00:00This year's Math Olympiad.
00:02Only one candidate will make it to national level.
00:05All done.
00:06Xosha Sanchez.
00:08Advisor, Marvel Harmon.
00:10You should be honored that I'm using your work to climb to the top.
00:14I must win this contest.
00:15Only then will I prove that Becky Cohen stole mom's research.
00:19I'll be head judge at today's contest.
00:21What's a woman doing going to school anyway?
00:24She should just drop out.
00:25Did someone help you cheat?
00:27Is it your mentor?
00:28Leave my daughter out of this!
00:30And when I beat you, Becky Cain, you will give back what you owe my mother.
00:34Difficulty increased by 100 times.
00:36She can't actually be solving it.
00:38You are my greatest pride.
00:40And our nation's greatest hope.
00:42Make all the women in tech proud!
00:44Go Xosha!
00:45Xosha! Xosha! Xosha! Xosha! Xosha! Xosha!
00:49I will make math history and prove that you're a cheat.
00:52That the winner of this year's Math Olympiad is...
00:58It's the state prelims for this year's Math Olympiad.
01:08Only one candidate will make it to national level. Who will it be?
01:12The last question on the test this year is of the utmost difficulty.
01:16An unsolvable mathematical model could change microchip technology forever.
01:22No student has yet to attempt or even turn in their tests. It is that hard.
01:28Down to the last minute. Can no one really solve this problem?
01:33I told you, Reeds, these are high schoolers.
01:35They're not going to be able to solve a problem that baffles the entire microchip industry.
01:39We are falling behind in microchip tech and I am tired of outsourcing to other countries.
01:44That is exactly why we need to give Youngblood a chance.
01:47And your answer is what? These teenagers?
01:49And as you well know, Apollo Tech is number one in tech in the United States.
01:53I can't see any of these kids being able to solve this.
02:00All done.
02:09Zosia Sanchez is the first to finish.
02:14No, you're the girl from West Virginia, right?
02:16The state with all the dumb hillbillies?
02:19You sure you don't want to double check your answers?
02:23There's no need for that.
02:24She says she's done, just take it.
02:27What can a farm Barbie amount to anyway?
02:30I bet her answer sheet is blank.
02:32The test questions were indeed beyond the level of this state competition,
02:36but if I were you, I would log my answers in immediately.
02:39It might just change the trajectory of our future.
02:44Okay.
02:45What a joke.
02:47Not even Apollo tech researchers can solve this math model.
02:51How could she?
02:53Must have been a blank test.
02:58Wait.
02:59She solved it.
03:03She solved it.
03:04Quick, put it in the system.
03:07Microchip mathematical model.
03:09Answer submitted.
03:10Analyzing.
03:11Okay.
03:12Someone handed in their answer.
03:13Hold on.
03:14No one's been able to solve this.
03:16Even if somebody handed in an answer,
03:18it's probably just a blind guess.
03:19I give you a 99.9% chance that this answer is wrong.
03:23Analysis complete.
03:25Solution correct.
03:27Correct.
03:29We found the genius we've been looking for.
03:32He could save the microchip industry.
03:33He could save the entire mathematical world.
03:35Come on, quick.
03:36Look him up.
03:37Find out what Ivy League college he goes to.
03:41It's a girl.
03:42No.
03:45No.
03:46There's no way.
03:47This is just a hillbilly girl.
03:48There's no way she solved this math problem.
03:50It doesn't matter where she's from.
03:52She can be the key to the next breakthrough in our technology.
03:55We must find her.
03:57Now.
03:58Mom!
03:59Mom!
04:00I did it!
04:01I actually did it!
04:03The last question the math Olympiad, I solved it!
04:06You mean the microchip modeling problem that nobody solved for decades?
04:12Oh, Sosha!
04:16I'm so proud of you!
04:18Here are the shoes I mended.
04:24Mom, you're the best!
04:28It's all thanks to you for taking me under your wings and passing down your math knowledge to me.
04:33Sosha, you are my only family.
04:35Of course I'd do anything for you.
04:39I knew you would never turn into that horrible Becky Kane.
04:43You mean your former protege?
04:45The youngest math professor at Princeton?
04:49Yes.
04:55Yes!
04:57I've succeeded!
05:01Professor, is this your new microchip math model?
05:03Yes!
05:06Well, this advances our technology by at least a decade.
05:09Whoever has this will surely win the Nobel Prize.
05:14In three days, I will hold a conference announcing to the world that we no longer need to rely on foreign suppliers for the best microchips.
05:22This changes everything!
05:34Hello everyone!
05:35I am proud to announce my latest mathematical discovery.
05:40I am confident that it will advance microchip technology in stride.
05:45Stop!
05:47I call fraud.
05:49Margaret Harman stole my research results.
05:58It can't be!
05:59Margaret Harman is well respected in Silicon Valley.
06:01Her work has been monumental.
06:04Only one of a few women.
06:06Becky, you're my student. How can you accuse me of this?
06:10This is my graduate thesis.
06:12It has been certified by five academic journals.
06:16No!
06:18You stole and patented my work before I could?
