...And Rupert Murdoch punched my child with a can of cranberry sauce.
Great episode with some gorgeously lush night and shadowed indoor photography. James Cromwell always commands respect with his air of intelligence and integrity. And quoting Bertrand Russel, to boot. Kieran is kind of the polar opposite here, but Roman's impish chicanery makes for a lively palate cleanser in between tense moments. Kendall continues to rise to evince the show's premise.
It was quite a good episode, rather tense, suspenseful and full of intrigues. It seems to me that Tom is definitely using Greg and not treating him fair, though it looked like Greg has copied some of the incriminating documents he was meant to destroy. He seems a bit naive and it may get into huge trouble if he makes a mistake. Tom himself is not happy about pre-nup with Shiv, I got the impression that it is implied in the pre-nup she can cheat on him but he cannot so he is used by her in turn. Kendall is concerned about his dad not being in his right senses and possibly destroying the company, so he tries to find allies to support the vote of no confidence against Logan, however, it backfires after his talk with Logan's estranged brother Ewan. Ewan himself if quite an interesting character, the details of the feud between the brothers is not explained but it seems that Ewan is very principled and loyal, even to his brother as he does not want to support the non-confidence vote. The quarrel between the brothers was a great scene. Logan also gets aggressive as he hits one of Kendall's kids when he loses the eponymous "I went to market" game. Marcia looks rather positive, caring for Logan and playing the peacemaker in the family, but I still don't know what her endgame is. I guess these are all of the highlights of the episode. I was in a bit of doubt about the show, but this was a good one.
I'm luke warm on this show but this episode is gold and Adam Arkin's personality is all over it
Guys, one punch, out of nowhere. Like this? I don't even know how to react. Hahahahahaha
"We go around the table and we each say what we're thankful for."
Ah, Tommy. You've been around the Roys long enough that you should know how to read a fuckin' room. Or them, at the very least...
"And I'm thankful that I am gonna be marrying into one of the most vital and interesting and kind and loving families in the world."
...but especially your fiancée.
"At least I'm only getting fucked by one member of this family, yeah?" Atta girl, Willa.
I'm still on the fence about Logan playing up his recovery and "mental state". I get the impression that his public behavior -- like in the office -- is all an act to push Kendall into doing something rash...
Given how off putting and arrogant Kendall was in the first episode, they've done a great job of showing how corrupt and unlikable the family around him is.
Logan is so dislikable - I don't know where that character can go from here.
Tom is so erratic that it's hard to place him.
Greg is so unnerving, just in everything that he does - that you can't root for him.
i hateeeeee Tom so much
