Are you team underlined or team crossed out?

@TCH534 7 ай бұрын

Underlined

@belowpressure 7 ай бұрын

I think underlined for sure

@Tushar_10 7 ай бұрын

The showrunner himself said that it was underlined

@frayacinth 7 ай бұрын

crossed out, Logan seems like the type to cross out

@grantmckeever507 7 ай бұрын

I think underlined. You write from left to right and the addendum started out underlined on the left and then gradually appeared crossed out on the right. I think if it was crossed out, it would have began crossed out on the left.

I agree with these comments. It's so great. Except Arianna just seems annoyed by the catfighting and maneuvering. Like usual. Does she even enjoy the show?

That Kendall smile at the end is directly inspired by Michael Corleone from The Godfather. He started his arc towards trying to take the throne.

I'm glad Arianna felt some sympathy for Shiv here because so many people who watch this out think it's just another case of her being an entitled brat and while she is also that, she has a baby to think about and her dad just died. Her brothers leave her out all the time and her marriage is ending. I felt bad for her here. It's also a call back to season 1 episode 2 at the hospital when Kendall and Roman decided to let Kendall be the interim CEO.

she deserves her marriage ending. baby's probably not even Tom's

Really appreciated Stewy this episode. He had no specific reason to push for Kendall except supporting his friend who is in grief. I do believe that in any other context he would have gotten a promise from either Ken or the old guard and then pushed accordingly.

It's so refreshing watching women react to this show. Can't tell you how many men reacting to this show on KZfaq watch the scene with Shiv on the phone and just completely don't pick up that she's pregnant, and spend the rest of the episode still not understanding.

@kurtwagner350 7 ай бұрын

But if your an old man who’s maybe shaking in anger it’s completely possible to miss by a half centimeter for the start and continue on crossing the rest out. We would need handwriting samples to confirm either way but I don’t think it’s necessarily that simple to say it started underneath even though 75%+ was crossed out

"Well, it sure as fucking shit doesn't say 'Shiv,'" is one of the coldest Ken lines. If he kept that energy all the time, the whole series could've been avoided -- truly Logan coming out in that moment.

Unfortunately he’s an addict and his proximity to Waystar often brought out the worst in him and sent him spiraling back to his addictions.

Tom was playing the long game, he had so many fooled. I think that's why he could only really be himself with Greg. Kindred spirits (in a really fucked up way). 😅

@Sig509 7 ай бұрын

Karl unleashed was great. The whole series the guy was a bumbling comic relief, and with Logan gone it was immediately more visible why he valued him. And that is really obvious, as to be in a top management of a such large corporation for so many years, to be CFO, you have to be a beast.

I think it says so much that Roman of all people was the only one to show any sort of compassion to Kerry. Says a lot about him and his state of mind. Whilst she was entirely unsympathetic for the majority of her tenure in the Roy bubble, she was a relatively average person who was had a brief moment in the light before losing the only thing that was keeping her there. Roman, whilst not being immune to the promises of fatherly love that it offers, has always been the one to see Waystar for what it really is and has been accepting of his place in it. For a time he was promised the spotlight too, to lose it again all to quickly.

That edited “will” has to be a callback to the pilot episode right? The day Logan changed his mind about Kendall taking over. The same day Greg was re-introduced to the family and he called him “Craig”. He crossed out Kendall’s name and wrote “Greg” as a reminder!

@Diegesis 7 ай бұрын

if it's crossed out then yes i would agree. it seems the writers have stated that it was indeed underlined though. so its probably more recent. i mean even though kendall has done what he has done, he has ALWAYS been the one.
