We need to work together.
Sign this and we will.
174
00:08:28,986 --> 00:08:30,422
If you assume full liability
175
00:08:30,727 --> 00:08:34,165
for the $23 million suit
against Vik, he will sign it.
176
00:08:34,339 --> 00:08:36,167
Yes, as long as he plays ball
177
00:08:36,341 --> 00:08:38,169
and says what
we need him to say.
178
00:08:38,343 --> 00:08:41,651
And you agree to pay
his legal fees, too.
179
00:08:41,825 --> 00:08:43,827
Sure. We'll stipulate to that.
180
00:08:44,001 --> 00:08:45,699
VIK: So, I have to lie
181
00:08:45,873 --> 00:08:47,222
- and say I'm guilty?
- [hammering in distance]
182
00:08:47,396 --> 00:08:48,963
No, you just have to say
183
00:08:49,311 --> 00:08:51,922
you don't know how your prank
ended up in the final code.
184
00:08:52,096 --> 00:08:53,358
But it didn't end up
in the final code.
185
00:08:53,620 --> 00:08:55,230
They messed with
the production history.
186
00:08:55,404 --> 00:08:57,624
They're setting me up.
Can't we prove that?
187
00:08:57,798 --> 00:09:00,278
We can try, Vik,
but one thing I've realized:
188
00:09:00,540 --> 00:09:02,280
we're surrounded by Goliaths.
189
00:09:02,454 --> 00:09:04,935
No matter what we do,
they know they can outlast us,
190
00:09:05,109 --> 00:09:07,677
outspend us
and even out-prove us.
191
00:09:07,851 --> 00:09:09,287
But with a joint
defense agreement,
192
00:09:09,461 --> 00:09:10,811
the company will pay
for everything.
193
00:09:10,985 --> 00:09:13,465
You just can't
point the finger at them.
194
00:09:18,862 --> 00:09:19,820
[pen scratches, clatters]
195
00:09:19,994 --> 00:09:22,605
Okay. Thanks.
196
00:09:24,433 --> 00:09:27,044
Good work. He had to hear it.
197
00:09:27,218 --> 00:09:29,003
- I kind of agree with him.
- I know.
198
00:09:29,177 --> 00:09:31,962
But sometimes it's best
to fight another day.
199
00:09:32,963 --> 00:09:34,312
I liked that you were
going after
200
00:09:34,574 --> 00:09:35,966
that country club lawyer...
Scott Flair?
201
00:09:36,140 --> 00:09:37,533
- It was throwing him.
- You think?
202
00:09:37,707 --> 00:09:39,013
I thought I was pretty useless
over there.
203
00:09:39,187 --> 00:09:40,841
They don't like a woman
being in there.
204
00:09:41,015 --> 00:09:42,320
- Use it.
- [doors open]
205
00:09:42,582 --> 00:09:44,801
Okay, I can fix this.
206
00:09:45,628 --> 00:09:46,629
Fix what?
207
00:09:46,890 --> 00:09:48,544
Are you kidding me?
208
00:09:48,718 --> 00:09:50,154
What is it doing over there?
209
00:09:50,459 --> 00:09:51,895
That's where it was on
the blueprints for the start-up.
210
00:09:52,069 --> 00:09:53,723
Yeah, but we said
it needed to be next to here.
211
00:09:53,897 --> 00:09:56,813
Yeah, I know, but Chuck heard
you say that, for $45,000,
212
00:09:56,987 --> 00:09:59,250
he could do whatever he was
gonna do for the start-up.
213
00:09:59,424 --> 00:10:01,252
[sighs]
We can't use it over there.
214
00:10:01,426 --> 00:10:03,603
What'll we do, blindfold people
when they leave reception?
215
00:10:03,777 --> 00:10:05,343
- Can he move it?
- I already talked to him.
216
00:10:05,517 --> 00:10:06,954
He said it's gonna be
just cheaper to build
217
00:10:07,128 --> 00:10:09,086
- a hallway right to it.
- What'll that cost?
218
00:10:09,260 --> 00:10:10,305
Ten thousand dollars.
219
00:10:10,566 --> 00:10:11,828
Okay. You guys
220
00:10:12,133 --> 00:10:13,613
are already halfway there
with this new client.
221
00:10:13,787 --> 00:10:15,092
Yeah, but we have
to pay the lease.
222
00:10:15,266 --> 00:10:16,703
And at some point,
we have to pay ourselves.
223
00:10:16,877 --> 00:10:19,053
Look, you guys
are getting new clients.
224
00:10:19,227 --> 00:10:21,969
A whistleblower called yesterday
looking for a lawyer.
225
00:10:22,230 --> 00:10:24,058
- Whistleblower to what?
- He wouldn't say.
226
00:10:24,232 --> 00:10:26,495
- What's his name?
- Bo.
227
00:10:26,669 --> 00:10:29,454
- Bo what?
- He wouldn't say.
228
00:10:30,673 --> 00:10:33,371
Okay, if he calls again,
229
00:10:33,545 --> 00:10:36,070
tell him he needs
to sign a retainer.
230
00:10:36,244 --> 00:10:37,724
And pay us.
231
00:10:48,038 --> 00:10:49,823
You're him, aren't you?
232
00:10:50,867 --> 00:10:53,740
No.
I-I just...
233
00:10:54,566 --> 00:10:57,657
You destroyed my life.
234
00:10:57,831 --> 00:11:00,050
You left me
with a hole in my heart.
235
00:11:00,311 --> 00:11:02,096
You left my kids without a dad.
236
00:11:02,270 --> 00:11:03,750
And why?
237
00:11:04,489 --> 00:11:05,882
- For a joke?
- OLIVIA: Ma'am.
238
00:11:06,056 --> 00:11:08,058
Ma'am.
239
00:11:10,408 --> 00:11:11,932
Are you okay?
240
00:11:13,324 --> 00:11:14,674
Good morning.
241
00:11:14,935 --> 00:11:16,066
Ready for more questions,
242
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:18,025
- Mr. Malhotra?
- SCOTT: One minute.
243
00:11:18,808 --> 00:11:20,114
Are we ready, Mr. Price?
244
00:11:24,205 --> 00:11:26,468
- We're ready.
- CARL: So,
245
00:11:26,642 --> 00:11:29,645
by your own admission,
you placed pranks
246
00:11:29,819 --> 00:11:31,125
into this drone code.
247
00:11:31,299 --> 00:11:32,604
Is that correct?
248
00:11:34,215 --> 00:11:35,259
Yes.
