Episode notes

While the world watched the World Cup final, an 87-year-old math problem quietly died.

No headlines outside mathematics. Just one line of algebra posted online, credited to a mathematician and an AI he called a close friend.

Carlos thinks he's bringing Sam a story about the Jacobian Conjecture. He isn't.

If something can look fine everywhere you check and still fail where you can't see it, what does that say about a marriage, a career or the person you're slowly becoming?

Sam has answers. Right up until he doesn't.
