Chapter 81: “Let that sink in”: Twitter, October 26–27, 2022

On October 26–27, 2022, Elon Musk completes his acquisition of Twitter and takes control of the company. He famously walks into Twitter headquarters carrying a sink, playing on the phrase 'let that sink in' as a joke about the deal's completion. Musk visits the coffee bar on the tenth floor, beginning his immediate inspection of the company he has now acquired. This marks the pivotal moment when Musk's ownership of Twitter transitions from pending to actual, setting the stage for the sweeping changes he will implement at the platform.
