Harry losing his job (possibly) to save Ruth's life, when in series 5 Ruth 'died' to save Harry's job. Beautiful, beautiful. I have to say, I did like that (perhaps unintentional) piece of irony.

Nice ironic parallel there. Hopefully, s10 will make it clear (to Ruth) that what Harry did in giving Albany away is exactly the same thing she did in giving Mani the location of the uranium, and it was for the same reason -- to save someone they cared about. Interesting that in both cases, the "weapon" wasn't viable (Albany was a fake and the uranium wasn't where Ruth said it was).

I hadn't thought about the Uranium parallel! How did i not see it!
Thanks for pointing that one out.
