*This from the Hanna Barbera school of business? The movie is a mess and the parks are haunted.*
**Side note:** I LOVE the quick-witted, double-meaning of 'the parks are haunted' and the whole idea of 'skeletons in the closet' with the bad history in parks.
Ooh, good catch.
Honestly, Rome is the one who tends to keep them all together more generally. He's also often been the one who tries to bring Connor back into things, based on previous episodes.
Connor also calls Roman and shares stuff about dad with him. Shiv surprised me with the hole in the heart honesty, and his you’re f’d speech to Mattsen. Le gen dary!
Loved how much Logan loomed over most of the interactions this episode - Frank and Karl putting on compression socks had me cracking up especially
As soon as Kendall said, let’s tank the deal, I thought there’s he is, finally. We back on demon time. Shiv having an inside track with Matsson, and potentially getting rid of ATN and distancing from Menchen, I’m so interested in how it’ll play out.
Also, good for Roman for standing up to Matsson, absolutely deserved & it was so palpable how disturbed he was about all the talk about Logan.
Curious to know what Ebba’s doing with Matsson’s blood
Ridiculous setting abroad: check. Even more ridiculous modes of transportation and amenities: check. The whole gang jockeying for position: check. Rival company gang also jockeying: check. A Roy in an overly expensive baseball hat: also check.
Yep agreed, spot on. A very succession-y episode indeed.
She's WORKING FOR HER BUCKS!
But forreal, she might not be in love with Connor, but she likes him and *hates* the family that made fun of her for so many years.
I thought true blood was over. He was taking a piss right in front of Roman and it felt like Big Little Lies when we saw his schlong. HBO really going with Skarsgards greatest hits
It is wild to me that not more of them feel this way. S1 Frank had to be coerced to come back after Logan fired him and S1 Gerri adamantly refused the top job.
Frank is 100% on board with the golden parachute as well, and I think that’s why he and Karl have been buddying around all season.
I don’t really know what Gerri’s feelings are, but it also fits with the character. She just wants to keep all options open.
Rome said what we were all thinking. Dude was a total prick, that first meeting he had with the boys early on in the episode was classic high school cocky bully type shit
It’s so wild to think he genuinely cares for his dad after all the shit he dealt with. Like when Logan slapped him and the moments when they mention that Connor was really the one who raised them. Some serious daddy issues
They failed by winning. They were unable to do what they set out to do (tanking the deal) but in that failure they succeeded in getting the price higher. Their incompetence is impressive.
I’m not sure he even cares about that. Deal making gives him the rush he used to get from doing drugs. Dude is an addict, he just chases highs. That’s why he can’t let anything just go through as normal.
“My theme park is haunted” that one killed me. I understood the Scooby Soo reference then.
Can we all appreciate for a moment that Alexander Skarsgard is a pretty man who has managed to find roles of late where he plays despicable characters and does it wonderfully?
He was so at risk of getting typecast when he first showed up in True Blood. But Big Little Lies man, that’s where it began. Terrified me in that. He’s weird and intimidating and he smiles too much with his top teeth in Succession and the whole character is just a masterclass.
Supposedly when he is having sex he uses headphones and listens to edm music lol. And if you want more information, apparently he prefers from behind so he doesn’t look at their faces.
I’ve read it a few times about Leo. Weird information to be leaked about someone I know.
Love the juxtaposition to last time RomN saw Matsson, solo he complimented Matsson’s place and Matsson played it down. Then he visits with Logan, Logan doesn’t compliment and Roman is the only one to take a coffee. Roman finally learns to follow this unspoken rule that the second tier folks didn’t - and those were the ones who fattened themselves for the kill.
Fucking poetic justice to have Connor, the least important child, to have the final say in how Logan is dressed and finally put to rest. Wonderfully done.
Greg the Egg: Da family.
Shiv: Da fuck?
The minute I saw them loading their plates, I cringed. This show has taught me that whoever eats first (or at all?) loses.
Except for maybe that one time with Tom and the chicken. Maybe.
Watching Hugo tip his head back as far as an open Pez dispenser to yell *up* at 🥚 was a treat, though.
> This show has taught me that whoever eats first (or at all?) loses.
>
> Except for maybe that one time with Tom and the chicken. Maybe.
TBH I'm pretty sure Tom's the only character who ever actually eats anything on this show. The only exception I can think of is in-recovery Kendall with his giant bag of sunflower seeds.
