If you don't have time to watch 'Succession' this skit sums it up with M&M's

Everyone wants to be Daddy's #1 Candy Baby.

If you're Very Online, you've either watched Succession or you have a grasp of the show's plot based on everyone else tweeting about Succession.

But if you really want to understand the show without spending approximately 24 hours watching rich people be horny, Twitter user Ben Cahn summed it up. Swapping M&M's for an obscene fortune, Cahn recreated the series with impressions of each character.

He nails patriarch Logan Roy's slurred "Fuck off!" when various members of the Roy family ask for his M&M's. From Kendall's nervous blinking to Shiv and Tom's questionable relationship to Roman's all around greasiness, Cahn's one man show will reignite your Succession crushes.

Cahn, a stock broker by day, told Rolling Stone that he based the sketch around everyone in the family wanting "something from Logan."

"So I decided to break it down in the most childish way possible, because they behave like children sometimes," he said, noting the Roy children's tendency to grovel for their father's approval and money. "And what's more childish than wanting candy from your dad?"

With a variety of wigs and costumes, Cahn reenacted all the characters we love to hate. In response to Tom's heads-up that Logan just opened another bag of M&M's, Cahn makes Shiv's signature dissatisfied squint-pout. When Roman approaches Logan for M&M's, hunched and ready for debauchery, Logan tells him to fuck off as well. Cahn even impersonates Marcia, Logan's quiet but definitely dangerous wife, with a vaguely threatening anecdote about death in impeccable French accent.

Cahn imitating cousin Greg's freakish height is the icing the on the cake.

The sketch wraps with Logan forcing Kendall to put on a hat emblazoned with "Daddy's #1 Candy Baby" — a sign that no matter how hard he tries, his son will never be in charge of the family company.

And that he'll always be Logan's #1 Candy Baby.
