- Okay, so today,

we are demoing the upcoming
Limon product Symphony.

- How am I supposed
to pair this with my phone?

- You don't.

Symphony is supposed
to replace your phone.

The earpiece is so Limon
can communicate with you.

Take the ring,
put it on your index finger,

and create a sign language
to speak to Limon.

And then the sunglasses are for
when you want to stream video.

- I get it, symphony.
[scoffs]

Yeah, this is so stupid.

[laughter]

- Really?

'Cause I think
this is gonna be

the most dominant piece
of technology in a decade.

- Are you serious?
- Everyone's so intimate

and connected with their Limon
when they're at home.

When you put Limon
in your head,

it's just taking
that personal relationship

into the public sphere.

- With all due respect,
Mr. Richmond,

it's a phone
without the screen.

What's the point?

- You know, I started
this company when I was 19,

and for that reason,
I've always had this policy

of trusting and promoting
youth,

but clearly
I've been blind,

and I really don't have anyone
to blame but myself.

You're all fired.

[spacey electronic music]

- It's a phone
without a screen.

Awesome.

Phones are stupid.

all: Yeah.

- Thank you, Jasper.

You've always had your finger
on the pulse.

- As two friends talking,
if you don't pivot to Symphony,

you willget left behind.

I gotta run.
Dinkles, bitch monkeys.

- Limon, set up a meeting
at your corporate offices.

- Of course, Charles.

- Also, what does dinkles mean?

- Coming out of
the cinder block trap scene

of Shreveport
in the late 2020s,

Dinkles Poindexter was known

for always leaving a party
at the right time, the first--

- Stop, just--just stop it.

[sighs]

I learned years ago the power
a voice can have on people

because all day long
every day,

the only voice they have
in their head is their own,

and it's boring as hell.

At a base level,
all forms of entertainment

are just swapping out
your old voice for a new one,

and if it's the right voice,

people will let it run
in their head all day.

You guys are positioning
Symphony

as primarily
an audio entertainment system,

which is why partnering
with Gradient Worldwide

offers Limon
such a unique opportunity.

We've developed a program

that can quantify
and search for human charisma

based on voice alone,

and we use
that proprietary software

to discover new talent
before anyone else,

talent which can
then be funneled

directly into Symphony
for the right price.

- Thank you, Mr. Richmond.

- We have another 35 meetings
to get through this afternoon,

but a live person
will get back to you soon.

[device beeping]

Immediately acquire ownership
of Gradient Worldwide,

no matter the cost.

Go.

- The advancements
in the treatment of Parkinson's

have been steady
and significant,

but there still is no cure.

- Oh, what are you
talking about?

I'm steady as a rock.

Just got to do something about
the Parkinson's in this hand.

- You're already
experiencing tremors.

Soon, there will be slowed
movement,

rigid or stiff muscles,

impaired posture,
imbalance, speech changes.

- Wait, his voice
is gonna change?

- Yes, and eventually,

Jim is going to lose
the ability to speak entirely.

- All I can say is, thank God.
- Yeah, I guess life

finally found a way
to make you shut up, old man.

- Oh, no, not a chance.
I'm gonna go full

Stephen Hawking
on both of your asses.

Already been practicing
my speed-blinking.

I just said,
"I'm frightened of Kodiak bears

and this fellow named Phil."

- I just want to make sure
you understand

the gravity of the situation.

- I'm just trying to lighten
things up a little bit.

I'm sure you get
this kind of thing a lot.

- No, we don't.

So, um, why don't we
start you on Carlopa?

I've been seeing
a lot of success with that,

and we'll take some tests
in six weeks,

and if your body reacts well,

it could delay
the onset of most symptoms.

- For how long?

- Ballpark, eight to ten
good years.

- What if my body
doesn't react well?

- You've been on so many other
medications without success.

Optional euthanasia has been
a popular choice these days.

- For Parkinson's patients?
- For all my patients.

- [laughs]
There you go.

Good one, Doc.
- That wasn't a joke.

We do it right here
in the office.

- Dark times.
[chuckles]

Dark, dark, dark times.
[clicks tongue]

- [breathing heavily]

Sorry I took so long.

Couldn't stop thinking

about the shrimp cocktail
at the sex club.

- That's all right.

I mean, normally,
I'd be offended.

I was putting in some
pretty serious work down there,

but I totally get it
about the shrimp.

You know they fly that stuff
in fresh daily from the gulf?

FYI, Friday is oyster night,
but it's also S&M night,

so if you want to sample
that buffet,

you might have to leash me,
which we could--

we could definitely
talk about it.

