The Americans: The 2nd best espionage/spy show on TV

Fucking epsiode was close to perfect...
there was no action scenes but for long time Americans fans that marriage between the two of them in Russian with their Russian names was just fucking earned.

And Father Tims days in America are numbered.

That was a beautiful scene.

Too bad we're not really supposed to like Philip and Elizabeth. They are enemies of the US. It is going to suck when they are captured/killed.
 
I feel so bad for Philip when he shows his emotions. He cares for these people that he's supposed to be spying on/against and it makes his life so much more difficult. Saying that he didn't want Stan to become Martha was powerful.
 
i think paige did that so they can see what she's been going through. it hit them in that last scene.
old guy even told phillip. paige ain't cut out for spy life.

Yeap but i disagree... I think Paige is getting addicted to it.. especially after that told her America potential sending over insects to kill their food supply. If you notice.... Neither of them have told her the real truth of about what the company is trying to do for world hunger.
 
I see what u are saying....

She comes across as so doe eyed and fragile though. Time will tell.

I might stand and clap when she does her first kill lol.
 
Damn Phil is all kinda fucked up

losing one son, never met the other while being forced to spend time with his fake son
& Henry at the FBI with his best friend whose sole purpose is to catch ppl like his parents

and damn Elizabeth might be one of the stone coldest ppl to ever appear on tv.
bitch killed the husband who completely innocent and first just outta spite

That ending... the fact that Elizabeth said I want to get out of here was a huge moment. This was one of the first times where she legit struggled having to kill someone.

It didn't seem like she struggled. It just seemed like she turned on that switch, did the job, then later thought, it is time to go.

Philip struggled. Elizabeth was looking at Philip like

Shit sucked, but they couldn't let him live after seeing them, even in disguise. He lives, he runs to the cops, tells them about the wife he knew, the story she told, FBI is involved, they connect dots to Russians.

didnt even think about that.
he was the reason she came clean but she also signed his death certificate

i believe she was in a real tough position as a teenager forced to be the bed wench of the ppl that killed her family and compelled to kill her on ppl.

but good or justice is done by the kgb killing her now? i believe Elizabeth's dad was killed in wwII and she down for yhe cause but after hearing the full story she had yo have felt some hesitatiton.

funny thing is that could be her and phil in their old age at the wrong side of the gun. even if they get a conventional happy ending they'll be looking over their shoulders forever

She turned on the switch but she struggled.. the old Elizabeth wouldn't have even waited a second after she shot the husband to kill the wife but you can look at her eyes right before she ultimately pulled the trigger... she hated what she had to do.
 
Goodbye pastor Tim...
I wonder how long it's going to be until we hear about the family dying from an allergic reaction to some kind of alfrican plant.


Damn Paige was like fuck this cross. Wow that was extremely telling
 
Man this episode was everything... Fucking Matthew Rhys has got to get an Emmy.. I don't know how its got to get done, but GAWD DAMN IT.. .this shit is an injustice.
 
I think they have the tape on Oleg. Whenever he's out and alone I think the hammer is just going to drop on him and he's going to die unceremoniously
Tonight it was his brisk walk over the bridge. I thought he was just going to be a victim of a drive by shooting. Or get hustled into a van.

Elizabeth finally wants to go but Henry is too smart and well adjusted. Uprooting him will be the end of him. He might turn state's evidence if they tell him the truth and he's got to move to Russia.

Paige is cool now. Her hormones are under control and she's learning.

That new plant they have is going to get them killed. Brought the husband to the meeting she told him everything all of that.

Twan is too cold to be a spy

I think you mean get the plant killed. They aren't touching Stan. The Centre knows how important he is to the Jennings and so far the show has consistently showed that the Centre doesn't interfere on targets that might affect the Jennings ability to perform. Pastor Tim and his wife are the greatest examples this.


As for the plants husband I couldn't stop laughing during that scene because ol girl came in innocently thinking that her two Americans friends have nothing to worry about and during that entire conversation you could see that Stan and Holt were trying to figure out how they could take out dude without affecting the mission. They already knew the score.

When dude started talking about raising the amount to 700 dollars...Stan was like.

I don't even think the Centre knows what's going on as of right now with the plant.
I knew he was going to ask for more money as soon as he walked in the door. She knew it too she just was too scared to ask for more.
They need an exit plan for her immediately cause she already ain't built for the spy game.

I agree.. I don't think the centre knows anything about the Plant. I also agree about her wanting more money but is to afraid to ask. I think the problem is that, I think she is so naive that she doesn't fully understand the danger she is in.
Stan and Holt know it.... fully.

They need to find an exit plan for her, but she has already said too much. I wouldn't be surprised if meets her end next week.

Walking home from work.
 
That final season is going to be Fucking devasting man... even if everybody survives intact. The Henry and Stan reveals... are going to kill me. Especially the Stan one..

Henry might kill himself when he learns the truth or maybe we don't see shit coming and interferes with the FBI/Stan to save his family. I can't wait for those developments.

Twan is one cold motherfucker...even Elizabeth like wtf is up with this motherfucker

Twan is a beast...that is all.

Can one of you brothers do me a favor and help me understand what's going on with the lady Stan and his partner are working with. I feel like I missed a crucial conversation episodes ago that explained what's going on. All I remember is Stan and his partner running up in people basically letting them know that they can talk. I guess this chick volunteered to talk for money and fixing her teeth, but I don't know what information she's been giving up and who that information is against or how it will help the FBI. Who is this dude she brought in now, someone from the Centre? If so, how did you two pick up on that. I'm lost with that story line.

When the camera stayed on Oleg for that long minute i thought that someone was just going to walk in front of him and start shanking him multiple times

Sofia works for a Russian news agency. They are attempting to recruit her as an asset within her organization to allow them access to Russian information. Originally they never planned on getting more then just a couple names from her but then based on conversations it has appeared that she might be more valuable then anticipated... which is why she is the only reason Stan has his job right now.

Ah. Got it. Thanks.
 
Did Paige just take the Jennings cover car..... I've got to go back and check but that looked like the cover car.


Side note...

I completely forgot about the Jim Cover.... man I'd hate to be a casual viewer of this show. You would have no idea on some of these scenes.
 
I don't know how we can do this.... but Matthew Rhys has got to get a Gawd Emmy. His performance a broken down Phillip this season was brilliant. Its all in the nuances that he gives.
 
Every time they think they're out something drags them back in and deeper.
Henry's going to boarding school now.
Twan has nerve to grandstand. He's lucky to be alive talking about reflecting in my report. I would've slapped him off of GP.
Underrated moment- Martha gonna have a baby.
Husband is straight as an arrow.

Phil and Stan living the exact same life. Ready to bounce and cupcake it up but their women are like nah you can't do that it's too important stay in.

Paige got in the cover car lol. She also was scared af walking in the lot that training don't really translate to the streets yet.

Poor Henry
You raise yourself cook for yourself go to school don't do or sell drugs always at home or a place they can reach him at in an age without cell phones did so good in school got a scholarship to one of the top boarding schools in the entire country all by himself and what does he get?
YELLED AT
lol
 
Stan's chick is a undercover agent that's the only reason you tell someone to stay in the job that they say they hate is if you want information from them