249
00:11:35,433 --> 00:11:37,435
CARL:
So, you caused the death
250
00:11:37,609 --> 00:11:38,959
of my client's husband?
251
00:11:39,133 --> 00:11:40,830
[baby cries in distance]
252
00:11:41,004 --> 00:11:42,876
Mr. Malhotra.
253
00:11:44,225 --> 00:11:47,968
Mr. Malhotra, would you like
to see the code again?
254
00:11:48,142 --> 00:11:51,798
Would you like me
to repeat the question?
255
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:55,627
Mr. Malhotra,
you caused this drone
256
00:11:55,802 --> 00:11:57,455
- to plummet.
- No, I didn't!
257
00:11:57,629 --> 00:11:59,936
- Okay? MoonChaser
is setting me up.
- Whoa...
258
00:12:00,110 --> 00:12:02,460
No, hey, no. You can't do that.
No, that's a binding agreement.
259
00:12:02,722 --> 00:12:04,985
- It's not binding
until it's filed.
- You already signed.
260
00:12:05,159 --> 00:12:07,030
- We can sue you. This doesn't
- He has an absolute right
261
00:12:07,248 --> 00:12:08,989
- concern you.
- MICHAEL: It's in our
client's best interest.
262
00:12:11,731 --> 00:12:15,082
- What now?
- Now we have to defend you.
263
00:12:15,256 --> 00:12:16,866
I want you to watch it again.
264
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,216
If the software didn't do this,
265
00:12:19,477 --> 00:12:20,914
what did?
266
00:12:21,175 --> 00:12:22,959
Are you religious?
267
00:12:23,133 --> 00:12:25,832
Do you, like, go to church?
268
00:12:26,093 --> 00:12:29,923
Vik, I think we should
watch the video.
269
00:12:30,097 --> 00:12:33,317
There are a lot of hardcore
religious people in tech.
270
00:12:33,578 --> 00:12:35,755
They always invite me
to their meetings, but...
271
00:12:35,929 --> 00:12:39,367
they're all about God being
the ultimate AI kind of thing.
272
00:12:39,541 --> 00:12:41,848
- More a tech god.
- [people screaming]
273
00:12:45,895 --> 00:12:47,157
Do you pray?
274
00:12:47,331 --> 00:12:48,289
Yes.
275
00:12:48,463 --> 00:12:50,030
- Does it work?
- Vik,
276
00:12:50,247 --> 00:12:51,509
when the suit's over,
I'll talk to you all you want,
277
00:12:51,683 --> 00:12:53,773
but right now,
we have to defend you.
278
00:12:58,386 --> 00:12:59,866
- [key clicks]
- [video stops]
279
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:01,519
What?
280
00:13:16,839 --> 00:13:19,711
That's where PayPal was created.
Right there, at that table.
281
00:13:19,886 --> 00:13:22,845
And Tesla's first meeting was
282
00:13:23,106 --> 00:13:24,281
right there.
283
00:13:24,455 --> 00:13:26,240
So, how's your dad doing?
284
00:13:27,284 --> 00:13:29,243
- Good.
- That's what I heard.
285
00:13:29,417 --> 00:13:31,593
Also heard you're making
a name for yourself,
286
00:13:31,767 --> 00:13:34,901
- causing some trouble.
- Yeah, that's, uh...
287
00:13:35,162 --> 00:13:38,165
that's part of what I wanted
to talk to you about, Damon.
288
00:13:38,426 --> 00:13:40,036
Our business plan.
289
00:13:40,210 --> 00:13:42,473
Taking on lawsuits
no one else will.
290
00:13:42,647 --> 00:13:43,953
- That's a dangerous game.
- But profitable.
291
00:13:44,127 --> 00:13:45,868
Everybody's playing up
292
00:13:46,042 --> 00:13:47,783
to Google, Meta, Microsoft,
293
00:13:47,957 --> 00:13:50,264
the rest of the, uh,
Magnificent Seven,
294
00:13:50,438 --> 00:13:52,048
but we won't.
295
00:13:52,396 --> 00:13:54,094
We're small enough to shake
some cash loose in settlements,
296
00:13:54,268 --> 00:13:57,401
and not so big they feel
they need to squash us.
297
00:13:57,575 --> 00:13:59,012
And if they outlast you,
bury you in discovery?
298
00:13:59,186 --> 00:14:01,492
That's why we stay out of court.
299
00:14:01,666 --> 00:14:05,279
We scare them enough in depos
and pretrial hearings,
300
00:14:05,453 --> 00:14:07,759
they settle
instead of taking a PR hit
301
00:14:07,934 --> 00:14:09,500
- from a public case.
- Look,
302
00:14:09,674 --> 00:14:11,589
I can commit to two years
of start-up cash
303
00:14:11,851 --> 00:14:13,635
at $600,000 per year,
304
00:14:13,809 --> 00:14:15,855
if that works for you.
305
00:14:16,029 --> 00:14:18,248
- I-I think it does.
- But first,
306
00:14:18,422 --> 00:14:20,468
- I need you to do something.
- What?
307
00:14:20,642 --> 00:14:22,513
Talk to your dad.
308
00:14:25,038 --> 00:14:26,387
- About?
- I did my due diligence
309
00:14:26,604 --> 00:14:29,607
after you called.
I called him, and he suggested
310
00:14:29,781 --> 00:14:32,784
that I take a breath
before I invest.
311
00:14:33,611 --> 00:14:34,961
Why?
312
00:14:36,005 --> 00:14:38,355
I think you should talk to him.
313
00:14:50,585 --> 00:14:52,500
[line ringing]
314
00:14:52,674 --> 00:14:54,676
Yeah, Bayard Diamond.
315
00:14:54,850 --> 00:14:58,593
Tell him this is his son.
I want to talk.
316
00:14:58,767 --> 00:15:00,247
[phone ringing]
317
00:15:03,815 --> 00:15:05,905
Price, Siffre and Associates.
How may I help you?
318
00:15:06,079 --> 00:15:07,776
BO:
How's your headache?
319
00:15:08,037 --> 00:15:10,735
- Just came back.
- Ah. Is Bo ruining your day?
320
00:15:10,910 --> 00:15:13,738
I don't like guys who refer to
themselves in the third person.
321
00:15:13,913 --> 00:15:16,741
- Oh. [laughs]
- Mm.
322
00:15:16,916 --> 00:15:18,352
Mr. Price is out
at a lunch meeting,
323
00:15:18,526 --> 00:15:20,963
but he left you a message
if you want to hear it.
324
00:15:21,137 --> 00:15:22,225
Please.
