[Minor spoilers below, do not read beyond this line if you have not watched Season 3]

Season 3, which was the best season of the series yet, ended on a suspenseful cliffhanger, with Paige phoning her close confidant to seemingly expose her parents' true identities. Surely Elizabeth and Philip would not be pleased about their daughter disobeying them - could this be the beginning of the end for Pastor Tim?

On the ideological battlefield, US President Ronald Reagan announced the "Star Wars" defense system to counter the Soviet threat, which sets the stage for more intense espionage/kidnapping/assassination missions for our Soviet spy-couple. How much longer will Martha be used as pawn in this game between superpowers before she catches on Philip's lies / outlives her usefulness? Will Philip lose even more faith in his loyalty to his motherland?
