[IronRinn]

[LaunchpadMcQ]

Lol what the fuck is this shit. Dude is probably going to stay nervous on the plane all the way through just to realize he left it.

 

[-griffy-]

Dude totally left it there on purpose.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Lol for a split second I thought that nightmare was real.

 

[IronRinn]

Jeez, Liz!

 

[IronRinn]

No one wants anything to do with this shit.

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

Dude totally left it there on purpose.

Oh, that's probably true

Lol for a split second I thought that nightmare was real.

I totally flipped out. My mind went from "what's she doing there.. wait he's already dead!?! Who the fuck is this guy!?" .. I was fooled

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

God bless Henry.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

nvm

 

[IronRinn]

Nice shot.

 

[Niraj]

Liked that shot of Paige and Elizabeth on the opposite sides of the door

 

[Niraj]

lol Henry

 

[jay23]

We need more Henry

 

[IronRinn]

Oh, Henry.

 

[-griffy-]

Damn Henry, first Mrs. Beeman now the science teacher.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Ah fuck me I forgot non canadians are behind as usual. Good I remembered on episode 2. Where were you cornballer to remind me.

 

[Ristifer]

Yeah, I'm Canadian, and I was noticing I was ahead of everyone on my Twitter feed. Oops.

 

[IronRinn]

Figure out how to off that mofo.

 

[IronRinn]

Fuuuuuuuuck.

 

[Mindlog]

Figure out how to off that mofo.

They're going to make Paige do it.

 

[Niraj]

"We're in trouble."
"I know."

Rough times ahead

 

[-griffy-]

Tainted Love is the soundtrack to Henry's love life.

 

[IronRinn]

They're going to make Paige do it.

Lol.

 

[jay23]

Damn Henry, first Mrs. Beeman now the science teacher.

He's got a thing for older women

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Henry is the hidden gem of this show. Everything about him is great. His love for eddie murphy and milfs is appreciated.


Also like good guy Beeman there.

 

[Niraj]

Damn at that preview.

 

[IronRinn]

Next week's gonna be messed up.

 

[-griffy-]

Fuck at that preview.

That Camaro is so clean.

 

[Spectral Glider]

They're going to make Paige do it.

I had that thought too. Here you go, Paige, your first assignment!!

 

[tearsintherain]

Henry is a philistine, the burned edges of mac and cheese are the best part. I suspect he is the Zodiac Killer.

I think it's bold how each episode has scenes that take place entirely in russian. it must be like 40% of the show. they could've easily had the soviet characters speak english in russian accents instead but they went for broke.

I wonder why Dylan Baker's character is doing all of this. I don't recall much context being given last episode. Does he believe in the Soviet cause? Or did this start reluctantly? I'm curious about his angle on the potential use of biological weapons. Does he see himself as providing something for the Soviets to ultimately use, or is it just about keeping up with the arms race? Obviously he has no interest in stepping out and getting into the level four labs.

I can't wait to see what Henry's doing with the computer.

Thankfully FX is cool with that. The Bridge also featured extensive use of subtitled Spanish when appropriate, rather than finding excuses for everyone to speak English.

 

[MisterFalcon]

I wonder why Dylan Baker's character is doing all of this.

He seems to be like his character on The Good Wife who does stuff just for the thrill of it.
At some point making diseases that can wipe out thousands gets stale and he just needed to make things exciting.

 

[Disgraced]

Lol for a split second I thought that nightmare was real.

I'm slow; I thought it was real for way longer than that—I was so shocked I ended up needing to rewind five minutes. My jaw dropped and locked.

 

[AngmarsKing701]

Another great episode. The conversation about Est between Philip and Elizabeth was intense. I was like "is she going to flip out on him?" ... and Rhys did such an amazing job with that, because he sounded reluctant, and he put more distance between them while he was talking, almost as if he wanted to make sure he could defend himself.

The Pastor Tim stuff is good... the bus scene was amazing. No one wants to have this biological weapon in their possession.

Then Henry. Does anyone else get the feeling that these Henry/Stan bromance scenes aren't just filler? I get the feeling that with all the shit going on, the focus on Paige and Pastor Tim, that it's going to be something seemingly innocuous that Henry sees and shares with Stan that blows the cover on them. Just my guess though.

Woah, this is going to be good. Thanks for the link.

 

[The Doc]

can't see how nina's letter wouldn't have been noticed. maybe she wanted to be caught due to guilt over how she was achieving her release. In board terms , the more i look into this character's ambiguity , the more a tragic ending comes to mind.

 

[Cornballer]

Woah, this is going to be good. Thanks for the link.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to it. Note that this is the podcast for this week from the usual crew.

In this installment on Episode 402, “Pastor Tim,” a former KGB secret agent, Jack Barsky, stops by to compare his own experiences as a spy with those of Phillip and Elizabeth, from recruitment and training, to having two different families while living next door to the FBI.

That bus scene felt like something out of Breaking Bad.

 

[Saty]

That bus scene felt like something out of Breaking Bad.

I expect it will come back to haunt the Jennings. That was rash and should provide fingertips (even though the cops won't have something to compare to) and maybe even hair. I'm still waiting for the sloppy killing of Gene to come into play.

Damn Henry, first Mrs. Beeman now the science teacher.

[wowbaggerBR]

Man, this show never disappoints.

 

[Mindlog]

That's another little note in the back of my head when I'm watching this show. Philip Jennings is a sick murderer, but they do a really good job playing with my reactions to him. Hard not to contrast him with Walter White who was a much more selfish villain.

I had a good laugh at the lengths they went to get the pilot correct, but then realized how many those details they forgot to actually point out. Fascinating podcast.

If you like the show listen to the podcast.

 

[TripOpt55]

Another great episode. The bus scene, the one with Paige and Elizabeth as well as the first and last with Phil/Elizabeth all excellent.
