00:00:00🎵
00:00:19The hacker's trying to bust through the server firewall.
00:00:21I can handle this.
00:00:24Like hell, this guy works in network operations, you know, fixing computers.
00:00:27How the hell is he gonna stop a large-scale hack?
00:00:31This is William Dorsey, our boss's son.
00:00:34You know what they say about new management?
00:00:36There's gonna be some layoffs.
00:00:38Eric Martin.
00:00:39You are so fucking fired.
00:00:41Sir, Eric was the one who stopped the cyber attack.
00:00:43You wanna follow him out?
00:00:44What are you doing kissing this douchebag?
00:00:46Why would I waste my time with an unemployed loser like you?
00:00:50I will formally be severing my ties with Dorsey Tech.
00:00:53There's another employee with a similar name who's always slacking on the job.
00:00:56With Eric's codes, I can plug the loophole.
00:00:58Everyone will think I'm a hero.
00:01:00You're Eric Martin!
00:01:01I am.
00:01:02We have to get him on our side.
00:01:04If you join Hendrix Tech, you can have anything you want.
00:01:09Including me.
00:01:10Our AI platform and company server have both crashed.
00:01:12What the fuck?
00:01:15I know. I'm on my way right now.
00:01:17Okay, I'll try that.
00:01:19Shit, the hacker's trying to bust through the server firewall. This is bad.
00:01:22Do something. The server is the company's lifeline.
00:01:24If they break through the firewall, we're finished.
00:01:26Guys, our IP is locked.
00:01:28Just shut me out.
00:01:29Hold on, just let me...
00:01:31Oh, God. Okay, just let me...
00:01:33I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
00:01:35I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
00:01:37I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
00:01:39I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
00:01:41I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
00:01:43Okay, just relax. There's got to be a way.
00:01:50I can handle this.
00:01:52You?
00:01:54Like hell. This guy works in network operations.
00:01:56You know, fixing computers, watching surveillance footage.
00:01:58How the hell is he going to stop a large-scale hack?
00:02:00Do you know what to do?
00:02:02We're running out of time.
00:02:04Desperate times call for desperate measures.
00:02:06Eric, get in here.
00:02:14Oh, my God.
00:02:16He's unlocked the IP.
00:02:18The firewall's safe.
00:02:20And I sent a botnet swarm to launch a DDoS.
00:02:22Scrape all the personal data.
00:02:26Eric, you went up against 300 expert hackers,
00:02:28and you just owned them.
00:02:30Dude, that was sick.
00:02:32I always thought you were just some sort of network maintenance lackey,
00:02:34but it turns out you're a better programmer than I am.
00:02:36How the hell did you get so good?
00:02:38What you did just now was legendary.
00:02:40Wait.
00:02:43I heard our bosses recently hired a Silicon Valley tech star
00:02:45to develop a next-gen AI neural net.
00:02:47Was that you?
00:02:49I...
00:02:51Look, I'll have to tell you later.
00:02:53My botnet just traced these hackers' IP addresses.
00:02:55Looks like we're going to have to shut them down one by one
00:02:57if we want to protect the server,
00:02:59which is going to take some time.
00:03:04You guys can all head out.
00:03:06I'll take it from here.
00:03:08Right. Yeah.
00:03:10You guys can go.
00:03:40God.
00:03:42Finally.
00:03:46God.
00:03:48Finally.
00:03:52Let's light out.
00:03:54Great.
00:03:56Pulled an all-nighter.
00:04:00You did it?
00:04:02You're a pro, man.
00:04:04Yeah.
00:04:06All in a night's work.
00:04:08All in a night's work.
00:04:10All right.
00:04:12I'm going to get some sleep.
00:04:28Johnny.
00:04:30So who's this Herod guy, anyway?
00:04:32I mean, his skills are off the charts.
00:04:34Not sure yet.
00:04:36He's a network maintenance trash.
00:04:38Who knew he could ward off a cyber attack like that?
00:04:40And with his talent, you'd think the boss would put him in a more important role.
00:04:42You know,
00:04:44I don't remember seeing
00:04:46sit-around-and-chat in your job description.
00:04:48Brenda, who the hell is this guy?
00:04:50This is
00:04:52William Dorsey,
00:04:54our boss's son.
00:04:56He just completed his MBA at Stanford.
00:04:58Mr. Dorsey will be standing in
00:05:00as CEO while his father
00:05:02deals with some medical issues.
00:05:04Am I looking at two employees from Dorsey Tech
00:05:06or a couple eight-year-olds out at recess?
00:05:08I honestly can't tell.
00:05:10Sir, I can explain.
00:05:12Zip it, Johnny.
00:05:14You can't manage yourself, let alone your entire team,
00:05:16so get out of my face.
00:05:18You're fired.
00:05:20You're fired.
00:05:22Get out.
00:05:24I just did that.
00:05:26You know what they say about new management.
00:05:28There's going to be some layoffs.
00:05:30Time to separate the wheat from the chaff.
00:05:32Ha ha ha.
00:05:36Okay, listen up.
00:05:38Listen up.
00:05:40I'm going to need 150% every single day.
00:05:42None of this half-ass bullshit anymore.
00:05:44All right?
00:05:48Who does he think he is?
00:05:50Elon Musk?
00:05:52What the hell
00:05:54is this crap?
00:05:56Okay, I need zero distractions in this office.
00:05:58Leave your shit at home
00:06:00and maybe you'll get something done for once.
00:06:04No!
00:06:06That was limited edition.
00:06:08Oh, boo-hoo.
00:06:10It's not my fault you were decorating
00:06:12your desk with that junk instead of working.
00:06:14You're fired!
00:06:16Excuse me?
00:06:18Uh, Fernanda, see how much that thing
00:06:20costs and buy her a new one?
00:06:22Dorsey Tech might lack competent workers,
00:06:24but one thing it doesn't lack is money.
00:06:26Yes, sir.
00:06:31And what do we have here?
00:06:33Sleeping on the job?
00:06:35Good morning, my sweet prince.
00:06:38Who the hell are you?
00:06:40Who am I? Doesn't matter.
00:06:42Uh, you're fired.
00:06:46Me? You're firing me?
00:06:48Yeah.
00:06:50Well, you're firing me.
00:06:52Did I stutter? No.
00:06:54That's not, uh...
00:06:56That's not what I meant.
00:06:58What does he do?
00:07:00Um, he works in network maintenance.
00:07:02What's his salary?
00:07:04Just about 500K a year.
00:07:06Oh, 500K a year!
00:07:08All that for a simple maintenance job?
00:07:10What are you doing, taking us for a ride?
00:07:12No, uh, look, I was...
00:07:14I was working all night.
00:07:16Can't I just take a rest?
00:07:18You trying to clock it a time and a half for overtime?
00:07:20I mean, I've heard of quiet quitting,
00:07:22but this is time theft.
00:07:24Are you HR folks as dumb as these techies
00:07:26or is this some kind of larger-scale scam?
00:07:28Eric and I might be dating,
00:07:30but I can't afford to get dragged into this.
00:07:32I need to break up with this loser.
00:07:34Um, he must have pulled some strings
00:07:36to get a higher salary.
00:07:38Other workers in the same department
00:07:40don't make nearly as much as him.
00:07:42Fernanda.
00:07:46Eric Martin.
00:07:48You are so fucking fired.
00:07:50Get your shit and get out of my building.
00:07:56All right, then.
00:07:58Eric.
00:08:00Sir, Eric was the one who stopped the cyber attack.
00:08:02You want to follow him out?
00:08:04Hey, look.
00:08:06Dorsetech is still one of the top tech companies
00:08:08in Silicon Valley.
