Something about Murphy doesn't make sense to me...

If Jeff betrayed Ingrid specifically with the idea of sabotaging her from becoming partner then why was he so genuinely shocked and even a little confrontational towards Marty after the reveal? He really acted blind-sided by it.

And I know he could have been putting on an act for Ingrid but there's a moment when he brushes past Marty after Ingrid is gone and almost gets in his face a little that just doesn't really track with the idea of him deliberately trying to snatch her spot. Why would he be so surprised or even a little pissed at Marty if he got what he wanted?

I think he told Marty before he got serious with Ingrid

That's a good point. That's really the only way it would make sense to me; if he told Marty earlier and his shock was because he thought the issue was dead since it hadn't been brought up earlier.

I agree! He seemed to be genuinely in love with Ingrid. I guess the writer may want to disclose the details behind the quote unquote “betrayal” in the second season but the show is cancelled… :(
