What are you talking about? Those are great! Plus which, they're married now.

The whole Martha storyline is based on the fact that KGB illegals actually married unsuspecting secretaries who had access to important intelligence because of the men they worked for. These marriages sometimes lasted for decades without the women knowing they were married to spies. You probably thought we made this stuff up.

There's no ratio per se, but boy do we like it when the wigs appear. We just found out that Keri thinks she looks like a boy in her wigs.

We plot out some, but a lot of it unfolds as we create the scene work and the story arcs. Sometimes, we have a very specific backstory in mind, but then in a specific episode we actually change the backstory if we can to accommodate something that's happening.

The problem is, it probably looks like we're typing this, so it makes no sense. But actually Derek is at the keyboard. Once you're a showrunner, you don't have to do your own typing anymore.