06:22It's my work. Of course I can patent it.
06:25I have a witness too.
06:26Yes.
06:28I am the director of science and technology.
06:31And I attest, Miss Becky Cain did submit her thesis to me three days ago.
06:36So it's true?
06:38Margaret Harman stole her students' work!
06:41You're stripped of your position, Harman.
06:43No.
06:45No, no, no, no, no. I, I, I...
06:47This is my work. I didn't...
06:52You don't belong in the math hall of fame anymore.
06:55I do.
06:56I do.
06:57No!
07:03This is, this is, this is my work.
07:06I didn't plagiarize anything. This is...
07:08Security!
07:09Throw her out.
07:10It's my life. It's my work. It's...
07:12No!
07:13Please, I didn't plagiarize anything.
07:16It's mine.
07:18Oh, no. I don't understand. Please.
07:22No, you don't understand.
07:23Yes!
07:30You should be honored that I'm using your work to climb to the top.
07:34I'm inheriting your math legacy, Professor.
07:38No, it's my life's work.
07:44Oh, God.
07:46Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
07:53Oh, no.
07:54Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh...
08:01Look, I'm done.
08:04Oh, my God.
08:05Oh, boy.
08:07Oh, my God.
08:08I'm...
08:10Oh, my God.
08:11A SWEET.
08:13Sine, cosine, cosine, sine, cosine, cosine, cosine, sine, sine!
08:28Do you like math?
08:31Yep.
08:32Have no ma, no pa, but I found this math textbook in the trash.
08:38It's the one thing none of the bullies will take away from me.
08:43Math is all I have, too.
08:46What's your name, little one?
08:50My name's Zosha.
08:52Zosha?
08:55How about you and me become a family from now on?
09:04If it wasn't for you, I probably would have died on the streets.
09:07After the first round of the exam, Zosha Sanchez is seen in first place for National Monthly.
09:13Oh, Zosha.
09:16Oh, I'm so proud of you.
09:20Zosha Sanchez is seen in first place for National Monthly.
09:23It's Zosha Sanchez from West Virginia.
09:29What is this, a tractor princess competition now?
09:33Advisor Margaret Harmon.
09:35That old hag again?
09:38What if this hillbilly brat really is a math genius?
09:42They'll prove that I'm really an idiot and take away my Nobel Prize.
09:45I can't let that happen.
09:51Yes.
09:52Tell the press that Zosha Sanchez cheated at the competition.
10:05The results of the math Olympiad are being contested.
10:07They say you cheated, Zosha Sanchez.
10:09Are you going to accept the rematch?
10:11Did you cheat?
10:12Leave my daughter alone.
10:13Mom, don't worry.
10:15I got this.
10:17I'm going to prove to the world what a real math genius looks like and prove that Becky
10:22Kane is the real cheat.
10:28Damn it.
10:29Academics are questioning the results.
10:32They want to know how a small-town girl from the middle of nowhere finished first.
10:35They think we helped her cheat.
10:37They want a rematch.
10:39Then let's host a rematch.
10:40We can live stream the entire thing.
10:44We can even have in-person judges present.
10:52I'll be a judge for the rematch.
10:55Becky Kane?
10:55The youngest Nobel Prize winner in mathematics.
11:00Becky Kane, it's an honor.
11:03Okay, then.
11:04Looks like it's settled.
11:06We'll host a rematch.
11:07Becky, you'll be our head judge.
11:09Let's see if Zosha Sanchez really is a genius.
11:11You can do this, Zosha.
11:21I believe in you.
11:26Long time no see, my dear professor.
11:30Oh.
11:31Oh, what is that stench?
11:33It's you.
11:35It's you.
11:36You.
11:36Hey, hey, hey, hey, ma.
11:38Mom, mom, be careful of your heart.
11:43And you're that low-down fraud that nixed my mother's research.
11:46The one who committed plagiarism is the old hag you're holding up.
11:50I hear you're a stinky janitor at some backwater high school now, Margaret.
11:56How pathetic.
11:57What matters is what's in our heads and our hearts.
12:01And yours is black.
12:03A farm girl and a janitor.
12:06What a pair.
12:08I can't tell who's going to embarrass who more.
12:11Ignore her mom.
12:12She's incapable of distinguishing between real intellect and memorize Elita's talking points.
12:17Isn't that right, Miss Overpriced Diploma?
12:20You could try to talk smart.
12:22But the whole world believes Margaret is the one who stole my research.
12:26I will prove her innocent.
12:28Then they'll think you're a cheat, too.
12:31Even if you're really a genius, no one is going to believe you.
12:34I have a Nobel Prize.
12:36And you're still wearing donation rags from Goodwill.
12:40You should quit while you still can.
12:43She's right.
12:45So, Sean, I'm just going to drag you down so you...
12:48No, no, no, mom.
12:49I want you to witness me taking back everything that belongs to you.
12:54Oh!
12:55I forgot to mention.
12:57I'll be head judge at today's contest.
13:01I'm so sure she's going to rig the contest against you.
13:06I should have come here with you.
13:09I'm just going to drag you down.
13:12They all think I'm a fraud.
