Roman has won the day.īack with the comparatively normal people, Comfry agrees to a date with Greg mainly because Kendall told Greg to stay away from her. This is so amusing to Madsen that he agrees to meet Logan face to face. Egged on by Roman, Madsen pisses on Roman’s phone as it struggles to load Star Go, Waystar’s agonisingly slow streaming platform. Roman begins to charm him, despite Matsson telling him that the sooner Logan dies, the better. CREDIT: SkyĪfter Kendall tries to sabotage the deal by telling Matsson that he should buy Waystar, not the other way around, his plan to stop the siblings reaching Matsson fails. ‘Succession’ season three episode seven sees Tom learn he won’t have to go to prison. Downing a shot, he begins to slide down an ugly hill. Kendall’s misery is compounded by the realisation that his siblings are there only to court Matsson. “I am repeatedly entering my own mother,” says Roman, popping in and out of the tunnel.Īfter Tom laughs at Greg’s plan to ask out Comfry (Dasha Nekrasova) – “It’s like a haunted scarecrow asking out Jackie Onassis” – Kendall opens a card from Logan to find an offer to buy Kendall’s shares in the company for more than $2billion. Roman and others are informed that they have just arrived at the birth of Kendall Roy. The first attraction the guests encounter is a tunnel designed to look like a vagina. He explains, in an unrelated story, that he is wearing his arm in a sling because he slipped during an Irish jig prompted by his presidential poll numbers (“close to 1 per cent”, we learn later). But, aware that Matsson will be at Kendall’s party, Shiv (Sarah Snook) and Roman (Kieran Culkin) plan to make inroads.Īt the party, Connor ( Alan Ruck) refuses to take his coat off, despite the event being indoors. After Logan (Brian Cox) passes Tom ( Matthew Macfadyen) and mutters, “I’ll remember,” referring to the fact that Tom was willing to sacrifice himself, Tom celebrates by smashing everything in Greg’s (Nicholas Braun) office, kissing him on the forehead before dancing out.Īs a result of tech CEO Lukas Matsson (Alexander Skarsgård) refusing to meet Logan himself, Logan declares that the deal to buy his company may be jettisoned in favour of another dalliance with Pierce. The company is likely to face a simple fine, and everyone will be able to avoid jail time. Their conclusion looks likely to be that there was “nothing systemic” in the way that Waystar behaved.
Team Logan, meanwhile, have had “a vibration”, telling them that the DoJ think Kendall overpromised in his infamous press conference. Even his girlfriend Naomi (Annabelle Dexter-Jones), someone careful not to upset him, is clearly unsure what the hell he’s doing. We begin with the man himself, singing ‘Honesty’ by Billy Joel – a song he is rehearsing because he intends to literally crucify it at his party by standing in front of a cross, making some kind of point to the masses. Any indication that he may have had the upper hand over Team Logan has gradually but consistently begun to disappear over the course of the seven episodes, and ‘Too Much Birthday’ sees him at his lowest ebb this season. Lots of vaginas and misery in this episode of Succession, as Kendall (Jeremy Strong) truly unravels while celebrating his 40th birthday.
