What does Martha really think about Philip?  How far would she be willing to go to protect herself, from both Philip and the FBI?

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.)

I agree with SisterMagpie that Martha will now wonder about the whole fake family with Jennifer and Clark's mother. That could be fascinating drama.

Personally, I think she may be willing to go to any lengths to protect Clark and their relationship. She is a lonely, sad woman who found a man to bang her. But will "Clark" still be willing to bang her after the reveal?

"She is a lonely, sad woman who found a man to bang her."

Wow. That's harsh. I don't find her lonely or sad at all. Well, lonely only in the sense that she doesn't have a huge social life outside of work. But that always seemed more like self-containment than unwanted solitude. She's also not very sad in the sense of being desperate or clingy. She is sad in the original sense of having been deceived and lied to for so long, and feeling that she has nowhere else to go but back home.

I don't think she wants to "bang him", to be honest. She must be wondering what other parts of their life together has been a lie, including the sex.

Is there any reason Clark wouldn't be willing after the reveal? His whole presentation to her is that loves her, loves her enough to show her what he looks like. He's really just altered the lie a bit--instead of being the CIA employee who fell in love with her against orders now he's an employee of...other people...who fell in love with her against orders.

I don't actually think finding a guy was that difficult for Martha. She had two guys who wanted her in season one--Amador wanted her back.