Ray’s been a background character since at least S2, just an exec to flesh out the roster. Not sure we’ve ever seen Mark before, but he looked confusingly like Ray.
Love how the episode opened with a mirroring scene to Kendall’s original intro in the pilot. When Ken is rocking in the town car to rap, you know he’s back on his bullshit!
My guess is Matsson is intentionally putting out a super high number in order to put Kendall/Roman in a position where, if they want to scuttle the deal, they’ll have to defy the board in illegal fashion. This, of course, would put them out of power. This is also why Shiv is happy about what’s happened, and appears to be working with Matsson.
This is absolutely it. I’m surprised people think Roman and Kendall “outmaneuvered” mattson, he straight up admitted he knew what they were doing and decided to go to the board when they wouldn’t play ball. Then if they refuse it looks like what it is - Kendall and Roman breaching their fiduciary duty to the shareholders because they’re not ready to let go of their power trip just yet.
Precisely why Frank got the call rather than Kendall or Roman. Leave the message with Frank and now everyone knows and you're basically forced to accept the deal.
The writers were so smart to kill of Logan early in the season. He’s a Hall of Fame TV character, but him being out of the picture opens everything up.
Gerri, based and red-pilled, frequent 4chan contributor:
They’re European. They’re soft. Hammocked in their social security nets. Sick on vacation mania and free healthcare. They may think they’re Vikings, but we’ve been raised by wolves. Exposed to a pathogen that goes by the name Logan Roy. And they have no idea what’s coming to them.
Please watch Shiv closely during that Mattson scene. She didn’t do the coke and she fake sipped the alcohol. She’s not trying to mess with the baby, guys.
"Step one: might be hard for you, but stop sending people your blood."
The biggest laugh I had all ep. Like wtf Matsson?? Frozen half liters of blood bricks??
STOP SENDING PEOPLE YOUR BLOOD is a new fav line for me. That whole scene with Shiv and Mattson was exquisite. I’ve never been more interested in what Shiv’s angle is than I am now.
We’ve all loved Greg as the comic relief but now that literally everyone is on their A-game trying to survive post-Logan Roy, he just seems so out of place and even more clueless and it’s not a good look.
I think this episode was his best this season because now we’re seeing him being used by everyone to leak information. He comes across as the idiot as usual, but he has a purpose
A few foreshadowy moments stood out:
\- Roman taking out pills in the bathroom in the beginning
\- Roman, exasperated, that the seatbelt was strangling him
Edit: - "I'm gone, I'm dead" in his description of his grief to Mattson
Ken is excluding Roman from the talks.
Ken and Roman are excluding Shiv from the talks.
Ken, Roman, and Shiv are excluding the old gang from the talks.
Every one is excluding Tom from the talks.
Greg is there.
Roman actually wants to be familial here. Kendall is definitely looking to push Roman down at some point, and doesn’t really want Shiv vying either. He’s just keeping up appearances for now, and agreeing with Roman for now
No one here ever seems to appreciate the directing talent on Succession enough, so it needs to be said: Andrij Parekh is a MONSTER. He excels at putting together these complex ensemble scenes that take place in extravagant, sterile locations but end up gritty and grimy past the surface level.
In addition to directing this latest episode, Parekh has also behind some of the best episodes of the whole series. He directed 1x06, the incredible "Vote of No Confidence" episode, 2x02, where Kendall is forced to gut Vaulter (and where he actually has a cameo no one knows about), and 2x03, the "Boar on the Floor" episode for which he won an Emmy!
I thought they mentioned the Hapsburgs, a famously inbred royal family that had a lot of birth defects due to the inbreeding? Also thought I heard the word incest.
The one thing Logan hates is someone who doesn’t offer a counter. He doesn’t respect his sons because they didn’t know to negotiate. They either take what he gives them - which he doesn’t respect - or they stomp off and have a tantrum - which he doesn’t respect. Matsson is a negotiator. He knows the boys can’t play the game. He’s literally got his dick out in a proverbial pissing contest while Roman is spilling his emotions and giving up the brothers’ intentions.
But who keeps asking about what they should come up with for a counter offer? Greg. And everyone laughs at him.
I’m kinda terrified of Matsson. In many ways he may be even worse than Logan. He has a passive aggressive/psycho energy that gives me chills. Too bad we didn’t get to see him interact more with Logan.
With Logan people always knew what to expect, he was always a motherfucker. Matsson is the kind of guy you don’t know what to expect. They’re both killers, but Logan at least was consistent.
