Short filmTranscript
00:00:09Can you believe it's been three years since Eli left for work?
00:00:13Feels like yesterday.
00:00:17I wonder he'll make it home for Christmas this year.
00:00:28Sir, it's not looking good.
00:00:30The hackers are about to break through the firewall.
00:00:31Don't let them.
00:00:32This is the company's lifeline.
00:00:34We have to protect it at all costs.
00:00:37My system's been hijacked!
00:00:39It's mine too!
00:00:40What do we do?
00:00:42How do we fix this?
00:00:46Elijah, we've been hacked.
00:00:48We need your help.
00:00:50What's the problem this time?
00:00:52Didn't I bring it under control already?
00:00:53There are more hackers now, and they're trying to bust through the firewall.
00:00:56They've already hijacked our computer systems.
00:00:59These fuckers are persistent, I'll give them that.
00:01:02These guys are using virtual IPs.
00:01:04They're not messing around.
00:01:05I've just blocked about 500 IP addresses.
00:01:07Jesus, Elishas.
00:01:08You're really going 1v500?
00:01:12Sir, where did Gray Tech find this Elijah guy?
00:01:15He's a total genius.
00:01:17Elijah's our ace of spades.
00:01:18He single-handedly developed three of the products that made Gray Tech the top tech company in the country.
00:01:23Oh, and he defeated KD, the world's number two hacker.
00:01:27Then, wouldn't that make him the world's number one hacker?
00:01:35It's done.
00:01:36Elijah, you're incredible!
00:01:37One on 500, and you barely broke a sweat!
00:01:45It's been a long day.
00:01:46You all should get home early.
00:01:47You guys heard Elijah?
00:01:48Let's wrap up early today!
00:01:49An early Christmas present for everyone!
00:01:55Mom, what's going on?
00:01:57Eli, will you...
00:02:02Are you coming home for Christmas?
00:02:03I'm literally on my way.
00:02:05Oh, and I'll be bringing my girlfriend, too.
00:02:07You and Dad are going to love her.
00:02:09Have someone on duty in case anything comes up.
00:02:12If you need me, I'll be a call away.
00:02:13It's the holidays, Elijah.
00:02:15Just forget about work for a while.
00:02:21I don't remember scheduling a Christmas party at the office.
00:02:26Um, who's this?
00:02:27This is our CEO's daughter, Samantha Gray.
00:02:30She's just returned from overseas.
00:02:33Due to her father's poor health, she'll be acting as Gray Tech's stand-if CEO.
00:02:38Here's the deal, folks.
00:02:39I don't know how my father ran this company,
00:02:42but my rule number one is no slacking off during work hours.
00:02:46This is great.
00:02:46I can explain.
00:02:47Silence!
00:02:48You're fired.
00:02:51Starting today, there are going to be some major changes around here.
00:02:55I'm going to weed out each and every slapper in this office.
00:03:03Elijah, you're our top programmer.
00:03:05Please, speak up in our defense.
00:03:07We've been working insane hours while everyone else is at home for the holidays.
00:03:10You know we don't deserve to get fired.
00:03:14Sama, uh, I mean Miss Gray.
00:03:17We've been working overtime every day lately.
00:03:19Some of us even stayed here overnight last night to help protect the company from-
00:03:23You're only working overnight because you waste time all day.
00:03:27You think our competitors are this indeficient?
00:03:30Working overtime doesn't give you idiots the right to bargain with me.
00:03:34Miss Gray, it seems you're unaware that several days ago we were hit with an unprecedented attack
00:03:40from highly sophisticated hackers.
00:03:42Through teamwork and days of tireless work, we were finally able to fend them off.
00:03:47Warding off hackers is your job.
00:03:49What do you want?
00:03:50A trophy?
00:03:50I've got some news for you, shit brains.
00:03:53All of you will be working over Christmas this year!
00:03:56To keep up with our competitors, we need to be constantly improving and pushing the envelope.
00:04:01And for anyone who stays home on Christmas, consider yourself unemployed!
00:04:05Miss Gray, no one in this industry works on Christmas.
00:04:08It's the one day we get to be with our families.
00:04:11Surely you can understand.
00:04:12Is your salary for going home and stuffing gifts into stockings?
00:04:16Have you forgotten who feeds you, who houses you, who gives you cars, and who pays for your children's schools?
00:04:21Ma'am, I agree that continuous innovation is vital.
00:04:23But rushing things will only lead to disaster.
00:04:25I suggest you reconsider.
00:04:26Who do you think you are questioning my decision?
00:04:30Miss Gray, this is Elijah Green.
00:04:34He's our chief programmer.
00:04:35He's highly respected within the company.
00:04:37Even your father values his advice.
00:04:40Looks like my father spoiled this Elijah.
00:04:42If I don't bring him down, Gray Tech will turn into Green Tech sooner or later.
00:04:45I'll say it again.
00:04:46Everyone must show up on Christmas.
00:04:48Anyone who doesn't come in can submit their resignation.
00:04:51Miss Gray, do you know how much this decision will damage employee morality?
00:04:54Don't be dramatic.
00:04:55Since when are you qualified to speak for everyone?
00:04:57Anyone who wants Christmas off, stand up.
00:05:03They're not your servants.
00:05:06They're people.
00:05:07They need a healthy work-life balance.
00:05:10As acting C, you have to take that into account.
00:05:13Or what?
00:05:14Are you threatening me?
00:05:15My decisions are for the company's long-term growth and to make sure all of you get raises.
00:05:20Besides, while we're all home decorating Christmas trees, who's going to solve user issues?
00:05:25Adam has already arranged around-the-clock coverage.
