While watching the show, I thought Philip read too much into what Stan said. The fact that the FBI suspect Martha NOW does not mean that they suspected her a week ago, before she pulled her disappearing trick.
Philip is right - the FBI did suspect Martha, or rather, Stan did, though I wonder if things could have gone differently. Stan could not convince Aderholt that there was a problem, as much as Aderholt was an expert in illegals. He was mostly digging on his own.
What could Philip or Martha have done to allay Stan's suspicions? Would it have helped if the KGB would have stopped using her after Gene's murder?
