Give Claire Danes an Emmy right this minute. What a POWERHOUSE performance. Think what you want of the show overall, the story, etc. Her acting is beyond - BEYOND - the realm of what we consider to be the best acting. The scene where she is asked to share but cries...her cry, her wails, her face, her movements...I had an unreal moment where I cried along with her. It triggered some out of body empathetic response where I went from watching apathetically to having tears and feeling her pain, 0 to 60.

Also shout out to Lizzy Caplan, who has carried the whole show thus far, being consistently compelling in all of her scenes. What great television this episode is!