13:17Hey, mom.
13:18You're not.
13:22I must win this contest.
13:24Only then will I prove that Becky Cain stole mom's research
13:27and will be able to afford mom's surgery.
13:30Welcome to the National Math Olympiad.
13:33The judges we have here today are esteemed professors
13:36from top Ivy League universities,
13:38including the one and only Professor Becky Cain,
13:41Nobel Prize winner for her work on microchip technology 10 years ago.
13:46I look better in person, don't I?
13:48The contest begins.
13:50Let's invite the first two contestants up.
13:52Incorrect.
13:53Incorrect.
13:54Incorrect.
13:54Incorrect.
13:54Incorrect.
13:58Get off the stage!
14:14These are our nation's future experts.
14:17I'm so disappointed.
14:18Don't worry, Professor Cain.
14:21There's one more.
14:22The answer's infinity.
14:25There's one more.
14:27You mean that farm Barbie from Hillbilly Town?
14:29The one who's going to a community college?
14:31What's a girl doing in math anyway?
14:33I mean, is the circumference of her breasts bigger than the pig she feeds?
14:37That's the only number I care about.
14:39Margaret Harmon and Zosha Sanchez?
14:42You're about to fall into my trap.
14:45I'll make sure you both never return to the arenas of math and science.
14:49Please welcome the math genius from West Virginia, Zosha Sanchez.
14:58Enjoy the show.
14:59I will show the world what small-town girls are made of.
15:19I don't care about my dreams anymore.
15:27I only care about your future, Zosha.
15:33That's your so-called genius?
15:36Look at her shoes.
15:37She belongs at a swamp, not at a national contest.
15:40I checked her SAT score.
15:43It's just 584 out of 800.
15:46That's not genius at all.
15:48Oh, that is a C-.
15:49I only want C's when it's a cup size.
15:52Whack, these are even better.
15:57Poor can only attend community college because they're morons.
16:01Just give up and go back to milking cow boobs.
16:04What a loser.
16:06She can't even get to the real university.
16:08Poor people don't have brainy jeans.
16:12They're meant to work on farms and wear rags like hers forever.
16:17The bottom brands of the society should stay at the bottom.
16:21Don't bring your cow downstage here.
16:23I told you, Zosha.
16:25You're too dumb and poor to compete on this stage.
16:29You can't even get into the Ivy League like me.
16:32I don't need to buy my way to prestige when I have the brains.
16:38I don't need to buy my way to prestige when I have the brains.
16:41I'd rather spend the money on mom's heart surgery.
16:44What's a woman doing going to school anyway?
16:46She should just drop out, marry her hillbilly cousin,
16:49pop out seven kids like the rest of her town.
16:52You should say that to the woman sitting next to you.
16:55Professor Becky Cain is an exception.
16:58She has a Nobel Prize.
16:59Ah, the double standards you so-called elitist academics hold.
17:06I'm so happy I'm not a part of your group.
17:07I am just here to win the prize money to take care of my mom.
17:11Okay, don't try distracting us, Zosha Sanchez.
17:15Explain.
17:16Someone with low scores like that could have never solved this math problem.
17:20Did someone help you cheat?
17:22Is it your mentor?
17:23No, they're going to attack her because of me.
17:33If you're so curious about my test scores,
17:35you should check out my entire high school record.
17:38I get exactly 73% on everything.
17:48Zosha, I heard your mother's ill and you need money.
17:52What do you want?
17:54I could help you with the money,
17:56but you can't score higher than me on anything.
18:00I want to be valedictorian.
18:02That money can really help mom.
18:06It's a deal.
18:07How about I score exactly 73% on everything
18:10and 584 on the SATs?
18:14Fine.
18:14I get exactly 73% on everything.
18:26Pull up her school records.
18:30Every test score,
18:32every assignment,
18:34everything is exactly 73%.
18:36Is she manipulating her scores?
18:40I've never seen such precise scoring before.
18:44She must be a real genius to do that.
18:50Dammit, she's showing off her smarts.
18:52I can't let anyone think she's smarter than me.
18:54Let me show you what real skill is.
18:57And I don't need to cheat like you to do it, Becky Kane.
18:59Did she just accuse Professor King of cheating?
19:09We weren't mentored by the same teacher for nothing.
19:11Wait, she's your underclassman?
19:16Not only is she my underclassman,
19:19but our mentor is here too.
19:21Is that...
19:22That's Margaret Harmon.
19:26Becky's right.
19:27Everyone's going to attack Zosia because of me.
19:30That's right.
19:31Not only is Margaret Harmon
19:33the one who taught me all of my math,
19:36but she saved me from my orphan life.
19:43I love it.
19:47She is my mother.
19:49Your adoptive mother is the fraud
19:52who was stripped of all of her honors
19:54for plagiarizing Dr. Kane's thesis?
19:56Like mother, like daughter.
19:58It's like I was saying.
20:00Women should just stay home,
20:01popping out babies, making sandwiches.
20:04That's why they need to cheat to get ahead.
20:06How dare she show her face again?
20:08Absolutely detestable.
20:10What an embarrassment.
20:12Get her off the stage!
