Warning: DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVEN’T WATCHED EPISODE 4 OF SUCCESSION SEASON 4.
Ready?
Ok.
Welcome to our Succession Power Rankings! Each week of the show’s ten-episode final season, For The Win will chat about the latest episode to see how everyone in the Succession universe is doing. Let’s dig into it.
After last week’s episode of Succession became the highest-rated episode of any show ever on IMDB, this week’s episode was going to be critical.
During this episode, “Honeymoon States”, we learn the late Logan Roy left a note in a safe outlining his wishes for what should happen upon his death. While that includes funeral arrangements, it also potentially references who he wanted to take over for him as CEO.
We don’t know when the note was written, but we do know that Kendall’s name is included — though it was either underlined or struck through.

RELATED: Avoiding major Succession spoilers is simple: Watch it live. It’s appointment TV.
We also know that Karl and Frank were the first people to see the note and that they didn’t want the “little princess” to screw up their plans. Or did he say the little princes?
Who was Karl referring to? Was it Kerry, who was at least aware of some note? Other possibilities include Gerri, Marcia, Siobhan, Tom, Roman, or even Kendall.
Also at least somewhat noteworthy: Cousin Greg’s name is included as “an addendum of miscellaneous matters” but in pencil and with a question mark.
