- 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!

- Oh, this defies
explanation, all right.

- Can you not ruin this for me?

Danny Michael Davis
is a genius.

Yeah!

There were supposed
to be glitter cannons.

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.

- Oh.

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.

So catch the new
"Furious 7" trailer?

- Do you realize
you're singing out loud?

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.

both: 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.

- Sorry, I don't know it.

- No, the clue might
be in the lyrics.

Here, write this down.

Uh...

Write it down.
- Sorry, uh, um...

will your mouth
still smile from your cheeks...

Sorry, even though
you're, like, a good singer,

like, a surprisingly
good singer

maybe you should keep
your voice down

so that everybody else--

- It's the song.
The clue is in the song.

both:

- Max.

both:

- Ah, very good.
- Thank you.

- Max, if you'll stop
with that weird duet battle,

I opened the box.

What happened?
- I opened the box.

- What? How did you do that?

- It was the numbers
in the song, 70 and 23.

- 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.

- 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.

- I love that song.

both:

both:

- 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.

- 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 cookie from first class.

- Let's go for it.
- Okay.