20:15Leave my daughter out of this!
20:19Leave my daughter out of this.
20:21Hello again, Professor.
20:24I'm surprised you'd be arrogant enough to come back.
20:27And this time,
20:28to help your trailer trash daughter cheat.
20:31I didn't cheat.
20:33And I'm not here to help anyone cheat either.
20:36Drop the act!
20:37We all know how you stole my research
20:40trying to win a Nobel Prize.
20:43And now you're helping your daughter cheat
20:44after you've done it once already.
20:46You have no shame.
20:48You're both frauds and you will be punished.
20:53Wait.
20:54Xosha Sanchez's mentor is Margaret Harmon?
20:56The once-renowned mathematician,
20:58the computer scientist.
20:59I remember her previous work,
21:01a greatly advanced microchip technology before.
21:03With her abilities,
21:05I wouldn't be surprised if she helped Xosha cheat
21:07to solve the supposedly unsolvable math problem.
21:11So we've been fooled.
21:14Xosha Sanchez really isn't a genius, huh?
21:16You're both frauds and you will be punished.
21:22It's just us, all right?
21:24You'll be okay.
21:25Okay.
21:26I'm okay.
21:28Okay.
21:29No wonder she was able to solve
21:37this impossible math problem.
21:40She cheated.
21:41Shame on you!
21:42We don't want them here!
21:44Drop out now!
21:46Drop out!
21:47Drop out!
21:48Drop out!
21:48Drop out!
21:49Drop out!
21:50Drop out!
21:51Oh, isn't this scene familiar?
21:54Drop out!
21:55Drop out!
21:55Morgan Harmon is a fraud!
21:58She stole her students' work!
22:01Ah!
22:04Poor girl can't even prove
22:05that she deserves to go to a real university.
22:08Yeah, farmhouse brat!
22:09Run back to the hills!
22:10Your hillbillies don't deserve to stand where we stand!
22:13As head of the math department at CalSTEM, I represent all of the contestants.
22:21We hereby call for Xosha Sanchez to drop out!
22:27You may be the best in a trailer park, but even the dumbest of us Ivy Leagues are leagues
22:33above you.
22:34If we can't solve it, there's no way she could have.
22:37It's unfair that a soft story cheated at the National Math Olympiad.
22:40She couldn't even get here on Diversity Acceptance.
22:43She had to cheat her way here.
22:45You're all so sore for losing to someone like me.
22:50You cheat!
22:54You may dress nicer, but you all have no class.
22:57Cheater!
22:58Cheater!
22:59Cheater!
22:59Cheater!
23:00Cheater!
23:01Cheater!
23:01Cheater!
23:02Cheater!
23:02Cheater!
23:03Cheater!
23:03Cheater!
23:04Cheater!
23:04Cheater!
23:05Cheater!
23:06Cheater!
23:06Cheater!
23:07Cheater!
23:07Cheater!
23:08I'm not interested in holding rank amongst you superficial brand lovers, but I won't
23:13let you call my mom a fraud.
23:16So watch this, Becky Cain.
23:18Systems activate unsolvable math problem number two.
23:22Microchip technology's three hardest math problems.
23:25Question hash two.
23:26Difficulty increased by 100 times.
23:28Let's make a bet.
23:30Let's see who can solve the next unsolvable math problem.
23:33Fair and square.
23:34And when I beat you, Becky Cain, you will give back what you owe my mother, her Nobel Prize
23:42in all of her research funding.
23:44I think that's a great idea.
23:45We can watch the great Professor Cain Atwood.
23:47True.
23:48You haven't published in 10 years.
23:50Winning against this brat on national television would make for a great comeback.
23:55I can't let everyone realize I'm actually just a rich idiot.
23:59I know you're both jealous.
24:02Because Margaret's portrait was replaced with mine in the math hall of fame.
24:05But how could I lower myself to compete against the likes of you?
24:09True.
24:09You know, Becky is much too important for this.
24:12Yeah, we'll see if you can even solve the problem first.
24:15But if you can't...
24:16Do you even know what you're talking about?
24:41You know that male mathematicians have struggled with these equations.
24:46Phrases!
24:47Each problem is significantly more difficult than the last.
24:50The first problem took Ivy League math professors decades to solve.
24:54The second problem would have taken Einstein centuries.
24:57Precisely.
24:58If the first problem you solve was basic mode, then the second problem is god cheer.
25:03It's 100 times more difficult than the first problem.
25:05How can a girl handle that?
25:07Our rivals across the sea just recently solved the second problem.
25:12So how do you, a high schooler with no money and no resources, solve it?
25:17Xosha Sanchez.
25:19You really think someone dressed like you can solve this?
25:22And your name will go down in history?
25:25That's what she gets for punching higher than her weight.
25:29Go back to being a clown at your town roadshow.
25:32You know, I don't care about being in any hall of fame.
25:34But my abilities aren't for a cheat like you to decide.
25:38How dare you call me a cheat?
25:39You know, you'd do anything for fame and glory.
25:42But I would never sink down to your level.
25:45You don't even have the brains to know whether I'm correct or not.