00:05:27No user issue will be missed.
00:05:30Mr. Green, you have repeatedly challenged my authority.
00:05:34I have no choice.
00:05:37You are fired.
00:05:44What did you just say?
00:05:45You heard me.
00:05:46My father pampering you all these years must have made you think you're hot shit.
00:05:50But you're in my house now, and Gray Tech is no place for arrogant preps like you.
00:05:55Fine, then.
00:05:56Do whatever you want.
00:05:57But you're making a big mistake.
00:06:01Wait!
00:06:02Before you leave, I need you to return all the confidential company data in your possession.
00:06:07What?
00:06:07I have nothing to give you.
00:06:09Liar!
00:06:10Return everything in its original form, or else!
00:06:13I don't know what you're talking about.
00:06:16Security!
00:06:19Stop that man!
00:06:20He's stealing our company's secrets and wealth!
00:06:24What are you waiting for?
00:06:25Miss Gray is your boss now.
00:06:26If she orders you to do something, do it!
00:06:28But ma'am, Mr. Grinner is...
00:06:30I'll tell you what he is.
00:06:31He's a spy and a traitor.
00:06:33Seize him so we can take back what's ours.
00:06:38That's all he has.
00:06:40Elijah Greens, this is your last chance.
00:06:44Turn over the data, now!
00:06:46Samantha Gray, I told you I have nothing to give you.
00:06:49You'll have to surrender sooner or later.
00:06:51And I won't just take the data, I'll take your car, your house, and your money, too!
00:06:56I'm not surrendering to you.
00:06:58All those things you mentioned were given to me by your father as tokens of appreciation.
00:07:01Now that he's out of the picture, what's the use in returning them?
00:07:04You're digging your own grave, and you're going to regret it.
00:07:07The word regret isn't in my vocabulary.
00:07:10Listen to me.
00:07:11Take this man's hands and beat them to a plum so that he never types on a keyboard again.
00:07:15Are you deaf?
00:07:15If you ignore my orders, I'll take you down along with him!
00:07:22Miss Gray?
00:07:24Does your father know what you're doing?
00:07:28Miss Gray, let's not do anything rash.
00:07:30We can just follow protocol and take him to the police station.
00:07:35Once the tech world finds out what he's done, other companies won't touch him with a ten-foot rope.
00:07:39All right, have him arrested and blacklisted across the entire industry.
00:07:45Quiet!
00:07:47Another word and all of you are fired!
00:07:52I want this man to disappear.
00:07:55Miss Gray, you're taking this too far!
00:07:59I haven't done anything illegal!
00:08:01You're going to pay for this.
00:08:03Remove him.
00:08:05Oh, and May, from this day on you'll be working as my personal assistant.
00:08:16Mr. Greens, we were just following orders.
00:08:18You're free to go now.
00:08:21But we'll take care of it.
00:08:22Get out of here and don't look back.
00:08:23Thank you, thank you both.
00:08:24I won't forget this.
00:08:29Ava, I have some important news.
00:08:30Elijah Green has been fired from Gray Tech.
00:08:32You're his first love, right?
00:08:33Get in touch with him and convince him to join Eagle Tech.
00:08:35We need him on our side at all costs.
00:08:36Yes, sir.
00:08:37I'll get right on it.
00:08:38Elijah Green got sacked?
00:08:39This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
00:08:41I have to recruit him to join Sky Tech.
00:08:43What?
00:08:44Elijah Green's got laid off?
00:08:45You mean the lead programmer at Gray Tech?
00:08:47If we bring him on board, Lions Tech will catapult to the top of the tech world.
00:08:50We can't let this chance pass us up.
00:08:55Elijah, I heard you got fired.
00:08:57I'd like to formally offer you the role of lead engineer at Eagle Tech.
00:09:00We would be overjoyed to have someone like you on our team.
00:09:02Ava, I literally just got fired.
00:09:04I'm not in the mood for this now.
00:09:05All I want to do is go home and enjoy the holidays.
00:09:10All this time, I've been getting home late after Grace is asleep.
00:09:13But when she gets back today, I'm going to finally propose to her and then take her to meet my
00:09:16family.
00:09:18Derek, why so rough?
00:09:20Come on, I've been waiting forever.
00:09:22Now that your aunt's gone, we can finally get it on.
00:09:24Babe, I know you want me.
00:09:25You're gross.
00:09:25Just talk to that stupid boyfriend of yours already.
00:09:28There's no sense in putting it off any longer.
00:09:29God, don't be in such a rush.
00:09:30He's just my boyfriend.
00:09:31It's not like I'm married to him or something.
00:09:33Plus, it's more exciting this way, right?
00:09:35Fair point.
00:09:36That one time you forgot your ID and we couldn't book the hotel room,
00:09:38it was your dumbass boy tool who came to pick you up.
00:09:41I can wait to bring Grace to mom and dad.
00:09:44Derek, we should really do this somewhere else.
00:09:46What if he comes back?
00:09:47See, nothing to be afraid of.
00:09:49That loser just got fired from Gray Tech and banned across the industry.
00:09:52If he was still lead programmer, I might fear him a little bit,
00:09:55but now he's just some jobless schmuck.
00:10:05Eli, why are you home so early?
00:10:07Grace, what are you doing?
00:10:09Well, if it isn't Mr. Workaholic, we're actually in the middle of something.
00:10:14So why don't you wait outside for us to finish?
00:10:17Don't worry.
00:10:18I'll be quick.
00:10:20Come on, Elijah.
00:10:21How much longer are you going to keep fooling yourself?
