Notas del episodio
Logan Roy announces Waystar's pursuit of Pierce Global Media at a Hungarian hunting retreat, rehiring ousted ally Frank Vernon for his connection to PGM's Nan Pierce. When word leaks that the Pierces already know about the bid, Logan locks the room and stages "Boar on the Floor," a humiliation ritual targeting Karl, Tom, and Greg. Kendall exposes Roman as the back-channel to Naomi Pierce, Logan polls the room and finds zero support for the deal, and proceeds anyway. In parallel, Shiv fails to stop Connor's anti-tax campaign video and sleeps with an actor from Willa's play, while Greg is later cleared when a deceased board member is revealed as the biographer's true source.
This episode reframes Logan's leadership as performance rather than consensus-building, showing that loyalty rituals matter more to him than strategic agreement. You'll understand the dual motive behind the PGM bid — blocking the Sandy-Stewy proxy fight while settling an old personal score — and how Roman's unauthorized outreach reshapes the sibling power balance just as Shiv is summoned to formally begin her succession track.