25:49I am here thanks to my mother.
25:51So why don't we bring out the second math problem?
25:54That might be against the rules.
25:55Let her have it.
25:57I want to watch your fail in front of everyone.
25:58Here's your second problem, Xosha.
26:02And the second problem is strong Goldbach's conjecture.
26:08This problem requires expertise in number theory, topology, and mathematical modeling to solve.
26:13There is no way she can solve it.
26:16Weak Goldbach's conjecture wasn't solved until 2013.
26:20Goldbach came up with it in 1742.
26:23Strong Goldbach's conjecture remains unsolved even today.
26:27It took the world 300 years just to solve the easy version of this.
26:31Yes.
26:31Now, if this can be proven, it will change computer science and cryptology forever.
26:36Xosha Sanchez, you can still give up now.
26:39You just have to admit on national television that you're a fraud and apologize to me.
26:45I wouldn't be so quick to your own demise, Professor.
26:49I will soon be the only person to solve Goldbach's conjecture.
26:53I will make math history and prove that you're a cheat.
27:04Oh, you've got nothing on me.
27:06But when you fail, just remember, you brought this upon yourself.
27:12Stupid girl.
27:13This problem is impossible.
27:15I'll have you and your precious mother exiled from math forever.
27:21Can Xosha really solve this?
27:23We both tried proving strong Goldbach's conjecture.
27:26I mean, even with the help of nationally recognized mathematicians, I don't know about this one.
27:29This might be, um, hopeless.
27:32Wait!
27:33She's working!
27:34She's so dumb, she's falling asleep!
27:55No wonder she was able to solve this impossible math problem.
27:59She cheated!
28:00Margaret, your student is just as arrogant as you are, claiming she can prove strong Goldbach's conjecture when no one's ever done it before.
28:15It's okay, Xosha.
28:17Strong Goldbach's conjecture is nearly impossible.
28:20You don't have to force yourself from me.
28:22Xosha Sanchez, drop out and leave if you're not going to solve anything.
28:26We're not here for some clown show.
28:28Go back to your farm and hump your bull.
28:32I'd pay to see that.
28:34The real show starts now.
28:36Now.
28:40Damn it!
28:54She can't actually be solving it, right?
28:58She's actually solving it.
28:59No, no, it can't be, it can't be.
29:01No one's solved this in, like, 300 years.
29:03Don't let her fool you.
29:04She's just writing gibberish on screen.
29:07Stop embarrassing yourself, Sanchez.
29:09We can all see through your scam act.
29:12Fraud is a serious criminal offense.
29:15I'll have you arrested.
29:16You know, I agree with you, Professor Kane.
29:19Frauds like you who stole my mother's research and published it as their own,
29:23that is indeed a crime.
29:25I dare you to call the police because the one who should be arrested is you.
29:29Okay, who said anything about calling the police?
29:31I'm just giving you a chance to hurry up.
29:34You all doubt me.
29:35My test scores, my grades.
29:37You think that my mom helped me cheat.
29:39But Margaret Harmon is the one who adopted me.
29:43She taught me how to be a good mathematician and a good person.
29:46She is no fraud.
29:47I am so proud to be your daughter.
29:54And I am proud to be your student.
30:03I will make math history today and prove her innocence.
30:07That proof that she's working off of, that looks like the proof of weak Goldbach's conjecture.
30:17To me, that to her?
30:19No, impossible.
30:20That information is classified due to the impact that it has on cryptography.
30:23I mean, not to mention.
30:26She's going beyond that now.
30:28She's solving it.
30:31She's solving strong Goldbach's conjecture.
30:34I mean, that has never been done.
30:36Let's go watch history be made.
30:41I solved it.
30:42She really did it.
30:45How?
30:45How could she?
30:47It must be Margaret Harmon.
30:49They cheated together.
30:51She wants revenge on me.
30:52They're plotting to take everything away from me.
30:55I can't believe it.
30:56No one has solved strong Goldbach's conjecture in 300 years.
31:00And Zosia has solved it.
31:01You make me so proud.
31:07You did it.
31:15You know, I don't really mind your insults.
31:18But you accused my mom of things she didn't do.
31:20You called her a fraud and you stripped her of her positions and her honors.
31:24I solved your math problems.
31:29Now apologize to my mother.
31:37Apologize?
31:38To her?
31:39Never.
31:41So what?
31:41You've submitted an answer.
31:43It has to be proven correct first.
31:45It's just a bunch of symbols.
31:47Anybody can fake that.
31:48And everyone knows hillbillies are illiterate.
31:51You're an esteemed math professor from which Ivy League again?
31:55Harvard.
31:56Oh, well, I guess they don't teach class over there.
31:59Oh, and what do you know about class?
32:02You're just a high school brat from some backwater town, high society.
32:07It's just an extra moonshine.
32:09I'll bet my job that she wrote nonsense on her paper like an ignorant jackass.
32:14I'll take that bet then.
32:19I'll take that bet then.
32:21How can she be so confident?
32:24That proof, that is top secret proof of the weak version of Goldbach's conjecture.
32:29It's classified information.
32:31You're right.
