Improving is not the worst thing a new series could do.
And like, oh like, let that be this idiots downfall.
This episode picks up where the last present-day episode left off.
Apple TV+
But not watching it wouldnt be fair to Hannah, and all the real people her character represents.
When Mitch started coming on to Hannah, she felt confused, and powerless, and indebted.
And Mitch didnt care about any of those feelings.
And here they are now, in the exact same situation, just minus the sex.
Because in the end, these things are always about power.
I am being forced to examine my behavior quick recappers note: no, hes not!
so why is Fred the only one who doesnt have to look at his behavior?
He wants Hannah to corroborate his story to a reporter as living, breathing proof of Freds complicity.
But processing is a good thing a sign that someone is open to taking a risk to create change.
Alex Levy is not that person.
Alex tells her to cut to the chase.
Bradley is sure that they can hold Mitchs feet to the fire and nail Fred at the same time.
Oh stop sayingus, there is notus!
There is you interviewing him, and me getting fed!
Thats when Bradley gets confirmation of what shes suspected all along.
Loyalty, she repeats back.
Bradley heads out of Alexs door and into Corys…
And Alex heads directly to Fred.
Its humbling to admit when you were wrong, she tells him over lunch.
But I care too much about this show to let my bruised ego get in the way.
Oh, Alex… kindly come off it, dear.
regret, its not following that gut instinct.
Well, we seem to be the only two people who care about this show, Alex says solemnly.
But Fred tells Alex theres one more part to this cleanup plan.
Charlie Black it has become clear he knew about Mitchs behavior and he chose to protect Mitch.
Ill give you one guess…
He wants to topple the king, Bradley tells Cory.
And if that is of interest to you, that is definitely of interest to me.
Bradley looks him the eye and tells him that she has considered that.
So Cory tells Bradley hes done processing, and they hatch a little plan of their own.
That plan involves bringing Chip into the mix.
You wanna turnThe Morning Showin to a fing nuclear weapon and drop it on the web link…
This is a kamikaze mission!
Now its a very hurt-looking Chips turn to process.
Of course they are, Alex assures him all is well.
Chip throws the phone to the ground, and hes made his decision as well.
(Cory, of course, lives in the chaos between those two camps.)
And Hannah does… not react with the excitement Claire might have expected.
And then she tells Claire that shes the one who reported them to H.R.
It needed to be done, she insists.
I have a higher-up position at work, I have a responsibility!
There are a lot of men who care more about their own power than they do about you.
She cant control how they would see it, and theres no chance it would work in her favor.
Thats a beautiful, optimistic, and very naive statement, Claire responds.
And were back to where we started.
She didntuse himfor a promotion, heused her.
I thought you believed in me, that you were mentoring me I looked up to you!
See you back here next week for the final reckoning.
