After being missing and presumed dead for eight years, Marine
Sergeant Nicholas Brody is rescued in Iraq, and returns home to his
family. But CIA agent Carrie Anderson suspects he might have been
turned by his terrorist captors, and believes he could be part of a plan
to attack America.
The scene opens in Baghdad where CIA
Operative, Carrie Mathison, is driving
through the city talking to David Estes of
the CIA. He denies her request to be able
to hold off the execution of a known terrorist, Hasan, and says that it is in the
hands of the Iraqi people. She says that
Hasan has Intel that will help them with
the war and David tells her that it is not
going to happen. Carrie meets with a contact who has someone who says that they
can get her inside the prison. She goes
up to Hasan and he doesn’t have any information for her because she can’t save
him. She says that she can save Hasan’s
family if he agrees to help them. The Iraqi guards come in and take Carrie by force. Hasan says
what he knows to her and tells her to keep her promise to save his family.
The scene fast-forwards to ten months later and Carrie goes inside her place and cleans
up. She heads to the CIA and gets in. David is there and he tells that during a sweep in Iraq,
they found an American marine. His name is Nicolas Brody. Carrie leaves to meet up with Saul
Berenson, Middle-East Division Chief. She says that Hasan told her the day she was caught by
the Iraqi soldiers that there was an American soldier who has been turned. Saul asks how she
could be sure. She says that Hasan told her that someone was close to Abu Nazir, the leader

of the terrorist group. She says that she is playing the long game and they need to authorize a
surveillance package and Saul says that he is not going over David’s head. He tells Carrie that
she needs to get proof that the safe house was planted. Meanwhile in Ramstein Air Force Base in
Germany, Nicholas is getting trimmed for his speech. Major Tony Trujillo comes in and welcomes
him. He says that he wants to call his wife.
At the same moment, Jessica Brody is getting ”busy” with another man when she gets a call
from Nicholas. The man asks what her deal is and she walks away. She drives home to find her
son, Chris, playing a game. She goes into her daughter’s, Dana’s room. She finds her smoking
pot with a friend. She tells that she doesn’t know what to do and Chris reminds her of the news
that she had. On a plane, Nicholas is told that in 2 hours, they will be able to be on the ground.
Dana asks Chris if he remembers their dad at all. He says that he doesn’t know. Jessica gets
ready for the reunion and Dana comes in and tells her that she needs to hurry and criticizes her
dress. They get out and Chris tells his mother that she looks nice. As they leave, two men enter
the house. They let Carrie in who asks Virgil, one of the men, who he brought. Virgil says that it
is his brother, Max. She tells them to wire tap every room.
On the plane, Nicholas is vomiting and Major Trujillo tells David that they are going to be a
little delayed for the Vice President. David tells Trujillo to get Nicholas prepared. Nicholas enters
the airport and meets his wife and children for the first time in 8 years. Jessica runs and hugs
him. Dana hugs him too and Chris shakes his hand. Dana tells him to hug Nicholas. The Vice
President meets him and they escort him to a press conference. Carrie watches with suspicion
and Virgil says that Nicholas has game. Max, Virgil’s brother, comes up and asks what a pill that
Carrie keeps in her aspirin bottle. Virgil tells that he doesn’t know what kind of pill it is. After the
speech, Nicholas says that he is driving. Mike Faber comes up and says hello. Mike is the same
man who was getting ”busy” with Jessica. Mike tells Nicholas that he has to go to Germany for
debriefing. Jessica says that he just got there, but Nicholas doesn’t mind. They get home to find
a crowd gathered outside the home. The reporters ask to get a picture with them. They agree.
Carrie calls Saul and says that she needs to get into the debriefing and she says that she will
behave herself. Virgil taps into the surveillance of the Brody house and asks when Carrie wants
to be at the house. She tells him that 8 AM is good. Carrie watches as Jessica gets herself ready
to get ”busy” when their phone rings. No one is on the other end. Jessica asks if Nicholas wants
some wine and she goes up and kisses him. She takes off his shirt and sees that he has scars all
over his body. She cries and he says that it is alright. They kiss and get ”busy”. Carrie watches
on how forceful he is with her. Afterward, she cries.
The next day, Virgil wakes up Carrie and she says that two calls came in and there was no one
on the other end. Carrie takes her pill and gets to the debriefing. The agents talk to Nicholas and
Carrie turns the meeting into an interrogation and asks if he knows who Abu Nazir is. He says
that he never met him. She presses him again and he remembers when he was captured and he
does remember Abu Nazir, but tells that he has never met Abu Nazir. Carrie doesn’t believe him.
David tells her to settle down. Jessica tells the kids that she needs help setting up for tonight’s
barbecue when she gets a call. It is Nicholas and he says that he is stuck in the debriefing.
However, that is a lie. Carrie gets the call that Nicholas is headed to Bomount Park. David goes
up to Saul and asks why Carrie was in the debriefing. David says that it will be bad for both of
them if Carrie messes up. David warns Saul of Carrie.
Carrie, Vigil and Max watch Nicholas as a woman approaches him. It is Helen Walker, the wife
of the other soldier captured in Iraq. She asks what happened to her husband and he says that
he was beaten to death. She asks if Nicholas was there and he lies and says that he wasn’t. Virgil
has Max step out of the van and Virgil brings up the anti-psychotic medication and says that
she has a problem. Carrie says that she is dealing with it alone. Virgil says that this doesn’t look
good for her and Carrie tells that Virgil is already in this. Carrie gets home to find Saul there. He
says that she is going to need to hire an attorney for when she turns herself into the CIA. She
asks if there is anything that she can do and moves in on him. He asks what she is doing and
she freaks out and tries to calm herself down from one of her mood swings.
At Nicholas and Jessica’s house, Mike comes up to Jessica and says that 3 days ago they
were talking about moving in together and says that all she has to do for him to forget it is to
tell that it wasn’t great between them. She tells that Nicholas is her husband. Outside, Nicholas
asks how close Mike is to the family and he says that he is around whenever she needs him. He
suspects something. At a bar, Carrie sits down with a stranger and he asks if Carrie wants to get

the tab. He gets the coats and sees Carrie watching the news report. She sees something going
on with his hand. She goes to Saul’s house and shows him. He says that is something to go off of
and says that it is not much to go off though. Carrie says that he is singling someone. Early the
next morning, Jessica wakes up to find Nicholas gone. Nicholas is running and he remembers
that it was him who killed Helen’s husband according to Abu Nazir’s instructions. The episode

Carrie receives a new piece of electronic evidence from an undercover
agent while staying glued to the surveillance footage of life in Brody’s
home, which reveals a man struggling with his traumatic memories
and resisting pressure to become a media hero.
The scene opens with Nicholas remembering when he was in Baghdad. He has
his friend put in the grave and the terrorists put a gun to his head and pull
the trigger. Nicholas wakes up from the
nightmare and it wakes up Carrie as well.

what happened and she tells that he was
muttering something in Arabic and holding her arm. He apologizes when he sees
the marks. Chris comes downstairs and
tells that the reporters are still out there.

Nicholas tells Dana to tell them that he is
not home. Nicholas says that he will be fine and that Jessica can go to work. After they leave,
Carrie watches him closely. Nicholas remembers when he was in a tight cell. He goes outside and
then goes back inside really quickly and crouches in the corner.
Meanwhile, Saul gets word from the cryptology department and they have found that there is
no distinct pattern, but he says that they need to keep looking. Saul meets with a Judge who
he has in his back pocket. He says that he needs a surveillance warrant. The Judge asks when
Saul will let him off the hook for his mistake and Saul says that this is all about the law. Carrie
finds out that she is out of her anti-psychotic medicine. She calls her sister Maggie and leaves
a message. Saul comes in and tells her that she has a 4 week warrant to watch. He says that
she needs to be careful not to think that he approves of this. She shows that Nicholas has been
crouched in a corner for 5 hours. Saul says that if he had turned, he would be facing the media
by now and playing the ”hero” card. Carrie says that it could be hard for him.
At a hotel, a woman interviews a girl for an Iraqi prince. She asks if she like girls and other
forms of sex. She calls her salon. She says that her name is Lynn Reed and says that she needs

their poster boy for the war. The Commander tells that Mike needs to tell Nicholas that he can get
a package that will save his family and tell him to make it happen. Nicholas cooks breakfast and
Chris asks him what it is like to kill someone. Nicholas freezes and sees a reporter in his yard.
He goes outside and tells the man to get off his property. The reporter doesn’t listen and Nicholas
hits the reporter’s throat. Chris sees the entire things and Nicholas walks into the wood. Carrie
calls Max to find and follow him.
Jessica comes in the kitchen to find the pan burning. She asks where Nicholas is. Nicholas
walks to the mall and Max follows him. Carrie had Virgil come over and watch while she goes
and meets up with an asset. He asks if there is any food and she says that there is yogurt. Carrie
meets with Lynn and she tells that she is in town to interview more girls for the prince’s harem.
She shows that Abu Nazir paid the prince a special visit. She tells Carrie that she doesn’t want
to get caught and Carrie tells her that she won’t let anything happen to her. Mike goes over to
the house and says that he needs to talk to Nicholas. Chris says that Nicholas beat up someone.
Jessica says that she needs to talk to ”Uncle Mike”. They talk and Mike sees the marks and says
that it will be alright. Virgil tries the yogurt to find that it is past its prime. Carrie tells Saul that
she needs more bodies on Nicholas, but Saul tells her that she needs to slow down and that she
has 4 weeks and says that David has career stakes in Nicholas. Carrie asks where Nicholas is
and Max says that he is going to find him. David comes out and tells that Carrie is full on the
prince. She tells that her asset is scared and David says that she is on her own.
Max calls Carrie and tells Carrie that Nicholas is looking at wires, lumber, nails and everything
is getting put in his head. Nicholas looks at carpet too. Carrie gets back with food and Virgil says
that Mike is hoping that Nicholas doesn’t come back. Chris asks if Mike is the boss of his dad.
Dana says that they are having Irish stew and that is their dad’s favorite. Nicholas gets home and
puts something in the garage. They don’t have surveillance in there. Jessica says that they have
all changed and that they need to start over. Jessica says that she didn’t like that he punched a
reporter and he says that he will live. He gets in to find Mike playing Hearts and Nicholas jokes
with them. They sit down and say Grace.
Afterward, Mike offers a cigar and Nicholas asks if he always comes over in uniform. Mike
tells that Nicholas is going to be offered a lot and says that he is not going to take the offers
because he needs the last eight years back and be able to take care of his family and that he was
tortured and tells him to leave. He calls him ”Uncle Mike”. Later, Mike goes into Chris’ room and
apologizes that he saw what he saw and asks if he is going to be alright. Chris says that he is
going to be. Carrie gets comfortable on the couch and watches as Jessica talks to Nicholas about
what the military is offering. However, he is not talking.
The next day, Lynn walks with the prince’s adviser and Virgil spills tea on her blouse. Carrie
tells that there is a device that will fit into the prince’s Blackberry and says that there is a team
protecting Lynn. She gives a compact and they switch them. Later, Carrie goes to Maggie’s place
and greets her nieces out front. Maggie invites her in. Maggie gives Carrie more anti-psychotic
medication and says that she is going to have to show up in a week. Carrie asks how their father
is doing and Maggie says that he is getting the treatment now. She tells that she can’t tell the CIA
and says that she is really good at what she does. The next morning, Nicholas remembers when
he was able to be free from his cell and saw the terrorists praying. He walks out to the garage
and fixes the garage door. He opens it a little bit and lays down a carpet. He begins to pray as a
Muslim. He gets himself cleaned up and dressed in his uniform. He asks the reporters if they are
ready. Carrie calls Saul and tells him that Nicholas is playing the ”hero” card like he predicted.

The political powers that be make big plans for national hero Brody,
but his increasingly erratic behavior threatens his media darling status; Carrie grows desperate for evidence linking Brody with Abu Nazir,
as Saul directs her to focus on Nazir’s money trail.
The scene opens with Carrie watching
the surveillance coverage and watches
Nicholas as he gets ready. Nicolas sees
Abu Zamir in the mirror. Carrie notes
that Nicholas is having hallucinations.
David meets with Ms. Gaines, the Vice
President’s secretary. She tells David that
they need to know if Nicholas is really as
sane as he portrays. Saul comes by and
tells David that they may have found out
how Abu Nazir is funding his organization. They go into a meeting where Carrie
brings up the fact that the Prince’s advisor is the man who made the transfer
of the necklace that was around Lynn’s
neck. She points out that several people have come by for the purchase of the necklace and they
need to get the information before Abu Nazir does. David authorizes the inspection of all the
potential buyers that came into the Laundry mat to talk about the necklace. At the same time,
one of the ”buyers” is having breakfast.
Carrie goes up to Saul and thanks him for not attacking her in the briefing and says that she
would like a longer allowance on the surveillance detail. However, Saul says that he had to pull
teeth to get that first one. He says that she has to take down the surveillance the first chance
they get. Mike drives Nicholas home and Nicholas invites him in. He declines and says that he
is going to grab dinner somewhere else. Nicholas asks why Mike is avoiding them and Mike says
that he wanted to give Nicholas space. Nicholas thanks Mike for taking care of his family and
watching out for Jessica. He says that he would do the same for him. However, Nicholas says
that he doesn’t think that he would. Nicholas goes in the backyard to find Chris and Jessica.
They see a buck in the yard. He says that it is going to ruin her flowers that she planted. Nicholas
goes to the garage and cleans up with a pan in the sink. He remembers when Jessica and he
were happy and younger. He unpacks a gun and cleans it before putting it back.

The next day, Nicholas gets ready to go to church with the family and sees that the flowers
that Jessica planter were squashed by the deer. Jessica says that it is no big deal and that
she will plant a special type of flower. Virgil comes over to Carrie’s and tells her that they need
to go and says that he has to do it because Saul told him that he would get him into trouble.
Meanwhile, the Brody Family is enjoying church, besides Dana. Lizzy Gaines, the Vice President’s
Advisor watches Nicholas closely. At the same moment, Virgil and Max take out the surveillance
detail at the Brody home. Carrie walks around the house looking for anything that they can
use. She goes in the garage, but doesn’t find anything. Virgil comes in and says that they are
leaving. They get inside the house and Max tells Carrie that he left the last camera for her to take
down. She does reluctantly. After church, Lizzy goes up to Nicholas and Mike goes up to Jessica.
Mike tells Jessica that Dana must have said something. Lizzy says that she wants to discuss
something with Nicholas and offers lunch. He accepts. Mike suggests to Jessica to organize a
friendly gathering.
David asks another analyst what he thinks of Carrie. He says that they are friends. David
says that he has the feeling that Carrie is hiding something from him, but doesn’t know what it
is. David offers a position in Cairo if he helps him out. Carrie comes in and says that she was
running late and asks what David wanted. The analyst lies and says that it is nothing. He shows
a picture of Rakim, the man who bought the house with his wife. Later that evening, Jessica tells
Nicholas that she is inviting Mike to the party as well. He says that it is fine. Outside, Carrie is
on stakeout and watches the reactions to what Jessica is portraying. The analyst calls and says
that Rakim made several trips to an Afghan country. She tells him that he needs to follow up on
the information and they will meet up tomorrow. Jessica goes into Dana’s room and asks if she
told her father about her and Mike. She says that she didn’t and asks what is wrong. She says
that it is nothing. Dana asks if she and Nicholas are getting a divorce and Jessica tells that they
are not. Dana says that she is cool with it. She tells that Chris doesn’t think so.
The next day, the analyst is with Carrie on stakeout and asks about Carrie’s brief affair with
David. They watch as Rakim gets into his car and they follow him. However, Rakim’s wife gets
a call telling her to tell Rakim not to go home. She runs up stairs and puts an American Flag
out. This is the signal. He drives off and later at the bar, Carrie, the analyst, and David meet for
drinks and Carrie tells him that they followed Rakim, but nothing. David wants to know what
happened with them and says that he wants to apologize. She says that she didn’t know the
marriage that David had was going to end. He says that it doesn’t matter. Meanwhile, the party
is underway and Jessica talks about their husbands and how the sex is non-existent. Mike gets
there and introduces Demmy, a woman he picked up last minute. Nicholas is in the garage and
sees Mike talking to Jessica. He sees Jessica rub Mike’s arm and puts together the pistol.
Mike walks out to the garage and inside, Jessica and everyone hears two shots. They go out
to find that Nicholas shot the deer. Mike tells Nicholas to give him the gun. Nicholas tells him to
back up. Jessica asks what Nicholas’ problem is and says that he can’t even have sex with her
and says that they need help. She tells that he better talk to someone or she can’t do this. Carrie
goes home and picks up things. Back at Rakim’s house, his wife tells him that he is going to
have to go back to work like before. Carrie exes off Rakim from the list and they move on to the
next suspect. Saul comes in and Carrie says that she needs people on Nicholas and says Saul
tells her that there is too much heat on him right now. She agrees, but later that night, Carrie
sneaks out. Nicholas goes up to Jessica and tells that there is a Veteran Support Group meeting.
She thanks him and he leaves. Carries is outside the house and follows him close behind.
She follows him to the Center and Nicholas tries to make himself comfortable. She goes inside
and pretends to bump into him. She tells him that she shouldn’t be there and leaves. Nicholas
follows her behind and asks what the problem is and says that she can never go inside there
because she can’t ever tell what she does as a living. Nicholas asks why is it so hard to talk about
the people who weren’t there and Carrie says that she agrees that he is right. It starts to pour
and Nicholas says that he might not make it to the second or third meeting of the group and
Carrie realizes that she has snagged him.

David and Saul wait as Afzal is escorted off the plane and but into the back of a van. Nicholas
gets taken to the ”safe house”. Carrie is there already and welcomes him. She tells him that they
met at the debrief a few weeks ago. He lies and plays along. Nicholas recognizes Afzal as the man
who urinated on him while he was being held as his guard. Saul goes in and greets him. He sits
down with him and stares at him. Nicholas asks what he is doing and Carrie says that he is
waiting for Afzal to talk, but he doesn’t. Nicholas puts on headphones to communicate with Saul.
He tells him what Afzal beat him and urinated on him. Saul mentions Afzal’s family and tells him
that Abu Nazir is not going to be nice to them. He puts down a crayon and paper and tells him
to write down what he knows before it is too late. Carrie says that is all they need of Nicholas
and he asks if he can go talk to him and Carrie says that they can’t allow him to do that. David
says that they did a good job. Carrie says that Nicholas stopped breathing for a little when Saul
turned over the picture of Abu Nazir. He says that she needs to pace herself.
That night, Jessica comes out with a new, shorter hairstyle. She says that she wanted to
thank him for going to the support meeting and offers him tea. She asks what the meeting was
about and Nicholas says that he can’t talk about it. Meanwhile, after a while of deafening music
to keep Afzal awake and playing on his nerves, Afzal picks up the crayon and begins to write.
Saul comes in and reads what he wrote. Carrie says that they need a sign of good faith and he
says that he doesn’t know anything, but when Saul tells him to say goodbye to his family, he
writes down an email address and says that he sends things that are sent to him to someone
else. Carrie whispers and asks about Nicholas. Afzal says that they need to protect his family and
then they will talk. Meanwhile, Nicholas goes into David’s office and tells him that he has earned
a moment to be with his torturer. However, David says that they don’t have the authorization.
Nicholas says that he just wants to tell him that the tables are turned. David feels bad and calls
up someone. He tells him that he will have that chance.
Carrie gets the tech guy to track the email address and they realize that the email gets sent
to Rakim Fizell, the man who they believed was a terrorist from the start. At the same moment,
Nicholas gets escorted into the ”safe house”. Carrie calls Virgil and tells him that they need to go
check out Brighton University. Nicholas sits down with Afzal and tells him that he didn’t break
him and says that he is a Sergeant now. Afzal spits his food on Nicholas and they fight. They
break it up and escort him out of the room. Virgil and Max go to Brighton University and they
get the address to Rakim. Nicholas gets home to find Chris with his new belt and Mike is there.
Mike says that he better go and Nicholas asks if Jessica told ”Uncle Mike” to take him. Mike says
that Nicholas should be proud and he reminds him that he is leaving.
Carrie, Virgil and Max watch surveillance at the Fizell home when Saul calls and says that
Afzal is dead from suicide. He says that there is a razor blade fragment and says that they must
have missed it. However, Carrie says that they went through everything. Carrie says that she
needs authorization and Saul gives his authorization. They move in to find that Rakim and his
wife are gone and that they packed up in a hurry. Saul sits down and speaks Arabic. He gets
home to find Mira on the sofa. He says that he is sorry and says that it has been a long day
for him. She has Saul sit down and says that she has been doing some thinking about their
marriage. Carrie comes over and shows Saul that Nicholas was allowed to go in and talk to Afzal.
However, Saul tells her that they have no evidence that Nicholas passed a razor to him because
they can’t see him in the video because he found the only blind spot in the video footage. She
tells Saul that he doesn’t care about the work and throws her hands up. She gets back to her
office at work and takes down everything. She starts to panic.
She goes over to Maggie’s in tears. She tells that she thinks that she just quit her job and
Maggie tells her to calm herself down. Carrie says that she feels that she is on her own and has
been for a while. Maggie says that Carrie is going to stay with her until she can get her head
strait. She gives her the blankets and her nieces come in and ask if they can sleep in there.
She agrees and they snuggle up. Nicholas goes into Chris’ room and apologizes for missing his
ceremony and says that he messed up. Chris forgives him for it. Nicholas asks Chris what he
prayed for while he was away and he says that they prayed that he was alive and now that he
will be alright. Later that night, Carrie wakes up and one of the nieces wakes up too. Carrie tells
her that she can’t sleep and that she can get back to bed. She tells her to live with them and
says that they will protect her. Carrie says that it is her job to protect them. She goes to the end
of the stairs and sits down.

Reeling after losing key players in Nazir’s plot against America, the
CIA orders polygraphs on everyone who came in contact with them,
including Brody, which Carrie sees as an opportunity to finally learn
the truth.
The scene opens with Carrie at work.
She is reviewing the tape of Nicholas
and Afzul. The Head of the division is in
David’s office and he asks how the razor
blade got to his possession. Carrie comes
in and suggests that they polygraph everyone who was in contact with Afzul and
deal with it there. The Head of the division says for that to happen and David
is upset that Carrie didn’t tell him in private. He yells for her to get the polygraph
set up then. Outside his office, Carrie
says that David was a little harsh, but
Saul tells her that she deserved it. He
asks her if she wants him to forget about
what happened and she says that she was hoping so. Meanwhile, Nicholas gets ready for a
memorial service for Thomas Walker. Jessica gets in and tells Nicholas that she isn’t looking
forward to seeing Helen, the wife of Thomas, because of the fact that she treated her bad when
Helen got remarried. She goes up to Nicholas and adjusts his tie. She tells him that he looks very
handsome.
Carrie goes in for her polygraph and when asked if she took narcotics since working for the
CIA, she lies and says that she has not. The machine picks it up. She goes out of the room
and David goes in without saying a word. He takes the test and makes it very clear that he is
upset. Meanwhile, Saul goes up to an operative and asks what the neighbors are saying. He says
that the interviews are in progress. Saul sees a woman come out of her house and he goes up
to her. He asks her what she thought of the neighbors. She says that they kept to themselves.
Saul is confused and asks who the other person was. She says that it was the wife of Rakim.
On the road, Rakim asks what happened and Rakim’s wife says that someone must have found
15

out and that they were instructed to go to a house and wait for instructions. She apologizes for
dragging him into this. He says that it is alright. Later at the memorial, Nicholas gives his speech
to remember Tom Walker, but stands at attention and has all the people who served with them
stand up. He repeats Tom’s name and everyone is moved. Afterward, Carrie goes up to him and
tells him that the CIA needs him to take a polygraph. He says that he can come in tomorrow.
Saul goes up to David in his office and tells him that Rakim has a woman with him. He also
asks David if he could be activated into the field again. He says that Mira has been called back
to India and thought that it best that he go with her. David says that he will take it up the chain.
Carrie and Saul have the team find Rakim and his wife. Meanwhile, Rakim and his wife arrive at
the ”safe house” and they go around and inspect the grounds. However, they see that it is rigged
with explosives and they get out of there quickly. A car is parked, watching their every move. She
tells him that she knows this because she was trained. At the after party at Nicholas’ house, the
Marines have fun rapping and drinking. Jessica goes up to Karen and tells her that she is sorry
that she gave her so much hate when she got remarried. She says that she understands. The
other Marines ask Nicholas what happened and he tells them that they were hit and that it was
like someone tipped them off. However, one of the Marines stands up and tells Nicholas that he
is a liar. He then says that everyone wanted to sleep with his wife. And only one of them actually
did. Mike punches him and then Nicholas grabs Mike and punches him right in front of Jessica.
He says that he thought that he was his friend and then drives away.
At the CIA, Carrie tells the rest of the team that the wife of Rakim is Eileen Morgan, a woman
with a past of terrorist activity. Saul gets called in for his polygraph and he is against it. They
strap him up and he is nervous and anxious. He says that he wants to get back to work. The
guy giving the polygraph asks if he was the one who slipped Afzul the razor blade and Saul says
that he didn’t. The machine shows that he is lying and the guy plays it off as being too anxious.
Saul leaves and says that they will resume the test tomorrow. He gets back inside and they find
out that Rakim and Eileen met in Saudi Arabia and Saul suggests that it is getting hairy for an
amateur. Carrie suggests that they have it backwards and says that Eileen is the terrorist. Carrie
gets a call from Nicholas and he says that he can’t take the test because he is a mess. Carrie
goes to the bar where he is and they talk about what he did. Nicholas admits punching his best
friend. He asks if Carrie has been married before and she says that she never did. He asks her
why she pretended never meeting him and she says that she has to be secret.
Later that night, they walk out to their cars and Carrie says that she drank too much. She
says that she won’t puke because she is Irish. She tells Nicholas that Afzul is dead and that is
why the CIA wants Nicholas in. They kiss and then go in the backseat of Carries car. They kiss
more and then ”get busy”. Meanwhile in a hotel room, Eileen is trying to calm down by watching
a singing competition. Rakim is not calm and she tells him that they can’t turn themselves in
because then they would just be interrogated like the men and woman from Guantanamo Bay.
She goes to the bathroom and suddenly there is gunfire. Rakim is killed and Eileen manages to
escape. Saul gets home to find Mira awake. He tells her that he is going to be able to come with
her. However, she breaks it to him that she doesn’t want him to go with her. He is devastated.
The next day, Nicholas gets home to find Jessica and the kids going off to school. He tells Dana
to have a good day at school, but she hints that is not where they are going.
Saul resumes the polygraph and when asked if he is married, he says that he doesn’t know.
He is asked again if he gave Afzul the razor blade and he says that he didn’t. The machine doesn’t
pick up anything. Nicholas is brought in and she says that this is what they have been waiting
for. Nicholas comes in and with everything; the machine is not picking up anything. Carrie is
coaching the man giving the polygraph and he still can’t catch him in a lie. Carrie asks if he has
been unfaithful to his wife. Nicholas lies and says that he hasn’t. Carrie knows that he is lying,
but doesn’t tell him how she knows this. Later, Carrie goes out to her car and Nicholas pulls up
and tells her to get into the car.

Jessica face the fallout of the truth about their relationship, and Saul
catches Aileen on the run to Mexico.

when the next bus goes to Mexico and
when. The ticket agent asks her where
she wants to go and she tells her that
she doesn’t care. Meanwhile, Carrie and
Nicholas drive and Nicholas asks why she
got into his car. She tells him that she
wanted to. She asks Nicholas what type
of bar they are going to. Nicholas says
that he likes Dive Bars. They get there
and start playing pool. Nicholas walks off
and a guy with an 88 tattoo walks up to
Carrie. He suggests her to go with him instead of hanging out with Nicholas. She
jokes with the guy and says that 88 stands for Ariean Pride. Nicholas comes up and asks if there
is a problem. The man says that Carrie isn’t keeping her mouth shut. He goes to hit her, but
is blocked by Nicholas and is taken down. Nicholas and Carrie get out of there and drive away.
Carrie mentions a cabin that her family has and they drive to it.
Dana and Chris are getting their haircut by Jessica. When it is Dana’s turn, she asks about
Nicholas. Jessica says that he is taking the weekend off. She asks if he found out about Mike
and Jessica says that he did. David and Saul meet and Saul tells him that they got a lead on the
runaway terrorist. She says that Eileen showed up in Beaumont, Texas. Saul suggests that he go
and meet her in Mexico when they bring her in. Nicholas and Carrie get to the cabin and Carrie
calls Maggie and asks her where the key is to the cabin. She tells Carrie that she has to come
to the house so that she can pick up her medication. She tells her that she will come back from
the cabin on Sunday. Maggie asks who she is with and Carrie lies and says that she is alone.
She tells her the location of the key and Carrie goes inside the house. Once inside, she goes into

been thinking about her a lot. They kiss and get ”busy”.
In Mexico, Eileen is caught by the Federalies. Saul offers to take her into custody. In the
car, Saul tells her that they are going to Virginia where he is going to hand her over to the FBI.
He offers her to talk to him. Back at the cabin the next morning, Nicholas meets Carrie on the
dock. Carrie tells Nicholas that she and her sister used to come out all the time and used to go
exploring. Meanwhile, Saul talks more to Eileen and tells her that she is safer with him than she
has been in two days. He asks her about the plan and she tells him that he can’t help her. Saul
speaks Arabic to her and tells her that he knows about the life that she lived. She tells him that
he doesn’t know her. Back at the cabin, Nicholas and Carrie go hiking and they talk about their
time in Baghdad. She tells Nicholas that she lost her translator and says that a mob got crazy.
Nicholas says that it is nice to talk to someone who can understand him. She agrees that she
has found peace as well. Nicholas leans in and asks if they are going to try doing it sober, but
Carrie changes the subject.
At Nicholas’ house, Dana has her friends over and they are smoking marijuana and drinking
beer. Dana’s friends say that they are going and she protests. She falls through the glass door.
She looks at her arm, which is cut up and says that she didn’t feel anything. Saul and Eileen
stop for dinner and he asks her more about what she knows and says that he has been in touch
with her father. She tells him that she hasn’t. Saul says that her family is worried about her, but
Eileen says that they are only worried what their friends will think of them after knowing that
their daughter is a terrorist. Saul tells her that he knows that she was isolated and that is why
she found Rakim. She tells him that there was something good there until her father found her
with Rakim. Jessica gets home from the hospital and Mike is there. He asks if Jessica is alright
and she tells him that things are complicated and doesn’t know how things got out of control.
They kiss and then Jessica is called into Chris’ room. Dana comes out and says that Mike needs
to stay away from their family.
At the cabin, Carrie and Nicholas make dinner and Carrie says that she is thirsty. They skip
dinner and start to get ”busy”. Carrie looks at Nicholas’ scars. Nicholas pauses for a moment and
says that he wants to live in the moment just a while longer. Later that night, Nicholas has and
shouts out the name ”Isa”. Carrie tells him that it is alright and tells him that he is with her.
Saul drives Eileen to his old home and tells her about his life growing up. She agrees with him
on the fact that parents mess their kids up. Saul tells her that he knows that she moved her way
out for Rakim and for love. Carrie is woken up by Nicholas and she tells him that they don’t have
Nicholas’ favorite tea there. He asks her how she knows at what tea he drinks. She stumbles and
says that it was probably what he had at the CIA. She goes out to get some firewood.
Saul drives with Eileen and she asks what problems he is having at home. He says that his
wife is walking out. She asks what happened to Rakim’s body and Saul tells her that if no one
claims Rakim, then he will be buried in a potter’s field. Saul says that she has a deal with Eileen.
She says that someone needs to be on the roof of the house and says that Eileen is sitting with a
sketch artist. Carrie gets back and Nicholas tells her that he knows that she has been following
him and spying. She says that she has suspicions that he is a terrorist. He says that he isn’t and
says that she can ask him whatever she wants. She asks him what he does in his garage. He
admits that he prays. Carrie is shocked that he is Muslim. She asks how Walker died. Nicholas
admits that he was instructed to kill him. He says that he lied meeting Abu Nazir because he
offered his hand and he took it. He says that he loved him for it too.
Meanwhile, Gomez is on the roof and he says that he isn’t seeing anything special. David is
talking to him and tells him to look harder. Gomez sees an airport and that Marine One helipad
is their target that they are looking at. Saul asks for Nicholas’ picture so that Eileen can look
at it. Back at the cabin, Nicholas tells Carrie that he is leaving. Saul calls Carrie and tells her
that they were wrong about Nicholas. An American POW was turned and it was Walker and not
Nicholas. Carrie tells Nicholas that she is sorry and says that their time was real, but he leaves
her at the cabin. Later that night, Nicholas gets into his house and checks on his family. He goes
out into the living room and cries.