00:10:23Grace, why are you treating me like this after all I've done for you?
00:10:26What exactly have you done for me?
00:10:28I bet you can't even tell me one single thing that you did for me.
00:10:31You see that bag?
00:10:32Derek spent 100 grand on it for me.
00:10:33Did you ever get me anything that nice?
00:10:35Material objects don't prove a person's love?
00:10:37Eli, as far as I know, you're unemployed.
00:10:39You can't even put food on the table,
00:10:40so don't come to me with these abstract muses on love.
00:10:44Face it, you're a capital L loser.
00:10:47A beauty like Grace needs a real man in her life.
00:10:51But you, you're a fucking joke.
00:10:54Yeah, Derek's dad is Rick Henderson,
00:10:56vice president of Eagle Solutions,
00:10:57a subsidiary of the second biggest tech company in the country.
00:11:02That means Derek has superior DNA.
00:11:04Can you blame me for choosing him?
00:11:05Grace, our love, does it really mean nothing to you?
00:11:10Love? Can love put me in a mansion or a convertible?
00:11:13Can love give me the life I've always dreamed of?
00:11:15Derek is the only one who can offer that.
00:11:17Elijah, I never want to see you again.
00:11:21Alright, I guess you've shown me your true colors.
00:11:23Starting today, let's go our separate ways and forget we ever happened.
00:11:26But don't come crying if this decision comes back to bite you!
00:11:29Crying over you?
00:11:30Please, you're not worth a single tear.
00:11:33Elijah Green really made a run for it?
00:11:35God, that guy is something else.
00:11:38May, make sure he doesn't get off easy.
00:11:40Of course, I won't disappoint you.
00:11:44Don't worry, Miss Gray.
00:11:45Elijah has a surnamo of trouble heading his way.
00:11:49How about this?
00:11:51Grace technically remains your girlfriend,
00:11:53but you can't stop me when I want to see her.
00:11:55The thrill of stealing her from you is just too addicting.
00:11:58Derek, you're so naughty.
00:12:00It's fine, I don't want her anymore.
00:12:02Enjoy my sloppy seconds.
00:12:04And mark my words,
00:12:05I'm going to get even with you fools one day.
00:12:09So you're going to get even, huh?
00:12:11We'll see about that, Elijah.
00:12:15Elijah said he'd be back for the holidays,
00:12:17but it's Christmas Day and there's still no sign of him.
00:12:24Sadie, get out here!
00:12:31Merry Christmas, Stephen.
00:12:32Christmas, my ass.
00:12:33I'm here for the money you owe me.
00:12:35You know how things are with Mark right now.
00:12:37We're doing our best.
00:12:38Can you just...
00:12:38Sadie, spare me the sorry excuses.
00:12:40I already did you a favor by not showing up on Thanksgiving.
00:12:43Now I've run out of patience.
00:12:44I know, but we just don't have the money yet.
00:12:50You don't have the money, huh?
00:12:52No sweat.
00:12:54I've got an idea.
00:12:55What kind of idea?
00:12:57Dad, doesn't Uncle Mark owe us 100,000 bucks?
00:12:59Get this, Elijah pissed off Derek,
00:13:01and Derek asked us to get back at him.
00:13:03He said if we do a good job,
00:13:04he'll give us a million dollar reward.
00:13:08That's awesome!
00:13:09Your son just has to kill someone.
00:13:13K-kill someone?
00:13:15If you agree, I'll write off your debt,
00:13:18and you'll get a million dollar reward.
00:13:20He just has to kill one person.
00:13:22Plus, a family like yours can't afford to be picky right now.
00:13:25Nora?
00:13:26That would be Ms. Nora Green,
00:13:28the newest sales manager at Eagle Solutions,
00:13:30a subsidiary of the famous Eagle Tech.
00:13:31A woman with a very promising career ahead of her.
00:13:34This is a contract from Derek Henderson,
00:13:35son of Rick Henderson.
00:13:37These are the terms.
00:13:38They have an enemy that they need to disappear.
00:13:40If Elijah can take him out,
00:13:41the Hendersons will give you one million dollars as a reward.
00:13:43It's a sweet deal.
00:13:45Sign the contract while you still can.
00:13:49Nora, how could you be so cruel?
00:13:52You're asking Eli to kill somebody?
00:13:54Who knows?
00:13:55Maybe it's his calling to be a hitman.
00:13:57Plus, if Elijah gains the respect of the Henderson family,
00:14:00you guys are set for life.
00:14:01Nora Steven,
00:14:02please don't ask this of us.
00:14:04Eli wouldn't hurt a fly.
00:14:05You haven't seen him for three years.
00:14:07He could have changed, for all you know.
00:14:08Just sign the contract,
00:14:09and you'll get to spend your old life in peace.
00:14:10Please, just wait a little longer for the money.
00:14:13Eli told me he's bringing his girlfriend back for Christmas this year.
00:14:15He'll think of something.
00:14:20Sadie, show some common sense.
00:14:22Elijah's just a child in an adult body.
00:14:24Why are you still holding out hope for him?
00:14:26No, he's really coming back this time.
00:14:28He called me yesterday,
00:14:30and he told me he was coming home.
00:14:32Are you signing or not, you old hag?
00:14:33Don't make me get my hands dirty.
00:14:35I'm not turning my son into a murderer!
00:14:40All right, you wrinkly bitch.
00:14:41Let's see what you'll choose,
00:14:43your son or your life.
00:14:48Let go of my mom!
00:14:53Mom, are you okay?
00:14:56I'm fine, Eli.
00:14:58I'm just happy to see you.
00:15:02It's Christmas.
