I thought Paige’s guy worked for Nunn too?

In about five years, Phillip is gonna be a HUGE fan of the first Rage Against The Machine album.

I’m waiting for the Mail Robot, R2-D2, and Johnny 5 fan fic gangbang.

Definitely. The Sopranos was good at that. That show could get really dark and violent, but it was also one of the funniest shows on TV.

I don’t even want to think about how bad it will fuck that kid up if his parents and sister are all busted, and he has to be all alone while the rest of his family is branded as traitors in the media.

And thinking about that is making me wonder: Is Phillip going to Chicago to increase the odds of the mission’s success to make sure that’s not Elizabeth and Henry’s last conversation? Or is he going to try sabotaging it somehow so it fails before Elizabeth can even put herself in danger?

No, I said retroactively back in the 80's, and in the fictional universe of the show. And I was just saying it as a joke to make fun of how bad Stan’s pro-Reagan Thanksgiving speech was. This show is way too nuanced to completely root for one group against another.

Except when it comes to Mail Robot. If you don’t like…

You’re right. It is “Forum” according to the CC.

And when he tells her “I’ll come”, she knows it’s 100% for her. He could care less if any future missions are strategically successful.

The GOP?

At first, I was wondering if it was the same intern Paige slept with and I just forgot what he looked like. That would have been REALLY weird depending on how far Elizabeth gets with it.

Ha! It was like a secular Jehova’s witness pitch, but scarier because IT’S COMING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE! Terrifying.

That speech single handedly just made me retroactively change my allegiance to my home county in the 80's. The rest of the series, I’m on Team KGB instead of FBI.

It seemed like she thought it could possibly be her last conversation with him, and still couldn’t summon the vulnerability or warmth to say “I love you” at the end.

I heard “foreign”. And since I’m a huge nerd, I’m going to re-watch with the closed captioning on to find out.

Yeah, Mail Robot’s red light was kind of giving me a threatening Hal vibe from 2001: A Space Odyssey.

I believe Templeton moved their rye production from Iowa to Indiana a few years back too.

One of them karaoke joints with the private rooms with a few modifications would be just about perfect for that.

“ I got proposed to at a restaurant once by someone I was not dating.”

What!? What kind of weirdo does that!? I really feel for you, or anyone who’s had to deal with that kind of awkwardness. Did they get that idea from TV or a movie? The last time I can remember seeing that happen on screen, it was played for absolute…

I think that’s because the show is trying to be authentic. Most silencers in TV and movies are fake. They’re going to be bigger than the roll of Lifesaver sized ones you usually see on pistols, and a lot louder than the “pew, pew” you tend to hear as the sound.
