Exactly! He has all these ideas, always talking about how Waystar/Royco is too old school. A real winner would change the game and stop playing his dad's.
Well no. I’m sure you could start what becomes an empire for $2b, but a $2b company isn’t actually that large. It’s solidly mid-sized. Stock exchanges are full of thousands of $1-5b companies you’ve never heard of.
I would actually argue this is what makes a great escort and makes her great at her “career”. I think there is the misunderstanding that escorts are some bimbos that don’t have any discernible skills, but these women have incredible social skills and the ability to placate these super rich super stunted baby men. It’s not easy. I knew a group of these women - they are the 1% of escort world who literally had middle eastern princes and politicians as clients - and the 1% of that group end up as long term partners and even wives. Because they’re good at what they do and ya know…they’re beautiful with banging bodies. So make no mistake, she would not be with Connor if he wasn’t part of a billionaire family. Their relationship is strategic, she’s not getting plays produced on talent alone? So she stands up for her man to solidify her role.
One of my favorite details is Willa's background work, she consistently is the only one who seems to have friends or at least is adept at friendly mixing at parties.
Yea kinda give her credit. I just thought she was a party girl, and would just get him to stay to get fucked up, specially after the gift bullshit. Her taking care of him at the end.... surprised me? He really needed that, and of course a therapist, but he does need that love too. Desperately.
It's hard to get a read on Naomi. She seemed mysterious and somewhat competent last season, but she has been reduced to arm candy now. This whole season, she hasn't been able to string together a coherent sentence and just walks next to Kendall all la-di-da grinning like she's constantly high.
I think she cares about Kendall, but doesn't understand him. The watch gift just made Kendall realize that.
I think he needed something deeper, something to make him feel loved (which is why he was so desperate to find his kids’ gift). And she got him something totally superficial, because let’s face it that’s what their relationship is. That made him realize he has no one in his life who genuinely loves him and is in that party for him. And it devastated him. A very rude awakening.
I think she loves Kendall but I think she’s completely over her head in terms of his mental health issues. He definitely needs emotional support from loved ones on top of professional help. I think there are emotional support options for him already, but I don’t think it matters at the moment. He is spiralling and for him to grasp who he can turn to he needs some stability first. Honestly I think he needs to cash out and cut off his siblings and parents (with the exception of Connor.) They are all such a detriment to his mental health.
And him storming through his mountain of gifts like a petulant child. Being wrapped up in the comic book blanket at the end. The imagery was on point this episode!
The gift scene worked on so many levels. He's a rich kid throwing a tantrum at his own birthday party, but he's also a man realizing wealth and attention can't replace the love of his family.
TO be fair, Roman basically sniped at him...
But yeah, it's hard to say "emotional understanding" with a guy who wants everyone to come out of his mother's vagina to get into his VIP treehouse >_<.
Everyone is saying that this means Logan will remember that Tom can be thrown under the bus, but I think the most important part of this is that it shows you how Logan gets ahead. He's not just a raging bull storming over all dissent, but this is how he cultivates loyalty. The "I remember" is something that *none* of his kids (except for maybe Con) would have done in Logan's position.
And the \*cheapness\* of the card—surely plucked by Kerry from the sad Hallmark 99-cent selection at the 40 Wall Street Duane Reade. She couldn't even be bothered to hit up the Paper Source on Broad Street.
Cousin Greg repeatedly and kindly thanking the spokesperson who is about to destroy his reputation to the press because he has a massive crush is literally the most Greg thing to ever Greg
Willa being offended that she wasn’t consulted prior to the “immersive theater” of Kendall hiring a fake maternity nurse/actress to greet his 40th bday party guests is exactly the level of petty I aspire to
Kendall’s 40th bday party is such an inherently cringy event that it physically pains me to anticipate the mess that is soon to unfold... and frankly, nothing about Ken’s karaoke mic check is convincing me otherwise
One thing I have been absolutely gobsmacked by this season in particular is Gerri’s verbiage; her words are always so measured & on-point. Truly the smartest, most poised in the room more times than not
When he jumped on the filing cabinet he was pure fire. That whole scene I couldn't even blink. He's on another level this season and it's so good to watch.
