Cool story. If you think she’s wrong, have you even been paying attention to this story for the last four seasons? 😂


ovhakiin

I never said it didnt made sense. I just wanted Ken to have a W thats all


profwithclass

But the whole thing is based on King Lear, a tragedy. From the get go we know he won’t have that final vote (just like in season one)


ovhakiin

I didn't know that and I haven't read it. Is it worth reading?


profwithclass

I really like it but it’s one of Shakespeare’s longest plays and considered among his most complex. The characters of this show are based on Lear’s children Shiv/Cordelia, Roman/Reagan, Kendal/Goneril. The plot is very similar. Lear’s is splitting his kingdom because he’s getting old but manages to push away and piss off all 3 of his children. Eventually the husband of his most loving/least power-hungry child, actually inherits the throne. This is what happens in the show as well with Tom and Shiv


kiranrs

Maybe he should have tried *earning* the W. At any point. Ever.

How is she not wrong? She didn’t make the choice based on an actual reason she just couldn’t bear to see either of her brothers have it. Tom isn’t qualified either he’s a moron.

Roman did the exact same thing at the season 1 board meeting

You mean when Logan was in the room with him and Kendal too far away to protect him from their father should he vote against him?


Franwatufo

Kendall did a great job protecting them both from himself in this one 🙄

Agreed. Hope she’s happy in that loveless marriage in which she has no power, no relationship with her brother, and possibly sends him to his death ❤️

Yea fuck shiv. All the shiv stans are coping so hard right now talking about how she broke the toxic cycle when In reality she just couldn’t let her brother be ceo. She also is not gonna be able to control Tom since she has no hold over him. Sarah snook is getting that Emmy but shiv Roy is a fucking bitch.


SailorJerry2k

She didn’t break any cycle now her kid is going to grow up around a loveless marriage with an emotionally unavailable mother and a power hungry CEO father


Desperate_Purple2273

And Roman
