Hell hath no fury. Or something.



Would a woman who gives patriotic blowjobs for her country (the USSR) be that upset about being raped in training by an instructor, looking back?

Well, I guess.

It might even be all the more important to her, considering.

Wikipedia has almost nothing, so far, on this show.

In episode 1 the hubby wants to defect but the missus is outraged.

It's not clear she's really opposed to defection or just to what that would involve regarding the prisoner in their car-trunk.

That would be the KGB trainer who raped her but who has himself already defected and has warned the FBI about the deep cover agents in our midst.

A guy they kidnapped at the very start of the first episode and were supposed to ship back to Russia, but got stuck with when the boat left a little too punctually without the prisoner.

At the end of the episode she beats him up but does not kill him, leaving hubby the option to take him to the Americans as part of a defection deal.

But hubby learns of the rape during the beating and instead kills the guy.

He doesn't much like the wife, but he's come to feel she and the kids are the only family he's got and his only shot at a real life.

So the episode closes with a bit of renewed bonding between the two.

A little back-seat sexual intercourse in that same car.

The couple that kills together . . . .

I wondered about this.


According to an article in the entertainment trade magazine The Hollywood Reporter (THR), executive producer Joel Fields expressed his hope for the show’s impact: “It might be a little different to believe and get used to, but we want you to root for the KGB. They’re going to try to get the Soviets to win the Cold War.”


I don’t recall anyone in Hollywood ever being tempted to do the like with the Nazis.

Why would you want to do it with the Red Menace?

Murdoch owns this network?

Oh, are we really supposed to believe the Russians let their trainers rape the female trainees as a "perk"?

I realize this is fiction, but jeez.