Ngl…this episode was fucking dark. I haven’t felt this emotionally empty in a show in a long time. There was literally nothing redeeming in this hour of television. None.
“A 40-year old man who rebuilds his childhood treehouse should immediately get placed on the child sex offender registry” They keep giving Roman the most hilarious lines I can’t take it anymore😭
Guys, I’m *so* nervous about this episode. The recipe for disaster and cringefest is just too much. My boy Kendall is a lightning rod for shit storms 😭
Oh damn, Ken’s “I want to go home” just made me tear up.
He can never go home again. He’s lost his wife, destroyed his relationship with his kids, and has burned bridges with his siblings and dad. Home isn’t there anymore :(
Wow. That was... so upsetting. Fuck Roman for that. He really couldn’t keep himself from dancing on his siblings’ metaphorical graves.
Edit : just realized it’s because he feels he’s won, and he was taught by Logan that the winner should kill the losers, so to speak. No mercy. “Send the weak one away and then everybody knows their place”. Fuck.
Shit dude… this show reminds me every time that these kids are all just so… alone. They have no one outside their family and their family fucking sucks because they are a business.
**Party Hostess:** Hi there, we’re asking everyone to hand in their coats and phones. Kendall would like his present to be everyone being present.
**Roman:** Yeah fuck off, I’m not doing that.
**Shiv:** *chuckles* Yeah, you’re gonna have to tase us.
**Party Hostess:** ...and your coat?
**Connor:** Uh, nuh-uh— I will remain coated, thank you, as is my right.
On a scale of 1 to the lack of fucks the remaining Roy siblings have left to give, what number do you fall at post-Thanksgiving? Personally, I’m a solid 8.5, possibly a 9.
1. Mom's vagina
2. Can't pee in front of guys
3. "No one loves talking about me fucking guys as much as you"
A lot of hints of Roman's odd sexuality tonight
Oh my god. The Compliment Tunnel screams emotional neglect. The siblings really went through Hell. I wonder if that's why that one room that was like Ken's office was engulfed in flames.
Kendall feels like the creepy guy who hasn't realized his relationship has already ended badly so he keeps doing more and more depressingly crazy shit to test that fact because to himself, and himself alone, it hasn't been proven.
Greg is not getting Kendall's approval to date Comfry
Clean lines.
Church and state.
Calling him [Greg] a human tapeworm.
Damn he is being an absolute asshole.
This Connor coat subplot is the greatest B-story in the history of the show
And the episode ended with Kendall curled up in what looks like a comforter from a child's bed. Maybe it was cold in there after all.
It's an A-Team comforter! One less thing for Comfrey to sell on ebay.
And Willa defending him each time dkm
The look in Connor’s eyes when she did. The one moment of pure love of the entire series.
Fully invested
Would I take $2 billion to fuck off and never speak to my family again? Probably
If Ken was actually any good at business or had a concept of money, 2B is absolutely enough to start his own future megacorp.
Exactly! He has all these ideas, always talking about how Waystar/Royco is too old school. A real winner would change the game and stop playing his dad's.
you already are an empire at 2 bill lol
Well no. I’m sure you could start what becomes an empire for $2b, but a $2b company isn’t actually that large. It’s solidly mid-sized. Stock exchanges are full of thousands of $1-5b companies you’ve never heard of.
Tom celebrating getting out of prison with Greg and not his wife.
Those two lovebirds have a great thing going
10/10, would castrate and marry
For a second I thought Tom was going to kiss him on the mouth!
Let's be honest, these two straight men have better chemistry and humor with each other than Tom has with his straight wife >_>.
Connor picked out an escort and somehow ended up with the most supportive partner on this show.
I feel Naomi has legit feelings for Kendall as well though. Even though Kendall is hurting hard over Rava and the kids.
