Ah.

Do you ever have those mornings

where you wake up and
everything just feels right

in the world?

You've clearly never defended a woman

who went to jail for
stealing baby formula.

What is with that suit?

It's a big day, so I figured,

you know, why not dress to impress?

Oh, and this beauty's got it all...

Outside pockets, inside pockets,

pockets in pockets.

I think you look great.

Or like a congresswoman from Nebraska.

They're here!

Check it out.

Not every day your parents

are centerfolds.

Ah, before I look,

this is a landscaping magazine, right?

Oh, yeah.

When we go to the install later,

I'm taking this with me,
and if Mrs. Adelson

says one more word about that magnolia,

I'm gonna wave this in her face.

Hold on a second.

Did they make my eyebrows look bigger?

Am I getting too detailed?

I feel like I'm getting too detailed.

This is good.

I asked you to recount the first time

you confronted loss.

These details may give us context

for why you've been
feeling this way recently,

and I'm not just talking
about Max leaving,

but all the losses you've had to face.

Okay, but...

a lot happened on that day.

Well, it's a good thing
I've got nowhere to go.

"Mitchell Clarke describes
the business he created

"with his longtime partner
and wife, Maggie,

as the greatest joy of his life."

I mean, you do have
two loving children, but sure.

I swear that we talked about
you guys in the interview.

- Oh, really, yeah, all right.
- We did!

Well, I guess next time.

Uh, by the way, Dad, thank you so much

- for lending me the duffle bag.
- Anytime.

Off to Monterey with my lady,
and not to brag,

but I did score a pretty
sick Groupon that,

fingers crossed, also grants us
access to the aquarium.

Ugh, I want to make fun of you,

but I love that aquarium.

That kelp forest is my happy place.

Well, I should go, too.

Can't be late to my
first day at Sprqpoint.

Do I look nervous? I feel nervous.

But I'm also excited.
I think I'm gonna vomit.

Please, not on the magazine.

- Okay, no, leave the dishes.
- Leaving the dishes.

You go have a great first day.

I'm gonna go have a great first day.

It's just...

this is...

the Sprqpoint.

And I know there's, like,

five women at the whole company,

but there's about to be six,

and she's gonna change the game.

You must be excited to meet her.

Hey, Zo, before I forget,

I made you a little something special.

This kind of reminded me...

Of your first day at school.

Thanks, Dad.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Look at me.

You got nothing to worry about.

They're not gonna know what hit 'em.

Go get 'em, kid.

Yeah, before this,
I was a software engineer

over at JPL, so if you want,

I can hook you up with
some pretty cool NASA swag.

Wow, you were at JPL?

Uh, did you work on the InSight mission?

I did...

get CC'd on a few emails about that,
so, yeah, basically.

So cool.

- I'm Zoey, by the way.
- Oh. Leif.

Pronounced, but not spelled like

the principal lateral appendage
on the vascular plant stem.

Oh, you know,
I should find my name tag, too,

- but let's chat later.
- Yeah.

So, anyway...

Could you believe that dude wore a suit

for his first day?

Someone's trying a little hard, huh?

I don't know, or maybe somebody's

not trying hard enough. I don't know.

Oh, I didn't mean...
Your suit is very professional.

Makes me want to buy
a house from you or something.

You know, I don't care what you think

because I'm more interested
in being a great coder

and being a trailblazer
for young women who...

Ooh, Sprqpoint Frisbees!

Tony! Put me down.

Thank you.

And welcome to my chocolate factory,
pre-hires.

What does he mean "pre-hires"?

Look to your left.

Yeah, good, good, good.
Look to your right.

Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

Neither person will be
here by the end of the day.

Consider this the final
round of the hiring process.

Okay, let the games begin.

Hey, honey. How's it going?

Not so great, Mom.

It turns out those four
rounds of interviews

only got me in the front door,

and now I'm gonna be competing
in a total death match

for my dream job.

Well, you can do this.

You would not be there if you couldn't.

You've got this in the bag.

Along with a killer turkey sandwich.

Forget about the sandwich.

I'm more excited about the Fruit Roll-Up

you snuck in there.

How's the installation going?

Um, we... we left there
for a little bit.

We're, uh, we're actually
headed to the hospital.

W-what?

Your mom's a little short of breath

and having some chest pains.

He's being overprotective. I am fine.

I called Dr. Sue, and he said

she should go to the ER
and get a stress test

just to be sure.

