Series premiere. Five young graduates do whatever it takes to make themselves indispensable at preeminent London investment bank Pierpoint & Co. As hungry outsider Harper grapples with a decision that will gravely affect her future at the bank, she and party-boy Robert take very different approaches to their first few weeks in the bank.

With Harper struggling to find her feet in a new city, Pierpoint throws a morale-boosting appreciation dinner which sees her challenging a drunken, irate Kenny while Gus alienates senior management by discussing his team's future. Meanwhile, Yasmin comes face to face with the culture of her new team and takes her flirtation with Robert to risky new heights.

When Pierpoint loses a major client, the grads face their most challenging -- and potentially rewarding -- test to date: devising pitches to drive new business. A creative Gus partners with Robert to catch Clement's attention. Meanwhile, as she navigates a complicated living situation with Yasmin, Harper attempts to juggle conflicting requests from Eric and Daria.

After a wild birthday celebration with Robert, Yasmin and Greg, Harper's workday spirals out of control. As a discrepancy in one of her trades puts her team at risk for major losses, Harper seeks support from a surprising source, while unexpected trouble at a networking event brings Yasmin and Robert closer and Gus further alienates his coworkers.

When Pierpoint is rocked by a former employee's scathing expose, the grads use it as an opportunity.

Sex, drugs and secrets light up Pierpoint's annual holiday party, where Maxim's unexpected arrival aggravates tensions between Yasmin and Kenny and Greg finds himself in a painful predicament after partying a little too hard with Robert and Usman. After confiding in Daria, Harper is blindsided by a meeting with Sara, the president of the London office.

With Reduction in Force Day looming, the graduates do whatever it takes to secure final recommendations from their superiors and solidify vital client relationships. At a dinner party hosted by Yasmin and Sebastian, resentment and jealousy bubble to the surface and Harper divulges confidential company business.

After a tumultuous few months at Pierpoint, the graduates take vastly different approaches as they stand before senior management to prove they're worthy of permanent positions. Following an unexpected meeting with a familiar face, Harper contends with a decision that could transform the culture of Pierpoint.
