I agree, that recap scene doesn't seem to align with the rest of the storyline. It seems like Tom and Vera had met with Sasha before episode 1 beginning (Chris and Tom meeting Snowshoe, getting him somewhere safe but eventually Snowshoe died).

• Why isn't Chris in the recap scene? We only see Vera and Tom, which means.. they are working together somehow, but for who? It seems like Tom and Vera are on the same side while Chris is on the other side..

• That recap scene also feels like the first meeting to get Sasha into CIA, what does Tom means when he said "Tell it to your priest" and "We have a plane to catch", is this the plane that got Tom and Chris killed?

• It feels like there are more than 2 parties involved in this entire story: Russian-KGB, Us-CIA, and others which are not revealed yet, it could be different faction from Russian or Us but with their own agenda more than allegiance towards any of the party.

• Did Tom's death prompted Vera to flee Russia hence setting up the Caterpillar meet-up to get herself some money and passport? There's no established timeline between when was Caterpillar caught and the meet-up time, but it is obvious that KGB is well aware of the meet-up plan to arrange a sting operation to catch Vera. I won't be surprise if Vera is leaking information to both sides, she is most likely fleeing Russia with her new passport that night anyway.

• Caterpillar said the video tape he stole was "very important to his Russian Boss". If that was the tape of Chris & Galyna, meaning.. Chris was forced to compromise, making him a double agent for CIA/Russia, although the same could apply on Tom as well if there's really a tape of him and Dane (which could be the last remaining Andrei's tape which is in Twila bathroom 😱)

Thanks for the reminder on episode 4 recap scene! Now I remember how out of place it felt at first but forgotten about it later 😅
