I'm confused. How is Elizabeth's framing Don going to be executed? Will she threaten to tell Young-Hee if he doesn't cooperate? I didn't see any photographic evidence being created, an omission that would weaken the coercive pressure Elizabeth could use against Don. Anyway, she's pretty strong dragging and lifting

There's a lot of hilarity when 100% Americanised monolingual people visit the ancestral homeland and are scolded by the locals. The admonishments vary from "No, you're not Irish, you're an American" to "Why don't you speak Korean?"

That's unhappy, insecure, and often bigoted people score keeping. They're prisoners of the pecking order in their minds. If you step out of line you gotta be checked. Your business is most certainly their business.

Damned if you, damned if you don't. For years it was seen as a sign of integration, ergo approvably progressive. But inevitably others, often from team people of colour, found it problematic. Black women were the first I heard mentioning of "our men" being stolen, and then later Asian men starting whingeing about not

I felt a bit sorry for Dr Mindy today because she was shamed into doing things that hadn't come to her on her own volition and interests. She was coerced by the pejorative "coconut". Neel disliked her because she didn't conform to his definition of 'Indian', which is a bit dodgy given all the different ethnic,

There were some good ideas there, for example the googles, but poor execution resulted in zero laughs.

If you behave yourself, you'll get a bit of lard and yellow food colouring for DYI margarine.

I think you're right. It requires a lot of self-reflection, and she realised the threat it posed to Philip and, ultimately, to operation and family security.

All this dramatic build up yet it was the two easy targets being voted out last week and this. With 4 of the 5 castaways having good chances to win it should make for entertaining final episodes.

Singapore Disney. Less authoritarian than Singapore itself and no caning whatsoever. Go ahead, it's your holiday, don't flush.

Who else but the king sits on the wall? C'mon.

Is this no longer a comedy programme?

I think Cuba, East Germany, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Romania, Bulgaria, and Hungary would all be safe. Other communist states, such as Albania would be difficult if not impossible for the CIA to operate, but were less under the Soviet and KGB sphere of influence.

I was getting an Estonian vibe from her. Certainly not Latvian. As if.

… but he was able to put off the prospect of sleeping together by improv-ing the stuff about finding God.

I didn't get the paternalism vibe. I took it as an indictment of himself that the Soviets were able to infiltrate right under his counter-infiltrating nose to the person who most closely handles his affairs. Disbelief of the operation's boldness and its success.

Better memory than me. Well done.