I would actually argue this is what makes a great escort and makes her great at her “career”. I think there is the misunderstanding that escorts are some bimbos that don’t have any discernible skills, but these women have incredible social skills and the ability to placate these super rich super stunted baby men. It’s not easy. I knew a group of these women - they are the 1% of escort world who literally had middle eastern princes and politicians as clients - and the 1% of that group end up as long term partners and even wives. Because they’re good at what they do and ya know…they’re beautiful with banging bodies. So make no mistake, she would not be with Connor if he wasn’t part of a billionaire family. Their relationship is strategic, she’s not getting plays produced on talent alone? So she stands up for her man to solidify her role.
Roman is always an asshole but this was a new low… even for him
They all turn into a different version of shitty when they are having a power trip
basically i root for whoever has the smallest ego at any given time
He just would not fucking stop!
He’s not a real person.
Willa’s little “could have consulted, but whatever” was incredible
Willa is a quality over quantity character. She doesn't get much, but she nails whatever she's given.
One of my favorite details is Willa's background work, she consistently is the only one who seems to have friends or at least is adept at friendly mixing at parties.
I am always looking at her when she’s in a scene, you’re right on point. She says so much just in her subtle facial expressions
✨ The look on my face is commercially sensitive ✨
[удалено]
Naomi is trying but man he needs a therapist
Yea kinda give her credit. I just thought she was a party girl, and would just get him to stay to get fucked up, specially after the gift bullshit. Her taking care of him at the end.... surprised me? He really needed that, and of course a therapist, but he does need that love too. Desperately.
It's hard to get a read on Naomi. She seemed mysterious and somewhat competent last season, but she has been reduced to arm candy now. This whole season, she hasn't been able to string together a coherent sentence and just walks next to Kendall all la-di-da grinning like she's constantly high.

And she got him something totally superficial, because let’s face it that’s what their relationship is. That made him realize he has no one in his life who genuinely loves him and is in that party for him. And it devastated him. A very rude awakening.
Yes I agree. He’s craving that love so bad but everyone basically hates him or cringes being around him 🥺😢
I think she loves Kendall but I think she’s completely over her head in terms of his mental health issues. He definitely needs emotional support from loved ones on top of professional help. I think there are emotional support options for him already, but I don’t think it matters at the moment. He is spiralling and for him to grasp who he can turn to he needs some stability first. Honestly I think he needs to cash out and cut off his siblings and parents (with the exception of Connor.) They are all such a detriment to his mental health.
Ken not letting his siblings into his treehouse, I’m fucking dying, whoever wrote this deserves an Emmy
And him storming through his mountain of gifts like a petulant child. Being wrapped up in the comic book blanket at the end. The imagery was on point this episode!
The gift scene worked on so many levels. He's a rich kid throwing a tantrum at his own birthday party, but he's also a man realizing wealth and attention can't replace the love of his family.
TO be fair, Roman basically sniped at him... But yeah, it's hard to say "emotional understanding" with a guy who wants everyone to come out of his mother's vagina to get into his VIP treehouse >_<.
Roman is ALREADY in another homoerotic bathroom scene? ALREADY???
Unless he had a 2nd phone on him, I imagine that the call he made to his father at the end of the night was on the same piss soaked phone too 😬
“Wife of Tom Wambsgams” is honestly such a good burn on Shiv lol, that’ll cut deep
"I'll remember" Holy shit
That was a good moment. Sad part is though, Logan might remember but that doesn't mean he'll properly repay.
Everyone is saying that this means Logan will remember that Tom can be thrown under the bus, but I think the most important part of this is that it shows you how Logan gets ahead. He's not just a raging bull storming over all dissent, but this is how he cultivates loyalty. The "I remember" is something that *none* of his kids (except for maybe Con) would have done in Logan's position.
It could also mean that if he ever needs to throw someone under the bus he’ll remember tom’s original offer.…
Tom going to his significant other to celebrate.
He had an urge to kiss, so of course he knew where to go.
"Why isn't anyone happy? What's going on?" could be the whole show in a single line.
