Industry everyone else be damned.
Much of the recently renewed HBO drama s season 1 ender centered on whether Pierpoint s young grads would land full-time jobs at the investment bank, something that weighed heavily on Harper. To ensure her spot, Harper when faced with the opportunity to retract her complaint that got him fired chooses to bring back her toxic boss Eric Tao (Ken Leung) over Sara Dhadwal (Priyanga Burford), who wants the young grad to help her change the culture at Pierpoint. The decision secured her job but shattered her relationships with Daria Greenock (Freya Mavor), who was fired to make room for Eric, and her friend Yasmin Kara-Hanani (Marisa Abela), a fellow grad banking on Daria to get out of a toxic situation of her own.
