Script[]
| Blond Worker | C'mon, how bad can it be? |
| Mr. James | It's due tomorrow. |
| Blond Worker | Jesus, James. You had a month to put this report together. |
| Mr. James | I know. I know! |
| Blond Worker | Well, my advice to you is to stop talking to me and put something togehter |
| Mr. James | I know. |
| Blond Worker | This is the kind of thing that people get fired for. |
| Mr. James | I know! |
| Blond Worker | Especially after Warbot dropped the Yutani Account. |
| Mr. James | You're not helping! |
| Later… | |
| James works frantically to put the report together as employees start leaving the office. Day turns to night, and he falls asleep. | |
| Mr. James | ZZZ |
| However, it is soon daytime. | |
| Secretary | Mr. James? Mr. Ferguson will see you now. |
| Mr. James | Wh-what? Dammit, it's morning! |
| Mr. James | The report, the report. Where the hell is it?! |
| Mr. James | Uh, yes. I'll be right there. I'm just, uh, y'know, printing it out right now. We were out of ink and-- |
| Secretary | Mr. Ferguson already has your report. |
| Mr. James | I must have…Did I finish it? Uh, yes. I'll be right there! |
| James tidies himself up in the bathroom. | |
| Mr. Ferguson | Please, sit down. |
| Mr. James | Thank you, Mr. Ferguson. |
| Mr. Ferguson | I'd like to talk about this report. |
| Mr. Ferguson | (Displaying a bunch of crumpled papers) Can you explain this to me? |
| James looks crestfallen. | |
| Mr. Ferguson | I'm curious, Mr. James, what were we paying you to do for this past month? |
| Mr. James | I, I, I… |
| Mr. Ferguson | I would have rather you turned nothing in at all! |
| Mr. Ferguson | We expect better out of our employees, Mr. James. And I expect you to clean out your desk. You're fired. |
| Mr. James is escorted out of Weyland Accounting by a security guard as other workers look in awe. He then sits on a bus stop in the rain. A newspaper is later shown, claiming that Mr. James, his wife, and his two children are dead from a murder-suicide. Next, Warbot is shown reading the paper. | |
| Earlier… | |
| Warbot watches the earlier conversation. | |
| Blond Worker | Especially after Warbot dropped the Yutani Account. |
| Mr. James | You're not helping! |
| Then… | |
| Warbot looks on at Mr. James as he sleeps. | |
| Mr. James | ZZZ |
| Warbot stares at Mr. James's report, and then picks it up, crushing it due to his heavy grabber-arm. He attempts to work on the rest of it and then rams it to the inbox of Mr. Ferguson by morning. | |
| Cut back to Warbot at home. He takes the newspaper and throws it on his "child". | |
| Warbot's Child | DAD…DYYYYY… |
| Warbot then looks on silently. | |
