The Americans recap: ‘The Day After’
Driving lesson – a rite of passage for any teenager.
Philip is gently guiding Paige through the steps of steering an automobile. She thinks she’d do better with a smaller c—
“Get the Camaro out of your mind,” he says.
Philip is quick to grab the wheel when he thinks she’s losing control, which is a nice reflection of how they’ve micromanaged Paige’s first forays into espionage. The girl suggests Philip join her at a church event so Pastor Tim will think they’re more “normal.”
Later, Philip and Stan are playing racquetball. Stan picks up on Philip’s new energy (he has a lot more free time now that Martha has been airlifted to the Soviet Union.) Stan can’t hang around long. He’s got to get to work because “the Munchkins,” one of which is his new boss, are cracking down on discipline and intolerant of any lateness or sloppiness.

The Americans recap: ‘The Magic of David Copperfield V: The Statue of Liberty Disappears’
We say goodbye to Martha without saying anything at all.
In a mesmerizing silent opening, this episode of The Americans walks us through the departure (for now) of a character who has become the beating heart of this show: Martha Hanson, the FBI secretary who became an unwitting pawn in the cat-and-mouse, counter-espionage game between the Soviet Union and the United States.
Now, her role is clear — both to herself and her supervisors at the Federal Bureau of Investigation. It is time to run.
A clock ticks. Faces are washed. She reads the peanut butter jar label with interest during a quiet, furtive breakfast. Then she and her “husband” Clark/Philip/Mischa drive to a woodland airstrip before dawn, and she is flown off to…somewhere. Nowhere.

The Americans recap: ‘Travel Agents’
“I’ll scream… And then everyone will know you’re KGB!”
That’s where we left things last week, dangling off a cliff, and episode 7 of this season of The Americans has the KGB and the FBI trying to track down poor Martha, who was last seen hollering that line at Gabriel.
The KGB plan, orchestrated by Oleg and Tatiana, is kind of a five-point turn to get her out of the grasp of the United States government: Martha gets on a plane, small enough to literally fly below the radar. She lands in Key West, gets on a boat to Cuba, and from there the Soviet Union brings her to Prague and then on to Moscow. Continue reading The Americans recap: ‘Travel Agents’
