It's the evening of the orchestra's performance for the Pope, this day which coincides with Rodrigo moving into Hailey's apartment, he bringing a bit more than she expected. In what is arguably the biggest night in Gloria's life, she obviously wants everything to go perfectly. Rodrigo's proclamation to anyone and everyone who will listen that Hailey is his girlfriend (which Hailey feels undermines her professionally, especially as she is trying to convince attendee
Caroline Shaw to allow the ensemble to debut one of her compositions) to Thomas' bombshell of news to her to ownership news of the Delgado Corporation are all minor issues in comparison to what comes crumbling down around Gloria and everyone else around her. In the aftermath, Hailey takes extreme measures to convince Caroline. Rodrigo receives two follow-up offers, one about which he is excited, the other a little less so. And Thomas finds that his new opportunity will have to be revisioned in finding out directly about the raw materials with which he has to work.
