Before the 90-minute series end, author Jesse Armstrong's Emmy-winning drama had to answer a big question: 

 who will replace Logan Roy (Brian Cox) as the head of Waystar Royco?

 who will replace Logan Roy (Brian Cox) as the head of Waystar Royco?

As the end approached, there were many possible answers. 

Would Kendall (Jeremy Strong), whose middle name is "killer," turn into the person his father always told him he wouldn't? 

Would Shiv (Sarah Snook) be the key to a good GoJo deal with Lukas Matsson (Alexander Skarsgrd), and where would Tom (Matthew Macfadyen) fit into that?

How about Roman (Kieran Culkin), who was so sad about his father's death that he had to walk out into a sea of political unrest (thanks, Jeryd Mencken!) to feel something other than pure grief? 

Could this story end like Game of Thrones, with an odd person on the Iron Throne, like Greg (Nicholas Braun), as one of the most popular theories among Succession fans suggests?

Which monsters from the closet (or, more accurately, from Logan's "cat food Ozymandias" tomb) would dance out for one last scare?
