The awkward dinner was such great writing/acting with kgb, fbi, and a pastor

Sounds like a joke setup, speaking of which, I think I've watched too much shitty comedy, because my first thought was that Pastor Tim and Alice were going to spray their drinks everywhere when the inevitable, "Well, Stan, what do you do?" question came up. My second thought was that it has to help snap Pastor Tim and Alice out of their reverie; either they're going to turn the Russkies in (doubtful), which they should have done in the first place, or they're going to become more than secret keepers, which is plausible as they lean a little bit to the other side, e.g. Pastor Tim chaining himself to a fence to protest the gubmint.