00:15:04Shouldn't you be at home celebrating?
00:15:05Look who the cat dragged in.
00:15:07You finally decided to show up, huh?
00:15:09And not even a long time no-see, Uncle Steven,
00:15:10or a how-have-you-been-Uncle Steven?
00:15:12Must have got those manners from your mother.
00:15:14Eli just got back,
00:15:16and he's probably cold after the trip.
00:15:19Why don't we take things inside?
00:15:29Dad, I had no idea you were so sick.
00:15:31Why didn't you tell me?
00:15:34One day, he got sick out of the blue
00:15:36since around Thanksgiving last year.
00:15:39Here, they're homemade.
00:15:40I don't need your fake hospitality.
00:15:42Let's cut to the chase.
00:15:43Elijah, your mother owes me 500,000 bucks,
00:15:46and she said you'd have it when you came back.
00:15:48Come on, pay up!
00:15:49Mom, what's this about?
00:15:51Why do you owe Uncle Steven so much money?
00:15:53Eli, this whole thing is such a mess.
00:15:55Last fall, your father needed life-saving surgery,
00:15:57and I had to borrow the money from Steven.
00:15:59But I never thought he would-
00:16:01How did 100 grand turn into 500?
00:16:03You're taking advantage of my mother.
00:16:04This is extortion.
00:16:05Technically, it should be a lot more than 500.
00:16:07That's with a family discount included.
00:16:09I'm trying to make things easier.
00:16:10You're hiking up the interest rate.
00:16:12This is against the law.
00:16:14Against the law?
00:16:15Around here, I am the law.
00:16:16Elijah, this isn't a matter of right and wrong.
00:16:18It's simple.
00:16:19Either you give me the money,
00:16:20or you're carrying out a hit for the Henderson family.
00:16:27Your uncle told me that if we don't give them the money,
00:16:30they're going to force you to kill an enemy of the Henderson family.
00:16:34What?
00:16:35They want to turn me into a hitman?
00:16:37I refuse to comply with such an outrageous arrangement.
00:16:39We're taking this to court.
00:16:41Please, don't be so naive.
00:16:42I forgot to tell you,
00:16:43I've been promoted to sales manager of Eagle Solutions.
00:16:46With the type of lawyer I can afford,
00:16:47you wouldn't stand a chance.
00:16:49That's right.
00:16:50Not to mention, we've got the Hendersons in our corner,
00:16:51and their son is on excellent terms with Nora.
00:16:53We're basically untouchable around here.
00:16:56The Henderson's son?
00:16:57You mean Derek Henderson?
00:16:58I should have figured you were running in the same circles.
00:17:00Does the president of Eagle Solutions know about what you're doing?
00:17:03How about Eagle Tech CEO John Eagle?
00:17:05Wow, you've really done your homework.
00:17:07But no amount of knowledge can make up for the fact that you're a penniless loser.
00:17:14Breaking news.
00:17:15In an unexpected turn of events at the world-famous company Gray Tech,
00:17:18renowned lead programmer Elijah Green has been fired after violating company policy.
00:17:22They will be considered a mortal enemy.
00:17:23Gray Tech's lead programmer is also named Elijah Green,
00:17:26and he just got fired.
00:17:28Elijah, are they talking about you?
00:17:29That's right, it's me.
00:17:30Is it true what they said on the news?
00:17:35Don't worry, mom.
00:17:36It's just a small setback.
00:17:38I'll be fine.
00:17:39Elijah, if you've got any sense in you, you'll hurry up and sign that contract.
00:17:43Don't worry, mom and dad.
00:17:44Sign it.
00:17:45And your mom and dad will get a million dollar reward.
00:17:48Otherwise, if you die one day, and your parents have no one to support them,
00:17:52they'll end up begging on the streets.
00:17:53I'm not killing someone.
00:17:55As for the money, all I can do is pay you back the 100 grand at a normal interest rate.
00:18:00I'm trying to help you.
00:18:02The least you could do is show a little gratitude.
00:18:04You need to get one thing straight.
00:18:06I'm not some pusover that you can manipulate as you please.
00:18:08And you need to get one thing straight.
00:18:11Eagle Tech is the second biggest tech company in the world.
00:18:14If you turn down the Henderson family, they have a million ways to make you disappear.
00:18:19Is that a threat?
00:18:21Nora, I thought you'd have this taken care of by now.
00:18:29Derek, Merry Christmas.
00:18:31I didn't know you were going to come all the way here.
00:18:33Merry Christmas, Mr. Henderson.
00:18:35I'm Nora's father, Steven.
00:18:36My brother's family here are an ungrateful bunch.
00:18:38They even had the nerve to reject your offer.
00:18:40I thought you'd know better than to say no to the Henderson family.
00:18:42You again, huh?
00:18:43I knew you were a scumbag, but this is a whole new extreme.
00:18:47Wait, you two know each other?
00:18:48Of course we do.
00:18:50I can't seem to escape this guy lately.
00:18:52Yeah, I know this chump.
00:18:53Matter of fact, I was just at his place yesterday having some fun with his girlfriend.
00:18:59Derek, you're such a bad boy.
00:19:02Relax.
00:19:02She'll never take your place in my heart.
00:19:05Get out of my house!
00:19:06If you don't leave, I'm calling the cops!
00:19:08Go ahead, call them.
00:19:10Once they see I'm involved, it's game over for you, bud.
00:19:13Elijah, you might as well sign the contract now.
00:19:15If Derek's in a good mood, he might even give your parents a little extra cash.
00:19:19Yes, not a bad idea.
00:19:20If you sign now, I'll fork out two million.
