The Very Best Lines From Season 4, Episode 7 of ‘Succession’

It’s party time, people—on Succession, anyway, where Shiv and Tom hosted a little event to tell the world that they’re back (and oh, are they back). Some other things happened, too, but this is a committed spoiler-free space, so let’s just get into ranking the best lines of the night, yeah? (And much credit to the writers. WGA strong!)

“I don’t like you. I don’t even care about you”

Ineffectual as she is, Shiv can really twist the knife, can’t she?

“*Doo, doo, doo, doo…*final day of employment…”

It is so deeply digital-media-coded to be fired by Cousin Greg on Zoom.

“Mr. Nephew”

I hate Lukas, but this is the best way anyone’s ever referred to Greg.

“That’s kinda homophobic, man”

This Kendall line is in conversation with Sydney Sweeney saying “Well, it comes off as homophobic” on The White Lotus.

“I want money. Eye-watering sums”

Same, Gerri.

“I guess he has expressed distaste in the past for my particular flavor…of…me”

Ew, but still a top-tier Greg line.

“I’ll help the libtards, you go hit the Nazis”

Brothers reaching across the aisle!

“I don’t think I want to go anywhere that doesn’t have nukes”

Spoken like a true future president, Connor.

“Len giveth and Len taketh away”

Kendall really shines when he’s speechifying at a high-profile election party.

“I love you, but you kill me and I kill you”

Never has there been a better encapsulation of the Tom/Shiv dynamic.

“I’m pre-tired”

What an elegant, Tom Wambsgans-ian way to say you’re wiped out from too much sex with your hot, estranged wife.

“Not that I don’t love heaving you around like a great lump of pine and making you shine, but what have you done for me lately?”

Get ’em again, Siobhan.