00:08:10Don't lose your jobs for me.
00:08:26Okay.
00:08:28Yeah.
00:08:30Boss's orders.
00:08:32I won't hold it against you.
00:08:34Uh, it's also our one-year anniversary.
00:08:36Right?
00:08:38Um, see you in the lobby.
00:08:44What was that about?
00:08:48Mr. Dorsey?
00:08:50Yeah?
00:08:52Are you sure it's a good idea to fire so many employees
00:08:54just because he is acting CEO?
00:08:56It's better to be feared
00:08:58than loved.
00:09:00I mean, what?
00:09:02You want me to show some mercy to your crook boyfriend?
00:09:04Is that it?
00:09:06Uh, no. He's not...
00:09:08You know, you deserve so much better.
00:09:10I mean, what would you prefer?
00:09:12An unemployed loser
00:09:14or a great CEO?
00:09:18Uh...
00:09:24Just a sec.
00:09:26Busy guy.
00:09:28Oh. What's up, Dad?
00:09:30My heart's acting up again.
00:09:32You'll have to take over the company for now.
00:09:34Also,
00:09:36there's an important matter you need to know about.
00:09:38Yeah.
00:09:40What's the important matter?
00:09:42We have an employee. Eric.
00:09:44Whatever you do, make sure to be good to him.
00:09:46Eric?
00:09:50Eric Martin.
00:09:54Isn't that the guy I just laid off?
00:09:56William, you there?
00:09:58Yep.
00:10:00Just a sec.
00:10:02Do we have any of an employee named Eric?
00:10:08This is the employee list.
00:10:10Yep.
00:10:12I was trying to get him to work for us for years and finally poached him.
00:10:14He's in charge of our next-gen
00:10:16AI development.
00:10:18The company's future is in his hands.
00:10:20Ah, yes. Eric Martin.
00:10:22I see him.
00:10:24Eric Martin, AI development.
00:10:26One of the top tech visionaries
00:10:28in Silicon Valley. This the guy?
00:10:30Yeah, that's him.
00:10:32Eric Martin.
00:10:34There's another employee with a similar name who's always slacking on the job.
00:10:36Fire him when you get the chance.
00:10:38Don't worry, Dad. I already did.
00:10:40Ah.
00:10:42Guess that sucker I fired wasn't the big-shot tech genius after all.
00:10:44Attaboy.
00:10:46Keep it up.
00:10:48Once I'm feeling better, I'll come around and see how things are going.
00:10:50Yeah, just focus on getting better, Dad.
00:10:52I got this.
00:10:56You know, I told you that
00:10:58my father wouldn't pay $500,000
00:11:00to some loser.
00:11:02So who's it gonna be?
00:11:04MMA.
00:11:10What the fuck do you want?
00:11:12Uh, Mr. Dorsey, um...
00:11:14Spit it out, man.
00:11:16What's up?
00:11:18You. Talk to me.
00:11:20It's bad, sir.
00:11:22The customer complaints are getting out of control.
00:11:24What should we do, sir?
00:11:26Eric saved us during the last cyber attack.
00:11:28So if we can just get him here, then boom.
00:11:30Problem solved.
00:11:32Fernanda, you got his number, right?
00:11:34Why don't you give him a call?
00:11:40Eric.
00:11:42What a dick.
00:11:44Forgets his tablet.
00:11:46Amelioration algorithm?
00:11:48Wait.
00:11:50Is this the code that
00:11:52fixes the server loophole?
00:11:54Oh, damn.
00:11:56This is good.
00:12:00Hello?
00:12:02Eric, the company's server crashed.
00:12:04Get over here and help us.
00:12:06Mr. Dorsey said that if you fix it, you'll be generously rewarded.
00:12:08On my way.
00:12:10With Eric's codes,
00:12:12I can plug the loophole.
00:12:14Everyone will think I'm a hero.
00:12:20So?
00:12:22He said he's got it.
00:12:24Thank God.
00:12:30You still haven't answered my question.
00:12:32Remember me?
00:12:34Eric and I weren't a thing.
00:12:36I was just leaning him on.
00:12:38I choose you, of course.
00:12:40I choose you, of course.
00:12:42Six more.
00:12:50God, Fernanda was supposed to be off a half hour ago.
00:12:52Where is she?
00:12:54Screw it.
00:12:56I'm going up.
00:13:06You fucking asshole!
00:13:08You fucking asshole!
00:13:12Stop it!
00:13:14You're acting like a child.
00:13:16As if you never saw this coming.
00:13:18What are you doing kissing this douchebag?
00:13:20Watch your mouth!
00:13:22I can do whatever I want
00:13:24with whoever I want.
00:13:26You bastard.
00:13:28Jesus!
00:13:38Eric,
00:13:40you and me
00:13:42are over.
00:13:46Fernanda,
00:13:48are you serious?
00:13:50That pathetic piece of crap
00:13:52had the nerve to mess up your shirt.
00:13:54Why are you doing this?
00:13:56Eric, I told you we're done.
00:13:58Why would I waste my time
00:14:00with an unemployed loser like you?
00:14:08Fuck.
00:14:18Keep it.
00:14:20At least you'll have something to jerk off to.
00:14:22Oh, damn.
00:14:24Yeah, so,
00:14:26I'm rich.
00:14:28I'm handsome.
00:14:30And you, you're an unemployed loser.
00:14:32Let's go home and beat your meat, man.
00:14:35Fernanda, you're the reason
00:14:37I even stayed at Dorset.
00:14:39Shut up!
00:14:41Who knows what kind of lies you told to get the job anyway.
00:14:43We're done.
00:14:49You're gonna pay for this.
00:14:51Hold it.
00:14:53You're in trouble now, bitch.
00:15:05And you are?
00:15:07It's an honor to meet you, Mr. Dorsey.
00:15:09I'm here to report
00:15:11that under my guidance,
00:15:13our systems are back up and running normally.
00:15:15You're Eric Martin!
00:15:17I am.
00:15:19I can see why my father spoke so highly of you.
00:15:21Idiots. Do they really not know
00:15:23I'm taking credit for that loser Eric's work?
00:15:25Whatever.
00:15:27As long as the boss's son likes me,
00:15:29I can keep climbing the ladder.
00:15:31Mr. Dorsey,
00:15:33you tried to sabotage our company.
00:15:35Right after you were fired,
00:15:37the system crashed.
00:15:39There's reason to believe
00:15:41that this was your attempt at revenge.
00:15:53Boss, good news.
00:15:55Eric Martin, that tech whiz you had on your radar,
00:15:57he just left Dorsey Tech.
00:15:59He did?
00:16:01Mm-hmm. It happened ten minutes ago.
00:16:03He was fired by the CEO's son, William.
00:16:05Ha!
00:16:07Oh, that's hilarious.
00:16:09I want to see the look on that old hag
00:16:11Asher Dorsey's face when he realizes
00:16:13that the genius he recruited
00:16:15just got sacked by his idiot son.
00:16:17But Boss Hendrick's tech
00:16:19is just a mid-level startup.
00:16:21Will someone as talented as him really want to join us?
00:16:23We have to get him on our side.
00:16:25By any means necessary.
00:16:27You have no idea
00:16:29how groundbreaking his work in AI modeling is.
00:16:33Get the car ready.
00:16:35I'm going to the Dorsey office.
00:16:37And Eric
00:16:39is mine.
00:16:45Revenge?
00:16:47What the hell are you talking about?
00:16:49Don't play dumb.
00:16:51The system's crashed right after you got fired.
00:16:53This couldn't have been a coincidence.
00:16:55Yet, you still deny it.
00:16:57Bullshit.
