Chris is walked out of the building. He has no idea what's coming for him. Least of all, that he's about to be swallowed up by the nooks and crannies.

We're going to return to the nooks and crannies, I promise. But first, we have to talk about Willy Wonka.

For those in need of a refresher, in the book, Wonka's factory has started back up, but nobody understands how. Nobody ever goes in. Nobody ever comes out. This is why it's so exciting when Charlie gets the golden ticket to go see the inside of the factory. Nobody sees the inside of the factory.

He may be in violation of some employment law, but it's... Totally. Jeannie's insight about the Oompa Loompas became the seed of not one, but two brilliant articles she wrote, using Willy Wonka as the skeleton key for understanding trade secrecy. Her major revelation? Willy Wonka's paranoia, the spying and extreme secrecy, was totally justified. It was essentially based on a true story.

It binds us together. But it also alters the balance of power between us. You know something I don't want other people to know. That puts me at risk. So I need you to know it's a secret. I tell you, don't tell anyone. Before I whisper in your ear, I put up a sign on my bedroom door saying, top secret, keep out. Trade secrecy works on playground rules.
