Succession's ending, explained — Why Shiv did that

Why did Shiv do that in Succession's final ever episode?

We're all grieving. The Roys are still grieving their father after his surprise death earlier in the season, and now we're also grieving the end ofBut even before Logan's death, grief was always the driving factor here.

. Caroline calls Shiv up to let her know, and after Kendall gets wind of this too, the siblings all converge to try and sway Roman over to secure the vote they need. Because just as this Roy sibling fight gets underway, Matsson is meeting up with Tom to suggest a proposition:Translated from Swedish into English, this essentially reads as, "Shiv has too many ideas and I don't like it because she's a woman. I'd rather just have sex with her."

Not only does this help Ken avoid an award business pitch during dinner, one with the "creamiest" of margins, but it also gives him the upper hand he needs over Shiv. Kendall suggests going for a swim, because diving into water worked so well for him at the end of season one. This gives Roman and Shiv a chance to meet privately and talk while it also gives Jeremy Strong a chance to show off his pecs.

"You can smile, bitch," says Shiv, and then something miraculous happens. Our resident sad boy actually does crack a smile, which makes what's to come even more heartbreaking.