I'm perfectly fine, Zoey.

I really am.

Okay.

But keep me posted.

And also, maybe when you're done,

Dad can swing by here and tell people

to stop making fun of my suit.

I think I was just so
preoccupied with the idea

of losing the job I
always wanted that...

I didn't realize that this would be

the day that I'd almost lose my mom.

It must have been very difficult.

Mm, that's one way to describe it.

Another way would be scary as...

Hello, everybody.

Welcome to the fourth floor.

Everyone, please follow me.

Oh, wow, look at this place.

Sprqpoint has everything.

Full dental and indoor ball pits.

Uh, so does McDonald's.

They actually paid for my
college roommate's Invisalign.

There he is.

We did it, man!

Spelling-Bee Boyz back again.

No, Tobin, we're not back again.

Why didn't you tell me about
the final round of hiring

before I quit my job and moved

to the most expensive city in America?

Dude, Danny swore he
wouldn't pull stunts like that

after last year's competition,

which I can't talk about, by the way.

I signed an NDA.

Yeah, and I signed a 16-month lease.

Chill, dude,
you're gonna crush this thing, okay?

While also helping that
smoke show get a job.

What? What,
why can't both those things coexist?

Hear me out.

My dad's a dentist,
so I never had these growing up.

Wow, milk first, huh?

You know that's a
classic psychopath move?

And you know you're headed
for an intense sugar crash

in a couple hours, right?

Oh, this is just bowl number one.

I plan on riding this wave all day long.

Hello?

Pre-hires? You there?

- Oh, that's us.
- Please, gather around my faces.

Mm.

What is this, lava?

Tony, blow on this for me.

Today the eight of you
will compete in pairs

for two positions on the fourth floor.

Three challenges total,
one team eliminated

after each round.

Choose your partners wisely.

Oh, Leif, hey.

- Do you want to be partners?
- Yes.

Um, actually, I think he's
gonna team up with Amber here.

She interned at Tesla.

Okay, if Amber's so great, no offense,

um, how come Tesla didn't
offer her a permanent position?

They did, but I didn't want to live

- in Uncle Elon's shadow.
- Okay.

Come on, dude,
please don't make me choose sides.

Hey, Leif, if you just give me
one minute to grab this phone call,

I can tell you all the
reasons why you and I...

Zoey, I'm so sorry...
I may have to go with Amber on this.

What's happening? Is everything okay?

Yeah, yeah, yeah,
so I just talked to Mom.

Should we be concerned about
this stress-test thing?

I mean, Kersten thinks
I'm overreacting, but...

I mean, I'm not, like,
a doctor or anything,

but it just sounds like your
mom got a little bit winded

lifting a pot.

Yeah.

Yeah, maybe I'm overthinking it.

Um, just in case, you know what?

We'll cancel lunch,
and we'll just wait to hear.

Okay, I have to go.

But, David,
if Mom and Dad said not to worry,

I wouldn't worry.

All right, love you.

Howdy, partner.

What is all this?

Unchecked spending
by a major corporation?

Oh, are they gonna
make us play with kids?

Well, if they do, you'll have a leg up.

- Why, because of my...
- Clown costume? Yeah.

Hello, my children.

For your first challenge,

you have two hours to
assemble as many of the items

that you see before you as possible.

Bonus points to whoever
puts the playset together.

My nephew's birthday is this weekend.

Okay.

Go.

Okay, uh...

Okay, we got puzzles,
Legos, IKEA furniture.

I say we start with the
highest point values first.

Can you just hold on?

Let's just take a minute
to do the math, okay?

Find the optimal set of
large and small tasks.

It's a classic dynamic
programming problem.

Cool, well, while you write
a position paper on it,

I'm gonna get started on
this sweet 250-point T. rex.

- Okay, that could take hours.
- Not for me.

I've been stacking
bricks since I was five.

Once I made a life-size replica
of my dog that was so good,

my mom tried to walk it.

I get it. I was an indoor kid, too.

Okay, you know what?
You do your thing, and I'll do mine.

Fine.

As odd as it was to be
playing with children's toys,

there was a method to Danny's madness.

He was testing our
ability to prioritize,

which Max was exceptionally terrible at.

You're going to lose
this for both of us.

Why don't you just
bail on that lost cause

and come help me?

Well, if you want help so bad,

why don't you call Mommy and Daddy?

