Industry, the HBO financial drama about Pierpoint, a fictional financial services sophomore season, is back with more stories to tell. So, let’s examine Industry Season 2 Episode 2, recap the debut episode from this second season, and share with you some streaming details and the upcoming episode’s release date.
In this new season’s debut episode, we see new cast members like Jay Duplass, and we see how the scriptwriters managed to attend to Hollywood’s desire to write in the pandemic as something worthy of a story. Yikes! We all want to forget that episode from our lives and move on! Still, the show’s starting, so let’s look at what it offers straight from the get-go without any further ado.
Industry Season 2 Episode 1 Recap
The sophomore season’s debut episode starts right when the COVID pandemic is at its worst. Harper is working at a hotel, and in her daily routine, she stumbles upon Jesse Blossom, he’s a hedge fund manager who’s recently landed in the United Kingdom. But that casual stumble was no coincidence because when Harper does some background research on the man, she finds that the man made a fortune during the pandemic. Harper’s boss, Eric, constantly nags her about coming back to the office, and in an effort to cajole her back, he’s sending someone to talk to her into coming back. The day after, Harper goes to the office and stumbles into Yasmin, and there’s a bitter exchange.

Boardroom
There’s a big boardroom meeting, and a New York businessman presents himself. William Adler working from home in a familiar zoom call tells the people present that their network tree and how they can monetize it is how much they’re worth to the company. But Eric can’t have any of this, so he angrily leaves the meeting, and people look at each other. Turns out that Eric tells Robert to talk to his clients and make some money.
After that, he pivots towards Harper to get some foreign exchange rate currency deals with Yasmin’s clients as well. And if we know anything about the bad blood between those two, that request will make blood boil. But Harper, ever the so-diligent employee, obliges. We’ll see if that move has any fallout in the next episodes. Then, Eric has a bitter conversation with Rishi and dismisses Harper from his desk; they have a personal talk over a cigarette and recommend some of the firm’s counseling services.
Party Time
It wouldn’t be Industry without the parties, so we see Yasmin going to a soiree hosted by Maxim Alonso, who reveals that his fund doesn’t exist anymore. And that’s bad news because she no longer has a client. But close one door, and open the next because she meets Celeste Pacquet, a managing director at Pierpoint in the wealth management sector. They mingle, Yasmin gets Celeste’s card, and she’s in bed with Maxim by the night’s end.
Hotel
Harper meets Jesse, the man we talked about earlier at the bar. They small talk, but no business talk. The day after, Harper asks Eric about the man, she suspects this man might’ve paid some big money in bribes to a firm for some finance deals. The day moves on, and then Harper is out celebrating Rishi’s engagement, and she and Yasmin go at it again back and forth.
