    Ah that's a good observation. That makes sense. The question would be in the Nucleus guys would let Richard and Big Head come in I guess.

    Not sure if I want a Big Head and Richard team up. Big Head keeps failing his way to more and more success and Richard keeps getting hit with setback after setback. I'm not ready for either of those things to change

    You should try Curb Your Enthusiasm. Things typically work out for the main character

    I always feel like I'm being constantly punched in the dick while watching this show, but I have come to the realization that it's actually just one never ending punch to the dick.

    lmfao at Jared's chain joke at the end. Richard's "what the fuck?" was so sincere

    I agree with most here, i hate/love the show..... i am sad they got caught so quickly, because I was thinking of how many jokes they could do with them trying to hide it all season....

    Jared has been killing it this season, but goddamn he was fire in this episode.

    "It's a 2001 casino heist film starring Julia Roberts", pouring the liqour back into the bottle, Django, Cypress Halal, and then that giant one at the end.

    This season has been hilarious (Not to say the last haven't, but holy shit)

    You guys are entirely missing the point that everything in this episode is their Meinertzhagen's Haversack; they purposely leaked Skunkworks to Carla and brought the plans to work so they would be seen. That folder is literally his haversack and is the perfect cover for them to actually work on their platform.

    I have worked at an MNC and had to do database work with IT so I've scratched the surface of this.

    The main characters aren't really accurate representations of engineers (for obvious reasons, it's more entertaining with them all being so awkward), but almost everything else in the show is a pretty accurate rendition of the area and how those businesses work.

    There's obviously some theatrical flair to the whole proceedings, but in general it's very close to how life in Palo Alto is.

    wait wut. so you're saying what Richard dropped (and leaked to Carla) isn't what they are actually trying to make? how would leaking one thing that they aren't supposed to make, make it easier to create another thing that they aren't supposed to make?

    I might be misunderstanding what a Meinertzhagen's Haversack is - based on a wiki blurb it's an intentional "leak" of some sort of fake plans

    It would throw the CEO off the scent of their actual plan to do it by prematurely "exposing" it. That's brilliant.
