Sarah Snook deserves all the Emmys for her deeply affecting, nuanced performance of an emotionally unavailable woman.
Now back to our embattled couple: In the penultimate scene of the premiere, Shiv shows up at their New York City home unannounced to pick up clothes. “I thought you took all your favorites,” an awoken Tom asks.
“I don’t want to be restricted to my favorites,” Shiv retorts, effectively snapping in half any olive branch her arrival might have suggested. She brutally plows ahead with collecting her things, while mocking Tom about possible dalliances.Tom then short-circuits Shiv’s tirade with a doleful ask: Does she want to “get into a full accounting of the pain in [their] marriage?” Because he can and will.
The moment is quieter and more intimate than the tense boardroom and opulent banquet scenes we’re used to seeing on this show. It lays bare the fact that there’s no way Shiv could even begin to consider a full accounting of the pain in her marriage, because that would require her to reckon with the pain that’s underpinned and consumed her entire life.The back-and-forth that ensues between the couple is the emotional equivalent of putting a bunch of repelling magnets in a small pouch.
Her emotional unavailability is palpable, and the episode draws a clear parallel to her father’s repression. In an earlier scene, Logan Roy couldn’t bring himself to express that he was upset his kids didn’t wish him a happy birthday, so instead, he takes his “best pal” Colin to a stuffy Upper East Side diner and declares he doesn’t think God exists.
