A wedding episode of “Succession” wouldn’t be complete without a jaw-dropping plot twist that drastically alters the trajectory of the hit HBO drama — and Sunday night’s installment did not disappoint.
The third episode of Season 4, “Connor’s Wedding,” finally pulled the trigger on a major event the series has long foreshadowed: the death of Waystar chairman and media-family patriarch Logan Roy (Brian Cox).
During the episode, Logan decides to skip his eldest son’s nuptials and board a flight to Sweden in an effort to secure a deal with tech mogul Lukas Matsson (Alexander Skarsgard). On the plane, the business executive collapses and shares one last phone call with his younger children — Kendall (Jeremy Strong), Roman (Kieran Culkin) and Shiv (Sarah Snook) — as the flight staff tries to revive him. By the time the jet lands, Logan is dead.
