going back upthread to the people who think "the paper" has some other bombshell info besides the mention of kendall - the kids all look at the paper and no one makes any mention of anything else on there so i'm not sure what other important info could be there? unless they all skim over it bc they're distracted by the kendall thing. but i believe you all are overthinking it

think the main point of 'the paper' is to show how even after his death everyone is still terrified of and traumatized by Logan, it has no legal bearing - is years out of date (probably a cpl) but still exerts power over them - though it doesnt even have the weight of his last wishes Marcia i'm sure got the flat tied up when she and her lawyer held Logan hostage over messy divorce possibility cpl seasons back and the kids seemed pretty certain it was hers clear and free and they'd take any opportunity to screw her over if they could

Agreed. The old guard may have speculated in a comic mode about flushing it down the toilet, but they still couldn't bring themselves to actually do it

Probably a good idea, given the state of security and surveillance and the late man’s home.

xpost - Yeah The Vulture has one but, as I learned last season, there is a whole subculture of people doing power rankings on their substacks and blogs. It's a much bigger thing that I expected!

I liked how naturally Kendall used his knowledge of Hugo's vulnerability (re his daughter's stock sale) to get him to do what he wants. He's got a little bit of the old man in him at least.

I mostly thought Kendall wanted to shit on his dad for personal reasons, not so much that he thought it would benefit him in the company. But I agree it's likely to backfire becz that's his norm.
― a man often referred to in the news media as the Duke of Saxony (tipsy mothra), Tuesday, 18 April 2023 19:50 (one year ago) link
you guys really think kendall making an impulsive decision on his own like five minutes after he agreed with roman and shiv that they're working as a team going forward is going to backfire???

Thought it was a possibility that Hugo’s skinny neck was because of cancer or something irl

Haha, guilty. I think there has been a version of this in every episode—something that wasn’t intended as ominous but was received as such. (Why did Kendall decide to push Matson? Why did Roman need to go onto the plane? What was on the paper - who is the princess??).

― omar little, Wednesday, 19 April 2023 04:17 (one year ago) link
Yeah, he did have Hodgkins Lymphoma and the treatment for that is pretty severe. In googling that, just to be sure, I see that he was in a three-year relationship with Michelle Pfeiffer at one stage. Fair play to the lad, that is some punching above your weight.

and Justin Theroux. Just after having a discussion with friends about how amazing The Leftovers was and how he's the only person my wife considered a celebrity crush...now to find out he and cousin greg are praying on 19 year olds in their shitty bar. Really sad.

Yeah, those are pretty gross allegations. Even if they are only partially true at best he's a skeevy creep, more likely even worse.

― change display name (Jordan), Thursday, 20 April 2023 18:05 (one year ago) link
sorry to share that info. Apparently he's now involved with the 18 year old star of his version of the Mosquito Coast. Don't let it cloud you, the third season of the Leftovers is as good as TV gets. Here's hoping Carrie Coon is uncancellable.

― change display name (Jordan), Monday, 24 April 2023 11:41 (one year ago) link
I think they’ll accept it. Everyone else wants it. I mean maybe Mattson is playing games but he seems like he actually wants the deal. Once he realized Kendall and Roman were trying to blow it up, he fucked them by going over the top (per Shiv’s advice that he could get it with a little bump in the price) and making it too good to turn down.
Of course there are still ways it could go wrong, but it seems like the sale is going through.

I loved how immediately Mattson saw what they were clumsily up to, another example of Ken and Rom not actually knowing how to do business. Mattson’s a toxic weirdo but he’s way out of their weight class in knowing what he’s doing.