00:19:22How about that?
00:19:23Elijah, see how considerate Mr. Henderson is being?
00:19:25You'd have to be a fool to turn down that offer.
00:19:28This is unbelievable!
00:19:29You clowns are no better than animals!
00:19:31I'm going to bring you to justice!
00:19:33You are going to do jack shit!
00:19:35Guys, I've had it with this ungrateful bastard.
00:19:37Trash the room, now!
00:19:41Eli, maybe you should just sign it.
00:19:43That person they want you to kill is probably corrupt and evil anyway, and it'll save our family.
00:19:48I'm not doing it.
00:19:49I'll cut my own hand off before I sign that paper.
00:19:51Then, what should we do?
00:19:54Indeed, what should we do?
00:19:55You know, this lady might be past her prime, but she still has a certain charm about her.
00:20:02Tell you what, if you come over here and kiss me right here, we can forget about this contract.
00:20:07Oh, and I get to use my tongue.
00:20:11God, Derek, you really have no chill.
00:20:15Sadie, this is your last chance.
00:20:17Give Derek what he wants.
00:20:18And not only will Elijah not have to kill anyone, I won't ask you to pay me back.
00:20:22You best think long and hard.
00:20:24Come on, I'm ready for you.
00:20:27Leave my mother out of this, you filthy swine!
00:20:30Fine, let's see how much longer you can resist.
00:20:34Guys, bring the old man over here!
00:20:40Keep your hands off my dad!
00:20:44You pigs!
00:20:45Let go of my dad before I beat your asses!
00:20:50Please, stop!
00:20:51You'll hurt him, I'm begging you!
00:20:53What, you think I was joking around?
00:20:55Do what I said, and I'll let your crippled husband and your low-life son off the hook.
00:21:00All right, I'll do it.
00:21:03Mom, no!
00:21:04Don't do it!
00:21:05Mom, stop!
00:21:07You can't let them win!
00:21:13Nora!
00:21:14Have you lost your conscience?
00:21:15She's your aunt!
00:21:17Are you really just gonna stand here and watch this guy assault her?
00:21:19Please, all we share is a last name.
00:21:21If she gets assaulted, that's on you!
00:21:23If you had any status at all, no one would dare touch her.
00:21:25You're sick!
00:21:27You care more about money and power than your own kin!
00:21:30Oh, come on.
00:21:31What do I get from being your kin anyway?
00:21:33You and your parents are dead to me.
00:21:36If Derek touches my mother, I'm gonna make you all suffer!
00:21:40And just how do you plan to do that?
00:21:41I could make sweet love to your mother right in front of you,
00:21:44and there'd be nothing you could do to stop me.
00:21:47No!
00:21:53Hello?
00:21:53Is Elijah home?
00:21:56Ah, Miss Cross, what an unexpected pleasure this is!
00:21:59Mr. Sky and Mr. Lyons as well!
00:22:01On Christmas Day, nonetheless!
00:22:04Miss Cross?
00:22:05Are you the Miss Cross from Eagle Tech?
00:22:08You and these two gentlemen,
00:22:11please, you have to help my son Elijah!
00:22:14You have to save our family!
00:22:27Mrs. Cross, I'm begging you, please, help Elisha, please!
00:22:33Just calm down.
00:22:35Calm down and let's talk, okay?
00:22:37What are you looking at, old Furt?
00:22:39Crying about your problems to Miss Cross won't change anything.
00:22:41Mr. Henderson, I think you owe us an explanation.
00:22:43You just showed up at their house looking for trouble.
00:22:46It's Christmas, for Christ's sake.
00:22:49Miss Cross, what are you suggesting?
00:22:50This family owes a fat stack of cash to my girlfriend,
00:22:52and they're refusing to return it.
00:22:54I just came here to support her.
00:22:57Miss Cross, uh, Merry Christmas.
00:23:00Miss Cross, I'm Nora Green, sales manager at Eagle Solutions.
00:23:03There have been some misunderstandings between my family and Elijah's,
00:23:06and we're trying to sort things out.
00:23:08The thing is, uh, last year, my father's brother, Mark,
00:23:12needed an emergency procedure, so we lent them 100 grand.
00:23:16Fast forward to now, and not only have they still not paid us back,
00:23:19they're accusing us of extortion.
00:23:22Let's get the facts straight.
00:23:24You lent us 100 grand, and now you're asking for 500.
00:23:27How is that not extortion?
00:23:30Plus, you're trying to force me to kill somebody, which is illegal.
00:23:34What?
00:23:35This is starting to get weird.
00:23:37Miss Cross, they're the ones who owe us money.
00:23:39Let's not act like they have the moral high ground here.
00:23:42I offered them a million dollars in exchange for Elijah eliminating one of my enemies.
00:23:46He'd never run into that kind of money if it wasn't for me.
00:23:49Consider it an act of charity.
00:23:50Exactly.
00:23:51Derek's trying to do the right thing,
00:23:52but this stubborn bastard Elijah keeps rejecting the offer.
00:23:55This is an egregious offense to Derek, Eagle Tech, and everyone in our circle.
00:23:59So today, we came here to remind these ungrateful scum
00:24:03what happens when you mess with people in power.
00:24:10Bring that scroundrel over here, and get him to apologize to Miss Cross and the others.
00:24:16Enough!
00:24:16Mr. Lyons, got anything to say?
00:24:19Yeah, I never knew the son of a measly vice plate president could speak for all people in power.
00:24:24You learn something new every day.
00:24:27Hear that?
00:24:28You're a joke to us.
00:24:31Mr. Henderson, how long are you going to keep stirring shit up?
