1. - Just moved here
for a new job.Copy !req
2. Really excited.Copy !req
3. How long have you lived
in Charm City?Copy !req
4. - Long enough to know
it sucks.Copy !req
5. - I don't know.
I like it.Copy !req
6. A little bigger
than where I grew up,Copy !req
7. but not that different.Copy !req
8. - Except for that.Copy !req
9. - Citizens of Charm City,Copy !req
10. Feel the fire
of Jack-O-Lantern.Copy !req
11. - Are you guys seeing this?Copy !req
12. - Siri, push my meeting an hour.Copy !req
13. - I know what you're thinking.Copy !req
14. Yet another
superhero battle.Copy !req
15. Well, my name's Emily LockeCopy !req
16. and I grew up in what's known
as a fly-over state.Copy !req
17. Superheroes never
stopped there.Copy !req
18. They just flew over it.Copy !req
19. I didn't have any powers,Copy !req
20. so I did what everybody else
in my town did:Copy !req
21. finish school
and got a soul-crushing job.Copy !req
22. I felt unfulfilled.Copy !req
23. Until one day,
my dad reminded meCopy !req
24. that you don't need superpowers
to accomplish great things.Copy !req
25. - What you do,
in your own quiet way,Copy !req
26. can change people's lives
for the better.Copy !req
27. - Right then and there,
I decided to make a change:Copy !req
28. I got a job at a company that
helps regular people like usCopy !req
29. feel safer in a world where
this kind of stuff happens.Copy !req
30. And now I might not
even make it to my first day.Copy !req
31. - Oh, my God,
you're Crimson Fox.Copy !req
32. Wow.
You don't see that every day.Copy !req
33. - Actually, you do.Copy !req
34. You see it every day.Copy !req
35. - I'm still gonna
take a photo.Copy !req
36. male narrator: In a world where
superheroes and villainsCopy !req
37. battle above us
each day,Copy !req
38. Wayne Security
brings you productsCopy !req
39. that give the power back
to the powerless.Copy !req
40. Like our
revolutionary Joker anti-venom.Copy !req
41. - Whoo.Copy !req
42. - Emily Locke?
- I'm sorry I'm late.Copy !req
43. You'll never believe
what happened to me.Copy !req
44. My train literally went
off the rails and the—Copy !req
45. - I'm gonna cut you off here
because I'm assuming you lived.Copy !req
46. Mr. Wayne is waiting for you.Copy !req
47. - I just wanted
to thank you againCopy !req
48. for this opportunity,
Mr. Wayne.Copy !req
49. - Please, call me Van.Copy !req
50. Now, my cousin Bruce, he likes
to be called Mr. Wayne.Copy !req
51. I call him B-Dubs.
We're very close.Copy !req
52. And I just told him
about you.Copy !req
53. - You talked to Bruce Wayne
about me?Copy !req
54. - No, I texted him.
He's hard to reach.Copy !req
55. But... look at his reply.Copy !req
56. - "Stop using
my HBO GO password."Copy !req
57. - No, that...Copy !req
58. What a joker.
That's classic B-Dubs.Copy !req
59. Look at the one right before it.Copy !req
60. - "Sounds good."Copy !req
61. - Bruce Wayne thinks you
"sounds good."Copy !req
62. Look, I'm not gonna
lie to you.Copy !req
63. Business at Wayne Security
is down,Copy !req
64. and I am looking to you,
as our new Director of R&D.Copy !req
65. to come up
with a big idea, all right?Copy !req
66. Something that I can show
to Bruce,Copy !req
67. and he'll be like,
"What?"Copy !req
68. And I'll be like,
"Yeah."Copy !req
69. - This is everything
I have ever wanted.Copy !req
70. I promise
I will not let you down.Copy !req
71. - I know you won't.Copy !req
72. There were more
experienced candidates,Copy !req
73. but you stood out.
You are a people person.Copy !req
74. Every one
of your references saidCopy !req
75. you're a great motivatorCopy !req
76. and you actually care
about the, uh... uh... the—Copy !req
77. - People?
