Macfadyen feels that Tom is less damaged than Shiv, simply because she’s a child who has suffered under Logan Roy. He spends a lot of the time being diplomatic and politick and swallowing his tongue and letting her win and letting her have the last word, and maybe he doesn’t this time.” I remember in the scene feeling the terrible rage at the injustice of it. But Macfadyen tells journalist and host Kara Swisher, “Nothing like this. So, something breaks.”Ĭreator Jesse Armstrong and the writers have brought Macfadyen and Snook several meaty scenes to chew on as scene partners in this fourth and final season of the Emmy-winning saga. “He thought maybe they were in a good place and he realizes she spent the whole party, when they were supposed to be throwing it together, sort of telling everybody he was heading for the chop. “It’s just the fucking injustice that he feels,” explains Macfadyen of what caused Tom to explode. The episode ended with each of them sleeping alone in their shared apartment, with an expression that left much to be desired as a sleepless Tom stared at the ceiling.

They can’t hear it exactly, but they can see we’re having a screaming match. “It was deliciously set because we’re on the balcony of our apartment and everybody is inside looking at us in this pre-Election party. The episode began with Tom complaining about being so tired from their late-night sexcapades (with explicit text messages to prove it) and ended with the pair having a knock-down, drag-out fight outside of their Manhattan apartment for their crowd of elite media guests inside to witness. … And it kind of does bring them together and make him the right man for her, in a way.” But this week, the Shiv-Tom whiplash continued and ended on a new low. There’s something pure, but it’s messed up. “Tailgate Party” followed an episode that had suggested the pair were pausing their divorce and rekindling - director Lorene Scafaria told The Hollywood Reporter last week of their honest conversation in “Living+”: “Their love is messed up.
