A few questions about things I didn't quite get
Also, did the episode just end with Philip confronting Yusuf and saying he could make all this 'go away', or was there something more?
Finally, have we seen the guy Elizabeth was giving how to tail people lessons to before?
Very good episode apart anyway. The series is back with a bang. I wonder if we'll see much reaction from the characters in the next episode to the death of Brezhnev?

We have never seen Hans (the guy in the car with Elizabeth) before.
I can't remember the exact end of the ep, but we definitely left Philip and Yusef with Philip saying he could help him.

I suppose Hans has to be another KGB agent?
Well, I guess he couldn't be anything else.

That was an odd scene in a way. Elizabeth came across like a rather intense driving instructor.
Which I suppose is what she was.
