Where are the Phillips going to go to hide? KGB will move heaven and earth to find them. There ONLY hope to stay alive is to go to the FBI. No, Oleg wanted that message to get passed along.

Him telling Oleg he didn’t care if Gorbachev was ousted had to be one of the dumbest things he could say. First- it’s bad news for the US. It just is. That shouldn’t be rocket science to him. How sad for Claudia- Claudia really thinks Philip and the kids are meaningless things to have left. Note her emphasis on American kids. You have to remember that this was 1987. Many in the West still did not know what to make of Gorbachev. Some thought he was a wolf in sheep's clothing. Good point about Claudia's obvious contempt for anything American, especially P and E's American kids. 17 Link to comment

Auntie Anxiety May 24, 2018 Share May 24, 2018 Stan and Alderholt are going to look like schmucks when everyone hears that the spies were Stan's next door neighbor and Alderholt just spent Thanksgiving with them. Hilarity ensues. Quote Pastor Dollar Biil's new wig, When I saw Kelly AuCoin's name in the beginning, I thought, huh, I wonder what role Dollar Bill from Billions had in this show. I was shocked when I saw Pastor Groovy Hair. He looks nothing like Dollar Bill. I had no idea. 11 Link to comment
renatae May 24, 2018 Share May 24, 2018 (edited) Wow! One of the best episodes ever! Elizabeth got a clue about her blind loyalty and grew a conscience, it seems. I was surprised Claudia didn't immediately sic some of her faction on Elizabeth, as well as that Elizabeth seemed aware this would not be a problem, which I find a bit surprising if not confusing. Here's my Pollyanna wish for the outcome. If they get caught, I hope the family defects to the U. S. and receives protection. There is probably a snowflake's chance in hell that Elizabeth would go for this, but maybe she's so disillusioned by Claudia's lies she will go for it, finally realizing her family is more important than her misconceptions about what her country stands for. Of course I hope Oleg gets free and goes home but I can't think of any reason that would happen except the powers that be deciding keeping Gorbachev in power is a worthy goal and believing Oleg was not attempting to be a threat to security. For whatever reason, Gorbachev's desire for peace is not currently apparent to Stan and is not even on his radar. Edited May 24, 2018 by renatae 8 Link to comment

Also, when Granny was eating her bread with her stew (or whatever it was), I flashed back to the film, "The Falcon and the Snowman" (I hope that is the correct title).

Oleg would only risk EVERYTHING for something big and important to him. And Stan couldn’t get it. Stan came across as clueless as he was on day 1.

Marianna May 24, 2018 Share May 24, 2018 1. I hope they leave Henry behind (not that I believe they will all get away, but in terms of their plans). I know they have their escape plan all figured out, and Elizabeth isn’t even thinking about it, but Philip has had time to think about this. I know they’d have to do it without contacting him, but sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind. Of course as the only true innocent in the show, I think he’s going to end up dead. I rather thought Oleg, as the only true tragic figure, would end up dead too, but indefinite prison is not that different. 2. I know Tatiana is a true believer and all that, but is she actually trained to murder people herself? It seems odd that she’s the one they chose to do it. Why not Claudia? 3. I’m glad they brought Pastor Tim back, if only because I can’t stop thinking about how, in his journal, he wrote that Philip and Elizabeth “ruined Paige”. They sure did. I think she’s going to prison for a very long time. And she deserves it. 6 Link to comment

There was so much to like in Liz and Paige confrontation, so it is a shame that Paige's writing this season didn't lead to that scene more organically. She's been watching people get murdered right under her nose, and what finally moves the needle for her is the knowledge that mom has sex with people to get information? I'm sorry, but the scene where Liz kills her fellow KGB agent was just poorly shot. I know D.C. had a lot of murders then, but, no, people would not get gunned down in broad daylight, and elicit so little reaction.

Agreed. They had the time so none of this would feel rushed but chose instead to devote it to pointless Paige. All that time after her blankly staring into space after sleeping w/ the intern was precious time wasted. She only ever seems to grow a brain when it's convenient for the plot and is always twice as annoying when indignant because she is naively indignant. She was indignant in demanding her parents' truth and naive in thinking she could handle it (and even do it better than her dad after landing some sucker punches). And tonight she had an awfully convenient, but woefully naive epiphany about the nature of her mother's work, which she was set to devote her life to the other week. She was a waste of Elizabeth's and Claudia's time and my time. 16 Link to comment

BingeyKohan May 24, 2018 Share May 24, 2018 Cougar on the prowl in the DC area! Totally agree it was a little cheap to have Paige hear about a seductive older woman at a frat party and think ‘Gawd my mom is so embarrassing.’ (Also, isn’t that the plot of the new Melissa McCarthy movie?) I thought since we’re in Weisberg/Fields hands the rest of the run this episode would be a bit more...masterful...but still a lot to like. Did we hear a whisper of Elizabeth’s Russian accent in her vein-popping at Paige? I wanted just a hint more of that cracked veneer. I liked how that sequence began with her washing off her last mask, basically.