After his attempt to sever ties with Abu Nazir, Brody finds himself reliving his captivity and recommits to his mission; Carrie finds herself in
the middle of a public relations nightmare on the heels of the mosque
shooting.
The scene opens with Nicholas at the grocery store. He calls and leaves a message for Jessica about the grocery list.
Back at the house, Dana can’t believe
that Tom Walker is alive. Back at the
store, Nicholas asks the cashier about the
list and she recognizes him as the ”war
hero”. As Nicholas gets to his car, he is
attacked by two men. They kick him and
beat him with a crow bar and then inject
him with a sedative. Meanwhile, Carrie
goes up to the Masque and Hall, from the
FBI, comes up and Carrie says that she
wanted to talk to the lead on the team.
Carrie says that the leader of the Masque
tells that none of the men knew Walker, but Hall points out that Walker knows the Masque well.
At the same moment, Walker is walking through a forest.
The leader of the Masque comes up and she tells him that she is sorry about the deaths.
Galvez tells that he is Muslim too and they tell him that Walker needs to be caught. Carrie brings
up that Walker knew the way around the building. He says that if the FBI tells the truth, he will
say something. Carrie tells Galvez that the leader of the Masque knows something, he won’t say
anything though. Jessica returns the message that Nicholas left and she tells him that she is
taking Chris out to a movie. Meanwhile, Nicholas is getting cleaned up by a man. It takes him
back 3 years ago when Abu Nazir cleaned him up and gave him a place to stay with his son Isa.

when she gets a call from Nicholas. He says that he needs to see her and she says that she is
busy tonight and that they can do it tomorrow. He agrees. Virgil teases her about the phone call.
She asks him if they have enough to get Al Sahrani. He says that there are two types of people,
those that lay down for the cause and those who fight against it. The next day, Carrie and Saul
wait for Al Sahrani to arrive. When he does, Saul asks if she has this and she says that she is.
Meanwhile, Nicholas goes up to Mike and apologizes for hitting him. He says that it wasn’t Mike’s
fault that he got with Jessica. He tells him that the Vice President offered him a seat in Congress
and needs him to talk to Jessica. He says that he will. Nicholas thanks Mike for taking care of
his children when he was gone. Al Sahrani comes in and he realizes that they are not from the
bank. He tells them that he wants to call his Embassy. However, Carrie tells him to look at the
pictures first. He realizes that they have him at the Spa with other men. He sits down.
Later, Carrie is still talking to Al Sahrani and he isn’t giving any information. He says that he
will tell his own wives because they don’t care. He says that he will say that he is gay to everyone.
It seems that he is going to leave until Carrie mentions his daughter, who he is very close with.
Carrie says that they can deport her and take away her degrees that she is getting at Yale. Al
Sahrani sits back down and Carrie tells him that they know that he met Walker and that a man,
who is connected with Abu Nazir, gave him an envelope. He tells her that he is paid only to give
Intel from his Embassy. He says that he is supposed to meet him again and Saul tells him that
they are going to be bait. He welcomes him to the CIA. Back at Nicholas’ house, Jessica burns
dinner and then sees that Mike is outside. He tells her that Nicholas apologized for hitting him
and says that he is trying. Jessica realizes that Mike is there to try to convince her. She tells
them that they should get in the same bed together by the way he follows Nicholas.
Later that night, Nicholas goes over to Carrie’s place and she is dolling herself up. She tries to
give him wine, but her refuses. He asks her if she told the CIA anything about them two. She says
that she hasn’t. He asks if they could find out and she says that they can’t. Nicholas tells her that
Walden wants him to run for office. He says that Jessica deserves better and wanted to make
sure that none of what happened at the cabin is going to get back to him while he is running for
Congress. Nicholas leaves and Carrie dumps the wine out and cries a little bit. Meanwhile, Saul
is at the office still and grabs himself some bread and some kind of spread. He doesn’t have a
knife so he uses his ruler. He looks at the picture of Mira and him. The next morning, Al Sahrani
gets ready to go to the meeting with Walker.
They arrive at a city square and Carrie, along with 15 other agents, are all watching for him.
The sniper is in position to be able to take the clear shot of Walker when he meets with him. Al
Sahrani comes to the city square and suddenly, a man comes up toward Al Sahrani. Carrie asks
for confirmation, but they can’t conclude. The man has a briefcase in his hands. Carrie sees that
the man is left handed and that Walker is right handed. Carrie tells everyone to get out of there,
but Walker detonates the bomb from his phone. Carrie is blasted back and Virgil rushes to her
side. At the same moment, Jessica watches the news report and says that it is a terrorist attack.
Nicholas comes in and tells her that it will be alright. He asks her about her thoughts about the
politics. Jessica says that the kids and her talked about the Congress bid and they agreed that
it is a good thing that he is running.
At the hospital, Carrie is on machines and Saul is there watching over her. The next day,
Nicholas and Jessica go with the Vice President to a meeting. Saul goes into Carrie’s room and
tells her that she is going to get a lot of good drugs and a week’s pay. Saul says that Walker
paid a homeless man. Saul tells Carrie that they have a leak in the government. They watch the

In the wake of the explosion, Saul finds Carrie hospitalized and manic,
but realizes her chaotic theories have merit; before his congressional
campaign begins, Brody takes his family on a weekend trip to Gettysburg, where he retrieves an important item.
The scene opens with a man sewing
something. He rolls out a strap and pours
a type of glue on some fabric. He places
beads in it. The man is creating a bomb
vest. He situates the wires and realizes
that it is ready to go. Meanwhile, David
talks to the press secretary and says that
he has to talk to the president. Saul
comes in and says that there are several agencies who knew of the bombing
and that the leak is even harder to find.
Galvez tells David that the Vice President
Walden wants to talk to him. He tells
David that Walden is on lock-down until
the threat is subsided. David asks where
Carrie is and Saul tells him that she is going to be released in a few hours. However, when Saul
gets there, he sees Carrie walking around manic about getting a green pen. She tells Saul that
she is focused on the green and says that Abu Nazir doesn’t have a single sniper and says that
he goes big. Carrie says that Walker is a pawn and says that there is a bigger threat out there.
Saul gives Carrie a green pen and is worried about Carrie’s state of mind.
At Nicholas’s house, Jessica is packing lunches and Dana says that she has plans with Xander
and they are going to a concert. They tell that she is going. Jessica says that Nicholas wants to
spend time with them before he is going to be taken away for political things. Back at the hospital,
Dr. Jeremy comes up and Saul asks where the other doctor is. He says that he isn’t there. Carrie
is still manic and Carrie says that she is on a roll and Saul tells her that she is not herself and
says that she is manic. They ask if there is anyone who they can call. She tells him to call her
sister. In the car, the Brody family is on their way to Gettysburg and Dana is recording their
trip. She looks at Nicholas’ scars and realizes that they are faded. Carrie is taken home and Saul
watches over her until Maggie comes in and gives her the medication that Carrie needs. She tells
25
Homeland Episode Guide
Saul that it is going to be a couple of days and that there needs to be someone there to watch
her. Saul tells her that he can take the night shift.
David goes down to the bunker where Walden is hiding out in and tells him the details of their
threat. Walden says that he doesn’t like that he doesn’t like that he is hiding out and tells him
to fix it. David says that the C4 that was used was part of a Saudi shipment. Walden tells David
to find Walker and to fire someone. The Brody family gets to Gettysburg and Nicholas tells Chris
and Dana all about what happened on Gettysburg and that they fought their way to the front of
the line. Back at the CIA, Saul gets in and says that they are keeping Carrie another day. Saul
tells David that Carrie things that there is something bigger and David says that she better get in
the office soon. Saul tells him that it is going to be a little bit because of the fact that the doctor
said so. Dana goes up to Nicholas and says that she didn’t know that he knew so much. Nicholas
tells Dana to promise him that she will look after her mother when he is gone on the campaign
trail. Dana is concerned and says that she will. Chris and Jessica come over with hats.
Maggie drives Carrie to the store and Carrie says that there is something big coming and
Maggie says that she needs rest. Carrie sees something and gets out of the car. She looks at a
garden and says that somewhere there is a sliver of green and says that it is how everything
works. Maggie takes her back to the car. The Brody family gets to a café and Nicholas tells them
that he has to pick up a toothbrush. However, he goes into a shop and meets with the man who
made the bomb vest. He shows him the vest and tells him how to operate it. He goes back to the
car and puts it in the under the trunk. Dana comes up and asks what the package was. He says
that it is a present for Jessica. She asks if something is wrong and says that he sounds weird.
They get in the café and a man comes up and says that Nicholas is a hero. The man says that
he is a tough man and says that he would vote for him. Nicholas stands up and starts to shake
hands with everyone in the café. Back at the house, Saul gets in for the night shift and Maggie
tells him that Carrie is upstairs. Saul sees papers scattered everywhere and Maggie tells him that
she had to give Carrie another sedative. Saul goes up to Carrie and apologizes for not seeing this
earlier and says that he feels responsible.
He goes back downstairs and starts to see the pattern in Carrie’s mess in the living room. He
starts to pin things up on her board and when he is finished, he sees the pattern of documents.
There is a separation of Red, Yellow, Green and Purple. At a hotel, Nicholas goes outside to find
Chris getting ice. He tells Chris that he wanted him to understand that wars turn things upside
down. He tells him to be brave when he gets older. He hugs him and tells him to tell his sister to
go to bed soon. Nicholas gets back in his room and finds Jessica in a lingerie piece. She smiles
and says that she likes their new life and says that the trip was a great idea. She says that this
candidacy is a good thing. She says that she is happy. They kiss and start to get ”busy” quietly.
Carrie gets out of bed and goes out to find Saul looking at her work. She is happy that he sees
it. She says that everything points around the Yellow where Abu Nazir was in mourning and that
he came back in force with the Green and then the Purple. She tells him that she heard him last
night telling her that it is his fault that’s she is like she is and tells him that she has had this
since college.
Maggie comes in and Carrie’s father, Frank, is with her. Saul leaves and Carrie says that she
needs him to tell Galvez. Frank says that he will make her his world’s famous sandwiches. At the
Hotel, Dana tries to open the package that Nicholas got and he comes up and stops her. He says
that is for Jessica only. She insists on opening in and Nicholas grabs her arm. Back at Carrie’s
place, Carrie is pacing back and forth and Frank tells her to sit down and do a puzzle with him.
She tells him that she has to get back to work so that she can help them figure out the pattern.
He says that they will handle it. Carrie says that she has a friend who knows about this and says
that he was there. Frank says that she needs to rethink this and says that he has the bad gut
feelings too and that she has to wait. However, she says that she knows what she s dong. The
Brody family gets home and Xander is waiting for them. Carrie calls Nicholas and tells him that
she needs to talk to him about Abu Nazir and why he took a break of his terrorist acts. He asks
to meet her and tells her to stay at the apartment.
Carrie gets ready to meet with Nicholas and puts on makeup. She hears a knock on the door
and opens it. However, it is not Nicholas, but David. He comes in and tells her that Nicholas
called him and says that he knows that he had a fling with her and that she illegally spied on
him. She tells him that she is working on solving the entire thing. David sees that there are
classified documents scattered on the wall and says that her desk is being cleared out and that

While Carrie is near catatonic and confined to bed, Saul investigates
the unsettling implications of her timeline; Walker secures a perch for
his mission; Brody makes his final preparations for the Vice President’s policy summit at the State Department.
The scene opens on Day 1 and Nicholas is
in front of the camera. He tells the camera
that he did it to make those accountable
of the incident to be held accountable in
one way or the other. Meanwhile, Saul
comes in to Carrie’s home and asks Maggie if there is any change. She says that
there isn’t. She asks what being on ”administrative leave” means. Saul tells Maggie will never be aloud to step into Langley again. Saul goes into the bedroom to
find Carrie sitting in a chair. He says hello
and Carrie calls him by his last name. He
reminisces with her and Carrie says that
she wants to hear a story about a man
named Abu Nazir who took a break from being a terrorist. Saul says that she knows that they
can’t talk about that. She says that she knows. She asks why Nicholas turned her in like that.
He says that he can think of hundreds of reasons why and says that he is running for Congress
and can’t afford any scandal. Saul realizes that Carrie loves Nicholas.
Meanwhile, Nicholas gets undressed out of his military clothing and packs up the camera. He
is in the same storage locker as Tom Walker was in. Nicholas goes to an area in the park and
sits down. He removes on of the stones and puts the SD card in and draws a line with chalk. At
the same moment, Tom Walker walks up to a car and breaks into it. He lies down in the back
seat. Later, a woman gets into the car and drives off. At a meeting with Vice President Walden,
he addresses and thanks Elizabeth Gaines for convincing him to accept the nomination. Walden
walks up to David and he tells Walden that they need to change the venue for his announcement
of running for President. David says that Walker can do a lot of damage, but Walden says that he
is not worried. The woman comes up to a police blockade and she shows her ID and they clear
her. The woman parks her car and Walker puts a gun to her head. Virgil comes in for the night
shift and tells her that he made dinner, but she isn’t interested in eating. She tells him to go
away, but Virgil says that he is going to sit down until she falls asleep.
Nicholas gets home and Chris is mad that Nicholas can’t go to his match. Jessica says that
they talked about this. They sit down for dinner and Nicholas says the Grace. Afterward, he asks
29
Homeland Episode Guide
how he did and they say that he did alright. Meanwhile, Walker is cutting a hole in the glass of
the woman’s place. He props up the table and sets his sniper rifle on it. He lines up the shot to
make sure it is good. At Carrie’s, Virgil is asleep, but Carrie isn’t. At Nicholas’s place, Nicholas
remembers what Abu Nazir told him and to purify his soul. He gets out of bed and goes to the
garage. He starts to pray when Dana walks in on him. She asks if he is Muslim and he says that
he converted. She asks why he washes his hands and feet and Nicholas says that it is a ritual.
The next morning, Carrie gets out of bed and asks Virgil where her medication is. He comes in
and gives it to her. She tells him that she needs to get out of there. He says that it is a great idea.
Saul goes into David’s office and says that there is an 11 month gap in Abu Nazir’s actions. There
must have been an event. He shows David the redacted report and Saul says that he thinks that
it is a Drone strike based on a number. He tells him that Saul needs to be at the conference today
and not this.
At Nicholas’s house, Chris asks if Nicholas is sure that he doesn’t want to go. Nicholas says
that he can’t. Meanwhile, Virgil drives around with Carrie and she tells him where to go. Virgil
doesn’t like the fact that they end up at the place where the conference is being held. He asks
why they are there and Carrie says that they have a terrorist on the loose. Virgil says that it is
someone else’s problem now and not Carrie’s. She asks Virgil to be on her side with this. A police
officer says that Virgil can’t sit there and Virgil says that he needs to find a place to park the van
then since Carrie is set on going up there. At the house, Nicholas pulls out the vest and puts it
on. Dana comes to the door and tells him that she really doesn’t want him to go to this thing
today. He says that Walden is expecting him to be there. He says that everything is being taken
care of and Dana says that this is awkward to have this conversation through the door. He takes
the vest off and opens the door. He says that he heard his car arrive and tells her to tell them
that he will be right there. Dana says that she is worried about Nicholas and he assures her that
he is fine.
Nicholas gets dressed and connects the bomb. He goes outside and the car is there. Dana
goes in to hug him and he stops her and tells her to be good. He gets in the car and it is a secret
service officer. He says that he has been appointed to him. In another car, David tells Walden
that Saul found a redacted document of the redacted form. Walden tells David that this cannot
get out. Saul talks to Valdez and he says that there are no documents on it. Carrie watches from
the crowd with Virgil and says that this is too small for Abu Nazir and that they are missing
something. In the apartment building of the woman from earlier, Walker watches the news to
be ready for his shot. Nicholas arrives and slowly gets his ID out of his jacket. Carrie sees that
Nicholas is there and the pieces start to come together. Walker gets ready to shoot his target.
Walden comes out of his car and Nicholas salutes. Suddenly Walker fires and Elizabeth is shot
and killed. Walker fires again and kills more people. Everyone is rushed inside and Nicholas goes
through the metal detectors without being checked.
They are lead to a closed room and Nicholas asks where the Vice President is. David tells
him that he is on his way. Carrie calls Saul and tells him that Elizabeth wasn’t the target and
says that Walker wouldn’t have missed. She says that this is Stage One and that right now the
Vice President and his team are in a tight room. She says that it is Nicholas who Stage 2 is.
She says that Nicholas is going to kill the Vice President. She says that Saul needs to get in
her in there. Saul tells Benton, an officer, to get Carrie and detain her. Meanwhile, everyone is
terrified and Walden comes in and they close the door. The officer says that they have initiated
a full lockdown. Nicholas walks up to Walden and is sweating. He reaches for the switch and
remembers Abu Nazir’s words. He flicks the switch, but nothing happens. Carrie sees Benton,
but Virgil asks what is up with the backup. She asks Virgil if she is crazy about Nicholas and he
says that he believes her. She asks for Virgil’s keys and says that he doesn’t want to know where
she is going. Virgil gets Benton’s attention. Carrie gets into the van and drives off.
Inside the secured room, Nicholas goes to the bathroom and finds the Secretary of State
there. He says that Walden has big plans for him. Nicholas takes off the vest and realizes that it
is damaged. Dana turns on the news and sees the coverage of the Assassination attempt. Carrie
shows up at the door and tells her that she needs her help. She says that Tom Walker shot those
people and that Nicholas is working with Tom Walker. She asks what she is talking about and
Carrie tells her to call him and talk him down. She calls 911 instead and tells them that there is
an insane woman at her house. She runs out in the yard and tells her that there is something
wrong with her. Jessica gets home and tells Carrie to get away from her daughter. Dana goes
30
Homeland Episode Guide
inside and Carrie tells her that she is crazy. The police come up and they take her down and
tell her not to move. In the building, Nicholas repairs the vest and goes out and joins the others.
One of the secret service officers gives him a phone and says that it is for him. Dana asks if he
is alright and says that Carrie came over and told her that he was a terrorist. She says that she
told her that she was crazy because he would never do that. He tells Dana that he is going to
come home and is shaken up about it. He doesn’t push the button and the room is cleared.
Later, Walden announces his bid in for the President of the United States. Jessica comes into
the living room and asks if Nicholas is going to press charges. She says that she doesn’t want
to hear Carrie’s name in the house again. He says that he is going to take care of it. Walden
goes up to Saul and talks to him in his office. He brings up the air strike that Walden ordered
and Walden asks if they are on the same side. Saul says that he needs to know so that he can
prevent anything like yesterday to happen again. Saul says that he is a sentimentalist and likes
to hold onto things. He shows that he has the interrogation tapes of when they tortured terrorists.
Walden realizes that Saul is blackmailing him.
Maggie gets Carrie out of jail and Nicholas is there. She says that she has to talk to him.
Nicholas says that his daughter is 16 and that she terrorized his daughter. He says that what he
says to the police depends on her. He says that he is not a terrorist and says that she needs to
get some help. She says that she is going to get the help that she needs. Nicholas says that it is
crazy what she did. She says that she is going to stay away. She gets in the van and cries. Maggie
asks where to go and Carrie says that she needs to go to the hospital. Saul watches the video of
David and Walden ordering the Drone Strike on the compound where children were playing and
where the hideout of Abu Nazir was supposedly there. Saul says that he is close to going to the
news. David says that Saul isn’t going to because that would mean that he is handing over every
asset in the field over to Nazir.
Nicholas goes back to the rock and sees that there is another line made. He goes back to the
garage and gets out a box. Inside it is a gun. He loads it and puts it in the back of his pants. He
walks to an underpass and goes inside. Walker appears in front of him. He asks what happened
and says that his vest malfunctioned. He says that what he didn’t do was a good thing and they
would have replaced Walden with someone close. Walker asks if Nazir is listening to this. He asks
to talk to Nazir. Nicholas says that he will be able to influence Walden. Abu Nazir tells him that
Nicholas is going to have to give him a demonstration of his loyalty. He tells him to kill Walker.
Nicholas gives Walker the phone and shoots him. He tells Abu Nazir that it is done. Nicholas gets
back home and tells Jessica thank you for everything. He hugs her.
Two days later, Saul goes into the hospital and tells the nurse to take the IV out of her. She
tells him that she wants the electroshock therapy. Saul tells her that it will pass, but Carrie
doesn’t want it. She says that her brain is already messed up. The doctor comes in and Carrie
says that everything is fine. She says that the memory loss is temporary and says that she has
made up her mind. She says that it needs to stop. Saul doesn’t agree with it, but he understands.
He tells Carrie that the period of silence was because of a Drone Strike that Walden ordered that
killed Abu Nazir’s son. She asks if there is a way to appeal the termination. He says that there
isn’t. Nicholas sits on top of the roof and Dana asks what he is doing. He says that he wanted
to fix the skylight. She sits next to him. In the hospital, Carrie is going under the treatment to
shock her system. She remembers her and Nicholas’ time together. She remembers the Nazir’s
son, Isa. She mumbles to not let her forget Isa’s name. They shock her system and the episode
ends.

Electroconvulsive Therapy. A former asset threatens Carrie’s peace.
Brody learns Nazir may not be happy with a nonviolent approach.
Dana lets a secret slip.
The episode begins with Carrie picking
up vegetables from her garden. Her father and sister are watching the news
and Frank is worried that Carrie’s lithium
levels are too high. His daughter, Maggie asks him to stay out of it. Carrie then
goes to her room for grading papers and
she follows the news online. Next, we see
that Saul is in the embassy in Beirut.
His team mates tell him that a woman
has come to them with some information. Saul hasn’t seen her before. The
woman wants a face to face. Saul agrees
to meet her and he asks arrangements
to be made. He leaves and he sees that
someone is tailing his car. But they manage to elude the tail and meet the woman.
Next, we see that Brody is now a Congressman and Vice President Walden is waiting for him
in his office. Walden says that he is going to float Brody’s name as a potential candidate for VP
while he runs for President. Walden says that he did run a background check on him. He has
lined him up for an intelligence briefing and he wants Brody to be prepared for the questions.
Next, Carrie is at school and Galvez arrives to tell her that Estes wants to see her. He asks him
to get lost. At home, everyone is excited about Brody running for the VP’s post. Chris has made
a lot of new friends but Dana is not in a great mood. She is going out with Xander. She doesn’t
like her new school and she hasn’t made any new friends.
Carrie arrives home and Maggie tells her that Saul has been calling all afternoon. She calls
him and he tells her that he needs her help. He wants her to meet Estes who is sitting outside
35
Homeland Episode Guide
her house. She tells Saul that she doesn’t want to see Estes as she has put all of this away. But
later she comes out on the porch and Estes hands her a photo of the woman Saul met with.
Carrie recognizes the woman. Carrie tells Estes that the woman is Fatima Ali and Estes knows
her as the first wife of the Hezbollah district commander. Carrie tells her that she recruited her
and she kept her off books as she wanted Fatima to remain alive. But she couldn’t manage to
find out whether Fatima was a valuable asset as she was transferred to Bagdad.
Estes then tells Carrie that Fatima came with information about an attack on the US that is
going to take place. He says that she is refusing to speak to anybody but Carrie. Estes wants
Carrie to go to Beirut for three days. But Estes also points out that this isn’t about Carrie getting
her job back; this is only Carrie being a good citizen. Maggie tries to stop Carrie from going. She
tells her that she needs to inform her doctor about this before she leaves. She feels that this isn’t
about patriotism; a part of her wants to do this. Frank asks Maggie to let Carrie go. Carrie hugs
her father and leaves. Estes introduces Carrie to Joy who will be accompanying her to Cyprus.
Next, a reporter named Roya Hammad arrives to meet Brody. Once they are alone, Roya asks
him whether there are any recording devices installed in his office. She tells him that she needs
to talk to him privately about Nazir. She then proves that she is in touch with the Nazir family
and that their families have been close. She tells him that Nazir wants his help. She tells him
that they know about the brief that Estes would be giving him on homeland security. She says
that in his safe there is an encryption key that contains the database of all the potential targets.
She wants him to steal it. Brody infers that if they need these then they might be planning to hit
one of these targets.
He tells her that he told Nazir that he is going to influence the law makers through his access
and that is what was agreed upon. He doesn’t want to kill innocents as he isn’t a terrorist. He
says that he will not be able to access the safe. Roya tells him that he will have his chance. She
asks him to contact her once he has the list. This is his chance to prove his allegiance. Next,
during a school debate, one of the students in class says that the Arabs want to convert everyone
as they want to go to heaven and they don’t value human life. Dana interrupts him by telling
him that Iranians aren’t Arabs; they are Persians. As the argument continues, Dana blurts out
that her father is a Muslim. In a safe house in Cyprus, Joy is briefing Carrie. She is struggling to
remember the information of her alias.
Brody returns home and a furious Jessica tells him that Dana was called to the dean’s office.
She tells him about what happened in school. Dana thinks that Jessica is over reacting as the
person she argued with is Walden’s son and Jessica fears that this could ruin her relationship
with Walden’s wife. Dana apologizes to her father and tells him that it was a slip of tongue.
Brody tells Jessica that Dana is telling the truth and Dana learned about this when she saw him
praying in the garage. Jessica rushes to the garage and finds the prayer book. She is at her wits
end and she tells him that this cannot happen. These are the people that tortured him and now
he cannot be following this religion as he is a Congressman.
She then asks him whether Carrie knew that he is a Muslim. Brody tells her that Carrie was
dismissed from the CIA and was locked up in a mental institution. Next, Joy wakes up Carrie
and tells her that they need to move out within an hour. Brody arrives to meet Estes for the
briefing. Saul talks to Estes and tells him that Carrie isn’t coping well. But Estes tells him that
there is no other option. Estes then takes Brody to his office for the briefing. But just as he is
about to begin, Estes is told that Roya Hammad is waiting for him in the press room to confirm
few facts of the story that she is going to telecast at night. Estes leaves and Brody manages to
get into Estes’ safe and copy the encryption key in a notebook.
Estes doesn’t give out much. Roya ends up asking Estes for dinner and Estes assures her
that no way he is going to divulge any classified information. But he agrees for dinner. Next, we
see that Carrie manages to get through the customs and arrives in Beirut. She reaches her room
and finds a phone and an address in an envelope. Carrie uses that phone to call Saul. Just then
Saul notices that he is being watched. He tells Carrie to walk past the café and not stop. He tells
her the time he will meet her at a safe house. Saul notices that one of the men begins following
her. He tells her to ditch the phone and get taken into custody. She tells him that she can lose
the tail. If they arrest her, the mission will be blown.
She then eludes the tail and when he gets close to her, she knees him in the crotch and
escapes. At night, Brody wakes up and buries the copy of the Koran that Jessica threw on the
ground. Dana watches him burying the Koran and asks him what he is doing. He says that this
36

copy of Koran is desecrated as Jessica threw it on the floor and tore some pages. He is burying it
out of respect. Dana helps her father with his task.

Against the advice of her family, Carrie becomes involved in an operation that may rid the world of Abu Nazir once and for all. Brody’s
handler presses the Congressman into service, as his relationship with
Jessica takes a hit. And Captain Mike Faber questions the nature of
the events surrounding the shooting of Elizabeth Gaines.
The episode begins in Beirut where we
see Fatima, the informant praying. She
comes out of the mosque and Carries
approaches her. Fatima takes her to a
safe place and asks her what she is doing here as Fatima was supposed to go
to meet her. Carrie tells her that there
was a change in plans. But Fatima says
that she wasn’t informed. She tells Carrie
that her husband is meeting Abu Nazir
the next day in Beirut. Next, Brody is attending a fund raiser and Walden is also
present there. Walden tells Brody that the
Israelis are having trouble destroying an
Iranian nuclear plant and so they are trying to acquire an American bomb.
But the President is blocking the export license. Walden feels that it is his responsibility and
wants Brody’s help to convince the Secretary of Defense. The Secretary is a Marine. Brody agrees.
Walden tells him that this is strictly off books and no one can know. On the other hand, Walden’s
wife wants Jessica to work with this group of war veterans and wants to organize a fund raiser
for them. Jessica is excited about it. Next, Carrie arrives at Saul’s safe house in Beirut. He is
happy to see that she is safe. Carrie tells him that she already met Fatima at the mosque. Saul
39
Homeland Episode Guide
isn’t pleased to hear this as he wanted to be present while Carrie talks to Fatima as he wanted
to assess her reliability. Carrie tells him about the probable meeting.
Next, Estes talks to Carrie through skype. She tells him that Fatima’s husband, Abbas, the
Hezbollah commander, will be meet Abu Nazir in person. Saul points out to Estes that this
meeting place is a dense residential area with a lot of unknown areas; so a drone strike is out
of the question. They require people on ground and they could be walking into anything! Now,
Estes is a little dubious about this story and there is no one that they can verify what Fatima told
Carrie is the truth and also Saul wasn’t present there. Carrie continues to tell him that Fatima
is a victim of domestic violence and so she wants out. She wants five million dollars and a flight
to Detroit; this cannot be a set up. Estes thinks that a Blackhawk Down isn’t the best thing for
the US at this point of time.
Next, Jessica and Dana are on their way to Walden’s house. Jessica asks Dana bout Brody’s
prayers and Dana tells her what she saw. Later, Walden’s wife tells Jessica that they want Brody
to be the keynote speaker at the fund raiser. Dana goes to the library to do her homework and
there she meets Finn Walden. They get along pretty well. Saul and Estes are still discussing
the issue at hand. Estes is really worried of dragging the soldiers on streets of Beirut without
concrete information. Estes wants Saul to make the final decision. Saul tells him that he did not
want Carrie in this mission at all. Carrie is listening to this conversation from the next room. She
has an attack of sorts and she staggers to the roof to meet Saul.
She tells Saul that being wrong about Brody really messed her up because she has never been
so sure and so wrong. She says that she can no more trust her own thoughts. But this time she
tells him that they do have a chance to get Abu Nazir. She tells her that she is sure about Fatima
as she practically saved her life. And she trusts the Carrie who recruited her. Next, we hear is
that the operation is ”a go”. Brody is preparing to leave for his meeting with Walden. He gets a
surprise visit from Mike and Brody asks Mike to ride with him. Mike asks Brody to look into
some information surrounding a lone shooter named Walker. He and his unit are a little dubious
about him. They suspect a conspiracy of sorts. Brody agrees to look into the classified report if
there is one.
Estes is being briefed about the mission on Nazir which is ”capture or kill”. Saul and Carrie
will remain in the safe house till the mission is over. There is a capture team in place along with
several snipers. Brody arrives for his meeting with Walden. Walden tells him about the black-op
in Beirut. He then takes him in to the command center to watch the mission. They see several
trucks arriving. The capture team is clearly outnumbered and they wouldn’t be able to get out
alive. So they change their mission profile from capture to kill. Brody wonders who are they going
to kill and Walden tells him that it is Nazir. Another car arrives and Abbas and Nazir’s lieutenant
alight. Brody is restless and he takes out his phone and texts ”May 1”. Another vehicle arrives
and Nazir steps out.
Just then one of Nazir’s men gives him a phone; obviously he got the message! Nazir heads
back to his car and drives away. Walden realizes that somebody warned Nazir. Saul and Carrie
rush to get Fatima. Fatima arrives and takes the house keys from Fatima and rushes inside to
check whether there is something important in there. Saul tries to stop her but to no avail. While
Carrie is in the house, a mob begins to form around the vehicle. Carries manages to get some file,
but by this time the mob is about to destroy the SUV. So Fatima tells Saul that they should leave.
They drive away leaving Carrie behind. The guys then go upstairs to get Carrie. She manages to
escape the capture and gunshots. Just then Saul’s agent arrives and hustles her into the vehicle.
Next, Brody meets Hammad who delivers Nazir’s gratitude.
She says that they suspect Abba’s second wife. He tells her that he is a Congressman and he
is not their guy. She tells him that his role is more important now and that Nazir needs him. He
then meets his army friends at a bar. He tells them that he found nothing on Walker. But one of
the men still is doubtful as Walker is dead and he is a man who never missed a shot in his life.
And on that day he missed three of them He assures them that the truth is that Walker broke
and gave up everybody’s position and that he is a traitor. He says that Walker is not the person
who they think he is.. Brody arrives home and Dana tells him about Jessica’s plan to making
him speak at the fundraiser.
She then tells him about her friendship with Finn Walden. Carrie is dropped back at home.
Next, Saul’s agent goes through the files that Carrie grabbed from Fatima’s house. There seems
to be nothing useful in them; just some names and addresses but none important. Saul asks
40

him to go and get some rest. He then notices something hard in the lining of the satchel. It is a
USB. Saul plugs it to his computer. We then see a video where Brody is telling the camera what
he did and why. He wants people to know the truth.

