It’s the ultimate clash of the titans. We're reacting to Succession Season 2, Episode 5: “Tern Haven.” The Roys travel to the Pierce family estate to finalize the acquisition of PGM, but they quickly realize that “old money” plays by a completely different set of rules.
To win over the intellectual and liberal Pierces, Logan orders his family to play specific roles—but the facade doesn't last long. As the weekend unfolds, we see Kendall bonding with his “mirror image” Naomi Pierce, Roman failing to prove he's ever read a book, and the dinner party from hell where a single, impulsive sentence from Shiv threatens to destroy everything.
Join us as we react to the "break bumper" cocktails, the awkward interaction between the Roy siblings and the Pierce cousins, Roman’s bizarre new "dynamic" with Gerri, and the deafening silence that follows Shiv’s massive dinner table outburst.
