HUGO BAKER: Hey, Ken.

Just wanted to be on hand
to smooth and say welcome home.

Who are they?

Uh, additional manpower
for the new role.

Okay.
Welcome, "additional manpower."

They can fuck off
until I need them.

HUGO: Mm-hmm.

I just wanna show my face,
check in with the grays,

and then get to the plane.

Yeah? I'd rather have more time
other end, okay?

- For sure.
- Maybe I get in early

and fucking slip a Mickey
in Matsson's meatballs.

HUGO: (SIGHS) Okay,
we'll make sure

the plane is ready to go.

Before takeoff, might be nice
to get a shot of you and Roman

on the, uh, candid shot.
"Stepping up."

"CE-bros" is kinda
the bad version.

Shall we, maybe,
not do the bad version?

HUGO: Agreed.

(HUGO CLEARS THROAT)

(STAFF APPLAUDING)

KENDALL: Thank you.

- (APPLAUSE CONTINUES)
- KENDALL: Thank you.

Thank you. Boy, you have
a knack for the theatrics.

How about one of these?

KENDALL: You get any sleep?

Uh, a little bit. Did you get
the condolence assistants?

Yeah. Uh-huh.

What do you think?
Old Guard, loading us up

- with human listening devices?
- ROMAN ROY: Hmm.

All right,
look at you fucking chumps.

- ROMAN: Yeah.
- KENDALL: This the Romey A-Team?

ROMAN: This is the team.

KENDALL: What's shaking?
You camp out overnight out here?

Yeah, I got here early,
I'm just getting briefed.

Should I get Shiv?

Uh, Bastian.
Could you get Shiv, please?

KENDALL: Okay,
so what's bubbling?

You know, short-range top-lines?

Studio would like to schedule
a call this morning, red flag.

We're okaying Kalispitron
reshoots, panicky vibes.

Second producer signed off
on leave,

citing "mental collapse
slash overload."

- (ROMAN LAUGHS)
- Uh-huh. We okay it.

- Yeah? We're balls deep already.
- ROMAN: Hmm.

Oh, yeah,
I think, gotta keep spending.

I will say "no" a lot,

and shout, obviously,
initially, but yeah.

KENDALL: And you got my email

on Matsson angles,
deal thoughts?

Yeah, which one?
You sent several.

The last one.
"Ignore previous emails."

ROMAN: Yeah, great. Thanks
for putting me through all that.

We're good here,
by the way, guys.

- Yeah, thank you.
- You can all fuck off. Yeah.

- Great. Okay.
- Don't talk to my team, Hugo.

- So, uh, talk on the plane?
- ROMAN: Yeah.

Oh, here we go.
March of the Emperor Penguins.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

- Morning.
- KENDALL: Morning.

- ROMAN: Morning.
- Welcome back, huh?

- KENDALL: Thank you.
- Congrats.

KENDALL:
Nothing to celebrate, but...

Yeah. So, what is this?
You guys are re-interviewing

- for your jobs?
- No, just a check-in pre-Norway.

ROMAN: Oh, okay. I think we did
the check-in on the board call,

and on the follow-up call,
and with your 33,000 emails.

Well, just anything we can do
to be helpful.

In terms of, like, uh,

dry-running
the negotiation or...

Uh-huh. Okay.
"We trust you absolutely,

now tell us every single word
you plan on saying to him."

(LAUGHS)

KENDALL: Look, we wanna
knock this out of the park.

Squeeze an extra three,
four dollars a share.

Rome and me. Shiv on point here
to advise and liaise.

Oh, cool, yeah.
Did I miss the invite?

Uh, what's the conflab?
Boomers versus Zoomers?

ROMAN: No,
this is unscheduled, Shiv.

- (CELL PHONE RINGING)
- Mom and Dad just stopped by

to make sure we have food
in the fridge.

- (CHUCKLES)
- ROMAN: Uh, okay, Matsson,

uh, asking-- he's--
he's saying not to freak out.

- What?
- KENDALL: Freak out, why?

- What, is he wobbling?
- ROMAN: Look...

Did-- Did you all just get this?
Do you have this?

They're asking for everyone.

They're requesting us all
in Norway,

plus division heads,
bunch of EVPs. I forwarded.

He actually sent
a list of names.

Okay,
so that's sinister as fuck.

KENDALL: What is it,
do we think?

FRANK VERNON:
"Cultural compatibility check."

GERRI KELLMAN:
It's early, but it is smart.

Okay, but why check
cultural compatibility

if we haven't done the deal?

I guess because we are
probably doing the deal?

It's positive.

Unless he's looking
for a way out.

Yeah, or invite everyone
so he doesn't just have to deal

with the B-roll brothers?
Can I have a look at this list?

FRANK: Yeah, yeah,
you should all have it, I se--

- You-- You're on the list.
- No, you didn't send it to me.

