About this listen

The Facility Optimization Committee forms to bring "systematic process improvement" to Alligator Alcatraz, led by efficiency expert Brad Thornton and his plan to drain the swamp through "Operation Dry Ground." While officials hold PowerPoint meetings about water management, their drainage project creates a moat around the administrative building, complete with resident alligators. Meanwhile, Tommy quietly builds his own committee—Luis the landscaper, Maria the organizer, and Old Pete the fisherman—who actually solve problems like mosquito infestations and food shortages. As Warden Fitzpatrick gets rowed to meetings across his new moat, Tommy's network proves that real leadership happens without committees, presentations, or official recognition.
