Fun fact:

The Agency hired the actor Nasser Memarzia to reprise his role of Popeye’s dad that he played earlier in The Bureau.

New show with cool logo but no shirts, mugs, hats? Why not?

I love “…because I’m here… I’m in control.”

Badass delivery. Only wish it could have been Viking, not Nils, in that chair.

Another nit but interested to learn if there’s a reason I’m not seeing:

Martian surprises Nils at Clinic, then in VERY NEXT scene, Martian is with Nils at Nils’ apartment, explaining the op and next steps, (and presumably installing the OTG surveillance before Nils arrived).

So why go through the elaborate (though cool to watch) deception at clinic if Martian could threaten Nils more privately, and with less fuss at Nils’ own apartment?

Love this show, it is excellent. Small nit though:

after how careful/smart Viking is, and given he already suspects Martian to be CIA rat, is it likely he just accepts the presence of a timer clock without inspection?

Especially given how close he will be to it? At best it could have GPS, at worst, well…

Just seems obviously unlikely, given his suspicious characterization so far.

Both options would be under video and grandparent surveillance, so I’m not sure apartment was easier to infiltrate? Although Martian was already in the apartment and is familiar with it.

Blair said Martian planned this choice, but I don’t know why? And Owen asked the room about it, so the show called it out as strange for some reason?
