This is how Tom got the black eye he had in 1.06 - this is from after Thanksgiving and was cut for time.

succession s4 e7 recap: 馃崋馃崋馃嚭馃嚫
this week's recap is nothing short of a trauma dump from this here political operative.
never in my life did i think i would relate to nate, but there truly is nothing scarier than election eve....
we start the episode off the disguisting brothers, preparing for a long night at ATN.
tom has seemingly still not slept and greggory peggory is still recovering from his night on the town with one lukas mattson.
Tumblr media
a few levels up, team shiv and team roman are also gearing up for a long night.
other than the distinct lack of booze, i'd say the vibes are pretty realistic.
Tumblr media
roman with mencken was always my least favorite version of roman. this episode is no exception.
in fact, i think i'm demonstratively anti-roman in this episode.
and gerri is nowhere to be seen:((
shiv is worried about mattson letting greg in on their little plans.
Tumblr media
as she should. rule number 1: don't talk to greg.
rava has to deal with kendall yet again.
Tumblr media
this woman is a saint. someone save her.
ken is still on his "everything i do, i do for my children"-shit. you know, everything except ensure that a fascist doesn't make it to the white house.
honestly, this episode is really, very good.
i never wanna watch it again.
mencken bonds with roman over the fact that they both hate the word 'narrative'.
Tumblr media
he is prepared to lose and for a millisecond i was hopeful.
tom and greg do coke behind a whiteboard.
Tumblr media
this is the right wing politics that i know. 10/10 great representation.
however, we all know how tom is with drugs. he does them all wrong and feels wrong and immediately begins spiraling.
Tumblr media
my body is very bad at many things, such as producing enough serotonin, but years of campaigning means my stomach has superpowers.
gas station sushi? no problem. leftover pizza from the night before? don't feel a thing.
i'm stronger than tom, is what i'm saying. activists just do it better, i guess.
connor represents all politicians, all the time:
Tumblr media
now, i respect all the politicians i work for loads, but there is just something inherently narcisstic about having six people cater to your needs constantly.
and most of them are unfortunately not as funny as connor.
tom is being a little shit.
Tumblr media
with no moves left, shiv tells him she's pregnant.
it's not entirely unreasonable of tom to ask if it's even true, or if it's a tactic telling him that, but he's still a little shit for doing it.
i hate hate hate that we only got like four minutes of shiv girlbossing before she was back to doing everything wrong again... i support women's wrongs, but c'mon:(((
connor is by far my favorite part of this episode.
Tumblr media
i just think they are neat<3
ken has his sister's back and i could rewatch those few seconds over and over and over.
Tumblr media
fuck tom and his stupid touch screens.
Tumblr media
and fuck roman too.
basically, there's a fire in wisconsin and ballots have been lost. historically, those votes have been overwhelmingly democrat, but roman wants them to call wisconsin for mencken, disregarding the burnt up ballots altogether.
he sends his talking points to ravenhead, who goes on an on-air rant, and the rest of the sibs take to the floor at ATN as well, much to greg's dismay.
shiv tries to threaten greg so that he doesn't tell her brothers about her plans with mattson.
Tumblr media
as much as i love shiv threatening to pull greg's organs out his asshole, it isn't very effective.
there's an incident with wasabi.
Tumblr media
i question a lot of decisions made in this episode, but perhaps most curious of all is the choice of lemon flavored la croix??????
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
i would laugh more at this if i wasn't so ridden with anxiety.
connor lands an embassadorship in the new mencken administration.
willa is skeptical of the fascism etc but still....
Tumblr media Tumblr media
connor makes a speech. i love it when he does that.
we get a brief moment with the old guard, gerri not included.
Tumblr media
we get basically no karl:/
instead we get roman being an asshole scene after scene after scene.
Tumblr media
pls stop i can't take it anymore!!!
kendall is torn between team shiv and team roman, presumably because he can't decide what outcome will be most helpful to his own ambitions.
oh and there's the whole "my daughter might be in danger if mencken wins", but that seems to be secondary.
Tumblr media
because he was vulnerable with shiv for a minute, he feels even more betrayed when he learns about her plans with mattson.
Tumblr media
from greg of course. fucking greg.
the hugging era is truly a thing of the past.
Tumblr media
i wish i had more jokes, but honestly this episode just made me very, very sad.
roman, ken and tom decide to call the election for mencken, despite shiv's desperate attempts.
Tumblr media
and i just have to say, i know shiv isn't altruistic. i know she thinks a jimenez win will benefit her more than mencken will. i knooooow.
it's still very sad.
they call it for mencken.
Tumblr media
me every single election night.
roman is very much in the camp of nothing fucking matters, and i guess he is right in a way.
Tumblr media
it won't really matter to him or kendall.
it will for sophie, though. it will for jess.
ouffff....
roman now has a direct line into the west wing.
Tumblr media
that being said, i don't think he's a very reliable partner for them.
in the end, mencken will do what is good for mencken. the same goes for roman.
i think ken might end up regretting this whole endeavor very, very soon.
tom becomes the face of this political scandal.
Tumblr media
can't wait for it to bite him in the arse.
shiv makes a final rallying cry to mattson, but it somehow feels hollow to me.
Tumblr media
this shiv girlie is starting to lose hope.
anyway, rava doesn't want ken to come over to see the kids because he prioritized his own project of becoming his dad over keeping them safe.
i guess i agree with him that the poison does, perhaps, drip down.
what a depressing episode!
i'm glad we are getting something to celebrate next week - logan's funeral wiii !!
