Doctor says something about "our journey" to Shiv which makes me think it might be donor sperm not Tom
― Zelda Zonk, Tuesday, 18 April 2023 00:43 (one year ago) link
it’s a 20 week checkin with the doctor so shiv is pretty far along, imo! far enough for aling it to be feasible that it IS tom’s, circa pre-tuscan betrayal imo would love it if kerry turns out to be preggo too

Also Shiv's falling on the stairs for no good reason. Could it be foreshadowing a miscarriage
― Zelda Zonk, Tuesday, 18 April 2023 01:43 (one year ago) link
i feel like that was more to show how flustered & in her feelings she was about ken & rom as co-ceo’s like we know, but they really want us to know
― werewolves of laudanum (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 18 April 2023 01:52 (one year ago) link
I heard "princess" as well, so I was expecting Shiv to be on the paper.

and I def don't buy Frank referring to Ken as "princess"
What “bad stuff on dad” was ken talking to Hugo about at the end?

I think he was just referring to the option Hugo had just laid out for the kids which they rejected. Like that Logan was becoming incompetent etc

Karl uses the word "princess" iirc? Could be wrong. That also led directly into a vent about Gerri blocking him and him wanting out with his financial package and going to that island investment.

The Princess Diaries
― Critique of the Goth Programme (Neil S), Tuesday, 18 April 2023 08:12 (one year ago) link
i found last night's ep p excruciating, not in a bad way, but even though these characters are mostly amoral heels it is kind of painful to watch them selfishly and ineptly wander into oblivion. greg's running commentary of kerry's arrival at the house was gruelling - felt p sorry for kerry, tho obviously marcia's twisting of the knife was, i guess, justified, at least in her eyes. the ending is going to be super-bleak, isn't it?
― dicbo=v2-ubswizzb&hrt (stevie), Tuesday, 18 April 2023 08:18 (one year ago) link
I enjoyed this fine, last week tough to follow. But also found myself feeling that ending it with S4 was a good call. Some of the dynamics felt a bit familiar (although I feel this show will have at least one epic rug-pull lined up before the finale).
― meat and two vdgg (emsworth), Tuesday, 18 April 2023 11:03 (one year ago) link
Yeah definitely. I mean, they've not even been joint CEOs for more than 10 minutes and Kendall's already going behind Roman's back with the Bad Dad thing

Hugo's own smile in response to that like he was almost enjoying Kendall's ability to act like his Dad.
― nashwan, Tuesday, 18 April 2023 11:33 (one year ago) link
He's so great. I get really fed up with the pieces about him that ridicule his method, etc - the results are stunning. I like people who commit to what they do, and his excessive efforts absolutely pay off with this performance.
― dicbo=v2-ubswizzb&hrt (stevie), Tuesday, 18 April 2023 12:03 (one year ago) link
eh i guess it's like if you work with someone who does good work, that's cool but he's probably a lot to deal with even for an actor. yeah he's top notch for sure but so is brian cox & kiernan and sarah shook and alan ruck by all accounts none of them pull that kind of diva stuff

enjoyed hugo's daughter's insider trading giving kendall leverage to put out the bad dad press release behind roman's back
also, pretty clear that marsha hosed connor on the sale of the apartment, right? no way that place would have gone for $63 million on the open market, is the sense i got
first half felt a little rote, like they were almost obligated to show everybody's claim to the throne, felt a little going through the motions. the mysterious piece of paper in logan's safe felt like a law school exam. episode got some juice going after that though

various thoughts going way back up incl last episode
re shiv - she'd already told connor re pops not coming, think she actually says when kendall comes to get her that they owe her for that - just chatting with ppl on way back
think shiv's baby is pretty clearly Tom's - don't think they'd toss in another option here
kendall's capacity for self-destruction always amazing
always happy to see stewy and his interactions with kendall
re apartment sale - 63 million didnt seem high to me and a quick google search shows Architectural Digest thinks could have been more https://www.architecturaldigest.com/story/could-marcia-have-made-more-money-off-of-logans-apartment#:~:text=Above%20all%2C%20its%20location%20directly,during%20the%20show's%20first%20season.
I'd missed Marcia
― H in Addis, Tuesday, 18 April 2023 13:40 (one year ago) link
I think it's ambiguous in terms of her having told Connor yet, but when they get him in the room to tell him about Logan she says "Dad's on an airplane to Sweden, but they're coming back. We think he died. They...they think he died." I mean either way I guess she did tell him he wasn't coming to the wedding...
― omar little, Tuesday, 18 April 2023 13:57 (one year ago) link
I just kind of assumed that Marcia was happy to have a quick sale without dealing with bullshit, even if she didn't milk Connor for all she could. I mean it was probably also thrown in to underscore that she isn't their to mourn, she's there to make moves.
― Maxmillion D. Boosted (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Tuesday, 18 April 2023 14:00 (one year ago) link
Plus the place isn't even necessarily hers to sell (who knows yet what Logan pencilled about that) and she may have been well aware of this.

wait what's the gameplan there if it isn't hers to sell? connor hands her two big bags of money, she laughs victoriously and jumps out the window into a waiting helicopter? xp