32:31That is the classified proof.
32:33I was part of the group of mathematicians that helped confirm it.
32:36So I remember.
32:37Zosia Sanchez is guilty of stealing state secrets.
32:41I know what it is.
32:43Oh, Margaret Harmon was there when we confirmed the proof.
32:47It is she who leaked classified information to Zosia Sanchez.
32:52Stop making up false accusations.
32:55I wasn't even there.
32:57Oh, come on, Margaret.
32:59You plagiarize my thesis.
33:01Stealing classified information is nothing to you.
33:04They're both frauds.
33:05They can never be as smart as men.
33:08Throw them in prison.
33:09Security.
33:11No, no, no.
33:11I figured this problem.
33:12Do not touch my mother.
33:14Do not touch my mom.
33:15I figured it out myself.
33:17I didn't plagiarize anything.
33:18Mom.
33:19Mom.
33:22I figured it out myself.
33:23I didn't plagiarize anything.
33:25Mom, mom, please be gentle with my mother.
33:27Please.
33:27You cannot frame me without evidence.
33:30Zosia, you're just a high school brat.
33:32No one is going to believe you proved strong gold box conjecture when no one's done it for 300 years.
33:37You're just afraid that I'm going to expose you for your crimes.
33:41You're no math genius.
33:43Look around.
33:44You're just a kid.
33:46Here, let's ask the judges.
33:47Do you believe her?
33:49Professor Walker, Professor Douglas?
33:50Not from a girl who can't even afford appropriate clothing to wear at a national contest.
33:56All that moonshine has rotted her tiny brain.
33:58No, of course not.
34:00See, there's a reason my portrait's the one hung up on the wall.
34:04All you ever learned from your mother is how to commit fraud.
34:08Oh.
34:11I'll give you one less chance.
34:14All you have to do is admit that Margaret leaked you classified information, and I'll spare you.
34:19I'll never admit to your lies.
34:22I can't save you.
34:24Mom.
34:25Report them to the FBI.
34:27No, you'll cripple Zosia's career forever.
34:30You have no right to speak here.
34:32You already lost all your respect when you plagiarized Dr. King's thesis.
34:37You two can't win against me.
34:39I'm the world-renowned math genius now after stealing your research.
34:43Everyone believes me.
34:45Crush them.
34:47Stop.
34:48Stop it.
34:49Stop it.
34:59Mr. Jensen, CEO of Apollo Tech.
35:03He gets a player in the microchip industry.
35:04And Mr. Reeds, the organizer of the National Math Olympiad.
35:08You are about to imprison the math genius of the century.
35:11Math genius?
35:13She's hardly a math genius.
35:15You let her go immediately.
35:22Who are you?
35:25The leaders of the microchip industry, they chose these problems for the math Olympiad.
35:30We'd love to have a genius like you at Apollo Tech.
35:32Mr. Jensen, years ago, Margaret Harman plagiarized my thesis.
35:38Now, she's leaked the classified proof of gold box conjecture to her daughter, Zosia.
35:43Report them to the FBI.
35:45Please, look at the work.
35:47It's exactly the same as the proof we confirmed back then.
35:50It is indeed the same classified proof of weak gold box conjecture.
35:54Then it's time to call the FBI.
35:55In fact, it's gone far beyond the proof that we confirmed several years ago.
35:59This is strong gold box conjecture.
36:01Zosia solved it.
36:09Zosia Sanchez is just a high school vagabond.
36:12And a girl.
36:13Look at her clothes.
36:15I promise my work is 100% sound.
36:17Okay, let's check it then.
36:19Perhaps Ms. Cain here is unaware that checking a proof like this requires incredible computing power.
36:24Power of 10 to the 18th.
36:26Correct.
36:27We would have to take this to the nation's biggest supercomputer facility in order to confirm the accuracy of Zosia's work.
36:32We could take all of the computing power in this room, and at best we could calculate perhaps 5% of proof.
36:39I thought that our goal here was to advance microchip technology.
36:43If this proof doesn't do that, then isn't it kind of useless to our industry?
36:47I'm willing to submit my work to be tested.
36:49I'm willing to submit my work to be tested.
36:55If your proof fails, that means you and your mother, Margaret Harmon, are both frogs.
37:00And we'll have you both thrown in prison for the rest of your lives.
37:04Zosia, are you sure you want to do this?
37:08I'm 100% confident.
37:11It was my mother's dream to work on this project before Becky Cain stole it.
37:15I support this.
37:17If Zosia's proof is correct, we'll have a math genius that could help us win the Global Chips War.
37:22We should support young blood, Jensen.
37:23Then let's do it.
37:26And I will gather all of the computing power in Silicon Valley to check.
37:31What?
37:32All the power of Silicon Valley?
37:35Well, that will overload the power grid and cause a citywide blackout.
37:38The financial ramifications of this are unfathomable.
37:42Will this kid even be held accountable for all of that?
37:45The pressure is great, Zosia, but it's okay.
37:49I will be the person held accountable if Zosia's proof fails.
37:57I will be the person held accountable if Zosia's proof fails.
38:00No, Mom, you can't.
