1	"Material Adverse Change"	Julie Anne Robinson	Teleplay by : Georgia Lee	August 26, 2022 (2022-08-26)
Keen to make partner in the Mergers & Acquisitions (M&A) division of prestigious law firm Parsons Valentine and Hunt, Ingrid Yun competes with her main rival Dan Fallon to work with M&A managing partner Marty Adler on a deal for energy conglomerate Sun Corp to acquire Chinese based firm Min Enterprises. Amidst her competition with Dan, matters are complicated for Ingrid by the transfer of Jeff Murphy to the New York office from London. Jeff and Ingrid had shared a passionate weekend together six years prior at a wedding, an encounter which left a lasting impression on Ingrid but which Jeff seemingly doesn't remember. Ingrid also begins dating wealthy philanthropist Nick Laren whilst simultaneously dealing with her wayward sister Lina. When Marty informs Dan and Ingrid that only one of them can continue working on the Sun Corp deal, Dan edges out Ingrid by using his connections at the Department of Energy (DOE), devastating Ingrid. However, at a reception hosted by Nick, Ingrid encounters Dan's DOE contact and realises he is drunkenly speaking to Francine, a Financial Times journalist working on a story about the rumoured acquisition. To save the deal from being prematurely revealed, Ingrid proposes an expedited plan to Marty and works through the weekend with her staff to get the deal ready for a Monday morning agreement. She successfully does so, outmanoeuvring Dan in the process. As she celebrates her victory, Jeff reveals that he remembers their passionate weekend very well.
