This show really needs to be nominated for some Emmys.

i guess he's going to be super gung ho to get the illegals now...esp once they find jerad

which is pretty complicated with the whole "threat to the command" angle by philip

also now philip and elizabeth are at odds, like in season 1. she's still the bigger true believer in the cause

so much conflict

Lizzy is so delusional.

I assume they did a good job disposing of the bodies at the cabin though, Stan shouldnt be able to trace that back.

I wouldn't go that far. It's definately one of the top shows.

I didn't see the Jared twist coming. You knew Stan was going to leave Nina hanging though. It will be sad to see her go, she was the most likable person at the residentura, but her storyline had run its course.

I hope they don't drag out the battle over Paige too long. She's way too soft for the spy life. Elizabeth knows that, she's just desperate to connect with a daughter she doesn't understand. I wouldn't be surprised if Paige ran away and ratted them out if they tell her.

well the discussion/fight over paige could go on a bit, prior to any choice/discussion

and paige hates her parents b/c she doesn't understand her parents and thinks they're weirdos. i think elizbeth is right in that she's looking for a cause. it wouldn't be that shocking if they explained why they are so alien to her, and why they do the weird shite/lie that makes her upset. she may become sympathetic towards them now that she understands, and if she is looking for a cause/reason to live, she may not flip out

If she finds out how often they kill people she will. Paige is a hippie, not a commie.

Very spoilery interview with show creators

Worth the read; however, if you have not seen last night's episode, you should avoid.

Cannot fricking WAIT for next season!!!!!!

Nina pretty much dug her own grave by admitting she was the mole.

The stories of Russian Jesus might sway her though.

She won't like them at all when we find out the minister is an illegal and her Dad kills him.

I believe her big "something to believe in" speech was to see what happens, can they tell her what they are.

They opened new avenues this season, but lots of loose ends. Did the accountant die? He seems like he will squeal the minute they lean on him. I have a feeling Stan will be the one to do the investigation and he will get real close to the truth.