What does it look like
if we say no?

We don't play that weak?

Um, I guess in the interest
of doing the deal

that we all want,

maybe we should,
you know, play ball.

Yeah. No. Great. Great. Good.

Let's go get the deal.

It's musical electric chairs.

Find out who they like,

welcome to the lime pit.

You're on the other plane,
by the way.

Yeah, I know. Thanks, Hugo.

But-- But you're not worried, right?

- Me? No.
- You're good.

With the ATN carveout,
I'm not worried about Matsson.

I'm worried about being whacked

SHIV ROY: You guys are
seriously not concerned

about this Dad stuff?
'Cause there's been more.

Sorry, I have to focus.

Studio overages,
Kalispitron: Hibernation,

225 mil sunk cost.

Estimating about three weeks
of reshoots,

which is like 25 mil,
plus CGI.

SHIV: Mm-hmm.

It's a fucking sleepy robot

how is that a quarter of a bill?

Mm-hmm. I mean, it's just--
You know, I'm just struck

by the number of pieces
that knife Dad and--

particularly his younger sons,

have been covering for him
for quite some time.

Hey, if someone's briefing
anything against Dad,

we'll fucking crucify them.
Okay?

- Ratfucker Sam, okay?
- Okay.

Rome, do you want to do
the Matsson dossier together

for angles, yeah?

- Yay. Let's do it.

I don't actually care.

Yeah, how's he doing?

I mean, he's doing good,

Oh, well, thanks. Uh.
So nice of you to offer that.

we're being acquired

by a high-caliber organization.

That's coming out...

I would say
there's a lot to admire.

Yeah, did you see? Their deputy
of comms is a ski jumper.

- Ex-Winter Olympian.
- Hmm. Yeah, I saw.

RAY KENNEDY: A ski jumper.

You can hardly stand up.
You're fucked.

KAROLINA: I mean, Fulbrights
coming out of their ass.

NASDAQ master race.

They're just a bunch
of really impressive,

very serious young people.

RAY: Did you see what happened
when they acquired

the video game publisher?

Less than ten percent retention.

They went through the place
like fire ants.

MARK ROSENSTOCK:
Incredibly meritocratic.

Insular, weird,
brutal motherfuckers.

And we're dead.

Hey, come on, guys, listen.

Sure, they're young
and they're fit,

but they're European,
they're soft.

Hammocked in their
social security safety nets.

Sick on vacation mania
and free health care.

They may think they're Vikings,

Exposed to a pathogen
that goes by the name Logan Roy.

And they have no idea

Let's get into it. We, um...

We've come to say that,

But we don't, as yet, think
it reflects the full valuation

of the potential
of what you're purchasing.

LUKAS: Okay.

And your stock dropped
20 percent on Friday?

KENDALL:
And regained ten Monday.

Okay.

Logan was never going to be part
of the company going forward.

I mean, in a business sense,

his absence is not relevant.

I'm going to the checkout

willing to pay 144 last week,

- shareholders won't like you
looking opportunistic--
- Yeah, can I interrupt you

- right there?
- I'd rather you didn't,

- but you already did, so...
- LUKAS: Um...

(CLICKS TONGUE) I would like
to propose... an offer.

I want to buy
your entire operation.

For the price... of one...

single dollar.

- LUKAS: (LAUGHS) I'm kidding.
- That's really good.

That's funny.

- One single dollar. Ha ha.
- (LAUGHS) Sorry.

Sorry, man, your face was...
(LAUGHS, GASPS)

Um. (COUGHS) But I-- I--
I do want ATN though.

Well, no. ATN's off the table.
Dad carved it out.

LUKAS: Yeah, I-- I'm not sure
it makes sense,

- and I want it back in.
- ROMAN: Uh, why?

- LUKAS: Why?
- ROMAN: Why?

LUKAS: Uh, why?

Uh... (SIGHS)

I feel like I don't have
to say why, do I?

It's the original deal.

Like it's-- it--
We have the shape.

This can be fast.

You can get the sugar
that you came looking for.

The price is what?

Oh, I don't think
we're at price.

LUKAS: Like, 187 per share.

Fifty-fifty cash stock...

for the whole thing.

Are you gonna tell me
what you think?

- (SIGHS)
- Yeah, yeah, sure.

- Sure.
- LUKAS: All right, maybe you
guys haven't done this before,

but how it usually works
is I say something...

and then you say something.

'Cause if you don't say
anything, some things

- tend to get a bit congealed--
- Can I interrupt you?
And say fuck off.

- Yeah, thanks for the pro tip.
- (LAUGHS) Okay.

ROMAN: Yeah, we just weren't,
you know,

we weren't expecting that.

And, uh, I'm not sure
that that works.

- LUKAS: It works.
- (CHUCKLES) Okay.

Yeah, well, we're not sure
that it does work.