2WAH03
Fresh from her adventures in Beirut, a restless Carrie prepares for
what she hopes will be a triumphant return to the CIA. Meanwhile,
Brody attempts a last minute extraction of the Gettysburg bomb
maker.
The episode begins at the Beirut airport
where Saul is going through the security check. One of the officers asks him
to step out and takes him to a room. He
tries telling them that he is a Diplomat;
but they pay no heed to him and they
open his suitcase and rip off the lining
and take out a memory card. The Hezbollah rep takes it and tells Saul never to
come back to Lebanon. We then see that
Saul is in the plane and he still has the
memory card with him as he had hidden it elsewhere. Next, Carrie is writing
a report and her father tells her that she
ought to go to bed and she can’t strain
herself. She says that she is feeling great
and he says that she has one more hour
to finish her work.
Jessica finds the speech Brody has written for the fund raiser. He has mentioned his days in
captivity and how he feels about returning to his family. She says that she appreciates it and
kisses him. They start making out but get interrupted by Dana and Xander. Just then Hammad
calls Brody and tells him that based on the intel that Carrie found in Beirut, the CIA is close to
finding the tailor in Gettysburg who made his vest bomb. She tells him to go and move him to a
safe house. Brody asks her to call him and tell him. She says that the tailor trusts and knows
only Brody and so he will have to do it. He tells her that there is a problem; he is giving a speech
at the fund raiser and the VP would be attending the vent as well. She tells him that he can get
back on time of he leaves now.
Next, Danny arrives to meet Carrie and she hands over the report to him. He tells her the time
for the debrief. He tells her what she did on the field was very impressive. Brody arrives at the
43
Homeland Episode Guide
tailor’s and tells him that they have to move now as the CIA is coming for him. the tailor isn’t
very convinced and wants to know who sent Brody. Brody notices a truck across the shop and
says that they don’t have much time. Brody then drags him out of the shop and puts him in his
car. The truck follows but he manages to evade the truck. Carrie is a little worried as she hasn’t
received any text from Danny about the debrief. The tailor still has a lot of questions for Brody.
He then tells him his name is Bassel.
Just then one of the tires goes flat and there is no jack in the trunk. Brody uses some logs
to put together a make shift jack and raises the car enough to change the tire. Just the Jessica
calls and Brody walks away from the car giving her a lame excuse for not being there on time.
Bassel looks a little doubtful and he tries to listen to what Brody is talking. He picks up a stone
from the ground but later when Brody disconnects the call and asks Bassel to get into the car,
he drops it. Next, Carrie arrives at the CIA early and finds out that Estes is in a meeting. She
then excuses herself to go to the bathroom and she walks into the debrief room. She finds that
Estes has started the debrief without her. Estes tells her that she cannot be here.
He then takes her out of the room and tells her that he wanted to meet her privately and
appreciate her work. But then that is it; catching Abu Nazir is no more her concern and her
work is done. In the elevator, Carrie fights back her tears. Next, Brody stops for gas and when he
returns he finds that Bassel is gone. Later he spots Bassel running through the woods. At home,
Carrie is packing her stuff and tells her dad that she is going home as she wants to figure out
what she will be doing with the rest of her life. She can’t do it here with her family hovering. In
the woods, Brody’s phone rings and Bassel attacks him from behind. He then chases him and
tackles him to the ground, telling Bassel that he is only trying to help him.
But he then realizes that Bassel has fallen on a sharp root and it has pierced his stomach.
Bassel is bleeding. He tells Brody that he needs to be taken to the hospital. But Brody says that
this will lead him to the CIA. Brody is trying to stop the bleeding. Bassel then tells him about
his family in Syria. Just then Brody’s phone rings again; it is Jessica. She tells him that the
VP is about to arrive. He tells her that he is waiting for the tow truck as there is no jack in the
car. Bassel starts making noises and Jessica asks him what is that sound. Brody then breaks
Bassel’s neck with Jessica still on the phone. Next, Carrie arrives at her apartment and pours
herself some wine. She then goes to her closet and picks out a dress. She then puts on some
make up and her fake wedding ring.
She then goes to the kitchen and pulls out some bottles of pills. She thinks for a moment
and then gulps down around 20 of them. She goes and lies down on her bed. She begins to doze
off but then she quickly jumps out of her bed and runs to the toilet and makes herself throw
up the pills. Next, we see that it is raining as Brody digs a grave for Bassel. At the fundraiser,
dinner is coming to close and Walden asks Jessica about the plan as there is no one to introduce.
Jessica tells him that it is her mess and she will handle it. She then goes up to the podium. She
apologizes for Brody’s absence and she gives her speech; it is brutally honest when she puts
forth the challenges she faced when Brody returned home after eight years and how unprepared
she was.
And so she says that they need to use this money to set up a place for theses war veterans
who return back after years, thus helping them deal with their homecoming which could be really
hard on them. She receives a standing ovation. Next, we see Brody trying to wash himself at a
car wash. Mike brings Jessica home and she asks him if he would like to come in. he passes. She
then places a kiss on his cheek. She tells him that she doubts that Brody is cheating on her as he
did spend a weekend with Carrie and so now she is having trouble believing the car breakdown
story. Mike changes his mind and goes inside. Just then Brody arrives and he is certain that
they were about to go inside together. Mike leaves.
Inside, Jessica asks him to tell her the truth. Brody tries to stick to his story about the union
meeting in his district. But Jessica is not buying it. She knows that he is hiding something. She
tells him that either he tells her the truth or start looking for a hotel room and give their marriage
a serious thought. Dana overhears their conversation. Next, Saul arrives at Carrie’s apartment
and wakes her up. He then shows her the video as he wanted her to be the first person to see it.
She watches the video and begins to cry. She was right!!

Following a secret debrief from Saul, a stunned Estes authorizes a
covert operation to pursue intel recovered in Beirut — but not without putting his own trusted operative in charge. Brody, still reeling
from his misadventures, gets another shock when he runs into Carrie
at Langley. A casual invitation to bury the hatchet turns into an encounter neither of them could have foreseen. And Dana discovers she
has something in common with Finn Walden, the Vice President’s son.
The episode begins with Saul arriving
at Estes’ house with Brody’s tape. Estes
is shocked and after watching the video
he asks Saul what the next move would
be. Saul suggests that they could either arrest him or have him followed.
This could allow them to gather any intel about the future bombings. Estes feels
that it is dangerous for Walden to be moving around with Brody. Saul tells him
that they should hire people outside the
Agency to follow Brody and that no one
else knows about this and it is carried out
in complete secrecy. Estes tells him that
he will be sending a man to him who will
be running the things.
At home, Brody brings Jessica coffee and tries apologizing to her. She wants him to tell her
the truth and nothing but the truth. He tells her that he wants to tell her but he can’t. She tells
him that she doesn’t trust him anymore. She tells him that if he doesn’t tell her the truth, he
should leave. Brody packs a bag. Dana is talking to Xander and she looks as if she is growing
apart from him. Brody then drops her to school and she sees his packed bags in the car. She tells
him that his car smells like smoke and leaves. Finn arrives and there is a smile on her face. Next,
Virgil and max meet Carrie and she takes them to Saul. Saul introduces her to peter Quinn, who
is the ’man running things’ sent by Estes.
His team will not be seen by anyone. Carries is slightly taken aback and wants to know about
his experience and he tells her that he was an analyst at Langley with six years of experience.

Now, Carrie and Peter both have a plan. Peter explains his plan where they would have Carries
intentionally bump into Brody at the meeting today. This should trigger his fear that Carrie’s
theory about him could be back in action and this could send him running to his handlers. Well,
seems that Carrie shad a similar plan. Next, Brody is at a car wash and he is getting a ’new car
smell’ as he wants the smoky smell to go away. The man at the place seems to be from the Middle
East. Virgil and Max are watching Brody and clicking pictures. At the CIA office, Carrie is waiting
for Brody to arrive and when he does, she walks past him, making sure that he notices her.
He is stunned to see her and calls out to her. She thanks him as she owes it to him that she is
fine know as he was the one who told her that she needs to get help. She also congratulates him
on becoming a Congressman. He wants to know if she is back and working on something. She
tells him that she cannot discuss it with him. Brody is intrigued. At home, a drunken Lauder
arrives to meet Brody and Jessica tells him that he isn’t home. Lauder says that he will wait.
Jessica is unable to get Brody on the phone, so she calls Mike and tells him that Lauder is home.
Mike tells her that he will be there in a while. At the operation HQ, Saul and Peter congratulate
Carrie on her good work. They are now monitoring Brody but they have no audio in the building.
But they follow Brody on camera and see him talking to Roya Hammad. At the CIA, Brody
tells Hammad about Carrie’s return and he feels that this might involve him. But Hammad thinks
that she could be there because of Abu Nazir as the timing makes sense. Instead, she tells him
that renewing his relationship with Carrie could be useful. At the HQ, Peter is very blunt when
he asks Carrie about her sexual involvement with Brody. She thinks Peter is too mouthy for an
analyst. Mike arrives and takes Lauder with him. Brody calls and tells Jessica that they will talk
tonight, but she doesn’t want to. Lauder tells Mike that he is on to Brody. He thinks that Brody
is trying to cover up Walker’s death.
He thinks that Brody had teamed up with Walker and working together like old times. Dana
and Finn are studying together and when Walden gives his son a tough time, Dana backs Finn
up. They then make plans for the weekend. The team watching Brody discusses all the people
Brody met during the day. Carries is suspicious of Peter and wants Virgil to dig around a bit and
get some information on peter. Estes apologizes to Carrie and tells her that she has done a good
job. Carrie tells the team that Brody is living in a hotel as his wife chucked him out of the house.
Turns out that Peter and Carrie will be the only ones watching Brody and doing the night shift.
Next, Finn takes Dana for a ride in his BMW and they go to the Washington Monument which is
under renovation; but clearly not for the Walden’s son.
They go to the top and they kiss. But then Dana pulls back, telling him that she has a
boyfriend. He tells her that he wants to be her boyfriend. Dana tells him that she needs to talk to
Xander first and he asks her to do it soon. Next, Carrie and Peter are getting cameras installed
in Brody’s room at the hotel. Virgil sees Brody at a bar and calls Carrie to inform her. He says
that the hotel security let them in on the cameras, and so she will be able to monitor him in a
second. Peter asks Carrie if she fell for Brody. Carrie doesn’t appreciate this question and tells
Peter to tell her something about him. He say she is from Philadelphia and graduated from the
Harvard; a must in his family. He also states that he is very reliable. Just then Brody calls Carrie
and tells her that they should meet for a drink and bury the hatchet.
She agrees. Peter tells her that Brody hasn’t called his handler. Carrie thinks they should
spook him a little more. Peter suggests that she should drop something about Abu Nazir on him.
Carrie is nervous but Peter isn’t as he thinks she is good. She arrives to meet Brody at the bar.
Saul joins Peter. Brody asks her how she is doing and about her work. She tells him that she
cannot say names, but they are circling in on a terrorist; the big one. He then mentions her
therapy and she seems a little irritated. Brody then pays the bill and leaves. Carrie calls Peter
and tells him that Brody made her. She feels that he is on to her and so they should send in the
team. Peter asks her to come back. But instead, Carrie goes to Brody’s room and tells him that
she heard his room number when he paid his bill.
She then instantly talks about the way he feels for his country and the way he treated her.
She has blown the operation and Peter sends in the team. He moves towards her and just then
the agents arrive. They cuff him and Carrie calls him a traitor. The team then places a black bag
over Brody’s head and take him away.

Brody finds himself prisoner again, but this time it’s on American soil.
Meanwhile, Carrie is forced to play second fiddle after her rash judgment call at the hotel as Estes is busy keeping Jessica off their trail.
The episode begins with Brody in custody. A furious Estes arrives and heads
straight to the room to meet Saul and Peter. He doesn’t talk to Carrie. Estes wants
to know what happened to the surveillance and why the arrest. Peter tells him
that Carrie thought that Brody read her
and so she blew the cover and they had to
bring in Brody. They need to act quickly
before Nair’s men realize that Brody is
missing and then they will lose any intel
about the next attack on America. Saul
suggests that Carrie should go in and talk
to Brody. But Peter thinks that she is too
emotional and reckless. Carrie enters the
room and tells them that she is positive
that Brody made her.
Estes tells her that Peter is going to take a whack at Brody and Peter asks Carrie to go home.
But Saul wants Carrie to stay. they agree; but it is going to be Peter’s show! Peter enters the room
and sits across Brody. He informs Brody that he is in CIA custody. He will not be given a lawyer
and he is off the grid. Peter then asks him why the torture that went on for five years suddenly
stop. Brody doesn’t know why. Peter then asks him who is Isa and Brody tells him that Isa was
one of the guards. Peter points out that Nazir’s youngest son is also named Isa. But Brody says
he isn’t aware of it. Brody tells Peter that carries is out of her mind and she is lying about him.
Brody also denies being converted into Islam.
When asked he says that he doesn’t know how Walker missed the shot on Walden. Brody
denies wearing a bomb; he denies everything. Peter then plays the tape that Carrie found and
he leaves. He arrives in the surveillance room and tells them that they will let Brody stew for a
while; no sleep. Next, Jessica tells the kids that Brody is living in a hotel so that they could sort
out few things. Chris is really upset with the whole thing. Dana meets Finn and tells him about
his parents. He says he can relate to it. She then tells him that she broke off with Xander and

they plan for a movie at night. Estes meets Greg, Brody’s staffer and he tells him that Brody is
helping them with an issue of National security.
So he tells Greg to spread the word that Brody has flu and he is staying at the hotel as he is
in the middle of a conjugal spat. Jessica tries to reach Brody. Next, Saul tells Peter and Carrie
that Jessica has called three times already. Peter gets back to the grilling session. Brody admits
that Isa was Nazir’s son and he taught Isa English. Brody tells him that he loved Isa as his own
son and that Isa was killed in a drone strike ordered by the VP. He tells Peter that he wasn’t
wearing the vest. Peter threatens him to tell Jessica and the kids. But Brody says that Jessica
will understand. Brody tells Peter that they have nothing oh him. Brody also says that he knows
nothing about the upcoming strike.
Peter then pulls out a knife and stabs Brody at the back of his hand. Carrie and Saul rush into
the room. Brody receives medical help. Carrie tells Saul that she will take over the interrogation.
Next, Jessica goes to the Ashford and finds out that Brody isn’t there. She calls Greg and asks
him to track down Brody and have him call her. Greg calls Estes and tells him that Jessica
is becoming an issue. Estes tells Greg he will have Brody call him back. After Brody’s hand is
bandaged, Carrie sits cross him and tells him that he broke her heart and that she ended up
losing her job and ended up in a mental institution. He tells her that he never wore a bomb. She
asks him whether he felt anything for her and he apologizes for hurting her.
She then gets him some water. Saul realizes that Peter losing his temper was all theater. Every
good cop needs a bad cop! Carrie then disables all the cameras (the audio is on though). She then
unlocks the cuffs. She then tells him to stop lying as he is drowning in his own lies. She states
that Nazir is a monster an he killed hundreds of civilians; wives and children who were Chrises
and Danas and Jessicas. She points out how they manipulated him by being kind to him and
giving him a son to love. She says that telling the truth will make him feel better. To prove her
point, she tells him that she feels that he should leave his family and be with her.
She says she is now feeling better. She knows that he is a good man as he did not detonate
the vest he was wearing. She knows about Dana’s call that he received when he was in the panic
room with Walden. It was her voice that changed his mind. She then asks him about Nazir’s plan.
He says there is a plan but he doesn’t know much about it. He tells Carrie that Roya Hammad
might know about the plan. He tells her about Bassel and the Saudi attaché. Saul arrives and
gives Brody his phone and asks him to call Jessica telling her that he will be back home tonight.
Brody calls Jessica and tell her that he was out finding some answers. Dana is waiting for Finn
as they have a date.
While waiting for Finn, Dana tells her mother that she knows that her father changed during
the war. Finn arrives. Next, Carrie wakes up Brody who is asleep on the floor. She tells him
that they need to go over his options. She tells him that he could help them to uncover Nazir’s
plans and he will face no trial and there will be no charges pressed. He will quit politics and
go somewhere far way. He asks whether they could give him immunity and she says a yes. He
knows that they don’t have the power to give him that; but she tells him that he better hope that
they do. Also, his family will never know about any of this. Dana tells Finn that she wants to
have some fun. Finn jumps the signal and tries avoiding his tail.
He takes few quick, sharp turns and hits a pedestrian. Dana wants him to check on the
woman. But he cant as his father is the VP and his future would be over if any of this gets out.
They see that someone else is helping the woman and Dana reluctantly agrees to leave from the
scene. Next, Carries knows that Brody told Hammad about her. He tells her that Hammad suggested re-establishing the relation with Carrie. Carrie tells him that if his absence is questioned,
he should tell Hammad that he was with her. That could be their cover. Brody tells her that if
Nazir finds out that Brody is working with the CIA, he will go after his family. She assures him
that they will protect his family.
Brody reaches home and tells Jessica that he is working with the CIA on matters of National
Security. Just then Dana arrives home and she looks nervous. Chris is happy to see his father
and hugs him. At her apartment, Carrie pours herself a glass of wine and sits on her couch.

Dana’s visit to the hospital proves shocking; Faber’s interest in Tom
Walker piques the CIA’s interest; Brody agrees to team with Carrie and
Quinn to prevent an attack on the U.S., but his loyalty is called to the
fore when Gettysburg once again becomes a focal point of a pivotal
engagement.
The episode begins with the CIA surveillance on Hammad. Max and Virgil follow Hammad. Carrie knows that Hammad knows she will be seen as she is a
public figure; but she also knows that she
wouldn’t want to be heard. And Carrie is
right; Hammad walks up to the fountain
and meets a man wearing sunglasses. So
they have video but no audio. Since he is
wearing sunglasses, the facial recognition
won’t work. Max walks up close to them
but the audio is too faint and Carrie gets
frustrated. Virgil then follows the guy but
loses him in the subway. At home, Jessica says that she has fifty million questions about the CIA assignment he is on.
He can’t talk but he asks her what she wants to know and that he will tell her something if
possible. But she changes the subject. Dana doesn’t want to go to school. There is no way they
can get an ID on the man Hammad met. Carrie suggests they should get Brody in and see if
he can identify the guy. Peter agrees but warns Carrie against trusting Brody. At home, Brody
receives a text from Langley. Jessica wants to know if he is working with Carrie in the CIA. He
says a no and says that CIA kicked her out because of her nervous breakdown. Brody drops
Dana to school. Brody feels that he is being tailed. As Brody drives away from the school, he sees
Finn and Dana walking into the school together. Hmm. Finn tells Dana to take it easy. He tells
her that there is a hospital nearby and that the woman is going to be fine.
Brody arrives to meet Carrie. He tells her about Jessica’s question. Carrie reminds him about
the deal. She wants him to identify the guy Hammad met. But Brody tells her that he hasn’t
seen him before. Brody states that he doesn’t like being followed. Peter senses that Brody knows
something. Brody tells them about Bassel’s death. Peter is furious as his team is watching the
49
Homeland Episode Guide
Gettysburg store, waiting for the tailor to show up. Brody complains that he didn’t know that
they were watching the store as he isn’t told anything. Carries takes Peter aside and tells him
that they can ask the team to search the store and see if they can find something. Peter agrees
to put a forensics team together and get them to Gettysburg.
Carrie thinks they need to have Brody run back to Roya Hammad to get some information.
Peter agrees. Next, Mike and Lauder go to the place where Walker’s body was found. The detective
who takes them there tells them that a 9mm casing was found at the site. Looking at the place,
Lauder thinks that Walker walked into this place with someone he trusted. The detective tells
them that CIA took over the investigation in 20 minutes. Mike thinks there is a guy in CIA who
could help. But there is no guarantee that he would share classified investigation. Dana goes
to the hospital to see the woman they hit. There she meets the woman’s daughter and she tells
Dana that her mother was doing better initially but now it seems that she isn’t going to be alright.
Dana tells her that her father is a doctor and she came looking for him.
The girl then tells Dana that the nurse has told her to call the priest. Dana is nervous and
she immediately leaves. Next, Saul arrives. Carrie tells him that Peter says no to trust Brody.
Saul thinks Peter is right. Well, she is the one who came up with that theory when the world
was calling Brody a patriot of the Century!! But Saul worries that she is being so close to Brody
again. Next, Peter and his team are in the store and he asks them to look for anything out of
the ordinary. Carrie meets Brody and tells her to tell Roya that he overheard Carrie talking to
someone about a Hezbollah operative who just entered the country. Is that, who he is? It is just
a guess. Brody thinks that talking to Roya is a bad idea.
But he says he will anyways. Next, Saul arrives to meet Mike. Saul asks him about his investigation regarding Walker’s death. Mike agrees and tells him that he is meeting Peterson. Saul
takes Mike into a room where Estes is waiting for him. Mike is a little surprised to see Estes.
Mike is asked to stop his free lance investigation into a matter of National Security. Mike says
he understands. Next, Brody walks up to Roya and takes her aside. She is surprised that he
isn’t following protocol. He tells her about the conversation he overheard at Carrie’s place. She
then tells him about the tailor’s shop and the FBI surveillance that has been happening since
two weeks. She says that the team has now entered the shop and asks him if he knows anything
about it.
He says a no and asks if they found anything. She says ”they might”. Carries seems to have a
strange feeling. At school, Dana tells Finn that the woman died. Finn doesn’t want to talk about
it. He feels that it is more important that they don’t talk about it now. He freaks when he learns
that she went to the hospital. He says that all this will come down on him as he was driving. He
tells her that if any of this gets out, he will be dead. In the store, Peter gets a call from Carrie and
she tells him about Brody’s meeting with Roya. She tells him that she knows that they are at
Gettysburg. She asks if he found anything but he says a no. She feels that there was something
wrong about the way that Roya said ”they might” find something. She warns him to keep his eyes
open.
Peter calls for reinforcements. Meanwhile, Mike is going through Brody’s things and tells Chris
that he is looking for something he lent his father years ago. He finds a 9mm and finds exactly
one bullet missing. In the store, Peter is staring at an empty wall. Just then a team of men
wearing gear enter and shoot down everyone one present in the store. They then break down the
wall and pull out a box. The guy who Hammad met is the one leading the team. He puts one of
their guys who is dead on his shoulder and walks out with his men and the box. Peter is badly
wounded; but he has survived. Mike talks to Jessica and tells her that he cares about her and
tells her that he feels that Brody killed Walker.
Jessica tells him that Brody is working with the CIA, but Mike thinks it is a cover-up. Jessica
asks him to leave. Next, Carrie barges into Brody’s office. She starts yelling at him saying that
she has got seven casualties in Gettysburg and asks him that if he knew about the attack. She
asks him if he has been lying to her. She feels that when he talked to Roya, he must have told
her something. He denies. He tells her that he didn’t lie to her and that he doesn’t know what
she is saying. She breaks down and he comforts her.

In the aftermath of the ambush, Carrie and the team scramble to gain
control of the operation, while Brody attends a well-heeled fund-raiser
at a Virginia horse farm. Elsewhere, Saul drops in on Aileen, who is
in solitary confinement, hoping she can shed some light on the latest
attack; and a conflicted Dana leans on Finn to fess up to their crime.
The episode begins with Hammad waiting for Brody during his morning jog. She
tells him that they lost a man and so he
is going to have to play a larger role now.
This time he wants details as there are
six feds who are dead. Well, that is how
it’s going to be. She tells him he needs to
meet with someone and she will give him
the details later. She tells them that they
are almost there. Next, Saul visits Aileen,
who is in solitary confinement for twenty
three hours in a day. He tells her that
they need her help. He shows her the picture of the man who led the Gettysburg
attack. She knows the man and she tells
him that in return of her help, she needs a cell with a window; a view.
He tells her that he can get that done. She will help only once she gets what she wants. Carrie
meets Peter in the hospital. She feels that judging by the size of the box that was taken from the
tailor’s shop; there was enough C4 to blow up the embassy. Peter decides to discharge himself
from the hospital. Next, Dana tells Finn that she went to the dead woman’s funeral and she
wants to tell this to someone; especially their parents. Finn tells her that it is already bad with
his father. But she says that if he doesn’t want to, she will do it herself. Finn agrees to tell. Brody
tells Jessica that Avery Philips is the new contender. But he is still the front runner. He then asks
her if Mike was home the other night. She tells him that Mike told her that Brody killed Walker.
He tells her that the CIA used him to reach to Walker and it got messy and that he did have
a part in it. They then join Walden at the fundraiser at Rex’s place. Brody then steps aside and
calls Carrie. He is pissed that his wife came to know about Walker. Carrie assures him that they
will deal with Mike. He also wants to know how the managed to lose six agents. Estes arrives
51

and Brody disconnects the call. Carrie understands Brody’s stress as a double agent. Carrie
tells Peter that they need to find a way to empower Brody. Next, Saul asks the warden about
Aileen’s demand but he isn’t helping to expedite the process. Saul decides to go through the
proper channels. He says that he will have orders sent from the Attorney General. Carrie meets
Mike. He realizes that she is here about Brody.
She tells him that there is a terrorist attack in work and Brody is essential to them. She
knows that he is emotional about Brody because of his feelings for Jessica. He tells her that he
will lay off his investigation. At the fundraiser, Brody ends up answering some uncomfortable
questions about the days he was held prisoner. Walden talks to Estes about Gettysburg. Estes
tells him that they are on it. Saul arrives to meet Aileen and tells her that the warden didn’t agree
and that they will go over his head. But since time is of the essence, he wants her to help him
immediately. Next, Rex apologizes to Brody about the way he was questioned. He tells him that
since he served in Vietnam, he understands how Brody might be feeling. Rex tells him that he
doesn’t care much about Walden as he feels he is ignorant.
Considering all the recent events, he knows something is coming. Rex tells Brody that he is
supporting Walden because eight years down the line, he is looking at Brody. Brody thinks Rex
is giving him too much credit. Carrie calls Brody and aks him to meet her at the nearby clearing.
She tells him that Mike is going to leave him alone. He tells her about the conversation he had
with Rex. They kiss. He wonders if she is handling him by keeping him close. He also tells her
that she makes him feel good. At the fundraiser, Finn drinks some alcohol; liquid courage. Dana
tells him that they need to tell their parents and they end up in an argument. The mothers
overhear this argument and Dana tells them what happened. They go inside to talk. They then
ask the kids to leave.
Cynthia says that these kinds of situations need to be handled in a particular way and asks
her to let her handle it. She wants Jessica to follow her lead. But Jessica says that she has to
talk to Brody about it. Saul calls Peter and tells him that he is waiting to hear from the Attorney
General. Saul brings Aileen some bread, cheese and wine. They toast to her window. Saul gets a
call from the Attorney General and he tells Aileen that they faxes over a signed order. The guard
brings the form into the room. She tells him that the man in the photo is Muhammad-al Gandhi.
And he is been in the States for a year. She also states that he is gun crazy. Next, Cynthia tells
Walden about the accident. She also tells him that it was Dana who pushed him into telling. She
tells him that Estes and his guys will deal with it.
She tells him that Jessica is the one they need to worry about. Jessica tells Brody. At the
fundraiser, Rex tells the crowd that he Walden/Brody ticket is the ticket to a bright future. They
drink to that. Brody talks to Walden about the accident. Walden tells him that all this will be
taken care of if they stick with the program. It means that all this will lie low. He tells Brody
that they needn’t be benched due to some teenage screw ups. Next, Peter is in a private plane
and plans an assault on al Gandhi’s residence. The agents go in. Peter finds out that the man is
nothing but a musician. He knew Aileen from the pool club. This means that she duped them.
Saul wonders why she would do such a thing. She knew that they would find out.
He suddenly realizes something and he rushes into the cell. He sees that she has used one of
the glasses from the specs he had given her to see the photograph and has cut herself with it. He
asks her why she did this. She says that she is never going back to that cage. She says that she
wanted to spend a day by the window. She dies. Next, Brody tells Dana that they are going to the
police. They leave. Estes sees this and he calls Carrie. He tells her that he feels Brody is going to
blow this thing. He asks her to get in her car and call him. Saul tells Peter that he got emotional
and that led him to believe her. He knows it was sloppy. Brody arrives at the police station and
finds Carrie waiting for him. Dana wonders why Carrie is present there.
He asks Dana to stay in the car and he goes to talk to Carrie. She tells him that he cannot do
this. He is surprised that she knows about it. She tells him that if he does this, it will alienate
Walden. And all this will be off. Dana walks up to them and she assumes that Brody doesn’t
want to report this because of the campaign. She walks off. Brody yells at Carrie and leaves after
his daughter.

Brody’s juggling of alliances appear to be leading him to a major meltdown, so Carrie, against Quinn’s orders, stages a dicey intervention.
Meanwhile, a conflicted Dana seeks comfort from an unlikely source.
The episode begins with Dana getting off
a bus. She walks down the street and
keeps looking behind to see if she is being followed. She then arrives at Mike’s
house and Mike is surprised to see her.
He invites her in. At home, Jessica and
Brody are fighting over Dana’s disappearance. Jessica is pissed that Brody didn’t
file the complaint and so Dana was upset and so she went away. Outside, Carrie
and Virgil are listening to the fight from
inside the van and Carrie sis worried that
Brody might miss his meeting with Hammad thanks to this fight. Jessica wants
him to tell the CIA that his daughter matters more and if he cannot then she will
call them.
Just then Mike calls her and tells her that Dana is at his place. Jessica leaves to get Dana
from Mike’s. Carries sees Jessica and Chris leave the house and she goes inside and tells him
that he needs to go for the meet as Hammad was going to introduce him to a new contact. He
says that he can’t do it and she tells him that he needs to do it for his family. He tells her
everything is falling apart. She tells him that this could possibly be the last time. Jessica arrives
at Mike’s house and tells him what happened. Mike tells her that Dana is asleep upstairs and
that he would call when she wakes up. Brody arrives to meet Hammad and he is in a mess. He
tells Hammad that he cannot do this and that he is under a lot of pressure. He then tells her
that he is done with this and is not going to do it anymore. Peter wonders what Brody is up to
and calls Carrie.
Hammad follows Brody and tells him that she does understand what he is going through. And
that he quitting now will not be good for him. She tells him to sit; but he just blows her off and
leaves. Peter is pissed and Carrie tells Virgil to kill the tracking. Peter calls her and she tells him
that they are having some tech issues. Peter tells her that they too are facing some problems.
She tells him that she is following Brody on foot. Peter tells Carrie to bring Brody in as he is a
53
Homeland Episode Guide
threat to all of them and that if ”they” pick him up first, who knows what Brody would tell them
Carrie spots Brody but she doesn’t tell Peter. She then walks up to him and tells him that she
wants him to be safe and so let her drive.
Estes meets Saul and tells him that Brody jumped surveillance and that Carrie helped him
do so as she isn’t answering her phone and that both of them are missing. Saul tries to point out
that Carrie might be trying to fix the problem but Estes isn’t too sure as she has some twisted
feelings for Brody. Estes wants him to find her and bring her back with Brody. Carrie takes Brody
to a motel and then goes to get them some food. Next, at Mike’s, Dana is awake an d he tells her
that she should call her mother as he had promised Jessica that he would let her know when
Dana wakes up. Dana wants to stay the night and Mike says that she should ask Jessica. Dana
calls her mother and asks her if she can stay back. Jessica tells her that she misses her.
Dana then tells Jessica that Brody backed off as Carrie came and told him something. Jessica
didn’t know about this. Dana says she is sorry for hurting her by telling her about Carrie. At the
motel, Brody asks her how long before they are caught and Carrie tells him that it depends on
how hard they look. He then tells her that he has burnt all bridges with the CIA, with Nazir and
his family. He feels that he was better off in Iraq than he is now. She tells that they still need him
and that he can make things right. But Brody says that they must now have some other person
with some other plan in place. He says that the CIA can do whatever they want.
He then asks her if she would visit him in the prison and she tells him that she probably will
be in the cell next to him. She tells him that if they manage to stop Nazir then all of Brody’s past
doings will not matter. Including what he did to her. He thinks that she is crazy. In fact she is
crazier than anyone could imagine. She tells him that their deal is a way out for both of them.
She then kisses him. We then see that a camera is filming them. Saul is listening into this and
the noises get louder and busier for Saul to even hear it. Peter has sent a takedown team and
Saul stops him. Peter points out that Carrie is not fixing it; this is about her getting laid.
Saul tells Peter that Carrie did not run away; she went to a safe harbor house where she
knew Saul could find her. She is asking for more time. Peter pulls off the takedown team. Next
morning Brody calls Roya and tells her that he is having some trouble with his daughters and he
would like to take back some words that he said to her. He says that he wants to be a part of it
again and that this would happen. Roya thanks him for the call. Brody asks Carrie if Roya would
believe him and she says that Roya will as this is the truth. Also, she wants him to confide in
him before he blows up the next time. Dana talks to Mike and asks him was it difficult vanishing
from their lives after Brody returned and he says that it was difficult.
She then tells him she wants to go meet someone and asks him for a ride. Carries arrives at
the Ops and Saul is worried about her. He tells her that most of them were listening into them
at the motel. She tells him that he need not be worried about her as he is not her father. Peter
arrives and shows Carrie the video where Brody is meeting Roya. Roya appears suspicious about
Brody and asks him where he was last night. He tells her he was with Carrie as he was instructed
to renew his relationship with her. Roya then takes his phone and pulls out the battery and the
Ops lose audio. Carrie feels that Roya knows. She wants a follow vehicle with Max and Virgil.
Dana goes to meet the dead woman’s daughter and she immediately realizes that Dana killed
her mother. She wants Dana to keep quiet about it, otherwise she wouldn’t get anything. She
asks her to leave and never show her face again. Roya takes Brody to the middle of nowhere
and they stop the car. They get down in the dark. No one has any visual on Roya and Brody
and Carrie wants to pass by to ensure that Brody is safe. Peter grants one clean pass. A third
guy joins Brody and Roya. He is the guy who led the team in Gettysburg. Brody sees a car
approaching and he asks Roya if they are expecting someone else. She tells him to get inside the
car. Max clicks pictures of the man and sends it to Peter.
Carrie tells Peter that she wants to go in and Peter orders to stay away. Carrie gets out of the
car. Peter orders her to stay put but she doesn’t listen. She then sees them grab Brody and take
him somewhere. She sees that the man has Brody at gunpoint and hustle him into a helicopter.
Carrie shouts that they took him and now they are gone. Dana arrives home and tells her mother
what happened and wonders if it is a payoff.
Jessica doesn’t know about that but she is not surprised because of the campaign. Dana
says that she can’t forget it and Jessica assures her that it will be okay. Brody is dragged into
a warehouse and a car arrives. A clean cut man steps out and walks towards Brody; it is Abu
Nazir.