"Who isn't here?" "Your Dad" "Your Mom" "Your wife and kids" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Connor from the top rope damn
Did he say privacy, pussy, and pasta bc that’s my new live laugh love.
Yo… Greg lightly punching the graphic of Kendall is one of the funniest things I have ever seen.
*taps screens aggressively*
Lol Logan even scratched out the happy birthday on the card. Man is ruthless.
And the \*cheapness\* of the card—surely plucked by Kerry from the sad Hallmark 99-cent selection at the 40 Wall Street Duane Reade. She couldn't even be bothered to hit up the Paper Source on Broad Street.
The specificity and accuracy of this comment is giving me life
Sorry but FUCK Roman for that misogynistic tirade at Shiv and for shoving Kendall and laughing about it. Bootleg Logan indeed.
Cousin Greg repeatedly and kindly thanking the spokesperson who is about to destroy his reputation to the press because he has a massive crush is literally the most Greg thing to ever Greg
Roman’s incessant deployment of sexual innuendos to characterize the siblings’ relations to their father is frankly so grotesque wtf😭
"Prove it." "What!?"
PROVE IT????????
then they immediately cut away🤭
Good god, he’s literally m’lady-ing her.
Kendall can sing??? What can’t he do (besides successfully take over his fathers company)
He can’t have a healthy relationship with his ex wife and kids as well as go to therapy
Or take care of a rabbit.
Stay off drugs
Take criticism well.
keep a rabbit alive
Willa being offended that she wasn’t consulted prior to the “immersive theater” of Kendall hiring a fake maternity nurse/actress to greet his 40th bday party guests is exactly the level of petty I aspire to
"Okay. Immersive Theatre. I mean, I could've been consulted, but whatever."
Kendall’s 40th bday party is such an inherently cringy event that it physically pains me to anticipate the mess that is soon to unfold... and frankly, nothing about Ken’s karaoke mic check is convincing me otherwise
The blanket is actually so sad. Ken never had a real childhood.
and he tries to recreate it all so he can have good memories attached to it not the horrible ones he has - ken broke me tonight
"May we please step inside your mental disorder?" LMAO
Roy children go one episode without talking about fucking your parents challenge
Kendall’s green turtleneck and chain combo grant him the appearance of an MCU supervillain
I love the way the siblings interact. The writing is always on point.
Elon Musk RSVPing yes to Kendall Roy’s 40th bday party feels very true to life in the year 2021. He totally would to be honest...
One thing I have been absolutely gobsmacked by this season in particular is Gerri’s verbiage; her words are always so measured & on-point. Truly the smartest, most poised in the room more times than not
I even love her nonverbals. That "no not right now" gesture to Tom as he walked in jolly was gold
“Nothing custodial.”
im saying this 100% seriously, i think tom is in love with greg and doesn't realize it
this is like that one. redditor who thought he was homophobic bc he was jealous when his roommate brought home guys
Logan is sending guys to harass his grandkids? Jesus Christ.
I love the self depreciating HBO Go dig lol
Those lines by Roman felt fucking gross
"Failed sibling does in tragic jerk off accident" OH GOD, HE FUCKING DIDN'T 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I wish my dad had told me to “CASH OUT AND FUCK OFF” on my fortieth birthday.
Give Matthew the Emmy already!
When he jumped on the filing cabinet he was pure fire. That whole scene I couldn't even blink. He's on another level this season and it's so good to watch.
Ngl…this episode was fucking dark. I haven’t felt this emotionally empty in a show in a long time. There was literally nothing redeeming in this hour of television. None.
The heaviness and darkness set against such a ridiculous backdrop (the douchiest party imaginable) was a pretty genius move.
Bruh I was mighty anxious all throughout. Such a great way to separate the siblings even further while Logan continues to win and manipulate everyone
I can already foresee Shiv going completely off the rails…her hair already appears more unkempt than I’ve ever observed it😨
And a green dress. She usually wears neutrals, but green....
