HBO's hit series 'Industry' Season 4 Episode 5 is set to premiere earlier than expected, answering several questions the fourth episode opened up. 'Industry' Season 4 Episode 4 delivered a shocking twist when Rishi Ramdani (Sagar Radia) attempted suicide. He survived, ending up with both legs broken and getting arrested, leaving his fate uncertain. As fans anxiously wait to see what will happen with Rishi, HBO's announcement of an early release makes the wait much easier.

'Industry' Episode 5, 'Eyes Without a Face', will premiere globally on the streaming platform on Friday, February 6, at 12:01 am PT/3:01 pm ET. This early release comes ahead of their scheduled HBO airings, which will take place on Super Bowl Sunday, February 8, giving viewers a chance to catch the episodes before their traditional broadcast, as per Warner Bros Discovery.

Talking about Rishi's unfortunate fate in 'Industry' Season 4, the market maker's dark past resurfaced when his mother-in-law asked him to sign a document changing his young son's surname, cutting him out of his life. Already estranged due to his wife Diana's (Emily Barber) death and mounting debts, Rishi reluctantly accepted the situation. Later, during a drug-fueled night, he encounters James Dycker (Charlie Heaton), who tragically dies from the drugs Rishi provided at his apartment, as per DM Talkies.

Overwhelmed by fear and depression, Rishi attempts suicide by jumping from a balcony but survives, getting arrested after police respond to a noise complaint. However, the situation remains mysterious, as a third man had been at the party and left before things escalated, and the large police presence suggests something more serious. 

Talking about Rishi's motives behind following Dycker in Episode 4, Radia shared, "He doesn't do things in halves. As a result, he then indulges Dycker, and they get into this moment together where the alcohol and the drugs ensue. It takes them to another place. They both relish themselves in these environments—they're leaning on each other for a moment and then it just explodes. They're just trying to have a good time, trying to let off steam. They need to disappear for a second, and then ultimately there are massive consequences," as per The Hollywood Reporter.

The remaining episodes of 'Industry' Season 4 are scheduled to air on Sundays at 9 pm ET: with Episode 6, titled 'Dear Henry' will drop on February 15, Episode 7 ('Points of Emphasis') on February 22; and Episode 8, 'Both, And' on March 1, as per Decider. The fifth 'Industry' Season 4 episode will stream on HBO Max. A subscription starts at $10.99/month with ads or $18.49/month for ad-free streaming.