00:16:59You guys have always looked down on me
00:17:01as some nobody maintenance worker.
00:17:03Now you're going to blame me
00:17:05when the server gets hacked.
00:17:07None of you idiots have any shred of common sense.
00:17:09If you had a common sense,
00:17:11you'd have a job.
00:17:13I'm not going to argue with you in front of Mr. Dorsey.
00:17:17What the hell are you trying to do?
00:17:19You either tell them the truth
00:17:21or they're going to take you to the police station.
00:17:23I had no idea
00:17:25you were such a vengeful person.
00:17:27What other tricks do you have up your sleeve?
00:17:29Better come clean now
00:17:31or you're going to jail.
00:17:33Alright.
00:17:35What are you waiting for?
00:17:39Arrest me.
00:17:41Let's see if you have any real evidence.
00:17:47What are you doing, man?
00:17:49We don't got handcuffs.
00:17:51Without a shred of remorse?
00:17:53Don't you know that Mr. Dorsey
00:17:55is going to make your life a living hell?
00:17:57Mr. Dorsey, the way I see it,
00:17:59you should teach this asshole a lesson.
00:18:01Yeah, William.
00:18:03A scumbag like him should never get away with this.
00:18:05No, no.
00:18:09From this day on,
00:18:11Eric Martin is now blacklisted
00:18:13from Dorsey Tech
00:18:15and all of its industry partners.
00:18:17You know what this means, dude?
00:18:19You're now kicked out of Silicon Valley, bro.
00:18:25I just have one question.
00:18:27Does Asher,
00:18:29the CEO,
00:18:31know that I've been fired?
00:18:33Why should the CEO be bothered
00:18:35with firing a loser like you?
00:18:37You thought you were real hot shit,
00:18:39didn't you?
00:18:41Boys, take him to the police.
00:18:43Yes, sir.
00:18:45Stop right there.
00:18:57There'll be no need to take him away.
00:18:59He's joining Hendrix Tech.
00:19:05He's joining Hendrix Tech.
00:19:07Oh, I recognize you.
00:19:09You're Evelyn Hendrix,
00:19:11CEO of Hendrix Tech.
00:19:13Evelyn,
00:19:15what are you doing here?
00:19:17I'm here for you, of course.
00:19:19I haven't seen you since college.
00:19:21What?
00:19:23A dummy like you went to college with her?
00:19:25So is this how Dorsey Tech
00:19:27treats its former employees?
00:19:29I would have expected better from you.
00:19:31Miss Hendrix, I...
00:19:33These are high-level conversations
00:19:35between company CEOs.
00:19:37Someone of your rank should know
00:19:39when to shut her mouth.
00:19:41Miss Hendrix,
00:19:43this prick, Eric,
00:19:45has severely...
00:19:47Sorry, who are you?
00:19:49I... I'm, uh...
00:19:51I don't really have time to listen to your jabbering.
00:19:53Oh, my God. Okay, look.
00:19:55Right after I fired this imbecile,
00:19:57our company's server crashed.
00:19:59He clearly hacked into our system.
00:20:01His actions have had serious consequences
00:20:03for our company.
00:20:05So, yeah, man, I don't understand
00:20:07why you're challenging me
00:20:09Did you really not ask your father
00:20:11about who Eric is?
00:20:15Of course I asked my father.
00:20:17He said that Eric's some kind of slacker
00:20:19who cheated his way into the company.
00:20:23Slacker?
00:20:25Is that really what Asher said?
00:20:27Word for word.
00:20:29He said,
00:20:31fire this loser as soon as you get the chance.
00:20:35Asher met with me
00:20:37multiple times
00:20:39and begged for me to come join
00:20:41Dorsey Tech. It doesn't make sense
00:20:43that he would change his mind like this.
00:20:45Give me a break, Eric.
00:20:47The boss wouldn't waste his precious time
00:20:49recruiting someone like you.
00:20:51Fine.
00:20:53If that's how it's gonna be,
00:20:55then there's nothing left to say to you.
00:20:57Or Dorsey Tech.
00:21:01Eric, how would you feel
00:21:03about coming over to Hendrix Tech?
00:21:05Oh.
00:21:07Uh.
00:21:09You'll be a principal shareholder
00:21:11and you'll also have a salary of $4 million per year.
00:21:13I want to make you our lead software engineer.
00:21:27I'm sorry, a principal shareholder?
00:21:29$4 million dollar salary?
00:21:31Mr. Hendrix, you're giving him
00:21:33a lot. I mean, you're out of your damn mind.
00:21:35This woman's got to screw loose.
00:21:37You know he was just a maintenance worker
00:21:39at Dorsey Tech, right?
00:21:41And now you want to make him a millionaire?
00:21:45Uh, Evelyn.
00:21:47I know you're trying to help, but
00:21:49like, I don't want the money.
00:21:51Then,
00:21:53would this suit you?
00:21:55Are you kidding me?
00:21:57This is insane!
00:21:59If you join Hendrix Tech,
00:22:01you can have anything you want.
00:22:05Including me.
00:22:07Okay.
00:22:09Uh, look, Ms. Hendrix,
00:22:11you're a self-made woman, which I respect.
00:22:13So, for your own good, let me remind you
00:22:15that this loser that you've set your mind on
00:22:17is some dick who loves to
00:22:19slack on the job.
00:22:21My father said it himself.
00:22:23Okay.
00:22:25Alright.
00:22:27Well.
00:22:31What?
00:22:37What's all that?
00:22:39See, that
00:22:41would be all the things your father gave me.
00:22:43The car, the money,
00:22:45my relationship.
00:22:47See, they're all yours now.
00:22:49You can tell Asher
00:22:51that from this day forward,
00:22:53I, Eric Martin,
00:22:55will formally be severing my ties
00:22:57with Dorsey Tech.
00:22:59Self-pity.
00:23:01You didn't deserve those things to begin with.
00:23:03It's right that you returned them.
00:23:05You guys are shameless.
00:23:07You don't even see your employees
00:23:09as human beings.
00:23:11Ms. Hendrix,
00:23:13I know that you and Dorsey Tech
00:23:15are competitors.
00:23:17Yes, but to be honest,
00:23:19right now we're actually struggling to compete with them.
00:23:21Don't worry.
00:23:25I can help change that.
00:23:29I can help change that.
00:23:31Look at yourself, Eric.
00:23:33Offering to work for a smaller company?
00:23:35What a joke.
00:23:39I'm sorry, a trader like you doesn't have the right
00:23:41to judge others.
00:23:43How dare you?
00:23:45The breach of the company's server has caused major damage.
00:23:47As the perpetrator of this attack,
00:23:49I demand you to issue an apology
00:23:51to Dorsey Tech and all of its customers.
00:23:53And if you don't,
00:23:55I'll have to press charges.
00:23:57Okay.
00:23:59Good luck with that.
00:24:01What are you going to do about it?
00:24:03You have no choice but to issue that apology.
00:24:05Stop threatening my employee.
00:24:07If you insist on escalating this,
00:24:09then send a demand letter to Hendrix Tech
00:24:11and we'll see it as a declaration of war.
00:24:15Well, if war is what you want,
00:24:17that's what you'll get.
00:24:19You know what?
00:24:23You know what?
00:24:27You know what?
00:24:33Let's go.
00:24:35I'd be sick if I stayed another second in this shithole.
00:24:45Mr. Dorsey,
00:24:47don't waste time with those people.
00:24:49Eric, you've done well.
00:24:51I'm going to assign you
00:24:53the role of lead engineer.
00:24:55That's amazing, sir.
00:24:59What about me, darling?
00:25:01Oh, don't worry, my dear.
