[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Karl: I mean could it, might it just go away? I mean it might get lost. I hope it doesn’t, but what if your hand goes a little wobbly, and a draft takes it away, and it gets flushed down a toilet by mistake? I’m kidding, of course.

Frank: Oh, sure. You’re speculating in a comic mode.

Karl: In a humorous vein. We’re not gonna let that little princess screw things up, right, Frank? Gerri’s gonna block me. I want out. I want my f*ckin’ package. 
I am halfway in on a Greek island with my brother in law.

Gerri: Say, what’s up, boys?

Sounds like they’re talking about Gerri.[/quote]

I was mystified when I watched this, and still not at all clear![/quote]

My true opinion is that someone f*cked up the closed captions/subtitles, and wrote "princess" instead of "princes." When I was watching the show I heard "princes." I think they were referring to Ken and Roman. But this error has made everyone think they're talking about a woman. [/quote]

It's possible the [i]were[/i] talking about Gerri, but once she walked in while Frank was holding the piece of paper in his hand there was no way to deflect. I would have to watch it again.[/quote]

It was Gerri they were talking about.  Between the three of them - Karl, Frank, and Gerri - Gerri's name was the one most realistically floated to take over.  Karl and Frank don't want that and have probably been jealous of Gerri's access to Logan for years.  So they're agreeing, they don't want that "princess" taking the reins.  Interesting that they didn't seem to have an issue with both the boys taking over together.  [/quote]

But then why , when Geri walked in, did they show her the paper and continue to talk “in a humerus vein” about throwing the paper away, with her in the mix of the Convo?[/quote]

She would not joke about it getting lost in the toilet if her name was on there as a potential successor.[/quote]

It wasn't in there. Karl is trying to get Frank to ally with him against Gerri. Gerri is corporate counsel and Karl knows she will take the lead in interpreting what's in there and he and Frank will be brushed aside. And that's more or less exactly what happens.

Anyway, go read re-caps online - none of them are obsessed with this issue. We are definitely making way too much of it. The paper achieved it's intended or inevitable purpose - the kids remain divided and the Old Guard has been shuffled to the side. [/quote]

Between this and the amnio, DCUM has succeeded yet again in making mountains out of molehills.[/quote]
