![]() It’s fitting that we end the episode back in a closed room with Logan and Shiv talking strategy, much like how this season began. ![]() Two weeks in a row now, Logan has had someone he was smitten with leave him. Logan, obviously, tells Rhea to fuck off, and she’s gone. I mean, I know you’re lying, but I still find you very plausible and appealing.” I feel seen. Soon, Rhea is backing out of the CEO gig in front of Logan, and, man, Holly Hunter’s last line is a walk-off home run that sums up the entire show: “It’s kind of a superpower isn’t it? If you can lie to someone like that to their face. But Logan’s daughter, who has, uh, gone through quite the political evolution since she worked for Eavis, shows that she’s just as monstrous as the rest of her relatives she convinces the woman not to testify and to take a settlement. Rhea balks, and tries to get Shiv to back out, too. Their job is to try to convince the woman not to speak. Soon, Rhea and Shiv are shipped to a nearby school where Eavis’s star witness for the case, a woman who was witness to Lester’s (Mo, Mo-lester) worst doings, works. In D.C., Rhea walks into the meeting room as everyone is arguing after Tom gets exposed on the stand by Senator Gil Eavis. ![]() Rhea set up Shiv, but she didn’t expect Logan to set her up. She’s defensive when she walks into the makeshift war room at Logan’s place and delivers a slew of complaints about how she feels like she got set up-“I feel like I’m your prophylactic, a rubber you’ve slipped on so I can protect you.” She knows that title be damned, she doesn’t have her hands on the steering wheel. Rhea is clearly still on the margins of Waystar’s inner circle, even though she’s set to be the next CEO. Gerri confirms and sets us off: “Buckle up folks, were gonna get an invite to the national latrine, see who wants to take a public dump.” Talk about a housewarming present for Waystar’s new landlord. As Scott is getting the heat from the Kardashians, Costa Rican fire dancers perform in the background and the real burns are saved for next week’s episode.While Logan tries to figure out how he can counterattack with messaging and money, Shiv delivers the message that prompts a primal yell from Logan: Senate hearings are coming. While this could’ve been a delightfully long and absurd scene, they could only come up with Chelsea Clinton and Chelsea Handler and I’m pretty sure those are the only famous Chelseas. Kim and Khloé toy with Scott by name dropping famous Chelseas in conversation. “My kids deserve to, like, have somebody with better, like, moral characteristics,” she says decisively before Scott arrives. Watch out, Scott!Īt dinner, Kourtney makes it clear to her family that, despite successful family trips with the kids, she has no plans of ever getting back together with Scott. After a season of serious trauma, this classic low-stakes Kardashian drama is firmly in their wheelhouse. Kim, Kourtney, and Khloé act appalled, but they smile as they discuss how pathetic they think Scott is. Unlike the anonymous woman from Dubai, this week’s paramour has a name: Chelsea. Super-spy Kim learns that Scott has flown a girl out to Costa Rica to stay with him. She doesn’t want to burden her family with the ongoing Paris drama, and, luckily, Scott will keep her well distracted with his own drama. She continues to make attempts to balance a very public life with her inability to trust anyone outside of her inner circle. Kim learns that suspects in her case have been arrested and she needs to fly to New York to testify. Kanye decides to sit out the family trip to Costa Rica. Kanye makes his first appearance since canceling his tour at a tea date with Kim and Kourtney and seems completely out of it, save for a dad joke about Pomeranians fitting in the palm of your hand. The robbery and Kanye’s breakdown still loom large over family activities. She rides camels and dune buggies with friends in the desert and we discover that she smells totally fine after freaking out on Scott, despite having no deodorant on (hygiene goals). She visits a children’s center, where she receives love and admiration all while wearing a charmingly trashy tucked-in t-shirt and ripped jeans combo. After shaming Scott and his hook-up, Kim continues with her self-care and rehabilitation in Dubai. Last night’s Keeping Up With the Kardashians gave us more opportunities for Kim to torment girl-crazy Scott.
