Ha! That Oleg thing? I normally watch the show without sound because the sound can sometimes seem a bit muffled to me and I'd rather follow the plot.
But anyway I mentioned I'm trying to learn Norwegian, so when I listened to the Oleg clip with sound, they played the scene where he claims to be a "feminist" and I swear to god I thought I heard "Jeg er feminist", which would mean "I am feminist" in Norwegian with an English borrowing. XD
I liked Lev's analysis of Arkady's response to Oleg's behavior, as well.
The Arpanet title! :D Back when I first began reading about the Internet in the 1980s, it was indeed called the Arpanet or NSFnet back then, and Clifford Stoll wrote an excellent story about what can be said to be the first time a major electronic spy ring was busted.
So I'm kind of intrigued at the thought that the KGB might be starting electronic spying in that episode :)