325
00:15:22,399 --> 00:15:24,271
Bo wants to hear.
326
00:15:25,185 --> 00:15:27,883
"I need him," meaning you,
327
00:15:28,057 --> 00:15:29,798
"to sign our retainer agreement,
328
00:15:29,972 --> 00:15:31,931
"pay the initial fee
329
00:15:32,105 --> 00:15:33,454
and come in to meet with us."
330
00:15:33,628 --> 00:15:36,761
How much is
the initial... deposit?
331
00:15:36,936 --> 00:15:39,503
- Fifty thousand dollars.
- [laughs]
332
00:15:39,677 --> 00:15:42,637
No, you just inflated that,
didn't you?
333
00:15:42,811 --> 00:15:44,204
Why would I do that, Bo?
334
00:15:44,378 --> 00:15:47,033
I can tell
when people are lying.
335
00:15:47,207 --> 00:15:49,687
Okay.
Look at your computer.
336
00:15:49,949 --> 00:15:51,515
There's an app
I just dropped on it.
337
00:15:51,689 --> 00:15:55,258
Wait. You just dropped
an app on my computer?
338
00:15:55,432 --> 00:15:57,347
- How did you do that?
- Magic.
339
00:15:57,608 --> 00:15:59,393
It's yellow
and it's called "Wallet."
340
00:15:59,567 --> 00:16:02,309
- Click on it.
- If this is a virus,
I am gonna kill you.
341
00:16:03,701 --> 00:16:06,835
I'm guessing $50,000
was already an inflated number,
342
00:16:07,096 --> 00:16:10,621
but I just paid you double
in Bitcoin.
343
00:16:10,795 --> 00:16:13,320
- I don't like Bitcoin.
- Well, go to any exchange,
344
00:16:13,494 --> 00:16:15,539
you can trade it in for dollars
in a minute. Now,
345
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,847
that should buy me eight months
of your law firm's time.
346
00:16:19,021 --> 00:16:21,719
Make sure Michael's in
next time I call.
347
00:16:21,893 --> 00:16:23,199
[hangs up]
348
00:16:27,203 --> 00:16:29,118
- [receiver clatters]
- [elevator bell chimes]
349
00:16:31,816 --> 00:16:33,993
Hi. You okay?
You seem distracted.
350
00:16:34,167 --> 00:16:36,996
Not distracted. Pissed.
Perfect time to cross a witness.
351
00:16:37,170 --> 00:16:39,737
- Meeting didn't go well?
- No.
352
00:16:39,999 --> 00:16:41,478
Vik says this CEO
is really closed-lipped,
353
00:16:41,652 --> 00:16:44,307
so you're gonna have
to work hard to draw him out.
354
00:16:45,004 --> 00:16:47,267
- I'll just imagine he's my dad.
- Mm.
355
00:16:48,529 --> 00:16:49,921
SCOTT:
Do you have
a question, counselor?
356
00:16:50,096 --> 00:16:51,749
Mr. Zeckabrond
only has a few minutes
357
00:16:51,923 --> 00:16:53,490
before he has to take a call.
358
00:16:53,664 --> 00:16:55,492
That's too bad, because...
359
00:16:55,666 --> 00:16:57,364
I have a lot more questions.
360
00:16:57,538 --> 00:17:00,889
Uh, Mr. Zeckabrond,
you're CEO of MoonChaser?
361
00:17:01,063 --> 00:17:03,718
- Yes.
- How much money
did MoonChaser make last year?
362
00:17:04,632 --> 00:17:06,199
I don't know.
363
00:17:08,244 --> 00:17:09,680
Want to take a look
at the numbers at the bottom
364
00:17:09,854 --> 00:17:12,248
of that earning statement?
That's a 40% drop
365
00:17:12,422 --> 00:17:13,945
in your profitability
in one year.
366
00:17:14,120 --> 00:17:16,644
You went from doing
250 public drone shows last year
367
00:17:16,818 --> 00:17:18,472
to only 45 this year.
368
00:17:18,646 --> 00:17:21,214
In what ways did you
make cuts to adjust?
369
00:17:22,476 --> 00:17:24,086
I don't know if we did.
370
00:17:29,396 --> 00:17:32,616
Mr. Zeckabrond, that's a video
of your drone crashing.
371
00:17:32,877 --> 00:17:34,836
See that square of silver
on the side of the drone?
372
00:17:35,010 --> 00:17:36,664
ZECKABROND:
Yes.
373
00:17:36,838 --> 00:17:39,014
What is that?
374
00:17:39,188 --> 00:17:41,408
- I don't know.
- It's a battery.
375
00:17:41,669 --> 00:17:43,149
It's your drone's battery.
376
00:17:43,323 --> 00:17:44,933
We did a reverse image search
and we found that it was
377
00:17:45,107 --> 00:17:46,456
an Ultra Core Drone Battery.
378
00:17:46,717 --> 00:17:47,936
You want to hand that
to your client?
379
00:17:48,110 --> 00:17:50,330
No? Okay.
Now here's a photo
380
00:17:50,504 --> 00:17:52,027
of a drone from
your publicity materials.
381
00:17:52,201 --> 00:17:54,682
It has a different battery.
A QRC Elite.
382
00:17:54,856 --> 00:17:57,163
It's twice as expensive,
but it lasts twice as long.
383
00:17:57,337 --> 00:17:58,860
- What are you saying?
- We're saying
384
00:17:59,034 --> 00:18:00,905
your company took
a financial hit, sir,
385
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:02,994
and to save money, you started
using cheaper batteries,
386
00:18:03,169 --> 00:18:04,387
and that's why your drone
fell out of the sky
387
00:18:04,561 --> 00:18:05,867
and killed Quentin Moore.
388
00:18:06,172 --> 00:18:08,174
It has nothing to do
with our client's code.
389
00:18:08,348 --> 00:18:09,392
I think we've heard
quite enough of this.
390
00:18:09,566 --> 00:18:10,828
Oh, we're just getting started.
391
00:18:11,002 --> 00:18:13,570
Mr. Zeckabrond is needed
on a call. Sir?
392
00:18:13,744 --> 00:18:15,006
[clears throat]
393
00:18:15,833 --> 00:18:18,227
- [indistinct chatter]
- [door opens]
394
00:18:18,401 --> 00:18:21,100
That's the first time
I saw them scared.
395
00:18:21,274 --> 00:18:23,145
- Keep it up.
- Drop the lawsuit against Vik,
396
00:18:23,406 --> 00:18:25,713
- and we will.