- Yep!Copy !req
78. - I do, that's why
I wanted to work here.Copy !req
79. I want to help people.
- Love that.Copy !req
80. As long as it's help
plus kicking ass.Copy !req
81. Because you need to
whip this team into shape.Copy !req
82. They're very talented,
but they're just missingCopy !req
83. a you to motivate them.Copy !req
84. I'm more
of a big picture guy.Copy !req
85. Look at this picture.Copy !req
86. This picture's huge.Copy !req
87. - You know, I am no stranger
to adversity.Copy !req
88. My dad owned a flower shop,
and when it was struggling, I—Copy !req
89. - I'm dying to hear
the end of that story, but—Copy !req
90. ooh, look, it's—my assistant's,
uh, motioning to me.Copy !req
91. What is it?
Jackie, did you need something?Copy !req
92. - No.
- What do you want from me?Copy !req
93. - Nothing.Copy !req
94. You are the worst.Copy !req
95. Uh, you said there's
a phone call for me?Copy !req
96. - Bruce Wayne
is on the phone for you.Copy !req
97. - Bruce Wayne?
My cuz-bro.Copy !req
98. Oh, no.Copy !req
99. - Come on.
Time to meet your team.Copy !req
100. - I can't believe I'm actually
working for Bruce Wayne.Copy !req
101. - Dot dot dot's cousin.Copy !req
102. Teddy, this is Emily Locke,
your new boss.Copy !req
103. - Nice to meet you.
What do you do here?Copy !req
104. - I disrupt.Copy !req
105. I alter the structure
of expectations,Copy !req
106. make people see things
in new ways.Copy !req
107. For example,
what do you think this is?Copy !req
108. - A desk?
- But what if it wasn't?Copy !req
109. What if it was the opposite
of a desk?Copy !req
110. - I'm sorry, I'm still not
exactly sure what you do.Copy !req
111. - I'm the Chief Design Officer.Copy !req
112. - But what if you weren't?Copy !req
113. - Wait, are you firing me?
Is she firing me?Copy !req
114. - No, no.
I was just making a joke.Copy !req
115. - Good one.
Good one.Copy !req
116. All right, come on.Copy !req
117. Let me show you around.Copy !req
118. This is the lab.Copy !req
119. That's our 3-D printer.
Don't touch it.Copy !req
120. That's liquid nitrogen.
Don't touch it.Copy !req
121. That's Wendy,
our lead software engineer.Copy !req
122. - Let me guess,
don't touch her?Copy !req
123. - Why would you touch her?Copy !req
124. - Hey, guys.
Watch this.Copy !req
125. - That's Ron.
He's head of engineeringCopy !req
126. and chief of
childlike wonder.Copy !req
127. - Batter up!Copy !req
128. - That's amazing.
What is it?Copy !req
129. - It's called the Wear Bag.Copy !req
130. It protects against collateral
damage from superhero battles.Copy !req
131. We're talking about projectiles,
falling debris, direct blows.Copy !req
132. - It's only good for one use.Copy !req
133. - I know.Copy !req
134. That's for taking my muffin,
Steve.Copy !req
135. - Oh.
- That is an amazing product.Copy !req
136. - Right?
LexCorp makes it.Copy !req
137. - We're trying to figure out
how it worksCopy !req
138. so we can make
a cheap knock-off.Copy !req
139. Welcome to Wayne Security.Copy !req
140. - Let's... be... better.Copy !req
141. - That's a permanent marker.Copy !req
142. - Well, good, because that's
how I want us to be thinking.Copy !req
143. Permanently.Copy !req
144. Look, Wayne Security
has stopped innovating.Copy !req
145. Our follow up to last year's
Joker Venom AntidoteCopy !req
146. is the exact same thing
in a slightly darker purple.Copy !req
147. - Mm, it's not slightly darker.Copy !req
148. Okay, one is amethyst
and one's sangria.Copy !req
149. You don't get it.
She doesn't get it.Copy !req
150. She's not getting it.Copy !req
151. - No,
I get that they're different.Copy !req
152. I just don't think
anyone caresCopy !req
153. about the color.Copy !req
154. - Ooh, kitty's got claws.Copy !req
155. - Guys, we need to be
innovating.Copy !req
156. We need to push ourselves.Copy !req
157. We can't...Copy !req
158. just copy what LexCorp does.Copy !req
159. - Oh.Copy !req
160. - We need to...Copy !req
161. Let's be better.Copy !req
162. And do you know how
we'll do that?Copy !req
163. - Uh, let me guess.
