On Succession, Those Roy Grandkids Are Probably Not All Right - /Film

slashfilm.com

The finale gives little insight into whether Kendall would get the upper hand in his declared custody dispute for his two children against his ex-wife Rava (Natalie Gold). Though naturally, having been ejected for good from his prospective CEO throne, Kendall wouldn't be in high spirits during this dispute. And if Roman is telling the truth about Logan's speculation, the patriarch discounted Iverson (Quentin Morales) and Sophie (Swayam Bhatia) as part of the true Roy "bloodline." Is Iverson a product of Rava having an affair?

But more importantly, will Iverson be okay eventually? Poor boy didn't have breathing space under his grandfather, who ruled his implied neurodivergence as a weakness. Firstly, Iverson's Thanksgiving dinner breakdown provoked his grandpa's ire. Later, a word game of "I Went to the Market" went awry and his grandpa clocked him with a cranberry can. A lot can also be read into the season 3 dinner when his grandpa used him as his mozzarella taste-tester, despite Iverson's dislike of cheese. Here, Logan asserted his dominance over Kendall, as if to remind the latter that he'll always be on his leash, while snidely indicating that Iverson will inherit this subservience. This kid will keep processing his own thoughts about his grandpa.

It's hard not to picture Kendall dreaming that Iverson could have budded into the next Waystar CEO one day. Even without a CEO inheritance, Iverson has two paths: grow into a ruthless and insensitive businessperson like his father or live his life with compassion. Hopefully, he'll invest in the latter.
