Unfortunately, the conclusion of the Tuan subplot is a tiny part of this episode. The rest is a typical Americans episode, poking a handful of random subplots forward an inch at a time. Paige feels marginally better about her parents being KGB, again. Philip smokes pot with that teenager again and they talk about nothing, again. Why do I even bother?