It works.

ROMAN: Mm.

Do-- Maybe you want to check in
with the boiled eggs out there?

KENDALL: Well, yeah,
this is a material change.

- We need to--
- LUKAS: Of course, of course.

All that. Hundred percent, um...

But do you like it?

Just between us.

Oh, you like it a little bit,
don't you? Right?

There's something there, huh?

You don't have to answer but...

maybe an indication.

A bit of bubbles?

I think we're just gonna take
a beat actually.

We're just gonna-- Yeah?

- We'll talk later.
- Yeah.

Okay?

ROMAN: (SIGHS) So fucking eager.

- We say? Yeah?

Hi. So the offer is 187,
but he wants ATN.

why don't you tuck
your boner away, Karl?

- FRANK: But he wants the deal?
- Yeah. He wants the deal.

ATN is an emotive issue

and he's being
a fucking asshole.

KARL: Oh, sure, sure, sure.

But excellent news, gents, huh?

- Excellent.

You effectively achieved a bump.

ROMAN: Yeah, we did amazing.

or is this a move

so that we ask to subtract,

we add PGN.

The Three Fuckateers. Hey.

Uh, so, I just got a bad rumor
in my ears.

- What is it?
- Uh, apparently,

ATN has an open line
to Jeryd Mencken's campaign team

and they're just dialed in
on editorial morning conference.

- Did you know that?
- Uh, I did not know that.

Rome, if this comes out,
this blows any credibility.

ROMAN: Ooh. Yep.

- That's not okay. Rome.
- ROMAN: Yeah.

Yeah, I don't know, fucking Cyd.
Cyd's in operational charge.

- It's a mutual back scratch.
- Rome, even Dad had a line.

Look, Shiv, we can-- We should--

We should get into that,
it's not okay,

but, uh...

But we do need to focus.

Big picture, we should discuss.

What do we think
on ATN folded back in?

- Uh, ATN back in?
- Yeah.

Fuck, uh, well, then, yeah.
Sure, fine, get rid of it.

It's a toxic asset.

Uh, it's also Dad's pride
and joy, he died trying to keep?

Yeah, well, let's just keep
one of his old sweaters.

Less racist.

You know, there's leverage
in not looking too thirsty.

He needs to know
that if there's no deal,

we're good, we survive, thrive.

But do we? Like, can we?

Well, Ken and I have been
doing a pretty good job.

SHIV: (CHUCKLES)
In the last 24 hours?

Price has stabilized,
markets seem to like us.

Yeah, the markets like
that you're selling to Matsson.

Mm-hmm. Well,
Dad wanted to keep ATN.

Uh, yeah, but he also wanted
to poison Brezhnev

and-- and hang Mandela.

- It doesn't mean
he's always right.
- ROMAN: Mm...

I think that overall,
he wanted the deal, so...

Well, we don't know.

We-- we can't navigate
by Dad maps.

- He's not here.
- I know he's not here.

I have a giant hole in my heart
and a 24-hour migraine and...

I'm just saying,
I don't think we know if--

Would he have done the deal?
Would he not have done the deal?

We don't-- We don't know.

You know what? Just--
Let's get it done.

I don't really--
I don't-- Whatever.

Just get the deal done.

this very delicately.

Laid before you is a chessboard,

So what have you got?

Matsson, pretty cold.

- Right.
- When he's fucking randos,

he does
noise-cancelling headphones.

- Right.
- Podcasts.

He just lies back, cans on,
watches 'em slide the beanpole.

Okay. Well, I'm not sure

how I'm gonna use that
to my advantage.

Um, and what about in terms
of the cage fighting?

Yeah, um, so some say Ebba,
some say Oskar

in terms of who's keeping
the kill list.

Oh, so there is a kill list?

Oh, yeah,
I have it on good authority.

- There's a kill list. Yeah.
- Right.

Like, eight, nine names.
It's evolving.

No ATN.

- Thanks, bro.

It's-- It's fine,
but the graph is horrible.

Well, look. We're just...

Honestly, we're concerned...

about the fit,
about your vision.

And with half our value
coming in stock, 50-50 split,

we stand to lose a lot
of value if you... screw it up.

because of some things
that we said, uh,

when things were nice
and intense, you know,

as sort of a nasty,
uh, friendly joke about--

about what I shouldn't do, um...

I sent her some of my blood.

apparently not a joke.

Uh, this is...

Uh, well, who is this?

It's Ebba.

Yeah. It's a bit--
It-- it's a bit, uh...

- A com-- complex situation.
- Hmm.

I'll-- I'll just...

deny it, right?

I'll call bullshit

of your blood.

Uh...

but whatever
they're telling you,

you gotta 10x it.

Point one...

Might be hard for you, but...

stop sending people your blood.

Uh, and then, you know,

it's a negotiating tactic,
you stupid cunt.

