PONIES

Second Hand News – Season 1, episode 1

In 1977 Moscow, two “PONIES” (“persons of no interest” in intelligence speak) work anonymously as secretaries in the American Embassy. That is, until their husbands die under mysterious circumstances in the Soviet Union, forcing them to take on active roles in the CIA. Bea Grant (Emilia Clarke) is sharp, over-educated, and fluent in Russian. She is a child of Russian immigrants, trying to make sense of a life that hasn’t turned out the way she expected. Twila Hasbeck (Haley Lu Richardson) is a small-town firecracker: abrasive, bold, and more fearless than she should be. Thrown together by grief and circumstance, the two dig into the vast conspiracy their husbands were killed for.
