I think she got her mitigation by forty years of extra comfortable living.

I definitely wish they would have worn masks, or better disguises, and spared the husband.

I'm fortunate not to be a lot of things.

I don't see how they can feel confident that they won't get shot if they disobey orders.

Ohhhh…I was wondering why he looked so familiar! Thanks.

And the German military included conscripted teenagers.

Yeah, he's a good singer! I wondered if there were any other World Party fans who caught that.

I think he's the first actor we've seen Hawley use both in "Legion" and "Fargo" (at least this season)…amirite?

He's awesome in the 2011 Miranda July movie "The Future". Highly recommended.

That was my feeling exactly. I was actually kind of mad at Noah Hawley there for a minute.

You can definitely make that case. But the showrunners don't see them as such.

But that's true of the Germans operating the gas chambers at Auschwitz also. You can't let people off with that excuse, or all of a sudden no one except the very highest officers are guilty of war crimes.

Yes, it ended up being worse than if they had just carefully planned a sniper attack or something. I thought Philip might be done with Elizabeth for killing him (killing her really wasn't optional).

Yeah, they should have worn masks.

I'm hoping the series ends with Stan never having a clue his neighbors were spies.

I'm rooting for the ending that will enrage most viewers: Philip and Elizabeth go back to Russia or into hiding (maybe in, like, Latin America), but Stan ends up none the wiser. He tells his girlfriend Renee, who is not a spy BTW: "Too bad they moved away, they were good friends."

Uhhh…you missed it. And she didn't say anything about being raped.

Well, and as harrowing as the scene was, that woman had done pretty well to evade justice for 40 years. It's her husband's death that is the real tragedy.
