1. How Will A.J. Be Welcomed By The Archer Family?
Of course, its not just Archer and Lana who will have to adapt to a new lifestyle with Abijean: what of Sterlings other relations? First and foremost, Malory is now a grandmother, and thats a terrifying prospect in of itself. Lacrosse aside, Sterlings own upbringing looked pretty nightmarish; the spy-to-be suffering years of bullying, neglect, and sadistic torment at the hands of his vindictive mother. For A.J.s sake, heres hoping Woodhouse is available for babysitting duties during her fledgling years. Weve already been given a glimpse of Malorys own child-minding prowess, and her tactics for taking care of Wee Baby Seamus were dubious to say the least. Speaking of, Seamus is apparently going to meet his half-sister at some point during the incoming batch of episodes. Given that Reed's team has been particularly adept at adhering the laws of continuity, by the time Seamus next appears on screen, he will have grown into Wee Toddler Seamus. Reed has commented that Seamus is going to look exactly like a 4-year-old Cyril, and that the two will potentially ride along on one of Archers upcoming missions. How will the tots get on given the bad blood between their respective fathers? They could well defy the doubters and become fast friends, or - much more likely - A.J. will follow in her father's footsteps and immediately go about establishing merciless dominance over Cyril's offspring. And finally theres the big question regarding whether or not the presence of a grandchild will bring Sterlings father back into the fray. Its a secret that has spanned the length of the entire series, but will the true identity of Sterlings father be revealed at long last in Season 6? Well have to wait until next year to find out, but with A.J. on the scene, theres definitely scope for some familial issues to be addressed in full next time we catch up with Sterling and co.
