I thought one of the best scenes of this entire show was when they developed Paiges pictures and looked over them with her. The music helped too.

Paige has officially turned to the spy side as of this episode. That's a huge deal.

Them officially getting married in the same episode that they find out that their assignment with the two grain people is getting extended has implications too. Elizabeth is going to fall for her guy big time.

I do understand somewhat why you'd feel the way you do but they're definitely laying some groundwork now that's really going to pay off over the last season and a half.

Yes, but at the expense of an entire season? I mean dont get me wrong, I still plan on watching....but it just seems like after every episode I've been saying to myself.." ok, nothing really happened..."

That scene was great. So savage.

But I do agree that this season has been pretty slow. Still good, just not peak Americans. It seems to be setting up the final season more than anything else. Two other FX shows, Justified and The Shield, were similar in that their penultimate season was mostly used to set up the final season. And both those shows knocked the final season out the park. I imagine The Americans will as well.

I was liking the scene and the music went great with it, plus it seemed familiar. Took a second to realize it was Bauhaus.

I have to say though there's been a couple too many "set up" episodes this season but I still love the show and the acting and writing are so damn good.