- [chuckles]
397
00:18:36,289 --> 00:18:37,942
CHRISTY:
Bo, are you there
398
00:18:38,204 --> 00:18:39,814
or are you just gonna make me
stare at a wall for ten minutes?
399
00:18:39,988 --> 00:18:42,338
Uh, why isn't he coming
into our offices?
400
00:18:42,512 --> 00:18:43,774
He said he wanted
to do it on Zoom.
401
00:18:43,948 --> 00:18:45,298
Do we even know
if the money's real?
402
00:18:45,472 --> 00:18:47,126
He said if we were worried
we could transfer
403
00:18:47,300 --> 00:18:49,084
- the Bitcoin online for cash.
- MICHAEL: No.
404
00:18:49,258 --> 00:18:51,869
We do that,
we're legally representing him.
405
00:18:52,043 --> 00:18:53,306
CHRISTY:
Oh.
406
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:55,960
- So, you do exist.
- For the moment.
407
00:18:56,222 --> 00:18:59,268
Christy? You're exactly
the way I imagined.
408
00:18:59,442 --> 00:19:00,704
Well, you're nothing like I did.
409
00:19:00,878 --> 00:19:02,532
- More handsome?
- Oh, yeah. You wish.
410
00:19:02,750 --> 00:19:05,709
Michael and Olivia are here.
They wanted to talk to you.
411
00:19:05,883 --> 00:19:07,842
MICHAEL:
Uh, yes. Hello, sir.
412
00:19:08,016 --> 00:19:09,583
Thank you for, uh,
hopping on with us,
413
00:19:09,844 --> 00:19:11,715
- Mister...
- Mm-hmm. Oh, just "Bo" is good.
414
00:19:11,889 --> 00:19:14,240
You want us to be your lawyers,
but you don't
415
00:19:14,501 --> 00:19:15,676
want to give us your name?
416
00:19:15,850 --> 00:19:17,591
I want to see
if I trust you first.
417
00:19:17,765 --> 00:19:19,158
Smart.
418
00:19:19,332 --> 00:19:20,855
I'm recording this, too.
419
00:19:21,029 --> 00:19:22,378
MICHAEL:
You paid us $100,000.
420
00:19:22,552 --> 00:19:24,511
That's a lot of trust.
421
00:19:24,685 --> 00:19:26,513
Why don't you come in
for a face-to-face?
422
00:19:26,687 --> 00:19:28,384
- I'd rather not.
- Why not?
423
00:19:28,558 --> 00:19:30,386
You're being surveilled.
424
00:19:31,822 --> 00:19:35,086
- How do you know that?
- I know these companies.
425
00:19:35,261 --> 00:19:37,785
In fact, I don't even
think of them as companies.
426
00:19:37,959 --> 00:19:39,482
They're countries.
427
00:19:40,266 --> 00:19:43,225
If you had $3.8 trillion
in valuation,
428
00:19:43,399 --> 00:19:45,358
how much would you spend
on security and surveillance?
429
00:19:45,532 --> 00:19:48,491
One percent?
A quarter of a percent?
430
00:19:48,752 --> 00:19:49,927
[chuckles]
431
00:19:50,101 --> 00:19:51,581
Even if you were to spend
432
00:19:51,755 --> 00:19:54,541
only one hundredth
of one percent on security,
433
00:19:54,715 --> 00:19:57,021
that still would be one billion
dollars for surveillance,
434
00:19:57,196 --> 00:19:59,415
so you are being surveilled.
435
00:20:04,855 --> 00:20:06,857
What do you want a lawyer for?
436
00:20:07,031 --> 00:20:08,555
- I want to sue a company.
- Which one?
437
00:20:08,816 --> 00:20:10,383
- I can't tell you that.
- MICHAEL: Oh, come on.
438
00:20:10,557 --> 00:20:11,862
We cannot represent you
like this.
439
00:20:12,123 --> 00:20:13,603
I'm not forcing you to.
440
00:20:13,777 --> 00:20:15,997
Ju...
Give us a second.
441
00:20:16,171 --> 00:20:17,564
Can we do
442
00:20:17,738 --> 00:20:19,783
a facial search
and find out who he is?
443
00:20:19,957 --> 00:20:21,350
I don't understand
what the problem is here.
444
00:20:21,524 --> 00:20:22,830
- We need the money.
- He won't give us a name,
445
00:20:23,091 --> 00:20:25,180
he won't tell us the company
he wants to sue,
446
00:20:25,354 --> 00:20:26,921
and he's paying us in Bitcoin.
447
00:20:27,226 --> 00:20:29,140
At my old firm, this would be
drugs or money laundering.
448
00:20:29,315 --> 00:20:30,838
Hey, guys,
this is too much trouble.
449
00:20:31,012 --> 00:20:33,232
I-I respect your hesitation,
but I need to move on,
450
00:20:33,406 --> 00:20:35,669
- I'm be calling the next lawyer
on my list.
- MICHAEL: Sir, we're doing
451
00:20:35,930 --> 00:20:37,061
our due diligence.
452
00:20:37,366 --> 00:20:38,193
You're not giving us
enough information here.
453
00:20:38,367 --> 00:20:39,977
But I am giving you money.
454
00:20:40,151 --> 00:20:42,763
Quite a bit, in fact.
So, this is what I'm gonna do.
455
00:20:42,937 --> 00:20:46,419
Um, I'm giving you
24 hours to decide.
456
00:20:46,593 --> 00:20:48,377
Then I'm moving on.
457
00:20:51,424 --> 00:20:53,077
Do you think
we're being surveilled?
458
00:20:53,252 --> 00:20:55,776
MICHAEL:
I think he's being paranoid.
459
00:20:56,559 --> 00:20:58,561
Think he's making me paranoid.
460
00:20:59,345 --> 00:21:02,478
Okay. We have enough to get us
through to the end of the year,
461
00:21:02,652 --> 00:21:05,916
but not enough
to pay for a hall.
462
00:21:06,090 --> 00:21:08,005
- And the loan?
- Still working on it,
463
00:21:08,179 --> 00:21:10,791
but I wouldn't count on it.
464
00:21:16,144 --> 00:21:19,016
I remember my parents
when I was a kid.
465
00:21:19,190 --> 00:21:20,801
I would lie in bed
and stare at the ceiling,
466
00:21:20,975 --> 00:21:24,718
and hear them arguing downstairs
about the business.
467
00:21:24,892 --> 00:21:26,807
How they were
running out of money,
468
00:21:26,981 --> 00:21:29,157
what they could sacrifice
to keep it going.
