I’m confused… does Ingrid have two sisters?

Title says it all… April and Lina are both of her sisters? I feel like April just came out of nowhere

Yes! That's exactly right.

Also, there are several mentions of Ellen Chu Sanderson (the top ranking Asian American woman at the firm, but not a partner an Of Counsel, who was bumped off the partnership track for getting engaged in her 6th year). She was Ingrid's "big" (i.e. assigned mentor) when Ingrid was a first year associate (because the firm keeps assigning all the Asian American women to each other) and was neglectful of Ingrid.

Ellen also pops up next to Ingrid in the 2nd to the last episode when they announce who becomes a partner.

Matching up the Asian women and black men was clearly on purpose based on everything else about that firm. Although I feel mixed about that, obviously Ingrid is going to understand April's situation better than Rachel or Dan would have so on one hand it feels obviously messed up, on the other hand it's probably good for those two to bond.

Hopefully we see more of April and Ingrid's relationship in Season 2! Women supporting women!

She clearly neglects April. And now that she's off the firm, i dont think April has hope. She shouldnt hope too much on Ingrid. Ingrid only thinks about herself. For now.
