Does Phillip know who Stan is sleeping with?

Both sides are using Nina to get information on each other so it wouldn't surprise me, but it also wouldn't surprise me if Nina's identity is above Phillip's clearance level

At first I thought this girl was too naive to last, now I have to wonder if there's a point when she realizes how much of a pawn she is and strikes back, and elizabeth has to kill her.

E- Reagan's a monster because his people made fake sub plans your government wanted to steal to bolster their own Navy? Is that what Elizabeth was getting at? Because shut the gently caress up if it is.

She was probably referring to Nicaragua, which she would feel especially angry about considering what just happened

I've got the same concern. The way he reacted to the guy saying he believes there's forgiveness for everyone, I'm concerned it's going to get a little goofy.

I honestly don't think we're going to get an arc involving Phillip praying to Jesus for forgiveness of all his sins and renouncing his life of spying (Though ironically praying it doesn't happen either). It must be said though, Phillip thought that was going to go down considerably different. He has his beliefs and he dedicated twenty years living a life that isn't his for those beliefs, even when he thought about defecting it was to secure a better life for his family rather than a decision that capitalism is better than communism. To encounter someone who believes in something just as hard as he does but not have the same beliefs scares the poo poo out of him.

As a minor digression, Oleg is a walking demonstration of this. He has a self-awareness of his place as a piece on the board in the game that was the Cold War, and that self-awareness has so far put everyone he encounters on edge. At the residentura they're thinking "He goes to Blondie concerts, he's going to defect" and when he talks to Stan he's thinking "He just talked to me as a person, Nina must be in danger"

I could also waste another paragraph saying there is a significance to the pastor inviting Phillip and Elizabeth on a mission trip because it ties into this season being about Contras. The short version is that the American government, the Soviet Union, and Christian missionaries do the same basic thing all the time: Offer help to countries like Nicaragua, just as long as you swear loyalty to their side

That turned out to be longer than I expected

That preacher was a real creep. Who takes $600 from a teenager without contacting their parents?

Good point but really who rebels against their parents by donating 600 to the local church? That's not exactly an everyday occurrence so if I was in his position I'd assume the money was approved.

Well poo poo that was a bleak finale. I have no idea where they're going next year, especially with Stan and Nina. Man.

During that scene where he watched her get taken away I was waiting for him to do something really stupid, but at this point he's either let her go or has a master plan in the works, I could honestly believe either one at this point.
