Really good episode. But damn it’s getting exhausting with all the kids constantly screwing up over and over. Just when Roman starts to make things happen, he has to send the text


The high point of the season.

And Shiv telling Tom she doesn't love him as "foreplay" may be the most savage thing on the show.

She makes it hard to make me want to put it in her.

I want Tom to frick over Shiv more than I want Logan to go down

Shiv is becoming one of my most disliked characters of all time. She’s just awful

These days shows have to put a disclaimer about suicide before the episode if there is one.


I was thinking he passed out and accidentally drowned. Not suicide. He was basically comatose when he kids walked away.

That episode was so good. It was uncomfortable in almost every scene and it was fantastic.

Ok I had to come back and eat some crow. That episode was by far the best of the series, and one of the best hours worth of television I’ve seen all year. It’s like they switched writers or something and all the characters were brought back to life. Every scene was intense and game changing. That was the show I remembered.

When Roman said “don’t want to open Pandora’s box, because it’s full of more dicks” … I lost it

Tom with his best line too. “Oh look here, the man who is dying of thirst is suddenly a mineral water critic”

Greg makes me so nervous when he talks. He can’t talk in complete sentences it is always stuttering. I would think he would get better as he aged lol

Almost all of them do it--Shiv and Kendall do the same thing. It's an exagerrated "tic" or stylistic choice of the show I think to make the dialog seem more natural.

I get it, if you go back to Sorkin shows like The Newsroom everyone has quick, perfect, witty, fast talking responses to every dialog, which also isn't real. I just think it's a little "much" in the opposite direction in this series.

She’s hot in the show but I don’t think she’s much to write home about in real life. I also have listened to her podcast and she’s pretty annoying.

That was a great episode. When Roman sent the dick pic to his dad, that’s probably the hardest I have laughed at any moment in the show. I still feel like everything is setting up for Kendall to have a big moment.

That’s going to super arse backfire because of Shiv’s insecurity over Roman.

Gerri knows where all of the bodies are buried but as legal counsel is smart enough to keep her own arse clean.

I’d be surprised if Kendall is dead. I’m betting for a coma.

I laughed my arse off at the Roman dick pic. Just died. It was so fricking awkward.

Also think Shiv and Tom joking with Greg and then tagging on Roman and the Countess was gold. A few solid one liners at that exchange.

Logan and Kendall’s “dinner” was ruthless. Kendall’s delusions that he’s a good person and Logan’s obsession with being in control of his children is so twisted.

I don't get why people say this. He's not a bad looking dude, and she's not that hot either. They're a good match looks wise.

And I know Greg gets picked on but I'd bet he has a high paying job there, and while he may not be in the inside circle, he's on the PJs and taking vacations with them, etc.

I feel like he's more successful than the girl, who is basically a glorified personal assistant. Not that Greg earned his job but you get the point.
