Succession: When Did Kendall Decide?
I've put some thought into when, exactly, Kendall decided he was going to turn on his father rather than take the rap for the cruises scandal.
My best guess is during his conversation with Logan. When he says "Maybe I deserve it", I think he is still at least seriously considering with cooperating with his father's plans. But when he kisses his father after Logan is adamant that Kendall doesn't deserve it - well, that kiss seems very Judas-y to me.
When Logan dismissed Andrew Dodds' death as "no real person involved" - I think that was the moment Ken decided to turn against his father (although he may have been thinking about it before). Kendall has a lot of different reactions to the fact the he committed vehicular manslaughter over the course of the show. This includes frequently being adamant it never happened. But he never said that Andrew's life lacked value.
