My name is Regus Patoff,

and I've traveled a very long way to offer you a gift.

Describe him for me. How much does he weigh?

You know, you're not at all like he described you.

If it helps him to see me as a monster, so be it.

Mother Sang had other arrangements.

- Where is she staying? - She didn't say.

Inform marketing that we're ready to launch.

Why don't we break an elephant out of the zoo?

I like Elaine's the most.

I may have a job offer for you.

- He wants 30,000. - The budget is 20.

I guess you don't got yourself an elephant.

You're not walking away from this, Patrice.

- When does it have to be done? - Patti!

I went to Pomona but it's not what it seems like.

And I shouldn't have lied to you, I'm really sorry.

Break time.

Chaos on the streets of downtown Los Angeles

earlier this morning.

A wild elephant brought 4th Street to a standstill.

We've learned the 35-year-old female elephant,

named Jumbo, was stolen late last night

from a traveling circus in Barstow.

She was later abandoned in the arts district.

Police and animal control moved in to subdue the elephant

and remove her before rush hour began.

Sadly, officials now tell us that Jumbo died

- while being transported. - Thanks for watching.

We have a lot more news...

Open the door!

Well, the big fucking grey lump died.

It was unforeseen circumstances.

Elaine, they're gonna send me down for murder.

It's not murder! People kill elephants all the time

- and post images online. - You know what? Fuck this.

I'm going to San Pedro until the heat dies down.

Where is my 10Gs?

Yes?

- Who are you? - My name is Regus Patoff,

and I've traveled a very long way to offer you a gift.

You Patoff?

Me? No.

I'm just one of the drones.

Hey, I just formally met Patrice, what a special guy.

He won't leave until he gets paid.

Yeah, where is the throat fucker?

He hasn't been in all day and he's not answering

any of my calls.

Ah, I wrote down a message for him earlier.

Where did I put it again?

Oh yeah.

We're closing in on a million users in our first day.

You created a hit game.

You really wanna walk away from that?

What are you doing?

Are you working during an office party?

I'm updating my resume.

There's a job coming up at Koala.

Executive vice president of development.

Hmm. Don't forget to mention your experience

with killing endangered wildlife.

If I get my foot in the door somewhere else,

I'll see if I can get a position for you.

No one's gonna hire me again.

You're a talented coder, Craig.

You just gotta start believing in yourself.

Hmm. Do you remember the stalkerware I put on the demo?

- To get Patoff's contacts? - Yeah.

It never got taken out of the code.

Our servers now hold data on almost a million devices.

When they find that, I'm gonna go down for 20 years.

Rock and roll.

Mr. Patoff? Where have you been all day?

I had an appointment.

My friend that we hired to do that little job,

he's here.

He wants the $10,000.

It's spent.

Spent?

The party. It was a petty cash item.

$700 on jumbo shrimp alone. Did you try it yet?

Patrice is here to collect.

Well, if I'm to believe the news,

the elephant died, did it not?

That's not our fault.

They shot her full of tranquillizers,

- and her heart gave out. - Well, nevertheless...

Our contract with Mr. Patrice is null and void.

Mr. Patoff, I know Patrice, and he has a very short fuse.

This is definitely going to light it.

He will become violent?

I can't rule it out.

We have less than a minute to strategize.

What is the solution?

Uh, I don't know.

Well, he's frightened and desperate.

- He may accept half. - We do not have half.

If we cannot pay him and his temper is volatile,

what option do we have?

We could offer him $15,000 if he waits until morning.

Patrice is greedy enough to accept.

- It should buy us some time. - With which to do what?

To give the police a person of interest,

an anonymous tip.

He's on parole. Then one slip-up and he's back inside.

Where he cannot collect.

He's tagged. It shouldn't take them long to find him.

Are we legally implicated by your actions?

It's his reputation against ours.

The worst that could happen to us is...

...more publicity.

These are not comfortable decisions, Elaine.

Sacrifices are hard... but effective.

The hunter who felled the beast.

It is a pleasure to be in business with you, Mr. Patrice.

- Where's my money? - So direct and to the point.

I like that about you. But indulge me for one moment.

I am yet to watch an elephant die.

Do they scream when they go?

I opened the cage and I got outta there.

When I left, it was still alive.

