Billy and Nick seek employment after being
laid off from their positions as watch salesmen when their employer goes out of
business. Billy then applies for an internship at Google for the two of them, and they are accepted. They
will spend the summer competing in teams against other interns, in a variety of
tasks, and only the members of the winning team will be guaranteed jobs with Google. The team is
led by Lyle, who constantly tries to act hip in order to hide his insecurities.
Mr. Chetty, the head of the internship program.
When he begins attending technical
presentations, he takes a real interest in the material. While the teams prepare
to staff the technical support hotline, only Billy feels at a loss. He tutors
Billy on the technical information. During the task, Billy is comfortable with
the material, but his team receives no score because he failed to properly log
his calls for review. Dejected, Billy leaves Google to pursue a new sales opportunity with his
former boss. The final task is announced as a sales challenge. The teams must
sign the largest possible company to begin advertising with Google. The team is
stunned when Nick tells them that Billy has left, and they declare that they do
not want to do the task without him. Nick convinces Billy to return, and Billy
leads the team to show a local pizzeria owner how Google can help connect him with potential customers
and how Internet resources can help him expand the business while remaining
true to his professional values.
The team arrives during the final assembly
just as the winners are to be announced; but the official rules allow them to
present their results even at the last moment. The screen behind Chetty shows
all the team members dancing with giant afros and Billy is throwing pizza at
everyone. Chetty recognizes that although the pizzeria is not a large business,
its potential is now limitless because it has embraced technology. Nick, Billy,
and his team declared the winners and will receive jobs at Google.