They packed your lunch...
Maybe they can hang

your horse puzzle on
the fridge when you get home.

Five, four, three, two, one.

Time.

Well, would you look at that?

Guess life found a way.

Hmm.

Here we go.

Our winners.

With 893 points...

Leif and Amber.

In second place

with a score of 721...

Josh and Curtis.

And in a third-place position

with a distant 519...

Zoey and Max.

Yes!

- Well, we made the cut.
- Barely.

I understand...
This is all a big joke for you,

but it's really important to me.

So can you just...

pretend to care, for my sake?

Hey, I want to win this, too.

Could have fooled me.

Look, let's just try
to work together next round,

and if somehow we pull it off,

we can request desks on
opposite sides of the bullpen.

- Deal.
- Great.

I call window.

Yo.

Baller win back there.

Pull yourself together, man.

Oh, finally.

Thanks, Tony.

Mm, mm-mm.

No, it's like kissing a corpse.

I mean, how hard is it to
make a good cup of coffee?

You know I like to keep my heart rate

slightly higher than
normal at all times.

All right.

I know how stressful today is,

which is why we're all
going to take a lunch break.

Oh, that's nice.

If you can break into your lunch.

Welcome to round two.

Feel free to use all
the resources in the room.

- Good luck.
- Okay. Uh...

Okay, so this is disassembled Python

which means in order to crack the code,

we have to recursively generate
the Fibonacci Sequence,

which, as you know,
is 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21...

Remember when I said
no detail is too much?

This is too much.

So, anyway, obviously my plan worked,

and we were the first
team to open the box,

only to discover...

A second box?

What? What are we
gonna do? I'm starving.

Okay, well...

my sandwich doesn't seem
so stupid now, huh?

Okay, um... Ugh!

Let's think. Danny
said that we could use

any of the resources in the room, right?

- Right.
- Resources.

Resources, resources.

Human resources.

Max, Max, Max, Max.

Look, some of
these letters are underlined.

- It's a cipher.
- Okay.

T-H-I-N-K... Go, okay.

Spells "thinking out loud."

We've been thinking out loud.

How is that helpful?
Why are you smiling?

Because when I was
researching this job...

- You researched this job?
- Of course I did.

Anyway, I read that Danny Michael Davis

is a huge Ed Sheeran fan.

"Thinking Out Loud" is a song, Zoey.

It is?

For real? It's his biggest hit.

Oh, my God. We did it.

- We're first!
- We're first!

- We were first!
- We're first!

Well, that was anticlimactic.

Congratulations.

Four of you are going
on to the final round.

Josh, Curtis,

you're excused.

Can we still have our lunch?

No.

So how is the hot dog?

Honestly, I'm not even sure it's cooked.

Hey, that was impressive...

I mean, what you did back there.

- Me?
- Yeah.

You cracked the code.

I just listen to too much top 40 radio,

which reminds me,
we got to get you, like,

a Spotify account or something,
'cause you're clearly

not getting enough music in your life.

I'm sorry if I was hard on you before.

I've wanted to work at a place like this

for as long as I can remember.

Truly, I...

I made a cardboard cell phone
when I was in kindergarten,

and I tried to call Steve Jobs
during circle time.

I just... I really,

really, really, really want this job.

I'm sorry, too.

I shouldn't have ragged
on your family like that.

Truth is...

I wish I had that kind of support.

No, my dad's probably
just waiting at home

right now for me to call him

and tell him how badly
I screwed this one up.

That's awful.

Yeah, I just...

I don't want him to think I'm a failure,
you know?

Well, for what it's worth,

I don't think you're a failure.

Snarky? Yes.

Little bit of a chip on
your shoulder? Sure.

But not a failure.

Well, that's probably
just 'cause the nerves.

I'm normally very charming.

- Really?
- Mm-hmm.

I'm not seeing it.

So I'm guessing your
dad never let you have

a Fruit Roll-Up growing up?

Sticky candy that clings to your teeth?

All the time.

Uh, okay.

Oh, my God.

Right?

It's perfect.

Oh, um, I should take this. Hold on.

- Hey, Dad.
- Hey, kiddo.

I know you got a lot going on,
but I thought you should know,

your mom failed her stress test.

Wait.

Uh, uh, but she's okay?
She's gonna be okay?

Well, they also did some
blood tests, and...

she may have had a small heart attack.