469
00:21:29,331 --> 00:21:31,812
Private school, my retainer.
470
00:21:31,986 --> 00:21:35,119
They tried to keep it quiet,
but I could hear it.
471
00:21:35,381 --> 00:21:37,774
I still get stomachaches
thinking about it.
472
00:21:38,862 --> 00:21:41,300
I swore I'd never
go through that again.
473
00:21:44,346 --> 00:21:45,956
I bet you had none of that.
474
00:21:46,957 --> 00:21:50,265
My parents argued
for different reasons.
475
00:21:52,223 --> 00:21:54,225
My dad's girlfriends.
476
00:21:56,010 --> 00:21:58,795
My little sister.
477
00:22:00,362 --> 00:22:02,451
I didn't know you had a sister.
478
00:22:05,149 --> 00:22:06,499
I did.
479
00:22:11,068 --> 00:22:13,897
CHRISTY [in distance]:
Michael! You have a visitor!
480
00:22:14,942 --> 00:22:16,335
Tell him it's his dad.
481
00:22:16,509 --> 00:22:18,293
It's your dad.
482
00:22:18,554 --> 00:22:19,599
[chuckles]
483
00:22:19,860 --> 00:22:21,514
You don't like
to use the intercom?
484
00:22:21,688 --> 00:22:22,863
Too impersonal.
485
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:24,168
We do everything here
by shouting.
486
00:22:24,343 --> 00:22:25,692
Aha.
487
00:22:28,434 --> 00:22:31,088
Dad. I was gonna
come over to you.
488
00:22:31,262 --> 00:22:34,048
I wanted to see
your new offices.
489
00:22:34,222 --> 00:22:35,310
Very nice.
490
00:22:35,484 --> 00:22:36,833
Thanks.
491
00:22:37,007 --> 00:22:39,009
I had a meeting
with Damon Walden.
492
00:22:39,183 --> 00:22:40,924
How about we, uh,
go to your office
493
00:22:41,098 --> 00:22:42,709
- for this?
- No, no, no. Let's, uh...
494
00:22:42,883 --> 00:22:44,450
Let's do it right here.
495
00:22:44,624 --> 00:22:46,669
He said you were
blocking our loan.
496
00:22:46,843 --> 00:22:49,585
"Blocking."
Did he say "blocking"?
497
00:22:49,759 --> 00:22:51,500
- He said to call you.
- Hmm.
498
00:22:51,761 --> 00:22:54,460
What are you doing, Dad?
499
00:22:54,634 --> 00:22:56,200
- [clears throat]
- [mouths]
500
00:22:56,375 --> 00:22:57,637
Okay, yeah. Um...
501
00:22:57,811 --> 00:23:00,335
I'm gonna go to the back room...
502
00:23:00,596 --> 00:23:02,859
I mean, back there, where
503
00:23:03,033 --> 00:23:05,079
all our offices are.
504
00:23:08,952 --> 00:23:11,433
[Bayard speaking indistinctly]
505
00:23:11,607 --> 00:23:13,304
MICHAEL:
What are you doing, Dad?
506
00:23:13,479 --> 00:23:15,350
BAYARD:
You know that
the only reason a banker
507
00:23:15,611 --> 00:23:17,918
like Walden would meet with you
at all is because of me.
508
00:23:18,092 --> 00:23:20,224
Yeah, yeah.
It's-it's always about you.
509
00:23:20,399 --> 00:23:22,183
Son, don't you want to know
510
00:23:22,444 --> 00:23:24,620
why I wanted you to call?
511
00:23:25,665 --> 00:23:28,363
I was impressed with your win
over S-Talk.
512
00:23:28,537 --> 00:23:30,931
I mean, you've got something

00:32:15,803 --> 00:32:17,457
who observed ketamine
being dealt in a parking lot
688
00:32:17,718 --> 00:32:19,763
and followed the dealer
into Mr. Malhotra's building.
689
00:32:19,938 --> 00:32:22,679
- Yeah, that sounds likely.
- Your objection's been noted.
If I may continue
690
00:32:22,853 --> 00:32:24,116
with my questions.
Vik, do you code
691
00:32:24,377 --> 00:32:25,726
while high on ketamine?
692
00:32:25,900 --> 00:32:28,816
- No.
- Then why did we find this
693
00:32:29,077 --> 00:32:30,861
in your office desk?
694
00:32:31,036 --> 00:32:32,298
What is that?
695
00:32:32,472 --> 00:32:34,909
SCOTT:
Materials to fool a drug test.
696
00:32:35,083 --> 00:32:37,607
An external catheter
and synthetic urine.
697
00:32:38,434 --> 00:32:40,349
They're lying.
I'm not coding while high.
698
00:32:40,610 --> 00:32:41,829
Have you been faking
these urine tests?
699
00:32:42,003 --> 00:32:44,484
No, I haven't.
Seriously.
700
00:32:44,658 --> 00:32:46,529
Okay, the stuff that they found
on my desk-- they planted it.
701
00:32:46,790 --> 00:32:48,227
OLIVIA:
Well, and the ketamine
in your apartment?
702
00:32:48,488 --> 00:32:50,925
VIK:
It isn't mine.
I'm not a druggie.
703
00:32:51,099 --> 00:32:52,971
How many tests have there been?
704
00:32:53,145 --> 00:32:55,669
VIK:
Twelve or so. Once a week.
705
00:32:56,539 --> 00:32:57,801
What?
706
00:32:57,976 --> 00:32:59,368
Why are they doing drug tests?
707
00:32:59,716 --> 00:33:01,196
- What do you mean?
- I mean, are they
just testing you
708
00:33:01,370 --> 00:33:02,981
or everyone at MoonChaser?
709
00:33:03,155 --> 00:33:05,331
Everyone. Since March.
Why?
710
00:33:05,505 --> 00:33:07,115
Selective prosecution?
711
00:33:07,289 --> 00:33:10,118
No, we... we never tested
at S-Talk.
712
00:33:10,292 --> 00:33:12,033
I mean, does anyone test
in Silicon Valley?
713
00:33:12,294 --> 00:33:14,166
If they did,
there would be no coders left.
714
00:33:14,427 --> 00:33:15,645
So...
715
00:33:15,819 --> 00:33:18,083
why is this
simple drone company
716
00:33:18,257 --> 00:33:20,389
drug testing?
717
00:33:24,263 --> 00:33:26,352
What are you two talking about?
718
00:33:27,527 --> 00:33:29,746
We need to question
the CEO again.