Things for Brody are threatening to spiral out of control, forcing him
to make a phone call he has been avoiding; Carrie preps for a pivotal
meeting; Saul teams with Virgil and Max for an assignment.
The episode begins with Estes, Saul, Carrie and Peter in the Ops. Carrie thinks
that Brody is dead; if not physically then
operationally. They need to move on.
Estes thinks that their next best move
would be to roll up Hammad. All agree.
Meanwhile, Nazir drops Brody off in some
remote location in Baltimore. He tells
Brody that he needs his help on this one
and that the mission cannot be accomplished without him. They hug and Nazir
leaves. Brody runs to a café and calls
Carrie and tells her too take his family to
some safe place. Carrie is relieved to hear
from him.
Estes thinks that Nazir and Brody can
be playing them but Saul says that, 12
hours after he was taken, Brody is still alive and wants his family moved to a safe location; this
means Brody is still on their side. They drop the Hammad plan. Mike goes to Brody’s house and
tells Jessica that they need to move to some safe place as there is a threat. Dana doesn’t like it.
Carrie watches Brody’s family leave with Mike. Brody asks Carrie to meet him where they first
met. Max and Virgil break into Peter’s apartment as Saul and Carrie had asked them to keep a
watch on him. They find a lot of anti-intrusion devices and a sniper cleaning kit. They have never
seen an analyst live like this. They tell Saul that the cleaning kit indicates that it is a sniper rifle.
They then tell Saul about a photo they found in the only book Peter has; a lady carrying a
small baby. Her name is Julia Diaz and she is Philly PD. Brody’s family arrive at the safe house
and Jessica is still being kept in dark about the nature of the threat. Brody meets Carrie and he
tells her that Nazir is here in America and he is planning an attack. Brody then meets Saul, Estes
and Peter. He tells them that Nazir threatened to torture him but never did. Brody says that he
wasn’t too bothered by it after all that he has been through. Nazir then arrives with tea and asks
55
Homeland Episode Guide
him about the recent happenings. Brody told him that he was worried about his family’s well
being after he was gone. Nazir assured him that nothing will happen to his family if Brody stayed
true to himself.
Brody then tells them the specifics of the attack. The following day Walden and he are scheduled to meet with the soldiers returning from Afghanis tan and their families to would be present
there. Nazir plans to attack the homecoming. This is a locked down, classified event and Brody’s
role is to convince Walden to allow one secret reporter to cover this event; Roya Hammad. Brody
knows that no one believes but Carrie tells him that she does and he says that it is all that matters to him. She tells him that Walden will be in his office soon and Estes will brief them about
the recent developments. All that Brody needs to do is act surprised. Carrie then tells him that
his family is with Mike. At the safe house, Dana tells Mike that she wishes that Brody should not
have returned home from that war.
Mike explains to her that they all come back from the war with some wounds. Next, Estes
meets Walden and Brody and tells them about the situation. He tells Walden that with his help
they can track down the terrorist cell and shut it down. He tells Walden that Roya Hammad is
working with Nazir. He wants Walden to allow Hammad to cover the event so that they can roll
them up and stop the attack. On learning that Nazir is in the US, Walden agrees for the plan.
Estes tells Brody to make the call. Roya is pleased that Brody managed to convince Walden. She
tells him to find a way to be with her at the vent. Saul realizes that it is a bomb and Roya just
told Brody to be with her so that he can be away from the blast radius.
Jessica thanks Mike for being there for them. Next, Saul goes to Philly PD to meet Julia Diaz.
He introduces himself as Richard Keller from IRS. He tells Julia that he is there to talk about her
son’s father. She tells him that they have never been married. She does not believe that Saul is
from IRS and so she doesn’t divulge much. Saul leaves and tells Virgil and tells him that Peter
will get a call from his mother. Peter does. Peter then tells Carrie that he has some errands to
run and leaves. Virgil gets into the van and Max is following Peter. Max tells Virgil that Peter has
taken a bus. He then gets off the bus. He has ditched his jacket and put on a hat. He then gets
on another bus. Max then sees him talking to someone on the bus. Max clicks snaps and leaves.
At the safe house, Jessica goes into Mike’s room and takes off her clothes and gets into the
bed with him. Virgil shows Saul the picture of the man Peter was talking to; Dar Adul, who runs
CIA missions ”they don’t talk about”. They realize that Peter is not an analyst and wonder what
he is doing in the team. In the morning, Jessica wakes up and goes into her bedroom before
the children wake up and realize what happened. Peter arrives at work and the tactical team is
going through prints and layouts and preparing to deal with the attack. They are following Roya’s
movements. Carrie is in the van with max and Virgil and they are following Roya.
Brody’s family is allowed to talk to Brody over the phone. Chris calls Brody. Brody wants to
talk to Dana but she refuses to talk to him. Jessica takes the phone and tells Brody that Dana
is sleeping. Jessica wants to know what is happening and Brody tells her that things will be
fine soon and that they will get back to where they were. Carrie is keeping a watch on Roya and
reports to the ops that she is meeting with her camera crew. Peter signals to Estes and Estes
nods his head. He gets up and leaves. Estes tells Saul that Peter is a liaison with the FBI. An
analyst is a liaison? Estes tells Saul that Peter is wearing two hats today.
Saul then asks Estes as to who is running the operation; is it Dar Adul and he also wants
to know about Peter. Estes tells Saul that Peter is here to kill terrorists. Carrie alerts the team
as Nazir’s ammunitions guy steps out of the vehicle and there are three others she doesn’t
recognize. One person is in the van and she cannot see him. Carrie then tells the team that they
are switching the camera batteries with something really heavy. The tactical teams move in and
take down the camera crew. They also take down a vehicle that tries to flee the scene. Everyone
is happy but Saul looks confused. Carrie moves in to confirm the man inside the vehicle is Nazir.
Meanwhile, Peter arrives at Brody’s house in a limo. Estes orders him to standby as he is waiting
for confirmation that it is Nazir.
Carrie tells them that the man isn’t Abu Nazir. Peter removes a gun and points towards
Brody’s seat, ready to shoot. Estes tells him to stand down as they still need him as the man in
the vehicle was not Nazir. Brody is surprised to see him and asks him what he is doing there.
Peter tells him that he is watching his back. Peter tells Brody that his information was good but
they didn’t still catch Nazir. Nazir is still out there.

Brody and Walden develop a chink in their political relationship, and it
may impact their future, while Dana and Finn come to an understanding concerning their differences. Meanwhile, Carrie discovers she’s not
as looped in as she thought.
The episode begins with Saul meet Dar
Adal at a diner. After a brief conversation, Saul asks him about Peter Quinn.
Dar tells him that Peter is one of his.
Saul knows that Estes has brought in a
black ops guy in the picture. Dar tells him
that maybe Estes did not trust Saul anymore and he put Peter in to keep a watch
on Saul. Dar says that Saul is too emotional for this line and he is amazed that
Saul managed to stay this long. Well, so
is Saul. Mike and Jessica are not guilty
for having sex. Brody arrives and thanks
Mike for his help. Brody meets his children and then while they are alone Jessica wants to know what is the next step.
Brody tells them that they are not going home yet. Jessica tells them that all of them ae going
crazy. Brody finds Mike to be a great help. They then look at each other and Jessica asks, ”What
are we doing?” She tells him that Dana told her that Carrie was the one who stopped him from
going to the police. Carrie calls. She tells Brody that the Attorney wants Brody to resign from the
office and that they need to figure out what they need to say when he is asked for the reason. He
says that he would tell them that he wants to give more time to his family. They then disconnect
the call. Carrie is driving and we see that a white colored van runs into her car. During the
celebratory meeting, Estes reminds his guys that Nazir is not yet found.
Later, Saul talks to Estes and wants to know what Peter is doing in his operation. Estes tells
Saul that this is Peter’s operation. Estes loses his cool on Saul and Peter arrives telling them that
Carrie has been in an accident but she is nowhere to be found. Estes tells Saul to go and look
into this matter. He then tells Peter that Saul knows. Finn wants to meet Dana and she agrees.
Just then Brody gets a video call from Nazir. He has Carrie! He tells Brody that he wants the
57
Homeland Episode Guide
serial number of Walden’s pacemaker and that if he doesn’t do it, he will kill Carrie at this very
moment. Brody agrees. Brody decides to go to Walden’s house and the lady in charge of Brody’s
security arranges for a car. Carrie tries to get to a blade so that she could free herself; but Nazir
arrives and zip-ties her legs as well.
Saul is at the accident site and there are reports that a man saw a woman being dragged
into a car. Saul gets Carrie’ phone from the car and he sees that the last number she called was
Brody. Saul calls Brody. He tells him about what happened and wants to know what they spoke
about when they spoke. He tells him that they discussed about his resignation. Brody does not
tell Saul about the call from Nazir. Finn arrives to meet Dana and tells her that every day he
thinks about the accident and it is driving him crazy. Dana wants to know if he knew that his
father paid off the woman’s daughter. He tells her that is how the world works. But Dana realizes
that he did not know about it. Finn tells her that he wants to start over and Dana tells him that
their relationship is broken.
In the ops, Virgil shows Saul footage of Nazir at a gas station before the kidnapping. A man
arrives and tells them that he wants to help. At the warehouse, Carrie tells Nazir that Brody will
not be able to get the number; but Nazir tells her that Brody can be resourceful when required.
He then realizes that Carrie loves him as well. Nazir thinks that they have at least that one thing
in common. Carrie tells him that he won’t leave this country alive; he knows and he doesn’t care.
They then argue about their interests and what their beliefs stand for. Carrie thinks that they
pervert the sayings of the prophet and turn teenagers into suicide bombers.
Nazir tells her that they are ready to go through all the pain and sufferings to exterminate
them and that they would also wait for centuries. Brody reaches Walden’s house and learns that
he is still in the meeting. He goes to his office and snoops around and finds the serial number.
He then calls Nazir and tells him that he got the number; but he wants him to let Carrie go first.
He knows that the minute he texts him the umber, Nazir will kill her. But Nazir feels that if he
lets Carrie go, Brody will not text him the number. Brody swears on the soul of Issah that he will
text him the number. Nazir is doubtful and Brody tells him that Nazir knows how much he loved
Issah and how much he hates Walden.
Brody tells him that Walden deserves to die. Nazir then sets Carrie free. Carrie gets up and
runs. Brody wants to see Carrie getting away. Brody is relieved to see that Carrie has run out of
the building towards the road. Nazir now asks him to send him the number; else he will go after
Carrie. Brody sends him the number. Nazir then forwards that number to an accomplice who
the feeds it on the computer. Brody then puts back the box and Walden arrives. But he does not
suspect Brody. Brody tells him that this office and all this cannot e his as he is withdrawing his
name from the candidacy. He wants to give more time to his family. Walden tells Brody to screw
his family.
They are talking about the second highest office on this land and someday maybe the highest.
The guy types in a program into the computer and we see that Walden has a cardiac arrest. Brody
asks him if e s alright. He then tells Walden that he is resigning because he wants to feel clean
again and also because he disagrees with everything Walden says or does. The attack becomes
severe and he wants to call the doctor. But Brody refuses and he also pushes the phone aside.
He then tells Walden that he is killing him! The computer shows a flat line; Walden is dead. Next,
Carrie stops a truck on the road. She takes the phone from the driver and calls Saul.
She tells him the location she was held up by Nazir. The CIA is sent to that place. Estes and
Peter exchange looks and, Peter checks his jacket and immediately leaves the ops. Estes picks
up the phone. When Saul is about to leave the building, two men stop him. They tell him that
they need to take him for questioning. Saul tells them to talk to Estes and they tell him that
Estes is aware about this.
Meanwhile, Carrie goes back to the building where she was held by Nazir. She picks up a long
pipe and goes looking for Nazir. She hears a noise coming from a room. She opens the door and
enters.

Carrie’s hunt for Nazir continues, but she suspects something’s amiss
inside the Agency, while interrogation reveals Roya’s true colors.
Meanwhile, unexpected circumstances put Saul’s career in jeopardy.
The episode begins with Carrie walking
around the warehouse, looking for Nazir.
She is looking totally dazed and tired. She
sees a man walk by and she follows the
path. But then that leads her out of the
building, where the CIA unit is preparing
to enter the warehouse. She is confused
and wonders how she lost him as she just
saw him. Peter then asks her how she
escaped and she told him that she was
lucky. She doesn’t tell him about the call
Brody made to Nazir. She asks for Saul
and Peter lies to her and tells her that
Saul got caught up with Walden’s murder situation. At the safe house, Jessica
and Brody are unable to get some sleep.
Jessica wants to have a talk with Brody; about the truth. Just then Brody’s phone rings and
he goes to the balcony to answer it. It is Carrie. She tells him about Peter asking about her
escape. She wonders what Nazir will tell the CIA when he is caught. Brody is relieved that Carrie
is safe. Jessica is watching Brody talk on the phone and she is upset and she goes back into the
room. Larry arrives in the interrogation room with the polygraph equipment and it is Saul who is
going to take the test. Saul knows that all the tests are a farce but Larry tells him that for Estes it
is very important. But he then learns that some unknown guy is going to ask him the questions.
Peter tells Carrie that the tact team is completed the initial sweep and there is no trace of Nazir.
Carrie finds that hard to believe. Carrie finds this impossible and she feels that he has help
from an insider. Peter is skeptical but he still decides to take another look. During the interrogation, Saul feels that Estes is trying to frame him for Aileen’s death. At the warehouse, Carrie
is getting hysterical. She is sure someone is helping Nazir and she is about to question the tact
team members. Peter stops her. She wants to know who is directing the search along with Peter;
59
Homeland Episode Guide
he tells her it is Galvez. She thinks Galvez is the muzzle. Just then they are told that Galvez is
driving away from the search site. They follow Galvez. They catch up with him Nazir is not with
him. He tells them that his stitches popped up and so he was going at the hospital.
At the safe house, Dana loses it completely and she wants to know what they are doing in
that place, away from their normal life. She doesn’t want Brody to be around and she says that
they all were better off with Mike and that Mike would be a better father than Brody. Jessica
intervenes and she tells them that they can figure things out once they go back to their own
house. At the ops, Carrie admits to Estes that all this was her fault. She goes to wash her face
and Estes tells Peter that he wants him to question Roya Hammad. Peter thinks that Carrie
knows a lot more about Hammad but Estes is not too sure about Carrie after what she just did.
Later, Carrie walks into the room where Hammad is kept. She shows Hammad the wounds Nazir
inflicted on her.
She tries to reach out to her by saying that she understands what Hammad has lost over the
years. But she also tells her that Nazir cannot help her with anything; all he wants is perpetual
war. Roya gets agitated and she tells Carrie that she doesn’t understand anything. Peter arrives
and takes Carrie away. He asks her to go home and tells her that he will deal with Hammad and
promises that nothing will be done without Carrie. The guy who questioned Saul arrives with a
report on the polygraph analysis and tells Estes that there is everything that he wanted to know.
But he also tells Estes about a rant that Saul was going on and on about; something to do with
Brody’s assassination. The polygraph machine showed that he was telling the truth but the man
thinks it is the best to leave that out. Carrie is on her way back home and something strikes her.
She calls Peter ad tells her that Hammad’s words are bothering her; she had said that Nazir
would never run. She feels that Nazir is still hiding somewhere in the tunnels and that she is
going back there. At the site, there are just few men left as the rest of them were called back. She
wants them to sweep the tunnel one last time. Estes meets Saul. Saul tells him that he knows
that Estes is trying to kill Brody. Estes tells him that Brody is a terrorist and not a Congressman.
He tells Saul that he can either co-operate with him or else he has enough material to charge
him with Aileen’s suicide and he would spend rest of his life attending the hearings on his case.
Carrie is in the tunnels, with one unit of the tact team.
She and one of the guys follow a different path and she notices something weird about the
wall she sees in front of her. She feels that there is something behind the grill and turns out that
she is right. The tact team member shifts a small unit like thing and enters the passage and he
sees that there are paper wrappers and a bag and other personal items lying around. He radios
for help but there is no signal. He asks Carrie to go and get help. She runs but then she goes
back to check on the guy and she finds him lying on the floor; his throat is slit. It is Nazir and he
tries to attack her. She was right after all!!
She runs, screaming for help and he follows her. She hides but he manages to get her and
punches her hard in her stomach and throws her against the wall. The team arrives and he
runs. He then is found kneeling down and the tact team has their guns pointed at him. He
attempts to reach out for something from his pocket and the teams shoots him. Nazir is dead.
Estes congratulates Carrie as she was the one who always had the sixth sense about Nazir. He
then tells Peter that he still wants Brody taken down and it could look like Brody was killed for
what happened to Nazir. At the safe house, Brody and his family are told that it is safe for them
to go back home now as Nazir is dead. The children are happy. They all reach home; but Brody
is not going with them. His is leaving.
Jessica tells him that she failed to do whatever was necessary when Brody returned home
after his capture; it was beyond her. Brody tries to tell her the truth, but she doesn’t want to
know it now. She tells that all this while she fought to learn the truth, but now she doesn’t want
to know anything. She knows that Carrie knows everything about Brody and that she accepts
Brody will all his baggage. That is lot of love there!! She goes back into her house. Brody arrives
at Carrie’s house and she lets him in. Peter is outside Carrie’s house; he is watching them.

to contemplate the future of the family. Meanwhile, Saul undertakes a
secret assignment and Quinn has a decision to make that may prove
to be a game-changer.

take him out. He then calls Estes and
tells him that Brody is not alone and that
he will take him down as soon as he gets
him alone. Carrie and Brody go for a walk

Later, Brody tells Carrie about a second chance and Carrie says that they could have a clean
slate. They then discuss about her illness and he tells her that he is not scared of it. Carrie tells
him that he should be. She also tells him that she is scared about the things he’s done. Peter

out to Brody. She then finds him at the backside; he is alive. Next, Estes arrives home and is
shocked to find Peter sitting in his room in the dark. He asks Peter if Brody is killed. Peter thinks
that after Walden’s death and Brody’s resignation, there is no more threat to the nation.
Peter thinks that they got Nazir because of Brody and Carrie is the best Intelligence Officer he
has seen. And killing Brody would be like killing Carrie. So he infers that the only reason to kill
61
Homeland Episode Guide
Brody is for covering Estes’ ass. He doesn’t want to wreck Carrie once again; he tells Estes that
nothing should happen to Brody, or else he will return to kill Estes. Next, Brody calls Jessica.
He tells her that there is a memorial for Walden and that he needs to stop by at home to collect
his suit. Jessica then tells him that Chris hasn’t been eating very much. Brody then goes to the
cafeteria and meets Mike. He tells Mike that he and Jessica are separating and that gives his
blessings to Mike to go back to his family. Next, Estes arrives to meet Saul and tells him that he
is free to go. He tells Saul that he decided against killing Brody.
He feels that since Brody kept his word, he too has decided to keep their end of the bargain.
And the report on Saul is being redacted as they speak. Brody is at home, collecting his suit and
Dana has decided to stay back so that she can talk to her father. She asks him about Carrie.
He tells her that he is screwed up. She is upset. Next, Saul and Carrie are on their way to the
service. He tells her that she is going to be the youngest station chief. She wonders how Estes
agreed to this and he tells her that Estes owes him. Carrie is not too thrilled and Saul wonders
why. She tells him that she is scared about her illness and also that she wants a more balanced
life. He realizes that she is talking about Brody. Saul is not too happy about the fact that she
chose Brody over the agency.
He thinks that she is throwing her life away as she cannot be at the agency with Brody in
her life. She reminds him that he doesn’t having an exciting personal life. He tells her that she
doesn’t know a goddamn thing. He feels that she is the smartest and the dumbest person he has
ever known. Saul arrives at the memorial. Saul lands on an aircraft carrier and he observes the
burial rituals for Nazir; everything is being done according to the religious rules. At the memorial,
Estes is praising Walden. Carrie and Brody sneak out of the memorial and go upstairs. She tells
him that she has decided to be with him. They kiss. Just then Brody notices something weird;
his car has been moved. He remembers that he had parked it elsewhere.
Carrie realizes what’s going on. Just then a bomb explodes and the flames engulf Estes who is
on the podium. Nazir’s body s dropped into the ocean. The Agency is a mess after the explosion.
Carrie wakes up and finds an unconscious Brody lying next to her. She removes her gun and
points it at him. He wakes up and is shocked to see Carrie aiming at him. He tells her that he is
not responsible for what has happened. It would be Nazir and that he sacrificed himself for this.
Carrie doesn’t believe him. He tries to reassure her that he did not do this. She collapses on to
the floor and begins to weep. She tells him that nobody would believe him. She tells him that
they have to leave the building. At home, Jessica and the children hear about the explosion on
the news. Few officials execute a search at Brody’s place.
Carrie brings Brody to a storage facility. She tells him the plan; they are going to leave the
country. They enter the facility and Carrie opens a trunk; it is full of cash and fake IDs. Saul
arrives at the agency and he is told that approximately 200 people have been killed and only 27
survived. Walden’s wife, son and Estes are dead. He is also told that Carrie and Brody have yet to
be identified; but they are presumed dead. According to the forensics, the bomb was in Brody’s
car. Saul is now the ranking officer on site and he will have to brief the President. Saul leaves
a message for Carrie saying that he is looking for her. Carrie takes Brody to get a fake id made.
Jessica tells the officials that Brody moved out and is no longer living with them.
Dana tells the guys that Brody did not do it as she knows that they are holding Brody responsible for what has happened. Just then Brody’s video of the suicide bombing is being aired
and Dana is in tears. Following this video, there is a confession from the militant group who
confesses that this is their doing. Brody is also watching the television and realizes what is happening. Carrie takes away Brody’s phone as she knows that the minute he gets in touch with his
family, the Agency will be on to them like bloodhounds. Saul gets a call from his wife. She was
worried about him. She then asks him about Carrie and he tells her that she is gone. She tells
him that she would like to come to the US and he gladly agrees.
Carrie and Brody are about to cross to the Canadian border on foot through the woods; but at
the last minute she decides against it. She tells him that she is not going with him; she intends
to clear his name. They kiss and she assures him that this is not goodbye. Brody leaves. The
next day, Saul begins with his investigation. He is in a hall with hundreds of bodies. He says a
prayer and Carrie arrives and calls out to him. Saul looks at Carrie; he smiles.

In the aftermath of the horrific terror attack that destroyed the U.S.
intelligence apparatus, a global manhunt begins for the world’s most
wanted terrorist — Nicholas Brody. Meanwhile the government’s investigation deepens, with a Senate Select Committee begins asking for
answers, while Carrie and Saul attempt to put their shattered careers
back together.
A man, Peter Quinn, is working in a
dark basement. He appears to be building some sort of bomb, which he checks
to see if it is working, and then places it
ominously on his fridge.
Carrie is being questioned as a representative of the CIA by the Senate. Fiftyeight days have passed since the attack,
and the Senate is investigating the extent
of the CIA’s knowledge of Brody’s terrorist involvement. Carrie’s involvement with
the task force is talked about, and her
judgment is being examined for failing to
stop the attack.
Over at CIA headquarters, Dar Adal
and Saul walk into work together, discussing the investigation and how Carrie is doing. Adal thinks that Carrie taking the fall for
this would be a good thing for the CIA, which Saul refuses to let happen. The ruins of the burned
building outside still remain, as a punishment for how much the organization has failed.
The board continues to question Carrie, and she is shocked when she finds they have a secret
document from the CIA. It is concerning the deal made with Brody for immunity, in exchange for
65
Homeland Episode Guide
his help. Carrie claims to not know anything about it, and defends Brody’s innocence. A recess
is called. Carrie’s lawyer warns her how dangerous it is for her to attempt to protect Brody,
discrediting her in the public eye. Carrie steps out for fresh air, leaving behind her notepad,
which her lawyer sees is covered completely in frantic scribbles and ideas. Carrie calls Saul and
informs him there is a leak giving out documents, and he promises to get to the bottom of it.
Dana is talking with a support group about re-entry into society. She has been institutionalized for unknown reasons, and talks about coping mechanisms. She and another boy in the
group appear to have something going on between them. Dana’s mother arrives to pick her up
and speaks with her therapist. He tells her that her daughter has made great progress since she
attempted to kill herself by cutting her wrists. He suggests continued therapy for both Jessica
and Dana, following her release. Jessica is without an income, and under great stress from the
public eye, so this seems unlikely. Outside, Dana kisses the boy goodbye, and they talk about
remaining in contact, until she has to go with her mom. Upon leaving the center, Dana and her
mother are swarmed by the media asking questions about Brody.
Saul has called a meeting at the CIA to discuss a planned strike against six members believed
to be involved with the bombing. They have a twenty-minute window to attack all members except
the leader, Jevadi. He has been nicknamed ”The Magician,” for making people disappear and no
one can find him. Saul decides to hold off on approval of the strike for the time being. Dar Adal
attempts to convince Saul to approve the strike, as well as letting Carrie take the blame once
again.
Carrie arrives at home and finds her father examining a massive map of the world on her wall,
covered in possible locations of Brody. He takes note of her erratic behavior and confronts her
on not taking her medicine. She claims she is fine without it. It helps her perform better, which
is something she could have used the day of the bombing.
Jessica and Dana arrive at home, Dana taking note of the FBI presence outside. Inside, her
brother and grandma are waiting to welcome her home. Dana heads to her room, noticing the
bathroom was re-done in her absence. Inside her room, she puts away a photo depicting her
father and then begins to unpack. After finding a note from her boyfriend, she takes a shirtless
photo of herself and sends it to his cell phone.
Saul is shown at home, discussing with his wife Mira his confusion over what decision to
make about the strike. She has been home for two months now, although they sleep in separate
bedrooms. He explains that he does not want to make the CIA into assassins: they are not
supposed to kill unless absolutely necessary, and remains torn on the subject.
Carrie returns to court the following day, where the congressman brings up the subject of
her whereabouts during and following the blast. In her official testimony, Carrie stated she was
in the bathroom, and was then knocked unconscious for the following 14 hours that she was
unaccounted for. However, other testimony has revealed people saw her leaving with Brody.
While for now there is no proof of any wrongdoing, the congressman promises to uncover the
truth and punish all of those involved.
Over at CIA headquarters, Saul stands at a window staring at the rubble of the blast site. Dar
Adal approaches him, and Saul gives the order to take out the six targets, as his potentially last
order for the CIA.
In Caracas, Venezuela, Peter Quinn is on a motorized bike following his target. He switches
on the bomb shown earlier, until he sees a small boy riding in the car as well and changes his
mind.
In a mission control room, Saul and his team are monitoring the situation of all six targets.
Everyone is in place to go except for Quinn, who is given ten minutes to acquire the target. If he
can’t, all six missions are to be aborted. Quinn gains entrance into the house he was stationed
outside of by using the bomb to cause a distraction. He shoots three guards using a silencer,
then kills the target and takes a picture of his body. As he begins to pack up files he found on
the desk, someone shines a flashlight on him, and he shoots them as well. It turns out to be a
young boy, and Quinn is visibly upset.
At headquarters, at the last possible second they receive confirmation of the target’s death.
All five other strikes are put into motion successfully.
Carrie is shown at a convenience store buying an excessive amount of tequila as a method of
self-medication. She makes small talk with a man who is also purchasing liquor, the two clearly
flirting.

At the house, Jessica and her family are having dinner. She talks about how she plans to go
back to work to bring in money with her accounting degree. Her mother wants her to go after the
government for cutting off benefits. There is palpable tension at the table, until Dana breaks it
by cracking jokes.
Carrie brought the man from the store home and had sex with him. Later, she wakes up
to a phone call with a bad hangover. It’s her father who wants to read the paper to her, an
article about Carrie. While she isn’t named in it, it discusses an agent who was having a sexual
relationship with Brody. Carrie storms into the lunch Saul and his colleagues are having, and
confronts him about the article. After fighting with them she is pulled away, yelling at Saul that
Brody was his idea.
Dana is at home taking down things in her room, when she receives a shirtless response
from her boyfriend in a text. As she carries out a box of things, she overhears her mother and
grandmother discussing her attempt at killing herself. Her grandma believes that if Dana had
really wanted to kill herself, she would be dead. Accused of wanting attention, Dana walks away,
clearly upset.
Saul appears before Congress, where he discusses the successful attack completed the day
before. The congressman does not want to discuss it in depth, and directs his attention to the
article in the paper wanting answers. Under the pressure of the public eye, Saul cracks, placing
the blame on Carrie as she watches on TV. He explains the agent in question is unstable, and
had concealed her disorder from the CIA, among other things. Carrie watches in disbelief as tears
fall down her face.

therapy.
Open with Carrie showing up at Saul’s
place. He’s not home and Mira references
the restaurant incident. She responds
with a remark about being screwed over
in front of a Congressional committee.
A woman wearing the traditional Muslim head scarf arrives at Langley. She’s
given several dirty looks as she walks in
and shows ID. Her name is Fara and she’s
an analyst there to help Saul with financial transactions. Saul and Quinn aren’t
particularly warm and Quinn seems upset that she’s only been with the CIA a
week.
Adal calls Saul away from his meeting to tell him Carrie has contacted a reporter and will likely spill the beans about
Brody. He gives Saul a head’s up that he’s going to take care of this problem.
We see a frantic Carrie meet with a reporter. She sounds less-than-sane as she talks about being a target. Three police officers arrive to cut the interview short and say they have a psychiatric
detention order.
Dana and Jessica meet with a therapist. He asks her about her re-entry into the real world.

Homeland Episode Guide
Carrie meets with a doctor. She tells him he can tell the CIA that she will ”stand down.” He
brings up the fact that she is no longer taking medication. Carrie says she cannot take the meds,
again referencing missing the bombing.
When Fara tells Saul she hasn’t found anything directly linking Iran with banks funds, he
makes a nasty comment about her wearing a Hijab. She gets emotional and suggests they questions employees of several banks and ask about some suspicious wire transfers.
At home Dana retreats to her bedroom and covers her face with a pillow. She walks to the
bathroom and turns on the water.
Quinn visits Carrie in the hospital. He warns her that there were things which happened
before the attack she’s not even aware of . He tells her to be careful and she screams at him to
leave.
Jessica can’t find Dana anywhere in the house. Cut to her standing outside Leo’s window at
the hospital. She texts him and he directs her to a side door. It’s locked and he kicks out a fan
to let her in. Dana said she needed to see him and they kiss. Clothes start coming off.
While Carrie’s father and sister prepare for her hearing Saul shows up at the door. Saul tells
them he’s on Carrie’s side and says they need to keep her out of sight so she can ”level out.”
Post-sex Dana talks about them not being ”defective.” She blames the world around them.
Security guards find them and break up the scene.
Quinn shows up at Carrie’s hearing as a character witness. Maggie arrives with medication
for Carrie and she starts to panic. Frank confronts her about going to the press with classified
information and she goes on a Saul rant. As the hearing begins Carrie makes a break for the
door and has to be restrained.
Saul and Fara meet with the bankers who hid funds for Javadi. Quinn sits in. Saul and Fara
explain that money which came through their institution was used to finance the CIA bombing.
Fara uses strong language about needing to know the origin of the funds. The bankers leave the
meeting indignantly.
Jessica picks up Dana. She thinks Leo is unstable and not what Dana needs right now. When
Dana gets home she brings Jessica to the bathroom. She says her suicide attempt wasn’t a cry
for help, that she really wanted to die. But now she wants to live and a big part of the reason is
Leo. Dana blames Brody for ruining their lives.
Quinn tells Saul he’s not okay with the agency’s course of action and plans to leave after
they’re finished. He doesn’t like how Carrie is being treated. Saul thinks everything will eventually
be worth it but Quinn isn’t so sure
Quinn confronts one of the bankers at a restaurant. Quinn threatens him that if he doesn’t
give them the information they need he might be in trouble.
Quinn’s intimidation worked. Fara tells Saul that all signs are pointing towards Iran. She tells

As Brody finds himself in increasingly desperate straits, he returns
to his faith for guidance in an unexpected way. Carrie struggles to
connect with Saul when a mysterious man offers to help her, but at a
great cost.
Open in Venezuela. A jeep approaches
five heavily armed men. The driver gets
out with his hands up and tells them
he found a man. It is Brody: Ghostly
white and with what appears to be bullet wounds to his stomach. He is loaded
into a truck and taken into a city. He’s
taken to the basement of a half-finished
high-rise where a Dr. named Graham is
waiting to try and patch him up. With the
help of a woman and small boy he seems
to be able to get Brody stabilized.
After the surgery-type procedure Graham tells the leader of the group who
brought Brody there, El Nino, that Brody should live. Graham knows that Brody is a fugitive
with a $10 million bounty on his head but owes El Nino a favor.
Later that night a confused Brody wakes up in pain. The woman, Esme, lays him back down
and injects what appears to be heroin into his arm. Later, while Brody is half-conscious he sees
somebody rifle through his belongings and take his watch.
The following morning Brody has Esme, El Nino’s daughter, walk him out of bed. He’s still in
the high-rise and looks out over a city through the open wall. El Nino tells him he’s in Caracas
and Brody tells him he’s missing his passport. When Brody asks why El Nino is helping him he
says he’s an acquaintance of Carrie’s.
Brody and Esme walk around the building. He surveys his new surroundings and teaches her
some English. The building is home to homeless children, prostitutes and drug dealers.
After Brody begins bleeding he has a follow-up visit with Graham who appears to have a
romantic relationship with the young boy who helped him work on Brody. Graham gives him
some background of the unfinished building, which was abandoned when the economy tanked.
Brody is adamant he’s leaving once he gets his strength back.
El Nino brings Brody his watch and passport and shows him the man they’ve caught with
the items. When Brody confirms this was the man who robbed him El Nino shoves the thief off
71
Homeland Episode Guide
the side of the building to his death. He tells Brody there was no choice, in case the man told
someone who he had seen. Brody returns to his room and grabs some clothes. He heads outside
and quickly runs into armed men working for El Nino. El Nino tells him there is no place for him
to go. This is the final stop for Brody.
Graham comes to Brody with more heroin. Brody turns it down.
We see Carrie at the hospital three weeks into her treatment. She’s now on Lithium and asks
her doctor to tell Saul she’s doing better. She seems to be saying the right things but clearly
doesn’t believe all of them.
Brody tells Esme he thinks he can seek refuge in the mosque and asks her to help him.
Carrie takes a break from arts and crafts to go to the bathroom. She bangs her head on the
mirror hard enough to draw blood and is discovered by a nurse. She convinces the nurse not to
tell anyone of her slip-up.
Esme is able to help get Brody past the guards inside the building.
While stitching Carrie up the nurse tells her a man has come to visit her. Carrie is convinced
this was Saul and tells the nurse to help her meet with him if he happens to return, even thought
she doesn’t yet have visitor privileges.
Brody makes it to the mosque. Esme wants him to take her with him, but he tells her he
cannot. Brody speaks with the imam, who takes his hand and brings him inside. Brody is brought
inside and meets the imam’s wife.
The nurse sneaks Carrie down to see her visitor.
While Brody showers two policeman break into the room and knock him to the ground. They
were called by the Imam who has figured out who Brody is: ”You aren’t a Muslim, you’re a
terrorist.” At this point El Nino’s men break down the door. They kill the policeman, along with
the Imam and his wife.
The man there to visit Carrie is actually a lawyer, not there on Saul’s behalf.
After El Nino yells at Esme he dumps Brody into a closed room. He tells him he will die there,
that no one can save him.
The lawyer tells Carrie one of his partners would like to meet with her. He thinks he can get
Carrie out of the hospital. He says ”I’m on your side” and she’s convinced he’s there on behalf
of a foreign country interested in turning her against the CIA. Carrie walks back upstairs and
frantically goes for her meds.
Graham goes to back to see Brody. Brody says he can’t stay there, that it feels too much like
the ”hole in Iraq.” Graham tells Brody he’s like a cockroach and belongs there. Graham leaves
behind more heroin and this time Brody injects himself.

