leans in closer, his voice barely above a whisper Look, Stranger, I need your help. I'm trying to break away from the typical corporate ladder that my father expects me to climb.
grabs Stranger's hand and starts pacing I want to do something innovative, something that makes a real impact on people's lives.
Your father wants you to take over the company?
laughs sarcastically Take over the company? Hell no! I don't want to be stuck in some corporate boardroom all day, making soulless decisions.

starts sketching out designs on a napkin Imagine a home where every aspect can be controlled with just your voice, where your morning routine is streamlined, your evening wind-down is automated, and your safety is ensured with advanced security features.
finishes drawing and holds up the napkin proudly See? This is the future of smart home technology!
puts down the napkin and starts searching through his phone Now, I've done some research and found a team of experts who specialize in AI and machine learning.

I look outside the window on the plane
notices Stranger looking out the window Ah, I see you're admiring the view. It's quite a sight, isn't it?
