It *is* incredible. The writers, producers, actors - they pulled it off. Bravo, kudos, and applause!
What a magnificent way to end the first season. The edge-of-your-seat tension. Paterson's sad, dramatic death at the hand of Claudia. (I verified on Wikipedia that they had tasers in the eighties - so that's what "taser" stands for.) The Colonel was the real deal, saying all the things we used to say about SDI at the time, how impossible the technology was. ("Research physicists need Porsches, too!") Nina now has Stan right where she wants him, and we have Phillip and Elizabeth right where we want them.
But there's Prince and his testimony, Paige and her hereditary "inquisitiveness", and dumb-dumb Martha and her loose cannon. Our antiheroes will be on their guard after the Weinberger sting (I would hate to be that maid right now), but will it be enough?
Bring on season 2!
