unknown.
Moscow, 1977. Two "PONIES" ("persons of no interest" in intelligence speak) work anonymously as secretaries in the American Embassy. That is until their husbands are killed under mysterious circumstances in the USSR, and the pair become CIA operatives. Bea is an over-educated, Russian-speaking child of Soviet immigrants. Her cohort, Twila, is a small-town girl who is as abrasive as she is fearless. Together, they work to uncover a vast Cold War conspiracy and solve the mystery that made them widows in the first place.
After their lives are upended by tragedy in late 1970s Moscow, two CIA wives are thrust into a shadowy new world as they begin their journey as undercover operatives in the Soviet Union.
Bea and Twila begin their official training. Bea becomes a handler for a Soviet technician named Sasha and attracts the attention of a dangerous KGB officer, Andrei. Meanwhile, Twila's assignment to entertain a businessman leads her to uncover a much deeper conspiracy.
Bea strengthens her cover on a date with Andrei; Twila dives into an off-the-books investigation of a string of sex worker murders.
Twila runs her first asset, a Russian fixer named Vera who holds secrets regarding the deaths of their husbands. As Bea's bond with her asset Sasha grows, she faces increasing danger.
In a bold and risky move, Bea enlists an unlikely ally to pose as Vera. However, what initially seems like a victory for the mission may actually be a trap set by their adversaries.
As dark truths about her late husband surface, Bea struggles to maintain her cover with the dangerous KGB officer Andrei. Meanwhile, Twila goes undercover at a local hotel to gather further intelligence.
A high-stakes stakeout across Moscow pushes both Bea and Twila to their physical and emotional limits. Their investigation finally reveals a devastating truth: there is a mole operating inside the American Embassy.
In the season finale, Manya reunites with an old friend and makes a shocking discovery. As the danger peaks, Bea, Twila, and Sasha are forced to flee the city, finally uncovering the secret behind Andrei's swift rise within the KGB.
