Maybe the bathroom was yet another nod to the X-Files.

Yeah, it's pretty clear that there is no grain conspiracy. They're just testing pest-resistant strains and/or pesticides for the Department of Agriculture. Does nobody remember that time the Centre had Elizabeth go out to the woods and get ready for the oncoming martial law and guerrilla warfare when Reagan was shot?

She could cut a deal if she had anyone to roll over on, but the only KGB agents she ever even set eyes on were Clark, Liz, and Gabriel, and one way or another I don't think they're still gonna be operating undetected in Falls Church in 1989.

How many times have P&E straight up murdered some uninvolved rando because they did a bad job of being spies? Turn off the lights that you turned on and *hide,* guys.
