Russia has found its new dictator.
Remember last week when I said Craig Sterling is going to be a problem?
Im not one to use Wikipedia, but after ourMadam Secretarywas labeled a Rusalka, I was interested.

Clearly an important phrase for the episode, so a little history lesson seemed necessary.
What does President Ostrovs death mean for America?
This is the question the entire episodes revolves around, and there are two sides to this argument.
Its Elizabeth McCord vs. Craig Sterling, and the gloves are off.
Seems like a solid McCord plan, right?
Its pretty much Elizabeths best bet if she wants to stay in Daltons inner circle.
Otherwise, Craig Sterling wins, and Craig Sterling is the worst.
The protester turns out to be a Russian operative planted there to make America look bad.
The big question: Whos behind it all?
The new Ostrov leader sends this message to America: Russia is not afraid of you.
NEXT: Poor Dmitri
Ugh, I cant help but feel completely awful for Dmitri.
Every episode he has to continue to betray Russia makes me feel worse for him.
Its also hard to tell just how bad Henry McCord feels about the whole situation.
This struggle between good and evil seems to be something thats going to continue throughout the season.
I just hope Henrys good side can outweigh the bad one.
So what happened to poor Dmitri today?
He doesnt even get a chance to mourn his president before he has to betray them.
Does he get any usable information?
No, but he did learn one important lesson: Ladies like a bulky man.
Um, okay then.
Except, the DIA is simply testing him.
Dmitri passes the test but is feeling more and more powerless throughout the episode.
I have a strong suspicion this partnership will not end well.
Anyone agree with that?
