Question of the week #41

[treonb]

The Church and Pastor Tim seem to serve as additional parental figures for Paige--parental figures that provide a more unambiguously black-and-white, worldview than her real parents can. We also know that Philip and Elizabeth will soon be asked to tell Paige the truth about their jobs and their lives in the U.S.

Do you think Paige might confide in her pastor if her parents try to bring her in?  What do you think she would tell him?

You can expect spoilers for the entire first two seasons in the comments.

(There's no expiration date on these questions, so if you're reading this post months later and feel like jumping in, please do.)

I'd agree too that she wouldn't tell him about the real situation, but she might still turn to him/the church community for emotional support. Finding out her parents aren't who she thinks they are might make their role as an alternative family more important to her -- if she feels like her real parents are strangers to her or she can't trust them.
