[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gerri's doing the Larry David thing where you keep showing up after you are fired. Works. [/quote]

Yup. I don't think Gerri is "fired fired." She'll tell Roman he didn't mean it, he'll shrug, and that'll be it. Or that's the point where Roman doubles down again and makes a big mistake and really fires her.

I think one of the Old Guard has to go because I think there's further fracturing/conflict that has to happen to get to the eventual climax of the story. Gerri is the most prominent character and has the most emotional tie to the viewer, so she's a prime candidate. Frank's firing could also have some emotional heft because (and I'm repeating myself) Frank seems decent. He's also Kendall's godfather. So is he's cruelly treated/humiliated that's also a good plot device.

Karl could be fired but there's not the same dramatic potential.[/quote]

Karl won't be fired because he already had that confrontation with Kendall, in the hall right before Kendall's Living+ presentation. Karl said Kendall "had his (Karl's) d*** in his hand" but they he (Karl) also had Kendall's, because he'd squeal about the fake forecasts if he were fired. Kendall went on to give a shout-out to his "great CFO" in his presentation. [/quote]

That shout out was a big "you're implicated and part of this buddy."  Also cringed when Karl was all high-fivey after the presentation. They all fellate the power. [/quote]
