True.

and Logan is easily P whipped. Rhea is barely in Logan’s orbit and she’s already casting doubts about all of his children as successors.
False. Logan is playing his children via Rhea. He is not being played by Rhea. He is using her to unite his children against a common enemy.

Greg's transformation is fascinating. Think back to how he looked when he first showed up, all wild eyed and innocent with his white button down shirt, shaggy hair, and frat boy slacks.

Now, contrast this with what we saw this last week, with him more shrewdly playing the game wearing his tailored suit and slick new haircut. His transformation from "aw shucks" to "corporate shark" has been fun to watch and I can't wait to find out where it ends.

Wasn’t his first scene getting high and puking in his dog mask working at one of Roy’s amusement parks

Think so? My take is he has finally found his match in terms of cut throat leadership drawing him close the Rhea and making him susceptible to being controlled.

We also have all seen IRL stories of rich business moguls falling prey to conniving women towards the end of their lives.

Tom Benson is no Logan Roy but his family’s fight with Gale Benson has a few commonalities with this story

Shiv is a shitty person. She doesn't give a frick about her husband or family.

I hope you are right; but I’m not so sure Logan hasn’t met his match with Rhea.

All of the Logan's are shitty people. They don't give a frick about anyone, but that's part of their charm. When it comes to the kids, they're really all dumb - sans the one liners.

Best show on tv right now IMO and it's not even close. I wish more people watched this show, but without titties and dragons not many care - I guess.

true, but Shiv seems to be the only one who masquerades as something else.

Yes, definitely, to both. I only recently discovered Shiv’s full name is Siobhan
Pronounced Shi-vahn, those crazy Irish.

They are, but at least Kendall has shown he’s capable of showing empathy with the kid who died and his family

I was coming to ask -- what the hell was Kendall doing. Hahah. So out of character. But hilarious.

$250 million for Greg. Damn.

Next weeks episode looks like it will be another awesome episode. In the courtroom.

Paw Paw is annoying as hell - running around on his high horse pontificating about the environment all while sucking off someone’s teat.

Loved Marcia this episode.
