A++++++++++++++ for the fucking awesome hats Taissa Farmiga and Jessica Lange wore in this episode!

You are right about those scenes being disturbing and sickening. But, and I hate to say this, Johnny was hot! That's how he was able to charm those women who would have run from him as fast as they could had they the presence of mind to do so. He was powerfully seductive and I was very conflicted watching Naked 20…

I remember being stunned that David Thewlis was not nominated for an Oscar. But Naked was released a year before Pulp Fiction when the Academy was still scared of indie movies when they weren't just flat out pretending they didn't exist.

In a season-ending Special Guest Star appearance, Al Jourgensen will be revealed as the killer.

Love is a Battlefield wasn't until 1985. And I'm kind of scared that I remembered that so easily.

I know it'll never happen but I so wish Paige would befriend someone at school who introduces her to punk and gets her to sneak out to the 9:30 Club. She's right there in DC in the early 80s where hardcore was happening and I wish the show would touch on that. She could cross paths with a young Ian MacKaye. And I…

Why am I having visions of Philip and Sandra hooking up? I don't know how they would get together in a way that would make sense right now, but seeing as they're both *ahem* estranged from their spouses at the moment…otherwise what else is there for Sandra to do other than just leave? They've got to give her more of a…

Whoever syncs up the music with the action/dialogue on The Americans is a genius. Did you catch how the line in "Rough Boys" that goes 'wanna get inside you' played in perfect time with Patterson's reaction to Elizabeth asking him 'do you wanna…?

Oh, Claudia totally told Elizabeth about the tryst to throw her off her game. Elizabeth asked why she should believe her but Claudia didn't even need for Elizabeth to believe her. All Claudia had to do was plant that seed of suspicion in her mind.

But afterward she rolled over and kissed him. She didn't have to do that if it was just work sex. Which leads me to believe it was either for old times' sake or Claudia put her up to it so she could tell Elizabeth and wreck their happy home.

"All I can say is, Elizabeth, do not go sniffing around for Gregory - I will be so mad if that happens! "

"he's coming on to her and is surprised that she isn't reciprocating"

"we're starting to get some whiplash from they love each other to they're just doing a job"

But was it just sex to produce physical evidence? Remember Irina rolled over and kissed Philip after they had sex. If it was just sex for work purposes, why would she kiss him? She didn't need to do that.

"He could have bought a necklace for Martha, instead he asked Elizabeth for something of her own."

You sound like my mom. She would have let me watch The Americans if it had been on when I was a teen. As it was, I watched whatever the hell I wanted to. We watched Dallas together when I was Paige's age in the early 80s and she probably would have gotten shit for it! More young women should be raised by moms like you.

Okay, so if Philip and Elizabeth are on the outs again, I see no other recourse but for Philip and Mrs. Beeman to have an affair. Philip said how much he liked Stan—so of course something has to happen to complicate their budding bromance—and both Philip and Mrs. Beeman are sleeping in cold, lonely beds right across…

But I don't want Elizabeth to become the vulnerable, suspicious, jealous wife. She's entirely too much of a badass and wouldn't she be kind of a hypocrite what with her history with Gregory? I want her to just assume Philip slept with Irina and take it in stride.

"Did she have you for breakfast, Stan?"

Oh, I think Annaliese will reappear at a most inopportune time. She has to because Scott the Swedish spy told her he loved her too. That has got to come back to bite him in the ass.
