I'm the PP who predicted they'd both be in the works! Y'all told me they were both totally out of the picture but I knew they'd be around.

I was surprised by how the board vote was handled though, with it not even being shows and just seeing the behind the scenes stuff at Logan's apartment with the kids. I get the choice, but I was expecting the vote to be more of a set piece for the show.

I missed the scenes from next week's episode, can anyone summarize?

I didn’t see any scenes from next week?

Did they not do a "coming up on Succession" package? I was watching at a friend's house and had to leave before the credits rolled so I figured I just missed it.

Next week they visit Mattsonn to close the sale. The preview was there.

Why did Shiv need an amino? I don’t think she miscarried but that fall feels out of place otherwise.

Paternity or birth defect (Down Syndrome specifically).

Google tells me that you can do a blood test with the mother and father's blood for paternity or you can do an amnio and compare it to a DNA sample from the potential father. Shiv doesn't have a plausible reason for Tom to do a blood test but she could probably easily get her hands on a sample of his DNA.

Down Syndrome is self-explanatory. Most women get a blood test for the markers but I think it can only be definitively diagnosed during pregnancy with an amnio.

I think it was left vague on purpose.

On small things not related to the plot, I always figured Roman as a state-of-the-art electric toothbrush guy, not a plain toothbrush regular Joe

Haha, I had the same thought.

99% of board meetings are incredibly boring. They almost always rubber stamp whatever the Execs recommend. That’s why it makes news when they don’t.

Looks like they all go to Sweden next week.

That was brutal, not that I minded. But for a twist of fate, the $63 million apartment could have been Kerri's in a matter of months. I would also Marcia would have an ironclad prenup in place, will be interesting to see how that pans out.

This was the Karl episode. So funny.

I said out loud “wouldn’t he at least have a Sonicare?”

Well, I wouldn't call Kerry "back." But indeed, Marcia was not shopping in Milan forever. She is mean as a snake. Her interaction with Willa was everything. Oh man.

And I guess there was also a Succession Final Season thread. I'm being annoying, but I called Shiv being pregnant too. At this point that almost seems like it didn't happen. That was crazy.

But Will had a great response. Marcia sucks.

And why was Greg on the letter???

I think you have to be a certain kind of person to marry a man like Logan. See Melania. Hard as nails and at minimum cold yourself. All of your worst character traits would only be intensified by being married to a mean disloyal belittling man.

Because she is old.

The letter was brilliant--a device to keep the power of Logan alive and well and now everyone's kissing the letter's ass. Greg's buffoon response to it was a perfect caricature to show how everyone else does the same. Karl, Frank, and Gerri stole this show throughout but really came in their own here. Brilliant. “Oh, you're sick with grief? You might want to put down that fish taco, you're getting your melancholy everywhere.”
