I'll never get tired of Noah Emmerich as Stan the third wheel.

Fuckstick posted:Am I the only one that thinks that the pastor is secretly with the centre, and with the help of Elizabeth is actively grooming Paige behind Phillip's back? This theory about the pastor has been eating away at me ever since watching his calm reaction to the confrontation with Phillip last season. I'd suspect he's grooming her but not for spy work.

beanieson posted:easy to say when the boy doesn't have story lines. Hey now he stole a photo of Stan's wife in a bikini. Surely that'll have repercussions a couple seasons down the road.

Reverse Centaur posted:This show is so great. What's the angle on the Northrop lady though? It seems very convoluted. Presumably it's about stealing info on the B-2 since that was Northrop's big project around that time, and one of the minor storylines last season was about getting hold of the radar deflecting paint. And there was a dude in real life who got busted in like 83 or 84 for trying to sell info to the USSR. e: wait last season was all about getting info on the stealth bomber nevermind Alec Bald Snatch fucked around with this message at 16:28 on Mar 12, 2015 |

Branis posted:I thought last season was about the super secret prop that ended up causing a sub to sink. Anybody think martha is gonna rat out clark? I figured she was gonna eat her gun but that look at the end of the episode was intense. Yeah there was the paint guy, plus trying to reverse engineer ARPANET to gain access to the software and calculations they used to design the aircraft. The irony with the last part is the fundamental concepts behind stealth design came from a Russian mathematician the Soviet government ignored because they thought his research had no immediate practical application, so they let him openly publish his work.

I just realized Arkady is Eton from season 2 of The Wire.

Russia still had spies after the collapse of the USSR. It's not like they quit being the most paranoid country in earth overnight in 91. I'd like to see what happens to their spies as Russia transitioned into its current kleptocratic mafia state.

Sober posted:They know Paige is pretty mature for her age so she should eventually come around to the fact that keeping quiet is in everyone's best interests, Pretty sure that was the point behind her reaction to her parents' conversation with Stan.

The funny thing about the whole B-2 F-plot nonsense is the Russian were the ones who developed the mathematical principles behind it back in the 60s

BIG HEADLINE posted:If only they'd spent more time making their population computer-literate. =/ It's actually kinda impressive how much they accomplished considering trade embargoes forced them to develop from scratch whatever they couldn't reverse engineer from smuggled components.

CBJSprague24 posted:Thanks, I figured it stayed in Berlin. I didn't think they were suggesting (and I've just seen the scene all the way through, caught bits and pieces the first time through because I was tied up) they came all the way from the Russian border, though as ridiculous as that sounds, Justified always treated Lexington and Harlan as if they were 20 minutes apart. It's only about 15 hours from Smolensk to Berlin by car. Presumably they knew a few days in advance Elizabeth was going to Berlin.