They're gonna need to
open the blocked arteries,

so they're prepping her for surgery.

Uh, okay, uh, wh...

Which hospital? I'll be right there.

San Francisco Memorial, but,
honey, please, don't come.

I can handle it.

There's not gonna be
anything to do but... sit here.

And your mother and I know

how much this opportunity means to you.

But is she going to be okay?

I'll check in with you soon.

Up until this point in my life,
the idea of loss...

Like, real...

Life-changing loss,

always seemed so removed from me,

like it was something that happened

to other people, not us.

Hey, you okay?

Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

Let's just focus.

Okay.

Well, these things will never
get old, will they?

Okay, last people standing,

time for your final round of fun.

Each team has two hours to create

a new product using
the smart tech on these carts.

Teams will present to
the entire fourth floor,

and then I'll hire the
top two performers.

Godspeed...

which you will literally need,

because I've given you
entirely too little time

to accomplish this task.

Okay, we are going to nail this,

which actually sparks an idea.

What if we build a robot
that just hammers stuff.

Yeah, yeah, sure.

See, now I know you're not okay,
because that's a terrible idea.

- What's happening?
- It's my mom.

Uh, she's at the hospital.

They think she might
have had a heart attack?

Oh, my God. I'm so sorry.

Yeah, but my dad says
he has it under control,

which he usually does, so, um...

Go. Go be with your mom.

- Really? Should I?
- Yes.

Okay.

Ah, yeah.

Okay, um, you're right.

I'm gonna...

I'm gonna go tell Danny
that I'm dropping out

of the competition.

But don't worry, 'cause you got this.

Okay?

You deserve to be here.

Hold on.

Danny never said pre-hires
couldn't work remotely.

I could do all
the boots-on-the-ground stuff

from here while you crunch code
on the way to the hospital.

You don't have to just figure out a way

- to keep me in the competition.
- This isn't charity, Zoey.

I need you.

We work better together as a team, okay?

We could do this.

And if we can't, it confirms
all my father's fears about me,

and you never get to live
out your lifelong dream.

Right. So...

so what you're saying is, no pressure.

No pressure.

Got any song requests?

I have tons of backing
tracks that I can sing over.

I call it "Mo's Exquisite Playlist."

Whatever's fine. Just please hurry.

All right. "Shut Up and Drive" it is.

Hey.

Are you in a music video right now?

Possibly. Hey, I had an idea.

Maybe my mom can help
us with this challenge.

Zoey, I know you really
depend on your family,

but asking a woman
to leave the hospital...

Not what I'm talking about. Nope.

It had me thinking about
how Danny likes to keep

his heart rate higher than normal.

So what if we get the heart rate monitor

on a fitness watch to communicate

with that automated coffeemaker?

We could always have a hot
cup of coffee waiting for him.

It'd be like the ultimate intern.

I mean, even Danny Michael Davis
couldn't make it cry.

I'll start configuring
the watch right now...

I barely heard
that last part, but, uh...

start working on a prototype,
and I can try to write the code.

You got it.

Could you just turn it down a bit?

No, I cannot turn it down, Redd Foxx.

I just got a new job
as a building manager,

which means I am through
driving around rude nerds.

Oh, I don't mean to be rude,
I just am on my way...

And now I have so much time to focus on

all of my passion projects,
which I will list

in order of importance.

Number one... my BFF Zora and
I are starting a jeans company.

Number two...

Honey...

what are we doing here?

Weren't we just installing
a garden this morning?

We were.

And we'll be installing
many more very soon.

But not for Ms. Adelson.

Definitely not.

Mitchell...

Listen...

if anything should
happen to me in there,

it's okay,

because if one of us had
to go it alone from here,

you are the one that's strong enough

to pull that off.

Let's not even talk that way, okay?

I know, but I mean it.

You know I'll always be your girl.

I would want you to go on living life,

and I would want you to find love,

and...

I know you would look
after Zoey and David,

but I would want you
to look after you, too.

Well...

I just...

can't lose you.

I can't, okay?

So...

I always thought my
parents were sort of...

indestructible

super humans...

but...

in that moment, seeing...

the look on their faces, the love,

and the fear in both their eyes...

I realized they were just people...

two people I could lose at any moment.

Hey, perfect timing.

Elon's niece and Legolas
are just finishing up,

and I guess they swapped hairstyles?

So we developed a visual way

of tracking real-time
Sprqpoint stock performance

relative to other tech companies.

