The episode begins with Sandi (Hope Davis) arriving to meet with Logan and the family, as Roman (Kieran Culkin) says they are acquiring GoJo.
Stewy and Sandi both think they’re being ‘ambushed’ but Logan says they are ‘bleeding out’ with ad money.
Sandi says it is bigger than anything they have ever contemplated and it will restructure the company.
Logan says that if they really don’t like it, they can kill it, but Stewy said they didn’t say that.
Season 2 ended with the Roy family heading into a proxy battle after Logan failed to secure funding to take the company private.
Logan decided to announce a clean-up with Kendall taking the fall for the massive sexual abuse scandal that happened on the family’s cruise lines.
Kendall threw everyone a major curveball, though, revealing at the press conference that his father knew everything and orchestrated the millions of dollars in payouts to the victims to keep everything quiet.
