    Shiv's really bad at offering other people incentives, when it's not based on some kind of political angle.
    She completely fumbled the opportunity to win Gerri over when she found out that Roman was sending her dick pics. She completely fumbled the opportunity to reignite a partnership with Tom when he offered to get back together and she seemed open to it, especially since she was on the other side of her brothers. She completely failed to get Mattson to offer her something solid after backstabbing her brothers, and she completely failed to offer Greg anything of substance to cover for her.
    Shiv was right very early on, going way back to season 1: she was supposed to be in politics, not business. The only reason why she's trying to be in the business and why she plays that game, is because Logan promised her that he would give the business over to her, but even after he did, he still wanted her to go through training of the business...but she doesn't want to. She just wants the business for the sake of power, but doesn't really have any idea what to do with it, which is why all her wins are temporary and usually don't go anywhere.

    I’m gonna say it… I’m gonna say it, I’m sorry but I’m gonna say it: This is the moment when Walter White became Heisenberg.
    Kendall spent this episode scraping desperately for his last shred of humanity, doing everything to convince himself to come back from the brink, Roman representing the pragmatic devil on his shoulder and Shiv being the hypocritical, sanctimonious angel. In the end, it didn’t come down to ideology or talking points. The last thing that Kendall truly held sacred (other than his children, whom he can convince himself he’s working for no matter what he does) was the bond with his siblings, forged in his confession about the vehicular manslaughter incident and cemented in their father’s death.
    Shiv’s betrayal, following how much he had confided in her and how much vulnerability he had shown her as his only sister (which is so much more than you show your brothers as a man) proved to Kendall once and for all what he was trying to prevent himself from believing.
    The truth doesn’t matter. Morality doesn’t matter. Friendship doesn’t matter. Emotions don’t matter. Family doesn’t matter.
    All that matters is winning, and the loyalties built on mutual self interest that will get you to that point. Now that Kendall’s dropped the final anchor, nothing’s stopping him from transforming into his father, a man without love who trusts no one and uses every tool in his arsenal to destroy his enemies.
    Roman might have thought he was the real winner out of the siblings tonight, and Shiv will try to play whatever angles she can from the outside with Mattson, but unlike Roman, Kendall isn’t becoming his father just for the sake of imitating him.
    Through great personal conflict and pain, Kendall finally, truly sees why his father was the man that he was. Life’s not knights on horseback. It’s a number on a piece of paper, it’s a fight for a knife in the mud. He’s learned these lessons the hard way, and the final two episodes will show us the beast that emerges from the flames.
    Holy fucking shit this show is amazing.

    • @7razman
      @7razman Рік тому

      The sad thing is though, Kendall allowing Mencken to be called for the Presidency will not affect him one iota, zip. Whatever happens with Waystar, Kendall and the other three will be rich beyond their wildest dreams.
      The thing about Kendall is, out of all the siblings he feels the most guilty about the Wealth he's been born into, and deep down he doesn't feel like he deserves it, but doesn't want to give it up either. So he wants to be seen as his own man, Self made and separate from his Father, but he isn't... When it comes down to it, he is the son of a Billionaire. That's what his whole Season 3 arc was about. He is self aware, and that's what makes his actions in this episode, that much worse. He's not acting out of some kind of misdirected grief or insecurity like Roman or Shiv. He's being calculated.
      When he saw his name on that piece of paper (Underlined/Crossed Out?) he felt validated. He felt like his dad (At least at some point) saw him as worthy of being his Successor. And that's when his ambition began taking over his self awareness.
      I think one of two things will happen in the Finale, and neither of them good for Kendall.
      Either, he will get Waystar by manoeuvring in such a way that it completely crushes any semblance of a conscience he has left. Leaving him as the Top Dog but deeply unhappy and wracked with an enormous sense of guilt he will have to bury deep inside him to stay at the top. He will, without realising it become the very thing he fears: Just like Logan.
      Or, Shiv will use the information she has about the dead waiter and make it public, along with Roman's dick pick scandal and bury them both. Roman's miss step may well be forgiven in time, but Kendall will be a rich social pariah forever, sort of like an OJ Simpson, and may even wind up in legal trouble.
      Whoever does the most fucked up thing will win in the end!!

    Shiv thought she was gonna jump to greener pastures and Maddsen is her knight in shining armor. Maddsen is either playing dumb to syphon information from Shiv or he's an idiot and she isn't smart enough to see it. Right now Kendell and Rome are CEOs and Rome has the President elect's ear, who will kill the deal. There's literally no way out for her from this. There have been a lot of betrayals on this show but this one might take the cake. It's too egregious to recover from. Her only saving grace is if theres a recount or something that flips a few states and Jiminez gets in there.

      The media uses an exit polls and get enough samples to predict the vote.
      In my country Indonesia, this is called a quick count... you take a few thousand samples, you can predict the winner on select districts with a very small margin of error. Why wait if we can statistically predict the result with high level of accuracy.
      It has always been the tradition in the US to unnoficially declare winner and losers based on those exit polls announced by the media. Since they are pretty accurate, the presidential candidate usually concede or accept nomination at this point without waiting for the official announcement and ballot count.
      At least, thats how I understand it from living in the US for 15 years.

      @Chuck Buskee settle down Chuck. You are becoming the definition of a salty Shiv fan. I’ve been watching every episode from the beginning. When did they reference the waiter this season? Also where would the continuity be? The cruise debacle was far worse and Kendall didn’t actually kill the waiter. Waiter killed himself in that crash. Logan covered it all up and there is no proof. Also, if you don’t understand that at this point Kendall is becoming Logan. You’re lost. They have literally been foreshadowing it (hitting you in the head with it) since the letter episode. It’s over man. Let it go.

    She always has some options and brings that up every time she screws up. Definitely, the weakest link in the company, a sitting duck for every advisory they had.

    nope cant see myself siding with shiv at all here no. she really is clueless when it comes to strategy. no wonder her resume as a political consultant is filled with failures from the congresswoman in season 1 to gil and ultimately she couldnt get her guy to be president

    I hate all 3 siblings equally at this point, but it was so great to see Ken finally make a real power play even his father would respect. I also love Tom staring Shiv down as he made the phone call to call it, Tom gives zero shits about Shiv right now.

    Every once in a while I'll see acting performances and think 'Why do people praise actors so much, this doesn't seem too hard to do". Then I'll watch performances like Sarah's here and realized "Yeah, this is fucking acting and is fucking incredible". What a cast, holy shit.

    Throughout the series, Kendall and Shiv wish they could trade places. Shiv wants the professional respect that Logan bestows upon Kendall. Kendall wants the personal affection that Logan bestowed upon Shiv.

    I almost feel bad for shiv; she's turned everyone against her including her own husband and her two brothers. She really couldn't have played this worse, and the worst part is she was right in this situation and maybe could've convinced kendall if she played things even slightly better
