Pastor Tim
This was a bumpy one for Elizabeth and Phillip. First, they’ve got a crazy bioweapon in their house and it’s taking forever to get it out. Phillip takes the mission to get it out of the country and good lord does it go sideways. Not a good night and the weight of being a spy is beginning to crush Phillip. I don’t know what kind of shape he’s going to be in by the end of the season.
Elizabeth keeps tabs on Paige and discovers that she told Pastor Tim everything. Just when you think having the plague tucked away in your laundry room is a problem, your daughter rats on you. Elizabeth rightly freaks out and wants to go on the offensive…PT has got to go. Phillip is beside himself already and warns her to slow down so she takes recon on her own and comes up with a workable plan to nix PT that will take the both of them to pull off.
You can cut the tension with a knife in the Jenner household but never forget that ignorance is bliss. Henry has no clue that anything is amiss. In fact, he invites Stan over to check out his sweet new computer (that the motherland actually got him). The problem that emerged between Stan and Phillip last episode remains on “simmer.”
Nina defies her handlers again. She was close to being free (maybe, they might have just thrown her down a well anyway) and she’s cursed herself again. I like Nina a lot, the woman has her convictions and I respect that.
Paige is a bright girl and her parent’s secret is eating her up. She confides in PT because of that and feels tremendous guilt over it. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. Whenever she talks to her mother, she’s given very basic info. Yes, she knows they’re spies, but no specifics. Just “work” involving “talking” and “convincing” people. With a guilty conscience, a gut full of worry and being a crappy secret keeper, Paige confesses to Elizabeth that she told PT everything. Just in time too, although I don’t think she really knows what her confession did. Mission aborted. Â For now, anyway.
