It’s got to come out that Roman had fired Geri this episode, yeah? Showing he was on Logan’s side before the board meeting.

Good episode. I laughed out loud multiple times.
On conveying Logan was a terrible human being but not a pedophile: “he didn’t even like to hug his grandkids.”
Greg’s perfectly timed, “Nonetheless…”
Connor’s “mi casa es su casa.”
Those are just a few.

My Sunday nights recently have been Sandition on PBS Masterpiece to Succession. It makes for some whiplash and wacky dreams 🤣

That last scene with Kendall and Hugo. He went in the bathroom and came out as Logan.

Goddamit Bookshelves, now I'm obsessed with getting my brain to see the white/gold version of this dress and not blue/black.

Logan was so full of rage and spite that if he was going to cross it out, he would have scribbled on it, scratched so hard he’d rip the paper and probably rip up the paper screaming “fuck off”. So it’s an underline

I am actually reaaaaally irritated with Shiv’s pregnancy.
This show felt above that trope so I audibly groaned during the phone call. I hope they do something masterful with story about it, at least.
Kerry was willing to marry an 85 year old man.
Marcia was supposed to be shopping in Milan forever!

I agree and it might be because Sarah Snook is pregnant in real life and they wanted to write it in? I don't know. And yeah, that was an underline. I liked seeing Roman be kind to Kerry in that moment. He can be very emotionally sensitive. "Marcia, that was unnecessary, yeah?" Even though Greg is not a likeable character, I will never get sick of watching Tom fuck with him.

One of the recaps that I read said something about the way that Roman asked Kerry (twice?) for her personal number during that scene. I vaguely remember that. Anyway, the writer was saying something about how he probably has some sort of ulterior motive, besides just kindness… I thought that was an interesting theory. What does Kerry know, etc?
I am usually annoyed by pregnancy tropes, but I feel like in this case, there is a lot of potential ground to cover in terms of her own relationships with her parents, her divorce, etc. I’m like the “I’ll allow it” meme.

I’m kinda rewatching the first season right now and this episode was so reminiscent of it. When Logan was incapacitated, Kendall wanted to take lead (as at that point he was being groomed as successor) and Shiv argued against it initially. Again she claimed Logan no longer wanted Kendall in charge.
It makes me wonder if the patterns we saw in the first season are going to continue to show up.

I spent the entire episode in denial. My mind is still blown that it went down like that. I was with Roman for a long time, like...he's not really dead! He can't be!

I've seen some comments that people thought Tom was being sweet this episode but I thought he was slimy. Trying to get any angle in with anyone.

I sincerely dislike Tom, but I do think he was being genuine with Shiv on the stairs. Maybe I just want to believe the best of him?
I actually thought that Shiv asking him to leave the airport last week together was a move on her part. Tom was heavily favored by Logan up to that point and she was not. I thought they were scheming. But, that seems to not be the case this week, I don’t think.
I want to hear the Kerry secrets that Roman will extract if he ever can get her personal phone number!

At the end of the day, I do think Tom loves Shiv.

That's the thing about this show - you can see both sides. I do think he cares for Shiv. But he also chose Logan over her essentially after the wedding. I can't imagine marrying into this family, such a constant mental battle trying to figure out everyone's motives.

Tom was heavily favored by Logan up to that point and she was not. I don't think he was so much heavily favored as he provided useful information at a critical time.
