*Seriously people: tell your friends to watch this show.
Witness Elizabeths long con with Northrop employee Lisa (Karen Pittman).
I dont even recall mentioning Lisa in my review last week as I didnt see the significance.

Now if Lisa could only get a job.

Philip asks Elizabeth if he should sleep with Kimmy.
I dont know, she says.
And she means it.
They live in a paradigm in which sex isnt always real.

Sometimes, Philip says.
Spying and secrets are everything for these characters.

Still, in the process hell still end up hurting someone else.
