I believe the Logistics folder is damaging to Tom and he asked Greg to delete it from his computer and then remove it from the trash to make sure it was actually gone - not to restore the file...
ohhhhh interesting. i read these lines for a few minutes trying to figure out what they meant. i ended up thinking that the first half was just a partial sentence due to being all stressed out. but what you said makes alot more sense.
Tom is asking Greg to delete it, and then remove it from the trash as well. that makes sense! thanks!
Tom: "And you delete my folder marked "Logistics," and then you delete that from the trash."
Do you think Greg is going to do it?
Hahahahaha Tom is an idiot, Greg is awkward but not stupid. He's gonna make copies and use it as ammunition when the time comes. Hell i would
@@bridge4 history says no
great question! i'll take a slightly different (but really the same) position as Barbra. i do think he will delete it ... after he saves a copy to a thumb drive lol
This episode was an hour long panic attack, I was in denial the whole time. I genuinely thought he was pranking.
for real. im not one to get anxious of much at all, but i was right there with ya the entire time. i cant believe how long i kept my hope up for Logan, lol, but its because the kids themselves kept doubting it. what a wild episode. this show is special!
Not til the end
Yea me too I believe Logan was messing with the kids to know what they would tell him
But that's how you know how Toxic Logan really was because he's the kind of person to do that.
I thought Tom was pranking until i saw them doing chest compressions. What a powerful episode.
That whole episode was a masterclass in acting, directing and writing. Bravo! The best show on television!
i once dated a girl who loooooved the NY Jets. but she would go into every game expecting them to lose because that lessened her downside if they lost. i never understood that since im an overoptimist ... usually
when i sat down last night to watch the episode, i found myself thinking "alright. not every episode is going to be as good as episodes 1 and 2. just relax and enjoy it"
LOL. so i guess i was limitting my expecations. then boom! like you said, this episode was a unique masterclass of its own
I haven't been that shocked and speechless since I watched the Red Wedding back in 2017 for the first time. I'm heartbroken. Bravo to Brian Cox overall, and I expect nominations for Jeremy Strong, Sarah Snook, and Kieran Culkin. Alan Ruck may not have had as much screen time, but he was good as well.
they are all terrific. acting is hard enough as it is, but acting out such emotional scenes without it looking fake or corny is something else. they are so good!
I Stan Gerri, She deserves more than Roman
i hear ya. Roman has grown on me, but Gerri is one of the best people in this show. Im also pulling for Tom and Frank. and admittedly, i have a soft spot for Kendal due to his addiction issues. i hope he figures things out and refocuses on his kids. wouldnt mind seeing Naomi again too. i kind of love her lol
I couldn´t believe what i was watching last night, insane. Best show on TV by FAR.
im only watching this and Survivor right now, so i cant speak to that, but i wouldnt be surprised. this show is top class for sure!
@@bridge4 i wans´t saying the best in TV right now, i was saying the best on TV at this moment in time when comparing to every onther show in the past 4 to 5 years. This one and House of the Dragon, simply elite. Is not TV mate, its HBO ahaha.
I predicted he wouldn’t last the season but I didn’t expect it THIS SOON!!!
despite the fact that the very first scene of Season 1 Episode 1 was about his health, and despite him having other health issues later on, i hadnt even considered him dying this season lol. in hindsight, it makes so much sense. but last night came as a complete surprise to me
Everyone needs to give Gerri a break. She just got canned after tapdancing around the DOJ & keeping the company afloat. She was loyal and helped them navigate many deals. And Roman fired her in his typical terrible manner. I don't blame her for being over all of them.
I don't blame Gerri one bit. At a bare minimum, Roman should have waited until after the wedding to have the firing conversation. He didn't have the necessary spine.
@@AstraeaAntiope Gerri was faced with the reality that she was expendable to this family even Roman. She didn’t owe him anything
Roman:
-Sexually harrasses Gerri nearly getting her fired
- Cruelly fires Gerri for Logan
- Basically tells Gerri to fuck off when she came to tell him and his siblings he's sorry about their loss
Also Roman:
Gerri, I'm sad 😔
Lmao, he's lucky she didn't tell him to go fuck himself and instead just gave him the silent treatment.
