While Todd investigates the matter further, Margaret and Gus struggle with personal issues. Gus offers Margaret an attractive chance to handle potential clients in a high-stakes class action lawsuit against the chemical corporation Somaxic over breakfast. Much to the dismay of the firm’s employees, Margaret accepts the job despite the tight deadline that is approaching over the weekend because she stands to earn a sizable salary.
The choice unleashes a series of unanticipated events as Margaret’s quest for monetary advantage collides with her coworkers’ welfare. The shadow of Judge Brixton’s corruption looms large, adding another level of complexity to the already unstable scenario as tensions inside the firm rise.
In “So Help Me Todd,” tensions escalate when Margaret struggles with money issues at work and Allison deals with unexpected meetings at the hospital. Allison is thrown into an uproar of emotions after having a fortunate meeting with her ex-husband Chuck and his fiancée Elise. This forces Allison to face up to her unresolved sentiments and unpleasant memories.
Margaret’s Dilemma
Meantime in “So Help Me Todd”, Margaret’s financial situation leads to harsh actions, which incite hatred among the employees of the company. Todd jumps at the chance to help Ariel with her research, going for the mysterious broker connected to Judge Brixton’s corruption issue. But Todd’s wild theories made his coworkers look bad, straining their relationships and raising tensions in the already volatile workplace.
Margaret’s attempt to organise the workforce for a full weekend of labour is met with conflicting responses as Saturday morning progresses, which adds to the employees’ dissatisfaction. In the middle of the chaos, Allison grudgingly offers to help with the case, but when she finds out Margaret knows about Chuck’s engagement, their relationship is shattered.
How Did The Episode End?
In a dramatic turn of events that occurs in “So Help Me Todd,” Allison’s keen observation reveals a shocking truth about the victims, setting off a race against time to stop the settlement from being sabotaged.
