Episode: 5
Lisa gives James and a coworker in pink one week to force Ella Harrington out. The coworker relocates Ella's desk next to the bathroom. An accountant refuses Ella's expense form over formatting. During a meeting, the team lies about the schedule and kicks Ella out. Later, Lisa invites the office to her villa to celebrate a technical proposal, leaving Ella alone to question the work.
Lisa calls James and the coworker in pink into her private office. She gives them a direct instruction to get rid of Ella Harrington within seven days, and both employees agree to carry out the task against their new colleague.
The coworker in pink approaches Ella in the open workspace. She tells Ella that Lisa dislikes seeing her near the executive suite. Ella finds her workstation relocated right next to the entrance of the public office restroom.
Ella delivers her expense paperwork to the finance manager wearing a vest and glasses. He hands the papers back immediately and claims the formatting contains errors. He orders Ella to redo the entire document and correct the layout.
Ella enters the conference room, but Lisa yells at her for tardiness. James and the coworker in pink claim the start time was three o'clock. When Ella tries to play her recorded audio of the schedule, Lisa throws her out.
Colleagues mock Ella for staying at the firm. Lisa announces that the general manager approved her technical proposal. She invites the whole floor to her private villa, intentionally excluding Ella, who wonders when vacationing Lisa wrote the document.
“Listen up. I want Ella Harrington out of here within a week.”
“Lisa doesn't want to see your face every time she leaves her office. You're moving to another desk.”
“Really? I recorded it.”
“Oh, and certain anti-social people can stay behind. Don't spoil the mood.”
Lisa takes the department away to celebrate at her private villa while deliberately leaving Ella behind. Sitting alone by the restroom with two days until the anniversary celebration, Ella wonders how Lisa produced that proposal right after vacation. Who actually drafted the report that the general manager loved?
