'Pan Am': Blame it on Rio

pan-am-1030-abc.jpgAnother week comes and goes, and "Pan Am" offers all the intrigue and mystery of a SkyMall catalog. But for those interested in the weekly ongoings of 1963's favorite stewardesses, we have a recap for you.

This week's adventures takes the crew sans Kate (we'll get to her later) to Rio for a couple days of sun and fun. The trip goes horribly awry when Maggie (Christina Ricci) and Laura (Margot Robbie) get arrested for buying stolen merchandise from a street vendor. This lands the two in a Brazilian jail for a good portion of the episode. While in the clink, Maggie has a chance to reflect on the life decisions that landed her in this predicament. It's not the most compelling of a back story, but at least her character now has a bit of depth. We're also exposed to a nefarious side of Maggie as she must engage in underhandedness to keep her job.

While everyone else is off gallivanting, Kate (Kelli Garner) stays in New York and begins spying on her Yugoslavian diplomat boyfriend Nico Lanza (Goran Visnjic). The CIA wants to know more about this gentleman and Kate has the access. While the Feds are first coy about their motivations, they ultimately reveal they think they can turn him into a U.S. operative. Kate is understandably apprehensive about it, but the previews indicate she has a change of heart on the matter.

Dean (Mike Vogel) and Ginny's (Erin Cummings) semi-torrid affair takes a brief pause while she's busy playing the role of mistress to a Pan Am Vice President. This draws disappointment from Dean who feels he's ultimately going get the short end of the stick. But we later find out that she's in love (after just a few dates?!) with Dean. As for how he'll react to this news, we'll have to wait until next week.

You're now free to move about the cabin.
