I was thinking that, too, cc. He did just have a test last week. But then again, out of the two, Elizabeth is much more gung-ho, and I could never see her leaving, whereas Phillip seems to like the life he has built, and I don't think he sees America as evil as the Soviets made it out to be. Also interesting - I wonder if the son was real? And I wonder what is going to happen with the FBI agent and the girl. I don't see it ending well for her at all. I love this show.

Good point about Phillip already being tested last week you guys so maybe it wasn't another one - except personally. The life he has/the life he could have had/ and the life he could have.

Yeah, I think the Soviet girl is toast. When I was in college (not too many years past this show) I remember going to a lecture by a former FBI agent who talked about how they used young women like that all the time while fighting the Cold War. Many ended up casualties.

I love Soviet girl - what's her name? Didn't think we'd see all that nudity although it is rated MA. I hate when they kill off the characters I enjoy. We shall see I suppose.

I forget her name but I like her too - she's no shrinking violet. About they nudity I guess I watch alot of HBO/Showtime so I am used to it -but Nip/Tuck and Rescue Me (two other FX shows) always had lots of nudity too. Maybe it's the channel?

ETA: It just popped into my head. Her name is Nina.

I think it's FX. Theyre not very shy around the nudity. They have Archer, too, which is as raunchy as they come. I think they're one of those pushing-the-envelope channels.

Oh I don't mind the nudity I just didn't expect it when it happened. I like adult shows. I watched lots of FX shows and of course cable. I love me my R rated films

I dunno, I didn't trust Nina at all. I'm sure the actress gave us both options about what to think though. I do think he didn't trust her, and in his position, that was a smart thing to do. He did ask if the story of his son was real, after all.

There is a mole, and that mole caused damage, I can see the Soviets not taking one beating as enough proof, especially when the wife said what she said about him.

Don't they think the mole is the guy from the embassy or whatever they call it? They they took him back to Russia to be dead - so to speak.

You're right ccc. I think Mariah meant Irina, not Nina and was talking about the KGB suspecting a mole - which may or may not exist.

Well, we know the mole still exists. What's her name, the one boning the FBI guy.

There could always be more than one though. The baby mom just seemed shady to me, and it doesn't look like he is ready to trust anyone right now, especially not a blast from the past telling him he has a son.

Problem is, she could have been telling him the truth, but the acting sure made me think she was lying her ass off to him as a test.

I have to get these names straight!

That's Nina. Okay, I see what you were saying Mariah. I was confused with two stories. So the KGB suspects there is a mole and tests Phillip and Elisabeth by torturing them but the mole was Nina, the girl in the Embassy and informant for the FBI man. The FBI agent frames the Residentz guy to throw them off track and then sleeps with Nina.

Meanwhile, Phillip is in NYC seeing his old girlfriend Irina for the first time in 20 years who just happens to also be a KGB agent and who may or may not have been testing him (even though the KGB already tested him.) I think I've got it now. :unsure:

I can remember Irina, my favorite character from Alias, even though the way they ended it was BS.

Yeah, Irina seemed pretty shady to me.

Reminder - tomorrow is the new Bates Motel.

Also got sucked into LA Shrinks. It was on yesterday, mid day and is VERY graphic. The shrinks are all messed up and two of the three do sex therapy. I could not believe tit was on mid day. They have a disclaimer at the beginning, but for goodness sakes Bravo. One of the scenes featured the therapist giving her patient the assignment of recording their sex - and then they played it. It was really graphic. The therapists are so self absorbed it's like a trainwreck I can't look away from.

I saw the preview for LA Shrinks. I'll have to check it out. Im so excited for Bates Motel, Shopper. In the previews, though, it looks like the son is making out with the mother. Disturbing.