00:24:35Miss Cross, why did you just hit Derek?
00:24:37The ones you should be hitting are Elijah and...
00:24:39Quiet!
00:24:40Do you even know who you're messing with?
00:24:41Elijah's the former lead programmer at Gray Tech.
00:24:43He could pay you back tenfold if he wanted.
00:24:45And if you think you can turn him into a hitman for a million bucks,
00:24:48you're living in a fantasy land.
00:24:50But how is that possible?
00:24:51Elijah's just some community college grad.
00:24:53How could he get a high-ranking job at the world's top tech company?
00:24:56What, you think I'm lying?
00:24:57Derek, please tell me you at least knew where Elijah worked.
00:25:01Well, I...
00:25:02Why is Miss Cross siding with Elijah?
00:25:04Whatever, better just go along with it for now.
00:25:06I can always deal with Elijah later.
00:25:11You liar!
00:25:12You were just using me this whole time!
00:25:17Elijah, Mr. and Mrs. Greens,
00:25:19I sincerely apologize for my rashness today.
00:25:21Nora set a trap for me, and I fell right into it.
00:25:23I shouldn't have tried to force you to sign that contract.
00:25:25I hope you can forgive me.
00:25:31Derek, why are you...
00:25:34Why am I what?
00:25:37Nora, I can't support someone who has no respect for family
00:25:40and who tries to hurt their own cousin.
00:25:43You're heartless.
00:25:44Mrs. Cross,
00:25:46what do you suggest we do with these two snakes?
00:25:49Nora, you're morally bankrupt.
00:25:51You'll be immediately removed from your position
00:25:53and will never work for us again.
00:25:56As for your father,
00:25:57he'll be blacklisted across all Eagle companies
00:25:59and all his current projects will be cancelled at once.
00:26:03Elok, please, you and I are family.
00:26:05Tell Mrs. Cross not to fire me.
00:26:07I need this job.
00:26:08Now we're family.
00:26:09Didn't you just say that my parents and I are dead to you?
00:26:12Eli, I screwed up.
00:26:13I don't know what possessed me to say such a terrible thing.
00:26:15Let's just forget I ever said it, okay?
00:26:17Please?
00:26:18Listen, Eli, we got carried away.
00:26:19You don't need to pay us back today.
00:26:21Matter of fact, you can return the money whenever you want,
00:26:23and I won't charge interest.
00:26:26Elijah, I'll pay them back for you.
00:26:27No, Elijah, please allow me.
00:26:29I'd be happy to pay off your debt as well.
00:26:33What's going on?
00:26:34All of them are siding with Elijah?
00:26:36Isn't he just a jobless nobody now?
00:26:38This is insane.
00:26:39Elijah must be wielding some serious power behind the scenes.
00:26:42Why else would they be sucking up to him like this?
00:26:47Aunt Sadie,
00:26:49let's just call that 100 grand a gift from my dad and I.
00:26:53You don't have to pay us back.
00:26:54Just get Elijah to tell Mrs. Cross not to fire me.
00:26:58Please, I'm your niece.
00:27:05That's right, we're family.
00:27:07We know Mark has had a rough year,
00:27:09so let's just call it even.
00:27:11Covering Mark's surgery was my responsibility as his older brother.
00:27:16Eli, go on.
00:27:17You ought to put in a good word for them.
00:27:21Did you forget everything that just happened?
00:27:24If Ava and the others didn't show up,
00:27:26I'd probably be dead right now.
00:27:29And you and Dad would still be getting tortured and humiliated.
00:27:36Eli, if you just tell Mrs. Cross not to fire my dad and I,
00:27:40we'll forget about the money.
00:27:42Please, this is all I ask of you.
00:27:46I might not have a job now,
00:27:48but I still have my integrity.
00:27:50I could care less about the money.
00:27:53You've already lost my trust.
00:27:55Eli, please forgive us just this once.
00:27:57I'm begging you, it won't happen again.
00:28:00Shut up.
00:28:02If you were smart,
00:28:04you'd get out of here before Elijah loses his cool.
00:28:07Unless you enjoy embarrassing yourselves like this.
00:28:15Stop right there.
00:28:17Mr. Green isn't done with you yet.
00:28:21Mr. Green is a respected figure in the tech world.
00:28:24You don't just get a free pass to leave
00:28:26after terrorizing him and his family.
00:28:28Mr. Sky, Mr. Lyons,
00:28:30I'm deeply sorry for what I did to Elijah.
00:28:33I promised to learn from my mistakes.
00:28:37Mr. Green,
00:28:38what should we do with this pathetic fool?
00:28:44The first one was for abusing my mom.
00:28:47The second was for exiting my dad.
00:28:51And the third was for trying to make me into a hitman.
00:28:54But you and I aren't finished.
00:28:55That was just the first step of my revenge.
00:28:58Now get out.
00:29:00Elijah, you don't just hit me and get away with it.
00:29:03Next time I see you,
00:29:04you're dead.
00:29:09Let's put that mess behind us.
00:29:11I'd like to formally offer you a job at Eagle Tech.
00:29:13In fact, we'd like to make you our new lead programmer.
00:29:15So would we.
00:29:16And Lyons Tech too.
00:29:16Elijah, this is Eagle Tech's brand new employees only credit card
00:29:19with a spending limit of $100 million.
00:29:21Consider it a welcome gift from us.
00:29:23Not bad, Miss Cross.
00:29:24$100 million is hard to top.
00:29:26But Mr. Green, Sky Tech is no slouch either.
00:29:27If you agree to my offer,
00:29:28I'll give you a $150 million hiring bonus.
