Inside Job

'Inside Job' is a 2021 animated show on Netflix. It is created by Shion Takeuchi. Alex Hirsch of Gravity Falls is a producer on the show.

Reagan Ridley should be on top of the world. She's primed to become the next successor of Cognito, Inc. Her father Rand founded the company and got ousted after he tried blowing up the sun in a bid to cure skin cancer. Now the Ridleys have divorced, and Rand has moved in with Reagan. To make matters worse, her boss J.R. says that she's great at the science and conspiracies, not so much at the team management. He hires a co-leader, a smiling Nice Guy named Brett, to help Reagan earn her promotion to Cognito, Inc. CEO. Reagan hates that Brett gets along with everyone but doesn't have an ounce of evil -- or tech smarts-- in his body. But as they become friends, and deal with shenanigans that may destroy the planet, Reagan may realize this dream to rule the world has a tainted source.

Part 2 is set to come out in 2022. A preview has been released in June of the same year.


 * The Alcoholic:
 * Rand has been drinking so much that he regularly gets organs from the cloning department at Cognito, Inc. Episode 2 features him blackmailing J.R. to get more livers. Reagan does ask why not cut back on drinking.
 * According to, Reagan's alcohol index is at high levels. She gets it from her dad. We know that things are going to suck in season two when.
 * Godzilla Threshold: ROBOTUS nearly destroyed the world in the pilot when Reagan shows him how things really are. Thus, it's a really big deal in the season finale when.
 * Ignored Epiphany: As Rand admits in the season two opener, he misses his ex-wife and despite hurting the latter so badly that she never wants to speak to him again. He proceeds to.
 * OOC Is Serious Business:
 * If Rand is actually scared for Reagan's well-being rather than being a dick to her? Yeah, be afraid. Very afraid.
 * Druggie Andre becoming retrospective? That is a sign that things are going to go off-the-rails. During "The Brettfast Club," he waxes eloquent about the racism preserved in Still Valley due to everyone thinking they're still in the 80s.
 * If Brett stops smiling or actually stands up to people, things get serious for this people-pleaser. Case in point, during "The Brettfast Club", he's actually hurt that Reagan thinks 80s nostalgia is stupid and doesn't want to indulge him while they go undercover in Still Valley to locate a missing Myc.
 * Too Kinky to Torture: Brett reveals in the pilot that he did 38 weeks of hazing at Yale to get into all the fraternities. As a result, he can handle large amounts of physical pain, and even seems to welcome it.
 * Tyrant Takes the Helm: The season two opener shows that
