UPDATE: In a gripping turn of events, the latest episode of HBO’s “Industry” reveals shocking truths about Tender’s finances, as Sweetpea Golightly (played by Miriam Petche) faces life-threatening dangers in Accra, Ghana. The episode, titled “Eyes Without a Face,” premiered on October 22, 2023, and has viewers buzzing with its harrowing developments.
Sweetpea and her colleague Kwabena Bannerman (played by Toheeb Jimoh) uncover that Tender’s financial empire is built on a series of fraudulent deals. Their pursuit of the truth takes a dark turn when Sweetpea confronts Tender’s CFO, Tony Day (portrayed by Stephen Campbell Moore), leading to a brutal attack in a women’s restroom.
In a shocking scene, Sweetpea is assaulted, resulting in a broken nose as she fights back against her attacker. “I think that it isn’t meant to escalate to where it’s meant to escalate,” Petche revealed in an interview with DECIDER. The emotional weight of the episode highlights Sweetpea’s resilience, as she navigates both physical and emotional turmoil.
After the violent encounter, Sweetpea and Kwabena connect with a local woman who validates their findings. Their investigation culminates in a dramatic discovery: Tender’s address in Accra reveals nothing, solidifying their belief that the entire operation is a scam. Despite their victory, Sweetpea returns to London battered, emotionally drained, and alone.
The episode concludes with Sweetpea rejecting an offer of friendship from her boss, Harper Stern (played by Myha’la), leaving viewers questioning the depths of her isolation. “I think Sweetpea blocks that offer for her own safety,” Petche noted, emphasizing the struggle to find meaningful connections in a cutthroat environment.
As the series progresses, fans are left wondering how Sweetpea will cope with her experiences and whether she will learn to trust again. The emotional stakes are high, and with tensions running deep, viewers are eager for the next developments.
