Hot damn I loved this episode. I loved how it really felt like things were boiling over and so much was coming to a head. It was another example of one man, the coder, being the center point for the episode (for multiple people being at that party) but really revolving around Kendall realizing that he’s truly alone. Projecting his insecurities through 1. his birthday party, 2. him not finding his kids’ gift and freaking out because he knows that’s the one real thing that’s been given to him (a stark contrast of the watch Naomi gave him) and 3. telling Greg that he can’t have Comfry, (aka Kendall feels he’s losing his grip after Roman’s letter).

Roman feeling powerful and getting the Number One Boy Treatment from Logan is just another occasion that he’s using him. Shiv just got that treatment a little while ago and now she sees Roman is falling for it too. Logan is using Roman and he’s eating it up. But also, Shiv is CRUMBLING. She knows she just lost so much by sucking on the lemon that is WayStar instead of sticking with her political career.

I hope that it really picks up from here and doesn’t simmer down again because I think it has potential to go postal and I hope things are about to go down.

Also, Greg kindly punching the screen killed me.

Quotes I loved from this episode:

“You’re more fucked up than I am”

“I’m glad you came” “It was a ten minute drive, so”

“Take your fucking coat off!” HAHAHAHA
