Ryan starts as a junior salesperson at Pacific Trading Company, at the bottom of the hierarchy. Three days ago, he bought a lottery ticket and won a million dollars. When his six colleagues find out, they push him to treat them to dinner. He agrees to Maplewood Grill, expecting a few grand at most.
The colleagues secretly switch the venue to Solstice Grand, a five-star New York hotel, and bury Ryan in overtime. They go ahead without him and order premium wagyu, lobster, Romanée-Conti, cigars, caviar, scarves, and jewelry, putting it all on his tab. By the time Ryan arrives, the meal is over. He doesn't fight. He asks careful questions.
He gets them to confirm Swanson booked the suite and the team picked the food and wine. He also establishes that he hasn't eaten or drunk anything. Then he excuses himself to the front desk.
A staff member warns him the group treated him as an easy target. At the front desk, the manager confirms the total: $402,500, rounded down to $400,000. Ryan refuses to pay with one line: "I didn't consume any of this. They should pay for those, not me."
What follows is methodical. Ryan gathers more evidence and exposes their corruption. The six turn on each other, but they retaliate with rumors and cyberbullying. His final proof gets them fired, jailed, and puts him in charge.