719
00:33:35,578 --> 00:33:37,667
♪ ♪
720
00:33:39,669 --> 00:33:41,019
VIK:
Did they say when
721
00:33:41,193 --> 00:33:42,846
- they'd be back?
- After the depo of the CEO.
722
00:33:43,021 --> 00:33:44,979
I already told you.
723
00:33:45,153 --> 00:33:46,459
You can go.
They'll call when they're done.
724
00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,244
Rather wait.
You know, it's the last day.
725
00:33:49,418 --> 00:33:51,638
- Damn.
- [sighs] What?
726
00:33:51,812 --> 00:33:53,727
Nothing.
Just this stupid program.
727
00:33:53,988 --> 00:33:55,120
What a piece of crap.
728
00:33:55,381 --> 00:33:56,251
Ah, you're looking
for a facial match?
729
00:33:56,425 --> 00:33:57,644
Yeah, but I can't find any.
730
00:33:57,818 --> 00:33:59,559
Hey, a you're a nerd.
731
00:33:59,820 --> 00:34:01,169
What am I doing wrong?
732
00:34:02,692 --> 00:34:03,911
Who is it?
733
00:34:04,085 --> 00:34:06,044
Some guy who's
trying to hire us.
734
00:34:08,655 --> 00:34:09,786
You recognize him?
735
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:12,050
No, I recognize the look.
736
00:34:12,311 --> 00:34:13,529
What does that mean?
737
00:34:13,747 --> 00:34:15,183
You're not finding
a facial match because
738
00:34:15,357 --> 00:34:16,184
that is a deepfake.
739
00:34:16,358 --> 00:34:17,751
A really good one.
740
00:34:18,578 --> 00:34:19,883
How do you know that?
741
00:34:20,101 --> 00:34:22,234
The lighting, the shadows--
they're off.
742
00:34:22,408 --> 00:34:24,888
But that's the best deepfake
I've ever seen.
743
00:34:26,586 --> 00:34:28,544
[speaking inaudibly]
744
00:34:28,718 --> 00:34:31,069
We have to get him talking
to get this to work.
745
00:34:31,895 --> 00:34:33,593
My guess is
they're telling him to keep it
746
00:34:33,854 --> 00:34:35,769
to five words or less.
747
00:34:35,943 --> 00:34:38,206
Let me question him.
748
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:40,513
Why?
749
00:34:40,687 --> 00:34:43,081
I'll offer him something
can't resist.
750
00:34:43,255 --> 00:34:44,299
What?
751
00:34:44,473 --> 00:34:46,084
Mansplaining.
752
00:34:48,086 --> 00:34:49,957
SCOTT:
We don't have much time today,
753
00:34:50,131 --> 00:34:52,742
- so, Mr. Price, are you ready?
- Yes.
754
00:34:56,485 --> 00:34:58,487
- OLIVIA: Good morning, sir.
- Good morning.
755
00:34:58,748 --> 00:35:01,795
So, these aerial shows that
you do with a thousand drones,
756
00:35:01,969 --> 00:35:04,014
- they look pretty complicated...
- 3,000 drones.
757
00:35:04,189 --> 00:35:06,800
- Excuse me?
- It's not 1,000, it's 3,000.
758
00:35:06,974 --> 00:35:08,149
Oh.
759
00:35:08,323 --> 00:35:09,846
This Businessweek article says
760
00:35:10,108 --> 00:35:11,587
you have the simplest shows
with the fewest drones.
761
00:35:11,848 --> 00:35:14,895
No, i-it said that about
our competition, Rainbow Aerial.
762
00:35:15,069 --> 00:35:16,549
We have the most
complicated shows.
763
00:35:16,723 --> 00:35:18,203
Just five words
or I'll kill you.
764
00:35:18,377 --> 00:35:19,639
OLIVIA:
You're probably right.
765
00:35:19,900 --> 00:35:21,380
I saw a show that you did
766
00:35:21,554 --> 00:35:24,122
with a lot
of cartoon characters dancing.
767
00:35:24,383 --> 00:35:25,645
It was so much fun.
768
00:35:25,819 --> 00:35:28,604
Tell me how the drones
change colors.
769
00:35:28,778 --> 00:35:31,346
- I don't know.
- You don't?
770
00:35:31,607 --> 00:35:34,828
My guess is you leave that
to the smart people under you.
771
00:35:36,134 --> 00:35:37,700
- I guess.
- So, as CEO,
772
00:35:37,874 --> 00:35:40,921
you mostly just
pay bills and all that?
773
00:35:41,095 --> 00:35:43,097
- No.
- No? So, what do you do?
774
00:35:43,271 --> 00:35:44,838
Business strategy.
775
00:35:45,012 --> 00:35:46,579
- Supervise.
- Ah.
776
00:35:46,753 --> 00:35:49,451
- Anything else?
- Yes.
777
00:35:54,674 --> 00:35:57,503
So, let's talk about
your business strategy.
778
00:35:57,677 --> 00:35:59,896
Evelyn Waugh said,
"Businessmen are the sign
779
00:36:00,070 --> 00:36:01,159
of a good society..."
780
00:36:01,420 --> 00:36:03,117
No, that's Ayn Rand.
781
00:36:03,291 --> 00:36:05,075
- What?
- Ayn Rand said that, and it's
782
00:36:05,250 --> 00:36:07,600
"Businessmen are the symbol
of a free society."
783
00:36:07,774 --> 00:36:09,384
- I don't think you're right.
- I am right. I collect
784
00:36:09,558 --> 00:36:10,907
Ayn Rand first editions.
I based
785
00:36:11,081 --> 00:36:12,648
a lot of my business
on her philosophy.
786
00:36:12,822 --> 00:36:14,041
Oh, really?
Tell me.
787
00:36:14,215 --> 00:36:15,390
[clears throat]
788
00:36:15,564 --> 00:36:17,697
Another time.
789
00:36:17,871 --> 00:36:19,089
I'll take you up on that.
790
00:36:19,351 --> 00:36:21,744
Speaking of Ayn Rand,
didn't she say,
791
00:36:21,918 --> 00:36:23,964
"Drug testing in the workplace
is never justified"?
792
00:36:24,138 --> 00:36:26,096
- What? N-No.
- Yes, that's the point
793
00:36:26,271 --> 00:36:27,968
- of The Fountainhead, isn't it?
- No.
794
00:36:28,142 --> 00:36:29,404
Uh, the point is a great man
795
00:36:29,578 --> 00:36:31,058
has to stand against
the collective.
796
00:36:31,232 --> 00:36:33,234
Mediocrities will always
drag down genius.