I love Roman but he's horrible to people, even people he cares about like Gerri, she doesn't owe him anything and she has her own problems to deal with that are quite literally his fault, it all started with his unsolicited dick pics, that's why Logan wanted her fired.
@@ororomunroe4055 💯 agree with your analysis.
@@lorraineioannou 💯
Man…. This episode was so hard… everyone was expecting for him to survive like Roman was clinging to the end….
i rewatched the episode today while making this video, and the dialogue is just so good. they clearly say he is dead several times, but then roped some of us back in with Roman's doubts
Roman went inside the airplane to delete the voicemail from Logan's phone
I realized he was gone when I read a spoiler 😢
ohhhhh nooo. thats such a bummer!
Perfectly summed! Love your breakdowns! Jersey!
This surprised me too. For a long time I was thinking this was going to be some kind of switch up, where he pulls through. Heck, I even partly expected him walk off the plane a say - what?
lol, i know, right? as the episode went on, i started believing it more and more. but no exageration, i didnt fully believe it until a few seconds after i saw his body covered up. cant believe it happened this early in the season. so much can happen now without him in 7 episodes!
And now it begins as everyone backstabs everyone else in a bid to gain control, all bets are off now.
that's going to be brutal. the three are so close right now, but thats about to change probably. hopefully some of the relationships can be patched up by the end!
Yep a civil war is coming
Tom is in serious trouble because Logan was the only one he could rely on and Logan was only using him to get to Shiv. So he's only hope is go back to being Shiv's footstool to stay in the company. I can already see Greg jumping ship over to the Kids side and abandoning Tom to save his own skin. Because even though I like Tom and Greg's dynamic without Logan to kiss up to they are essentially powerless.
I've Been thinking that Tom has been working with Matsson since season 3. Tom is calculating that's why I couldn't figure out what he was hoping to get by staying with Logan, the only reason I could see him staying was because he is the inside man for Matsson. Somebody told Matsson on the last episode they were planning on pushing for more money.
When they showed Logan’s face for a second. Until then I kind of thought it was a test for his kids
yeah, when they showed chest compressions being done for the first time, right?
@@bridge4 yup. Until then I honestly thought it had to be some messed up loyalty test from Logan. Mainly because I just didn’t see his death coming this early.
I held out until the end, but I also felt that the show would totally make a move like that. The show had already put Logan thru 2 health scares, so they knew the 3rd one had to be what took him.
I love how ambiguous Logan's death was, how the episode was either through the kids perspectives or on the peripheral of what was happening on the plane. It really forced company people in to their proverbial musical chairs, too. Everyone was choosing between emotion or position because the music stopped. So brutal & such a heavy piece of great television!
I thought it was a prank at first, you know like Logan trying to get to his children.....I only accept it when I saw his body on the floor 👀
same here. Roman wondered if it was a test, but by that point, we had seen his body. but at first, i wondered the same thing. wouldnt put it past Logan to play with people's emotions like that
As much as I hate GOT for "subverting my expectations", here comes along Succession who does it so well I am floored.
Game of Thrones style would've been Marcia shanking him in the middle of the night lol
This episode reminds me of Breaking Bad's Ozymandias. A gripping and absolutely perfect episode. Wow.
Child… that episode…… 🤯
❤ love you, my friend! 💜
This episode is brilliant a masterpiece. Having Logan pass away unexpectedly is a bold move. I love it. As far as Gerri goes me personally if my father hours right before he died and tell me to fire Gerri he know dam well I have feelings for her I would tell him hell no get somebody else to do it. I hope Gerri somehow take waystar to court and get her money. She's was loyal to Logan and this is what she gets in return. F***K OFF
when i was rewatching the episode to get clips for this video, i actually almost rewrote my the ending to include a bit about "don't forget, this is the guy who just ordered his son to fire Gerri, knowing that it would hurt him to do so"
Gerri is not fired, Karolina had no time to make it official as Logan died right after and she sticks with Gerri adding her to the team, that's why Gerri was allowed to come back with the siblings and give her condolences where Roman was horrible to her by the way so she moves on from that and puts Karolina in speaker, look at the mid-season trailer Gerri is still around and plotting with Frank Karl and Tom against the siblings and it looks like Roman just won't leave her alone, she doesn't want to sue him but if he keeps bothering her then she has no choice.