00:25:03I'll make sure that you're satisfied.
00:25:07Ew, gross.
00:25:09I won't let you down.
00:25:11Good.
00:25:13Tell me, how did you resolve the systems crash?
00:25:15Oh.
00:25:17Fuck! The tablet's in the office.
00:25:19What should I say?
00:25:21I used a one-of-a-kind code
00:25:23that I developed myself
00:25:25to get the server back up and running.
00:25:27I can explain it to you in detail later.
00:25:29Spoken like a true visionary.
00:25:31Man's even got his own code.
00:25:33You know what?
00:25:35Don't even bother showing it to me.
00:25:37I'm sure it's exquisite.
00:25:39Keep working your magic, buddy.
00:25:41With you on my team, I can relax.
00:25:43Thank you, sir.
00:25:45Let's go.
00:25:47Say hello to Dorsey Tech's new lead engineer.
00:25:49Let's see if anyone looks down on me now.
00:25:51Hello?
00:25:53Hi, Mr. Dorsey.
00:25:55It's Evelyn Hendricks.
00:25:57I'm just calling to inform you
00:25:59that as of today,
00:26:01Hendricks Tech has a horse
00:26:03in the A.I. development race.
00:26:05What?
00:26:07I'm sorry.
00:26:09I'm sorry.
00:26:11I'm sorry.
00:26:13I'm sorry.
00:26:15I'm sorry.
00:26:17A.I. development
00:26:19is the crown jewel of Dorsey Tech.
00:26:21Are you sure you want to challenge us?
00:26:23As I said,
00:26:25I'm just calling to inform you.
00:26:27Not to have a discussion.
00:26:29Hang on a minute.
00:26:31It's him.
00:26:39What's that sly fox up to?
00:26:41What's that sly fox up to?
00:26:43She knows I have my lethal weapon,
00:26:45Eric, so why would she want to
00:26:47go to war with me?
00:26:49Unless...
00:27:03Dad, what's up?
00:27:05Tell me you didn't fire Eric.
00:27:07Uh, okay.
00:27:09Um, just calm down
00:27:11just for a second.
00:27:13I only fired the slacker you told me about.
00:27:15Okay, then explain to me
00:27:17why Hendricks Tech is suddenly
00:27:19wanting to go to war with us.
00:27:21Well, I...
00:27:23I just tricked her into thinking
00:27:25that she had a chance.
00:27:27I mean, I'm not an idiot.
00:27:29There's no way I would let some lousy slacker
00:27:31bring down our entire server single-handedly.
00:27:33But I got Evelyn to believe
00:27:35that Eric really did it.
00:27:37She thinks she hit the jackpot, but
00:27:39really she's just picking up our trash.
00:27:41So you intentionally misled Evelyn?
00:27:45She's under the impression that the loser
00:27:47she poached from us
00:27:49is the mastermind behind Dorsey Tech's
00:27:51AI modeling. That's why she had the guts
00:27:53to declare war. Nice job, son.
00:27:55That shows real initiative.
00:27:57I think it's time you
00:27:59take full control of our
00:28:01next-gen AI modeling project.
00:28:03R-Really?
00:28:07Dad,
00:28:09thank you. Thank you so much.
00:28:11Now get to work.
00:28:13We are going to make Hendricks Tech
00:28:15the laughingstock of the whole
00:28:17industry.
00:28:19Alright. Bye-bye, love.
00:28:21Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
00:28:25Sir,
00:28:27AI modeling is the future of Dorsey Tech.
00:28:29William just
00:28:31graduated. You sure
00:28:33you want to hand the reins over to him this soon?
00:28:35I'd not have given it to him if he was the only one we were
00:28:37counting on. Don't forget,
00:28:39we still have our ace in the hole.
00:28:43You mean Eric Martin?
00:28:45That's right.
00:28:47All I have to do is
00:28:49stay hands-off and let him do what he does
00:28:51best. As long as we have
00:28:53Eric, Hendricks has
00:28:55a snowball's chance in hell.
00:28:57Plus,
00:28:59Evelyn fell for William's bluff
00:29:01and hired that clown Eric.
00:29:03Now all we have to do is
00:29:05sit back and watch her
00:29:07self-destruct.
00:29:09Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
00:29:21So, now that you've seen the engineering
00:29:23department, what are your thoughts?
00:29:25It's not bad.
00:29:27Small group, but they're talented.
00:29:29All we need is a few
00:29:31programmers with specialized knowledge in the field
00:29:33of AI. Precisely.
00:29:35So,
00:29:37is there any chance that our lead
00:29:39engineer, Mr. Martin,
00:29:41could put together a team?
00:29:43I heard that you weren't the only
00:29:45one that William Dorsey fired.
00:29:49You've got it all figured out, don't you?
00:29:51Alright,
00:29:53give me a minute.
00:29:55I'll call the guys.
00:29:57Great. Welcome.
00:30:05Come in.
00:30:07Mr. Dorsey, you wanted to see me?
00:30:09Yes.
00:30:11My father has just put me
00:30:13in charge of our AI modeling
00:30:15projects. Seeing as you're lead
00:30:17engineer, I'm putting you in charge of development.
00:30:19I, uh...
00:30:21Sir?
00:30:23Is there a problem?
00:30:27No, not at all.
00:30:29Don't worry.
00:30:31I'm the right man for the job.
00:30:35Yes?
00:30:37William,
00:30:39there's been another crisis. Several
00:30:41key employees from the tech department have resigned.
00:30:43The department can't function like this.
00:30:45What? They just left?
00:30:47Why? They wouldn't say,
00:30:49but rumor has it they were poached
00:30:51by a former employee.
00:30:53Poached by a former... Fucking Eric Martin.
00:30:55William, what should
00:30:57we do? There's hardly any tech workers
00:30:59left. If anyone else resigns, we're done for.
00:31:01There's no need to freak out.
00:31:03You still have me. I can fix this.
00:31:05Yes.
00:31:07With you here, we're gonna be
00:31:09alright. What's your solution?
00:31:11Look, we lost a few
00:31:13expendable employees. That's it.
00:31:15Let them walk.
00:31:17We'll get better ones. I'll make a few
00:31:19calls.
00:31:25I like that.
00:31:27I like that. Yes.
00:31:29Oh! Fucking Eric Martin.
00:31:31Oh! Oh!
00:31:33This is all going swimmingly.
00:31:35Now I can put my own people in
00:31:37key positions. Soon, I'll have the
00:31:39whole company under my thumb.
00:31:43Johnny is an excellent
00:31:45programmer. He'll be assuming the role
00:31:47of department head. And this is
00:31:49Ruby, Leon, and Mateo.
00:31:51They're professional and reliable
00:31:53former co-workers of mine. With this
00:31:55team, Hendrix Tech's AI
00:31:57work will be in good hands.
00:31:59We're all pleased to meet you, Evelyn.
00:32:01Welcome, everyone.
00:32:03It's great to have you all on board, but I do
00:32:05want to warn you that there is lots
00:32:07of work to do. We have a ways
00:32:09to go if we want to compete with Dorsey Tech.
00:32:11With Eric at the helm,
00:32:13we'll always be one step ahead.
00:32:15But Dorsey Tech has already
00:32:17developed their own AI program.
00:32:19That?
00:32:21It's a trial version.
00:32:23If they keep developing based
00:32:25on that model, then... Then
00:32:27what?
00:32:29Then we won't have to lift a finger.
00:32:41We used our experience on the trial version
00:32:43to build a next-gen AI neural net,
00:32:45patching up the previous loopholes
00:32:47and weaknesses. Even if Dorsey
00:32:49Tech analyzes the trial version
00:32:51framework and builds a brand new platform,
00:32:53we'll still have the upper hand.