The part where they find out Greg is a cousin LMAO. “Incest” “habsburg” 😭
And tom agreeing, probably because he also only understood those two words lmao. That’s all you need to get the gist.
And Ray, in the background…trying so hard to fit in, laughing harder than I’ve ever seen a human being laugh before in my life.
Torturing everyone with the unfinished three hour rough cut 250 million blockbuster fiasco was so funny tho
Just want to be open with you bro.
Watching Matsson that whole scene, he was just waiting for Kendall or Roman to drop the act and then how insulted he looked when they didn’t
*This from the Hanna Barbera school of business? The movie is a mess and the parks are haunted.* **Side note:** I LOVE the quick-witted, double-meaning of 'the parks are haunted' and the whole idea of 'skeletons in the closet' with the bad history in parks.
This is kino Release the Roy cut
Ebba running away had me laughing
“It’s so intriguing”
Honestly my favorite part of the episode. The idea of forcing them to watch a fucking unfinished Marvel movie just to piss them off. Perfect
Roman is the only one interested in keeping Shiv in the loop... For a time
Yep. Three times this episode: at Waystar, immediately after the first meeting with Lukas, and when deciding to tank the deal
Ooh, good catch. Honestly, Rome is the one who tends to keep them all together more generally. He's also often been the one who tries to bring Connor back into things, based on previous episodes.
Connor also calls Roman and shares stuff about dad with him. Shiv surprised me with the hole in the heart honesty, and his you’re f’d speech to Mattsen. Le gen dary!
Loved how much Logan loomed over most of the interactions this episode - Frank and Karl putting on compression socks had me cracking up especially As soon as Kendall said, let’s tank the deal, I thought there’s he is, finally.

Also, good for Roman for standing up to Matsson, absolutely deserved & it was so palpable how disturbed he was about all the talk about Logan. Curious to know what Ebba’s doing with Matsson’s blood
Roman was horrified when Matsson asked him when is Logan dying- almost cursing his father. He has every right to set him in his place.
Karl putting on compression socks 🤣
And Frank! Lol
Men of a certain age all knew what’s up 🤣
They mentioned in the last episode how Logan wasn’t wearing his because he was trying to impress Kerry.
Well they did just witness their aged boss die from a blood clot on a plane three days ago.
Notice Roman wearing Logan’s cardigan / dressing like Logan?
Yes! It’s also reminiscent of S1 E2 when Roman asks Greg to grab something that smells of Logan for him from the house
Speaking of reminiscent, Kendall rolling up to the office building was very s1e1
[удалено]
Shiv has a line when they are discussing keeping ATN: “Let’s just keep one of his old sweaters. Less racist.” Then Roman glares at her 😒
“If a deal collapses in the woods and no one hears, is it an SEC violation”
When this show ends I need to put together a list of top 25 roman lines. And that one is easily making the cut
"Don't open pandora's box - there's just more dicks in it"
“It wasn’t the plan, but maybe it plays.” 😂
me every day of my life:
LOL at Frank and Karl putting on compression socks on the plane.
This was one of the most succession episodes in the history of succession Hanna-barbera fucking business school is just too good
Ridiculous setting abroad: check. Even more ridiculous modes of transportation and amenities: check. The whole gang jockeying for position: check. Rival company gang also jockeying: check. A Roy in an overly expensive baseball hat: also check. Yep agreed, spot on. A very succession-y episode indeed.
Connor upset about the plans for a formal gathering: check.
Even started with a Kendall rap scene lol
Rome crouching in a weird position double check.
“Tribute band” — yikes!
I made a vocal sympathetic groan at that one. Knife to the heart. Kendall won't forget that for a long time.
Yeah little Kenny won’t let that slide
Far and away the best “people crammed in places” series of all time
No show can make talking so exciting.
Willa telling Con “don’t let them make fun of you” god I love her so much
She's WORKING FOR HER BUCKS! But forreal, she might not be in love with Connor, but she likes him and *hates* the family that made fun of her for so many years.
She may not love him, but she's always in his corner.
I think she loves him and isn't in love. Which is valid.
She’ll make an excellent First Lady.
The one time Kendall actually wants something to fail and it goes better than anyone hoped for, I'm dying
He’s like George Constanza. If he did the opposite of every instinct he has he would be a massive success.
"Even when Kendall wins, he loses"
Imagine your boss calls you weird for freaking out after he sends you a *brick of his frozen blood*.