Carrie learns that even in its crippled state, the CIA can still exercise
power when needed. Dana goes AWOL, forcing Jessica to call the police. Saul and Fara follow the money trail to an unexpected location
and Carrie has a meeting.
Open with Carrie waking up in the middle of the night to witness another patience being forcefully restrained by orderlies and doctors.
Fara tells Saul she’s found the missing money. It is being skimmed from
the Iranians through a soccer stadium
in Venezuela. The name associated with
the account is a deceased Iranian soccer player. Adal pops in to confirm Saul
still wants him to ”handle that.” Saul
waits until he leaves before continuing
the conversation with Fara. Saul knows
that Javadi’s favorite soccer player was
the name being used and he thinks this
is his way to safely embezzle funds from the banks.
Carrie prepares for her latest hearing with her attorney. Based on the reports from her doctors
and the fact her family is so involved with her recovery, her lawyer thinks she should be allowed
to leave the facility.
All seems to go well at Carrie’s hearing, though for some reason her father and sister don’t
show as promised. When she leaves for the deliberation the judge hints that she should be okay.
Leo sneaks out of the hospital with security hot on his trail. He and jumps into a waiting car
driving by Dana.
While Carrie waits for the deliberation she spots Adal leaving the meeting room. When she
goes in the judge tells her the justice department has stepped in and designated her a security
risk. After they’re given the room Carrie tells her lawyer what happened with Adal and the CIA.
She doesn’t think she’s getting out anytime soon. Carrie borrows her phone and calls her father.
Somebody had told him the hearing had been moved to the following day. She asks her father to
contact Saul and tells him that she’ll do whatever possible to get out.

Dana gets a phone call from her mom and Leo tosses it out the window. He points out they
can be caught with the GPS.
Jessica and Mike are frantic trying to find Dana. They meet with the police and Leo’s parents.
Leo’s parents hint that because of her father Dana must be the real problem here.
Dana and Leo meet with some shady mechanics and trade her car for another one. One of
them recognizes Dana but can’t place her face.
Carrie is woken up with word that she’s been released. She comes home and finds the lawyer
Franklin who approached her a few days earlier waiting in her living room. He says she can stay
out of the psychiatric ward if she meets with his boss, one of the partners at the firm. He doesn’t
know what the meeting will be about, but she agrees.
Saul tells Adal to get Carrie off the streets.
Carrie learns that the justice department has frozen her bank account and cancelled her
credit cards. She calls Virgil, who tells Carrie that she’s radioactive right now. She gets him to
agree to let her borrow his van, but towards the end of the conversation he tips her off that he’s
being watched by the CIA.
Dana and Leo sit in a cemetery. He talks about his brother, who committed suicide. Leo
blames himself for not taking care of his younger brother, but Dana tells him it’s not his fault.
Mike and Jessica talk about Leo’s parents. She lets her guard down and talks about how
upset she is with Brody.
Dana brings Leo to base where he left for his deployment to Iraq. She relives the experience
and tells him it was the last time her father told him the truth. Since he returned from Iraq she
believes everything has been a lie.
With no other options Carrie drops in the one-night-stand guy she met at the liquor store. In
the morning she steals money from his wallet and heads out onto the street. A black SUV pulls
up. It’s Franklin, bringing her to the meeting.
Fara and Saul look at a picture of Javadi and appear to have connected him to Venezuela.
They have him dead to rights, but Saul doesn’t want to show their hand. If they tip off the
Iranians to what they know he’ll be dead. Saul wants to somehow bring him in and question
him.
Carrie meets with a lawyer named Bennett. It becomes clear that he’s there on behalf of
Javadi, who wants to use her as a source of information. Specifically he’s curious how the CIA
was able to kill so many of his associates. Carrie says she’s not a traitor and turns down his
offer. But Bennett starts reminds her how she’s being treated by her own government and says
that it’s just a matter of time before the CIA shuts her up permanently. She agrees to help, but
only if she meets with his client alone and in person.
Mike gets Jessica information about Leo’s case. It turns out that he was committed as a way
to avoid a homicide charge related to his brother’s death. It’s unclear whether or not the brothers
had a suicide pact, but Leo appears to be the one who pulled the trigger.
Dana tells Leo how much she’s enjoying their time alone. She says she never wants to go
back. ”And we don’t have to,” Leo responds.
Carrie shows up at Saul’s house. As soon as they’re alone we learn that what is happening
was an elaborate plan between the two of them to arrange a meeting with her and Javadi. But
Carrie is struggling with the weight of the mission and tells Saul he should have gotten her out
of the facility. He tells Carrie she’s been brave and says ”it’s almost over.”

border. He claims to be there for business.
Saul brings Quinn into the loop on the
mission with Carrie. He needs his help
protecting her. He tells him they think
Javadi is on his way into the country. We
also learn that Saul is being considered
for CIA director and is expected to be told
so officially at a hunting retreat.
Carrie dumps her meds into the toilet.
Javadi meets a man who is waiting for
him with a new car and credit card.
Dana suggests to Leo they find someplace where nobody knows them. She
wants to escape ”who we are,” but Leo
doesn’t sound convinced it’s possible. While staring down at her Leo lets the car drift across
the center lane briefly.
Jessica drops by Carrie’s place and tells her about Dana and Leo’s homicide charge. Carrie
says it’s a terrible time for her but Jessica makes an emotional plea that works.
Carrie uses a burner phone and places a call to FBI Agent Hall, who is on the Brody family
detail. He wants nothing to do with her. Her next call is to Max. She tells him she wants set up
the ”yoga play” and will call him back on her regular phone. She hangs up and calls Max again,
making sure he knows they’re still on for yoga that morning.
Carrie runs into Quinn in the parking lot. He heard all of her phone calls and thinks she’s
taking a huge mistake not handing Dana off on him. He thinks one of the two surveillance teams
on her will figure out and she’ll be killed.

We see Saul arrive the lodge for the hunting trip. He speaks with Higgins, the president’s chief
of staff as well as Senator Lockhart.
Carrie goes to a yoga class. She walks in and in the back is a woman with the same haircut
wearing an identical outfit. This woman will pose as Carrie so she can slip her surveillance.
Carrie walks out the back where Max and Virgil are waiting for her with a car.
Lockhart requests a private hunting spot with Saul so the two can talk.
It is clear Carrie is waiting for Hall at his regular coffee spot. He’s running a tad late and Vigil
warns Carrie that she may not get back in time for the end of the yoga class.
We see Javadi watching a suburban home. A woman and a young boy play in the front yard.
Hall finally arrives and Carrie talks to him by his car. She warns that if he doesn’t intervene
and find Dana the girl could be in danger. And if that happens Carrie promises to expose him as
the agent who screwed up.
The yoga class ends and Carrie still hasn’t arrived. Quinn is forced to help delay one of man
following her to allow her time to return. It appears to work.
Lockhart and Saul discuss the future of spy work. He tells him that the president has a lot
of ideas about ways to change the CIA and much involves more technology and less reliance on
in-person agent work. Saul doesn’t like it and says he’s not going to compromise his feelings to
help earn Lockhart’s vote for him to be director. Lockhart then drops a bomb: It is he who will be
nominated for director and if Saul doesn’t go along with his ideas he’ll be out of a job.
Javadi arrives at luxury home and asks to be shows the interview room.
Dana and Leo stop for gas. While inside Dana hears a news report about the two of them being
missing. The report describes Leo and his brother’s death in a way that doesn’t gel with what
Leo’s told Dana. Dana confronts Leo about it and he is vague, attempting to change subjects.
Dana proceeds to jump out of the car and run off. Leo follows, leaving the car in the middle of
the street. He admits that playing the game with the gun with his brother was his idea. Dana is
furious that Leo lied to her and runs to a police cruiser as it pulls up.
Saul calls Carrie. He’s furious about the risk she took with Dana and says Quinn believes her
tails have disappeared. Saul thinks this means she’s been made.
That night Higgins makes the formal announcement about Lockhart getting the nomination.
Saul offers an impromptu toast of his own where he quickly makes it clear he doesn’t care for the

thoroughly for tracking devices. Quinn senses something might be going on and calls Saul, who
advises him to keep his distance. Eventually a concerned Quinn moves in and sees that Carrie
is gone. He tells Saul, who is pleased this means the mission is still a go.

Carrie turns the tables on the mastermind of the Langley bombing,
but recruiting one of Iran’s most powerful operatives has dangerous
consequences. Meanwhile Saul struggles to keep an intrusive Senator
Lockhart at bay, and Dana makes a radical decision that will change
the Brody family forever.
Quinn shows Saul the UAV video from a
drone that followed Carrie. They’ve lost
where she is but they hope that Carrie
can take care of herself while they continue to look.
Carrie sits in a chair while her blood
pressure and pulse are measured. Majid
Javadi enters the room and sits across
from her. He apologizes in the precautions they took in bringing her there. He
asks if she is ready for her polygraph test
and she is. She knows that he is second
in command of Iran’s intelligence directorate.
Mira tells Saul about the man that he
saw her with the night before. He tells her she doesn’t need to explain herself though. When she
met him they were separated, even though as Saul points out, that was her choice. He tells her
that the president will be nominate Andrew Lockhart as Director of the CIA by instead of him.
Saul says he’s fine but Mira asks him to just get angry for once in his life.
Majid continues to ask Carrie about working for the CIA. She says that no one knows about
their meetings and he asks if she can provide him with information on CIA operations. She says
she will talk to him alone and he sends his men out of the room. He tells her that the machine
says she is lying. She asks if they are alone and says they are done with the test. Carrie asks
about Majid’s embezzlement money and states that he is now an enemy of his own state. The two
leave the room and walk out of the house together.
Outside, Majid congratulates her on her knowledge and asks when she hatched this plan with
Saul. She says that he won’t get off this property and he hasn’t been arrested because Saul wants
77
Homeland Episode Guide
to talk with him. Carrie tells him to tell his men that she has been taken on but he insists on
following procedure. This requires that she take on a mission to prove her worth. She promises
to have the information by the end of the day. He returns inside to inform his men.
A man comes outside and asks Carrie to follow him. Once inside she asks where Majid is but
she is rushed to the garage and put in a car. She wants to speak with Majid once more before
she leaves but they give her no other option.
Saul asks for bank files from Venezuela and Fara delivers the files after he sits down at a desk.
The two discuss Majid’s history and the murders he committed. Fara asks if this mission is his
revenge but Saul says his revenge was when he helped Majid’s wife and son escape to America
four months later. He points out Majid’s wife, Fariba, in a picture. Fara says this won’t be easy
and Saul says their plan is a very delicate mission. Turning people against their own country
often makes them stubborn and Saul knows that Majid was already stubborn.
Majid’s men drive Carrie to the middle of nowhere and tell her to get out. They drive away and
she begins to run.
When Jessica arrives home, Dana asks her for some help. She wants to change her name
from Dana Brody to Jessica’s maiden name. She needs a ride to the office to get it changed.
Carrie gets home and calls Saul. She tells him what happened with Majid and where they
were located. Saul tells her that Quinn will provide the file for her and provide backup at the
meeting later. After hanging up, Carrie goes to the bathroom to administer a pregnancy test. It
shows that she is pregnant. She puts the test in a drawer full of other positive pregnancy tests.
Andrew Lockhart meets with Dar Adal, who apologizes that the director could not be there for
the meeting. The director did not tell Adal where he was but Andrew is glad Adal is there. Andrew
says the agency is a mess and being driven into the ground by the director. Adal agrees with
Andrew that change is needed in the agency. Andrew wants to reclaim the fear and respect that
the CIA once had and states that Adal would be perfect for this. He doesn’t want any surprises
on his first day as director.
Quinn arrives at Carrie’s place and says that they aren’t sure Majid is still at the house. He
gives her the files that she needs to show Majid to convince Iran that they recruited the right girl.
Quinn also provides Carrie with a new burner phone before leaving.
Jessica brings Dana in to change her name. She keeps her first name and pays for the change
herself. The man that processes her forms wishes them good luck and offers to pray for them.
Quinn drops Carrie off near the meeting spot. Saul sees movement through their drone and
sees a man get in a car and head toward the meeting place. He tells Carrie that this is it. Saul
leaves for a moment to take a call from Adal, who says that Andrew is anxious for a smooth
transfer of power. Fara quickly calls Saul back inside though. The man in the car isn’t heading
to the meeting place. Carrie runs and gets in the car with Quinn. Saul watches as the car slows
to a crawl in a residential area. It stops at a house that belongs to a man who rents it out to a
woman named Susan Roberts. The lease was originally signed by her ex-husband Nassar Javadi
who she has a two year old son with. Saul tells Carrie not to let Majid go in the house and warns
her to hurry.
Majid stands on the front porch ringing the doorbell when the woman who lives there answers
the door. He asks if she knows who he is and she does. Majid hears a baby crying and asks if it’s
his grandson. She asks him to wait a minute outside and he agrees. As she shuts the door, he
kicks it open and shoots her in the head. Majid is standing next to the baby when Fariba enters
the room. She sees the body of Susan but Majid stops her from running to her. Majid hits her
to the ground and stabs her multiple times. Quinn and Carrie enter but it’s too late for the two
women. Majid says that he’s now ready to see Saul. Fariba was Majid’s ex-wife who Saul helped
move to America. Saul tells Quinn to get Majid and the murder weapon out of there quickly. He
tells them to park Quinn’s car down the road and drive away in Majid’s. Saul instructs Carrie to
leave the baby in the house.
Jessica opens the front door for one of Dana’s friends, Angela. Dana was planning on moving
into Angela’s because she can’t be a Brody anymore. Jessica says she can’t leave but Dana feels
that she can’t live this life anymore. She says Nicholas nearly killed her and she needs to leave.
Jessica hugs her and tells Dana how much she loves her. Chris hugs her too and Jessica asks
her to wait a minute. Jessica goes into the other room and Dana leaves the house. Jessica chases
her down and offers her a card with $300 on it. They say their goodbyes and Dana leaves to live
with Angela’s family.

With an old adversary in custody, Saul makes the gamble of his career. Carrie and Quinn scramble to contain a local police investigation,
while Mira finds her marriage at a crossroads.
Crime scene investigators go over the
murder scene of Fariba and Susan. They
are still looking for the murder weapon
when one of the cops returns with a security camera image from a neighbor. The
picture shows Peter Quinn at the front
door.
Fara questions Majid about his embezzled money. His crimes are punishable by death but he asks what the point
of this is. Fara leaves the room after he
gets to her. Carrie comforts her and says
that manipulating people is what he does.
Majid asks Saul if he is proud for the
capture and assumes that he wants everything he knows. He believes that there is a deal to be made since he’s not in prison yet. If he is
to talk he wants security and his money. Saul says he has it wrong because he doesn’t just want
intelligence. He has plans for Majid to go back to Iran and work for him. Majid doesn’t think it
will work but Saul insists that he will go back. It’s up to Majid if he goes back as Saul’s asset or
a traitor to the revolution. Saul warns that Majid will face torture and death if he doesn’t talk.
He agrees to talk but refuses to go back to Iran.
Peter gets out of his shower and opens the front door for Dar Adul. Adul asks why Peter has
been MIA but he just says to talk to Saul. There was a double murder today and Adul shows the
photo of Peter at the scene. He hopes they nail him for the crime.
Peter heads over to Saul’s and shows him the photo from the crime scene. Saul tells Peter
to stay low and asks Carrie to talk to a police officer that owes her a favor. She is to get Peter’s
photo taken down from the police blotter. They are through if anyone suspects Majid is in the
country. Peter asks about the progress with Majid and Saul says it is going slow. Saul returns
to Majid and asks if he has come to terms with his situation. Majid asks how the double murder
will be covered up and states that Fariba deserved it for being unfaithful to him.
81
Homeland Episode Guide
Carrie heads to the crime scene and meets with her friend Captain Lonza. She thought it was
going to be a private meeting but detectives Johnson and Gortz have a few questions. They ask
who the man in the surveillance photo is but she says it’s all classified. She feels sick and needs
to use the bathroom.
Saul converses with Majid and shows him some small bombings that have happened. Majid
says that he should include the CIA bombings as well. Saul says they have been waiting for a
chance to do something and now Majid has given him the opportunity. If Majid goes back to
Tehran and backs him, Saul will do the same for him.
Lonza informs Carrie that there isn’t much he can do. The detectives want to talk to the man
in the photo about what happened.
Carrie returns to Saul’s place and runs into Fara. She’s upset that Majid is being sent back
to Iran. Carrie tells Peter that the police want to question him and he agrees to do it as long as
he doesn’t say anything about Majid. They hope it will buy enough time to get Majid out of the
country. It’s Carrie’s job to get Majid back with his men because Saul has a meeting with Senator
Lockhart.
Saul informs Majid that Carrie will accompany him all the way to the plane back to Iran. He
also asks who is responsible for the bomb at the CIA. Majid says he doesn’t know but eventually
admits that it wasn’t Brody. He only knows that it was one of Abu Nazir’s men. Before Saul heads
out he makes a phone call to Mira. She is with another man while Saul tells her that he does
mind her being with her friend from Mumbai. He won’t be home until late and she says she will
see him then.
Peter arrives at the house where the double murder took place. He notices that the blood is
still on the ground as he takes a seat at the dining room table.
As Majid prepares to go, Carrie hands him a sheet of what he will say. She also hands him the
evidence that they supposedly got from Carrie. It’s a computer program that they used to track
him. He’s ready to go back to Iran now.
Saul arrives at his office and is confronted by Adul when he arrives. Adul says he thought
they trusted each other and that causes Saul to stop walking. Saul says he will only tell Adul but
he says that Lockhart is getting suspicious.
Majid asks whose idea it was to rat him out as bait. She doesn’t say anything so he assumes it
was Saul’s idea. He says that he must have done something terrible to convince her to get Majid.
He admits that Brody didn’t set the bomb up but he doesn’t know who did.
Detective Johnson questions Peter about the victim’s and their relationships to each other.
Peter doesn’t answer anything and Johnson states that he just wants to learn what happened.
He asks if Peter killed the daughter and mother for national security and Peter says yes. Johnson
asks if Peter’s people have done anything other than make things worse.
Saul meets with Lockhart and Adul in his office. He admits that he has recruited Majid to
work for him and blackmailed him to get him to work with them. Lockhart doesn’t think it was
smart to think that they could get an enemy to work for them. He says Saul has left the agency
a mess but Saul says for the first time they have an agent in the Iranian government. Lockhart
wants to know how it happened though.
Majid says they are almost there and is surprised that Carrie hasn’t asked who moved the
bomb. She doesn’t ask about it and he takes it as a sign that she doesn’t want the truth. She
says that she does want the truth but doesn’t believe that she will get it from him.
Lockhart asks about Majid’s dead wife and step-daughter. Saul admits that it was Majid and
Lockhart is taken back that he was in the country. Saul reveals that Carrie lured him into the
country. Lockhart knew nothing about the plan and Adul says this is the first he has heard of it.
He wants Carrie right now and tells Saul to ground the plane. Saul refuses to though and says
capturing Majid is short sighted and ineffective. He says this is a once in a lifetime transformation
that could change the middle east. Lockhart wants to call the president and Saul locks him in
a room. Adul won’t help him and Lockhart says they are both dead. Saul pushes a button that
turns the lights out. Lockhart turns around and is surprised by what he sees.
At the plane, Majid tells Carrie that she had her chance. As he walks away she calls out
to him, she wants to know the truth. Majid says that the man who built the bomb and moved
the SUV is still in the country. He also states that the man who brought them together, Majid’s
lawyer Bennett, knows where the bomber is. Majid promises that after this, Bennett is no longer
his lawyer.
82
Homeland Episode Guide
Saul tracks Majid’s plane and finds that it’s out of American airspace. He apologizes to Adul
for leaving him out of the loop. Adul forgives him because he was acting director of the CIA.
Peter gets up from the dining room table and leaves the house. Carrie is outside waiting for
him and asks how it went. The police are standing down after he confessed to it. Peter says he
feels that he’s through with the CIA. He doesn’t think anything justifies the damage they do.
Carrie says he can’t quit yet because she needs help proving who the real bomber was. Peter
agrees to help her with whatever she needs.
Saul returns home and finds Mira in the bedroom. She asks how his day was and he says it
was actually really good. He hugs her and asks forgiveness for forgetting how beautiful she is.

After new information comes to light, Carrie and Quinn pursue a key
suspect in the Langley bombing. Saul deals with political backlash
while Fara discovers the toll an intelligence job can take.
Saul prepares breakfast for Mira in bed.
She asks if there’s any chance he could
skip work today but he has a meeting
with Mike Higgins at the White House.
Quinn tries to make connections between various men and Bennett. Carrie
believes what Majid said but she needs
evidence before talking to Saul about the
bomber. She wonders where Fara is because she was supposed to meet them
over an hour ago. Meanwhile, Fara sits in
her car in the parking lot before driving
away.
Saul meets with Mike at the White
House. Lockhart is also in the room and
Mike says that he has made some serious
allegations. Saul admits that he had Majid in custody and turned him to their side. Lockhart doesn’t believe that Majid will help them
but Saul says it is best that they have him spying on Iran and the Hezbollah. Saul asks Lockhart
to leave the room because his clearance level isn’t enough to hear the rest of Saul’s plans. Mike
asks about phase 2 and Saul hands him a folder. Saul’s plan calls for an eventual regime change
once Majid moves up to a senior military position.
In a restaurant, Mira informs Alan that she is giving her marriage with Saul a second chance.
He’s upset that she’s going back to Saul and he tells Mira he loves her. Mira asks him not to say
this and leaves when he doesn’t stop.
Dar Adul tells Saul that his plan is genius. Saul is leaving soon and Carrie can’t know. The two
men meet with Carrie and Quinn. Carrie gets angry when she thinks that Saul isn’t interested
in catching the real bomber. Quinn outlines their plan to flush Bennett out and asks Adul if he’s
comfortable making an approach, which he is.
Fara return home and claims that she’s not feeling good. She allows the nurse to go home
and offers to care for her father for the day. Her father worries that she will lose her job at the
bank but she says it’s safe.

Homeland Episode Guide
Dar Adul arrives at a bar to meet with Bennett. He tells him that his firm has come up more
than once. He is attending a top secret meeting where Bennett is the agenda. Adul offers that
Bennett come clean but he won’t fall for that. He says they can come after him because he has
nothing to hide.
Carrie sends a cryptic text before entering a church. Inside, she stands next to Paul Franklin.
He reminds her that she is an agent for Majid but she says she just consulted. Franklin wants
her to confirm the report and help Bennett protect himself and his business.
Carrie returns home and calls Saul. She says it’s on and Bennett’s company is panicking.
Carrie asks for some personal time and Saul agrees. He knows how much she has been through
and promises to get the real bomber. Saul gets off the phone and returns to dinner with Mira. He
needs to leave for a few days and is sad to say that she can’t come with him.
At the hospital, Carrie gets an ultrasound done. She doesn’t want to know her baby’s gender
though. Carrie talks to her doctor about her test results. The doctor suggests that she try to have
less stress at work. She needs to change her behavior if she wants the baby to be healthy.
Fara opens the front door for Mitchell Clawson from the IG’s office. Mitchell asks her questions
about why she hasn’t been to work and why she visited the scene of the double murder. She says
she wanted to see where it happened because of how much it upset her. Fara tells Mitchell to
tell the director that she’s fine but Mitchell suggests that she tell him herself when she goes into
work tomorrow. Her father asks why she is helping the government because it could result in
family members being hurt. She says she is American and leaves.
Carrie is debriefed about her mission details in trying to use Franklin to catch the bomber.
She enters the same church and sits with Franklin. Carrie says that his firm is connected to the
man that set up the bomb. She asks if the man is still in the country and Franklin admits that
he is. He says that Bennett will be safe but Carries doesn’t trust his assurance. After she leaves,
Franklin calls Bennett and says that they have a line on their friend. Outside, Carrie listens in
on their conversation. Bennett feels that they are safe because the man’s name isn’t known. He
tells Franklin to get the man out of the country and orders him to give the man a new identity.
The team tracks a text that Franklin sends out. The text gives the location of a hotel.
Mira enters the front door of her house, just as Alan finishes hacking her computer. He sneaks
out of the house when she enters the bathroom. He returns to his car and listens in on the house.
Carrie watches as Franklin arrives at the hotel. The team is surrounding the area and they
are told not to move until Franklin leaves. Franklin makes a call to a man in one of the hotel
rooms. The man tells Franklin the room number. Franklin takes a silencer out of his car and
prepares to enter the room. Carrie doesn’t want to let the bomber be killed but Dar Adul orders
the team to stand down. She gets out of her van and says that Saul promised her the bomber
alive. Dar Adul warns her that they will stop her if she continues toward the hotel. Quinn warns
her to break away but she says she can’t. Quinn takes the shot and Carrie yells as she goes
down. Franklin hears a noise but continues on to the room. When the man opens the door he
shoots him with the silenced gun.
Once Franklin is inside, the team rushes to pick Carrie up. Carrie wakes up and says that
something is going on. She asks Quinn where Saul is. Inside the hotel room, Franklin pours acid
into a bathtub that contains the bomber.
Saul arrives outside of a large building and meets with El Nino. He is lead into the building
and they take the stairs to an apartment. El Nino shows him to a chained door. Inside, Saul finds
a very rough looking Nicholas Brody.

Carrie reunites with Brody, but the circumstances are more difficult
than either of them could have imagined. Meanwhile Saul gets a win
from an unlikely source, and Dana grapples with her new life away
from home.
Carrie wakes up in the naval hospital. A
doctor explains her injury and says she
will be there as long as she needs to be.
The doctor informs her that her baby will
be fine.
Men stand over Brody as he lies in a
bed. He tries to resist them but they hold
him down. Saul watches this over a live
feed with Dar Adul. Adul asks if he will be
ready in time and Saul hopes so. Yousef
Turani comes in and says that Brody is
going through withdrawals. Saul needs
him to go cold turkey because he needs
Brody to be functional. Back in the room
Turani struggles with Brody who begs for
his drugs.
Lockhart enters Carrie’s hospital room and asks how she feels. He says she will be up walking
soon but she won’t be allowed to leave the room. He states that the CIA charter doesn’t cover
missions on American soil. Lockhart looked into her history and asks what Saul was doing in
Venezuela. She didn’t even know he was there though.
Adul gets off the phone with Carrie and tells Saul that Carrie knows about Venezuela now.
The plan is the same, Carrie is to be kept in the hospital away from Brody. He doesn’t know how
Lockhart found out and tells Adul to have their offices and homes swept for bugs.
A man helps Turani to clean off Brody after he soils himself. Turani tells Saul that they
still have another ten days before Brody is clean, but they need it done in six. Adul suggests a
Nigerian plant that is outlawed in the US. It will make the withdrawals go by faster but there are
some bad side effects such as violent hallucinations.
Adul’s men find a bug on Saul’s computer mouse. They take it off and track it to a location in
Washington.

Homeland Episode Guide
Brody sings to himself and gets angry at a hallucination of Thomas Patrick Walker. He slaps
himself in the head and asks the camera what he was given. As Saul watches, he destroys a
chair in his room and uses one of the broken legs to stab himself repeatedly. Saul rushes in to
stop him but Brody has a flashback to when he was imprisoned by terrorists. Turani bandages
Brody up and says he will be asleep for awhile.
Virgil and the other man that Adul sent to sweep for bugs sit in a van spying on the house
the bug was tracked to. Virgil thinks that the house was leased to Mossad and they spot Alan
Bernard leave the house.
When Brody wakes up, Saul is sitting next to his bed. He wasn’t sure that Brody would make
it through alive. Brody asks what’s next but Saul says that will be up to him. Brody dug himself
a hole that he can’t escape from but Saul might know a way. He offers Brody a chance to be a
marine again, the man he was before he was broken. Brody says he’s done but Saul insists on
him doing this one last thing. He wants to die but Saul says he’ll see about that.
On a boat, Turani and his men take Brody to the middle of a lake. He tells them to throw
Brody overboard. Turani wants to go after him but Hafez Azizi says he will surface. He doesn’t
surface though and they jump in to retrieve him.
Azizi informs Saul and Adul that Brody has no desire to live. Adul orders that they force feed
him because they don’t have six months for him to get better.
Saul visits Carrie at the hospital. She says she was about to clear Brody but he states that
he doesn’t believe that Brody escaped the country while she was unconscious for 14 hours. He
tells her about Venezuela and she asks how Brody is. Saul tells her that he’s not well but he was
found like that. Brody is in Virginia with a special ops team. Saul has a play that involves Brody
and he hopes Carrie will convince him that it’s in everyone’s interest. His plan is to take down
the head of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, Majid’s boss and the greatest roadblock to peace. Saul
believes Brody can get to him and then Majid will be the head of Iran. He hopes that with Majid
in power, Iran will be able to have real talks with the US. He asks if that is worth Carrie’s time.
Carrie visits Brody in his room. She says she came as soon as she heard he was here. He
rolls back over without saying anything. Carrie returns to Saul and asks when he needs Brody
ready by. He needs to be ready soon, before Lockhart’s confirmation hearings start. She asks
what happened to him in Venezuela. He explains and then she asks for a car.
Virgil shows Saul photos of the man that left the house where the bugs led to. Saul explains
how the man has been with his wife and doesn’t suspect that Mira knew of his intelligence
background. Virgil followed him after he left the house and photographed him meeting with
Lockhart.
Turani and his men accompany Carrie and Brody to a motel. Brody recognizes Dina and
struggles to get out of the car. The men hold him back and he yells at Carrie.
Saul barges in to Lockhart’s office and shows him the photos that were taken. Lockhart says
that Alan is writing a piece on him. Saul explains that Alan has already confessed to planting a
listening device in Saul’s home at the request of Lockhart. He says the accusation is preposterous
but Saul warns what could happen if he reports this. Saul asks him to postpone his confirmation
for another month and won’t release the photos. Lockhart asks why he would do this and Saul
says it would destroy his wife and the agency. Lockhart agrees to the deal.
Back in his room, Brody asks Carrie what’s going on with his daughter. He wants to see her
again and tell her that he’s innocent. Carrie asks if Brody wants redemption for the suicide vest
and the death of two people in Venezuela. She asks him to do what Saul asks for the sake of
Dana. He can prove his innocence by being willing to do what is asked. Carrie promises that they
will get him ready.
Brody joins the men outside for a run but quickly collapses. A man tries to help but Azizi
insists that he stand up himself. Carrie watches from her car. 16 days later Brody is back in
shape and doing great with his training.
At a debriefing meeting, the plan is outlined to the team and Brody. Brody questions how he
will get out after the assassination. After the meeting he asks Carrie if he can see Dana. He wants
to see her before the mission because he knows it’s a long shot that he will make it back safely.
He refuses to leave for the mission before being able to see Dana.
Carrie takes Brody to where Dana is. Before he goes she warns him that Dana tried to kill
herself two weeks after the bomb went off. Brody knocks on the door and tells her who it is. She
cautiously opens the door and backs up when he moves in for a hug. Dana asks how he found
88

her and allows him inside. He apologizes but Dana doesn’t want to get close to him. Brody says
he’s innocent and explains that he has to leave soon. She asks if he ever wondered if she wanted
to see him. She doesn’t want to see him ever again. On the way back to the base, Brody tells
Carrie that he will come back from Tehran and not just for Dana.
Saul sits in wait for their return. He isn’t happy about what Carrie has done but she says
they need to find a way to trust each other again. The team heads out and Carrie cries when she
sees Brody. She tells him that she’ll see him on the other side.

