Fans were really hoping Gerri and Roman would develop some sort of relationship after their verbal sexual tiffs last season. She calls their dynamic an apprenticeship.


Gerri needs family support and acknowledges Roman’s strengths and his weaknesses Roman has high hopes. Gerri and Roman powwow quickly about their alliance. Kendall assures Greg that he’s on the winning team and that he’s not going to “burn him.” Greg expresses reservations about the situation, hilariously noting that “I’m kind of too young to be in Congress so much.” Tom calls Greg with his usual Shakespearean vulgarity and intimidation tactics Greg snitches about Shiv visiting Kendall.
