This post contains frank discussion of the Succession, Season 2 finale titled, “This Is Not for Tears.” If you’re not all caught up with the latest ups and downs of the Roy family, now is the time to leave.

On the latest episode of the Vanity Fair podcast Still Watching: Succession, actress Annabelle Dexter-Jones who plays Kendall Roy’s Season 2 love interest Naomi Pierce, took us inside the table read for the show’s twist-filled final installment. The season’s penultimate episode ended on a cliffhanger when Logan Roy ominously told his daughter, Shiv, that in order to placate his company’s board and see his way through the latest Waystar/Royco scandal, he would have to offer up a “blood sacrifice.” As series star Matthew Macfadyen told Vanity Fair, no one in the cast knew whose head would be on the chopping block. According to Dexter-Jones, however, as soon as the cast sat down together to read the final script, everyone was satisfied especially, of course, her main scene partner: Jeremy Strong.

Dexter-Jones thinks that Naomi would be proud of Kendall for making his big move. (And we’ll get into whether, ultimately, that was the healthy choice for Ken.) She also hopes she might return in Season 3 to play Lady Macbeth to this newly emboldened power player. But, most intriguingly, she tries to answer the question haunting Logan in the finale. Is Naomi really good for Kendall? Is he good for her? Can two addicts carve a path forward together? Tune in to find out what she has to say.

As the finale twist itself, many—including, mostly, me—called this one incorrectly. But as it turned out, the identity of the “blood sacrifice” wasn’t actually the big reveal of the finale. The final twist saw Kendall Roy shaking off the fog of guilt and shame he’s been operating under after the tragic accident that closed out season one and, in a funhouse mirror reflection of the season two opener, tossing his father directly under the bus. Look how far Ken’s come.
