In our previous recap, after Paige confronted them about their lies, Elizabeth and Philip gave in, telling their daughter the truth. Removing his fake accent, Philip spoke in his native Russian tongue. Elizabeth reveals they have been getting information as spies, serving peace and their country. The parents warn their daughter, if she says anything to anyone, they will go to jail.
In our recent recap, Clark (Rhys) taught Martha (Alison Wright) how to lie during her interrogation at FBI headquarters. With there are more risks involved, Philip asks Gabriel (Frank Langella) for a favor and asks to get Elizabeth to visit her dying mother. As her world continues to fall apart, Paige was unable to speak to her parents, especially when her real grandmother was mentioned.
According to IMDB, the plot involves Martha hosting an unexpected guest. Will Philip's lessons of manipulation work against Stan Beeman (Noah Emmerich)? Meanwhile, Philip and Elizabeth must work a formidable Mujahideen commander.
Stan is also working with Oleg (Costa Ronin) as they attempt to save Nina from her prison sentence. In an interview with Examiner, Ronin reveals he is excited to see these two characters working together, "Fom a character viewpoint, it's amazing to be able to delve into that side of it. It's risky. You've got a KGB officer and an FBI officer trying to work together, and we know the stakes have just gone up. It's about Nina, but also it's about two men who work for secret services of their own countries who are in conflict. When you play that, when you explore that relationship, it's interesting. [And] when the consequences are so great, when so much more is at risk, it's a lot more fun to explore."
