History

Season 1

Shiv leaves to meet with Gil. His campaign advisor and Shiv's ex-boyfriend, Nate Sofrelli, has been trying to convince Shiv to work alongside him and Eavis. Shiv considers the idea.

Several times during her pre-wedding party, Shiv speaks with Gil. At one point, Kendall and Roman come over and Roman attempts to create conflict, but no one takes the bait. Logan has a quick, heated exchange with his daughter, and before going to bed, finds himself on the staircase beside Gil. The two men have an exchange of words before they separate.

Season 2

Gil receives promising polling numbers for his presidential campaign and believes that he will win the election. He tells Shiv that once he is elected, he plans on appointing her to Chief of Staff. This leaves both her and Nate in shock. Later that morning, Shiv jokes about Gil using sanitizer after shaking someone's hand, which Gil doesn't appreciate, and after an exchange, fires Shiv. Shiv, however, claims that she quit.

Logan reading a statement to Congress

During the trial regarding Waystar's cruise-line, Tom is confronted by an aggressive Gil, who persistently questions him about Lester’s nickname "Moe". When asked about missing documents and Greg Hirsch, Tom panics and claims he does not know who Greg is. This leaves the boardroom, as well as Greg who will later testify, in a state of distress. Shiv, alone, tries to make a deal with Gil and Nate, but Gil is uninterested.

Greg is called to testify before Congress and fumbles his way through the testimony, seemingly nervous in front of Gil.

Trivia

• Eric Bogosian shared that Sen. Bernie Sanders was the inspiration behind Eavis.