00:29:30Make no mistake, Mr. Green.
00:29:31Lyons Tech would be just as honored to have you.
00:29:32I'll have $200 million in your pocket by the end of the day.
00:29:35Listen, I'm humbled by your generosity,
00:29:36and I'm very grateful for your help today.
00:29:38But I really can't accept all that money.
00:29:40Elijah, I know your father's health costs are piling up.
00:29:43Use this to cover them.
00:29:44You can give it back when your finances are more stabled.
00:29:47I...
00:29:47I guess I'll take it then.
00:29:50Thanks, Ava.
00:29:51So, that means you accept my offer, right?
00:29:53You'll join Eagle Tech?
00:29:54Damn.
00:29:54Should have started recruiting him sooner.
00:29:56I know.
00:29:57Guess she beat us to it.
00:29:58Mr. Sky, Mr. Lyons,
00:30:00I won't forget your kindness.
00:30:01We won't be working together now,
00:30:02but I do hope our paths cross in the future.
00:30:04That's the way you feel?
00:30:05Then I didn't come here for nothing.
00:30:06Thank you, Mr. Green.
00:30:07Yes, thank you, Mr. Green.
00:30:08I'll arrange a welcome banquet for you
00:30:10at the Imperial Hotel this evening.
00:30:12Ava, you've been very good to me,
00:30:13but a banquet would be a bit much.
00:30:15No, I'm not changing my mind.
00:30:16I want the whole world to know
00:30:18that Elijah Green is Eagle Tech's new lead programmer.
00:30:23All right, fine.
00:30:24But nothing too fancy, all right?
00:30:25Deal.
00:30:26It'll be simple but elegant.
00:30:27You're gonna love it.
00:30:28Then it's a plan.
00:30:29Well, do you have anything else going on today?
00:30:32It's my first time home in three years.
00:30:34I just want to spend time at home with my parents.
00:30:36Eli, why don't we pay a visit
00:30:38to my side of the family today?
00:30:39Grandpa Jim is always talking about you these days,
00:30:41and who knows when you'll be back next.
00:30:43Don't we usually visit them on the day after Christmas?
00:30:45Yes, but yesterday your Uncle Frank told me
00:30:47that all your aunts are visiting as well.
00:30:49He said that if you came back,
00:30:50we should get together today.
00:30:51Nora, I'm sorry for how I acted earlier.
00:30:54I was just thinking on the fly and improvising.
00:30:57Derek, you have to help.
00:30:58I can't lose that job.
00:30:59It means everything to me.
00:31:01Derek!
00:31:02My family's having a Christmas party later.
00:31:04You should come.
00:31:04Everyone wants to see you.
00:31:05Of course, I'll be there.
00:31:07Was that the latest side-sheet
00:31:09trying to steal you away from me?
00:31:10Just a friend inviting me to her Christmas gathering.
00:31:13Don't worry, Nora.
00:31:14I'll find a way to get you back
00:31:15your sales manager position.
00:31:17Ava Cross, you stood up for Elijah,
00:31:19and now you'll go down with him too.
00:31:25Long time no see, everybody.
00:31:27Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
00:31:29Wow, look who it is.
00:31:31How long has it been?
00:31:32We thought you'd forgotten about us.
00:31:36What flavor are those?
00:31:37Horse shit?
00:31:39Seriously, Eli, that's the best you can do
00:31:40after not showing up for three years?
00:31:42Should have saved your stupid cookies for Santa.
00:31:44I have a bird feeder in my yard.
00:31:45Maybe I'll crumble a few of them up
00:31:47to feed to the crows.
00:31:50As for the rest,
00:31:51they'll make a nice meal
00:31:52for some homeless guy on the street.
00:31:53These are for Grandpa Jim,
00:31:54so let's let him be the judge.
00:31:57Why don't we get him to come out and try more?
00:32:03Of course you offer them to the old man
00:32:05who's lost all his taste bubs.
00:32:07Plus, why take a bite
00:32:08when we can smell the stench from over here?
00:32:10Man, bringing homemade cookies
00:32:12because you're short on cash is one thing,
00:32:13but when you do that
00:32:14and pretend to make a whole grand entrance,
00:32:16you look pretty sad.
00:32:18See how stale they look?
00:32:20Probably weeks old already.
00:32:21He's trying to give Grandpa Jim diarrhea.
00:32:23Fine, you can throw them out.
00:32:25Let's see how Grandpa Jim reacts
00:32:27when he hears you dumped
00:32:28his expensive Christmas gift in the trap.
00:32:30Enough games, Eli.
00:32:32Shut up and stop playing dumb.
00:32:34Unbelievable.
00:32:35This boy is an embarrassment
00:32:36to the whole family.
00:32:40Someone help.
00:32:41No, I lost again.
00:32:43Gabe, where are your manners?
00:32:44Not even going to say hello?
00:32:45Hello, this is your Aunt Sadie,
00:32:47your Uncle Mark,
00:32:47and your cousin Elijah.
00:32:49Are you that loser cousin
00:32:51my parents are always talking about?
00:32:58Merry Christmas!
00:32:59So, where's my present?
00:33:02Sorry, I came here in a rush,
00:33:04so I couldn't bring gifts for everyone.
00:33:06How about I get an App Store gift card
00:33:08and send it to you later?
00:33:09You're fooling no one, Eli.
00:33:11If you're broke, just say it
00:33:13instead of making empty promises to a kid.
00:33:15Yeah, no one wants a $5 gift card
00:33:17from you anyway.
00:33:19My other cousins gave me super cool gifts.
00:33:22You're the only stingy one.