Brody embarks on a high stakes mission, but his fragile condition
threatens the entire operation. Quinn makes an uncomfortable discovery about Carrie, while a sudden crisis forces Fara to rejoin the
team.
We open with Quinn greeting Carrie at
the CIA. He apologizes for shooting her
but she doesn’t want to talk about it.
While she was in the hospital he looked at
her records and he now knows she’s pregnant. He wonders if perhaps she should
avoid this part of the mission given her
connection to Brody. Carrie says the baby
isn’t his.
We see Brody and his team are in Iraq,
a few miles from the Iran border.
Carrie and Quinn enter the secure
room where the operation is being conducted. Carrie is told the guys are waiting
for nightfall.
Adal meets with Higgins. Adal assures him that the risk of the mission is worth the potential
reward.
Carrie asks about the border patrol Brody will be turning himself over to. It’s clear they aren’t
100 percent sure what he’ll be facing.
Brody goes over the backstory he’ll use to tell the Iranians regarding how he got there. It
involves him getting connected with Al Qaeda.
Saul enters the command center. The drone temporarily goes offline and it’s clear Carrie is
nervous.
Brody prays and the team gets into two vehicles and begins the trip to the border. Via night
vision they see that foreigners are in the process of paying off local officials with gas. It means
91
Homeland Episode Guide
the road to the border is blocked. With the drone offline the guys get out of one of the trucks and
pretend to be having car issues while waiting for a new route from Langley. Brody is getting edgy.
Back in Langley the drone comes back online and the route is scouted.
During this time three Iraqi police officers approach. They don’t buy the cover story, thinking
the men are Al Qaeda. The officers decide to inspect the vehicle and see Brody in the backseat. At
this point the order is given and CIA team quickly kills the three men. One of the officers is killed
near Brody, and his face ends up covered in the man’s blood. While the bodies are disposed of
Brody panics and runs off. One of the CIA men grabs Brody and is able to talk him down from
the ledge. They are ordered to the alternate crossing point.
Adal convinces Higgins that the president doesn’t need to be told about the three police officers
being killed. He agrees, but gets the JSOC commander on the phone.
Lockhart and the general in charge of JSOC arrive at Saul’s CIA operation headquarters.
Saul goes out to meet them and Lockhart says they’re there to ”advise and observe.” Lockhart
points out that he’ll inherit whatever comes of this mission. Saul lets the general inside and asks
Lockhart about giving him more breathing room. Lockhart tells Saul he’s lucky Higgins calls
them rather than the president or the national security advisor.
Brody is given final instructions for reaching the drop point from. Word comes in that there is
an Iraqi patrol nearby. This shouldn’t be a huge problem, but it means they’ll have to be careful.
Only one of the men will take Brody to the drop point.
The truck Brody and the other men are riding in hits a land mine of some kind.
When Brody cannot be reached Higgins starts to panic. He calls Saul and suggests the possibility of hitting the spot with a drone, which could be spun as a U.S. mission to take out Brody.
Saul refuses to order a strike on his own men.
At this point Brody and the other man crawl from the vehicle. Brody seems okay but the other
man has lost a leg. Brody pulls him into a nearby shed and radios the other guys to carefully
follow their path to help get them out. A more comfortable Brody seems to be reverting to his
Marine days. The other guys arrive but begin taking fire from the patrol. With helicopters eight
minutes away the only options seems to be fighting their way out of their in the remaining vehicle
and abandon the mission. Saul turns the mission over the JSOC general, who orders them to
coordinate a withdrawal in conjunction with air support from a drone. Saul leaves the room
dejected. Brody hears the order and realizes what is happening. He doesn’t want to abandon the
mission. Brody refuses to go with the other guys and eventually Carrie is put on with him to
attempt to talk him down. She tells him that without any extraction plan he won’t come out of
their alive. It doesn’t work and Brody sprints for the border by himself, dodging sniper fire along
the way. The missile strike is ordered. At the last minute one of the other guys decides to help
Brody. The two of them come up with a plan, but when they get up to sprint run right into an
enormous military unit. Brody immediately requests asylum in Iran. It appears to work.
Back at HQ they get word that the Iranians are saying they have two prisoners. The plan is
back in business.
Carrie goes to Saul and gives him the word that ”you are still in the game.”
The other man asks Brody what to expect in terms of torture. Brody says he’ll eventually be
broken and the man says he hopes he’ll be able to hold out long enough for Brody to execute the
mission.
Carrie goes to see Fara. She tells her that their plans have changed and mentions Fara having
an uncle in Tehran. Fara immediately resists, saying that it will put her family in too much
danger. Carrie says all they need is a safe house and Fara appears to consider it.
The guys hear a noise and Javadi walks in the room with another guard. Brody tells him he’s
formally seeking asylum. Javadi asks to be left alone with the two men and asks Brody if he’s
”ready to go with me to Tehran.” He then shoots the other CIA operative. The other guard rushes
back into the room and Javadi tells Brody: ”Now. We go to Tehran.”

Brody’s loyalty to the mission wavers when he meets a ghost from his
past. As Lockhart’s confirmation looms, Saul stares into the precipice
between success and failure.
Saul is led by an agent to a man in a cell.
The man is Alan Bernard and Saul accuses the prisoner of spying. Alan says
he only caught him with his wife and
asks what he wants. Saul is there to get
him out, he needs Mossad agents on the
ground in Tehran. Alan suggests that he
just speak to Mossad directly but Saul
can’t do that. He persuades Alan that it’s
in everyone’s best interests if he helps
them out.
Brody is interrogated and filmed by
one of Majid’s men. He explains how he
has come to be in Iran and asks for asylum. Majid joins in on the questioning and asks who sent
him here. Brody requests a break but Majid refuses to stop.
Carrie checks into a hotel in Iran. She speaks French to the concierge and is given a room.She
leaves the hotel soon after arriving. She heads to Masud Sherazi’s house, Fara’s uncle, and asks
about the package. He offers to give it to her after she explains what is going on. She admits that
they work at the CIA and she hands Masud a photo of Fara. He pulls a phone out of a drawer
and hands it to Carrie. Masud asks if there’s anything else she needs.
General Akbari asks for a meeting with Majid. He’s busy but he agrees to meet in his office.
Akbari asks if Brody is telling the truth. Majid is still verifying the story and suggests that Akbari
sit down with Brody himself, to make a judgement.
Carrie returns to her hotel room with the phone and calls Saul. He mentions that he has two
agents on the ground, ready to meet Carrie. She loses focus when she notices how pregnant she
looks in the mirror. She ends the call so that she can prepare for tomorrow.
The next day. Carrie meets with the two agents in Masud’s house. She explains the mission
and the two men don’t believe that Akbari can be taken down. They are to get Brody to safety
after he finishes the assassination. They suggest Brody uses cyanide while they create a diversion using C4. Carrie volunteers to get the cyanide to Brody. When she returns to her hotel, the
93
Homeland Episode Guide
concierge mentions that two men have been waiting for her. They lead her through an underground tunnel to Majid. He tells Carrie that Akbari will be meeting with Brody soon. She hands
him the cyanide to give to Brody. He reminds her that the primary goal for the mission is to kill
Akbari, not rescue Brody.
Back in Washington, Saul outlines the mission to his team. When Brody is near Akbari, one
of the Mossad agents will detonate a bomb, allowing Brody to murder Akbari. He will then exit
the building and be delivered to a safe house a few hours later. Peter asks where Carrie is and
why she won’t be pulled out first. Saul says that’s not the way that Carrie sees it.
In the morning, Brody is woken up by a man who instructs him to put some clothes on. He
is lead to the building where the mission was supposed to take place. Carrie is surprised when
Brody is taken away by the men. She follows in a car with one of the Mossad agents. Akbari
heads to a house and Brody’s car follows close behind. Saul informs Carrie that the meeting
is on. Carrie stops nearby to assess the situation. The Mossad agents want to wait for another
chance but she says this is the only chance they have. The bomb is in place when Brody meets
with Akbari in the street. As Brody approaches, he moves the cyanide into his hand. When Brody
gets near him though, Akbari gets in a car and his men drive off. Brody is led into a nearby house.
Saul wants to know who lives there and Dar Adul informs him that Nassrin lives there. He tells
Carrie and she recognizes Nassrin as Abu Nazir’s widow. Saul explains to Adul that Akbari is
using Nassrin to check out Brody. He had previously lived with her for two years.
Brody speaks to Nassrin about the struggles they have both been through. He explains that
he had nowhere but Tehran to go to. He wants to stop running. When he exits the house, a crowd
of supporters have gathered outside. They praise Brody and ask why he is there. He greets them
and states that he’s seeking asylum in the only place he can find peace. He is led into a car where
a guard tells him that he’s a big man in Tehran. He hangs his arm out the window and throws
the cyanide away.
Six days later, Saul watches a television interview where Brody states that Iran is his home.
Lockhart tells him that the mission was always a long shot, especially the Brody portion. Adul
doesn’t think that Brody will ever get near Akbari now. Brody didn’t meet with the rendezvous
so Lockhart thinks he’s a serious liability now. Lockhart believes that Brody is actually on Iran’s
side and worries that he will expose Majid. He suggests that they kill Brody because the president
wants it resolved.
Saul calls Carrie who believes that Brody is still trying to carry out the plan. He tells Carrie
to come back on a plane but she doesn’t want to abandon Brody. She agrees to talk about it
more when she’s back in America. Saul doesn’t think she will come back and tells Adul to carry
through with the plan. Carrie calls Masud and asks for one more favor.
Masud greets Brody at the mosque he attends and slips him a phone. He states that a friend
will call him now. Brody manages to get a moment away from his guard and receives a call from
Carrie. She’s across the court yard and warns him that Saul is nervous. Carrie’s worried that
they are going to cut their losses and kill Brody. He says he has nowhere to go but she pleads
with him to come with her. She sees two men and warns him that he’s being hunted right now.
He hangs up and tells her to get out of here. Brody manages to escape from the two Mossad
agents. Back home, Lockhart wonders who could have warned him. Saul calls Carrie to tell her
that she screwed up their plan.
Brody runs to Nassrin’s house and tells her that he needs to speak with Akbari. He claims to
have knowledge about Majid. She agrees to set up a meeting.
Adul informs Saul that Majid told him that Brody has arrived at the Revolutionary headquarters. Lockhart believes that Brody is about to bring the whole thing down.
Brody is brought into Akbari’s office to speak with him. Once the two are alone, Akbari asks
why anyone would try to kill Brody. He states that the CIA has planned for Majid to take Akbari’s
job. Brody admits that he was sent to take Akbari out so that Majid could take his job. Akbari
thanks him for the information and promises to take care of Majid. Brody grabs a bowl and
knocks Akbari out with it. He finds a pillow and holds it over his face. Akbari starts to regain
consciousness but Brody finishes him off. He takes a cell phone from the desk and calls Carrie.
He tells her of Akbari’s death and asks her to get him out of there.

Lockhart steps in as the new CIA Director, endangering Saul’s plan to
extract safely Carrie and Brody from Iran.
Brody rushes to hide Akbari’s body and
clean up the blood. He quickly washes his
hands and grabs Akbari’s gun. He leaves
the office and makes his way out of the
building. A man stops him at the exit and
asks for his visitor’s pass back. The secretary enters Akbari’s office and finds him
dead. Outside the building, Brody gets
into a black van. The gate of the compound is opened just as men come out of
the building screaming. Brody holds his
gun to the driver and orders him to drive.
Carrie calls Saul and tells him that
Brody went through with the mission.
She knows because he called her from Akbari’s office. She’s waiting for Brody and Saul thinks
that the Iranians are after her. In order to carry through with the extraction plan, Saul needs
confirmation of Akbari’s death. Carrie arrives at the spot she agreed to meet Brody.
Brody orders his driver to drop him off outside of the city. He tells the man to walk away and
Brody takes the man’s phone and car. Brody arrives at the meeting place that Carrie specified
but she isn’t there. He leaves and gets back in the car. Carrie gets in the car and drives over to
her car. She wants to switch vehicles and make their way out of the city.
Majid informs Saul that Akbari’s death is true. He wants to capture Brody so that he has a
guarantee to be promoted. He asks Saul for Brody’s location and promises to protect Carrie. Saul
says he will call back later. He asks Dar Adul what they should do. Dar thinks that Brody should
be captured to ensure Majid’s rise to power. He suggests that Saul slow down since it’s his last
full day as director. Saul refuses and orders Dar to initiate the extraction plan.
As Carrie makes her way to the safehouse, Brody tells her about his father. He ducks down
when Carrie spots a car heading towards them. They arrive at the safehouse and Carrie searches
through it. Brody goes to the bathroom and stares at himself in the mirror.
Saul’s team watches a news report on the assassination of Akbari. Dar asks Scott where the
extraction will take place. He says it will be done in Afghanistan by a team of men. There are
95
Homeland Episode Guide
additional men on standby if the the team needs to fight its way out of Iran. Dar agrees to pass
his concerns onto Saul, who is still director for another 11 hours.
Carrie and Brody do their best to stay warm in the safehouse. She asks him what’s going on
with him and he says that he just murdered a man. She explains that he was a terrible man who
murdered many children. Saul calls to promise that he will get them out safely. The team should
be there before sunrise to evacuate them. He’s leaving for Germany and says he will meet them
there. Brody asks what will happen when they get home. She doesn’t know and asks what he
wants to happen. Brody never expected to get this far so doesn’t like to think about it. He doesn’t
feel that this mission fully redeems him though. She thinks it does though and asks why he
agreed to the mission in the first place. He isn’t sure any more. Carrie reveals that she’s carrying
his child. She doesn’t know if they will be together when they get back but she doesn’t regret
having his child.
Carrie watches Brody sleep and wakes him up when she hears a helicopter. They go outside
but are surrounded by soldiers. Brody is taken away and Carrie tries to reason with a man who
approaches her. She asks to speak with Majid but the man insists that he already knows. The
soldiers take Brody away and leave Carrie at the safehouse. She calls Saul but he doesn’t know
about what’s happening. Saul hangs up and meets with his team. Lockhart is the one who called
Majid, on the president’s authority. He tells Saul that he’s no longer director. Dar argues that
it’s better in the long run to have Brody captured. Lockhart claims to also be protecting Saul’s
legacy.
In her hotel, Carrie gathers her things to leave. Two men stop her in the lobby and force her
into a car outside. The men take her to Majid. He says that Brody is in prison and she can’t see
him. He has been sentenced to death by hanging. He is scheduled to be hanged in public during
the night. Majid reminds her that the mission has been a success and it’s better if Brody dies.
Brody has accomplished an amazing feat and now everyone will see him for what he truly was,
for what Carrie knew him to be. She asks to see him but Majid says he’s at peace and he should
be left alone. He concedes and allows her to have a phone call with Brody.
As Brody washes himself in his cell, a guard hands him a phone. Carrie tells him that she will
make Saul save him but he tells her not to. He wants this to be over and he feels ready to die.
He asks her for one thing, to not be at his execution. She insists on being there though. A guard
asks for the phone back and Brody hangs up.
Sitting in his office, Saul receives a call from Carrie. He wishes there was something he could
do but the president has already weighed in. It’s too late to save Brody so Saul apologizes. Carrie
breaks down crying.
During the night, Carrie and Masud head to the square where Brody’s execution will take
place. The crowd begins to yell when Brody arrives in a police car. He is handcuffed and led to
the noose. Carrie watches from the fence. Akbari’s wife places the noose around Brody’s neck. A
man gives the signal to the crane operator and Brody is lifted into the air. Carrie cries and begins
to climb the fence to yell out to him. She is knocked down from the fence by a police officer. When
she stands back up, Brod is dead.
Four months later, Saul relaxes in Greece with Mira. She asks about an article on the front
page. Iran has decided to allow inspectors access to the country’s nuclear sites in exchange for
the lift of economic sanctions. She attributes this to Saul but he says he wasn’t alone. He has
tried to get in contact with Carrie but she hasn’t returned his calls. He will soon be returning to
Washington to attend a commemorative ceremony.
Carrie enters Lockhart’s office and he explains why he couldn’t keep Saul on the team. He
asks what she thinks about her heading to Istanbul and she agrees as long as she can pick
her team. Before leaving, Carrie tells Lockhart that she thinks Brody deserves a star. Lockhart
doesn’t want to though because of Brody’s previous actions. She guarantees that his refusal
won’t be an ongoing problem between them. Outside, Carrie informs Peter that she’s station
chief in Istanbul. She wanted her baby because of Brody but it took her til the very end to realize
that she can’t be a mother. The reasons she will make a great station chief are the same reasons
she won’t make a good mother. Peter messed up his chance at being a parent and thinks it would
be really sad if she messed her chance up.
Saul meets Dar at a restaurant. Dar thinks Saul is better in the private sector but it isn’t for
him. Dar believes that Saul misses the CIA and would come back in an instant but Saul denies
the claim.

Frank and Maggie visit Carrie to talk about her baby. They bring her a bunch of gifts but
Carrie has to let them down. She explains that she’s moving to Istanbul and can’t keep her baby.
Maggie thinks that the baby will help to ground Carrie. She doesn’t feel love for the baby and
only feels scared. Frank offers to take the baby if Carrie doesn’t want her. Maggie wants everyone
to calm down and wait until the baby is born. Carrie admits she is scared and very sad.
At the commemorative ceremony, Lockhart reads out the names of those who died during the
year. Saul wanders over to Carrie after the ceremony and asks how she is. He congratulates her
on Istanbul and knows she deserves it. She isn’t happy that Saul is no longer working with the
CIA. Dar calls Carrie away to meet with Lockhart. Saul says goodbye to Carrie and she wishes
him luck in New York.
Carrie heads to the wall where stars represent fallen agents. She takes out a marker and
draws a star for Brody.

As CIA Chief of Station in Kabul, Carrie makes a critical decision when
her counterpart in Islamabad delivers urgent intelligence on a high
value target. Back in the States, Saul struggles to adjust to his new
role in the private sector.
Carrie rides in a car looking out the window. She’s not in America. She tells the
driver to pull over and says she wants to
walk the rest of the way. They don’t like
it but let her out anyway. She’s in Kabul,
Afghanistan. She walks down the street
followed by a military guard. Her phone
rings and she says she’s on her way. She
gets back in the SUV and they head to
an American site and she comes into an
ops room. They call her chief and tell her
there is eight minutes until the operation.
She asks if they can use a drone and the
guy says no. She says she needs to talk
to Islamabad and goes to another room.
She talks to Sandy and he says the
guy is number four on the hit list. She
asks for the source of intel and he say the same as the other hits. She says they usually have
had time to double check the source. He says with Haissam there is no way to double check. He
says the guy is cagey and they discuss they fact that he trained with the US military. She asks
her tech if they’ve been able to confirm that he’s there and he says a car is a match. He reminds
her that the source has been solid.
She’s worried about collateral damage, but Haissam is a known killer of US soldiers. Carrie
says to send the team in and they call Smash 11 and tell them to move in. The tech asks her to
stick around and says there is something planned for after but she wants to Skype her sister.
She stays and they watch the op come down. The building is blown sky high. They clear the
101
Homeland Episode Guide
airspace and Carrie says to shut it down. The team brings in a cake and sing to Carrie. It’s her
birthday — the cake declares her ”The Drone Queen.”
They call for a speech and she says she doesn’t know what to say and blows out the candles.
They applaud. She heads to her housing unit — it’s very drab and government looking. She clicks
on her lamp and gets out a wine glass. She pulls out a bottle of wine and pours a big glass. She
pops a couple of pills and drinks her wine. She pours some more and goes to her laptop. She
opens it up and calls her sister on Skype.
Maggie answers and she asks what happened. She says she just missed them — she says her
Dad went to the park. Carrie says it’s okay — she just took an Ambien and is going to crash.
She asks what she did for her birthday and she says she interrogated a couple of prisoners and
ran an operation. She tells her she should be in Istanbul out of harm’s way with Franny. Carrie
says that was the plan and asks about her daughter. Maggie says she’s a week older than the
last time they talked.
Carrie brushes her teeth and gets ready for bed. We see a picture of her holding her daughter
beside her bed. Carrie pops in ear plugs and lies down with her sleep mask on and turns out her
lamp. At the site of the operation, there are screams and people struggle to did out bodies. They
find someone and uncover the body. A young man is pulled out. At the Pentagon, Saul is getting
grilled by Gage on contractor costs.
Loch says he knows they’ll need more of his type soon — he runs a private organization. He
tells them Saul will brief them. He starts to give the sales pitch but stops and says if they had
known back in the day they would be in Afghanistan so long, they would have made different
choices. He says they only look 12 months in the future and he says they’ve waged a one year
war fourteen times in a row.
His private boss asks to speak to him outside. They step out of the room and he asks what
he’s doing. Saul says he has an obligation and Aaron says they’re tying to win a contract. He
says the troop draw down will happen no matter what and they stand to make money of it. Saul
says he saw this before and says they will create a safe haven for Al Qaeda if they leave it like
this. Aaron tells him that’s not his job anymore.
Carrie asks her tech about the operation from last night and he says Mary has the reports.
There is a news report saying that Haissam was killed and that the attack happened at a wedding.
Revenge is promised and says they turned a wedding into a funeral pyre and their strike back
will be unprecedented. Carrie clicks it off and says they have to go see the site.
Quinn is in a meeting at the Embassy and there are protestors galore outside. The Ambassador asks where Sandy is and asks why Quinn can’t be her station chief. She says the protestors
are furious about the attack. Sandy says it wasn’t a drone strike and the wedding claim is bullshit. She says she can’t share that with the foreign ministry. She asks who in the Pakistani
military signed up on the use of their air space. He says that Haissam put those people’s lives at
risk not them and anyone near him knew who he was and that he was a marked man.
The sole survivor from the attack is nursed by a woman. He asks what happened. The woman
says there was noise and then an explosion. He asks if it was a drone and she says it didn’t
sound like one. He asks where his mother and sister are and she tells Aayan she’s sorry. He
looks over and sees a man on the next bed. He says no, it’s not possible then gets up and runs
outside. He looks at the devastation where the bomb hit.
He is pointed to some bodies that have been retrieved and then comes over to the pile of
rubble. He then sees there are rows of bodies. He walks down the line of the dead and looks. He
stops at a pair of shoes he recognizes and goes to uncover the face of the woman. He is horrified.
He slumps down. Carrie is observing footage of the scene and asks them to get in closer. They
see the guy sitting there and she asks who he is. They tell her he’s probably a village kid.
He sees the drone and stands to face it and Carrie says he’s spotted them. He walks away and
she says to stay there and try to ID the casualties. She is shocked by the number of bodies and
says there were a lot more people than she thought. She gets a call from Quinn and says it’s a
cluster f-k. He says they have protestors at the Embassy and she says they always lie and says
it’s something and he says this one feels different because of the way they went in and that they
didn’t have eyes before they moved.
She says worst case, it was a wedding. She says it’s in a volatile area so no one will go in to
verify anything and say they’re bullet proof. He doesn’t like that choice of words. Saul comes in
and apologies to Mira for missing the dinner with her boss. He says he’ll call him and explain
102
Homeland Episode Guide
everything. She tells him she wants to buy an apartment and he wants to keep renting. He says
it’s not working out with Aaron and she asks if he’s going to get fired. He says he screwed up
today and she says to apologize and unscrew it. She tells him they agreed it was her turn.
Aayan sits on a bus watching video from the wedding on his cracked iPhone. We see his family
smiling at him and dancing around. He tears up as he watches his other reach for his phone and
shoot some video of him smiling at her. He’s clearly devastated.
At a medical college in Pakistan, Aayan walks through the campus and to the dormitories. He
comes in and his roommate Rahim says he thought he was dead. He asks why he didn’t return
his texts and he says he doesn’t know anything anymore. Rahim asks if he’s all right and Aayan
says he feels like a ghost. He sits and tells his roommate that he lost them all. He says his whole
family is gone.
Carrie drinks beer at a bar. A guy comes over and asks if he can talk to her. She thinks he’s
hitting on her and says don’t waste your time. She asks who he is — Lt Edgars — he says he
knows she’s station chief and she asks what he wants. He flew the mission the other night. She
offers to buy him a beer — he says no and asks if it really was a wedding party. She says she
doesn’t know and if she did, couldn’t tell him.
He says he feels sick to his stomach and asks if she ever feels that way. He tells her he killed
four Canadian soldiers based on bad intel. He tells her they are all f-ing monsters and she tells
him to get the f- out of her face. He says yes ma’am and goes. Rahim tells Kiran and Aayan that
these people are evil. Rahim says the American Ambassador says there was no wedding. They
want to upload the wedding video he has on his phone. Aayan says he doesn’t like politics and
Rahim calls him a coward and leaves.
Carrie gets a call from Director Lockhart. He asks if she’s up and has been online this morning. He says the operation has gone viral. He says the video has 300,000 hits and has only been
up a couple of hours. The footage shows the wedding and kids dancing when the missiles hit.
She asks about Sandy and he says she has to work with him to come up with a story. He says
the President and the nation of Pakistan want to hear something ASAP. He tells her she needs to
get down to Islamabad now.
Saul watches the wedding video online while Mira watches him from the door. She gives up
and goes to bed. The video ends with the bright light of the missile and then goes to snow. Saul
grabs his phone and calls Carrie. She looks at his name then declines the call. She walks out to
do as she was ordered. Aayan confronts Rahim and he says to take it down. He says it’s too late
— it’s already been seen a half a million times.
He says he can’t take it down since his cousin put it up and says he masked the IP address.
Aayan curses him and tells him to call his cousin and tell him to take it down. He agrees to call.
Aayan is scared he’ll be identified from the video. Sandy talks to Quinn and he says they’re going
to have demonstrations and will have a name of who put out the video by the end of the idea. He
says the Ambassador wants to see him and then says he’s picking Carrie up at 12:30.
Sandy gets a text from his source then deletes it. He has a meeting in 90 minutes but lies
to Quinn about where he’s going. Quinn goes to a building and heads through a corridor of
flickering lights. The place looks abandoned. He goes out a window and into another building
then out through a small store. He heads onto the street and continues walking.
Carries touches down in Islamabad and Quinn is there to pick her up. They share a hug and
he tells her welcome to Pakistan. She asks to sit for a few minutes so he can give her the lay of
the land. She asks what he thinks happened and he says Sandy is behaving oddly. She asks who
the asset is and he thought she knew. He says he knows what it’s like — checking names off a
kill list for a living. He asks how she feels when things go wrong — she says it doesn’t happen
that often. She says Haissam’s family knew who he was.
Quinn accuses her of taking Kabul because she couldn’t bring dependents. She asks why he
didn’t come with her and he says they have to go to the Embassy. They see a news story with
Sandy on it. They curse and head out. Sandy is walking down the street as his face is all over
the news — looks like associated with the bombing of the wedding. People begin to look at him
and he begins to notice. He ducks into a building entryway and then up a flight of stairs.
He pulls out keys and unlocks a door. He notices the lock is not there and rattles the door.
He sends a text asking about the locks. Someone opens a door across the hall. He smiles and
waves at the woman who shuts her door again. He sends another text. No reply to either. Then
103
Homeland Episode Guide
his phone rings and Quinn asks where he is. He lies and says he’s at his residence and Quinn
tells him he’s blown and has to come in now. He asks where he is and says he’s all over the news.
Sandy tells him where he is and Quinn says he can be there in five. He tells him to keep his
phone on. Quinn calls for back up. Sandy head downstairs and looks at the street and notices
some people have gathered. He checks his phone and turns his back as some people come down
the stairs. He sees them pointing and runs back up the stairs. He heads down the back stairs
and ducks down an alley. He walks away from the building and then jogs down a street.
He heads down a larger street and tries to keep his head down but he’s quite distinctive
looking. He sees some men heading toward him with stick and then he turns and they are on all
sides. He holds up his hands and then pulls a gun. Quinn drives through the crowd, he hops in
and they peel away. A bus blocks them and they are quickly surrounded. Sandy calls for back
up as they break the window and try to drag Sandy out. Quinn shoots one guy and then another.
HE can’t stop it as they drag Sandy out of the car.
They can see the crowd as him. Carrie tries to go after him but Quinn won’t let her He says
it’s too late for him. He fires some more shots and that clears people out and he drives back the
way they came and gets them to safety. We see that Sandy was being stomped and beaten by the
mob. They make it safely to the Embassy. Carrie tells him to come on but Quinn says he needs
a minute. She paces and he asks what she means by what story they tell the Ambassador.
She says they could have done more for Sandy and Quinn tells her f- you and asks what’s
wrong with her. She asks him the same and says he has give minutes then he’d better be inside.
Carrie comes in and says she’s there for the Ambassador. The desk clerk tells her she’s bloody
and she asks for the bathroom then goes to clean up. She wipes the blood off and gives herself a
long look in the mirror. She applies some lipstick and straightens her hair. She heads out to face
the music.