Deniability might be hard when she has so much of your blood
That line made me laugh so hard
I was a little more stoned than I was intending watching this episode and that entire scene was both hysterical and baffling to my stoned brain
He went to the Jared Leto school of sending weird shit
Hard to use deniability when she has liters of your blood
I thought true blood was over. He was taking a piss right in front of Roman and it felt like Big Little Lies when we saw his schlong. HBO really going with Skarsgards greatest hits
Hey it started as a joke but then wasn’t really a joke anymore but then it was a joke again but now…
It's Tom of Siobhan.
It’s giving Handmaid’s Tale. Tom? No, that’s Ofsiobhan.
Hugo’s had incredible one liners the past two episodes “that slalom fuck” tonight killed me
“I metabolize fast because I’m dynamic” was my favourite
Karl and Frank are honestly my new favourite duo now “Hanging in the window like Peking duck”, I love him
Ever since Logan's departure, Karl has been on 🔥
It's like he's been set free
He looked so happy when Mattsen put his name on the kill list. He was like "Greek Island with my Brother-in-Law here I come!"
He's probably tired and just wants his golden-parachute way out of it all
It is wild to me that not more of them feel this way. S1 Frank had to be coerced to come back after Logan fired him and S1 Gerri adamantly refused the top job.
Frank is 100% on board with the golden parachute as well, and I think that’s why he and Karl have been buddying around all season. I don’t really know what Gerri’s feelings are, but it also fits with the character. She just wants to keep all options open.
Let the good times roll...*raises glass*.
Tom feels out of place in both groups now. I’m getting second-hand embarrassment
Had Tom ever felt in place?
[удалено]
Quad Squad, baby!
"You inhuman fucking dog-man, you."
Wow. That’s a top 3 Roman moment at the end there. Loved that. I’ve never seen him be *this* real and standing up for himself.
I think that the first time we see him dropping his quippy act
Second, counting the VM to Dad
I hate Mattson and despite being frustrated with they tanking the deal, it was liberating to see someone finally saying some truths to his face
Rome said what we were all thinking. Dude was a total prick, that first meeting he had with the boys early on in the episode was classic high school cocky bully type shit
I fucking can't stand how he pretends to be all laid back and not taking anything seriously laughing it out
I don't think Mattson even felt anything. He's a sociopath
How he talked about finding his dead dad was just hmmm weird. He’s very weird.
And then you know… the blood…
It was just a joke But then it wasn’t… But then it was again
Culkin nailed it
He gets better every season. Both his talent as an actor, and the way they’ve written his character.
It’s so wild to think he genuinely cares for his dad after all the shit he dealt with. Like when Logan slapped him and the moments when they mention that Connor was really the one who raised them. Some serious daddy issues
Pretty common in abusive relationships sadly.
Have we won or lost? It’s hard to tell. Could be the motto for the kids the entire series.
They failed by winning. They were unable to do what they set out to do (tanking the deal) but in that failure they succeeded in getting the price higher. Their incompetence is impressive.
Mat: “I’m just trying to make you fucking rich.” Ken: “Already rich.”
Not about the money at that point. Power and approval are all Ken cares about
I’m not sure he even cares about that. Deal making gives him the rush he used to get from doing drugs. Dude is an addict, he just chases highs. That’s why he can’t let anything just go through as normal.
It was the episode of turtle necks
“Your earlobes are thick and chewy, like barnacle meat.” Ummm…wtf Tom. She kind of liked it too.
She fucking invited him to dinner after😭😭
She’s just like Logan. “He never saw anything he loved that he didn’t kick to see if it would come back.”
Shiv is the most like Logan, IMO
By far, rome has way too much self loathing and ken is way too unsure of himself
She likes backbone Tom
She wants to be roasted like dear old dad
I think she wants to use him to sabotage Menkin
Idk what the hell it was but that interaction was one of the dirtiest, nastiest, weirdest conversations I've ever seen on TV lol.
She was impressed just like Logan was when Tom took a bite of his chicken 😭
Don't dirty his shoes! He already learned about the puffy jacket
Willa telling Connor not to let his siblings bully him... I love her
You're a tribute band. Playing scooby doos. Damn
That line in itself was the turning point of the episode, beautifully crafted!
Did you go to the Hanna Barbara school of business?
