In 1968, Joan would be virtually guaranteed to have full custody of Kevin if Greg makes it back from Vietnam and she divorces him.

I think you're misunderstanding Joan's reasoning with Greg and Roger when it comes to Kevin. Joan can control Kevin's perception of Greg. She and society at large will paint him as a heroic doctor who fought for his country.  Greg has been and will remain physically absent form Kevin's life so Joan has complete

Didn't she say that Pete was the only one in the office who had never broken a promise to her? Faint praise, yes, but outstanding in that sea of sharks.

I hate to be the one to tell you, but this is not a documentary, it's a work of fiction.

And by the end of it, he was clutching her with an intensity that seemed to communicate that she was the only thing that could keep him in reality for a few minutes.

Totally agree! That was my first thought as well as it wasn't just a look of recognition, but of revulsion bordering on horror.

Another thing: it seems as though Norman is named after his mother. Most people who name a child after one of the parents name the first one that way, not their second, third, fourth child (excepting George Foreman). So the fact that Norman is apparently named for his mother might also support the idea that Norman is

EW—you know, I never considered that the wig could have been her hair, but Norman was a taxidermist. Ewwww….

The incest began was Norma was 13 and she said it continued until her brother left home.  Farmiga is 39, though I'm not sure how old Norma is supposed to be. Dylan has reported his age differently in two episodes-once as 21 and then as 22. Norman is 17.

It's more of the "Vertigo" chignon that Kim Novak wore, but it did seem deliberate, especially when they focused on it in one shot. (Janet Leigh's hair was too short for a chignon.)

Hannibal brought Will a "breakfast scramble" when they were looking for Garret Jacob Hobbs.  But you're right —Will eats with Lecter less frequently than the other characters do.

The scene of Will in Tobias's basement reached unbearable levels of tension that I thought only Breaking Bad could deliver. *shudders*

@KidvanDanzig:disqus I think they also have everyone else leave the room when will envisions the crime to make the mental re-enactments easier to follow and distinguish from the present.  At first I thought that was underestimating the audience, but as the show has progressed and the line between Will's hallucinations

At one point last night I told myself I should look for interviews with Hugh Dancy about how he shakes his role off when he goes home at night. It seems it would take a toll on an actor to spend months playing Will.

His office has bothered me all along. No psychiatrist or therapist would have red walls.

Lost.

My heart stopped for a few seconds when Stan told Nina he was finally going to be able to exfiltrate her.  She must have been terrified at the prospect-she'd just confessed to the Russians that she was an American spy and the only thing keeping her alive was her ability to be a double agent.  If Stan succeeded in

It's also a nice callback to her telling Paige that people tend to see what they want to see in others. Elizabeth's mother clearly believed the photograph of a happy family was real and took great comfort in the idea that Elizabeth is surrounded by love. By asking Phillip to come home (in Russian),  Elizabeth finally

Girls On Film would be better for this show…

Harry's attitude toward Joan was even more obnoxious because we know Joan is actually better at his job than he is. Remember when she was reading scripts for him and passed over for the position?
