It is evident that Mae's parents like Mae's friend Mercer and would like to see Mae and Mercer back together. Her father, Vinnie Holland (Bill Paxton), has multiple sclerosis and has some difficulty performing normal day tasks without the help of his wife, Bonnie Holland (Glenne Headly). ![]() While home for the weekend, Mae is at a BBQ with her family and several other people. The employee's name is Ty Lafitte (John Boyega), but he doesn't tell Mae his name. They carry on a little conversation before he gets a prompt from his phone and tells Mae that he has to go and gives her the bottle of alcohol. He says he could tell and pulls out a hidden bottle of liquor from a bush and offers to share it with Mae. He asks her if she is a guppy, a term they use at The Circle for new employees, and she says she is. Mae approaches and begins a conversation. After leaving the office, Mae sees an employee away from all of the events, glued to his phone. Annie explains that Mae actually shouldn't be in the office and that it is where Eamon and the Chief Operating Officer, Tom Stenton (Patton Oswalt), make the big decisions for the company. Annie sneaks Mae away from the party and takes her to an office. During a company-wide party on campus, Beck is performing. The Circle owns a very large campus, and it becomes apparent later on that the company strongly encourages its employees to spend a lot of time on the campus. This initiative is based on the notion of making life more transparent. The cameras come in different colors to allow them to be camouflaged and they provide real-time video feeds. Eamon gives a big speech about the human rights implications of these cameras. The initiative involves small cameras that can be placed anywhere and are meant to make the world more transparent. At a company-wide meeting, the CEO Eamon Bailey (Tom Hanks) introduces a new initiative called SeeChange. She is constantly rated out of a score of 100 by the people she assists, and she is very driven to keep her score high. ![]() Mae interviews at The Circle and gets a job in Customer Experience, an entry level position that requires her to assist users of The Circle's products and services. Annie is constantly traveling because of her responsibilities and is surprisingly upbeat and energetic for the amount of stress that accompanies her job. Annie works at The Circle, a powerful tech company, and is one of the 40 most influential people in the company. The next day, while stuck at a dead end job, Mae gets a call from her friend Annie Allerton (Karen Gillan). Mae smiles at this suggestion and heads home. Mercer responds by saying that they could just talk now since they are both present. The two evidently have some history, and after Mercer is finished looking at the vehicle, Mae tells him that they should get together some time and that she'll text him or email him. She contacts Mercer (Ellar Coltrane) who arrives to take a look at the vehicle. After a day of kayaking, Mae Holland (Emma Watson) is on her way home when her car starts to have trouble, and she is forced to pull over on the side of the road.
