Shiv and Tom’s marriage was on the brink from the beginning, but their relationship plunged into the darkest depths after Tom’s death (Matthew McFadden) Betrayed Shiv (Sarah Snook) and sided with Logan (Brian Cox) in Inheritance Season 3 finale. In the Season 4 premiere, Shiv and Tom barely speak in the aftermath of their showdown in Italy.
They are forced to face each other when Shiv returns home to get her belongings. She confronts Tom about his fling with Greg and his date with a model. Tom states that during this separation he agreed that he could “test the waters”.
Tom figured they would eventually have an honest discussion about what happened and their future. You say you don’t want to bring up
Tom tries to keep talking to Shiv, but she doesn’t have it. “I don’t think it’s good for me to hear that. Maybe it’s time for you and me to move on,” Shiv admitted, hinting that she wanted a divorce. She doesn’t want to get to the heart of all the problems in her marriage.
This is where Shiv is stunted, although Tom is willing to confront his feelings and all the thorns of their problems. She thinks it’s time to say, “Hold her head high and good luck.” But her eyes betray her. She is in tears, but she doesn’t want Tom to see it. She didn’t like showing her emotions to Tom or anyone else.
Tom told Shiv that he could see if he could make love to her, but she declined the offer. She asks if he stays or goes. Tom is waiting for her reply. Shiv says she’s tired and will stay the night, but she says she can stay with Tom as well.
“So this is it, right?” says Tom. Because of all the mistakes in their marriage, Tom is saddened that this seems like the end. I don’t understand.
“I tried,” Shiv says tearfully. Tom grabs her hand. “Yeah, I tried,” he replies. Though she never took Tom’s feelings seriously and has consistently taken him for granted, Shiv is adamant that her father won the overwhelming majority to advance GoJo’s deal. I can’t get over Tom keeping Logan a secret about his plans with Kendall and Roman to stop him.
Shiv and Tom’s divorce (if it does) will have lasting repercussions. Early in the episode, after Nan expresses her concern that Tom is one of Logan’s closest allies at the moment, Shiv is quick to tell Num Pierce that she is divorcing Tom. I was.
Tom will definitely be worried about how his divorce will affect his relationship with Logan. It never happened… Shiv is still Logan’s daughter, after all. Logan, realizing that Tom is no longer useful, may be able to throw him out. Except for Greg, of course.
