As Darlene (Carly Chaikin) gets involved, Angela visits her father, telling him about her break-up. Angela's father isn't surprised about the cheating, he's a douchebag. After offering her money, he starts cooking her meal.

Elsewhere, Tyrell is in the limousine with his wife. Darlene discovers the Steel Mountain plan has failed because another hacking group pulled out. All the work Elliot and Mr. Robot did was for nothing.

At a dinner party, Tyrell meets with the man who stole the promotion from him. Tyrell offers himself as a right-hand man. While Shayla tells Elliot about her new job, Tyrell then makes sexual advances towards the man's wife.
