One thing that really stood out to me when comparing the S4 script to the actual episodes was how different Roman acts in the finale when Shiv changes her mind.

It's more or less the same after Kendall lies about the waiter, but up until that point the script has him actively pushing Shiv to vote Kendall in and he actually seems angry at her:

Whereas in the final scene, he's quiet in the background for most of the initial argument and this is literally the only thing he says to Shiv about the vote:

He's not telling her to decide one way or another, and he's not trying to change her mind (he probably knows that she won't). He literally just wants it to be over.

It's such a good change and feels way more in line with where he is mentally at this point. He's clearly uncomfortable with Kendall being in charge in both versions, but the final one reflects how his headspace has changed since the funeral and leads much more naturally into his 'it's all bullshit' bit at the end.

#idk it just seemed worth highlighting #i did a clip instead of a gif for that last bit bc i feel like the tone of his voice is pretty important to get the vibe #succession #succession scripts #succession season 4 #successsion finale #with open eyes #roman roy #shiv roy #kendall roy #image description in alt

are these assaults gonna be ongoing?

#tomgreg #sad sack wasp trap #1x9 pre-nuptial #2x4 safe room #with open eyes #the consistent remorse and increasingly grand apologies....#inb4 anyone accuses me of romanticizing abuse. the kind of lashing out tom does is clearly #out of an inability to be vulnerable #and also they're not actually in a relationship for any of this time. it's like toxic male friendship stuff #which i fully believe just isn't gonna happen anymore #at least not once they're actually together #ntm these are isolated incidents brought on by outside stress #and with the last there ceases to be any kind of physical power imbalance bc greg hits back so. yeah #mine

In honor of the finale of Succession tonight, here's the John Berryman poem that has been the source of all the finale titles in the series.

saying tom “won” is disingenuous because it implies that becoming ceo of waystar is winning in the first place. if we’re assigning a winner, it’s unequivocally roman. it’s ambiguous as to what happens to him, and there’s still a certain amount of pain in the final smile he gives but i think he’s the closest to being free out of all of them. at its core, succession is about the cycle of trauma and abuse as it plays out in each respective characters’ insatiable lust for power and this pursuit has only wrought pain time and time again. there’s a reason none of the kids have ever “won” on these terms, because the system of abuse works actively against them every time and their participation only feeds into it. “winning” is not success on the terms of the abuser. “winning” is walking away from the table and choosing not to play.

dream song 29 being recontextualised by the finale is sooooo fucking harrowing…..kendall recanting his admission of killing the waiter being the final insidious thread connecting his arc to that poem wherein the speaker realises he didn’t kill anyone at all. nobody is ever missing. the construction of reality through what is said. AGH

People who hate Shiv or think she was wrong for what she did in the finale are so unserious to me. "How could she screw over Kendall and stop them from keeping the company???" oh you mean the guy who promised they'd run it together and then immediately double crossed her? And then spent the rest of the season trying to cut Roman out of the company too?? How could she betray that guy??? real mystery.

#like are y'all just pretending that didn't happen? he was literally trying to cut them out the SECOND he thought he had a shot at the top #spot. why should she stay loyal to the plan if he literally never has??? be serious now #and yes she stabbed him in the back too but he started it and honestly what did you expect from these people? they've spent their entire #lives being trained to drag each other down for the top spot. that's not changing because they got along for 3 months and their dad died #also like 'we could have had a happy ending if she hadn't done that!!1!' first of all them keeping the company would NOT have been a happy #ending at all. and second of all. i'm sorry. were you expecting a straightforward 'we win' ride off into the sunset???#from the 'the poison drips through' family trauma show????? be so fucking forreal. them getting out is the happiest possible #ending this show could have that wouldn't immediately ring false and feel unsatisfying #and before anyone tries to start something i am not a kendall hater or a shiv stan i'm just being honest #succession #shiv roy #kendall roy #siobhan roy #succession finale #with open eyes #roman roy

pretty sure that's boa constrictors.

#tomgreg #i went to market #all the bells say #with open eyes #tom wambsgans #ewan roy #greg hirsch #it's about warnings of 'suffocation' coming from a man who's never shown you an ounce of warmth #and like maybe if you die at least you'll have FELT something #but also. where ewan was correct? tom was there to protect him #he's a garden snake in that nest of vipers and he suffocated greg with love #mine #gifs

season one finale: shiv betrays tom by revealing her infidelity and lack of interest in committing exclusively to him, an act he can never ever forgive

season two finale: shiv trying to save tom and their marriage, sacrificing her dad's respect

season three finale: tom betrays shiv in favor of logan

season four finale: shiv throws her lot in with tom to stay in very limited proximity to waystar, sealing her fate as the more subservient spouse. tom has *finally* secured her exclusive devotion by virtue of his power over her father's company.

#AHHHHHHHHH #succession #succession spoilers #with open eyes #succession hbo #shiv roy #tom wambsgans #shiv x tom #the way these two anchored the show!!!#succession meta
