snick_backup* Lovely to see the Commandos and to see Peggy being appreciated by someone - not in spite of being a woman, but just as herself.
* I so want Dottie to turn out to be super complicated and interesting, but so far we seem to be going for brainwashed and psychotic. But there is still time! I LOVE that this is an element we've introduced into the show. And that last shot, brrrrr.
* All in all, that seems like kind of a weird trap? What was Leviathan going for, bringing them in there? WAS IT SO THE DOCTOR COULD INFILTRATE SSR?! Because I really can't seem much point otherwise. Leviathan clearly didn't care much about actually killing Peggy's team. I'm also not sure what the point was of using the girl as first contact. She clearly wasn't going to kill the entire team, so...?
* Was I the only one who was completely unimpressed by Thompson's sob story? I mean yes, I can see how that'd screw a person up, but it really felt to me like we'd reached the point in the story that said Insert Manpain Here. And even granting him being screwed up, I don't see how it follows that he must be a sexist ass.
* People have suggested that Sousa is a plant as justification for why the mercurial Enver Gjokaj is playing him, but I think it's clear from these two days of angsting over Peggy's identity that that's not the case.
* D'Arcy really does have extremely pretty eyes, doesn't he?
