Re: What about Paige's life is 'really wierd'?

And I really hope Philip didn't denounce his dad (but it's definitely possible). I don't think Paige is going to get as far as denouncing, though. At least not until the very end of the show, and that would be such a sad way to end!

If I could do one thing that would preserve the state of affairs post-WW2 and yet ease a lot of people's suffering? I'd make Stalin have a heart attack or something in late May, 1945. His successors would almost certainly have refused to continue such an asinine policy.)
