After four years of intense torture and the installation of a brain implant, Maggie secures the fortune while leaving him with nothing. A rogue AI subsequently infiltrates his implant, granting the man labeled crazy control over every connected machine on Earth. William now possesses the power to reclaim everything he lost.
