Life has led me to the conclusion that we don't deserve anything. Things just happen or they don't. Your behaviour doesn't figure into it. *shrugs*

I'm thinking back to the beginning of the show where they discussed with each other that they would never let themselves get caught but die first. So it's hard for me to imagine an ending at this point. It's also a question what s6 has in store for us – will it be a continuation timeline-wise or will they do a fast forward to the fall of the iron curtain? I don't read interviews/spoilers so I don't know if the showrunners have ruled that out. In case they haven't. Perhaps that's their chance to slip away.

It's either that or die. Or Elizabeth needs a really harsh wake-up call that makes her question everything. I suppose one thing that makes me doubt that they will defect before 1989 is that Phillip knows the Centre caught up with Irina and executed her when she defected.

Hah, yes that's right Henry was hero-worshipping Stan for a while there, hasn't he. Remember how he had a picture of Sandra in a bikini and Paige found it? *lol* I also agree with your assessment of character – Henry, other than Paige, doesn't have these moral hang-ups and therefore would make a better agent. I don't think he has a strongly developed sense of patriotism either, yet unlike Paige Elizabeth can't expect to bond with him over ideology. So I wonder what a possible incentive might be.

Well for what it's worth, I share your annoyance when it comes to Pastor Tim.

Did you watch the short-lived drama Allegiance last year? I thought it was unfortunate how it was advertised since it didn't have much in common with The Americans except that there was a family spying for the Russians but totally different era and circumstances. Anyway. I digress.
