Instead of bringing their own fresh ideas to the family business, Sandi and Shiv are left defending the decisions their clearly diminished dads are making, even when those choices seem driven more by spite and paranoia than by sound business sense. When Sandi meets with Shiv to try to find what Gerri likes to call “a deal-space,” each of these two highly intelligent, highly capable women claim, “I just do what my dad tells me.” He has chronic medical problems, too, leaving him mostly immobile and inaudible. While the Roys are making multibillion-dollar decisions based on their patriarch’s mumbling about imaginary cats, Sandi Furness (Hope Davis) is in a suite nearby, consulting with her own father, Sandy (Larry Pine). This of course is the problem with staking everything on one imposing figurehead. But did he really know what he was saying at the time, or was he already slipping? (Roman: “Can we just give him some cranberry juice and then ask him about the deal again?”) Before Logan loses his wits, he gives the order that they should reject the big peacemaking deal their opponents have offered them. But the Roys have an even bigger problem. So no, there will be no Logan Roy wow factor at this shareholders’ meeting.

And he is convinced there is a dead cat under his chair. He does not appear to know where he is or why he is there. He calls Shiv “Marcia.” He asks to go the bathroom seemingly every few minutes. He has a urinary tract infection and when his assistant isn’t around to remind him to take his pills, Logan becomes disoriented. The general feeling among the Roy loyalists is that Logan needs to address the assembly, calming their nerves with his star power.īut just as Logan broke down physically in front of Josh last week, this week his body failed him again. Nearly all the action takes place in a luxury hotel and conference center, where the powerful people are sequestered in stew-rooms, scarfing down snacks and strategizing. This week’s episode is titled “Retired Janitors of Idaho.” It refers to the faction Roman fears will determine the fate of the Roy family if the Waystar shareholders get the chance to vote on the company’s leadership. Point made: Logan is still Waystar’s star. Then Logan walked through the door, and Josh literally pushed Kendall aside to greet the old man. And for a few seconds at least, he had his host’s undivided attention. Kendall had come to the meeting to show he could be the commanding, charismatic figure to lead Waystar into the future. There was a moment in last week’s episode of “Succession” when Kendall was standing on Josh Aaronson’s patio, reminding Josh of their longtime friendship and boasting about his upcoming birthday party - acting like a big shot, in other words.
