From the very start of the Succession, viewers were made aware that Roman is attracted to Gerri, at least to a certain extent, and their relationship is certainly of the most bizarre angles on TV right now. While both characters never got intimate, there sure is a ton of s*xual energy between them.

In the latest episode, Gerri threatened to sue Roman if her position in Waystar Royco ever came under jeopardy. Roman had sent countless inappropriate images to her and she has enough evidence of harassment to ruin Logan's son.

Watching Gerri threaten Roman was celebrated by fans on Twitter. They claimed that he had it coming, adding that she is going to be the reason for his downfall.


Succession Season 4 Episode 7: Netizens are on board with Gerri threatening to destroy Roman's life

Roman's weird kinks have always managed to make fans of the show laugh.

In a previous episode of the show, Roman accidentally sent an inappropriate picture intended for Gerri to his father Logan. Although Logan gave his son a piece of his mind, the latter did not stop. Gerri, for her part, did not seem to mind. Until the latest episode.

In the episode, she bluntly told Roman that she was going to sue him if her job was in danger, leaving the latter visibly shaken.

Fans absolutely loved to see a scared Roman and are overjoyed that Gerri snapped. They are celebrating the fact that she finally took a stand and are eager to see the day she sues Roman, after which, saving him will most probably become an impossibility.
