After employees settle into the office between $8$:$30$ a$.$m$.$ and $9$:$15$ a$.$m$.$ or so$,$ he summons them over a loudspeaker to the theatre at $9$:$30a.m.$ He shows a movie scene that somehow connects with the week's goals. Employees are shown the scene again, he explains the connections, and employees are challenged to think creatively once they are back in their work pods. Teams work independently and then come together before $10$ a$.$m$.$ MOST likely the CEO shows the comedy scene
