After moving to Los Angeles to pursue their careers, sisters Callie and Mariana face new challenges in their new jobs and personal lives in the third episode of Good Trouble season 1, titled "Allies."
The episode starts with Callie struggling to find a balance between her work as a law clerk and her activism as she prepares for a big demonstration. Meanwhile, Mariana is excited about the prospect of getting promoted at her tech company, but her excitement is dampened when she realizes that her male colleagues are being paid more than her for doing the same job.
As the day of the demonstration arrives, Callie is disappointed to find that her fellow protesters don't share her level of commitment, and she becomes even more frustrated when her boss asks her to cancel her plans to attend a meeting with a potential client. However, her spirits are lifted when she meets a group of activists who share her passion for justice and agree to help her with her cause.
On the other hand, Mariana decides to confront her boss about the pay gap in the company and asks for a raise. To her surprise, her boss offers her a promotion instead, promising to fix the inequality issue within the company. However, Mariana's excitement is short-lived when she realizes that her new role comes with new challenges and responsibilities that she hadn't anticipated.
Throughout the episode, the sisters are faced with difficult decisions that test their values and their relationships with those around them. They are forced to navigate the complex world of work and activism, and rely on each other for support and guidance.
"Allies" is a compelling episode that explores important themes such as social justice, gender equality, and the challenges of balancing work and personal values. It showcases the depth of the characters and their commitment to their beliefs, even when faced with obstacles and setbacks. This episode is a must-watch for fans of the show and anyone interested in thought-provoking dramas that tackle important social issues.
