"The Litvinov Ruse" kept viewers on its feet with its classic Homeland surveillance approach to Allison's desperate escape... an escape that just might've turned into a victory for the traitorous agent.

Allison is a stellar, complicated character, who has elevated a generally small-scale season into a surprisingly compelling human drama.
