'Black Monday' Season 1 Episode 2: Mo's true motives for befriending Blair laid bare

We already know what Mo wants for his firm, and it is established that he will go to any extent to achieve that.

Showtime's take on the historically disastrous stock market crash of the 1980s aired way ahead of its premiere date, and certainly, the audience is not disappointed. Based on the true incidents that led to the stock market crash of 1987, the Don Cheadle (Maurice Monroe or Mo), Andrew Rannells (as Blair Pfaff), and Regina Hall (as Dawn Darcy) starring 'Black Monday' takes a look at the group of outcasts who take Wall Street by storm just a few years before it crashed. Coming from writers Jordan Cahan and David Caspe, and directed by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, the first episode which had an early premiere on December 28, left us with some extremely convoluted characters and a raging stock market.
