Sweet-lexie child
Bo catches Billie as she handles Hope's itinerary and accuses her of being involved in Hope's disappearance.
There’s something going on here, and only Logan knows what it is.Victor assures Nicole that once her divorce is settled, they will be married and he will take great pleasure in ruining Kate and Sami's lives. The episode closes with him blocking Kendall’s number, “permanently”. Everyone that is, except for Logan, who despite feeling better healthwise is evidently not thrilled about making a deal with the devils. “I’d like to ask you all to join me in a moment of silence for all the victims of crimes that took place on our watch,” he says, before shooting off names of victims.ĭespite the hiccup, the Waystar camp is happy. And Kendall sees it as the perfect opportunity to bail up the stage. They both like it, and the deal is back on.ĭuring his address at the meeting, Karl tells shareholders the company has struck a deal with Sandy and Stewie. She offers Sandy a seat on the board – a fourth seat – but adds Waystar will also need an extra one for balance. She panics and runs to Sandy’s daughter, who is also named Sandy, to get the deal back on the table. Wait a minute … Shiv realises he wasn’t in the right headspace to make the decision to tank the deal. This is all unfolding mere minutes before Logan is due to give a speech at the shareholder meeting. He literally makes one of his staff members remove the imaginary cat, put it in a bag and run it out the door. He thinks there’s a dead cat under his chair. It eventually emerges he’s been battling a UTI for some time now, and given his old age, he succumbs to the symptom of going bonkers. He’s in agony trying to go to the toilet. Logan suddenly takes a turn for the worst. It’s quite thrilling!” Again, looking like he’s hopping on the teacup ride at Disneyland. If they win without a deal, Tom says, “It’s one for the memoirs. Roman squeals: “Not the PJs!” The juxtaposition between what I call PJs and what Roman calls PJs is astounding.Ī clearly unwell Logan, who has been disappearing to the toilet the entire episode, says a big fat “f**k ’em” to Sandy and Stewie. “They want to take away the private jets,” Geri says. They have one more proviso and it’s below the belt. Meanwhile, despite early celebrations from Shiv and co, Logan is unsure about taking Sandy and Stewie’s deal.Īs they’re drafting up the legalities, Geri gets a call from Sandy. Poor cousin Greg is always getting rolled over. You need to take yourself seriously kid,” Ewan tells him. “You are putting yourself in the service of a monstrous endeavour. He’s giving away all of his wealth to Greenpeace. He gets the answer no child of a rich parent ever wants to get. Two episodes ago, Greg organised to be covered under the legal joint defence of Waystar, which means he’s aligned with the Roys despite being Kendall’s right-hand man.Īfter Kendall’s threat and in a bid to remain neutral, Greg asks his grandfather Ewan – Logan’s estranged brother – for money to get external legal advice. It builds the pressure then maybe someone flips on Dad,” Kendall argues. It’s not much but it likely gives them Tom, maybe Bill. Lisa says the DoJ is non committal about the case so I need to throw them red meat. “Here’s the thing, Dad strikes a deal today, it strengthens his position. “It doesn’t sound … great?” Greg fumbles. “Is that OK?” Kendall asks, the same why I ask my partner if he can go fetch me Maltesers from Coles at 9pm. “We’re gonna lose the f***ing company today.” “Great let’s throw it open to the f***ing retired janitors of Idaho,” referencing the individual shareholders. Roman isn’t too pleased about going to a vote, delivering one of his best one-liners yet. We’re climbing into the vote boat!” Tom says, as if he’s hopping on a rollercoaster at Disneyland.
As Geri puts it, Sandy wants Logan to “sit on a corkscrew and spin”. With Kendall determined to knock his dad Logan off the media empire throne and embark on a new generation of leadership with himself at the helm, the Roys are headed into the shareholder meeting weighing up whether to make a deal with Sandy and Stewie or to gamble and let it go to a vote. It’s annual shareholder meeting time at Waystar Royco, which is just dandy timing for a company undergoing extreme pressure in the form of FBI raids, allegations of criminal wrongdoing and an all-out family war to boot.