I accepted it when Shiv said he was pronounced DOA.
I only believed it when I saw Logan getting chest compressions. Only then did I think it was possible. Without Logan the sibs won't unite. Tom will get burned yet again by Shiv and she'll throw him under the bus. I don't blame Geri. She lost her job and reputation because of Roman's careless pic. Where's Marcia? Maatson will be the new foil. R.I.P. Logan 😠
hey Luna. the thing about Gerri though is that she wasn't just getting kicked to the curb. she was going to get a golden parachute. so its just hard for me to sit here and excuse her for not putting business aside for a minute when you see someone you love hurting. she's better than that! (or at least, i thought she was)
@@bridge4 I understand your POV. Its not about the money But from Geri's perspective she is at the peek of her career and she'd taken a lot from both Roman and Logan. They had no loyalty to her years of service. As CEO she'd done a lot of unscrupulous things on behest to Logan. Just when she might ride high with money and prestige, she's fired. Not to mention the ugly rumors probably circulating about she and Roman. Roman didn't stand up for her so from her POV she felt betrayed hence no empathy for Roman.
Logan’s fate wasn’t shocking because it has been a long time coming and I knew it had to happen before the series was over. I thought it should have happened last season. However the way they shot it felt very real. Emergencies in real time feel like that. The different stages, the anxiety, the uncertainty.
To me, that was cinema!!!
hear, hear!
This is why the poster has all the characters eyeing the back of Logan's head as they each vie for the head of the company. Interestingly, Greg is facing the other direction and Shiv is facing forward while the rest are facing right. Its as if the characters are facing away (as if they are not going for the CEO position) but side eyeing Logan (battling each other for the CEO spot).
IMO Logan decided to get rid of Gerri because of Roman. His history with Gerri compromises him if we was to become CEO, which Logan decided to grooming him for 3:19 after their conversation in ep 2. With Gerri out of the picture, Roman doesn’t have to worry about any sexual misconduct allegations popping up.
interesting. I didn't get the impression that Logan was grooming Roman. i thought he was just using him for the upcoming vote. but you might be right!
I think Logan was trying to get rid of Gerri because he was afraid she could turn Roman against him plus she's interim CEO, and he wasn't wrong, even if he had lived he was gonna lose Roman, Roman went with it but afterwards he realized what Logan did: he had him tell Gerri she was fired to hurt him as punishment for betraying him siding with Shiv and Kendall and to test his loyalty because he knows Roman likes Gerri and he felt horrible about it, so Roman for once stands up for himself and calls Logan but it's too late because Logan was dying when he called he left the voice message and then he's worried he might've heard it before he died.
Tom said to Greg to delete the folder marked "logistics", THEN delete the folder from the "trash", thereby getting rid of the information in that folder. Not using that information for some nefarious action. He is dumping whatever information he was gathering that may be of use to him against Logan, he no longer needs the "logistics" folder since Logan is dead.
When they said they were doing chest compressions and didn't have an AED. Chest compressions aren't meant to restart the heart, they keep blood moving through the body. They are exhausting, and it was likely the trained person would tire before getting backup. They were still in the air and would not be able to get actual medical help until well after he would be brain-dead. Succession is very realistic with its small details.
I assumed as soon as Tom said he was sick. I thought he would go early to shock us.
Hey just a wee heads up bout half way through it says S2E4 and it should be the other way round
I had the same reaction. I didn’t think he was really dead.
Can't wait to hear what's in Logan's Will.
When Shiv said it on press conference it became real
ow also how's romans message gonna get used against him? cause it's totally gonna get brought up again unless he find a way to delete it. like he should be worried! will show he was working with his dad but also might be used to prove the logan wanted to fire gerri since that might get glossed over now he's dead.
This better not be just a dream, and Logan is not dead, in next week's episode.
I knew he was dead the second Tom called them. Just because I knew originally Logan was supposed to die in the beginning , I had a feeling the writers would hit us with a left curve
Gerri gets to keep her job because Logan died right after he told Karolina to make it official in paper, Karolina who likes Gerri as you can tell by her reaction when Logan says they are not only firing her but potentially setting her up to go to prison, Karolina mentions Gerri as still part of the team that's why she's allowed to be around, just like Cyd Gerri stays for now and I'm rooting for her, I don't blame her for how she ignored Roman when he tells her he's sad, he was horrible to her from the sexual harassment to telling her she was fired and he handled that terribly too, at that point she had nothing to tell him.
