I don't know if everyone caught it, but that was clearly a call-back to the final scene of the pilot when a suspicious Stan was in the garage and searching Phillip's trunk while an awesome song from that era played.

I really liked the finale, especially Claudia getting her revenge. The moment that they realized it was the dead drop car that was the set-up was also amazing. What a great show FX has put together. It's a shame there's almost zero water-cooler buzz about it. Hopefully some Emmy recognition is coming that would change that.

Yeah, he is like Elizabeth in that they are both firmly committed to whatever cause they are fighting for.

Looking forward to see how Nina can work him for information next season and how she'll try to give him false info.

I'll miss Claudia as I enjoyed the scenes she had with Elizabeth since there was a tension there that I found added to the intensity of those scenes.

So you're saying she'll definitely be back.

Don't know if it was this episode or the last one, but we kind of found out that they just leave heir kids alone at night when they go out? ("You know you're not allowed to go in there"). I assumed they had a great babysitter.

Just binged watched the first season this week. Great show. I'm sad I never watched it before now. Too many shows to keep up with though. I'm definitely in for season 2.

I don't know if it is a marketing ploy for publicity, but tabloids are linking Keri with Matthew Rhys in real life.

Here's some tabloid scoop on the Russell and Rhys rumors. She did split from her husband of 7 years last summer.
