FX continues with the Season 4 premiere of The Americans. In episode 3, Experimental Prototype City of Tomorrow, will Elizabeth (Kerri Russell) and Philip (Matthew Rhys) Jennings be able to keep their family safe as they go deeper undercover?

While Philip wakes up to Martha (Alison Wright) staring at him, Elizabeth is getting a makeover with group of women. Philip and Elizabeth then meet with Pastor Tim as they discuss Paige's confession. The two defend themselves as Pastor Tim automatically accuses them of being spies. Pastor Tim doesn't want the destruction of Paige's family but he will listen to his conscience.

Pastor Tim wants to meet with them in the next few days. Elizabeth and Philip tell Gabriel (Frank Langella) that at least two people know who they really are. Elizabeth wants a plan but Philip thinks they should leave. 

Stan (Noah Emmerich) notices Martha is unfazed by their boss as he scolds the entire office. Philip tells Paige (Holly Taylor) that Pastor Tim squealed to is wife, Alice. He needs his daughter to keep up the relationship with Pastor Tim and his wife. 

Gabriel meets with Claudia (Margo Martindale) as they discuss finding a way out for Philip and Elizabeth. Realizing it was wring to bring in Paige, Gabriel thinks its wise to finally bring Philip and Elizabeth home. Back at home, Elizabeth wants Philip to make peace with Stan because they need a friendly face at the FBI. 

While Nina (Annet Mahendru) is a holding cell, Gabriel reveals his plan that the pastor and his wife will have an accident. While the murder happens, Paige and her family will be in Florida. Philip disagrees with the murder of the pastor because he knows Paige will hate her parents and refuse the Centre.

Elsewhere, Paige is having an argument with Pastor Tim. The two deliberate over whether or not Paige's parents are capable of killing people. At home, Henry is excited about visiting Epcot Center. Henry convinces Paige that the trip was his idea, but something is bothering her. Do her parents really hurt people? During their trip, Philip and Elizabeth promise to have a long talk with Paige about what they do. 

As Elizabeth makes a new friend, Philip gets a visit from Stan's ex-wife. Philip reveals he was scared of getting punched by Stan. He's worried about Stan and where Beeman will go. After getting a memo, Stan admits to another agent that he suspects Martha. 

Nina dreams about seeing Stan again and wakes up alone in her prison cell. After getting the tickets, Philip has doubts about staying with the Center. The two find Gabriel choking on his own blood. He may have been infected with Glanders. 

They meet with William (Dylan Baker), who then starts running. Philip spits on William to make him stop. William injects himself with an antibiotic before helping Gabriel. William burns Glanders in the oven as he reveals everyone has to be quarantined for the next 36 hours.

This means Philip and Elizabeth will have to stay put and cancel their trip.
