please raise your right hand.

and nothing but the truth?

I do.

LAWYER: This is an investigation

Any reason why you can't give full,
complete, and truthful testimony today?

INTERVIEWER: Can you
say the company name?

Theranos.

I thought it was Ther-ah-nos.

No. Theranos. It's a mix
between "Therapy" and "Diagnosis."

Why not Theranosis?

[CHUCKLES]

Because the name is Theranos.

Actually, can we cut that part
about the name?

So, currently we have employees.

We are valued at nine billion dollars.

INTERVIEWER: Wow.

We offer of the most
commonly ordered blood tests.

And the best part is...

LAWYER: "We don't use a
syringe for any of it."

Then you go on to say,
"We can run tests

on a single drop of blood."

Would you characterize
those claims as truthful?

INTERVIEWER: Okay some
rapid-fire questions.

We call them "Maker's Minute."

So you are America's
youngest female self-made billionaire.

A patch is too small to store full doses

But then even if it could, it would
have to provide long-term storage

then you've never met

People go to school for a very long time

You can't get a diagnosis from a patch

I know that.

But what did they say?

It's my word against his.

They don't believe me.

I can't get anyone to believe me.

I ca... I can't get the smell out.

I think we should just throw it out.

[ELECTRICAL ZAP] Oh my god!

This is dangerous. This could hurt you.

We should get rid of it.

[GRUNTING] I need your help.

Elizabeth.

- Get under it.
- [ELIZABETH GRUNTS]

- Yeah. Come on.
- Wait, wait, wait.

Mom, I have to put it down.
I have to put it down.

Alright. Slowly, slowly, slowly.

- Go.
- NOEL: Okay.

Ugh. I don't want
to do this right now. I...

Elizabeth.

No, just go back to the hotel.
I don't... leave me alone.

I believe you.

I believe you.
I believe everything you said.

But I, I didn't...

You told me to be careful,
and I didn't listen to you.

I was drinking.

Men will... take

and... take from you.

So you have to decide right now

if you are going to let that stop you.

- But how...
- You just put it away

and forget it.

And

then one day,

one day, you'll just be fine again.

Come on. This thing smells awful.

Okay.

Great. Okay.

And one, two... three!

[GRUNTS]

[PANTING]

Woo!

Oh!

I love you.

We should wash our hands.

It's a redesign.

It's a box the size of an iPod.

And it doesn't administer medicine,

it tests your blood.

What if you could test your blood

in your own home?

And what if it's not a whole vial

but just a drop?

It would always be with you.

And it... could keep you safe.

So Channing wants us to begin
the research phase

as soon as possible.

We're renting office space
in east Palo Alto.

But isn't that the part of the city

they told you not to go to
during orientation?

- Yeah, it's dangerous.
- Yeah.

I got lost there during the move in

when you sent me to
the Urban Outfitters.

We can't afford anything else right now.

And I wanted to ask you
if you would consider

investing my tuition money
into the company.

Well, how would we pay for your tuition?

Well, you won't have to,

because I'm, I'm going to drop out.

- You're gonna do what?
- No. No!

Steve Jobs dropped out.
Bill Gates dropped out.

Michael Dell, Paul Allen, Elon Musk...

Who's Paul Allen?

- He's the other Microsoft guy.
- I don't care.

You're not dropping out of Stanford.

Start a company after you've graduated.

No. I, I don't even go
to class anymore...

Wait, you don't go to class?

Elizabeth, is this about what happened?

- Noel.
- No.

No.

NOEL: What does this thing even do?

It... tests your blood?

It's...

Mom, you would never have
to have a needle ever again.

[SNIFFLES]

I don't understand you...

I know.

LORRAINE: Guess what?

Elizabeth Holmes
dropped out of Stanford.

And get this,
she invented a medical device.

Some sort of blood testing thing.

A professor from
Stanford is helping her.

They already raised a lot of money.

- She didn't call for my advice.
- What do you mean?

She's going to be doing
the exact same thing

that I'm doing.

She doesn't call me?

She's a kid.

She probably doesn't have
our phone number.

No.

'Cause they all think
they're better than us.

That whole family.

Anyway, Mrs. Holmes said that...

Why do you call her Mrs. Holmes?

She calls you Lorraine.

Why do you call her Mrs. Holmes?

I never thought about it.

She should have called me.

Don't make a big thing of it.

I'm not.

I just think that
she should have called me.

[g*nsh*t, GLASS SHATTERS]

[TIRES SCREECHING]
[ELIZABETH GASPING]

[DISTANT SIREN]

SUNNY: What happened?

Was someone sh**ting at you?

No.

It was a stray b*llet.

There was a fight, I think.

Thank you for coming.

Why did you call me?

You told me never to talk to you again.

I don't know.

Yes, you do. Why am I here?

Why am I here?

You can't push me away again.

I'm going to protect you.

I know.

LAWYER: Do you ever
recall telling anyone,

your patients, your
investors, your board,

that in fact none of the technology
you claimed to have invented

was operational?

And that the results they received
were often inaccurate?

Do you recall telling
any of these people

that your company
was endangering their lives

by giving them false information
about their health?

I know that we made

so many mistakes,

but we were,

we were trying
to, to, to take this forward

and at that time

we thought that we were doing
the right thing.