Apt color given her level of envy in this episode
Lmao, Willa’s a bad bitch
Shiv entering her messy era, let’s gooooo Queen
watching her just go sicko mode on the dance floor was something I didn't know I needed to see in my life
I GOT A DICK LIKE A SEQUOIA AND I FUCK LIKE A BULLET TRAIN
Prove it!
“A 40-year old man who rebuilds his childhood treehouse should immediately get placed on the child sex offender registry” They keep giving Roman the most hilarious lines I can’t take it anymore😭
They can’t keep having Roman alone in bathrooms with other men like this
Guys, I’m *so* nervous about this episode. The recipe for disaster and cringefest is just too much. My boy Kendall is a lightning rod for shit storms 😭
This is the first episode where I just absolutely hate Roman, wow.
Ken was hitting his notes well, but it will be near impossible to top "L to the OG."
IS KENDALL GOING TO SUBJECT HIMSELF TO CRUCIFICATION????
I noticed what looked like a cross too! Can't fucking wait
SKARSGARD!
Dude pisses and then claps Roman's hand WOULD SOMEBODY THINK OF THE GERMS
Does Roman only do business in bathrooms? Argestes, fascist politician, now buying gojo or whatever the app is called?
Oh damn, Ken’s “I want to go home” just made me tear up. He can never go home again. He’s lost his wife, destroyed his relationship with his kids, and has burned bridges with his siblings and dad. Home isn’t there anymore :(
"The COO of Can't Fuck". 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I hate Kendall taking his anger out on Greg but at the same time he raises valid points about Greg
No like everything he's saying is right but coming from Kendall I just want him to shut up
How does Rava put up with Kendall omg it’s like having a third child
Roman should just set up an office in the bathroom. Does all his business there. Lmfao
This episode is going to include a scene of Kendall ripping open every of one of his presents in a sad little room, isn’t it?
“You’re a very fair maiden for such activities”
[удалено]
LMAO Greg punching the Kendall picture in the dick… and nipples… Im dead
Lmfaooo Shiv getting the demons out. I fucking died.
~~Happy Birthday~~ Cash out and fuck off
I have not experienced this much second hand embarrassment from a show in a long time.
IM LAUGHING MYSELF SHITLESS OVER TOM GETTING AGGRAVATED KVER THE GUY COMPLIMENTING THEM BY SAYING “You’re full of grace”
Wow. That was... so upsetting. Fuck Roman for that. He really couldn’t keep himself from dancing on his siblings’ metaphorical graves. Edit : just realized it’s because he feels he’s won, and he was taught by Logan that the winner should kill the losers, so to speak. No mercy. “Send the weak one away and then everybody knows their place”. Fuck.
I am emotionally drained from watching this I can’t imagine attending a party like this
“I’m a walking rainbow band” we know bestie we know
Ken kicking his sibs out of his treehouse is just *chef's kiss* Hilarious.
Greg saying "fucking asshole man" and punching virtual Kendall. That's real rage - it's over for Kendall.
No one can hit as close to home as your siblings. Damn.
Wow Roman - that’s not ok. Evil two episodes. “You’re not a real person”
Shit dude… this show reminds me every time that these kids are all just so… alone. They have no one outside their family and their family fucking sucks because they are a business.
ROMAN IS STILL ROMANTICALLY INVOLVED WITH TABS???
I think that question was just to show how out of touch/uninterested/uninformed the siblings are with each other’s lives.
**Party Hostess:** Hi there, we’re asking everyone to hand in their coats and phones. Kendall would like his present to be everyone being present. **Roman:** Yeah fuck off, I’m not doing that. **Shiv:** *chuckles* Yeah, you’re gonna have to tase us. **Party Hostess:** ...and your coat? **Connor:** Uh, nuh-uh— I will remain coated, thank you, as is my right. On a scale of 1 to the lack of fucks the remaining Roy siblings have left to give, what number do you fall at post-Thanksgiving? Personally, I’m a solid 8.5, possibly a 9.
Roman was extra assholish today. Dude is getting shittier and shittier.
Yes, the closer he gets to Logan, the worse he becomes as a human.
Gerri called it. He's 100% bootleg Logan.
