In a flashforward, Andrew "Coop" Cooper wakes up in a mansion next to a dead body, and hastily cleans up the blood. Four months earlier, Coop, a wealthy hedge fund manager, is abruptly fired from his job by his boss, Jack Bailey, over a fake HR complaint from Liv Cross, a junior employee he consensually slept with months prior. Coop soon learns that Jack fired him simply to absorb his accounts. Coop is divorced from his ex-wife Mel after having caught her cheating on him with his best friend Nick. Since then, Coop has moved into a rental home and had an on-and-off sexual relationship with his neighbor Sam Levitt, herself going through a chaotic divorce, while also looking after his wayward sister Ali. During a neighborhood party hosted by the Millers, Coop excuses himself and wanders the house, finding a roll of cash that he steals for himself and uses to buy a drumkit originally intended for his teenage son. He later returns to the Millers' home after they leave for vacation and steals a Patek Philippe watch alongside more money.
