precision posted:Holy gently caress that preview is good. Stan and Oleg going rogue is something I predicted long ago because it seems so obvious and I am so happy if that's what we were seeing Yeah they've put the effort into making it plausible for Stan to go that route. Because of course this show did because it's great and I didn't realize it was coming back so soon and now I'm very excited! e: is Reagan's name being misspelled a joke I'm missing?

precision posted:I wonder if we'll get to see Martha in the final season, living her new life in Russia, or if they just tossed her body out of the plane. That would make for one very pissed off Clark if/when he found out.

Nouvelle Vague posted:I'm the only person who feels Martha wore out her welcome. I don't want an extended plot line of Martha's Adventures in the USSR but wouldn't mind a couple scenes to establish her new life/death. Agreed about Misha but I trust the people making the show at this point.

TheCenturion posted:Lots of people have hair a different color than facial hair. And I get the impression that this job is out in a suburb or bedroom community. I'm glad someone finally brought this up. You goons need to get out of the house more often! It's not at all uncommon for natural blondes to have darker eyebrows/facial hair. And I think it's safe to say it's in the D.C. area. Defector dad works for the department of agriculture and they're certainly not in the heartland.

Fog Tripper posted:It is quite possible. I had been watching it on Amazon prime. I may have to rebinge it to see what I may have missed. So did I watch the season premier last night? They sneak into the base, dig up the body, young guy falls in and they shoot him? Yeah that was this season's premiere but it seems as if you missed some important bits of last season. Like Nina dying.

CBJSprague24 posted:Both parents just being mindfucked that Henry is good at math. And the show somehow plausibly setting it up (if even by accident) between him playing stratomatic with Stan and his interest in computers and games. This show is just too good. And have we ever gotten the exact age/grade difference between Paige and Henry? Because ya it feels as if he should be a freshman by now. Paige is probably 17 right? Between driving lessons past season and Matthew being a bit older and about to head off to college. Maybe Paige repeated junior year.

Didn't Elizabeth mention at one point that Phillip came from a better off family? His flashbacks still seem pretty rough. Is this a case of Elizabeth having it even shittier/being more of a communist crusader? Or just to emphasize how lovely the Soviet experience was during the Great Patriotic War? I guess I had imagined him coming from an Oleg type family or at least comfortably middle class.

Rewatched the most recent episode with my parents and they both immediately said spy! regarding Indiana University/U of I and they're not the most careful or critical TV viewers. Both my brother and I went to the real U of I though so that helps but the staff writers obviously write deliberately and it's hard to believe none of them are from the Midwest or familiar with the IU/U of I/Iowa abbreviating tradition. Plus why introduce the character if she isn't a spy? I'm having difficulty imagining ways in which she's relevant but just a normal person. Her conversations with him seem as if she's prodding for information but we've seen that's also just normal when an SO can't say very much about their job. tldr stan gf spy

CAPTAIN CAPSLOCK posted:If she was a spy she wouldn't have made that mistake I also thought that but it is an easy thing for the KGB to just overlook. So many layers... e: as a gay man, she's also much more attractive than him. And he's a nice guy but not exactly the most charismatic or socially adept one.

maskenfreiheit posted:Also, I missed the bit about Indiana... was Renee supposedly an IU grad? She referred to Indiana University Bloomington as U of I which is traditionally what University of Illinois Urbana Champaign is called and IU is the Indiana University abbreviation. It's reasonable that the FBI or CIA would have doubts about Stan's allegiance but assigning an agent to it seems like overkill versus monitoring. And he met her before he really dug in about Oleg right?

Tuan almost certainly knows what he only needs to know but the kid is clearly sharp and I'm sure he's connected most of the dots.