Casualty of war.

- You ever gonna let go? - Oh! In business,

a handshake is where you evaluate your opponent.

The first to release will always be subservient to the other.

Well, the next thing you're gonna put in this hand is 10Gs.

You get me?

Elaine is arranging payment, and a little bonus

from your friends at CompWare.

Oh, while we wait, you'll accompany me on an errand?

Ow!

Craig, come have a turn.

- You okay? - Yeah!

- Stand back. - Okay.

Jeez, Craig. Even I made it up to "good effort."

Someone is so mad!

Ever baked-out the airlock?

Oh we used to do it all the

- time when Sang was here. - What if someone comes in?

I'll lock the door behind us. Come on.

We'll just sneak out the other door.

♪ Now just like in a song from days of yore ♪

I will serve,

and you will receive.

You fascinate me, Mr. Patrice.

All I know from Elaine is that you will steal an elephant

for $20,000, but tell me more.

What could she get you to do for 50?

- One hundred? - I don't work for Elaine.

I'd rather talk directly to the man.

Rest assured.

When she negotiates on your price to take a human life,

you'll know that it's on my behalf.

Elaine wouldn't get involved in something like that.

I think you'll be surprised at what she's now capable of.

I got a lot of heat on me right now. I don't wanna be picked up

- with that much cash. - You're leaving? So soon?

I'll be back in the morning. Have it ready.

I win.

Hey, Elaine.

I was thinking earlier.

It feels like it might be a good time for us to swap back.

I'd like it back now.

Down here.

Mama Sang?

Creative liaison.

Elaine Hayman.

What are you doing here?

Mr. Sang's Jungle Odyssey.

He is alive.

Did... did you send us a text asking for money?

To Regus.

He is very kind to me.

He give me a place to live. He teach me English.

He give me my first phone.

Patoff gave you this phone?

- Hey! Where is she? - Patricia is helping me

complete some small administrative matters

before I depart.

Did you know she types 57 words a minute?

She's saved me a great deal of time.

The records room.

You find her. I'm gonna deal with him.

Oh, Craig.

You're not equipped for this.

Patti?

What are you doing here?

Patti provided me with valuable information, Craig.

I was unable to complete your file without her.

She's seen your weakness, your betrayal.

She poured it out on every page, in her own words.

We need to go.

Mr. Patoff needs these by five o'clock.

What did he do to you?

Elaine?

You're having a panic attack, Craig.

Breathe with me.

In.

Out.

In.

Out.

In...

Out.

I weigh 162 pounds.

What about you, Mr. Patoff?

Our friend, the jeweler, has a fanciful imagination.

He's inhaled too many fumes.

How many lives have you ruined?

How many careers have you ended?

Some people excel under stress. Some break.

We already know about you, Craig, do we not?

Ah!

Patti.

Look at me. You don't work for him.

None of us do. He's just the consultant.

Where's Craig?

He's here. He came to rescue you.

Who the fuck are you?

Consultant. Definition: one who consults.

Providing professional or expert advice in a particular field

of science or business to an organization or individual.

Ah!

You don't even know what we do.

It's of no consequence.

My job is to observe, to streamline, to improve.

My targets were met.

Costs justified.

Costs?

This is the real world, Craig.

People get hurt. People panic.

People fail.

You're not the hero.

You don't even get the girl.

Oh my God!

- Elaine Hayman? - Yes.

We'd like to ask you some questions

about your relationship with Patrice Anderson.

Did I pay Patrice $10,000 to steal an elephant?

I'm just the creative liaison.

Recruitment falls under the jurisdiction of my boss,

Mr. Patoff.

Regus Patoff.

I say "boss."

He's more of a consultant.

He doesn't have any authority.

He doesn't understand what we do.

He doesn't take a commission.

He just showed up one day,

and took over.

He elevated us.

He motivated us.

He changed our methods.

He showed us all what we're capable of.

All I can really tell you about Regus Patoff...

...he gets results.

Shares for robotics firm Pterodactyl

lost 22% of their value yesterday.

The drop comes on the heels of the apparent suicide

of the firm's founder, Rebecca Hood.

Hood started Pterodactyl in her garage in 2018

using a crowdfunding campaign.

She strived to develop the first humanoid workforce.
