When his limousine struck Kevin on his bike (since his father took away his car privileges) while he is on his way to school to turn in his paper (which are based on all of the lies from his past), he invited him to his limousine when he asks Kevin what he has in his hands, he show him his works for a video game,
Alan look at it when he drove Kevin at his school. When Kevin asked for his paper back upon arriving at school, Alan pushed him out of the limo and drove off with it instead of giving Kevin back his paper, which forces Kevin to fail his Social Studies class and undergo summer school to repeat Social Studies and Kevin's father refuses to believe that Kevin did his paper and his paper is stolen, due to his mistrust after Kevin tried to explain to his dad of what happened while his dad is preparing to leave for his business trip to New York, prompting Kevin and his best friend, Becca to go to San Francisco to get Kevin's paper back with Kevin using his dad's credit card (as it is for emergencies only) to pay a trip to San Francisco.
When he was at his company, his crew of millennials propose their idea for the video game.

When one of his employees tell him how he can play video game if he doesn't know how it work, he tell him that he doesn't play it by saying video games are for losers. This also insulted all of his crew members, who leave his office in anger. Becca and Kevin, disguised as Pizza delivery boy enter his office and confront him in order to get him to call Kevin's dad and admit that he stole his homework from him. Alan refuses to admit that he stole Kevin's video game idea to make it his own, and he then calls his secretary and security guard to throw them out, Kevin doesn't give up and shows Becca that he stole Wolf's phone with Kevin secretly bumping all of Alan's credit card numbers. Kevin then pass for Alan's son to get back at him.

Unfortunately, Wolf refused again to accept to admit the truth.
Mr. Highcroft calls him to see the game, but unfortunately the game crash. Wolf then tell Kevin to help him Kevin accept at one condition that he call his father to admit that he stole his story. Alan accepts when the game is finally made and Mr. Highcroft finally congratulated him he invited him for the representation. Alan goes back on his word to Kevin and call his security guard to thrown Kevin and Becca out forever.
Around this point, everyone in his company turn on him after running after Kevin to destroy his phone. During the presentation of the game, a video of Alan was played and was now humiliated. Then the last part of the video show him confessed that he steal the video game idea to Kevin, thus exposing him of his true colors after Kevin reveals that he used his email to send the video to everybody. When Alan states that he was set up, Mr. Highcroft fires him and has security take him away to clean out his office. Mr. Highcroft then allows Kevin to present the video game idea since it was actually Kevin's idea and Kevin's dad shows up and becomes proud of Kevin after Kevin apologizes to father for all of his lies from his past.
At the end of the movie, he was last seen working as a mime in the park and doing a terrible job at it by describing what he is doing. When a woman says, "You suck," Alan replies, "No! You suck! I don't go to your job and show you how to use the plunger, do I? No, I don't!"
