    Did she shoot him down or just make him check his breaks? I think she got the point across to him, but in a way that didn't deflate him.

      You're right-it wasn't really a "shoot-down".

          Superficial Observation:Keri Russell gain some weight in all the right places.

          I'm right at the shower scene.

          EDIT: Building up to some good stuff with Oleg, and you wonder how long the Russian born agriculturist has to go. Is there something else going on with Stan's new lady friend?

            The Americans - Season 5 (March 7th)

            This season has been pretty slow compared to the first 4. I binged watch the first 4 seasons before this one started and it's just at a slower pace.

              I appreciate the nuances and the "getting there" of the show as much as the wow moments which The Americans sets up perfectly. I'm not saying that you don't because you just binged watched four seasons, but my only complaint about this season was the elaborate buildup to get William's sample-even Han's death didn't shake it up that much. (IMO)

                Finally what I'd consider a damn good episode tonight. Really, really good.

                  It was the best one of the short season. No mercy on the bug scientist.

                      I love the show but it's just weird to me that the main plot right now is about bugs.

                      The writers are so good that it works. It's almost as if they read OS and know what this user base is scared of the most.

                        The Americans has always been authentic, but in this episode I struggled with Beeman's reckless regard for his career and even his freedom. Didn't 99.999% of FBI agents in the early-mid 80's have laser focus when dealing with commies?

                          Another meh episode. Just wasting them as if we have 30 episodes a season.

                            Yeah, I recognized her right away... Does anyone else get the feeling that she is a Russian spy too, that was sent to get cozy with Stan, but Elizabeth and Philip don't know about her? The way Stan was able to easily slide right in with her makes me suspicious, plus how she has a story about everything seems like a cover.

                              Looks like the single lady on the bike who's "family" is her sister's family is the perfect foil for Philip, but maybe she's not interested. I wonder if Elizabeth will kill the guy in the beard? Very good episode. (IMO)

                                If you watched the scenes for the next episode at the end that's what they seem to be hinting at.