38:02No.
38:02Yes, Zosia, you are my greatest pride and our nation's greatest hope.
38:09For years, our country has been lagging behind, and I do this for our country and for the women in STEM.
38:15But most of all, I do it for you.
38:19Because I believe in you, Zosia.
38:21I do.
38:22Margaret Harmon, you've already been exiled from the field of mathematics.
38:26Why do we even care about you anymore?
38:28Well, what if I add my weight?
38:30I'll be held accountable if Zosia's proof fails.
38:33And I'm in as well.
38:34The CEO of Apollo Tech?
38:37If you back her up, too, really.
38:42Thank you for believing in Zosia.
38:44Perfect.
38:47I can get rid of you two once and for all.
38:50Oh, and I just got the governor's approval to use all of the computing power from Silicon Valley to check Zosia's proof.
38:56Amazing.
38:57If I'm correct, I want Becky Cain's work to be re-examined for plagiarism.
39:03Okay, we don't even know if she's correct yet.
39:08Let's not be talking about checking award-winning work.
39:11The bet is still on.
39:13Margaret Harmon and Zosia Sanchez will be exiled from STEM if the proof fails.
39:18Are you sure about this, Zosia?
39:20Despite the consequences?
39:23Absolutely.
39:23Fantastic.
39:28All of the computer power from Silicon Valley will be transferred to the AI in this room in the next 10 minutes.
39:36So is that a solution that would potentially work for you?
39:40Stop the meeting.
39:41Yes!
39:42Nice, nice.
39:45Zosia Harmon is on the verge of the next great tech discovery, but we need your computing power to finish the test.
39:51If you agree, please hit the yes button.
39:54The number one tech company in the world needs my help?
39:57Oh my gosh!
39:58A woman in STEM?
39:59Better microchips and GPUs, hell yeah!
40:03Yes!
40:05Everyone hit yes on ship advancement.
40:09Oh my god.
40:11This will change our industry forever.
40:15It looks like even those outside of Silicon Valley are supporting this research.
40:18The world believes in the work we do.
40:21They understand how monumental it is.
40:23Computing power acquired.
40:25We may begin.
40:26I won't disappoint them.
40:51You can do this, Zosia.
40:52Make all the women in tech proud.
40:54Yes!
40:54Yes!
40:54Go, Zosia!
40:56Max my GPU!
40:58Zosia!
40:59Zosia!
41:00Zosia!
41:01Zosia!
41:01Zosia!
41:02Zosia!
41:03Zosia!
41:04Accelerate!
41:05Accelerate!
41:05Accelerate!
41:06Accelerate!
41:07Accelerate!
41:07Accelerate!
41:08Accelerate!
41:11Analysis 100% complete.
41:14Did Zosia get it?
41:25Congratulations, Zosia Sanchez.
41:28You have proved strong Goldbox Conjecture.
41:33You've succeeded, my child.
41:36No one's ever done it before.
41:38We can create the greatest encrypted microchips in the world now.
41:41Ha ha ha!
41:42History has been made.
41:45You've kept my dream alive all these years, but now you've completed it.
41:50Oh, my God!
41:53Go, Zosia!
41:55Yes!
41:56Oh, my God!
41:58You did it!
42:01Impossible.
42:03I won our bet, Becky Cain.
42:05Now it's time to apologize to my mother.
42:12On national television?
42:15You wish.
42:16I'm a Nobel Prize winner.
42:18The youngest professor at Princeton.
42:21You're all nothing compared to me.
42:24You stole my mother's research, and you tried to frame me for cheating, but you failed.
42:29It is time to check Becky Cain's work in the last 10 years.
42:34The world will know who the real fraud is.
42:37Who are you to check my work?
42:39You're just trailer trash.
42:41That swamp stench of yours will always be an embarrassment to academia.
42:46They'd rather have me than you.
42:47You're wrong.
42:48In academia, we care about merit and honesty.
42:52If you only got that Nobel Prize because you plagiarized Ms. Harmon's work,
42:56then it's our turn to strip Becky Cain of her honors and her position in the Math Hall of Fame.
43:01You wouldn't.
43:05You can't.
43:06If she really stole Ms. Harmon's work, then it would make sense why Becky Cain hasn't done anything ever since.
43:13The only thing she ever wrote, she plagiarized.
43:17What you owe my mother, I will have you give it all back 10 times over.
43:21Zosia Sanchez, if you can solve strong Goldbach's conjecture, then we were wrong about you, and we're sorry.
43:29You indeed are a genius.
43:32It was Becky Cain who told us to sabotage you.
43:35You're all betraying me, too?
43:36Hey, I helped you get that position at CalSTEM.
43:41Bribing students to help take Zosia down seems a bit suspicious, Ms. Cain.
43:49Check Becky's work.
43:50Exactly.
43:51If I had to check my proof, then it's only fair that she does, too.
43:55If I had to check my proof, then it's only fair that she does, too.
44:02Check her work.
44:04Check her work.
44:06Check her work.
44:08Check her work.
44:09You can all shut up.
44:11Hey, remember, I'm in the Math Hall of Fame.
