The guy who would have been running things for the queen was pushed out by Chuck’s people a while back. Probably why this is such a cluster. But I’m sure Chuck’s minions are very happy to have him get the face time. I’ll bet they are pleased about the dad self-destructing since it gave Chuck this opportunity.
Pushed out? He would have to be so old that he is either drooling or taking a power dirt nap at his age now.
