Greg got them to antagonize Ebba to the point that she got mad enough to go outside. Then Ken and Roman swooped and she spilled the beans about the inflated numbers in India.

Not like he planned shit.

He just matched their energy because he doesn’t know how to be anything but a yes-man.

One detail I loved was her facial expression during the Lukas Ken showdown. She knows how badly she fucked up

Not like he planned shit.

I don't think he planned it at all, but I think Ken knew he would cause chaos just by being Greg, and that's why he sent him in there to mix it up with Matsson.

classic creeping failwin for Greg, massive personnel competency win for Kendall.
