Thanks. I'm hoping there'll be a new Matthew Weiner show by then. I can't go any lower.

Is there one or more episodes left? Someone? I need to be prepared!

Ok you've made a good argument. I agree. It's just it has been kind of off and on, she does seem often gung ho to keep going full steam ahead, then she balks at the things you mention. I'm certainly relieved !

I think Indoctrinated is a very apt word about them both. The indoctrination (which they call training) prevented them from doing what Philip is trying to do now, think about the parts of himself he never thought about before, and telling Paige that who she is now as a kid doesn't have to be who she is later.

And one big enough so that you wouldn't need a suitcase

It sounds like Horn and Hardart. If anyone remembers.

We will see Misha again. He's Chekov's Misha. He'll be back.

It seems like they are showing us how hard it seems for E and P to disobey and think for themselves. Postponing the honey trap trips was a very small step but otherwise they feel they must do what tbsy are assigned to do. Even Philip. He couldn't pull the trigger but he didn't stop her either.

And be a travel agent

Do you know where I could get a job where I could swipe liquor?

Although I'm glad Elizabeth is beginning to see the light, I felt like the show pulled a fast one. We've been watching Philip's ambivalence and disgust about being a spy since episode 1. But now it seemed like Elizabeth's comment about getting out came out of nowhere. I had to think back, did anything lead us to…

He could pass off Tuan as being a couple of years older than an average junior or senior or whatever he is supposed to be since he was a refugee who didn't speak English and would easily have started late.

my supervisor is from Ukraine and we make sure not to say she's Russian. I like the accent!

But how was it arranged? Philip must have communicated with someone to get the whole location and time and method arranged. And where would you get one of those fake rocks?

Wishin and hopin'

I loved that line, when Tuan said that the kids probably didn't even realize that he had given them the idea to do it. cracked me up

Is it even legal? Or just a religious wedding? They don't seem to be going to register it anywhere in Virginia or wherever they live.

Yes I noticed that too. There were 2 big easy chairs. In the hallway!

I was so happy to see that she got Arkady's job. I mean if he couldn't have it. She thought they'd never put a woman as the head of a Rezidentura.
I loved Philip doing the fake rock drop and also seeing the Rez and Tatyana but couldn't Claudia just have dealt with that ?
