How fucking tense was that uncomfortable silence between Ken and Logan, as well as their endless walk back btw? I love how this series can occasionally nail suspense from seemingly simple situations if they're bereft of context, like dragging Logan's walk out to the point where you're unsure if he's even going to have a heart attack or they're just toying with the viewer. That was a nice touch too because they've basically ignored his health issues since season 1.
Next episode looks like a showstopper.

How is it that every new week just gives us yet another all-timer Greg episode? My guy is on fire this season.
And Conor insisting he be the one to talk to the President fucking killed me. Cannot wait to see where the rest of the season goes for him.

What was everyone's interpretation of the final scene with Kendall? A lot of people online seem to think it was Logan just trying to humiliate Ken by making him wait only to eventually not even show up after Ken attempted to fuck up the shareholders meeting, with the implication of Logan blocking his number permanently meaning he's finally ready to go after him now that they've secured the company. It's really sad how pathetic they're making Kendall look this season, I realise he's not a good person and only doing it for opportunistic reasons but I desperately want him to get one over Logan at this rate.

Cannot wait to see where the rest of the season goes for him. This week really showed how much the company has corrupted him, going after Ewen (the only person who has looked out for him with genuine intentions).

Cannot wait to see where the rest of the season goes for him. This week really showed how much the company has corrupted him, going after Ewen (the only person who has looked out for him with genuine intentions). Absolutely. Feels like we're watching a downfall of sorts for who was previously the only somewhat good-natured member of the family. We should've seen it coming, and it's hilarious to watch, but it's still kind of a bummer for Greg. Will also be interesting to see how he responds to possibly being burned by Kendall - a thread that's brought up early in this episode and then kind of dropped, should have some killer payoff down the line.

It's really sad how pathetic they're making Kendall look this season, I realise he's not a good person and only doing it for opportunistic reasons but I desperately want him to get one over Logan at this rate. Yeah, Kendall has been looking increasingly pathetic and desperate by the week and at this point I'm not sure what moves he has left to play, and based on the promo it looks like he'll only continue in that trajectory next week. We're only halfway through though so I'm hoping/assuming he still has some strike back left in him.

I'm not entirely sure exactly how much Ewan looked out for Greg. To start, he clearly intended to use Greg as a pawn in the game against Logan, not even worrying about him going to jail. Second, it's obvious from the way he acts Greg didn't really have access to money growing up, despite Ewan's wealth, so I doubt he did much, if anything for his grandson. Not that I think he should have been spoiled or anything, but if Ewan had done more for Greg, I doubt he would even be at Waystar in the first place.
As for Kendall, things are going too badly for him not to have a win sooner or later- my guess is someone from the other side flips, maybe Tom or Shiv, and gives him something.

The music during the final scene/end credits was soooo good. Have we heard that piece before??

As someone who's been around a lot of it in my life, I have to say that Strong's portrayal of someone in a manic episode is fucking uncanny.

Greg gets a win! Even if for the wrong reasons, but he gets it. Also, there's no way Kendall will simply take the offer.

The dick pic or the possible drowning ? The dick pic of course. Unbelievable stuff. Still waiting to find out what happened to have more of a reaction on the Kendall front.

Roman is such a shit-heel, he deserves any fallout from the dick pic. Kendall's not dead, he shows up in the preview for next week's episode. This season so far has probaly been the most uncomfortable one yet, all of the characters are just shedding any vestige of likeability at this point.

The entire dick pic situation is genuinely some of the hardest I've laughed at a movie or TV show ever, especially the way Roman slowly squirms in his chair and Logan's "are you a sicko?" line lmao.

I was losing it at the way Roman acts in the conversation with Logan. He's like a 9-year-old in the principal's office, trying to "explain" what he did by just meekly stating what it is over and over again. It's hilarious.

I knew Roman would self-destruct, but I didn't see it like this. And yeah, I'm thinking Kendall ends the season by either revealing the death of the waiter and cover-up, killing himself, or both.

Can we also talk about Shiv just absolutely destroying poor Tom?

I've restarted the show and Page 1 Mattsby was wrong. Not quite done with S1 yet but the fickle pecking order of the Roys is good fun and pretty addicting. I like the Lear accent of it. Backseats their carriages. Or like the charity banquet, how they contrive kneeling to Brian Cox. Best of cast so far - cousin Greg! Funniest character and I predict he'll have the biggest arc.... I love how he fights thru the uncomfortable and all his misphrases.
