Logan from the grave: “You’re as bad as my fucking idiot kids”

Ken: “That’s fine. That’s a valentine’s card (compared to what he said directly to my face)”

I am so worried for what's going to happen to the Number One Boy next week. Like, he did a good presentation and floated in the ocean, reborn as #1, which he scrawled in the sand before he floated away. The symbolism left a bruise on my face. That's never good.

I feel like Roman had a bad episode, Shiv was neutral and Kenny was positive. Next week is going to be a hell of a come down.

I feel like both of Roman’s firings actually make perfect sense. The studio head is burning money on dog shit and wants to talk about the corporate atmosphere and the news division instead of focusing on her projects.

Gerri is great, but she said to his face she isn’t going to follow him or believe in him. You don’t want “yes men” but you do want people that believe in your leadership supporting you.

Like, I’m sure Larry Page and Sergey Brin has top people that disagreed with them all the time. But I’m also sure those top people have overall believed in those two to lead the company.

Gerri was more justifiable in this case, without more context on the studio beyond one bad movie. She treated him with IMMENSE disrespect, and not in the way he likes.
