What a fantastic episode. The interaction between Phillip and the Mossad agent was incredibly well done.

Yeah, I wonder how her end of the story will be resolved. I'm guessing with a bullet to the head.

Agreed. The whole mission-- from his interaction with the Mossad agent to the pleas of the scientist, was top notch. It had a gritty deepness that previous episodes lacked, and I wouldn't be surprised if it foreshadows Philip revisiting his second thoughts about defecting. The comment from the Mossad agent along the lines of "Me? I'm bronze, I get to go home for Passover. You're platinum-- I may hide what I do, but you? You hide who you are" was both awesome and deep. My only complaint is that the scrap they had with the Israeli agents wasn't some cake walk and they took some significant hits, yet they're back at home with the kids without a scratch/bruise on them?

Holy shit, no comments since 4/20?? I just watched the finale and it was awesome. The show is firing on all cylinders.
Yep, that was great. I was hoping Beeman would go Rambo and save Nina, but no, this isn't that show.

I don't know. In the first season, Phillip was the one who kept going back and forth on defecting, while she remained dedicated to the cause. Elizabeth now considering getting Paige involved is actually pretty consistent with that.

Yep, and we even saw it again this season when he went to confront the priest over Paige; he is seriously struggling with the meaning of his life while Elizabeth's struggle is seeing her children grow into the very thing she hates. I don't think it is very hard to see that next season will see Elizabeth's fear for what might happen to Paige become overshadowed by her desire to see Paige find the same path in life that she (Elizabeth) has. Phillip is going to fight it every step of the way but, in the end, I am betting that Paige is told and decides to go along with it.