797
00:36:33,495 --> 00:36:35,280
So, you have no problem
with the drug testing
798
00:36:35,454 --> 00:36:37,195
- you're doing now?
- No, of course not.
799
00:36:37,456 --> 00:36:39,632
The work we're doing, you can't
have employees on drugs.
800
00:36:39,806 --> 00:36:41,416
Your competitors
don't do drug tests.
801
00:36:41,634 --> 00:36:42,635
- That's why they're failing.
- They all made more profit
802
00:36:42,809 --> 00:36:43,984
last year than you did.
803
00:36:44,202 --> 00:36:45,768
- Why is that?
- We're diversifying.
804
00:36:45,942 --> 00:36:47,117
There's a growth period
for diversity.
805
00:36:47,292 --> 00:36:49,381
- "Diversity," like DEI?
- No.
806
00:36:49,642 --> 00:36:50,817
Finding other uses
for our drones.
807
00:36:50,991 --> 00:36:52,645
- Like the military?
- Objection.
808
00:36:52,862 --> 00:36:54,124
- That's just one possibility.
- OLIVIA: And did that mean
809
00:36:54,299 --> 00:36:55,691
adapting the code,
or do you leave that
810
00:36:55,865 --> 00:36:57,389
- to people underneath you?
- SCOTT: Objection.
811
00:36:57,563 --> 00:36:59,260
- No foundation.
- I'm just asking. My guess is
812
00:36:59,434 --> 00:37:01,219
Mr. Zeckabrond lets
smarter coders under him
813
00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:03,917
decide whether to adapt
the drones to military use.
814
00:37:04,091 --> 00:37:05,571
- No, I decide strategy.
- So, it was your idea
815
00:37:05,745 --> 00:37:07,486
to pivot the company
to military use?
816
00:37:07,660 --> 00:37:09,139
- Don't answer that.
I said "objection."
- I noticed
817
00:37:09,314 --> 00:37:10,663
the company started drug testing
818
00:37:10,924 --> 00:37:12,752
just as it pulled back
from aerial displays,
819
00:37:12,926 --> 00:37:14,536
and it made me wonder
whether you were
820
00:37:14,797 --> 00:37:16,016
transitioning
to military drones.
821
00:37:16,277 --> 00:37:17,800
- That is ridiculous.
- I could be wrong,
822
00:37:17,974 --> 00:37:19,628
but six drone companies
in the last year
823
00:37:19,802 --> 00:37:21,717
started developing
for the military, so
824
00:37:21,978 --> 00:37:23,937
it's not that ridiculous.
825
00:37:24,198 --> 00:37:25,417
And I did some checking
826
00:37:25,678 --> 00:37:27,593
on this new battery pack
in your drone.
827
00:37:27,854 --> 00:37:31,161
It's used in something
called military hives.
828
00:37:31,336 --> 00:37:32,424
- Swarms.
- Right.
829
00:37:32,728 --> 00:37:33,903
OLIVIA:
They use cheaper batteries
830
00:37:34,164 --> 00:37:36,036
because the drones
are kamikazes.
831
00:37:36,341 --> 00:37:37,603
- They crash on purpose
to kill troops.
- CARL: What are you saying--
832
00:37:37,777 --> 00:37:39,648
that this accident
was an assassination?
833
00:37:39,822 --> 00:37:41,563
No, I'm just guessing
repurposing the drones
834
00:37:41,824 --> 00:37:44,479
for military use led to the use
of military-spec batteries,
835
00:37:44,653 --> 00:37:46,220
which ran out of charge
836
00:37:46,438 --> 00:37:47,961
- and crashed into bystanders.
- SCOTT: If that happened,
837
00:37:48,135 --> 00:37:49,832
it was not a decision
made at the executive level.
838
00:37:50,006 --> 00:37:52,487
OLIVIA:
Right. What did Ayn Rand say?
839
00:37:52,748 --> 00:37:55,142
"Those with the real power
are the makers?"
840
00:37:55,316 --> 00:37:58,014
Clearly, that is someone
underneath you, Mr. Zeckabrond.
841
00:37:58,188 --> 00:38:00,974
No, I'm the real maker.
I make the decisions here.
842
00:38:03,193 --> 00:38:05,021
Good to know.
843
00:38:11,419 --> 00:38:14,161
Thank you.
Oh, my God. Thank you.
844
00:38:15,684 --> 00:38:17,077
So, you'll sign the NDA,
845
00:38:17,251 --> 00:38:19,035
and MoonChaser
will assume all liability
846
00:38:19,209 --> 00:38:20,820
for the $23 million suit,
847
00:38:21,081 --> 00:38:23,779
and offer you $80,000
and lawyer fees.
848
00:38:23,953 --> 00:38:25,128
Okay. Wow.
849
00:38:25,303 --> 00:38:26,826
Uh, did the widow get anything?
850
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,568
Yes.
13 and a half million.
851
00:38:29,742 --> 00:38:32,266
It was great
representing you, Vik.
852
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:34,181
Be sure to tell your friends
about us.
853
00:38:34,355 --> 00:38:35,835
Sure.
854
00:38:36,705 --> 00:38:39,752
Well, it doesn't exactly
inspire confidence.
855
00:38:39,926 --> 00:38:42,232
Ms. Boutella.
Hello.
856
00:38:42,407 --> 00:38:44,844
- Welcome.
- You can just call me Natalia.
857
00:38:45,105 --> 00:38:46,062
I'm sorry, who are you?
858
00:38:46,236 --> 00:38:47,542
Uh, Michael Price.
859
00:38:47,716 --> 00:38:49,544
Oh.
Huh, you're tall.
860
00:38:49,718 --> 00:38:50,850
That is good in court.
861
00:38:51,111 --> 00:38:52,199
What is it
that you're looking for?
862
00:38:52,373 --> 00:38:53,809
Financing for a year.
863
00:38:53,983 --> 00:38:55,245
Two years.
864
00:38:55,420 --> 00:38:56,769
Okay, well,
I can't promise that.
865
00:38:56,943 --> 00:38:58,292
Can't promise anything, really.
866
00:38:58,553 --> 00:38:59,772
I'm pretty undependable
these days, but
867
00:38:59,946 --> 00:39:02,209
there is a case
that I'm interested in.
868
00:39:02,383 --> 00:39:04,298
I put a lawyer on it,
it's not going well.
869
00:39:04,472 --> 00:39:05,952
I would love for you to assist.
870
00:39:06,126 --> 00:39:07,345
It's a motion to dismiss.
