Yeah the Conner Logan relationship reveal was interesting. I wonder if Logan was more comfortable around Conner because he didn’t view him as a threat. Or if it was because he wasn’t constantly buzzing around him trying to win his approval. Or a combination of those things.
The last few big name lawyers he hired required a massive retainer before they agreed to represent him, so I don’t think that’s the issue. It’s probably more about no lawyer wanting to put their reputation on the line since he is notoriously difficult client, who often doesn’t follow the advice of legal counsel but then turns around and blames them when his case inevitably tanks.
That makes total sense. Like when you’re talking to a friendly salesman you always have to keep your guard up because you know he wants something from you. You can never fully relax like you do with friends. Meanwhile, he knew Conner didn’t want anything. I mean other than the occasionally asking him to fund a Broadway flop or an asinine presidential campaign. But that’s basically pocket change to a guy like Logan.
