The financial drama moves to HBO's coveted Sunday-night slot and kicks off season three with a bang.

Capitalism is an uncaring system. That’s not so much a judgment as a statement of fact. A system that insists on profit as its main goal cannot make room for empathy, for decisions that would value care over anything else, let alone the bottomline. Over its past two seasons,has organized itself around questions about of what kinds of people late-stage capitalism values and enshrines.

Such bad press follows her to Pierpoint, where it’s clear it may start affecting her standing. Thankfully, Kenny , still sober and making amends, is standing by her on the floor. And boy, is the floor busy! Pierpoint is readying a client of theirs, Lumi—a leader in green energy—to go public.

But that’s all preamble to the key crisis of the episode: A major Lumi investor is eager to dump half his shares ahead of the company going public, voicing in a meeting with Henry, Robert , and Yas on the line concerns he has about Lumi’s books and their debt. It’s the kind of scene that would lose me in any other show, awash as it is with jargon the show seems uninterested in explaining to the audience. But the details don’t matter.