By thinking outside the box?Copy !req
164. - I want us to forget
the box ever existed.Copy !req
165. Ron, what are you
working on?Copy !req
166. - Literally... the box.Copy !req
167. - Ron, I did not know that.Copy !req
168. This morning, my train
was blown off the track,Copy !req
169. which apparently happens
every day around here.Copy !req
170. Let's come up with something
that solves things like that.Copy !req
171. - That's a brilliant idea.
Let me just summon a wizard.Copy !req
172. Shazam!
Ah, nothing.Copy !req
173. Have you ever even made
a product?Copy !req
174. - Well, n—no.Copy !req
175. No, but I was sixth
in my class at Wharton.Copy !req
176. - Ron, is that a product?
- Not a product.Copy !req
177. - No, I was President
of the Young Leaders Group.Copy !req
178. - Ron, surely that's a product.
- Ooh, guess again, Teddy.Copy !req
179. - Well, guess what?
This company needs a big ideaCopy !req
180. that you haven't delivered.Copy !req
181. So I suggest you take
my lead on thisCopy !req
182. because I know
what I'm doing.Copy !req
183. Okay,
Van hired me for a reason.Copy !req
184. - Yeah, because the other people
didn't work out.Copy !req
185. - What other people?
- You're the fifth new bossCopy !req
186. we've had this year.Copy !req
187. And I refuse to let myself
get attached.Copy !req
188. I'm not getting hurt again.Copy !req
189. - But we'll do
whatever you wantCopy !req
190. until number six
comes along.Copy !req
191. - Just to be clear, I'm not
gonna do whatever you want,Copy !req
192. so...Copy !req
193. - [humming, strumming guitar]Copy !req
194. - You fired four people
before you got to me?Copy !req
195. - Technically,
they weren't fired.Copy !req
196. One was crushed by rubble
before he started.Copy !req
197. I like to think of that
as God firing him.Copy !req
198. - Don't you think you should
have told me thatCopy !req
199. in the interview?Copy !req
200. - You want the real scoop?Copy !req
201. You want to pop the hood
on this vanCopy !req
202. and see what's inside?Copy !req
203. - Yes.Copy !req
204. - Fine.Copy !req
205. I was supposed to be promoted
to the Gotham office last year.Copy !req
206. But then Bob Lackey
from WayneBev pulled the ideaCopy !req
207. for Wayne Light Lime
out of his assCopy !req
208. and he took my spot!Copy !req
209. The only reason you're hereCopy !req
210. is to come up
with a big ideaCopy !req
211. to get me out of this
God-forsaken taint of a city.Copy !req
212. - And I will.Copy !req
213. It just might
take a little time.Copy !req
214. I'm sure Wayne Light Lime
didn't happen overnight.Copy !req
215. - The man left a lime in a beer,
literally overnight.Copy !req
216. Get me to Gotham,
or somebody else will.Copy !req
217. - If he thinks I'm scared,
I'm not.Copy !req
218. I'm going to get the team
to come up with a big idea.Copy !req
219. - Yeah, they seem to love you.Copy !req
220. Okay.Copy !req
221. Maybe I came on
a little strong.Copy !req
222. To get the best out of people,Copy !req
223. you need to get to know them
on a personal level.Copy !req
224. - Yeah, that line is underlined
three timesCopy !req
225. in your business book.
You left it in the kitchen.Copy !req
226. - We need to bond as a unit.
