    Episode 3: The Underworld explores how organized crime evolved from street gangs into sophisticated transnational enterprises deeply integrated with legitimate financial systems. The episode examines the American Mafia's infiltration of labor unions and legitimate business, Japan's Yakuza operating in quasi-legal spaces while embedded in corporate culture, and Mexico's Sinaloa Cartel wielding violence and corruption to move billions in drugs while building social support. The investigation culminates in exposing the global money laundering infrastructure worth trillions annually, revealing how prestigious banks, shell companies, luxury real estate markets, and professional gatekeepers enable criminal proceeds to flow through legitimate financial systems. The episode demonstrates how the underworld isn't separate from legitimate economy but thoroughly intertwined with institutions we interact with daily.

    Episode 2: The Corporations shifts focus to systematic corporate fraud, examining four landmark cases that reveal how private companies prioritize profit over people through deliberate deception. The episode dissects Enron's culture of financial manipulation and accounting fraud that erased billions in shareholder value, Volkswagen's sophisticated defeat device programming that cheated emissions tests while poisoning the air, Siemens's decade-long global bribery operation spanning multiple countries and industries, and Wells Fargo's pressure-driven fake accounts scandal that pushed thousands of employees into fraud. Through analysis of internal documents, corporate cultures, and failed oversight systems, the episode exposes common patterns: aggressive targets creating incentives for misconduct, complexity hiding fraud, gatekeepers failing their duties, and punishments rarely matching crimes.

    Episode 1: The Empires examines government corruption on a massive scale, focusing on Brazil's Petrobras scandal, one of the largest corruption investigations in history. The episode traces how a systematic operation involving construction companies, Petrobras executives, and politicians siphoned nearly six billion dollars through inflated contracts and kickbacks over more than a decade. Through detailed analysis of the cartel mechanics, the plea bargain cascade that exposed the scheme, and the political earthquake that followed including presidential impeachments and hundreds of arrests, this episode reveals how state capture operates as carefully constructed architecture rather than isolated criminality. The investigation demonstrates both the possibility of accountability and its complications when anti-corruption efforts become politicized weapons.