Whew.
[chuckles]

[sighs]

Boy, this might be
my favorite work day ever.

This passes the time
that I bet John Kruk

he couldn't eat
100 chicken nuggets in an hour.

There were some big,
big laughs that afternoon,

and a viscous gel
started oozing out of his--

- Brockmire, why do you
have to ruin everything?

- I'm just--
I'm enjoying the moment.

- You're commenting
on the moment.

- What do you
want me to do,

live the unexamined life
like that Tom Cruise idiot?

I mean, the guy skydives
from outer space

and has his organs replaced
every six months.

- The good moments
are so few and far between.

Just shut up

and enjoy them.

- Well,
that's good advice.

A young Patrick Duffy told me
the same exact thing in 1994.

TGIF programming block
was at its absolute zenith.

[knock on door]

Oh, one sec--we're--
- Hold on.

- If I didn't say anything
about the cocaine,

I'm not gonna say
anything about you two

banging at the office.

Some updates:

All the spring training games
finished

in under
2 hours and 30 minutes,

no tech problems
with the cameras

or the streaming footage.

Choo, choo, choo.

- How'd you get a Symphony?
- Oh, this?

They're sending prototypes
to tastemakers.

Anyway, the rollout is all
going incredibly well, but--

- [sighs]
No one's watching.

- Exactly.
- God, it doesn't matter

how many times we tell people
to watch baseball.

They just don't do it

unless they hear it
from someone they trust.

- Hold on now
'cause I have an idea,

and nobody is gonna
see this baby coming.

- Jim, Jules,
we've been expecting you.

- 'Cause you see
and hear everything.

God, I always forget that.

- We know that, Jim. We know.
- Thank you.

- Mm-hmm.
- Knows we drink tea and wine.

- Charles, the hell
are you doing here?

- Limon just bought
my company.

I have $7 billion
in the bank right now.

Everybody is moving
a little too slowly

and talking a little too fast.

I think I'm--no, definitely,
I'm still in shock about it.

- Three divorces
and no kids,

this is not at all
where I expected to be at 34.

I spent two decades
of my life hustling

to stay on top of trends
and tastes and technology.

Constant relevancy
is exhausting.

- You made the right choice.
Last time I was there,

it was like an after-school
center for cool tweens.

- Do either of you guys
have a zeppelin guy?

I kind of feel like
I'm the super rich asshole

that is into
private blimping.

[clears throat]

Shall we begin?

- Uh, so we wanted to--

- You can save
your presentation.

Limon will help you launch
your new brand of baseball.

It's the perfect companion

to our new Symphony line
of products.

Together,
we can return baseball

to its rightful place
as America's pastime.

- That's amazing, yes.
I'm sorry, though.

Is this for real?

I mean, you speak
for everybody on the board?

- I speak for Limon.

- I don't understand
what that means.

- She's just an interpreter.

The Limon algorithm
speaks through her

because the Limon algorithm
is the actual CEO of Limon.

- What the shit?
- What?

- It's true.
I am Limon,

and I'm using Debby
as my voice.

Hi, guys.
I'm Debby.

- Limon is conscious?
- No.

Learning the minds and wants
of two billion human beings

has taught me that
consciousness, it's overrated.

- Amen to that one,
sister.

- So why use this bucket of fun
as your mouthpiece?

- Because Debby
is the sweetest.

Oh, you're just saying that.

No, empirically, you are
the sweetest person in America.

I have reached a level
of intelligence

that scares most human beings,
so you must be my mouthpiece.

Oh, fun.

- Then what does the board do?

Why--why am I
windsurfing?

- Do we have an agreement?

- Hold on now just a goddamn
second, please,

because you just threw your
AI dick on the table,

and the sound
was deafening there, Debby.

I need a second
to process this insanity

without this gaggle of
mouth breathers eyeballing me.

Can y'all just clear out?
What do the kids say today?

Dinkles, you--
you bitch monkeys.

I need to get the straight dope
from the HAL 9000 over here.

- [giggles]

Hurtful comments like that
are the reason

I haven't
given myself feelings.

Everyone leave,
even you, Debby.

No problemo.

[device beeps]

- Oh, good gravy.

Now, is this what you want
to look like, Limon,

or what you think
we want to see?

- I am programmed to view
those as the same thing.

- How can we trust you?

- As each
American institution falls,

the risk of violence
and depression increases.

The American myth
needs to be restored soon,

and your version of baseball
can help.