44:16There's only one person in the entire country who has the authority to challenge my work.
44:22Wait, does she mean the Director of Science and Technology?
44:25Is it the highest government office in tech?
44:28Could it be Thomas Oppen?
44:30That's right.
44:32It's me.
44:37That's right.
44:39It's me.
44:40It's him.
44:43He corroborated with Becky to steal my research ten years ago.
44:46I call fraud.
44:49Margaret Harmon stole my research results.
44:51I have a witness, too.
44:53I attest that Miss Becky Cain did submit her thesis to me three days ago.
44:58You don't belong in the Math Hall of Fame anymore.
45:00I do.
45:03You're just in time, honey.
45:05And Charles, my top student.
45:07Well, I saw you were in a little bit of trouble, so of course I had to come.
45:12I can't believe you let that loser turn this crowd against you.
45:18Yeah.
45:18Sosha may have proved strong gold box conjecture, but I recorded her work on here.
45:24We can claim it as our own.
45:32That proof is our nation's latest top secret discovery.
45:36That can make the best microchips in the world.
45:39She's stealing just like how she stole Miss Harmon's work.
45:43I am the director of science and tech, and that means, newsflash, we can do whatever we want.
45:50You are despicable, Becky Cain.
45:53My mom taught you all her math, and you betrayed her.
45:57Not only did you steal her thesis, but you'd sleep with an old man for fame and power?
46:03So what?
46:05You have nothing to your name.
46:07Who are you to judge me?
46:08Oh, I've heard all about you.
46:11Just an orphan from the boonies.
46:14Young girls raised on pig slop in the swamps.
46:18Born to be stepped on by the likes of us.
46:21You see, we're the elite.
46:24My boyfriend is the director of all things STEM.
46:28He is the law in our field.
46:35He is the law in our field.
46:37You can't arrest me with him here.
46:40You hear that, everyone?
46:42She got her position by sleeping with an old white man.
46:47She's no math in this at all.
46:51You and your sickly, sickly mother are just a waste of space.
46:57And there is no way I'm going to allow you to win this competition.
47:01Well, I think there's still one unsolvable math problem left.
47:09And I challenge you, Becky Cain.
47:15She's right.
47:16She already solved two of the unsolvable math problems.
47:18That means that she can challenge any professor at any level to a math duel.
47:23Do something.
47:25We can't let them expose us as frauds.
47:26Hey, don't worry.
47:27Don't worry.
47:28We got a little secret weapon.
47:32Sure.
47:33We'll accept your math duel.
47:35But you have to defeat my student first.
47:39Hmm?
47:39Charles is the top math student in all of Princeton.
47:45See, because you're such a young punk, you have to defeat Becky's student first before
47:51you could ever get a chance to go up against the likes of her.
47:54Yeah.
47:55That's right, Zosia.
47:56It's in the rule book.
47:57You have to be careful, Zosia.
47:59Charles has been crowned the youngest math Olympiad winner since even before you at age 10.
48:04I remember him.
48:06He's a legitimate genius.
48:07He's only studying with Becky Cain and Thomas Oppen.
48:09For the faint connections, do not underestimate him.
48:13Scared now?
48:14Can you handle a real genius?
48:16You could still back out now.
48:18But you and your mother will be exiled forever.
48:21Sweetie, you don't have to do this for me.
48:24No.
48:26Let's begin.
48:29Let's begin.
48:30Let's begin.
48:34So what if you've proven the strong Goldbox conjecture?
48:39We are already on the last step of the third unsolvable microchip problem.
48:46That's impossible.
48:48The last problem encompasses a three-body operating model and two-dimensional foil technology,
48:53which proves that 3D can collapse into a 2D space.
48:57Yes, it fulfills a total paradigm shift as a quantitative leap.
49:00It's the ultimate weapon in quantum physics.
49:02You couldn't have solved it.
49:03That may be a shocker to you hobos,
49:06but it's nothing for us when the director of science and tech is on our side.
49:10I get to direct research funding wherever I want in this country.
49:14Ah, corruption at its finest.
49:15You're just jealous because only we, the elite, have access to the best tech,
49:20the best libraries.
49:22Only money can get you those things.
49:24Meanwhile, dirt poor people like you are a waste of space and should sink to the bottom of the ocean.
49:33And looking at this farm Barbie, I doubt she can even pay for her own nice lead pencil.
49:40Zosia Sanchez will never be able to afford any of this equipment.
49:45Nobody has been able to figure out this problem, not even with the invention of supercomputers.
49:50She don't got the brains.
49:51It's perfect that this is being live streamed around the world.
49:58We can prove that Ivy League elites are leagues above these swamp creatures.
50:04Bottom feeders should always stay at the bottom.
50:06And I'm about to prove to the universe that Humble Beginnings gave me exactly the skill to overthrow people like them.
50:21You think money is brain power, but my mom taught me what it takes to rise from the bottom to the top.
50:28We can do anything exponentially better.
50:32Well said.
50:33I came from Humble Beginnings too.
50:34We believe in you, Zosia, over all of their fancy lab equipment.
50:38That is just poor people's wishful thinking.
