Director Stefan Schwartz, who also helmed the Season 4 episode that saw the execution of Nina Sergeevna, says he wanted a "cold and simple" approach to shooting last night's memorable scene. “In this moment, we see the brutal truth that Philip is faced with, and the toll it takes on him — and on Elizabeth, too," he says. "Because she sees what he’s going through and appreciates what he’s prepared to do for her. They become closer because of it.”
