Trivia
The song "Under Pressure" by David Bowie and Freddie Mercury is used. The rights to the song were obtained from Bowie only two days before his death in January 2016, making this one of the very last clearances he granted in his lifetime; he allowed the filmmakers to use the song because he was a fan of the series.

Goofs
Henry says that his friend has The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975) on video. That movie wasn't released on video in the U.S. until 1990. However, it's been established that the DC FBI office has a collection of confiscated bootleg VHS tapes of current-run movies.

Connections
References The Howdy Doody Show (1947)

Soundtracks

9/10

Strong high pressure episode

Phillip and Elizabeth speak to Pastor Tim, whilst surveillance increases around Martha.

This is another very strong episode in which the amount of tension created actually gave me a headache.

The plot is focused on the situations with Paige and Martha, but the brutal event of the previous episode hangs above everything like a particularly dark nimbostratus cloud. Everything that happens in relation to the above characters contains heightened sense of danger. Thank god for characters like Henry and the recently introduced Young-Hee Seong who are the rays of sunlight that break through the clouds and give us the necessary relief in the midst of so much pressure.....

'Pressure.... pushing down on me, pressing down on you.....' Great soundtrack as always on this episode, the visuals and general production values are great.

All performances continue to be top drawer, particularly Boris Krutonog, Noah Emmerich and Alison Wright.

For me it's an 8.5/10 but I round upwards
