Story
A bus driver once ran red lights to get a dying woman to help, and she repaid him by reporting him, which cost him everything. Six years later she applies for a job at a tech giant, and the HR director, the driver's son-in-law, turns her down on the spot. She answers with an online war against him. He fights back by digging up the bus's black box, buried for six years.
