Succession Actor Recreates Cassie's Bathroom Meltdown From Euphoria
HBO shows collide in a hilarious new video where Succession patriarch Brian Cox performs Cassie's viral bathroom scene from Euphoria.

Cassie commits herself fully to her twisted relationship with Nate, which results in a highly meme-able blowout in the bathroom in episode 3. Cassie imagines herself tearfully (and loudly) confessing her love for Nate to Maddy and their friends, only for it to turn out that she said nothing at all.