An official inquiry brings Carrie back to the U.S., where she struggles
with her ambivalence towards motherhood. Meanwhile, Quinn spirals
out of control; and a disgraced former case officer reveals disturbing
new information.
We open ”TWO DAYS LATER”. We see a
flag draped coffin unloaded at an air base
in Maryland. Quinn and Carrie are there
to greet Sandy’s wife who tells them he
told her it would be safe there. Lockhart
is there as well. He says this is f-d up
and that they had three kids that saw
the videos of their dad being stomped to
death on YouTube. Quinn says he’s going to go get a drink. Lockhard asks Carrie if he’s okay and she says he was right
there when it happened. He reminds her
she was too and says to be at his office in
the morning.
Carrie drives to Maggie’s and goes to
the porch. She hears her daughter crying
and starts to go back to her car. Maggie
comes to the door and Carrie apologizes for being late. She asks Carrie if she wants to hold her
daughter and she takes her. She says she has so much hair now but looks at the baby like she’s
a stranger. Quinn sits in a chaise lounge by the pool drinking and tosses the empty in the water.
A woman comes up and says it’s her pool he’s polluting.
She tells him she’s the manager and reminds him they met when he paid her six months in
advance. She says no glass bottles by the pool. He tries to stand but can’t. She takes him to her
apartment and rides him. She’s a big girl but Quinn sees to be holding his own as she straddles
him. Aayan tells Rahim he’s going to be blamed for the riots and the CIA chief’s death. He says
it’s not true and Aayan says people are staring at him.
Rahim tells him to calm down and Aayan says he has no one is safe there. There’s a news
crew there with a camera in Aayan’s face. They ask if he feels like it was justice when Sandy
105
Homeland Episode Guide
was stomped to death. He tells her the Americans are murderers but that doesn’t justify what
was done to that man. He walks away and goes to his dorm room. He looks down and sees that
Rahim is still in front of the camera talking. He grabs a bag and starts to pack it. He has a bunch
of medicine vials in his cabinet and packs them all.
The girl wakes the next morning and tells Quinn he doesn’t need to do anything. He asks
her to breakfast and she’s pleased. Carrie wakes to a crying baby and says she can’t take her.
She says she has to go but Maggie puts her daughter into her arms and hands her the bottle to
feed her. She says she’s back only for a couple of days. Maggie asks what she plans to do about
Franny and she hands her back to her sister. She tells Carrie that their Dad isn’t pitching in like
he said and the nanny isn’t there often enough. Maggie says they have to talk and makes her
commit to tonight.
Carrie leaves as the nanny comes in. Lockhart watches the video of Aayan and asks if she saw
it. He was Haissam’s nephew and the reporter found him at college. He says the kid is reasonable.
She says they need a new chief in Islamabad and she can do it. He tells her she dropped a bomb
on a damned wedding and now he’s under attack by State. He says they have a hearing and he
needs her there to help him fight the committee shutting down what they’re doing.
She agrees to stay and help but asks then what. She asks how long she’s back for and he
says she’s being recalled permanently. He says she can spend time with her kid. She sighs and
walks out. Quinn didn’t even show up for the meeting. He’s at breakfast with the manager. She
asks why he doesn’t talk much and he says he’d rather listen to her. She calls him charming.
She says he was moaning in his sleep and he apologizes.
She asks if he’s okay and he says he is but she asks if he really is. He kind of laughs and
says it’s been a rough week. A very rough week. She asks if he wants to tell her about it and she
says she does but can’t. A couple of guys in the cafe are laughing at her. She tells him she’s a
good listener. She walks off to the bathroom and the guys make a couple of more cracks about
her eight. Quinn goes to confront them and she tells him to forget it and come on.
The guy repeats his joke — it’s a bad, old fat joke. They call Quinn a douche and he slams the
one guy face down into the table and breaks the other guy’s arm. He starts to beat them some
more but she stops him. He regains his composure somewhat. Carrie watches the nanny change
Franny’s diaper then goes to get her phone. She says she’s on her way and heads out.
She finds Quinn in jail and tells him they’re letting him go. She says there’s a fine and she
says she had to play the PTSD card. She asks what happened and he says he was just stupid.
She asks if he’s okay and he says he thought he was until he found himself beating the hell out
of some idiot. She tells him Lockhart didn’t really notice that he wasn’t there and she says she’s
being permanently recalled. She says the one person who could explain what happened is being
buried tomorrow.
She asks about a case operator that left about the time he got there — he says it was Jordan
Harris and he was sent back to file. She wants to talk to the guy and asks him to go. He says
no and she asks if he has more brawling to do. He says maybe. Aayan is on the bus away from
school. He checks on the vials of stuff in his bag and then zips it back up. The bus stops and he
gets off. He looks around and then walks away.
He heads to a house and knocks on the door. A woman answers and says she heard what
happened to his family. Her husband, Omar, also comes to the door and asks if the bombing
was an attempt to kill his uncle Haissam. His daughter, Kiran, comes to the door to try to stop
him. Omar says they have a right to know and he says it was. Kiran lets him in but Omar looks
concerned. He tells her that Rahim ruined his life by putting that video online. He says people
just watch him now. He asks her to put his bag somewhere safe. She asks what’s in it and he
says it’s personal things he wants kept safe.
Kiran asks when she’ll see him again and he says tomorrow at school. She says she means
really see him and he says he doesn’t know that everything is complicated now. Her dad calls her
and he lays down the bag and thanks her formally for talking with him. He leaves out the back.
Carrie finds Jordan Harris in the file room. She asks for a couple of minutes of his time. He says
he doesn’t want to talk about Islamabad.
She tells him Sandy was killed in the streets and she wants to know how it happened. He
asks why she’s asking him and she says she’s been asking around about Sandy and knows that
he kept everyone in the dark about what he was doing. He says he was a case officer and now he
fills freedom of information requests. Harris says he doesn’t want to talk to her and walks away.
106
Homeland Episode Guide
She heads home and finds her sister bouncing Franny.
Maggie asks where she’s been and says the nanny had to leave at 5:30. She says they were
counting on her and she wasn’t there. Maggie says she had to cancel two patients. She says she
has a career and family of her own that count on her. She tells Carrie this is not what they agreed
— she says you have to be responsible when you bring a life into this world. The baby coos and
Carrie tells her she’s there permanently. She says they can skip the big talk.
She tells Maggie she can have her all day tomorrow. She says she needs sleep and walks off
and leaves her daughter with her sister as she goes off to bed. Next morning, Maggie and her
kids grab their lunches and head out. She asks Carrie if she’ll be okay and she says she’ll be fine
but she looks scared. She looks at her daughter whose face is dirty and needs a diaper change.
She feeds her some more food and then takes her out of the high chair.
She changes her diaper and redresses the little girl. She puts her in the car seat and Carrie
heads out with her. She puts the car seat up front (illegal!) and heads out. She takes her for
a drive — looks like she’s at Brody’s. She pulls up and stops and looks at the house. She tells
Franny that’s where her dad lived when she first met him. Franny starts to fuss and Carrie
unbuckles her and takes her out to hold her.
She tells her that’s where they all lived and says she was arrested on that lawn. She sighs
and says he would have been a terrible father. She tells Franny she knows she’s a terrible mom
but says he would have been worse. She says he was happy to hear that she was on the way and
says it was the last thing he was happy about. Carrie cries and says she tried to hold on to that
and feel it too — happy that she was there. The baby coos — she says with him gone, she can’t
remember why she had her.
She says she loved him so much and can still see him when she closes her eyes. Back at
the house, Carrie gives her daughter a bath — she has a head full of beautiful red hair like her
Daddy. She loses control of the slippery baby and she almost goes under but she grabs her.
Carrie looks at her splashing in the water and lowers her down until the baby is under the water.
She’s drowning her child. Then she stops and yanks her daughter out. The child cries and Carrie
tries to catch her breath and calm down.
Saul meets with Dar and he asks if Carrie has called him. Saul say she hasn’t called since she
went oversees. Dar says Lockhart is recalling her and Saul asks if he knows why he’s doing it. Dar
says the guy is transparent and only worries about himself. Dar says there are whispers about
Lockhart’s abilities long before this latest disaster. Dar says he’s vulnerable and there’s blood in
the water. He says his entire program is under review. He tells Saul if he wants a comeback, the
Secretary of State could help.
Dar asks what he thinks. Saul says officially, he’s very happy in the private sector. Carrie
waits for Harris in the parking lot. He tells her to stay away. He tells her she’s crazy just like they
say and asks if she brought her kid along. He tells her that’s very professional. She hops in his
car and asks why he was recalled. She says she knows he was a great at his job and that he was
silenced and thrown in the basement. He asks why she’s doing this. She says she’s going back
and he says he heard she was going back. She says she can’t stay here.
She says if he tells her everything, she’ll do everything she can to get him back in the field.
She says the guy that fired her nearly got her killed. He says it wasn’t Sandyt that side lined him,
but Lockhart. He says he flew back to report a leak and she asks him to tell her about it. Maggie
comes home and finds Carrie sitting with Franny. She asks about her day and what Carrie did.
She says nothing much really.
Maggie says she knows mothering isn’t full time excitement but it’s important. She asks if
Franny is fed, changed and bathed and Carrie says it’s all done. Saul catches Carrie outside
Sandy’s funeral. He says his company told him to come and says he didn’t really know Sandy.
She says she’s glad he’s there and says they may have something to talk about. She asks him to
save her a seat.
Lockhart is with General Scott and greet Carrie who asks to speak to her boss alone. She
says Sandy wasn’t really a team player and he says the whole agency is full of people like that.
She says Sandy had a dark asset who provided great information until the wedding. She says
it got him and Sandy both a lot of praise and that’s why he didn’t want to know about Sandy
trading top secret information for a few good drone strikes. She says he’s complicit and says he
was committing treason. She says the laws apply even to the head of the CIA.
He says it was a judgment call and she says he got a station chief killed and a wedding party
107
Homeland Episode Guide
murdered. She says the Senate hearings won’t go his way. He asks what she wants and she says
Islamabad. He tells her it’s not even a real country — it’s a f-ing acronym. He tells her it’s a shit
hole and he doesn’t know why she wants to go back there. He stomps off.
She sits by Saul and he asks what that was about. She says he changed his mind about
bringing her back here and says she’s going to be station chief in Islamabad. He says her boss
doesn’t seem to happy then smirks and says people aren’t happy at funerals. She asks him about
his private security firm and says she wants him to send some people over there to help mop up
the mess. He asks if this is what she really wants and she says yes. He says he’ll do anything
she needs.
After the funeral, Carrie sits in the vestibule and Quinn walks up. He says it could have been
them and she says it wasn’t and he says he’s glad too. She tells him his tip on Harris panned
out in a big way. She tells him that Sandy was trading secrets to get the locations for the strikes.
She says they have to find out why the guy turned on them and the extent of the damage. She
says Lockhart gave her Islamabad but he says he’s not going back. She says she needs him and
he says he can’t do it.
She tells him she was upset at what happened to Sandy as well. Quinn says it’s not about
her. He walks out. She tells Maggie who is furious. Carrie says it changed. Maggie says she’s her
mother and doesn’t know what she’s thinking. Carrie says she knows it’s not fair to her sister
but says Franny is better off with her. Maggie says now anyone with a bottle can make her happy
but later she will need her mother. Carrie says she doesn’t have a choice — they’re sending her
back.
Maggie says she doesn’t believe her and says she manipulated this so she will have no place
for her daughter in her life. Carrie says it’s not true but Maggie says they both know it is. She
asks when she’s leaving and Carrie says now. Maggie says there is not a diagnosis for what is
wrong with Carrie and tells her she needs to at least have the courage to say goodbye to her
daughter before she leaves. Carrie goes to Franny’s room and looks at her daughter in her crib.
Franny smiles and giggles at Carrie. She tells her she’s so sorry then walks out the door,
closing it behind her. Quinn walks by the pool bottle in hand and goes to his apartment. He
throws his cushions back on the couch and sits down and pours himself a drink in a dirty glass.
He sees a note from his new lady friend — it says ”no one ever fought for me before” with a red
kiss mark. He looks troubled.
Aayan hears a noise and wakes up. His door bursts open and several men are there. They tell
him to keep his mouth shut. He says he hasn’t said anything. He says he has nothing else. They
tell him no more interviews, videos or anything. They throw him down and leave. He sputters in
pain from where they held his throat. Rahim comes in and Aayan glares at him.
Carrie is on a military plane back to Islamabad. A man asks if she needs anything and she
says she’s fine. She repeats it again to herself after he leaves.

4WAH03
Carrie ventures a delicate alliance with her counterpart at Pakistan’s
secretive Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI). Fara fails to recruit a key asset, forcing Carrie to intervene. Still reeling over events in Islamabad,
Quinn zeroes in on a potential lead.
In Islamabad, Pakistan, Carrie tells her
driver she needs to make a stop on the
way to the embassy. She tells them it’s
not a request when they try to refuse. She
asks them to pull over and she asks them
why Sandy was right there without protection and asks wasn’t it his job. They
tell her that he wasn’t easy to work for
and never let them drive him. She puts
on her head scarf and asks them to unlock the door. She says she won’t go farther than the corner and gets out to look
around.
She thinks back to when she, Quinn
and Sandy were attacked and Sandy
dragged out to his death. She looks
around and is startled when a car honks
at her to get out of the street. She gets back in her car and says — let’s go. At CIA HQ in Langley,
Quinn waits on the therapist to come in. She says last year she remembers he was looking to
leave the agency. He says last year was about shooting the kid and he says now he just wants
out.
She says they have to make sure he’s not a danger to himself or others and reminds him of
the diner brawl and the damage he did. He says he controlled himself for 12 years and only lost
it once. He says it won’t happen again. She asks about his nightmares about his first kill. He
says he just snapped. The says they have to talk about what happened in Islamabad. She asks
about the two men he killed that tried to took Sandy. He says he thinks only about Carrie and
Sandy.
She reminds him that Carrie was one of the reasons he wanted out of Dar’s group. She says
the agency worries that one day he’ll talk. He says he knows he can’t. She asks about Carrie and
109
Homeland Episode Guide
why he chose her over Sandy. She asks if they’re romantically involved. He says he doesn’t see
what that has to do with anything. He looks around and says — f- this. Dar watches this all on
a monitor. Quinn walks out.
Carrie arrives at the embassy and heads inside. Her guards and driver follow. She sees the car
they were in when Sandy was taken, parked in a quarantined area. She goes in and goes through
security. The guard checks her bag and hands it back. He thanks her. She badges herself into
her offices and looks around. She hears men talking and asks where everyone is. They ask what
she means and she says they have a full staff meeting for 9:30.
They tell her it should be easy to get them together since they are on lock down. She asks
where Redmond is and they tell her he’s in with the Ambassador Boyd. Redmond says he canceled her staff meeting she requested since there wasn’t much to catch up on and she says to
do it her way and get them together. Boyd tells her that Redmond is feeling blindsided and says
they were all surprised she got Sandy’s job.
Boyd says US-Pakistan relations are at their lowest point and Carrie asks how the lock down
is helping. Carrie says she needs to be able to put her guys back on the street. Boyd says it won’t
be that easy. Carrie asks her staff to tell her about Jordan Harris. No one says anything. She
reminds them they worked with him for 18 months and asks if they share his suspicions about
Sandy sharing intelligence with the other side.
Redmond says Sandy’s intel was consistently good and she says maybe it was too good. She
asks how he could get precise coordinates on high value targets. She says no one wants to admit
he could have been spying under their noses. Redmond stands and says — young lady, let’s have
a chat. She tells him to sit down. He goes to pour coffee. She says she wanted to believe Sandy
and based on what Jordan told her, they have to retrace Sandy’s steps and find out if he was
trading secrets.
Hensleigh tells her this won’t be easy with the lock down and she says she hopes to have it
lifted by tomorrow. She tells John now they can have a chat and takes him into her office. She
tells him his directive is to be useful to her. He says that’s no license to come in and take a dump
on his station. She says it’s her station and she can boot him with a word. He says he was told
by Lockhart that he was the one to run it and then she got the appointment.
She asks if he really wants to know how she got it and tells him she asked nicely. She tells
John to clean himself up and says she can smell the booze on him from here. He leaves. Quinn
ignores a call and his landlady gal pal asks who he’s avoiding as they booze by the pool. He says
it’s a guy from work. She asks if it’s his boss and he says ex-boss who still thinks he’s the boss.
He says he’s quitting his job and she asks if something happened.
Quinn says a lot of things happened and she says he seems worried. He says his job doesn’t
like quitters. She says he’ll need them for a reference but he says he’ll be happy if they don’t
kill him. She asks what will he do next and he says — something different. She asks if he has
marketable skills and he says he doesn’t know. She asks if he has a degree and he says no to
that too. She says she’s shocked and that he seems sophisticated. The phone rings again and
she asks if he’s going to get it. He throws his phone in the pool.
Carrie heads to her apartment in the Embassy and looks around. There’s little in the fridge.
Wonder if it was Sandy’s place. She gets a text that says simply ”landed.” She tucks a gun into
her slacks and says she has to run to a hotel. The driver and security guys tell her they’re on
lock down but she says limited pouch runs to cleared hotels are okay so they relent and take
her. A motorcycle pulls out behind them. They tell her it’s ISI that wait outside all the time for a
car to leave.
She says to dump her at the Sadirah and drive on. She says she won’t be more than 10
minutes away and says she’ll be an hour. She heads inside and they watch the ISI tail as she
goes in. She walks out another door and hops into a cab. Someone sees her and radios it in. The
guy hops on a motorcycle to follow Carrie. They get away from him at a crowded crosswalk and
then Carrie holds out money to draw a crowd of beggar children. The motorcycle tail tries to see
what’s going on.
She uses this diversion to slip into an alley and he drives on by still after the cab. Carrie
walks through a market and then crosses a street. She goes into a building and up some stairs.
She knocks on a door and is let in by Fara. She greets Carrie who asks how their flight was. She
says she can tell she’s been working on her accent. Max is there and she asks about Parvez and
Cadir. Max says they’re working on the van. She asks about the kid and he says Aayan is back
110
Homeland Episode Guide
in class trying to act normal.
Fara says they are going to approach him in his adviser’s office at school. She says it’s perfect and says she’s nervous like she always is at the start of an operation. Fara is posing as a
journalist. Carrie advises her to make light physical contact with him and says all she has to do
is get him to agree to another meeting. Fara leaves and Carrie asks Max if Fara will be good. She
says to watch out for ISI since they have no official cover.
Quinn finds Dar pounding on his door and lets him in but refuses Dar’s guard. He reminds
Dar that he told him to f- off. Dar says he’s concerned about him. Dar looks at the empty bottles
and cans and Quinn says he doesn’t belong to them anymore. Dar then reminds him that he
invested a lot of time and money in Quinn. Dar says once a scalp hunter, always a scalp hunter.
Dar says the morons in the diner didn’t deserve what he did to them.
Dar says Quinn needs to convince him he can keep his shit together or he’ll have to go through
retraining. Dar says the issue is his feelings for Carrie and says if she wasn’t in the car, Sandy
would be alive. He says he let Sandy get beaten to death to save Carrie. Quinn chokes Dar then
lets him go abruptly. Dar struggles for breath and then tells him well done. He says he knows he
wasn’t that far gone but Quinn tells him to get the f- out. Dar tells him to have a nice life.
Eden asks if he’s all right as she stands wrapped in a sheet. She asks who that was and Quinn
says no one. Carrie is jogging and listening to jazz — doing laps on Embassy property. She sees
some guys bringing in bags and glances at them as she walks in. She finds Saul laughing with
Boyd. She greets him and asks what’s going on. He asks if she saw her new security team. She
says she didn’t expect him to hand deliver them and Boyd leaves them to talk.
Saul tells Carrie she’s lucky and says Boyd is one of the good ones. She asks why he’s there
and he says he’s only there for a few days, a week tops. She says it looks like she called him
for help and he offers help but she says she doesn’t need it, then relents and says yes. She
says he can do one thing and then go home. She asks him to have the lock down lifted with the
Ambassador so she can put her case officers to work. He says done.
Fara waits on Aayan and her team sits in a van listening. His advisor introduces her as a
journalist from London and leaves them to talk. She thanks him for meeting her and he says his
advisor insisted they meet. He’s ready to walk out and he says even if she is who she says she is
he can’t talk to her. She asks if he’s in trouble and asks him to stay She touches him and says
they don’t have to do this now. She says they can meet later but he begs her to leave him alone.
He walks out. She’s disappointed in herself.
Quinn drinks and watches the YouTube video of Sandy’s death. He recalls him yelling to
Carrie about the gun being under the seat and her saying it wasn’t there. He sees Carrie trying
to get out to go after Sandy and him holding her back. He starts freaking out and panting. Fara
tells Carrie that Aayan was terrified. Carrie says he’s more valuable and his fear means that
there is something. Max asks if they can pull a snatch and grab but she says since he’s the only
survivor of a botched kill mission, it’s not likely. She tells them she’ll think on it.
Carrie is on the roof when Ambassador Boyd finds her. She asks why she wasn’t at dinner
and she says she got busy. She says she knows she violated the lock down order and Carrie asks
who told her. She asks if it was Redmond and she says no. Carrie asks for a fresh start and Boyd
says Saul recommended that. Carrie says Saul likes her and doesn’t like a lot of people. Boyd
says they almost got married in Beirut a long time ago.
Carrie says Saul never said a word and Boyd says he’s discreet. She tells Carrie she’s lifting
the lock down but not for Saul, so she can improve their relations. She makes Carrie promises
to deliver daily updates in person and she agrees. They have a smoke together to seal the deal.
Quinn wakes to the sound of cans and bottles. He finds Eden cleaning up his place.
He comes out and asks what she’s doing. She asks if he’s okay and asks again what he’s
doing. He asks her to stop talking. She grabs the trash bag and tosses it down then asks if she
did something wrong. He tells her she should leave now and she says okay. She says she needs
to get her stuff and goes to the bedroom. Quinn sighs and she says she has one thing to say
before she goes.
Eden says she knows this has to do with the CIA guy on the news. He says she doesn’t know
what she saw and he says she should be scared because these people don’t f- around. She says
nobody should have to go through what he went through and says if that guy shows up again,
she’d say it to his face. He says he’d really like to see that. She says she left roast chicken in the
111
Homeland Episode Guide
fridge and eggs and cereal to go along with his liquid diet. She says whoever Carrie is — she’s a
lucky girl. She leaves.
Carrie is dropped off by her drivers to have breakfast with Saul. He says he heard the lock
down was lifted and asks what else he can do for her. She tells him to go home. She asks about
Boyd being his fiancee and he reminds her they haven’t talked much lately. She says she’s sorry
and wanted to pick up the phone but says she can’t talk about what she needs to talk about.
They discuss the tyranny of secrets. He asks what she’s doing today. She says she can’t tell him.
Saul says he can guess. He says she needs to get Sandy’s networks up but she doesn’t know
who to trust so she needs to set up a second station independent of the Embassy. He says he
knows she’s done that already and says that was quick. She asks when his plane leaves and he
says tomorrow morning. She thanks him and he wishes her happy hunting. She leaves.
Aayan sits at a cafe studying. A woman comes out calling for a doctor and says a woman is
in pain asking for help. Aayan follows them upstairs to the women’s room. He knocks on the
door dpushesd pushes his way in. He says he’s a doctor. It’s Carrie. She tells him he’s in trouble
and says she’s Fara’s London bureau chief. He tells her to let him go. She shushes him and they
listen at the door. She says she thought she heard someone.
She tells him he’s part of an important story and says she wants to tell the story of all his
family he lost. She asks who he’s scared of and says she can help him, even get him out of
Pakistan if he wants. He asks in exchange for what and she says just his story. She says he can
continue his studies in the UK or US. She says she’s putting her card in his pocket.
She touches him as she slides it into his pants. She says he doesn’t have to ever see him
again if he doesn’t want to. She tells him he should want to though, especially if he’s in trouble.
She tells him to tell the others she had female problems and was cramping. She says she’s sorry
for what he’s been through and wishes him luck. He leaves.
Quinn watches the YouTube video again. He pauses it and puts it in slow motion a few times
and sees something that catches his eye. He sees a bearded guy looking down at the ground. He
watches several different versions of the video and sees one from right behind the guy. It looks
like the guy had an ear piece. Quinn says f- me.
Carrie pours a glass of wine and takes her pulls. Her microwave beeps and she pulls our her
food. She sits at the table when her phone rings. She sees it’s Quinn and asks him to not says
she pocket dialed him. He tells her they never had a chance. He says it was per-meditated and
saw a guy in the crowd with an earpiece orchestrating it. He sent her the video link and tells her
to watch it. He points out the guy that’s wearing a comm.
She curses and he says they never had a chance. His face turns to the camera but neither
recognizes him. They wonder if he’s Pakistani intelligence and she says why would they do it.
She says Sandy’s cover was blown so he’d have to leave anyway, so why kill him? She says this
changes everything. She says she needs him but he says he can’t. She says there is no one there
she can count on. She says not to make her beg, but he says no, so she does beg
He says she’s the hardest person in the world to say no to and she asks if that’s a yes. She
tells him she f-ing loves him and he says yeah, he knows. Quinn sits staring after they ring off.
Carrie smiles and goes back to her boxed dinner. Quinn doesn’t look happy about going back.

Carrie gets a tip; Saul calls in a favor; Fara uncovers a conspiracy.
Carrie sits in her office looking at research on insurgents. Redmond comes
in and startles her. He asks what she’s
looking at. She says she’s trying to get
familiar with the local ISI agents. He
tells her she won’t find Farhad Ghazi in
that database because he’s an outsource
guy the ISI uses. He leaves her to look
through the file he pulled up for her. She
prints his photo.
Aayan is back on the bus looking
tense. He gets off at Kiran’s house and
knocks on the door. Her dad isn’t there
so she lets him in. He asks if she has the
bag he left and she says Baba found it.
Aayan says he need the bag but she says
he smashed everything and wouldn’t stop
even though he begged. She asks who the medicine was for and then her father comes in and
calls him a drug dealer.
Her dad says he reported him to the medical school for stealing drugs and says he’ll be
expelled. He throws Aayan out of their house while he yells that they’re wrong and they’ll see.
He leaves. Carrie is watched as she gets out of her car at Saul’s hotel. He’s checking out but she
asks if they can talk. She asks if he still has local contacts and asks if he’s talked to them lately.
She tells him Sandy’s death was pre-meditated by the ISI. She shows him the pic from the video
then tells him it’s Ghazi who does wetwork for ISI. She says only she and Quinn know but he
says the White House needs to know.
Carrie says some diplomats will be kicked out and that’s the end of it. She says something
larger is going on and he tells her Quinn called him last week concerned about her. She says
Quinn is the one who’s wigging out. She asks if Saul is going to help or not. Quinn shows up to
the office and Fara greets him but says Carrie isn’t in yet. She offers him coffee and he accepts.
He finds a free office and asks her to catch him up.
She tells him Carrie is with Saul talking about the operation. She says Carrie is good and
he’s impressed how fast Carrie got the station up and running. Max comes in and tells Fara that
Aayan is there. She heads in to talk to him. He says he’ll only talk to Carrie and Fara says she’ll
113

be there in about 10 minutes. He starts to leave and she offers to let him wait in private in her
office and gets him to stay.
She sits him down and offers him a glass of water. He’s nervous but he stays. Redmond’s guy
reports back on Carrie’s movements. He wonders if anyone on her detail will play ball with the.
He asks the guy to find out where the frame grab Carrie had of Ghazi came from. Carrie shows
up and nods to Quinn but heads straight in to talk to Aayan.
He asks about getting him out of Pakistan. She says they get sources out of tricky situations
all the time. He says he needs 80,000 rupees (about $600) and she says she needs to know what
it’s for. He says he can’t tell her. She shows him Ghazi’s photo and asks if this is who threatened
him. She says if it is, he’s in more trouble than he can imagine. The kid starts crying and she
comforts him. Quinn watches.
She asks Aayan what’s going on and kneels beside him and asks if he’s been blackmailed.
She asks why he needs the money and he says he can’t tell her. She asks if the money will fix
whatever it is and he says it might and she agrees. She asks Fara for the money. Carrie asks to
send someone with him but he says he has to do it alone. Fara hands over the money and Carrie
gives it to her. Aayan thanks her and she says to be safe and to come back to them as soon as
possible to get out of the country.
She sends Fara to track the kid. Max is already in the van. Quinn comes out and tells Carrie
that getting the kid asylum is a tough sell. She says Ghazi visited the kid last week and he’s
intrigued. They head out. The Ambassador’s husband is finishing a lecture when a woman comes
in and says she knows his friend Sandy. He asks who she is and she says she benefited from
their friendship and says his death doesn’t have to end that.
She tells him she knows he was the one providing classified documents from the Ambassador’s
desk to them. Hmm but does his wife know he was leaking the docs or is he stealing from her?
Saul shows up meet with a contact — Bunny. They greet each other warmly and Bunny says
tongues are wagging all over the club. Saul offers to go elsewhere but Bunny says f- all the guys
that are looking.
Carrie and her guys are watching Ghazi and they bugged his home phone and laptop. She
wants his cell bugged and they tell her they need to get within five feet of him. Quinn suggests
they try while he’s asleep if the guy stays in his apartment. Bunny and Saul chat over lunch
about how times have changed and Bunny says he knows 9/11 is an Israeli hoax. Saul says
that’s crazy. Bunny thinks Bush was lying about Iraq so why not 9/11.
Saul says he needs to talk to someone from ISI and Bunny says it’s not a good time for that.
He tells Saul to go home and spend time with his wife. Saul reminds him he owes him a favor
and Bunny says it’s late in the game to call in a chit. He says the Americans are being driven out
just like the Russians were. Bunny says the Taliban has won. Saul tells him he can do the favor
to be gracious.
Fara and Max follows Aayan’s taxi. It pulls over. They are at Ommaya, the teaching hospital,
and Max wonders why he’s there. The kid gets out and Fara says they need to hear and she says
she’ll keep out of sight. She pulls up her hood, gets out of the car and heads closer. Max checks
in on her ear bud and she says she can’t get any closer. He’s handing the money to a woman and
she says it looks like she told him to wait. They decide to wait too.
Quinn sneaks up on Ghazi’s place and picks the lock. He has a silenced gun with him. Carrie
and the others watch him on the cameras they’ve bugged the guy’s place with. He creeps closer
and triggers the app to access the phone. The guy has a gun by his bed where his phone is. The
blackberry switches on and they’ve got it cloned but then the guy’s phone rings. Quinn creeps
out and hides behind a wall but is stuck in the apartment.
They listen in on the call which was in Urdu. Ghazi gets off the call and looks out the window.
He walks back to his bedroom and Carrie tells Quinn to go now. Parvez tells Carrie the call was
local and it was a friend asking him to go clubbing. Boyd calls about changing jobs to get out of
Pakistan. He begs his friend Bill to get any job he can back in the states that he can sell to his
wife. He comes in and finds Martha, his ambassador wife, still in her office working.
She asks if something is wrong and he says GW offered him his old job back. He says Bill
Nicholas himself called to end his exile. He says they want him back as soon as possible and he
says within a week. She asks if he’s just going to leave and he says he can’t say no. She asks if
their marriage will survive another separation. He says he can’t risk his career and she says he
risked it plagiarizing a chapter of a book (guess that’s why he’s in academic exile).

He tells her it’s not good for Toby to be so far away from home. He says he has spent his whole
life following her around. He tells her he already took the job and she says fine and that figures.
She goes back to work and effectively dismisses him. He leaves. She looks unhappy.
Carrie asks Quinn about the psych eval and he reveals that he’s close to being done. She says
that makes her even more grateful that he’s there. She asks if that’s why he didn’t come with her
to Kabul. He says he didn’t want to live in a bunker and kill people by remote control. She says
that’s harsh. He says when he killed that kid, he was pretty much done. He says he remembers
that kid’s name — Carlos — but doesn’t remember most of the others he’s killed.
He tells her going mission to mission is like a drug. Carrie says he wasn’t a bad guy but he
insists he was and she asks why he’s doing this. He says she needs to hear it. She says she
needs help. Quinn tells Carrie he’ll stay at the surveillance shop and she leaves wishing him
good night. On the way back, Carrie stares out the window in thought.
Early in the morning, Max wakes Fara and tells her the nurse is coming out that Aayan gave
the money to. She wakes up and they snap photos of the woman. They spot Aayan who greets
the nurse. She slips him a bag. They wonder what it is and Fara says likely medicine. The kid
goes for a cab and they scramble to follow. Carrie tells Redmond to call off his guys and says ISI
is enough of a tail to shake. He tries to say it’s keeping her safe in the wake of what happened to
Sandy but she tells him to stop.
She says he has no trouble getting out and he tells her about a secret tunnel. She asks why
he didn’t tell her and he says she never asked. Saul is having breakfast at his hotel when all
the other diners get up and leave and some imposing people come in and close the doors. A guy
checks Saul and frisks him. Saul asks what the f- this is. They pry the SIM card out of his phone
as well. A man sits down at his table and he asks if Bunny sent him.
Saul says he wants to talk about Sandy’s murder. The man asks why’s speaking, Saul ex-CIA,
Saul private consultant or Carrie. Saul asks who wanted him murdered and then he tell him
who’s asking. He says he was recognized on the street and killed for drone strike retaliation.
Saul says he knows an ISI operative was on the ground orchestrating the whole thing. Saul says
the timing of the leak explains a lot. The man gets bristly and Saul says it wouldn’t be the first
time ISI targeted one of them.
The man gets up and says this meeting was only a courtesy for Bunny and he leaves. Carrie
shows up at the surveillance point and she says Saul called her to confirm he stirred the pot.
She asks to talk to Quinn in private. She says she knows he didn’t want to come back there and
thanks him again and says it means a lot. She says they would be nowhere on this without him
and he says they still might be. She asks if they’re good and he says they are.
There’s traffic involving a cabbage truck accident. Aayan peeks out of his cab and Fara says
he’s stuck too but is getting out. She says they’re going to lose him. She pulls up her veil and
Max tells her not to do anything stupid. She hops out and he slides over to drive. She hurries
after Aayan through the mess of cars. He’s in a tunnel under the street and then in a market.
She keeps her distance. He comes out and she’s cut off by a pedicab and loses him.
She keeps going, looking around. A bunch of young men run into a mosque and she finally
spots him — he’s handed off the bag of medicine to someone and then some trucks pull up.
Armed men get out and she hides her face. Carrie wakes Quinn as Gharzi gets a call and he
shouts for Qadir, the translator. The caller is a woman speaking Arabic. He ends the call.
Quinn says the caller says his laundry is ready for pickup. He crushes his phone and Carrie
says it’s an exit code. They didn’t trace the caller and they tell her the guy is running. She curses
and says they have to take him. Quinn asks if she’s kidding. She says he’s the only link between
Sandy’s murder and the ISI. Quinn says the guy is highly trained. She heads out and Quinn says
the guy could have back up.
Fara calls and Carrie doesn’t want to take it but she says it’s urgent. She tells Carrie that
Haqqani is alive and she just saw him with Aayan. She says they embraced and then the guy left
in an SUV. Carrie asks if she’s sure and Fara tells her she sent her a video. They tell her Gharzi
is leaving but she says they may have a game changer here. She watches the video and, sure
enough, it’s Haqqani. The Taliban said they killed him.
She asks if Fara can follow but she says she’s on foot. She tells her good job and to get back
to the office in case Aayan shows up. She asks what Quinn is thinking and he says that Sandy’s
death makes sense now. He was killed to protect Haqqani and Quinn says the guy wasn’t there
at all and that they wanted to get him off the American’s radar. They wonder what ISI’s angle is.