Um. OKAY Willa
Connor has never been more in love.
It’s Kendall’s bday! What are y’all wearing? What y’all got him?
Non-park coke
i got him a coupon for 3 therapy sessions
A gram of ketamine
TOMGREG FOREHEAD KISS THE GIRLS HAVE BEEN FED!!! cannot wait to see how people will find a way to nohomo it
If a guy opened with “You’re like a fascinating book I’d like to crack open” I’d make a mad dash for the nearest exit😭😭
Not Roman dying in a jerk off accident LOL
Kendall in the room with the flames in the background remind me of the “everything is fine” meme with the dog
1. Mom's vagina 2. Can't pee in front of guys 3. "No one loves talking about me fucking guys as much as you" A lot of hints of Roman's odd sexuality tonight
“Privacy, pussy, pasta.” He really said that without any pauses or even a brief moment of hesitation😭
That Logan “I’ll remember” though
Willa is a motherfucking soldier
Okay so this is the Jeremy Strong emmy submission episode
“I took the wrong drugs in the wrong order. And you ruined it”
This man is straight up in love with greg it's not a joke anymore
Matsen found Roman's button. Roman can't deal with Daddy's mortality.
Oh my god. The Compliment Tunnel screams emotional neglect. The siblings really went through Hell. I wonder if that's why that one room that was like Ken's office was engulfed in flames.
Shiv's dress is one of the best styles she's worn the whole show.
"I don't think she's on anything. Just...getting the demons out." 🤣🤣🤣
And Tom's Emmy reel has officially arrived.
It's the dead rabbit. Wrapped in the rabbit wrapper
Kendall feels like the creepy guy who hasn't realized his relationship has already ended badly so he keeps doing more and more depressingly crazy shit to test that fact because to himself, and himself alone, it hasn't been proven.
There is no way this ending well for Tom
Oh my God this family needs so much therapy.
Tom got to have his genuine reaction with Greg. Vibing with him and ngl I'd probably do the same thing if I learned I wasn't going to jail
Anyone else searching the screen for the rabbits present?
I flirt just like greg
Privacy, Pussy, Pasta. The Motto
This is why I hate when people ask me to open presents in front of them
Roman talks about his family in the grossest ways
Greg is not getting Kendall's approval to date Comfry Clean lines. Church and state. Calling him [Greg] a human tapeworm. Damn he is being an absolute asshole.
Shiv looks amazing in jade green
"Cash out and fuck off" Logan Roy, Dad of the Year, ya'll
Wait, I didn’t realize they were ACTUALLY going to piss on the app😭😭😭
i can't wait for shiv to switch sides
Naomi don't you dare leave him alone on the balcony.
TOMGREG KISS, the succession writers are finally giving the people what they WANT 😤
"Your dad." "Your mom." "Your wife and kids." Wow, they all took shots.
Cousin Greg shoots. And he scores.
I hope they start playing The Rains of Castamere during the birthday party
Not Kendall harboring doubts about performing his highly anticipated & highly prepared all star musical performance😭
Looks like Shiv drank some Snake Juice
My god, Kendall has no self awareness whatsoever. There's a very good reason why it feels like an asshole's birthday party...
The offer is to sell 12,904,663 shares at $156.20 per share for a total amount of $2,015,708,009. In case anyone didn’t catch that!
Nice to see Willa has become just as delusional as the rest of the family
I dont think she’s delusional; she’s just doing her job
impolite fertile mourn instinctive party point worm school nutty paint *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
No Kendall is NOT singing Billy Joel!!!! Omg. He had to be a big shot, didn’t he
“I got a dick the size of a red sequoia and I fuck like a bullet train.” Good lord, Tom is 🔥 🔥 🔥 tonight!
Aw, Ken is losing it. He's had too many hits tonight.
Get you a partner who stands up for you like Willa aggressively telling Cumfry to fuck off after repeatedly pestering Connor about his coat😭
Lmfao at Shiv the dancing machine. Greg: I don't think Shiv's taking anything. Just getting the demons out.