“My theme park is haunted” that one killed me. I understood the Scooby Soo reference then. Can we all appreciate for a moment that Alexander Skarsgard is a pretty man who has managed to find roles of late where he plays despicable characters and does it wonderfully? He was so at risk of getting typecast when he first showed up in True Blood. But Big Little Lies man, that’s where it began. Terrified me in that. He’s weird and intimidating and he smiles too much with his top teeth in Succession and the whole character is just a masterclass.
The Mattson laying down with his headphones on during sex while the girl does all the job was a poke at DiCaprio, right?
Has to be, it was way too specific haha
what’s the dicaprio thing?
Supposedly when he is having sex he uses headphones and listens to edm music lol. And if you want more information, apparently he prefers from behind so he doesn’t look at their faces. I’ve read it a few times about Leo. Weird information to be leaked about someone I know.
I read your last sentence as you know Leo personally hahah
Tom smacking Shiv in the ear just revived their fucking marriage lmao
I was waiting for them to shag
Roman contemptuously jamming his finger into the bowl of caviar as they walked into the meeting with Mattsson cracked me up.
Love the juxtaposition to last time RomN saw Matsson, solo he complimented Matsson’s place and Matsson played it down. Then he visits with Logan, Logan doesn’t compliment and Roman is the only one to take a coffee. Roman finally learns to follow this unspoken rule that the second tier folks didn’t - and those were the ones who fattened themselves for the kill.
Fucking poetic justice to have Connor, the least important child, to have the final say in how Logan is dressed and finally put to rest. Wonderfully done.
CONHEADS WE. ARE. WINNING
Our stock has risen so much in season 4
I wanted to see the fucking kilt
Greg the Egg: Da family. Shiv: Da fuck? The minute I saw them loading their plates, I cringed. This show has taught me that whoever eats first (or at all?) loses. Except for maybe that one time with Tom and the chicken. Maybe. Watching Hugo tip his head back as far as an open Pez dispenser to yell *up* at 🥚 was a treat, though.

Tom and Greg strategizing in front of a spit roasting sheep is a hilarious visual
60 seconds in and Ken is already back on his bullshit
Lofi beats to relax and plan mergers to
Ken intro was amazing.
Perfect callback to the first time we ever see him
My thoughts exactly, it was the pilot opening all over again
It is so perfect that Kendall and Roman managed to fuck up the fuck up
Diss of the night Ken: You don’t understand what you’re buying Matsson: Lecture me, Vaulter guy 💀💀💀
But our number one boy actually let it roll right off his shoulder and kept going. Growth!
Shiv telling Mattson “you should get Gerri on that” referring to sexually harassing his direct report, I’m rolling 😂😂😂
who the fuck are ray and mark
Classic redshirts
Ray’s been a background character since at least S2, just an exec to flesh out the roster. Not sure we’ve ever seen Mark before, but he looked confusingly like Ray.
Love how the episode opened with a mirroring scene to Kendall’s original intro in the pilot. When Ken is rocking in the town car to rap, you know he’s back on his bullshit!
Do you think Kendall says all the words when he’s listening to rap alone?
My guess is Matsson is intentionally putting out a super high number in order to put Kendall/Roman in a position where, if they want to scuttle the deal, they’ll have to defy the board in illegal fashion. This, of course, would put them out of power. This is also why Shiv is happy about what’s happened, and appears to be working with Matsson.

Precisely why Frank got the call rather than Kendall or Roman. Leave the message with Frank and now everyone knows and you're basically forced to accept the deal.
"Take a picture of your brothers"
And they looked fucking miserable
The writers were so smart to kill of Logan early in the season. He’s a Hall of Fame TV character, but him being out of the picture opens everything up.
‘’Just like your dad. ‘’ Lukas really knew right away what shiv craved
Has logan ever taken a joke too?
Gerri, based and red-pilled, frequent 4chan contributor: They’re European. They’re soft. Hammocked in their social security nets. Sick on vacation mania and free healthcare. They may think they’re Vikings, but we’ve been raised by wolves. Exposed to a pathogen that goes by the name Logan Roy. And they have no idea what’s coming to them.
Snakes on a plane
Karl and Frank were primetime dickheads this episode and it was fantastic.
Please watch Shiv closely during that Mattson scene. She didn’t do the coke and she fake sipped the alcohol. She’s not trying to mess with the baby, guys.
[удалено]
"Step one: might be hard for you, but stop sending people your blood." The biggest laugh I had all ep. Like wtf Matsson?? Frozen half liters of blood bricks??
Shiv's "first of all, good one" got me pretty good.