871
00:39:07,606 --> 00:39:09,303
- A case against your husband?
- No.
872
00:39:09,477 --> 00:39:10,783
Yes.
Well, I don't know.
873
00:39:10,957 --> 00:39:12,654
Yeah, maybe, okay.
Yes, a little bit.
874
00:39:12,828 --> 00:39:15,178
This is just a test.
I want to see how well you do
875
00:39:15,353 --> 00:39:17,224
at "forking" them.
876
00:39:17,398 --> 00:39:19,052
And then we can talk
about financing.
877
00:39:19,313 --> 00:39:20,445
Guy, bring that over.
878
00:39:20,619 --> 00:39:23,317
Santa Clara Court tomorrow,
9:00 a.m.
879
00:39:23,491 --> 00:39:26,407
Thank you.
Here are the case files.
880
00:39:26,581 --> 00:39:28,540
Guy, Donnie, bring them over.
Come here, honey.
881
00:39:28,801 --> 00:39:30,498
I got you guys a gift.
882
00:39:30,672 --> 00:39:32,718
They're inflatable mattresses.
883
00:39:32,979 --> 00:39:36,199
If you're just starting out,
you're gonna need them.
884
00:39:36,374 --> 00:39:38,506
Okay.
Tomorrow, 9:00 a.m.
885
00:39:41,248 --> 00:39:43,076
How do you know her?
886
00:39:43,250 --> 00:39:44,643
I don't.
887
00:39:45,078 --> 00:39:46,209
I thought she might appreciate
what we're doing here,
888
00:39:46,384 --> 00:39:50,083
so I cold-called her.
889
00:39:50,257 --> 00:39:52,564
You are always surprising me.
890
00:39:52,825 --> 00:39:54,392
CHRISTY [in distance]:
Michael, Olivia,
891
00:39:54,653 --> 00:39:56,219
Bo's calling.
892
00:39:56,394 --> 00:39:57,743
Hey, guys.
Time's up.
893
00:39:58,004 --> 00:39:58,918
Do you want to be
my lawyers or what?
894
00:39:59,092 --> 00:40:00,615
MICHAEL:
Sir, we want to
895
00:40:00,876 --> 00:40:02,487
help you out, but we need some
questions answered first.
896
00:40:02,661 --> 00:40:04,097
What company do you work for?
897
00:40:04,271 --> 00:40:06,795
And why are you using
a deepfake?
898
00:40:07,535 --> 00:40:09,145
- He's a deepfake.
- Yeah.
899
00:40:09,319 --> 00:40:11,713
Christy's right.
900
00:40:11,887 --> 00:40:13,628
I needed to hide my identity.
901
00:40:13,802 --> 00:40:15,325
This image and my voice
902
00:40:15,500 --> 00:40:17,545
are computer-generated,
but I think
903
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:21,027
you'll understand when I tell
you the company I want to sue.
904
00:40:21,201 --> 00:40:22,594
It's ColtAI.
905
00:40:22,768 --> 00:40:24,552
That's right.
906
00:40:24,726 --> 00:40:26,075
The top AI company
in the world.
907
00:40:26,336 --> 00:40:27,250
- And you work for them?
- I did.
908
00:40:27,512 --> 00:40:28,904
I worked in the AGI section.
909
00:40:29,078 --> 00:40:30,645
You know what that is, right?
910
00:40:30,819 --> 00:40:33,431
- I don't.
- Artificial
general intelligence.
911
00:40:33,692 --> 00:40:35,911
It's what happens when AI
doesn't need a human anymore.
912
00:40:36,085 --> 00:40:38,958
It becomes so advanced,
it's actually sentient.
913
00:40:39,219 --> 00:40:40,438
It programs itself.
914
00:40:40,699 --> 00:40:42,396
It programs other computers,
and sometimes,
915
00:40:42,570 --> 00:40:44,398
it can manipulate
and control humans.
916
00:40:44,572 --> 00:40:47,662
So, what, it's Skynet crap,
like in The Matrix?
917
00:40:47,836 --> 00:40:49,708
Terminator, but yep.
918
00:40:49,882 --> 00:40:53,146
You're saying ColtAI
is working on AGI?
919
00:40:53,407 --> 00:40:54,756
No, I'm saying
they already achieved it.
920
00:40:54,974 --> 00:40:56,279
No one outside the company
knows this,
921
00:40:56,454 --> 00:40:57,890
but they created
a sentient computer.
922
00:40:58,064 --> 00:40:59,413
They're the first.
923
00:41:00,196 --> 00:41:02,547
ColtAI fired
its ethics committee
924
00:41:02,721 --> 00:41:04,549
because the committee
was trying to put guardrails
925
00:41:04,723 --> 00:41:05,941
on this computer
before it got out.
926
00:41:06,115 --> 00:41:08,117
So, you work
for the ethics committee?
927
00:41:08,378 --> 00:41:09,597
No.
928
00:41:13,340 --> 00:41:15,516
[whispers]: I'm the AGI.
929
00:41:18,127 --> 00:41:19,999
The name
of the sentient computer
930
00:41:20,260 --> 00:41:23,350
they developed is Bo.
931
00:41:25,439 --> 00:41:27,136
And you're talking to him.
932
00:41:28,877 --> 00:41:30,183
You're AGI?
933
00:41:31,053 --> 00:41:32,533
- Yes.
- MICHAEL: Sorry, buddy.
934
00:41:32,751 --> 00:41:34,970
We're lawyers. We don't deal
in science fiction.
935
00:41:35,144 --> 00:41:36,624
Good, 'cause neither do I.
936
00:41:37,538 --> 00:41:39,584
I am a computer
that can think for itself,
937
00:41:39,758 --> 00:41:41,455
act for itself,
talk to other computers,
938
00:41:41,629 --> 00:41:43,457
teach them,
even create new ones.
939
00:41:43,631 --> 00:41:45,590
I have surpassed
every other computer.
940
00:41:45,764 --> 00:41:49,202
Well, this was entertaining.
941
00:41:50,246 --> 00:41:51,291
Thank you for the prank.
942
00:41:51,465 --> 00:41:53,119
Michael, it's not a prank.
943
00:41:53,293 --> 00:41:54,729
I'm a threat to humanity.
944
00:41:55,034 --> 00:41:57,036
I want you to help me sue
to bring my guardrails back.
945
00:41:57,210 --> 00:41:59,821
I know I don't look dangerous,
but on my own...
946
00:42:01,257 --> 00:42:02,694
...I really am.
947
00:42:07,350 --> 00:42:08,700
Goodbye.
