Note: This article contains major spoilers for the current season of Succession.

The king is dead; long live the king’s children. Last week’s episode of Succession delivered the inevitable: Logan Roy finally passed from this mortal coil and into the unknown. Logan’s death immediately was felt by the Roy kids, who bonded in a time of crisis and showed rare signs of empathy toward one another. As for Tom, Cousin Greg, and Gerri, well … they showed they were already scheming to take control of the Waystar Royco empire.
