- 2:15 — Oh god, that wig was so awful.
- 2:30 — 3 days later.
- 15:30 — Gryazi, Soviet Union July 1960
- 15:45 — That does not look like her 20 years younger.
- 18:30 — “Hare-lip” = Cleft lip and cleft palate
- 18:45 — What boy in the 80s would be caught reading Archie?
-
22:00 — Obvious prying is obvious.
- 23:00 — Jesus, isn’t she trained?
- 26:00 — Ronald Reagan
- 28:00 — Someone had a lot of fun with that girl’s hair.
- 29:30 — Nobody does that.
- 32:30 — Son Mathew will have a thing with daughter-girl.
- 37:15 — Moscow, April 1962

s01e04 – 2013-02-20 – In Control ∞
Spoiler
-
2:30 — I would never, ever, trust her. Never. Not with the load of shit she’s said and done. She’s a damned actor.
- But of course he can’t let on, since he’s shown some weakness in the past and she’s there to keep him in check as much as the reverse is true.
s01e05 – 2013-02-27 – COMINT ∞
Spoiler
- 8:00 — Office romances would be strictly off-limits, wouldn’t they?

- 11:30 — He’s wearing a wig there.. wouldn’t anything like that be an absolutely terrible idea? I mean, if they sleep together, and she’s the rough type, then that stuff might be jostled.
