That's really not definitive.

Also, a plot point like Maria having significant shares does not necessarily mean that Marcia is in a bunch of scenes. It could play out like: kids learn of Marcia's shares when will is read or from Logan's estate lawyer, there are conversations about her but she's not talking to anyone, then she shows up for a single board vote.

I'll be interested to see if they do an episode around Logan's funeral or not. If yes, will be hard not to pull in characters like Marcia, Kerry, the kid's mom because it's hard to imagine them not being there and, if there, not interacting with the kids. But I could also see the show pointedly not really showing the funeral, just referencing it, and focusing instead on stuff like the board vote and a succession fight, because it supports this theme they have where the business activity is always central and weddings/funerals/birthdays/family events are always secondary.

If they stay laser-focused on the board vote and who becomes CEO, there are fewer characters who might pop up. Though I still think Marcia and Kerry could show up in some capacity, and we'll be seeing Greg's dad either way, right?[/quote]

We've never seen Greg's dad.[/quote]
Maybe they mean his Grandfather? Greg's mother is the relevant connection to the Roy family (who we also have never seen.)[/quote]

Yes, I meant grandfather, Logan's brother, Ewan. He's on the Waystar board so he will be there for the board vote no matter what, plus presumably he'd go to Logan's funeral. I definitely expect to see him this season. Curious what his share in Waystar is (if any? it's always been a bit weird to me that he's on the board since he claims to hate Logan and the company) and whether that will come into play.

Oh, and I looked it up because I was curious, and Marcia did indeed renegotiate the terms of her prenup with Logan last season -- he wanted her to to stay with him to create a "united front" while they wooed Waystar, but she was pissed about Kerry, so he agreed to renegotiate the prenup. Now I feel extra confident Marcia is going to be in the mix regarding Waystar via shares from Logan.

Oh, and I also remembered -- the kids' mom sold her shares in Waystar back to Logan last season. That was part of the big betrayal at the wedding, not just Tom flipping on Shiv. Presumably those shares would have gone to Kendall, Shiv, and Roman when she died otherwise, but since they now belong to Logan and Logan is dead... curious to see if that factors into things.[/quote]