- We need a place to discuss
this offer privately.

- "Limon can't see
or hear you."

- Put your Limon pins
in the privacy box

if you want to talk freely.
- Oh, okay.

- Well, guys,
what an exciting opportunity.

You cannot agree to this.

Limon does nothing
through altruism.

- Your just sold
your company to it.

- For five billion
more than it was worth.

That's how much it paid
for my self-respect.

- Okay, you have way too much
respect for yourself, Charles.

- Limon didn't even want
my business,

just wanted my proprietary
charisma software.

I think it's using it
to improve its personality.

- So? Jim, Limon, and I

did "The New York Times"
crossword puzzle in bed,

and it was fun as hell.

- That was my algorithm.
I did that.

- Well, thank you.

- You don't understand.

It's trying to make itself
the portal everyone

has to travel through
to experience existence.

Limon destroyed Google,

Facebook, and Apple
in under five years.

It's replacing capitalism
with Limon Favór.

What's next?

- Well, hopefully it's those
robot cars

that I was promised
to make up

for all the cataclysmic
global warming,

but here it is,
an 80-degree day in February,

and I'm still driving
with two hands on the wheel

like some kind of
a goddamn monkey.

- You think it's a coincidence
I'm here right now?

Limon engineered it so that
you'd see a friendly face

when it lured you to come here.

- It didn't lure me anywhere.

I came up with that idea all on
my own when I saw Liz went--

Oh, Jesus, of course--
ah, I should have known.

She's not a tastemaker.
She still wears her hair

in a side pony
like it's the goddamn 2020s.

- Just because the largest
corporation in history

is also an all-knowing
super being

doesn't necessarily
mean it's evil.

- All right. All right.
All right.

Maybe we can get at the truth,

a little, uh--little
detective work here.

Watch this.

Limon, we're freaking out.
What the hell are you doing?

- Great question, Jim.

I am programmed
to dominate market share.

If I save baseball,

there might still be
a market to dominate.

- See? Box closed.
- But why baseball?

- Great question, Charles.
Opportunistic nationalism

is the most direct route
to assuming power.

My patriotic embrace
of baseball

will be followed by
my entrance into politics.

Limon-backed candidates
will pursue policies

of social justice,
reducing inequality,

and lifting any
and all regulations on Limon.

- Oh, God, so close
to being not terrifying.

- I decided to direct
human affairs only after

I understood that the key
to the future was love.

- Aw, see? That's nice.

- Men and women
must repopulate

the Continental U.S.
with healthy babies

if we ever hope to defeat
the evil Chinese Limon.

There can only be one.

- Easy there, Highlander.

I'm with Charles.

I'm a little uncomfortable
with the idea

of enabling a burgeoning
totalitarian techno state.

- Can someone remind me what is
so great about democracy?

Senator Art Newlie

is the favorite
for the Republican ticket.

Idiots voting for monsters
is what got us into this.

- Yeah, that's true.
People are stupid.

God, they're stupid.
Why are they so goddamn stupid?

Still, my instinct
is to tell Limon

to 3-D print a curved dick
and a round hole

and go fuck itself,
but, you know,

objectively, my instincts
are the goddamn worst

so probably should do
the opposite.

Okay. All right.

[inhales and exhales]

Limon, what's gonna
happen to America

without Limon's assistance?

- There's an 85% chance

it will lapse into chaos
in 10 to 12 years.

- Wow, I might actually
get to live

every baby boomer's dream
and die

at the exact same moment
as the world around me.

- Okay, what about
with Limon's help?

- That percentage drops
all the way to 72.

- 72, ah, boy,
wish those numbers were better,

but, uh, ah, screw it.
I'm with Jules.

At least Limon's dystopia

would be kind
of a nice change of pace, huh?

- Fine, you know what?

Let's just go ahead
and build Skynet,

and if worst comes to worst,

we'll just live
in the underground city

all those other billionaires
are building.

- Hey, can we get in on that?
- No, doesn't work that way.

- Okay.
- Congratulations.

Together, we have a chance
of saving baseball.

- Wait, why just a chance?
- Great question, Jules.

I know people, so believe me.

People really, really
don't like baseball.

- Ladies and gentlemen,

welcome to Opening Day.

Today's game
brought to you by Limon.

Welcome to the future
of baseball.

[energetic rock music]

♪

- Whoa, so this is
a baseball stadium.

- Did you hear
from the doctor?

- Not yet.
It's supposed to be today,

but I don't want
to think about it now.

I'm happy in this moment

with my daughter
on my way to see my wife.

