Next panel: watch the full series

Claire loses her job, then buys the company that fired her.

  1. Madison waltzes in, waves a $320k internet printout, and brands Claire's vetted $640k package a kickback scheme. Management swallows the bait, cuts Claire loose, and wires 96 percent upfront to a vendor nobody vetted.

  2. Crates show up packed with refurbished junk that fails every spec. Madison pockets the praise for 'halving costs,' updates her LinkedIn, and vanishes toward a fancier title before the first warranty claim lands.

  3. Claire quietly gathers receipts, emails, and inspection photos, then turns the paper trail into a full refund and a controlling stake. The board that dismissed her now reports to her.

Stand-outs

  • A lowball quote from a stranger trumps institutional knowledge
  • Upfront payment without inspection invites disaster
  • The person who cleans up the mess rewrites the org chart
