Tom wanted election night to be perfect because he knew it would be the last time he’d have any power.
He wanted Greg ‘Gregging’ for him because he knew it would be the last time they could be together before he was useless to him.
He pushed Shiv away because he knew, even if she was telling the truth, their relationship and child are doomed.
He couldn’t go to the funeral because he’d have to face that all he’s ever wanted was power, and Shiv bearing his child, and for Greg to be independent, and how he’s getting exactly what he asked for in the most devastating way possible.
‘Normie’ Succession fans have said from the beginning that “Tom is fucked,” and they were right.
