SPOILER ALERT: This recap contains spoilers for Season 4, Episode 7 of “Succession,” now streaming on HBO Max. The election looms over “Succession,” which means not only will there…

The election looms over “Succession,” which means not only will there be a new president of the United States but, more importantly? Nate is back.Ashley Zukerman

Nate, who had an affair with Shiv in Season 1, when the pair worked on Gil Eavis’ presidential campaign, shows up to the party with a fair amount of leverage. His new candidate, the Democrat Daniel Jimenez, is ahead in the polls, and Kendall has made him a covert offer: If Nate helps prevent the GoJo deal based on regulatory concerns, Kendall will “make primetime safe” for Jimenez, meaning Waystar’s right-wing news network ATN will treat the potential president nicely.

The scenes with you and Matthew Macfadyen are so delightfully awkward. What was it like developing that chemistry with him? There’s this backstory between Nate and Kendall. Early in Season 1, Shiv referred to Nate as having “run around in Shanghai” with Kendall, which gave us this pretty incredible backstory knowing Kendall’s history of drugs. I always assumed that we had a lot of big experiences together, and we were there for each other, and I was there for him and heard about his struggle with his family. So there’s knowledge and familiarity there.

It might become clear to Nate as he moves around the party that there is a schism between the Roy siblings, even if Kendall and Roman aren’t yet aware of it. Does Nate still have feelings for Shiv, and could that sway his loyalties? It’s definitely made clear that for Waystar, it doesn’t even matter who wins the election as long as they have a plug. As long as they pick the right horse, they couldn’t care less.If Nate were managing the presidential campaign of Connor Roy , what strategy would he take to win the election?
