From early into the series there has been, among many viewers, an anti-Paige feeling. I would ask those well-meaning folks to bear in mind that Paige's so-called training doesn't begin to approach the intensity and thoroughness of that which Elizabeth received back in Mother Russia. And Paige isn't fully aware of the extent of that preparation. Her acutely naive understanding of the spy game can be laid to the enormous amount of information that Elizabeth has withheld from her about the true nature of espionage and the role her mother has played in it over the past 20 years. Philip's little bout with Paige was meant to show her just how easily she can still be overcome. When he held her against the wall, I thought of Season 5, when he snapped the neck of that agriculture lab technician.
Holly Taylor has a look ideal for portraying a naive young woman who largely has been sheltered, hasn't had normal socialization development, and is being sold a bill of goods by Claudia, who is herself a ruthless Communist ideologue. Miss Taylor is capable of displaying effective facial expressions and body language that are in tune with the character she portrays.
Does anyone else out there think the showrunners have made Elizabeth a bit too murderous this season?
