'Counterpart': What you should know about 'The Tin Drum' and its connection with Emily Alpha before the next episode?

Oskar was unreliable in his narration and didn't shy away from leading his reader in an unknown direction, just like Emily Alpha

The fifth episode of  STARZ's 'Counterpart' which aired on December 30 left us with several questions but at the same time, it also hinted towards certain things that might help to decipher what is in store for the sixth episode. Starring J.K. Simmons as Howard Silk, Olivia Williams as Emily Burton Silk, Nazanin Boniadi as  Clare, Harry Lloyd as Peter Quayle and Sara Serraiocco as Baldwin, the fifth episode of the second season dished out a major clue when we witnessed a brief interaction between Emily Alpha and Claude Lambert (played by Guy Burnett) over a book, 'The Tin Drum'.

Günter Grass's 1959 novel revolves around the scandalous story about a boy, Oskar, who embodies almost every characteristic of J. M. Barrie's free-spirited young boy, Peter Pan, who refused to grow up.
