[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It makes more sense to me that he had crossed out Kendall and pencilled in Kerri.  Then the old guard erased Kerri.

Remember Kerri was talking about a piece of paper -- maybe this was it.

It makes sense to me that Logan would have done this after his last in person meeting with the three kids -- remember him saying that they were not serious people, with disgust?  He was fed up with all of them.  Maybe he actually did mean to put Kerri in charge, though that's a little crazy itself also.  But understood in the course of these events, kind of makes sense.

Maybe Roman will get in touch with Kerri to try to understand what his dad was thinking on the day he died, and figure some of this out.  He has seen the paper so if they talk about it she might get Roman to understand that's the paper she was talking about.  This would also explain why she was so frantic about it.[/quote]

It sounds kind of farfetched but I agree, in context, it could be what happened. If Logan's health was really bad it could also have influenced his judgment. Maybe he was so unhappy after that last meeting with he kids at the karaoke club that he comes home and talks to Kerri in his study and has a drink or two, decides to pencil her onto this paper in a fit of pique, etc. Maybe he's having chest pains or other physical issues that are influencing him in that moment. Then he gets on a plane and dies. I doubt Logan would actually try to name Kerri his successor if given more than 12 hours to think about it and calm down, but he just happened to die right after that fight and while in the constant presence of Kerri. I think it could happen.[/quote]

They made such a big deal about Kerri wanting to find a piece of paper in that last episode -- I wonder whether that's really where they're going with this.  I like the prior idea about maybe they changed Kerri's name to Greg which as Greg would be laughable, but as Kerri more believable.  And they were SO CAREFUL to float everything in front of the kids as if to be square with everyone, when maybe they were really hiding the ball.

The conversation Kendall had with Frank about his father hating him, and Frank reassuring him that Logan loved him.  Frank was selling it a little, maybe.

This makes me think that maybe Roman will have a little more power because he will figure out the paper issue involving Kerri.  I will be sad if the finale is Roman gaining power but only after losing his one weakness/strength, which was his unwillingness to screw over other people.  He could betray Kendall by alluding to him killing the waiter.  He could betray Kerri (who he was showing some pity for) by believing her about the paper but not doing anything about it (or just using it to his own advantage).  I'm sure he could betray Shiv as well.  In some ways Roman is better suited to run things, but I would be a little sad if he loses his humanity to do it.  [/quote]