I was very sad about the siblings and just like you I was shocked Logan died that early and needed confirmation that he had died, I'm glad he's gone after how he abused his children and what he was planning for Gerri, til the very end he was a misogynist trying to fire two women as if the cruises where women where raped and one jumped wasn't bad enough, it's like karma hit him instantly.
And also karma for not attending Connor's wedding, maybe if he had attended he'd lived or at least not die without his kids.
One of the best episodes ever in history of television.
I knew right away. The shows not here for the cheap thrills and fake outs. They’ve done him collapsing and surviving before.
So Marcia will be back?
When Tom called, I thought it was a mean way for him to get out of going to the wedding. I thought it was just a trick. I thought that was why we weren't seeing him and why Tom was on the phone- sort of like how he was using Roman to carry his message to Gerri. I didn't believe it for a while... Not until there was a shot when they pulled back and you could actually see someone doing CPR. It hit me. There was no reason for them to do that in the shot if it wasn't real because the kids couldn't see that... So if it was a trick they wouldn't have needed to do that. So it must be real CPR on Logan.
So yeah it took me a while.
Also- Shiv's voice on the phone broke me. It was hard up till then, the reactions were all so real.. but I totally felt her and it really *hurt*. Which was dumb because he was so mean...
She also nailed it giving the press statement. Sarah Snook earned an Emmy in that episode, I hope they give it to her.
Also, as someone with some medical training the more I watched the plane scene, the more I hope they had alternates to do that CPR. Whoever was doing it was doing excellent CPR- which is exhausting. And since they film scenes over and over and over. I really hope they were able to replace that person if they became exhausted. That's all I could think as I watched the CPR bit... They were doing such a good job at made me tired watching them.
I have a theory (I don't totally believe it, but it would be kind of cool) - if the company isn't sold off and stays as it is - Connor in charge as the face, roman really in charge but as his second since roman is smart but he's not a leader. Kendal reunites with his fam and has a sort of happy life, shiv and tom destroy each other - since really he's her focus. and Connor gets on top by the old guard promoting him cause they think he's stupid and they can manipulate him and it's a sort of consolation for him pulling out of the president race - like he's given a diff role that grows - also this might work cause he does have semi loyal/strong/smart people around him - willa and roman. also see gerri dissing roman is gonna backfire on her like she's done it a few times now and yeah he's shitty, but his feelings for her are genuine so i think there will be a time when she needs his support and he's all nah.
Kerry - looking forward to her getting booted, but also is she pregnant and will that make a difference? - I think maybe and no like she might get a payout or some money.
Im in denial.
I love when they did this. Because really, don't the Roy kids want their Dad to give them the CEO role, not just the role itself? Through all their power tripping, they truly just want their Dad'a acceptance, and now, his last words too them were 'you are not serious people' - ooof.
We never saw him. He’s a billionaire with a lot power. I assumed it was a fake out till the very end
at one point, Roman (i think) wondered if it was a test lol. poor kid
If Greg has any brains, he will take a copy of that Logistics folder, and then delete the original.
(Not that it really matters. Everything is backed up on corporate machines, and the information will be found if there's any investigations.)
I was sick 😫 WOW WHAT A GREA'T SHOW TONIGHT...he's not died 😢 yes he is died 😢 💔 😔
3:35 S4E2 not S2E4
haha whoops. thanks! (cant change it at this point though unfortunately)
@@bridge4 ah I see no worries! Nice video man :).
thanks, Treclomer!
I am actually afraid that if board decides to keep Gerri fired, she might sue Roman for sexual harassment. I hope not, I really liked Gerri, too, and their twisted rekationship. I think Roman is really looking for love and I feel for him.
Succession officially beats GoT in wedding episodes.
Is Logan really dead! 😶 he can’t be! 😮
This episode really triggers people who went through this in real life, the unexpected death and reaction is just raw.
no doubt. my condolences to anyone out there who had bad memories resurface (but at the same time, shoutout to the show for addressing something so real and raw)
B...
it's pronounced "meem" not "meh meh"
