In season 1 episode 5 of Little Fires Everywhere titled "Duo," Elena and Mia team up for a common cause. Elena's husband, Bill, is running for city council, and Elena needs Mia's help in creating a compelling piece about her family for the campaign. Meanwhile, Mia is also dealing with her daughter, Pearl's, romantic entanglements with Elena's son, Moody.

The episode opens with Mia and Elena discussing the next steps in creating the campaign piece. As they look at old family photos, Mia begins to feel uneasy about the personal details she is revealing to Elena. Elena, on the other hand, is pushing for more information, hoping it will help her husband get elected. The tension between the two women is palpable as they continue to work together.

As the day progresses, Pearl and Moody's relationship becomes more complicated. Pearl is struggling with her feelings for him and her desire to explore other options. When Moody invites Pearl to a party, she quickly agrees, hoping to find someone who excites her more than he does. The party is a disaster, and Pearl ends up feeling more alone than ever.

Back at Elena's house, Mia is working on the campaign piece when she receives an unexpected visitor. Her ex-husband, Joe, has come to see her, and Mia is thrown off guard. Joe is there to pick up their daughter, and Mia is hesitant to let him take her. The two argue, and Mia ultimately relents, but not before Joe drops a bombshell. He tells Mia that she is not Pearl's biological mother.

This revelation shakes Mia to her core, and she struggles to come to terms with it throughout the rest of the episode. Meanwhile, Elena is dealing with her own issues. She is struggling to maintain control over her increasingly rebellious daughter, Izzy. Izzy is acting out more than ever, and Elena is at a loss as to how to reign her in.

As the episode comes to a close, tensions between the two women come to a head. Mia is fed up with Elena's constant need for control, and Elena is frustrated that Mia won't give her the information she wants. The two become embroiled in a heated argument, and it seems like their partnership is about to come to an end.

Overall, "Duo" is a tense and emotional episode that delves deep into the complicated relationships between the characters. Mia and Elena's partnership is more fraught than ever, and Pearl and Moody's relationship is on the ropes. With revelations and arguments around every corner, Little Fires Everywhere continues to be a gripping and compelling drama.