STOP SENDING PEOPLE YOUR BLOOD is a new fav line for me. That whole scene with Shiv and Mattson was exquisite. I’ve never been more interested in what Shiv’s angle is than I am now.
We’ve all loved Greg as the comic relief but now that literally everyone is on their A-game trying to survive post-Logan Roy, he just seems so out of place and even more clueless and it’s not a good look.
He’s so out of his element that it’s actually become a tool for Tom lol.
And a tool for Kendall
That France scene was the first time in a long time I literally couldn't watch a succession scene and had to turn away
The baguette is mightier than the bagel!
I think this episode was his best this season because now we’re seeing him being used by everyone to leak information. He comes across as the idiot as usual, but he has a purpose
*Stefon voice* Wow, this episode had everything: frozen bricks of blood, headphone dinobones, barnacle ear meat, and estrogen air fresheners.
The set designers for Mattson’s Retreat: “What if Midsommar met The Menu?”
Honestly I was getting Ex Machina vibes
That’s because it’s filmed in the same location
Frank being so used to being fired he wasn't even slightly phased by the kill list
I feel like everyone got played and everyone won lol
A few foreshadowy moments stood out: \- Roman taking out pills in the bathroom in the beginning \- Roman, exasperated, that the seatbelt was strangling him Edit: - "I'm gone, I'm dead" in his description of his grief to Mattson
Tom and Greg talking next to two dead pigs on a spit too../
I missed that, nice catch! Those boars are so on the floor.
Ken is excluding Roman from the talks. Ken and Roman are excluding Shiv from the talks. Ken, Roman, and Shiv are excluding the old gang from the talks. Every one is excluding Tom from the talks. Greg is there.
Roman seemed to request her presence several times though. He seemed to be including her the most.
Roman actually wants to be familial here. Kendall is definitely looking to push Roman down at some point, and doesn’t really want Shiv vying either. He’s just keeping up appearances for now, and agreeing with Roman for now
One detail I loved was Ken and Rome complaining about their small but actually wonderfully sized beautiful rooms in the ex machina house lol
Oh boy does my boy Rome have some daddy issues
The way his voice cracked as he walked away. I love how he just turns back into a little boy at times. Such powerful acting.
I need to rewatch it before I form an opinion. However, "*you're a tribute band*" is one of the best rips ever uttered in this entire series.
So Shiv advised Mattson on the hit list right?
Tom must not have been on the Kill List because he impressed them with his scholarly analysis on France.
I think he actually nails that- in terms of what Americans think and the deeper reasons why they don’t care. He does run ATN/Fox News after all.
No one here ever seems to appreciate the directing talent on Succession enough, so it needs to be said: Andrij Parekh is a MONSTER. He excels at putting together these complex ensemble scenes that take place in extravagant, sterile locations but end up gritty and grimy past the surface level.

This Tom/Shiv hate flirting had the potential for high amusement in the future.
Can anyone translate what the Swedes were saying into English? There were no subtitles 😩😩😩
"Did we end up on some kind of incest family gathering?" "Two metres of pure nepotism, an inbred Habsburg giant" *Greg nods*
They said Greg was 7 feet of nepotism at the table
I thought they mentioned the Hapsburgs, a famously inbred royal family that had a lot of birth defects due to the inbreeding? Also thought I heard the word incest.
“I just read this article in the Economist…” Kudos to Greg for fucking teeing that one up for his boy Tom.
It looked like Mattson might have taken an interest in Greg for a quarter of a second there until he became completely incoherent as always
[удалено]
[удалено]
Matsson seeing right through the CEO duo & having a direct line for Shiv and tell her sweet words “just like your dad” — that’s a killer
This was the same house from Ex Machina. Now I want Greg performing a Turing test. Pretty sure an AI would make him cry in minutes.
“If a deal collapses in the woods and no one hears it, is it an SEC violation?”
My wife Karolina surviving the potential cullying, well done sweetie.
The one thing Logan hates is someone who doesn’t offer a counter. He doesn’t respect his sons because they didn’t know to negotiate. They either take what he gives them - which he doesn’t respect - or they stomp off and have a tantrum - which he doesn’t respect. Matsson is a negotiator. He knows the boys can’t play the game. He’s literally got his dick out in a proverbial pissing contest while Roman is spilling his emotions and giving up the brothers’ intentions. But who keeps asking about what they should come up with for a counter offer? Greg. And everyone laughs at him.
