Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaRussian President Viktor Petrov is a clear nod to President Vladimir Putin, from his looks, cold demeanor, thug-like appearance to his anti-gay laws and even the initials VP. This is unlike other characters of the series, who are mostly based on the characters of the 1990 BBC's Mini-Series. Another nod to the reality can be Francis' program "Amworks", which bears close resemblance, in Congress resistance, presidential insistence and controversy, to the "Obamacare" program.
- Goofs"The heat never worked", says Russian president Petrov about LADA cars. Actually, the heater is one of the few things on a Lada that usually works very reliably and effectively.

Featured review
Cringeworthy
I can't believe that such high quality show fell so low. Most cliche representation of Russians. No matter how much you don't like Russian politics, this episode was petty and beyond unrealistic. I had to skip this episode because my brain couldn't handle such cheep writing.