00:32:55And if they keep building based on the old
00:32:57trial version, then we can just sit back
00:32:59and watch them fail. Mark my words.
00:33:01In this battle for dominance,
00:33:03Hendrix Tech is destined
00:33:05for victory.
00:33:13Ah.
00:33:153 a.m. again.
00:33:19Okay, okay.
00:33:27Uh, Ms. Hendrix.
00:33:29Come on, we're
00:33:31all alone here. Call me Evelyn.
00:33:33Are you
00:33:35always this way towards people who are
00:33:37crushing on you?
00:33:39Crushing
00:33:41on me?
00:33:43You still can't tell.
00:33:45Eric,
00:33:47I like you.
00:33:49I've felt this way since college.
00:33:55You were the
00:33:57prettiest girl on campus.
00:33:59I didn't think you'd go for
00:34:01a guy like me.
00:34:03I've never had my sights set on anyone
00:34:05else. Only you.
00:34:07But you were so
00:34:09oblivious. And when I
00:34:11finally got the courage to tell you how I
00:34:13felt, you disappeared.
00:34:15I went abroad to
00:34:17work on a top-secret trading
00:34:19project. I know.
00:34:21You've always been
00:34:23so brilliant.
00:34:25Back then, I
00:34:27made up my mind. I was gonna be
00:34:29with you one day.
00:34:33Evelyn, I...
00:34:35And when I founded Hendrix Tech,
00:34:37I wanted to recruit you, but that sneaky
00:34:39bastard, Asher Dorsey,
00:34:41he already had snatched
00:34:43you up.
00:34:45I see.
00:34:49So,
00:34:51if I came closer to you now,
00:34:55would you mind?
00:34:57I...
00:35:01I should...
00:35:03It's
00:35:05late. I should probably
00:35:07be going.
00:35:09Where are you gonna go?
00:35:11You lost everything when you
00:35:13left Dorsey Tech.
00:35:15You kinda have nowhere to go
00:35:17now.
00:35:23Evelyn, I...
00:35:25Let's go.
00:35:29Go where?
00:35:31I'm taking you home.
00:35:39This is it?
00:35:43From now until the AI project
00:35:45is finished, you'll be staying with me.
00:35:47For that long?
00:35:49You sure that's a
00:35:51good idea? I'm your boss, remember.
00:35:53It'll make it easier for me
00:35:55to, um, supervise
00:35:57you.
00:35:59Okay, um...
00:36:01Where am I gonna sleep?
00:36:05Well, I only have one bedroom,
00:36:07so you're gonna have to
00:36:09share a bed with me.
00:36:11Oh, uh...
00:36:13That's... We probably
00:36:15shouldn't, um...
00:36:17I'm messing with you.
00:36:19My place is huge. At least as big as
00:36:21wherever Dorsey had you. Come on.
00:36:23I'll show you your room.
00:36:25Okay.
00:36:29This is what you've got?
00:36:31You're fucking useless!
00:36:33Sir, the modeling framework
00:36:35we're working with is extremely
00:36:37complex. We'll need at least another
00:36:39month to fully
00:36:41understand it.
00:36:45A month? Not a
00:36:47chance! I'm gonna give
00:36:49you three days, and I want
00:36:51consistent progress reports!
00:36:53Sir, if we have to rush things, there'll be an increased risk for error.
00:36:55Then you have to work faster
00:36:57and smarter. I'm giving you
00:36:59three days!
00:37:01Eric. Mr. Dorsey.
00:37:03I want things.
00:37:05You dropped your keyboard.
00:37:07Oh. Get back to work.
00:37:11Mr. Dorsey.
00:37:13Things are going great. We'll be on stage
00:37:15two in three more days.
00:37:17That's good to hear. You know, I knew
00:37:19I could trust you with this.
00:37:21William.
00:37:27Update me on the AI project.
00:37:29Don't sweat it, Dad. Everything's going
00:37:31according to plan. Wonderful.
00:37:33When our new platform hits the market,
00:37:35I'll stop by to congratulate you.
00:37:39Your father must be so proud of you.
00:37:41Keep it up.
00:37:43Once we hit the market, I'll be sure to let my father know
00:37:45how valuable you've been to us.
00:37:47That's exactly what I need.
00:37:49Mr. Dorsey.
00:37:51My job is to put the plans
00:37:53of expert strategists like yourself
00:37:55into action.
00:37:57I believe that if I were the vice president
00:37:59of this company, I could do that
00:38:01even more effectively.
00:38:03If this project does well,
00:38:05I'll see what I can do for you.
00:38:07Really? That's great. Thank you so much, sir.
00:38:09You're up.
00:38:17Come on.
00:38:19I'm good.
00:38:21I've got to go.
00:38:23I'm sorry.
00:38:25I can't wait for you to get your last shot.
00:38:27I know you can do it.
00:38:29I don't have time.
00:38:31I'm sorry.
00:38:33I can't wait for you to get your last shot.
00:38:35I know you can do it.
00:38:37Come on. You can keep staring at me over breakfast.
00:38:45Right. Breakfast.
00:38:50Ah, that looks amazing.
00:38:58When you're done with breakfast, it's straight to work. Got it?
00:39:02Yeah, of course.
00:39:05Good. And when you're finished with your project, I have a reward waiting.
00:39:26All right, team.
00:39:29We have an important sprint coming up. We have a lot to do and not a lot of time.
00:39:34So let's get to business.
00:39:37And some good news for you guys. I've been in touch with the financing department.
00:39:42And you will be receiving paid trips to an all-inclusive resort in Cancun once we wrap.
00:39:47All right. Awesome. Cool.
00:39:50On top of that, when we go public, you will be receiving a bonus as well as a share in our product revenue.
00:39:57Here at Hendrix, our employees are instrumental in our success, and you will be treated as such.
00:40:06We're ready to make it happen, Ms. Hendrix.
00:40:08Oh, amen. Ms. Hendrix, we will have good news for you soon.
00:40:12Yeah, the news that we beat Dorsey Tech. And with Erica on our side, we can't lose.
00:40:17Beat Dorsey. Beat Dorsey. Beat Dorsey. Beat Dorsey. Beat Dorsey.
00:40:26Beat Dorsey. Beat Dorsey. Beat Dorsey.
00:40:57Huh.
00:41:16You're hopeless, both of you.
00:41:21Sir, I-
00:41:23Don't speak without my permission!
00:41:26I give you a simple task, and repeatedly you keep screwing it up!
00:41:31How did you blockheads get this job working here anyway?
00:41:35We have a whole AI framework that's just waiting to be used, yet you keep twiddling your thumbs!
00:41:41Either you finish this by the deadline, or you can get the fuck out!
00:41:46Is that clear?
00:41:48Yes, sir.
00:41:50Dad didn't tell me this Eric guy had such a hot temper.
00:41:54And didn't Eric say everything was going fine? Was I wrong to trust him?
00:42:05Mr. Dorsey, what are you doing here?
00:42:09Tell me the truth. Are we on track to make the deadline or not?
00:42:12I can assure you we're doing fine. We're just adding a few finishing touches, so, uh, things are a bit hectic.
00:42:18Good. Well, don't be afraid to ask any questions, okay? Don't want any slip-ups.
00:42:24Got it.
00:42:27Alright.
00:42:29Darling.
00:42:31Not now. Get me the reports and ask for them.
00:42:41Let's see where you'd be without your daddy's money, you little shit.
00:42:45The fuck are you looking at? Get back to work! And this time, I want results!
00:42:58Ms. Hendricks, I've just been informed that Dorsey Tech's NextGen AI platform is nearing completion.
