Looking for some great shows to dig into this month? GBH Passport is where you should be looking.

Last week, FDR gave Martha a literal ship, the gang caught Eliza the Spy, and Olav doubled down on trying to become the eponymous main character of the song “Mr. Brightside.” What’s gonna happen this week, in the final episode? Only one way to find out — on with the show!

Last week, we found out that Eliza the Massage Therapist was actually Eliza the Nazi Spy this whole time. All that to say, this sh*t just got real. No, it’s not Bad Boys II, but Martha sure is doing stuff that makes me need to say woosah!

A foreign princess? Who may or may not have had a spicy emotional affair with FDR? Ooh, la la.

On Atlantic Crossing, some scenes are clearly entirely fictional because the screenwriters had to fill in the gaps. Episode 5 had several of these scenes, but what caught the eyes of some viewers is that in both cases, these scenes featured Black characters which the camera focused on, but who did not speak enough to introduce themselves. The first instance was during the dinner before the Lend-Lease program vote. Although the camera focuses on one Black man who is in favor of the program, he is only identified as a Congressman much later in the scene. Later on in the episode, an unnamed Black woman is shocked by Eleanor Roosevelt and Crown Princess Märtha’s public speaking practice.

At an unnamed military base, a pair of young soldiers are learning how to use radar. But their normal lesson is interrupted by a super weird reading. Should they call it in? After some debate (they’re technically off duty) they do, only to have their commanding officer tell them to just ignore it. THAT turns out to be a mistake, because (as some of you history buffs might have expected), it’s December 7, 1941, and these guys are stationed at Pearl Harbor.

Well, if you thought people were grumpy about FDR’s sneaky loophole to help the Allied powers at the end of last week’s episode, they’re even MORE upset this week. Protesters gather outside the White House, chanting “keep America out of the war.” Inside, Eleanor takes this opportunity to drop a very pointed “I told you so” at her husband’s feet. FDR, however, is undeterred. After all, if the act passes, it’ll mean new jobs. And if there’s one thing we love here in America, it’s jobs.

We’re starting the week off with a monologue from the one and only FDR. While he prepares for the day with a morning swim, we get a voiceover about how he has big dreams, which are challenged by world events. He goes on to say that World War II is an inevitability, no matter how much everyone wishes that wasn’t the case, but America will NOT be joining the fight. This monologue, by the way, seems to be drawn from both a speech FDR gave in Chautauqua, NY in 1936 and a campaign speech in 1940, which is a pretty cool screenwriting choice. Regardless, it’s probably not the message any of the Allied powers (including our Norwegian friends) are eager to hear.