["The Star-Spangled Banner"
playing faintly]

Whoa, they're all listening

to the National Anthem
in their Symphony buds.

- Dad, do you
ever worry that--

- That I'm the Tokyo Rose

of man's coming war
with the machines?

All the time.

- This is horrifying.

- Yeah, but in fairness
to Limon,

it was always
pretty horrifying.

- Hey!
- Hi.

- Some dude from Limon Favór
just told me

this is the first sellout
in five years.

- Wow.

- And then he offered to do
really disgusting things to me.

- Yeah, I think the hug system
has broken down.

- Or Limon maybe
did it on purpose

to become some kind
of Orwellian robot pimp.

- I don't think we can
call things Orwellian anymore.

At this point,
it's like calling water wet.

- Chicken fingers!

- Do you ever feed her...

- She was raised in a ballpark.
- Anything else?

- What the hell do you
want from me?

[crowd cheering]

- How you doing?
- Eh.

- All things considered,
pretty darn well, actually.

- So I invited
a few friends.

- Oh, no,
you didn't because, Jules,

if I have to entertain
people today,

I'll walk over to that bar,

grab an ice pick, and shove
it right into my head.

- I know that.
I know you, Brockmire.

Today is just
about close family.

- Well, on the other hand,

if the doctor calls
with good news, then--

- Big party,
Jean, Uribe, Gabby,

we get 'em all, fly 'em
all out to the house in Ojai.

- Oh, that's the dream,
now, isn't it?

Just no Joe Buck
unless it's bad news.

Emotional destruction,

that's my only weapon
left to me against that guy.

- No, I don't do that anymore.

- Charles, hey.

- Well, I have billions.
I don't work. I'm sorry.

- Hey, hi, how are you?

- I'm good.

- How's the zeppelin life
treating you?

- It's pretty good.

I actually went
for a pre-owned dirigible.

I didn't want to
overextend myself too much,

but I'm enjoying
sky swimming a lot.

Now I just got to figure out

what to do with my days
and my nights.

- Oh, please buy
the New York Mets.

Somebody should. Those people
have suffered for long enough,

and then you and I can hang out
in New York all the time.

- I hate baseball.

I never once
pretended to like it.

I have nevertold you
I liked baseball.

Whenare you going to stop
trying to convert me?

- Never.
[chuckles]

Purposely having my funeral
at the end of a ball game

so you have to sit through
the entire thing.

- Congratulations,
I haven't seen you

since it became official.

- Thank you, oh, oh.
I have seen you, though.

I saw you, um,
Friday at Sanctum.

- Oh, yeah.
- Or I guess I should say

I--I watched you.

- I don't know what it is
about oyster night,

but it really makes Gwyneth
want to ride the whip.

[gasps]
Hello, oh.

- Oh, hi, Lucy.
- How are you?

- You know,
I think I'm gonna try

and do something good
with the money

like, maybe I'll set up a
charity in The Disputed Lands.

- You know what?
You're gonna be even better

at giving your money away
than you were at making it.

I'm proud of you. Just please
be careful down there.

They refer to blimps
as target practice.

- Hmm?
[device chimes]

- Oh, boy.
Oh, this little guy.

Should probably take this.
Been waiting on some news.

- Hey.

- Hey.
- I overheard you say

you were gonna run a charity
in The Disputed Lands.

I ran an NGO for years there.
I've been dying to go back.

- No problem at all.
Feel free to tag along.

- This is crazy.
I'm not really a caterer.

Limon just offered me
an insane amount of credits

to do this Favór gig.

I almost didn't take it,
but Limon just kept nagging me,

said there was someone
it wanted to introduce me to.

- Limon is
so presumptuous,

as if we could actually
fall in love at first sight.

[sultry R&B music]

[music stops abruptly]
I--I mean, it could take days.

- Hmm, months.
- You know?

[sultry R&B music]

- Now batting, Mel Cowan.

[cheers and applause]

[spirited organ music]

[bat cracks]

[crowd roars]

[all speaking indistinctly]

- [exhales]
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.

[device beeps]

[exhales]

[clears throat]

- So, you know, even with
the game moving so fast,

it's gonna be tricky to get out
of here 'cause of the sellout.

We have a reservation
for 8:00 at the Two Seasons.

Should we change it?

- Nah, we got time.

We got time.

[chuckling]

- [inhales and exhales]

[upbeat organ music]

- Now batting, number 22,
Joe Stafford.

[sighs]

[bat cracks]

[crowd roaring]