00:33:24Just because I didn't bring gifts
00:33:25doesn't mean I'm broke.
00:33:28I'll go to the bank later today
00:33:29and withdraw 50 grand, all for you.
00:33:31Oh, and I see you're a gamer.
00:33:33We can stop by the mall
00:33:34and I'll get you a laptop.
00:33:35Sweet!
00:33:36Thanks, cuz!
00:33:37You're the best!
00:33:41Nice try, Eli.
00:33:42Eagle Tech doesn't even make credit cards.
00:33:44Monopoly money is probably worth more than this shit.
00:33:48Typical Eli.
00:33:49Pulling a dumb trick
00:33:50and thinking we'll fall for it.
00:33:55First it was the month-old cookies,
00:33:57now it's a fake credit card.

00:39:18eli we're family you don't need to lie to us about your resume
00:39:21eagle tech employees come from ivy league schools not community colleges

00:43:43i was just about to throw them out let me try one
00:43:57i know this taste these aren't just any gingerbread cookies they're made with a rare highly refined
00:44:03molasses straight from the jungles of south america cookies like these aren't cheap to make
00:44:09highly refined molasses really and you almost threw them out
00:44:17grandpa you must be confused even if they did taste good where would eli get such rare ingredients
00:44:24what you think i'm wrong you think the old man's got dementia the taste is unmistakable how many
00:44:29batches did he bring a whole bowl's full there were dozens of them i threw most of them out already
00:44:34though
00:44:35you threw the others out sure did we've been eating christmas cookies all week everyone's sick of them
00:44:42you morons a five gallon tub of that molasses just sold at an auction for over a million dollars
00:44:50those cookies must have been worth at least a hundred grand yeah i remember my dad saying something about
00:44:55that auction a hundred grand all down the drain eli i didn't know that molasses was so expensive
00:45:02why didn't you tell them i tried but they wouldn't listen what did i do to get stuck in a
00:45:09family full
00:45:10of idiots those cookies were world-class and you wasted all of them grandpa don't make such a mess i
00:45:17spent hours cleaning up before the party these other ones were made with an extra rare variety of
00:45:22ceylon cinnamon that's even more expensive than the molasses one small bag of this goes for at least 300
00:45:26grand you're embossals all of you oh eli if you use such rare ingredients in these cookies you
00:45:38shouldn't have let us throw them out or were you just trying to make us look bad i tried but
00:45:42you all
00:45:43just said they looked stale and that i was trying to give grandpa jim diarrhea
00:45:47and if i recall correctly you said i was a stain on the family name
00:45:52eli you're an unemployed loser so how did you get your hands on such precious ingredients
00:45:56be honest you stole them right i got them as a gift come on we're not that stupid why would
00:46:01anybody waste such expensive gifts on a nobody like you yeah you probably stole them along with
00:46:06that credit card of yours it's disgusting thinking we have a petty thief in the green family
00:46:12that's right he stole everything george throwing away my cookies is one thing but accusing me of
00:46:17theft is crossing the line just own up to your mistake and drop i saw a bag of cinnamon and
00:46:21a jar
00:46:21of molasses in miss cross's office at the eagle solutions headquarters she said she was giving them
00:46:25to a distinguished employee yet somehow they showed up inside your cookies this proves you stole them
00:46:30did you consider that maybe they were given to me by mrs cross
00:46:37as if you'd ever be worthy of a gift from ava cross fine you don't have to believe me but
00:46:43i know i'm in
00:46:43the right what if it really was a gift from miss cross what if eli's telling the truth for once
00:46:52give me an update all the pieces are in place let me check with someone on the ground
00:47:00how are things going i'm working on it you mean it's not finished i expect to see some results soon
00:47:06i had him right where i wanted him until ava cross showed up
00:47:10ava cross president of eagle solutions yeah her ma'am there's been a little hiccup
00:47:16eagle solutions president ava cross has interfered with our plan
00:47:20is ava cross trying to make an enemy of me not just you i'm afraid all of gray tech it
00:47:25seems she
00:47:25wants to violate our blacklist order and hire mr green so that eagle tech can compete with us
00:47:29she can't get away with this have someone keep watch on ava cross we can't have her meeting up with
00:47:35mr
00:47:35greener again yes ma'am keep an eye on ava cross and make sure she doesn't have any contact with
00:47:42green
00:47:47george if miss cross accuses elijah of stealing from her the consequences will be far-reaching
00:47:52you should be careful yes you're right if miss cross finds out what elijah did our whole family's
00:47:58done for tony your head of security at eagle solutions you have to detain elijah and hand
00:48:02him over for mrs cross to deal with that's the only way she'll forgive us yes that's the only
00:48:06way guards you can't just arrest him that's illegal what's illegal about arresting a thief guys take
00:48:18him away don't touch him miss cross gave us that stuff derek was there you're funny if i was there
00:48:27the only thing i would have seen is you stealing from her tony miss cross is a busy woman she
00:48:32doesn't
00:48:33have time to handle trivial things like this it's fine i'll interrogate him on my own and if he doesn't
00:48:38confess i'll leave him there forever follow through on this and you'll have a promotion waiting for you
00:48:45i hope you're right take eli to the interrogation room tony don't do this derek can't be trusted this
00:48:51morning he came to our house and tried to force eli to murder one of his enemies please are you
00:48:57stupid derek doesn't have enemies everybody loves him i'm telling the truth you can call mrs cross and

00:52:13definitely here today he brought two excellent batches of cookies one made with an expensive
00:52:19variety of molasses and the other with an extremely rare ceylon cinnamon just when tony was about
