The tension between our Industry characters just continues to build, and while many fans have picked up on the lingering glances that Whitney (Max Minghella) keeps giving Henry (Kit Harington), this week's episode takes their relationship to new heights – among plenty of other major plot developments.
Apologies are made and it's downplayed with hilarious reference to Henry's past school dalliances, with cracks starting to form between the married couple as Yasmin continues to mull over what Harper's said about Whitney's character.
Henry and Whitney start off the evening at a business dinner, which then turns into Henry taking his first sip of wine since becoming sober. He's been vocal about his struggles with addiction, something excellently pulled off in his episode earlier this season. But Whitney is there, almost gleefully taking the opportunity to push Henry off the wagon.
Things escalate when Henry receives some sexual gratification from a wall – the less said on that, the better – but in the throes of his own passion, Whitney is right there telling Henry that "everybody wants you", clearly the one thing that a needy Henry revels in hearing.
Aside from the internal Tender dynamics, Harper is invited to speak at a Women in Finance event and uses the opportunity to present SternTao's findings on Tender. She's clear about the fact that there are major irregularities within Tender's accounts, meaning that their (zero) value is a lot lower than they're making out. Funnily enough, Yasmin is in the audience and looks to be in stark fear for what's to come, as Harper warns of a swift fall for the company.
It turns out that Tony is going to London to finally tell all to Sweetpea (Miriam Petche) and FinDigest, booked in for a meeting the following morning. It's worth celebrating for the small SternTao team, although that proves to be short-lived.
Hayley references the "difficult positions I've put myself in explicitly for you" and says she has felt unsafe since their trip to Abu Dhabi, where Whitney got her to schmooze Al-Miraj clients.
The last assistant that he had disappeared in a cloud of mystery after working for Whitney and Hayley threatens him, saying that maybe it's something she should go to the press about, as she fears Whitney may have been capable of something more sinister. She names her price but Whitney doesn't want to give her any money and Hayley simply tells him that he'll have to live with the consequences of his actions.

It turns out that these people were actually the tech arm of Russia's Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) and Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation (FSB).
But the surprises don't stop at Hayley being a hired escort and Tender actually having links to Russian intelligence, oh no.
With incriminating video evidence like that (which we can surmise was likely orchestrated by Whitney after this episode's revelations), it's no wonder that the following day, Eric signs over SternTao to Harper without any explanation aside from having "reputational risks". It's a rare selfless act from Eric but is also a massive betrayal to Harper, who was resistant to trust Eric again anyway.
Industry may continue to present knotty, problematic characters that should be way past the point of redemption – and Eric himself has continually proved that he is really rather awful – but this is a whole other chilling case of criminality not worth exploring any further. Bye bye, Eric.