00:43:04It's just a matter of time before it hits the market.
00:43:06Really? That fast?
00:43:08Well, there's a cocktail party three days from now.
00:43:10Dorsey's going to be there announcing their new product and pitching to investors.
00:43:15They're taking things to the next level.
00:43:17That William Dorsey is really milking all his connections.
00:43:21If this goes well for them, we're going to be in a difficult spot.
00:43:24Well, that much is obvious, but I don't know—
00:43:27Good thing we're finished, too.
00:43:29What? Really?
00:43:31Why would I lie? We've been right on pace with Dorsey this whole time.
00:43:35Plus, the sooner they want to go public, the easier it'll be for us.
00:43:39Why would it be better for us?
00:43:43Evelyn, remember what I told you when I first came on board?
00:43:48But Dorsey Tech has already developed their own AI program.
00:43:52That? It's a trial version.
00:43:56If they keep developing based on that model, then—
00:43:59Then what?
00:44:02Then we won't have to lift a finger.
00:44:09Hmm. So, what you're saying is that Dorsey Tech has been building off of the trial version that you made?
00:44:17It's the only way they could have built it so fast.
00:44:20It's a rough draft with a whole mess of flaws I wouldn't make a second time.
00:44:23Evelyn, there's nothing for us to worry about.
00:44:27That does make sense.
00:44:29Well then, good.
00:44:31Thank you. I'm grateful to you and the team for all your hard work.
00:44:33Tell everyone in the tech department that they can take the next three days off.
00:44:37They'll need their rest before we bring product to market.
00:44:40Yes, Ms. Hendricks.
00:44:44This is a big day for us.
00:44:49Why don't we end it with a drink?
00:44:54Aren't you a lightweight?
00:44:56Who said that?
00:44:59I can handle myself.
00:45:02I can handle my liquor, Eric Martin.
00:45:17I knew you could be fun. I knew it.
00:45:21I told you.
00:45:23See, that's why that last drink was a bad idea.
00:45:26It was a good idea and I could have had at least two more.
00:45:31Yeah, no, you absolutely could. Definitely.
00:45:35You think that you are wild.
00:45:38Okay. No, no.
00:45:42See, I'm a lightweight. Super easy.
00:45:49Eric, now do you believe I want a guy like you?
00:45:54I want a guy like you.
00:46:00Maybe you should go sober up.
00:46:09I'm sober enough.
00:46:13And what I want is you.
00:46:25William, we've been together for some time now.
00:46:29And my feelings for you have only grown stronger by the day.
00:46:33Let's get married.
00:46:39Hey, where are you?
00:46:42Everyone's out here celebrating and you're a no-show.
00:46:46What a buzzkill.
00:46:48I'm coming.
00:46:50No, that's alright. You know, everyone's leaving.
00:46:54Don't bother.
00:46:56Bye.
00:47:01Hey.
00:47:02Hey. Where'd you go? I missed you.
00:47:07It's fine.
00:47:10He just had a bit too much to drink.
00:47:13You know, there is a killer martini spot right up the street.
00:47:17Oh.
00:47:18I can get the bartender to whip up something special for you.
00:47:21I'd like that.
00:47:22You would?
00:47:23Mm-hmm.
00:47:24Oh, you're so much hotter than that bitch Fernanda.
00:47:27She's just a climber who hops from her ex over to me.
00:47:30You know, she's the kind of woman you throw some money at and then send her away.
00:47:34That's who she is.
00:47:36William, how could you do this to me?
00:47:41You know, she, she, the funny thing is, is she thinks I actually love her.
00:47:45I've bagged a hundred babes that are better than her.
00:47:48She's delusional.
00:47:51Ugh, how pathetic.
00:47:53Probably just broke up with her boyfriend or something.
00:48:00Yeah, who gives a shit?
00:48:02You know, I'm gonna break up with Fernanda soon, too.
00:48:05And I'll be waiting for you, Daddy.
00:48:08Oh, shit.
00:48:15God damn it!
00:48:18What have I done?
00:48:22It's going to be so awkward at work now.
00:48:25And I didn't even get the chance to propose to William.
00:48:30God damn it! What have I done?
00:48:36Eric.
00:48:39It's so cold.
00:48:42Eric.
00:48:45Eric.
00:49:01It's fine. I already saw everything last night anyway.
00:49:09How do I look?
00:49:11Um...
00:49:14Beautiful.
00:49:18Come on, get up. I have your suit ready, too.
00:49:22Where are we going?
00:49:24Where else? We're gonna go crash Dorsey Tech's little cocktail party.
00:49:41Okay.
00:49:53What you doing hiding over here?
00:49:56I told you, you're here as my girlfriend.
00:49:59We have to look the part.
00:50:01Mr. Dorsey.
00:50:03With money like yours, there must be plenty of other girlfriends you can call.
00:50:07Okay. What's got into you?
00:50:10You want me to cut your salary or something? Because I can do that.
00:50:13Whatever. Just wait until I'm wasted.
00:50:16Drunk words are sober thoughts.
00:50:19Okay.
00:50:21Mr. Dorsey.
00:50:23Let's have a toast.
00:50:25To winning over the investors and taking over the market by storm.
00:50:30Cheers.
00:50:32Cheers.
00:50:37Cheers.
00:50:48Oh, fuck.
00:50:50Hey.
00:50:52Come here.
00:51:06Well, well, well.
00:51:08If it isn't that little rat I fired from Dorsey Tech.
00:51:12Miss Hendricks.
00:51:14I see you've taken quite a liking to this loser.
00:51:18Idiot.
00:51:19Right here.
00:51:20Why wouldn't I like Eric?
00:51:22He's a tech genius and the brains behind our new AI platform.
00:51:27Firing him was your loss.
00:51:32Okay.
00:51:34Thanks to Mr. Dorsey's leadership and my fearless efforts.
00:51:38Dorsey Tech AI platform is now reaching the market.
00:51:42You talk a big game.
00:51:44But the only reason why you're here is to ride our coattails.
00:51:49So what's really funny about that is that we're about to release our own AI platform.
00:51:58Oh, is that so?
00:52:00Well, you frauds don't have a shot against us.
00:52:04How much overtime did you use to make a platform that no one's going to use?
00:52:08Burn, dude. You hear that?
00:52:11Yeah, I would say our monopoly on the tech industry is secure.
00:52:16So, Miss Hendricks, why don't you go on that little love train straight to bankruptcy?
00:52:21We'll see which product no one wants to use.
00:52:25Jesus, Eric.
00:52:27Didn't we like just break up?
00:52:29Look at you.
00:52:31Already head over heels for another woman.
00:52:35Excuse me.
00:52:38What's up? Talk to me.
00:52:40Do you have any idea where I am?
00:52:43What?
00:52:45The server crashed?
00:52:49Okay, yep.
00:52:51Okay, yep.
00:52:53What the fuck?
00:52:54Server crashed.
00:52:55I'll make a call.
00:52:56Yeah, make a call.
00:52:57It'll be fixed in a minute.
00:52:58Yeah, that's...
00:53:00Wow.
00:53:01He's got it. Yeah, yeah, he's got it.
00:53:03Use the amelioration algorithm.
00:53:06Yes.
00:53:07Do it.
00:53:08What?
00:53:09Amelioration algorithm.
00:53:10That's what I call the code I save on my tablet, but it's only for emergencies.
00:53:14It won't solve the core problem.
00:53:16Wait, did Eric steal my tablet?
00:53:18Another server crash, huh?
00:53:20If your systems are so unpredictable, you sure people are going to trust your new product?
00:53:27Yeah, this doesn't concern you at all.
