I love that she is actually thinking about it when the phone call comes in. Also love that the only upside Gerri can see to a romantic relationship with Roman would be that “no one would know” which he ruins by revealing his obsession with her to Logan
Honestly I can see where you're coming from but Roman's "intentions" with Gerri are actually weirdly pure. Yes he wants to fuck her, but there's a real emotional connection there and he never once tries to coerce her into doing anything with him.
@@susiem.2068 If that's true, then what Roman is doing isn't sexual harassment. I'm sorry, but human relationships are not simple, and Gerri just did invite this. She did. Objectively, yes, it is sexual and it is harassment. But the phrase "sexual harassment" is charged with all kinds of associations that are not present here. Saying that Gerri encouraged Roman in season 2 does not mean that his behavior is appropriate. But Gerri invited Roman into her bathroom so that he could masturbate while she played on his sexual excitement at being insulted. This was after this had already happened over the phone- she encouraged this dynamic so that she could maintain her connections within the family and build her own personal power within the company through that connection. She didn't tell Roman to stop because she was feeling uncomfortable. She told him to stop because it was threatening her position in the company and no longer served her interests. "But is it in my interests?" They both have behaved like disgusting pigs. But Gerri is not the employee being harassed and silenced by a boss using the levers of power to terrify women who can't speak out. That happens. It's evil. It's not what is going on here. At the end of season 3, Roman is the one in the cold. Gerri is better established in the company, she commands universal respect, and she's Roman's superior. She invited Roman's behavior by exploiting his skeevy and twisted sexual inclinations to create a relationship which she could use to build her position at the company, and then tried to cut it off when it didn't serve her interests. Gerri plays the game brilliantly- she's an effective Machievellian. But let's not pretend that she's some kind of poor girl being exploited by a powerful man.
He realizes that she wouldn't risk it. He's still a board member and heir to the business she's running TEMPORARILY. Must be nice living in that little box.
oh god, this is amazing yet why do I feel like I've seen this scene before or at least read it somewhere, how odd. I love em together ahhh and that phone call ugh, broke the sexual tension lol
@@Person1865 yeah exactly he'd probably chicken out, he teases her because she knows she will ignore him but if she reciprocated he'd shit himself lol.
The whole Gerri/Roman "relationship" is so ridiculously inappropriate, they both encourage it because it's safe. They know nothing will come of it and revel in the hilarious banter.
What's up with people in this comments section lol, this show is not for you, go watch Heartstopper or some stuff like that. Kieran Culkin and JSC literally ship this too.
I feel like I'm living on another planet here. This isn't cute and Roman isn't smitten or in love, he's a broken person who has developed a twisted and perverse obsession with Gerri as a proxy mother. There's nothing adorable about this. It's gross and sad.
She's had some major work done on her neck during the break between seasons 1 and 2. No opinion on it, just noticed after watching some season 2 Gerri/Roman scenes lol.
@gerrialert yes I figured it out I had to log out & sign back in then I was able to access episode 1 it would've hurt my heart if I had to start at episode 2 😅 thanks for responding
@@socrappyicoulddie Obviously I'm in the minority, but Roman seems pretty obviously written as a sexual pervert who has serious, deep-seated issues arising out of emotional wounds he acquired in early childhood. I might change my mind if the writers meant it otherwise, though- could you link me to something they've said?
Well, I'll attempt an answer to your question. Essentially, as I see it, the first thing we can acknowledge is that none of the relationships on this show are healthy or normal. Bearing that in mind, the dynamic between Roman and Gerri is certainly not one any of us normal folks would want in our relationships, however, there are a lot of moments throughout the series between them that are tender and heartwarming: his defending her in the S2 finale when Logan wanted to sacrifice Gerri; Gerri going to see Roman in "Hunting" the morning after boar on the floor. There are certainly more, but it's moments like that that tie the whole dynamic together. Also, the chemistry between the two actors is such that they sort of impose their real life dynamic onto Gerri and Roman's relationship, so a lot of what viewers are reacting to is the natural chemistry between J. Smith-Cameron and Kieran Culkin. Just my thoughts. If you don't like them, that's fine too.
@@Charles-Pettibone just bc someone isn’t kinky doesn’t make them normal, just as (obvi not in roman’s case) someone who is kinky can be viewed as conventionally normal
@@gerrialert Early 50s? No way. Early 60s definitely, my mom is in her early 50s and neither her or her friends look like Gerri. Gerri looks her age and it's fine🤷🏻♀️
She’s hot though. She’s got this thing. I bet she feels good about his obsession. Just doesnt want to Show it So she can use more power on him. What a b***ch.
slightly ashamed by how much i yell whenever there’s a scene with these two alone together
He is so in love… his look at her the whole episode… omg
their chemistry is lit🔥🔥
“I’d lay you badly but I’d lay you gladly”. 😂🤣😂

I stan tbh.
Wow; is Roman that unattractive?
Roman looking to smash for a change is a nice change of pace.
The way he looks at her 😍
Yesssss❤❤❤
This scene was WILD
That split second before the phone rang though..!
“Who’s climbing mount Olympus to become the new dr Zeus” fuck this show is funny
Love the delivery on the "avoiding...mess." She doesn't even buy her own bullshit.
absolutely LOVE her actress, so so much!!!
I kinda feel bad for Gerri. Can you image how many Romans she has met during all of her carreer?
I don't get this. Gerri definitely encouraged this in season 2.

Notice how Roman goes limp once he finds out Gerri is the one who holds the power?

Lol he'd probably go for it. XD
He'd jizz as soon as she said yes
He'd run.

"Technically raw but, you know, hungry"
Did Roman just admit to being a virgin?
Is that surprising given his scenes with Tabitha?
Something more I have in common with Roman lol
@@ieatsand9259 I always interpreted that as performance issues that crop up now and then for him, not a confirmation that he's never had sex.
@@BatmanHQYT he's had sex with Grace, once every six months
Nah he’s definitely NOT a virgin his Exgirlfriend before tabitaha said they only got it in 1-2x in 6 months..
