CBJSprague24 posted:"You should've asked."? That's the best they could think to come up with? No, that guy was dead the minute he saw Phil and Elizabeth poking around, and they both knew it. That was just Elizabeth trying to work up some negative emotions towards the guy to make it easier for her to kill him.

OMG, I never would have figured that one out! I knew she looked familiar!

TheCenturion posted:She clearly considered him to be knowingly and willfully complicit in planning the genocide of innocent workers of glorious USSR, she didn't need any more reason to kill him than that. You're missing the point here. The reason he died was that he caught them doing spy stuff. He could have told her that he was just the night janitor and he spends his days raising puppies for orphaned children, and they were still going to have to kill him. Yes, as she went through the conversation with him, she purposefully cast him as complicit in trying to starve USSR citizens, but she was doing that as a defense mechanism so it didn't feel as bad as, say, forcing an elderly woman to OD on pills or something.

But I presume that's a can of pork with the little pig on the label.... so did he think he was buying canned kitten?

Earwicker posted:Do we know that's what actually happened? I don't remember the very first scenes with the son himself, but when Gabriel said that I assumed it was just some poo poo he was making up to make Phil feel better - after all, how would Phil even know? I thought it might have been a lie to help control Phillip too, but I would completely expect Gabriel to be able to make that possible if he wanted to. The Jennings are irreplaceable and ridiculously high-value operatives hidden in Washington DC -- if their controller called the center and said "The best-placed spies we have in all of America are going to have difficulties if this no-name grunt isn't removed from danger," I can't imagine there'd be anyone who would risk jeopardizing that just to keep another interchangeable soldier on the ground in Afghanistan.

The Muppets On PCP posted:boy is she gonna be in for a huge disappointment in a few years How well known was it back then that the KGB was into all kinds of awful poo poo? I can't imagine trying to tell a modern teenager that you're the good kind of spies that only ever steal bread to feed your starving country. I'm wondering if there's supposed to be a lot of dissonance on that point for Paige, that in the back of her head, she kinda knows that her parents are still lying to her about how they're just good people doing good work for humanity.

ffs I cannot believe that was a finale. I mean, once all's said and done I tend to marathon shows anyway, and I imagine the next season will flow from here pretty well, but goddamn was that anticlimactic.

Baronash posted:Seriously, the discussion since the season ended is worse than Whochat. Just a bunch of goons who desperately want random internet people to know that they have ~good opinions~ about tv shows and are not filthy plebes. Or, you know, just random people having a friendly chat over how they felt about the season?
