How did it fizzle? Roman stuck up for her at the table when she was getting thrown under the bus. Probably the most romantic thing done on this show.

Regarding the finale - we just watched last night. Loved it right along with everyone else.

I do think Logan was grooming Ken all season, but Logan wasn't sure what he was going to do. This was sort of a win-win for Logan. Either Kendall takes the fall and the company is saved, or Ken comes into his own and becomes a killer. I think the Logan smile at the end was his nod of approval and pride, seeing that Ken finally came into his own.

I also thought the Roman plot was interesting - him winning the day, but finally showing the business acumen to not take the deal - was kind of shocked to see him show such maturity there - but good for him. So who was that Laird guy and what was his position? I didn't really understand why he left just because they decided against doing the deal.

And several questions I hope they answer next season:

-How long had Ken been plotting with Greg? I kind of think it had been going on a while and that maybe Greg really didn't blow off his uncle.

-Are we going to see any more of the super-hero / mole woman team?

-Now that Ken dropped the bomb on Logan - will Logan take him down with the manslaughter incident?

-Could Ken have been conspiring with Stewy all along? I mean, he knew he was in Greece. And this will surely upset the shareholders and make it a slam dunk for Sandy and Stewy to get all the votes.

Greg told Ken about the documents a long time ago. Ken set up Greg with a FREE badass bachelor pad. Just as Logan was grooming Ken, Ken was grooming Greg

When I read your post and then saw the title of the link...

One of my favorite scenes in Braveheart

Finally got to watch tonight and I was not disappointed. Put me in the camp that thinks Logan wanted this. Him shushing Roman so he could listen is what sealed it for me.

My dad was the type to always make sure I knew he was a step ahead of me. If it was tossing the baseball, he always made sure his throws stung my hand more if I happened to catch him. He wasn't the type to let me win anything, didn't matter. If I was going to beat him, I was going to get his best game no matter what.

I don't think Logan was going to give his kids anything when it came to the company. He wasn't going to walk away, and he wasn't going to hand it off. Someone had to take it from him. Kendall tried once and failed after he got his dad's best game. Now he's trying again, and the old man is proud, but not going to roll over for him

It's also like every Shakespearean trope rolled into one show, and it works brilliantly. Logan is Polonious using Shiv as a pawn. He's King Lear turning his kids against each other and himself. I guess all that remains is whether Kendall is Macbeth or not.

No new episode tonight, damn you HBO.

Ummm, that's gonna be a problem for at least a few weeks.
