It was one helluva Episode 4 of 'Succession' Season 3 on HBO. 'Lion in the Meadow' was a gripping affair that saw a perpetually confused Greg asked in the most Loganesque of ways to support him rather than Kendall (Jeremy Strong). The older Roy explains how Greg can use that leverage and he finally decides to take a management position at Waystar. Tom, at the other end, is still in his bitter relationship with Shiv (Sarah Snook) as he ponders about what appears to be an imminent time in prison.

At the other end, Josh Aaronson, an important stakeholder meets Kendall and Logan in person who tries to convince him that things are not so bad and this was a storm that could be weathered. Over the course of the episode, Logan is shown to be sick. And now, it's safe to speculate that this health issue will be a key issue moving forward.

Will Logan's health reunite the Roy children, albeit briefly?

It does look that way. If anything, the family, despite being dysfunctional has proved that they will be there for each other. It's ironic to imagine that these characters who're sharpening their knives thanks to the constant power struggle can actually sit in the same room, let alone forge a meaningful bond. However, Logan's health might be one of the reasons that may see the family come together to figure out a way to deal with the raids and the accusations.

It's partly impossible too, as that would mean Kendall reaching a compromise, which he most likely won't. Then there's that battle with Stewy Hosseini (Arian Moayed) that the Roy family will have to take care of, including Kendall. So does this mean a brief family reunion filled with bickering and mud-slinging on the cards? Only time will tell.

Episode 5, titled 'Retired Janitors Of Idaho', written by Tony Roche and Susan Soon and helmed by Kevin Bray airs Sunday, November 14 at 9 pm ET on HBO.