- Mm, that line was circled.Copy !req
227. - A boss can't be afraid
to look human.Copy !req
228. - That line was starred.Copy !req
229. Is a star more or less
than a circle?Copy !req
230. - Stop going through my book.Copy !req
231. A star is greater that a circle,
but less than a heart.Copy !req
232. - Wayne Security?Copy !req
233. Citizens of Charm City,Copy !req
234. this is Jack-O-LanternCopy !req
235. with a personal message
for Crimson Fox.Copy !req
236. You can run...Copy !req
237. - Shut up, shut up, shut up,
shut up, shut up.Copy !req
238. - Bruce Wayne is on the phone
for you.Copy !req
239. - Jackie,
if you are lying to me,Copy !req
240. I'll put rocks in your pocketsCopy !req
241. and I will throw you
in the ocean.Copy !req
242. - You are gonna make
a great father one day.Copy !req
243. It's really Bruce.Copy !req
244. - Oh, my God.Copy !req
245. How do I look?Copy !req
246. - Like you don't understand
how phones work.Copy !req
247. B-Dubs, baby!Copy !req
248. You keeping Gotham warm
for me?Copy !req
249. Yes!
I can hold.Copy !req
250. - Hey, guys, wait up.Copy !req
251. What's that sound?Copy !req
252. - It's a device I built
that warns youCopy !req
253. when someone you don't like
is approaching.Copy !req
254. I call it the "Emily Alert."Copy !req
255. - Well, that's very impressive.
And mean.Copy !req
256. Look, I get it, you guys
have had lots of bosses,Copy !req
257. but it's my job
to make sure we deliver,Copy !req
258. and I'm trying to help us
do that.Copy !req
259. - Look, we know you're trying,Copy !req
260. but you don't need
to give us pep talks.Copy !req
261. We've come up with hundreds
of big ideas,Copy !req
262. and every one of them
gets shot down by corporateCopy !req
263. because they're too expensive.
- Or too dangerous.Copy !req
264. - Or you need a piece of the sun
to power it,Copy !req
265. and that's impossible to get.Copy !req
266. - We're done getting our hopes
up so they can get crushed.Copy !req
267. - Well, I'm not giving up.
I believe in this team.Copy !req
268. And I'm not going anywhere.Copy !req
269. - Everyone, come out here.
I have some terrible news.Copy !req
270. We've all been fired.Copy !req
271. - Wait, what?
- Wait, wait, wait.Copy !req
272. By "we" you mean Emily,
right?Copy !req
273. - I did.
But also everyone else.Copy !req
274. - Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
No, I can't lose this job.Copy !req
275. I take care
of my sick grandma.Copy !req
276. Aww.Copy !req
277. - And I like nice things.Copy !req
278. I should have went
before Ron.Copy !req
279. - Wait, why are they
shutting us down?Copy !req
280. - Bruce says we're obsolete.Copy !req
281. Gone are the days of a man
in a bandit maskCopy !req
282. stealing a ruby
from a museum.Copy !req
283. Now it's all just super villains
trying to destroy the EarthCopy !req
284. and superheroes fighting
one anotherCopy !req
285. for vaguely defined reasons.Copy !req
286. Our products are powerless
to stop that.Copy !req
287. - So he just gave up on us?Copy !req
288. I thought we were here
to change the world.Copy !req
289. Who told you that?Copy !req
290. - It's the company motto.Copy !req
291. - Oh, that.
No, that came with the office.Copy !req
292. This used to be
a diaper company.Copy !req
293. - There's gotta be something
we can do.Copy !req
294. - Why are you drinking
champagne?Copy !req
295. - Oh, because I'm so sad.Copy !req
296. I'm sorry, I didn't want to say
anything in front of the others,Copy !req
297. but I'm being absorbed
into the Gotham office.Copy !req
298. If I knew I could fail up,
I would have done it years ago.Copy !req
299. - So, everyone loses their job,Copy !req
300. and you get exactly
what you want?Copy !req
301. - I don't know why
I was so stressedCopy !req
302. about finding that big idea.Copy !req
303. The big idea is,
I'm a Wayne.Copy !req
304. And a Wayne will always
come out on top.Copy !req
305. You know, I feel like I could
commit vehicular manslaughterCopy !req
306. and I would get away
with just a slap on the wrist.Copy !req
307. Now, I haven't done that,
but now...Copy !req
308. I feel like I could.Copy !req
309. - How long do we have
until it becomes official?Copy !req
310. Guys, I've got good news.Copy !req
311. - Damn, I've got to boost
the radius on my Emily Alert.Copy !req
312. - So, I just spoke to Van,Copy !req
313. and we're not going
to lose our jobs.Copy !req
314. - Wait, what?Copy !req
315. Guys, Emily said
we're not losing our jobs!Copy !req
316. - Technically,
we haven't been shut down yet.Copy !req
317. There is still hope.
- Oh, never mind.Copy !req
318. She was just trying
to inspire us.Copy !req
319. We're still fired.Copy !req
320. - Bruce Wayne wrote,Copy !req
321. "Winners are just losersCopy !req
322. that don't accept defeat."Copy !req
323. If we came op
with a game-changing product,Copy !req
324. Bruce would have
to reconsider.Copy !req
325. - Ooh, me, me, me,
me, me, me!Copy !req
326. I mean, unless you guys
want to go first.Copy !req
327. I'm totally cool about it.Copy !req
328. - All you.
