Young Elizabeth Holmes always believed that her knowledge would be useful to people. As she got older, she was able to convince influential investors to bring the latest invention to the market. But things didn’t go the way she wanted. Now Holmes will have to look into the eyes of the people who fell victim to her innovation. But the main thing is that her happy future has collapsed, because Elizabeth can go to jail.
“The Dropout ss 2”: release date, announcement
The continuation of the dramatic miniseries “The Dropout” has not been announced. The podcast of Rebecca Jarvis “The Dropout” served as material for the creation of the TV project.
Having become a high-profile event in America, the story appeared at the hearing in other countries. Deciding not to waste time, TV show creator Elizabeth Meriwether immediately got to work and was able to launch the project in record time.
Plot
While the students were having fun, Elizabeth worked tirelessly on an invention that would help people get rid of injections. Since childhood, she herself did not tolerate blood sampling procedures and dreamed of someday creating a device that would carry out diagnostics without introducing hated needles under the skin.
As time went on, Elizabeth improved the Chinese language, believing that over time this nation would become the world’s economic leader. In China, she meets a man named Sunny Balwani, who is old enough to be her father. At a conscious age, he flew to China in order, like Holmes, to study a foreign language.
At first, the relationship between them was only friendly. But after several unsuccessful attempts to fit in with her peers, Elizabeth realizes that Sunny is the one she needs. A romantic relationship develops between them, and the girl begins to walk more confidently through life. An unsuccessful attempt to introduce the developed blood sampling device was left behind — now she has found a way to improve it.

Being only a first-year student, with her skills she gave odds to graduates. Even teachers listened to her, who readily took Elizabeth into their projects for undergraduates. But bad luck — the search for influential investors was delayed. She had to throw all her strength into finding rich people who were ready to invest in a novelty.
In this she was helped by Sunny, who became the head of the company created by Elizabeth, and her parents provided the initial capital. Holmes was ready to drop out of college, because the confidence in the need for her invention for millions of people had long settled in her head. Deciding to trust the child, her parents gave away all the savings that they put aside for her education.
The trouble came at the moment when it became known that it was impossible to correctly interpret the results of analyzes obtained from the device created by Elizabeth. With a heavy heart, the girl had to admit that her invention was not only defective, but also harmful. What will happen to her after such a mistake?..
