This is my only real question from the finale. What the hell is Paige doing? Is she just planning to live a normal life as Paige Jennings? She isn’t going to continue to work as a mini KGB agent and it’s not like she can just go back to college... So many questions there

I disagree.. Clearly Stan was Phillip’s only true “friend” in his whole life and by telling Stan he was trying to potentially prevent him from getting played twice. Just my thinking

So did Stan tell Henry...

1) your parents are russian spies

Or

2) your family is dead

I assume and feel #1 but am not positive.

I don’t think they ever were. Phillip and Elizabeth had discussed it to each other in the past and as trained spies they had a gut feeling she could be.

Phillip was trying to pull one last bro move before he left... Just poor timing on his part

If I recall, didn't he (Phillip) ask Gabriel or Claudia at some point? If I remember right, they told him she wouldn't, but you'd have to think Phillip would be aware they probably wouldn't tell him anyway.

Seriously where is she going to get money? You’d think her name would be flagged at some point the FBI would pick her up for questioning at least. Unless she knows how to contact the Center?

Option 1, Phillip told Stan to tell him the truth plus he’d find out anyway, the FBI was searching the house

Someone mentioned the music and it’s been great all series but Brothers in Arms by Dire Straits and With or Without You we’re perfect for this episode.

Nah, Stan's got to play dumb for the rest of his life. That's the deal he struck.

It reminds me of the ending of the Shield. On the one hand it’s outrageous a scumbag like Vic Mackey is free and has a decent job even. But from a dramatic arts perspective his ending is even worse for him that going to jail.

Here yeah they did awful things and I’d love to see them fry or rot in a US prison. Elizabeth especially should have been forced to watch the Wall fall and USSR cease to exist from jail. But now they realize everything they did was in vain. The country doesn’t give 2 shits about them and they sacrificed everything

Yeah I was thinking about that, he obviously can’t say he knows she was involved and has nothing else on her but i would still think she’d be wanted by the FBI for questioning

Did anybody expect Paige to run into Stan's girlfriend at Claudia's safehouse?

They don't have any operational evidence on Paige. She'll be fine.

I had a feeling Phillip and Elizabeth were going to be okay.

I'm conflicted about it, with all the evil shite they did.

I imagine after the fall of the USSR, they'll get in contact with Paige. I'm sure she'll make a trip to see them, and maybe Henry too.

They were true believers. They thought they were part of something much bigger than themselves, and therefore they had to do things that they might not have liked but that were necessary in the big picture.

Phillip at least was a decent person.

Elizabeth was too deep down, she just bought the party line more deeply.

Not a true soldier


I think a lot of it had to do with leaving Henry.

She'll be fine after the FBI is done questioning her. Stan's not going to say anything. They don't have any evidence of her actually doing anything.

Also again they find themselves in a land they don’t recognize and they don’t know anyone. They were once Russians in America. Now they’re Americans in Russia. Perfect ending IMO.