00:53:30What's up, man? We figure it out?
00:53:32Yeah.
00:53:34Got it fixed.
00:53:35No big deal.
00:53:36No big deal.
00:53:39Wait, did you just say the company's server crashes? No big deal.
00:53:44This is an internal affair.
00:53:46Internal.
00:53:47And you were driven out.
00:53:50So I would keep your mouth shut.
00:53:52The amelioration algorithm is for emergencies only.
00:53:55It won't address the core issue.
00:53:56So the concurrency bug will just lead to more data corruption and more system crashes.
00:54:01Such a noob mistake.
00:54:03If you understood code, you'd know that.
00:54:05You'd know that.
00:54:06Oh my God, if you would understand code, you wouldn't.
00:54:08Dude, like seriously, do you hear yourself?
00:54:11What do you know? Take your bullshit theories somewhere else, please, man.
00:54:17Right. What do I know?
00:54:20I wrote the amelioration algorithm.
00:54:22What did you just say?
00:54:27I wrote the amelioration algorithm.
00:54:30I'm in HR and the boss still didn't tell me about the mysterious tech genius he hired.
00:54:35Was it really Eric all along?
00:54:37Ugh, what have I done?
00:54:39Shut up.
00:54:40What? Mr. Dorsey, you can't believe a word they say.
00:54:43They are our competitors.
00:54:45Right. Believe whatever you want.
00:54:48What a dumpster fire.
00:54:51Let's go, honey.
00:54:53Yeah.
00:54:54Oh my God, did you just call him honey?
00:54:57Yeah, so?
00:54:59Back when I recruited Eric, I made the terms very clear.
00:55:02I told him he could have whatever he wanted, including me.
00:55:07I'm not like some people, ignoring talents and abusing their trust.
00:55:11What?
00:55:15I have an image to maintain.
00:55:19Yes, of course.
00:55:20Yes, of course.
00:55:31So, what you're saying is...
00:55:34It's not that I don't respect Hendrix Tech.
00:55:36Dorsey is less an investment risk.
00:55:38And they have greater potential.
00:55:41I can't justify choosing your product over theirs.
00:55:43Mr. Brown, we're a risk worth taking.
00:55:46Once you see our AI platform, I guarantee you'll want to reconsider.
00:55:52Bravo, bravo.
00:55:54That was quite an inspiring sales pitch, Ms. Hendrix.
00:55:59You must be Mr. Dorsey's son.
00:56:01It's a great pleasure.
00:56:03Ms. Hendrix and I were just having a little chat.
00:56:05Naturally, I'll still be investing in Dorsey Tech.
00:56:08Yeah, so, if you're here chasing investments, I would suggest you just give up and go home.
00:56:13With us here, you won't get a ransom from these guys.
00:56:16That's right.
00:56:17Over 90% of the guests here have already invested in our new AI tech program.
00:56:24Best get out while you still can.
00:56:27I'm afraid you're right.
00:56:28We've already spent our investment money in promoting Dorsey's new AI platform, so...
00:56:34And I can assure you that any investment you've made will not be wasted.
00:56:38And your money will be paid back in tenfold.
00:56:40At Dorsey Tech, we treat our partners like family.
00:56:42And that's why we love doing business with you.
00:56:45If I were you, I'd cut my losses and take my leave.
00:56:49Get out. Unless...
00:56:51You also want to invest in Dorsey Tech?
00:56:58Hey, let the jerks have their fun.
00:57:00They won't be laughing for too much longer.
00:57:11Sounds like a plan.
00:57:20Miss Hendricks!
00:57:22Didn't you just tell us to get lost?
00:57:25I didn't want to offend Mr. Dorsey back there. It was all an act.
00:57:28Well, that sounds professional.
00:57:31Then what do you want?
00:57:32Miss Hendricks, investors know to hedge their bets.
00:57:35What Hendricks Tech is doing is impressive, and I want to offer my help.
00:57:41I know you need funds to promote your products, and I want to assist with that.
00:57:45But we need to sign a contract first.
00:57:48No way am I signing a contract with you.
00:57:51At least hear the terms.
00:57:53If your AI product tops Dorsey Tech's, you pay nothing.
00:57:58If they win, you pay everything back.
00:58:02If they win, you pay everything back.
00:58:05What do you say?
00:58:07That's a lot of money we're talking about.
00:58:09It's definitely risky, but I trust Eric.
00:58:16Mr. Brown, we accept your offer.
00:58:19Today, Dorsey Tech's highly anticipated artificial intelligence platform, AI+, was released in the United States.
00:58:24Today, Dorsey Tech's highly anticipated artificial intelligence platform, AI+, was released in the United States.
00:58:31On its first day, AI+, has already gained more than 10 million users,
00:58:35completely eclipsing the efforts of their chief competitor, Hendricks Tech,
00:58:39which also launched their new platform, AI King, on the same day.
00:58:44Evelyn Hendricks has guts, I'll give her that.
00:58:46But dropping her new product on the same day as us?
00:58:49That is career suicide.
00:58:52Let's get to the office, Griffin.
00:58:54Yes, sir.
00:59:04Relax, Mr. Dorsey. Hendricks Tech is no threat.
00:59:08Yeah, I know.
00:59:10Remember when you said that if this project went well, you'd promote me to vice president?
00:59:14Yeah, I remember, but AI+, has just barely hit the market.
00:59:18We can't even call it a success yet.
00:59:20Right, true.
00:59:21Yeah.
00:59:26I have news.
00:59:27Talk to me.
00:59:31The bad news is that Hendricks Tech's AI platform is much more impressive than we thought.
00:59:35The good news is that their consumer numbers are nowhere close to ours.
00:59:39Okay.
00:59:41All right, I'll take it.
00:59:42I'll take it.
00:59:43Like I said, we're unbeatable.
00:59:46Come on, let's celebrate.
00:59:47No, no, not yet.
00:59:50How did Hendricks Tech even get that product out in that timeline?
00:59:53I mean, they got started much later than we did.
00:59:55I heard from a source at their company that their lead engineer is highly skilled.
01:00:00Lead engineer?
01:00:01Eric?
01:00:03I thought he was supposed to be a nobody.
01:00:06Right?
01:00:13Dad, what's up?
01:00:15William, I'm on my way to the office to congratulate you and Eric.
01:00:19Oh, uh, got it.
01:00:23The boss is coming.
01:00:24We can talk to him about my project.
01:00:26Got it.
01:00:28The boss is coming.
01:00:29We can talk to him about my promotion.
01:00:31Shit.
01:00:32Guys, this isn't good.
01:00:34What?
01:00:35What is it now?
01:00:36Our AI platform and company server have both crashed.
01:00:39What the fuck?
01:00:40Right?
01:00:41Every time.
01:00:44Seriously.
01:00:46God damn, dude.
01:00:51What the fuck is going on?
01:00:52Mr. Martin, the AI platform just crashed out of nowhere and brought the whole server down along with it.
01:00:57Then don't just sit around like an idiot.
01:00:59Fix it!
01:01:00Sir, this is an issue with the system's core framework.
01:01:02We didn't build that.
01:01:04What do you mean you didn't build it?
01:01:05We're using the same framework that Eric built before he left.
01:01:07Eric, the guy I fired?
01:01:09Yeah, Eric with a K.
01:01:10E-R-I-K.
01:01:14You took credit for someone else's work.
01:01:16You lied to me!
01:01:18Mr. Dorsey, let me explain.
01:01:19No, there is no time for explanation.
01:01:21Why didn't you rebuild the core framework?
01:01:23Mr. Dorsey, we need to focus on getting the company server up and running.
