In one five-minute sequence toward the end, the Succession series finale absolutely floored us

must have had plenty of experience doing off-camera over the years — before yielding to his desire to be crowned king. The scene in their mom’s kitchen, where Shiv and Roman mix up a disgusting smoothie for Kendall, while Roman defiantly licks his stepfather’s cheese, is by far the happiest and at peace we’ve seen all three of them to be in each other’s company.

Which brings us to those five minutes. I could write several thousand words about the rest of “With Open Eyes” — about Greg selling out Tom in a futile bid to make “The Quad” into reality, about Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson, Eili Harboe, Alexander Skarsgård, Kieran Culkin in the ‘Succession’ series finale.As Frank goes around the conference room table to get a yes or no vote on the GoJo deal, things seem to be going the way Kendall had maneuvered it. Stewy and Ewan are in favor, for instance, while Sandy and Sandi are opposed. Roman hesitates for a moment, perhaps unable to let go of the pain of being passed over, before finally voting yes.

History doesn’t always repeat with this series, but it rhymes. Once again, Kendall has called a board vote, convinced he has the numbers to take over control of the company. When he did this midway through Season One, he got stuck in traffic, allowing Logan to bully his way into retaining power. This time, the vote is much closer, and Kendall is physically present the whole time, but he’s just as unprepared as ever.