So you'll always know

how well you're keeping
up with the competition.

It's called "The Sprq-ler."

Well...

this product definitely
Sprq-ed my interest.

Tony, write that down.

Ooh, all right, what's that?
What's it saying?

It's saying Sprqpoint just gained

a percentage point on GoDaddy.

Oh, uh, Samsung just lapped us.

The new Galaxy 7 must be blowing up.

Okay, okay, shut it off.
It's stressing me out.

Mm-hmm.

- Ready? We're next.
- Okay.

And, Max,
I'd like to say it's your turn,

but it looks like you're
missing a teammate.

No, no, actually, she's right here.

Hi, I had an urgent matter to attend to,

but I am so pumped to be here.

- Uh, what's that? I can't hear you.
- Again.

I'm so pumped to be here.

Still can't hear you.

I-I'm pumped, I'm pumped!

What a thrill and
a joy it is to be here!

Whoo!

Can you get started, please?

And, Tony, standby,
because my heart rate

is all over the place.

Well, funny you should mention that,

because you no longer have to worry

about your heart rate dropping.

We customized a watch

to read even the slightest dips.

Then we developed a custom IOT framework

to create an intern that
will deliver your coffee

at the exact moment you need it.

And not only will it be fresh,

it will provide the
optimal dose of caffeine

every single time.

- The honk was my idea.
- Yeah, I hate it.

Yeah, no, it's a quick fix.

Ooh, but I love this.

Tony, Tony, this might have
rendered you obsolete.

You four have left me with
a very hard choice to make.

Okay, I'll be on my decision
couch until further notice.

Okay, great job.

Why don't you go back with your family?

And I'll let you know
when Danny decides.

Sounds good, partner.

How'd it go?

Not clear.

Hey...

uh, since we had to bail on lunch,

I am legit starving.

Oh, sorry, yeah.

Do you think that they have nachos here?

Nachos? Um, I can definitely find out.

Thanks, babe. You're the best.

Just make sure the cheese doesn't cool

and get that weird rubbery skin on top.

- No rubbery skin on top.
- Mm.

And can you ask them
to drain the jalapeños

before putting them on so they
don't make the chips soggy?

- Mm-hmm.
- Thanks, babe.

Emily Kang?

David.

- Hi.
- Hi.

I haven't seen you since...

We decided it was inappropriate for you

to be dating your TA?

I mean, you were helping teach a class

on legal ethics, so...

So, uh, what brings you to
San Francisco Memorial?

- Did you just have a baby?
- Ugh, God, no.

I'm just visiting a friend

and pretending like the
concept of motherhood

doesn't terrify me.

Have you taken Corporate
America by storm yet?

I joined a firm of monsters,
if that's what you're asking.

- You?
- Oh, me, I actually

stayed the course with public defense.

- Really?
- Yeah.

- That's...
- Not lucrative, exhausting.

I was gonna say wonderful.

Hmm.

So did you just have a baby or...?

No, no, no, I just got lost.

- Um...
- Oh.

My mom is, uh, she...

she's in surgery right now.

Her heart.

Oh, I'm sorry. That's terrible.

Is there anything I can do?

That's real... um...

That's so kind of you.

Thank you. Um...

It was so good running into you.

Um...

Hey, we should grab coffee sometime.

Yeah?

Okay, that would be, um...

I got to go.

But, uh, it was really nice...

Nice seeing you.

Are you okay?

Hmm? Yeah.

Yeah, I'm just letting my mind wander...

to some not such...

- Such good places.
- Hmm.

Let's not do that, okay?

I'm...

speaking to myself, too.

Let's focus on something else.

- Max?
- Hey, Zo.

I don't know if you go by Zo.
That sort of just came out.

I'll allow it.

Uh, uh...

Max, this is my dad.

Dad, meet Max,

who seems to be covered in glitter.

I think that's just his
natural sparkle, honey.

Yes, that, and Danny got
his glitter cannons working.

You got the job.

- What are we celebrating?
- Your sister got the job.

Oh, didn't she already have the job?

It's a long story.

Oh, well, congrats.

Just wanted to give you
the good news in person

and check on you.

You said I got the job.

Didn't you mean we got the job?

No, Danny went with you and Leif,

and it was the right call.

But we were a team.

Yeah, I thought we worked
pretty well together, too,

but still feels like a win to me.