01:01:26Our users' trust depends on it.
01:01:28Speak!
01:01:29What happened to the company server?
01:01:31Sir, he was the one.
01:01:32Why didn't you do shit?
01:01:33Shut your mouth. Go.
01:01:35The solution he used, the amelioration algorithm, after the last two crashes,
01:01:39it's not designed as a long-term solution to the serious concurrency bug in the code.
01:01:43Every time that bug is reproduced, it leads to more serious corruption.
01:01:47It's been a ticking time bomb ever since.
01:01:49This time, the AI platform went down, brought the whole server down along with it.
01:01:54It's completely unfixable.
01:01:58This was all your fault.
01:02:00William, all of our users are switching over to Hendrix Tech AI platform.
01:02:04What should we do?
01:02:05How the fuck am I supposed to know?
01:02:13Mr. Dorsey, what on earth is going on?
01:02:15I'm not going to let you assholes drag me down like this.
01:02:17Look, sir, I can explain. I'm sorry, okay? It's got to be fixed.
01:02:21I have billions of dollars invested in you, dammit.
01:02:23I'm going to make sure the whole industry knows about this scandal.
01:02:26Dorsey Tech is finished.
01:02:34500,000? We just passed 500,000!
01:02:37You guys, 98, 99, 1 million!
01:02:421 million!
01:02:54Hey, hey, it's still going up! It's still going up!
01:02:56Fuck, fuck, fuck!
01:02:59This is all your fault. This is all your fault!
01:03:02Mr. Dorsey, fuck!
01:03:05I wanted to help you. I was trying to help the company.
01:03:08I've had enough of your bullshit.
01:03:10You fired half the bloody tech departments.
01:03:13What was I supposed to do? And you gave us impossible deadlines.
01:03:16No, no, no, don't make this about me.
01:03:18I get it now. You were using my promotion as bait.
01:03:21You were never going to make me VP.
01:03:23You want your job or not?
01:03:25Is that a threat? Fire me. Do it.
01:03:28You think I won't?
01:03:30If Eric leaves, so do I.
01:03:33Me too.
01:03:35See, when you fired everyone, I replaced them with my people.
01:03:40Go ahead, fire me. You'll clear out your whole tech department.
01:03:44You will sink Dorsey Tech.
01:03:47You were never the prize tech genius at Dorsey Tech.
01:03:50You were the slacker my father warned me about.
01:03:54William!
01:03:58William!
01:03:59William!
01:04:03I'm ashamed to call you my son.
01:04:07What the hell have you done to my company?
01:04:10Dad, I'm sorry.
01:04:13I'm not here for apologies.
01:04:19What the hell is this idiot doing here?
01:04:21I thought you fired him.
01:04:23Where's Eric?
01:04:26Dad, I fired Eric.
01:04:28You fired him?
01:04:31Um, was that a mistake?
01:04:36Dad, are you okay?
01:04:38Hey, are you okay?
01:04:41I busted my fucking balls to get Eric to Dorsey Tech.
01:04:47He was the backbone behind this company.
01:04:50And what did you do?
01:04:53You fired him!
01:04:55So, um, it was Eric with a K all along?
01:04:59No, I fucked up.
01:05:01God, I fucked up.
01:05:03Where is Eric now?
01:05:05I will get down on my knees and beg him to come back.
01:05:10Um, Eric is at Hendricks Tech.
01:05:16You are a sorry excuse for a son.
01:05:21You destroyed my company.
01:05:26Sir?
01:05:29Bad news.
01:05:31It appears that the server crash was just the beginning.
01:05:33What's going on?
01:05:35The crash also affected our automobile software.
01:05:38There have been at least 30 car accidents across the U.S.
01:05:42Oh, fuck.
01:05:44Six people have died.
01:05:51No, no, this isn't my fault.
01:05:54It was Eric's fault. Eric with a K.
01:05:56It was his code that was faulty.
01:05:58No, that's fucking bullshit. I fired him before that happened.
01:06:01But I stumbled upon his tablet and the code that he wrote.
01:06:05I'm only guilty of using his work. Everything else was his fault.
01:06:11I wrote the amelioration algorithm.
01:06:13God, I mistook the genius for the loser.
01:06:16I'm not going down like this.
01:06:19Dorsey Tech ain't finished yet.
01:06:22It's not finished yet.
01:06:24Griffin!
01:06:26Take this man to the police.
01:06:28If Dorsey Tech goes under, he'll have to pay for this.
01:06:32Yes, sir.
01:06:52Mr. Brown, looks like your contract worked in our favor.
01:06:56So we will not be returning the $5 billion you invested.
01:07:00And again, thank you for your generosity.
01:07:02Wait, don't I at least deserve some dividends?
01:07:05I'm sorry, Mr. Brown.
01:07:07But the terms you insisted on were very clear.
01:07:10We beat Dorsey Tech, so we owe you nothing.
01:07:13Which includes any dividends you might have otherwise received.
01:07:16What?
01:07:17No.
01:07:18No more buts.
01:07:20Goodbye, Mr. Brown.
01:07:29Tonight, I'll give you that reward I was telling you about.
01:07:33Oh, I'm sure it'll be very special.
01:07:38You have no idea.
01:07:41Eric!
01:07:44I know I messed up before.
01:07:47It's all over for Dorsey Tech now.
01:07:50Isn't there anything you can do to help me?
01:07:54What the hell are you doing grabbing my boyfriend?
01:07:58Boyfriend?
01:08:00That's right.
01:08:01I'm his girlfriend now.
01:08:03We're living together and we're getting married soon, too.
01:08:06But you can't.
01:08:10No, it's not possible.
01:08:12He was mine first.
01:08:14He was mine first.
01:08:16You dumped him and you treated him like trash.
01:08:21It's a little late for you to come crawling back.
01:08:25Guys, can we...
01:08:29Eric.
01:08:30No.
01:08:31Eric.
01:08:39You're hot when you're bossy.
01:08:41You like?
01:08:42Yeah.
01:08:43Eric?
01:08:44What?
01:08:48Eric?
01:08:50What is it now?
01:08:59Eric, you know how much I've known for you.
01:09:04Dorsey Tech is in dire straits.
01:09:08We need your help.
01:09:10Mr. Dorsey, all those things you gave me,
01:09:13I returned when your son accused me of hacking the company server
01:09:17and demanding compensation.
01:09:20Oh, has he not told you?
01:09:23That is not how it went down at all.
01:09:26It was that dirtbag, Eric with a C,
01:09:29who went behind my back and got me all mixed up.
01:09:32Oh, yeah?
01:09:33Well, your little mix-up made me lose everything I had,
01:09:36including my career.
01:09:39Did it feel good to make me the scapegoat for your mistake?
01:09:42Eric, I am really sorry.
01:09:46I don't want your fake apology,
01:09:48and I'm not coming back to you.
01:09:52So, would you please leave our office?
01:09:58Now, would you please leave our office?
01:10:03We wish Dorsey Tech the very best.
01:10:10You fucking doomed us, son!
01:10:13You doomed Dorsey Tech!
01:10:17Dad, dad, dad!
01:10:19Dad!
01:10:20Dad!
01:10:21Dad!
01:10:28Dad!
01:10:29Dad!
01:10:30Dad!
01:10:31Dad!
01:10:32Dad!
01:10:33Dad!
01:10:34Dad!
01:10:35Dad!
01:10:36Dad!
01:10:37Dad!
01:10:38Dad!
01:10:42So, you're really not gonna help them?
01:10:46They're the ones who fired me.
01:10:48Now they have to live with the outcome.
01:10:51Well, to the sweet taste of victory.
01:10:54To the sweet taste of victory.