- LUKAS: All right. Okay.
- It is.

You piece of shit!

LUKAS: Did--
You heard that, right?

(HELICOPTER BLADES WHIRRING)

KENDALL: It wasn't the plan,
but maybe it plays.

ROMAN: Mm-hmm. You know,
if a deal collapses in the woods

and no one hears it,
is it an SEC violation?

♪ (MUSIC FADES) ♪

RAY: All right, I feel
like he looks solemn.

- Maybe danger, maybe no deal?
- No, no. Ken's unreadable.

It's Roman you wanna eyeball.

I think they got it
over the line.

- (CELL PHONE RINGING)
- You?

Oh. You.

How are you?

Thanks for ca-- Oh.

Hey, it's Mattson.

- Mattson.
- Mattson.

- FRANK: Yeah. Oh, oh.
- Yeah?

FRANK: Uh, okay.

Well, uh, thank you.

Uh, do-- I would be glad
to pass that message along.

Would you like to speak
to one of them yourself?

They're both...

Nope.

Revised offer.

- One-ninety-two.
- KARL: Wow...

(KENDALL SCOFFS)

Five-dollar bump, okay!

GERRI: Wow,
he really wanted ATN.

FRANK: Hey, it's
a home run, boys.

Hail the conquering heroes.

GERRI:
Your dad would be really proud.

- KENDALL: Wow. One-ninety-two?
- ROMAN: You're welcome.

- Amazing.
- KARL: Yeah, very good.

- Excellent.
- Yeah.

KENDALL: Let's run the numbers
and take it to the board.

- Right.
- KENDALL: Shall we?

Good, good. Yeah, terrific. Wow.

KENDALL: Okay.

KARL: One-ninety-two.
It's undeniable.

One-ninety-two.

- (EXCITED CHATTER)
- KARL: We came, we saw,
we pillaged.

We raided the Vikings.

- Yes!
- Are you kidding me?

- One-ninety-two.
- Great job, guys.

- ROMAN: Thanks.
- Thanks, Jess.

Hey.

So there's, uh,
apparently a deal.

- TOM: Deal?
- Yeah, Matsson takes ATN,

the whole caboodle.

- Okay.
- SHIV: Mm-hmm.

Oh, come on, Tom,
you can be happy.

It's, you know,
it's The Great Escape.

Well, we'll see.

- Mm-hmm.
- TOM: We'll see. Yeah.

Yeah, we're looking
at some moves at ATN.

I'm not happy, so.

Oh. Okay.

- You're really gonna do this?
- SHIV: Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Cyd's getting too close
to Mencken.

Yeah, she's really just...

She's just a little bit
power-crazed post-Dad,

so she's gotta go.

Oh. You think?

Mm-hmm. Yeah,
you wanna let her know?

- Sure. Uh, sure. Yeah.
- Oh.

Don't get an erection, Tom.
It's weird.

You wanna get dinner
when we get back?

- Uh... Well, I don't know.
- (CELL PHONE RINGING)

Hang on. Important call.

Hey.

LUKAS: Are you
with your brothers?

SHIV: Mm-hmm.

Could you send me a photo
of their faces?

(CHUCKLES) Yeah, sure.

- HUGO: Congrats,
congrats, congrats.
- (GLASSES CLINKING)

HUGO: What-- what--
what's going on there?

- GERRI: I don't know. It's--
- HUGO: What is that? Is that--
Is that the kill list?

- It is, isn't it?
- KAROLINA: Wait.

GERRI: It's just, uh,
Jess managed

- to get a hold of something.
- Yeah, yes, it is.

- (KAROLINA WHISPERING)
- Um, uh, early draft.

GoJo finance list
of potential severance costs.

It's highly provisional.

It's-- it's caveated,
subject to change.

It would just
be an interpretation.

Come on, Gerri.
Don't leave us hanging.

Who's on it?

GERRI: Okay, if you insist.

In seemingly
no particular order,

um, just, uh,
potentially surplus

to requirements are...

- Ray.
- God fucking damn it.

- GERRI: Mark.
- Shit.

- GERRI: Hugo.
- That slalom motherfucker!

Frank.

Naturally.
It's just speculation.

GERRI: Karl.

Let the good times roll.

Wait, wait. What about Karolina?

- Um...
- Okay.

She's not on the list,
so retained.

- Retained. Okay.
- FRANK: And you?

- HUGO: Congratulations.
- KAROLINA: Thank you.

Uh, also not on the list.

Tom? What about Tom?
Tom must be on the list.

- GERRI: Mm.
- Oh, my God.

- GERRI: I don't see him.
- HUGO: Great fucking trip.

Highly fucking productive.

So much for being raised
by wolves.

SHIV: Congratulations, you guys.

Nothing to it. Right?

- One-ninety-two.
- SHIV: We did it.
