Whatever. You're both ganging up on me.
04:31And I'm going to lawyer up because I'm sure you just can't do this to me.
04:36Yeah, good luck with that. You'll never win. HR is more than aware of everything you've done.
04:40We have a solid case.
04:41You know what? You're both terrible, terrible people with awful taste.
04:46I'm actually happy to get away from you losers.
04:49When can I pick up my last paycheck?
04:51You can come back in two weeks when everything's finalized.
04:53Fine. Now, can I please have a moment to gather my things?
04:57Or are you going to kick me out right this second?
05:00No, that's fine. Take your time. Just let us know when you're ready to leave.
05:03Both of you. Leave me alone.
05:12Stupid Eric. What an idiot. Worthless manager.
05:17And Vanessa always whining about her wheelchair.
05:21She's been a liability to this company since day one.
05:25You know what? I think I'm taking these two. That's what they deserve.
05:34What? Did I buy her passcode? Something stupid like zero, zero, zero.
05:43Idiot. Let's see if I can mess up some of her emails.
05:52What the hell?
05:57Oh my god! Unbelievable!
06:01Chloe, what have you done now?
06:02What is all this mess?
06:04I was looking at the computer and I saw all these emails Vanessa sent to HR complaining about me.
06:10Explain yourself! Right now!
06:11Of course I made complaints. How could I not? You've been harassing me constantly.
06:16I've never felt more uncomfortable around you.
06:19It wasn't personal. I treat everyone like that. Including Eric.
06:24Even though I'm the manager, I've always felt threatened by you too.
06:27You can't act the way you do and expect people to just take it.
06:30I kept hoping you'd learn, but you never did.
06:32Did you complain to HR about me too?
06:35Multiple times. I've had enough of your behavior.
06:37Whatever. You're both terrible people.
06:40You're nothing but a backstabber and you deserve to be stuck in that wheelchair.
06:45You can't say things like that. You've gone way too far.
06:48You have no idea what it's like to be in this situation.
06:51I was in a serious accident. I'm grateful just to be alive.
06:54I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy.
06:56Don't cry me a river. You're so dramatic.
06:59Chloe, you're probably just upset because you're losing your job, okay?
07:02You don't really mean these things.
07:04Actually, I mean every word of it.
07:06You should have more empathy.
07:08Empathy? I'll show you empathy.
07:10That's enough. You need to leave right now.
07:13Don't yell at me.
07:14You need to go or I'm calling security.
07:16Fine. You win.
07:18But I'll be back in two weeks for my paycheck.
07:20And then I never have to see your ugly faces again.
07:23I'll be back inside.
07:29Are you okay?
07:30I will. Thank you for helping.
07:33Of course.
07:41Today is the day Chloe comes to get her paycheck.
07:45Let's brace ourselves.
07:46Yeah.
07:57I'm here for my paycheck.
08:01Chloe, what happened?
08:02Are you okay?
08:03I had an accident at home.
08:05I fell down some stairs and hurt my spine pretty badly.
08:09Doctors say I can't walk anymore.
08:12I wanted to send someone else to pick up my check.
08:15But I realized I don't really have any friends left.
08:21You must be pretty happy to see me like this, Carmen all right?
08:24I would never be happy about something like this.
08:28But I do hope you can learn something from this experience.
08:31Whatever.
08:33Here's your final paycheck.
08:41That's it?
08:42This can't be the right amount.
08:44That's exactly right.
08:45It's payment for the work you actually completed.
08:46Which honestly wasn't very much.
08:48You're both still worthless idiots.
08:51This place is a joke.
08:57She'll probably never learn, will she?
09:01Some people never do.
