Question of the week #53

[treonb]

What are three things that you're hoping to see happen in Season 4?

You can expect spoilers for the entire first three 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.)

1) Paige being horrified at whatever the fallout is of her telling Pastor Tim.
(Who has tickets to Africa, which would be a perfect place for an unfortunate 'robbery gone bad' while leaving the Jennings at arm's length.)

btw, Does anyone else wonder whether the Soviets are tapping the Jennings' phones?
Why would they not?? The Rezidentura may know about Paige before P&E do.

2) Henry's reaction to whatever stress bubbles up between Paige and P&E will be interesting. He's both more trusting and devoted to them than Paige is, and seems to me to be very even keeled (as well as oblivious).

You know, people immediately threw out ideas of Paige killing Pastor Tim (which seemed to have nothing to do with the reality of the show to me) but I found myself thinking that I could totally buy a story where Henry killed him.

I mean, this is pure fantasy since there's nothing about the show at this point that sets anything like that up. But Henry does seem very much like Philip and they set up that scene in S1 where he hits that guy with a beer bottle--which is *very* violent--to protect Paige, plus there's the Jared story where an adolescent in emotional distress lost it that way.

So, like, if God told Pastor Tim that he ought to steal the kids and he went and told Henry the truth assuring him that he'd take care of him or whatever? I could easily see that ending in Pastor Tim's death.

Like I said, that's pure fanfic fantasy but I thought of it because I agree, he does seem more devoted to them and despite his being more even-keeled, he seems sometimes more capable of decisive acts that he understands the significance of after, if that makes sense.

I didn't think about it, but you're right. In general P&E always act as though they assume somebody is listening in.

It's hard for me to see the show going this way, but this would put both Paige and Pastor Tim in danger.