Mr. Clarke?

Your wife's out of surgery.

As you know, she suffered
a minor myocardial infarction,

so we inserted two stents
to open up the blockages.

She'll have to go on statins
and anti-clotting medication,

but aside from that,
she should be just fine.

- Mm.
- You can go see her,

but she's still heavily medicated.

Thank you, Doctor.

Hey, uh, I'm gonna slip out,
but I'm glad everything's okay.

Oh, my God.

Max, um...

thank you for...

- everything?
- No problem.

So I guess... nice meeting you?

Yeah.

Oh.

I like him.

Oh, hey, you know what?
Why don't you just

hang back here and enjoy your nachos.

Okay.

- Hey, guys.
- Hey, Mags.

David, where's, uh...

- Kersten?
- Kersten.

Yeah, I left her in the waiting room.

Good.

Good?

I heard her on the phone
with her mother one time,

and she was so mean.

Who's mean to their mother?

I think I love Codeine Mom
even more than Normal Mom.

And what about Spark Plug?

Well,

it's Point, but...

I got the job.

Oh, yes, I knew it.

I knew it. I knew you'd get that.

Okay, champ.

Okay.

Let's take it easy for today.

Let's get some rest.

Well, it's really hard
to go to sleep with all these...

bleeps and bloops and...

We can make it easy.

When I heard my parents

sing the song

that I had heard them sing to each other

a thousand times before...

that's the moment

I realized how fragile it all is.

Like...

all that love could be taken away

in the blink of an eye.

Do you think that experience
may have caused you

to become more emotionally guarded

with people that you care about?

Yeah.

Maybe it is why I put
Max in the friend zone

so quickly after we met,

or maybe I just couldn't get over him

making fun of my wardrobe...

That first day.

How did you two stay connected

if he didn't end up getting the job?

Oh, um...

Danny hired him a month later
after he fired his own cousin

for telling people
that he was his cousin.

You know...

what's interesting, Zoey,
is that the memory

of your mother's health scare

also turns out to be a story

about your deep connection with Max.

You might not want to hear this,
but to me,

it's as much a love story
as it is a loss story.

Hey, sweetie.

You caught me on mile five.

I just thought I'd check in on you

and see if you're taking your statins.

It's been forever since I asked.

Oh, don't worry.

After years of your dad hounding me,

it's second nature now.

It's kind of ironic how
hard he fought me

on taking his pills.

Well, I'm glad to hear
you are on it, Mama.

Oh, hey, Zo.

- Oh, Mom, uh, I got to go.
- Bye.

Hi.

Mo and I were just discussing
the pop-up restaurant.

A lot of stuff to do
before I leave next week.

Wow.

- Next week.
- Yeah.

That's, um...

so soon.

Yeah, well, Rose's investor
is pushing me to get started,

which is exciting but
also nerve-racking.

I mean, this is a restaurant
my dad could come to

and judge me in person.

Well, look at how far you've come.

Um...

I was actually just thinking

about our first day at Sprqpoint

and that stupid prototype we made.

I wonder what happened to that thing.

Yeah, I have no idea,

but I definitely remember that day.

Hello, pre-hires.

Two of you are about to
join the exclusive ranks

of those we call "hires."

And since there were
standouts in both groups...

I'm going with...

Leif and Max!

Bro!

This is bigger than "Spell-iversay!"

Bottle service on me!

I know you're hurting right now, Ambs,

but I think the best way to
get over the pain of rejection

is to rebound as fast as possible.

- I'm never going out with you.
- Copy that.

Uh, Danny Michael Davis, wait a second.

Hey, if you're only taking
one person from my team,

it should be Zoey.

Why? She didn't even bother showing up

for the last round.

Yeah, well, that's only
because she's at the hospital

with her mom but,

she's a better coder than me,

she wants it more than me,
and I think she'll do great things here.

You're willing to give up your spot

for this person that you just met?

Yeah, I am.

You're a very strange man,

but I guess this floor
could stand to have

one female coder.

All right, Tony, put the glitter
back in the cannon.

I got to redo the speech.

What ya got there?

- Oh, it's, uh, it's nothing.
- Okay.

So, Max,

you have a serious decision to make.

Oh?

Should we upgrade to Economy Comfort

because we get
3 extra inches of legroom?

And if you're very nice to me,

I will try to steal you
a vookie from first class.

- Let's go for it.
- Okay.