- No, I don't want to do it.Copy !req
329. - Okay, now, we all knowCopy !req
330. that the number one cause
of workplace accidentsCopy !req
331. is Superman crashing through
office windows mid-fight.Copy !req
332. That's a simple fact.
But now...Copy !req
333. this glass is made
of Kryptonite.Copy !req
334. So if he flies close to it,
his powers will weaken,Copy !req
335. and he'll safely bounce off.Copy !req
336. - Nice, and how does it workCopy !req
337. when the people inside
need help from Superman?Copy !req
338. - I had not taken that scenario
into account.Copy !req
339. It's also not very strong
against normal things.Copy !req
340. - Okay,
I am not demoralized.Copy !req
341. I'm just going to take
a five real quick.Copy !req
342. - Hey, wait.
You haven't heard my idea yet.Copy !req
343. So, you know how everyone wants
to have sex with robots, right?Copy !req
344. - Go on.
- I'm listening.Copy !req
345. - "Problems are just
opportunitiesCopy !req
346. dressed in work clothes."Copy !req
347. You're aware this means nothing,
right?Copy !req
348. - I give up.Copy !req
349. I took this job
to make a difference,Copy !req
350. and I didn't even
get a chance.Copy !req
351. - Oh, honey,
no one makes a difference.Copy !req
352. I used to be
just like you.Copy !req
353. - I think
we're pretty different.Copy !req
354. - Oh, yeah?Copy !req
355. This me my first day
of work here.Copy !req
356. - Oh, no.
I have that shirt.Copy !req
357. - Sorry, honey.
Welcome to the real world.Copy !req
358. We should probably
go inside soonCopy !req
359. because there's an evil pumpkin
flying around.Copy !req
360. - Citizens of Charm City,Copy !req
361. kiss your precious
organic juice bar good-bye!Copy !req
362. - "You don't need to have
superpowersCopy !req
363. to accomplish great things.
Love, Dad."Copy !req
364. - He gave this to me
when I was little.Copy !req
365. I always keep it with me.
- That's so sweet.Copy !req
366. And now you're smelling it
like a creepy person.Copy !req
367. - Oh.
My dad ran a flower shop.Copy !req
368. Everything he touched
smelled like flowers.Copy !req
369. I used to know when he was
around before I even saw him.Copy !req
370. I feel like I let him down.Copy !req
371. - I wish we knew that guy was
around before we saw him.Copy !req
372. - Yeah, it would save
a lot of lives.Copy !req
373. Oh, my God.
Maybe there's a way.Copy !req
374. Guys, I have an idea.Copy !req
375. - Good, 'cause Wendy's sex robot
is not market ready.Copy !req
376. - Guys, just hear me out.Copy !req
377. Now, remember how I said
I wanted us to invent somethingCopy !req
378. that would stop things
like that train attack?Copy !req
379. - Right,
and then we laughed at you.Copy !req
380. - Wendy, what if you could
boost your Emily AlertCopy !req
381. to have a wider radius?
- It's maxed out.Copy !req
382. You have to be
in visual range.Copy !req
383. - But what if it worked
on scent?Copy !req
384. - We could totally rig it
to use chemoreceptors.Copy !req
385. - And what if we used itCopy !req
386. to track super villains,
and what if—Copy !req
387. - And what if who cares,
because we're all fired?Copy !req
388. - Look, I know you've all
been beaten down in this job.Copy !req
389. And you feel like
what we do doesn't matter.Copy !req
390. But I truly believe
we can change lives,Copy !req
391. and I know deep down
you still care.Copy !req
392. - Can I pick the color?Copy !req
393. - It's 7:00 a.m.
What am I doing here?Copy !req
394. - Van, this device we've created
has just alerted meCopy !req
395. that Jack-O-Lantern
is in the area,Copy !req
396. giving us enough time