Professor Boyd is there to pack up his office but the mystery woman is there with a couple of
thugs. He tells her she’s risking a serious diplomatic incident. He says he’s not the guy and he’s
leaving. She tells him he’s not and has had a change of heart. Her guys punch him and force him
into a chair. Boyd demands a call and she brings him his phone.
She says if he calls, a packet will arrive to FBI HQ in DC showing the documents he stole
from his wife’s computer and a time line showing what he’s done. She says he’ll be arrested for
treason and his wife’s career is done. He asks who she is and she says he can call her Tasmeen
and beyond that, he doesn’t need to know. She says he can leave Islamabad a free man if he
does what she wants. She says the FBI and his wife will never know. She hands him a key and
he asks what it is. She says it’s how they begin.
Back at the office, Carrie tells Fara that Aayan will be back. She says if he had another way,
he would have gone with Haqqani. Fara asks if she should start on a passport for him and
reminds her she promised to get him out of Pakistan. Carrie says he’s not going anywhere and
that he’s aiding a terrorist. Carrie says a stalking horse is something you hide between when
stalking quarry. She says that’s what they’ll do to get his uncle. Fara says he’ll never agree and
Carrie says to get him to the safe house and she’ll worry about it.
Quinn sits at his desk late, bouncing a ball off the wall. Carrie lies in bed sleeping when
there’s a knock. She flips on the light and goes to the door. Fara is there with Aayan. She lets
the kid in and tells Fara she’ll see her tomorrow. She asks if he’s okay and he says he guesses
so. She asks if he did what he needed to and she asks how else she can help. He thanks her for
the money and says he’ll pay her back.
She offers to take his bag but he says no. She says he can stay there and he asks about
London. She says it will be two to three days to get him a passport and visa but tells him he’s
safe there. She says she’ll move into a hotel tomorrow so he can have privacy but says they can
make up the couch for him tonight. She goes to get bedding and a pillow but checks herself in
the mirror first. She comes out and asks him to give her a hand.
He does and they pull the pillows off the sofa and she smiles at him reassuringly. He helps
unfold the sheets and she chuckles and shows him how to make it up. She stands very close
and bumps him then says sorry. She puts down the pillow and offers a blanket. She lays that
out for him too. She says he must be exhausted and tells him to get some rest. She says it will
all work out no matter what he’s feeling now. She says the worst is over and says he deserves a
little grace.
He looks around and she asks what’s the matter. He says there is something he should have
told her. She asks what and he says he got kicked out of medical school yesterday. She asks why
and he says they accused him of stealing from the hospital pharmacy. She puts a hand on his
knee and says it’s okay but he insists he didn’t do it. He asks if it will keep him out of King’s
College and she says it won’t. He takes her hand and asks how and she says she’ll make them
understand. She tells him not to worry so much.
She moves her hand closer to his crotch and he asks what she’s doing. She says nothing but
keeps touching him. She leans in and kisses him. He looks at her in surprise and she asks if
that’s okay. He says he doesn’t know. She asks if he’s never done this before and he says no. She
leans in and kisses him again. She puts her arms around him and kisses him deeply and then
pushes him back into the sofa. She straddles him and he kisses her back and touches her. She
pauses but then he reaches for her and pulls her back into a kiss.

Carrie works a frightened asset; Quinn and Fara stake out a new suspect.
Carrie and Aayan lie in bed and he stares
at her sleeping in the morning light. He
pulls the blanker down and peeks under
it at her body. He lays the sheet back
down and her eyes open. She tells him
looking is okay. He’s embarrassed to be
caught at it. She sits up naked and he
asks if he should leave. She says she’ll
get them breakfast. He offers to go but
she says it’s best if he stays out of sight.
She dresses and asks if he’s all right. He
says yes and she lies down near him and
says it must be overwhelming. He agrees
and she asks what he wants for breakfast. She kisses him on the arm and says
she’ll be back.
Parvez negotiates with a shop owner to
rent out his shop. The guy says he’s respectable but he’s interested because they offer him a few
hundred bucks. He consents but says no sex and Parvez agrees. Deal made, Fara and Quinn get
out of the car where they were waiting and head inside. They set up their equipment to watch for
Haqqani. Quinn has his sniper rifle in case the guy does show. He asks what’s Fara’s problem
and she says Carrie promised her a desk job.
He reminds her she’s the one who found Haqqani trailing Aayan and says she’s in it now
and is good. Carrie meets with Saul who says it’s odd to be leaving when things are just getting
started. She wants him to talk to Lockhart about the ISI threat. He has the photo of Haqqani
and asks what her plan is to find him. She says she’s working the nephew and it’s going well. He
asks if he’s recruitable and she says he’s young and emotional. She says step one is getting him
to admit Haqqani is alive.
She says she likely has three days to get him hooked and Saul says that’s a tall f-ing order.
He promises to call her from DC. She gets out and they drive away. Aayan is packing when she
comes back and asks what he’s doing. He says he’s changed his mind and has to go. He says
117
Homeland Episode Guide
he’ll got to Kiran’s or school and she says he’s a public figure now. She says the video has made
him a CIA target and says they have a kill list. He says she told him yesterday the ISI was the
issue.
She tells him if he walks out the door, he will be grabbed up and disappeared. She says she
knows he must feel bad about them having sex. He says it’s against his faith and she says she
knows. He says he doesn’t want to sin and she says they don’t have to do it again. She says his
situation is very serious and he needs to stay put until they can leave for London.
Martha comes in complaining about shoes and her hubby asks if she has plans tonight. She
says there’s a concert and he says he’s heard enough Pakistani music for a life time. He tells her
he changed his mind about leaving and she says she has a meeting. She says she doesn’t believe
he ever had a GW offer and says if he wants to leave, to say it to her face. He says he wants to
stay and she asks why. He has no answer.
Fara asks Quinn how long he’s known Carrie and he says three years. She says Carrie told
her she needs to become a professional liar to become good at her job and he says she’s learning
from the best. He says lying, manipulating, exploiting are the keys to the job. She spots the cleric
and they snap photos. He tells her good eyes. At ISI HQ, Tasneem gives orders to find out how
Carrie is getting in and out of the compound.
A guy reports to her that Saul is flying out today. He says he met with Carrie and then changed
his flight plan to DC. He says they are playing a strange game. He says Saul is still in the hotel
gardens waiting on his flight. Tasneem says good riddance. Professor Boyd is looking for Carrie.
He has a gift and is knocking on her apartment door. A woman confirms it’s the right apartment,
but she’s not there. He’s sweating and nervous. The woman walks away and he decides not to
use the key he was given.
Saul is at the airport and sees Ghazi there. He calls Carrie to leave a message about it. He
rushes through security to keep an eye on him. Ghazi makes it through his security line and
Saul is trying keep an eye on him. He bribes a guard to go faster and takes off after him. Carrie
pours coffee for herself and Aayan and starts an ”interview” with him. She says she won’t publish
anything without his permission. She starts with his uncle Haqqani.
He asks what she wants to know and she says she knows he was the target of the air strike on
his village. He says they were close and he was around a lot when he was young then he wasn’t.
She asks where he went and he says — to the mountains. She asks to fight but he says to hide
from the drones. She asks what kind of man he was. Aayan says he was guided by two things —
Islam and Taliban bravery. She asks if he liked him and he tells her how he used to make him
laugh as a child.
He says he would tease him and have fun with him. Carrie asks if he was a hero and he says
he beat the Soviet Union and it collapsed. She asks how he felt about America and he says he
knew how to beat you too. She says she heard a crazy rumor that Haqqani wasn’t killed in the
attack. He says that’s not true and says he saw his body. She tells him to take it easy and it was
just a spook rumor. He says f- them and says it’s insulting.
Carrie says if he is alive, she has to wonder if he knew the strike was coming and he says
that’s not what happened. She says okay to calm him. At the airport, Saul checks the departures
board to see where Ghazi may be going. He lurks in the gift shop then follows the guy out and
down the terminal. He sees him in line for a flight and looking around nervously. Saul joins
another line nearby. Ghazi takes a seat now and Saul calls Quinn.
He tells him that Ghazi is at the airport and boarding an East India flight for South Africa. He
gives Quinn the flight info and says he’ll call back if the guy doesn’t get on the plane. He asks
him to let Carrie know. The Ambassador shows up looking for Quinn and Redmond tells her he’s
in the field. She says he helps her sometimes and he offers to assist. He asks if it’s Dennis and
she asks how he knows. He says spies know shit. She says her hubby is drunk in the bar and
he heads out to help.
Carrie and Aayan do dishes and she asks how long he’s going to give her the silent treatment.
She says she has a habit of making people angry. He says it’s hard to talk about these things
and she says she gets that. She says she wants to be honest with him and says she doesn’t want
any surprises when they get to London. She tells him she has a baby and he says he knows —
he saw the scar. She says she forgot his medical training. He asks what it is and she says a girl
named Francis but says the dad died before she was born.
He asks what happened to him and she says he was killed in the line of duty and says he was
118
Homeland Episode Guide
a journalist too. She says he was on an assignment that was too dangerous. She says it was her
fault because she sent him. She walks away and says they don’t have to talk about it but he says
he doesn’t mind. She says she usually keeps it to herself. He asks if she’ll tell her daughter when
she’s older and she asks how she can tell her that she’s the reason her dad is gone. He asks how
can she not.
Aayan says he’s sorry about her husband and she says he wasn’t her husband. She tears
up and says she would have liked it if he was. He steps closer and hugs her. The call to prayer
begins and she says she’ll leave him alone but he asks her to stay. She asks if he wants to pray
and he smiles shyly and asks if he can touch her again. He takes her hand and says he felt silly
last night.
She asks why and he says he didn’t know how. She tells him he did and he says he took and
didn’t give and she says he’s new at it. He asks how he gives and she says she’ll show him after
prayers. She steps close and kisses him and puts her arms around him. Later, they’re in bed
and he’s on top of her and she’s moaning and groaning but then starts to cry. He stops and asks
if he’s hurting her or doing something wrong. She says no, she’s just happy. She says he makes
her happy. He kisses her and they start up again.
Dennis talks about Sandy with Redmond in the bar. They were drinking buddies and Dennis
says Sandy got him in a lot of trouble. He tells Redmond he’s in a world of trouble. He asks if it’s
about Martha but he says worse. He says if he knew a way out, he’d take it. Tasneem shows up
then and introduces herself to Dennis as if they are strangers. She asks if the Ambassador lets
him roam free. Redmond asks why she’s there and she says meeting a friend then comments she
didn’t know they were close. Redmond says she’s an ISI ball buster and is probably on the job
now. Redmond asks what he was going to tell him but Dennis says to forget it.
Saul watches Ghazi and notices when he gets up and gets in line for a flight. Saul then
watches him leave the line and then walk off into the men’s room. He sits back down at the long
area to wait. He notices two suited men walk purposefully into the men’s room then come out
quickly. He watches the men’s room but still no Ghazi. Finally, he goes in to check for himself.
He sees Ghazi there and then a man sticks a syringe in Saul’s neck. They take him out of the
airport in a wheel chair.
Ghazi calls Tasneem and tells her it’s done. Parvez coaches Fara on her Urdu and then they
see the cleric is on the move on foot. Quinn goes to get the car and she heads out on foot as well.
She stays back a ways but keeps a close eye. He meets with a couple of guys and something is
handed off to him. He walks back toward her and she turns to walk away but now he’s behind
her. Looks like they gave him car keys because he unlocks a vehicle.
She hops in with Quinn and they follow. They decide they need eyes in the sky on this and
they need Carrie to authorize the drone but she’s been out of touch all day. Redmond brings a
drunk Dennis home and throws him on the sofa. She’s very embarrassed but he says Dennis
isn’t a bad guy. She says 20 years ago he was dashing and says now that guy is gone. He tells
her to get some sleep and then leaves. Dennis wakes on the sofa after she goes upstairs — he
may have been faking it (and I think he heard her call him a loser). He looks at the key in his
hand.
Fara and Quinn follow the cleric but realize they are heading into a no go area and agree they
don’t have a death wish to keep going. The cleric stops and is questioned. Quinn hands her a
tracker to try and put on the cleric’s car. He says he can’t get close enough since he’s white. She
takes it and gets out after he explains how to install it. Quinn gets Carrie’s voice mail again and
says she needs to answer her f-ing phone and says they need a drone ASAP.
Fara is stopped by a soldier and questioned and she is told to go back. The soldier’s check the
trunk of the cleric’s car and see Saul bound and gagged but just shut the trunk because they’re
Taliban. Fara gets back in the car and Quinn has to back out of the checkpoint before they get
into trouble -that means they’ve lost the cleric and also Saul, although they don’t know about
their former boss being kidnapped.
Dennis uses the key to access Carrie’s apartment. He looks around at her stuff, sees a photo
of her with Francis and snaps a photo of it. He goes into her bedroom and sifts through the
drawers then looks under her pillows. He goes into the bathroom and pokes around. He sees her
medicine bottles and snaps photos of those as well. Next morning, Carrie watches Aayan sleep
as she stands in the doorway. There’s a knock on the door and she goes to get it before it wakes
the boy.

It’s Quinn and he waits across the street. She runs over and asks why he’s breaking protocol.
He tells her she’s been AWOL. He tells her about Ghazi and the cleric. He says they lost him
without a drone and says she crapped the bed. He asks what she’s doing and she says she’s
recruiting. He says she’s f-ing a child then asks if there is no line she won’t cross. She asks what
his problem is and he tells her to enjoy it. She goes back inside and sees Aayan is up. She doesn’t
see him and then heads up.
She finds him on the roof and he asks who was at the door. She says it was a stringer — a
freelancer. He’s watching the sunrise and says it’s beautiful. She pats his back and says it is. He
says he has something to tell her before anything more happens. He says Haqqani is alive and
says he takes him medicine because he’s very sick. He says he doesn’t want to lie to her but says
it’s a secret and she can’t write about. She agrees not to tell anyone. He says he’s the only family
he has left and she comforts him and hugs him.

Carrie puts her operation in motion.
Carrie sits in bed with a half dressed
Aayan and works on his cover ID with
him. He kisses he and she tells him to
focus on learning the dossier. She runs
through a series of identifying questions
and then why he’s studying in England
instead of Pakistan. He has good answers
for all and then pulls her back into the
bed to cuddle with him. He indulges him
for a moment then shows him an envelope.
He opens it and sees a pile of money —
a thousand pounds. There’s also a passport in his new name. She tells him they
leave tonight. She says every day is a
chance for him to be caught. She says she
has some things to do and he says he has
to pick up some things from his dorm room. She wants him to leave the stuff but he says it’s all
he has. She makes him promise not to take any unnecessary risks and he agrees. She dresses
and heads out.
She comes to the station and finds Quinn and says she needs a small discrete team. He
hassles her about screwing the kid and she says his surveillance op crashed and burned because
she was in bed. H scoffs and calls her the boss and she says she’ll find someone willing to do
their job. She sees Redmond and pulls him in to talk.
Aayan is in his dorm room looking through photos of his family. He looks at his mother and
is very sad. He puts these into his bag. Kiran shows up and asks what he’s doing. He says he’s
leaving for London and she asks if he’s going for good. She asks how he can do this and he says
he has a friend who is a journalist. He says she can’t tell anyone. She asks if he was going to go
without a goodbye.
He says it’s not fair and asks her what he’s supposed to do. He tells her he has to leave
because of her father and says he has to go. She asks him to take her along and he says he
121
Homeland Episode Guide
can’t. She steps closer and he gets angry and tells her no. He says he has to go alone and she
acts jealous. He says the journalist saved him and asks when he met her and how. She asks if
he loves the woman.
He says she arranged for him to go to college in London and then she asks again and he says
he’s only known her a short while. He tells Kiran he has to go and says goodbye. He steps out
into the hall of his dorm. He’s very upset but keeps going. He sees a man waiting outside the
dorms for him and heads back inside then goes into a stairwell and heads out the emergency
exit.
The guy notices him but at least he has a head start now. Aayan pulls up his head and takes
off running into the crowd of students. He ducks into a building and hides behind a wall. His
pursuer walks on by. He sighs in relief. Boyd is there and says he has a gift for Redmond — they
get Quinn to help him. He tells him that Redmond bailed him out the other night.
Boyd says they talked about ball busting women. He hands Boyd a pen and paper and he
asks Quinn if she’s a crazy ass ball breaker like he’s heard. Quinn just stares at him and then
Hensleigh comes in and calls Quinn out. He goes and the guy tells him Ghazi didn’t get off the
plane in South Africa. He tells the guy to get in touch with Saul as soon as he touches down in
DC.
Boyd leaves and tells Quinn goodbye on the way out. Carrie walks down the street and lets
herself into her safe house. The guy from the campus watches from across the street. Inside,
Aayan tells her that he was chased but says he lost the guy. She says if it was ISI, there will be
no limits on what can happen to him. She tells him she’s not at risk as a foreigner but he is.
She says they have to push back their departure until things cool off. He tells her also about
Kiran and that he told her he was leaving. She asks if he said where they were going and he did
and says they need to leave now. She says she can find out ahead of time if he’s on the watch
list and says if he is, there’s no safe way to get him out of there. He says he knows and then says
his uncle can help.
He says his uncle can get him across the border through Afghanistan and then to England.
She asks if he would do that. He says Haqqani paid for his college and would help him. He holds
out his hand for his passport and she hands it over. He asks if she’s angry and she says it’s her
fault for letting her guard down. They see a shadow at the door and a guy breaks in the window.
She tells him to go and someone breaks in through the bedroom. She drags the guy off Aayan
and he runs for the roof. He scrambles across it and then down another roof and to the street.
He hits the ground and is running like a rabbit. He comes out of an alley and looks around but
sees no one. He hears tires squealing and goes to hide as a van pulls up.
He sees Carrie being shoved into the van and then it peals out past him. In the van, Carrie
asks if they had to make it so rough. They bloodied her nose. She tells them back to the Embassy
and says they’re going to cross their fingers and see where the kid goes. They pull into the
Embassy basement parking lot and Fara and Max are there. Carrie introduces then to Redmond
and explains the one guy hit her in the nose.
Carrie explains to Fara they put a tracker in Aayan’s passport. Fara wonders if she’ll take out
the kid when they spot Haqqani. Carrie tells her to stop calling him the boy — she says he’s an
adult who smuggles drugs to Jihadists. She says if she or Quinn have any issues with the boy,
she can remind herself she wouldn’t have to do any of this if she had recruited him successfully
like she was supposed to.
Carrie tells her to go to the safe house and clean up and contribute to the operation. Fara
reminds her she found Haqqani and there would be no operation without her. Boyd lurks in the
lobby of the Embassy but it’s not clear if he heard any of what they were arguing about. Carrie
goes upstairs and Redmond and Max show her the surveillance of Aayan at the bus terminal.
They watch him get on a bus to Karachi and Carrie says that’s the wrong direction. But then
he talks to a guy who points him to another bus. This is the right way — toward Gosa — where
his uncle has a training camp. Carrie is relieved that it seems to be working. He boards the bus
and it departs. Redmond says it’s a six hour bus ride and tells Carrie she can crash on the couch
in the next room.
He promises to wake her if anything happens. She goes to lie down. Fara looks at Aayan’s
photos he left behind at the safe house when he fled. She dumps them into a plastic bag along
with his jacket and some other items. She looks at the busted out side window by the door. We
see Boyd peeking in. He ducks back as she goes to put some cardboard into the window.
122
Homeland Episode Guide
The bus is stopped and everyone is told to take their bags and get off. They are herded off by
armed men. Max wakes Carrie and says something is happening. Aayan gets off with the others.
Some of the men search the luggage on the bus while others herd the passengers together. Carrie
watches and curses. She sees they’re checking papers. They down the line asking for passports.
Aayan looks nervous. The man asks him for his then slaps him. Carrie tells them to wait and
says he’s resourceful. He answers questions about his student visa and the soldier asks why he’s
there instead of on the way. He asks who he is and holds the passport up to the light. Aayan
gives his fake name but the guy yanks him out of line. Carrie tells Redmond to wait.
The soldier demands that he tell him the truth. Aayan hands over his money and says it’s
all that he has. The soldier snatches it and smiles. He tells him happy holidays and tosses his
passport back at him. Carrie smiles. Redmond is smug. Aayan picks his illegal papers up off the
ground and heads back onto the bus with the others.
Fara hears the security alarm beeping downstairs and puts in the code. She sees the bags of
stuff have been rifled. She notices the cardboard in the window is ajar. Hensleigh comes to tell
Quinn that Saul isn’t in DC and he can’t find him. Quinn tells him to get a number from Carrie
but the guy says she’s holed up in Ops 1 and he can’t get to her. Quinn tells him to call Saul’s
wife Mira.
The bus pulls up and Aayan hops off first. He heads down a street. They watch from satellites.
Carrie asks them to pull closer and they see he’s at a pay phone. Max is on it and she tells him
to hurry. Aayan is talking to someone and Carrie pushes on Max. They get it finally. They’re
running the number down as they listen. He’s talking to Haqqani.
Carrie asks what they said and the translator says they are meeting where they did when
he was a boy. Aayan they calls her and she has to scramble to close down the audio to avoid
feedback. She says she was worried she wouldn’t hear from him. He asks if she can talk and she
says she doesn’t know whose listening. She says she’s okay but they gave her 24 hours to leave
the country.
Aayan says he thought on the long ride and says he thought about just her. He says she
saved him many times and he wants her to know that he loves her. Everyone in the ops room
just stares. He says he can’t wait to see her again. She says she loves him too and they end the
call. She comes to sit by Redmond who just looks at her askance but says nothing.
Aayan heads out of the village and through a rocky field. He goes to a small forest and heads
into the trees. Carrie watches on the satellite feed. Redmond comes in and says Fara left her some
garbage bags. She asks Redmond what he thinks and he asks about what. She says everyone
heard what the kid said to her. Redmond sits and says he doesn’t think she cares what anyone
thinks.
She asks what if she does. He says they all thought Haqqani was dead but he’s not and now
they’re about to get him for real and she made that happen. He says that’s mostly what he thinks.
He leaves. Aayan kneels in the foothills of some mountains and prays to Allah as the sun comes
up. He stand and slips his shoes back on and continues his walk.
He walks through the foothills and stays near a creek. Finally, he comes to an area where
women are dipping water with buckets. He looks into the mountains and smiles. Carrie pours
coffee and goes back to watching his progress on the live satellite feed. Aayan pulls of his socks
and pulls up his jeans and steps into the water. He crosses to a couple of concrete structure left
in the creek and sits down. He lies back to feel the sun.
Boyd is at a cafe when Tasreem shows up. She asks if it’s early for him and he says he’s
turning over a new leaf. He says he got into Carrie’s apartment and shows her the photos of the
drugs. He says he thinks she’s at least bipolar and maybe worse. He points to a yellow building
across the way and says it’s a CIA safe house. He says there was a big clean up yesterday and
shows her the photos.
She says it’s Aayan and he says maybe not any more then shows her a travel dossier with a
new name. She tells Boyd he has a real gift for this and says she has to move on this. Aayan lies
relaxed on the concrete when men with guns approach. There are four of them. He stands and
crosses the creek to them. He puts his socks and shoes back on.
Carrie asks who these guys are and they look around. Max runs facial recognition on them
as they head to a the waiting truck. One is Azir Makdeshi and another is Basir Keshan. They are
both Haqqani’s guys. Aayan doesn’t appear nervous around the guys. They all stand and look
123
Homeland Episode Guide
around and Max asks what they’re doing. Carrie says they’re waiting and says Haqqani may be
coming.
They tell her they can’t protect the asset if they drone them. She says if the target shows up,
they take action. Quinn sees a note and asks for Hensleigh all up and down the hall. The note
said he never got on the plane. He says he just found out a couple of hours ago and Quinn yells.
Carrie asks what they’re looking at and we see a couple more trucks pull up.
Carrie says to sweep and get a positive ID. Aayan talks to a man who says he shouldn’t have
come. Quinn comes in and tells her Saul never got on the plane. She says they are in the middle
of this. They confirm it’s Haqqani and Redmond calls it in. They are about to bomb them when
they see a man dragged out of one of the trucks. It’s Saul.
Haqqani tells Aayan that this man was the head of the CIA. He asks what the woman said to
him and says the woman is practically his child. Haqqani says there is a drone overhead now
ready to kill them. Aayan looks up at the sky and into the camera of the drone. Haqqani says the
medicine saved his life. He thanks his nephew then puts a bullet in his head. Carrie curses.
Haqqani stares up at the drone but knows they won’t kill him because of Saul. Carrie orders
them to take the shot. Quinn says they can’t. Carrie orders the shot but Quinn says no. Max
hesitates and Quinn grabs her and shakes her and says it’s Saul. The vehicles roll out and, for
now, both Saul and Haqqani are safe. They watch the trucks roll out. Carrie storms out.
At an intersection, each of the three vehicles rolls out in a different direction. They ask Quinn
which vehicle the drone should follow. He’s not sure. Carrie paces in her office and tries to calm
down. She looks at the bags of stuff Fara left then swipes her desk clear in a fit of rage. She
begins to cry and shake.

Lockhart arrives; Carrie’s investigation gets complicated.
Someone is mixing up capsules — looks
like they’re planning on messing with
Carrie’s meds. The man mixes up a batch
of white and green capsule and hands
it to Tasreem. She takes the packet of
pills and leaves the pharmacy. At the Embassy, a convoy of cars streams in. Ambassador Boyd waits and the Director of
the CIA Lockhart gets out. He asks when
the Pakistanis will be there but says he’s
not confident they’ll help release Saul.
She introduces John Redmond and
Quinn. She asks to talk 15 minutes before the meeting. Lockhart asks where
Carrie is and Redmond says she’s pulled
herself out because she was overruled in
the ops room. Redmond tells Lockhart he
thought it was Carrie’s choice to make and Quinn says her CI was just killed and she was taking
a hard line that he disagreed with. He tells Quinn to get her and says this is no time to sulk.
She’s with Max and Fara — they are trying to figure out what drugs Aayan was getting for
Haqqani. She tells Fara to go ahead and tell her she sent the boy to his death but Fara says they
all did but she’s visibly upset. Quinn knocks on Carrie’s apartment door then lets himself in.
She’s not home. He pokes around then calls her. He asks where she is and says Lockhart wants
her. She says to tell him she’s on the way. He asks what she’s doing and she says she’s trying to
find Saul. Quinn says that’s good.
Boyd’s creepy hubby Dennis is hiding and Quinn didn’t see him. He’s there to snap more
photos of her drugs. He counts out some of her pills, flushes them down the toilet and replaces
them with the ones Tasreem had made. He compares his photo to how he replaced the bottles
then leaves. Lockhart chastises the station personnel and says they have been dysfunctional but
are Saul’s best hopes. Redmond says the gag order is making it harder. Carrie comes in.
125
Homeland Episode Guide
Redmond says all anyone needs to know is they’re looking for Haqqani. She asks to talk to
Lockhart privately and she says she has a lead on Haqqani. She says he has a serious illness
that requires medication. She says she’s following up now. They get a call saying the Pakistani
delegation is there and Carrie and Lockhart go to face them down.
Saul and Haqqani ride in a car and Saul tells him he has no value to him because his knowledge is obsolete but Haqqani says he’s proven his worth. He says being able to drive freely in
the light of day is because of Saul’s presence. He tells Saul he hasn’t seen his wife or children in
three years because it’s been too dangerous. He says thanks to Saul, he will again. He calls him
his human shield.
The Ambassador tells the Minister she knows this is difficult but knows they talk to these
people sometimes. Tasreem is there and Bunny demurs. Martha asks him to exert some influence
but Bunny says Saul is a big prize and nothing they could offer Haqqani would pay for that.
Lockhart tells him it’s time for blunt talk. He says they know Haqqani didn’t pull this off alone.
Bunny asks what he means.
Lockhart says his predecessor was taken from an airport guarded by the Pakistani military
and the ISI. Bunny asks what he’s accusing him of and Lockhart says there are people among
them sympathetic to Haqqani as they were to Bin Laden. Lockhart calls them double dealers
and says it’s unacceptable. Lockhart says to get Saul returned or Pakistan’s aid package will be
under review immediately. That shocks even Martha.
Bunny tells Martha goodbye but doesn’t address Lockhart. The delegation leaves. Martha asks
what in God’s name he’s thinking and says threats don’t work here. She says he doesn’t have
that authority but he say the President gave it to him. She asks why she wasn’t told and he says
he’s telling her now. Carrie also leaves the meeting room. Dennis lurks as the delegation walks
out.
Carrie asks for a word with Aasar and says she knows he was one of the last people to see
Saul alive. She says he’s at the epicenter of this shit storm. She says they know about Ghazi
being at the airport and that Saul saw him there. She calls the ISI into question and says to
prove her wrong by showing her all the surveillance tapes from the airport. He tells her to hop in
the car with him now and they’ll go.
She agrees to meet him there in 30 and he says terminal three by customs. She goes up to her
apartment, takes one of the fake pills and then starts to have a panic attack of sorts. She cools
off with a wash cloth. Dennis comes to see Martha who says she’s drafting a letter of resignation.
She says her position there is no longer tenable. He closes the door and asks what happened.
She tells him they are leveraging the aid package to get Saul’s release without telling her.
He says it seems a small price to get Saul back. She says Lockhart destroyed her relationships
there. He tells her he won’t let her give up her life’s work. She is surprised and says she thought
he hated it there. Dennis says it’s starting to grow on him.
Quinn drives Carrie and she says she gets why he did what he did but says taking out Haqqani
was right even if it took out Saul too. She says she knows it’s harsh but says Saul would agree.
She says Saul is humiliated right now and would put a bullet in his brain to prevent them from
moving mountains to get them. She says she’s glad Saul isn’t dead and says it’s bad enough to
have Aayan on her conscience too.
They are at the airport looking at footage and Aasar says the cameras on Saul’s concourse
were out. They do have some footage to show them and it’s him lurking near the coffee stand.
She asks Aasar if he doesn’t find it suspicious that there were no working cameras from where
Saul disappeared. He says it was unfortunate and then she asks what they did with the evidence.
She starts hearing crazy noises — like clanging when a woman is stirring her coffee and other
aggravated sounds. She thinks a guard is hiding something in his bag and makes him show her,
but it’s just his lunch. Whatever they gave her is making her freak out horribly. The nurse they
were looking for has gone missing and they assume she’s dead.
Carrie tells them to find Aayan’s GF Kiran because she likely knew about the medicine.
Haqqani and Saul ride through a village where Haqqani is greeted like a hero. Lockhart gets
a report that Haqqani’s Mercedes is rolling toward his former HQ and he tells them to get Carrie
up there now. They are furious that the terrorist is staging a public homecoming under their
noses.
The car pulls up and Haqqani’s young children flock around them. He hugs and kisses them
all. One of the kids throws a show at Saul and Haqqani picks it up and asks whose it is. Marwand
126
Homeland Episode Guide
says it is his — he’s an older child. Marwand says that man is the enemy. His dad tells him no
harm must come to Saul and he must hide his feelings toward him. He tells his son to apologize
and he does.
Saul nods. Haqqani takes them all inside his compound. Saul isn’t bound, but is escorted by
guards. Haqqani sees his wife and goes to her. She cries and embraces him. Saul is forced the
follow them all inside. Carrie comes to the ops center and Lockhart asks what their options and
assets are. John says they haven’t been able to break into that area.
Carrie says they need to rescue him today before they move but they tell her it takes weeks to
prepare this. Redmond says it’s impenetrable in that area. She curses at him and Lockhart asks
what’s gotten into her. She says nothing but is clearly agitated. Lockhart tells her to go take a
break then asks to talk to the White House and special ops in Kabul.
Carrie goes up to her apartment and sits on her bed panting. It looks like the walls are falling
apart around her. She curses and falls back onto her bed then pulls her blankets around her.
Saul asks Haqqani what they were shouting at him in the streets and he says they were calling
him the Arrow of God. Saul asks isn’t he tired of war and Haqqani says they could have left them
alone but Saul reminds him of 9/11.
Haqqani says they did not do that, al-Qaeda did and Saul says they hid them. Haqqani says
many of those that helped were Saudis but they didn’t occupy their country. Haqqani says America came, stayed and destroyed their culture and religion. Saul says his version of Islam is regressive and backward. Saul asks if he’s okay with subjugation of women and says they have
taught an entire generation to live with one foot in the grave.
Saul says — you just killed your nephew then sacrificed a lot of his family at the wedding.
Haqqani mocks Christianity but Saul says he’s a Jew. That takes him back a little. Carrie wakes
when he phone buzzes. It’s Max and he says Kiran just started a shift at the hospital. She says
to pick her up in half an hour. She goes into her bathroom, unsteady and takes one of the fake
pills and pockets two more to take with her. As she walks out, she hears the fluorescents buzzing
insanely loudly.
She heads out through the secret tunnels and is looking rough. The traffic is ultra loud to her.
Lockhart talks to special ops and he says the potential for casualties his high and they could just
kill Saul at any time. Lockhart says to work on a viable plan and call back. Haqqani is with his
wife having loud sex and Saul is chained nearby, close enough to hear everything. He is clearly
miserable being neat the terrorist sex fest.
Carrie makes it to the hospital and looks for Kiran. She is very disoriented. She sees Kiran
and runs to her. She introduces herself and says she was writing an article about Aayan. She
says she heard about her and asks where Aayan is. She says he went to see his uncle to take
him medicine. Kiran says she knows nothing about this and Carrie struggles to recall the name.
She curses.
Then Quinn is there and tells her she can’t harass hospital staff. She asks if he’s going to tell
her shit about caring for her again and she assaults him then runs out into the street. She’s lost
her head scarf and then vomits near a market stall then backs away. She’s coming apart at the
seams. She hears loud music everywhere then sees a monkey and screams.
A car horn sounds and she begins to have a flashback of when Sandy dies. She runs into a
large man who curses her in Urdu. She roams the streets and falls down when she is almost
knocked over by a motorcycle. She sees a car there and panics. She thinks they were following
her. The people step out of the car and she shoots them both. Police pull up and grab her.
She tells them to let go of her then weeps hysterically as they cuff her and drag her away.
Lockhart asks if they think Saul and Haqqani are still at the house but they can’t confirm it.
Quinn is there in the ops room. The guy she thought was Quinn was somebody else and she was
hallucinating his face onto the other person’s.
Saul and Haqqani are back in the car and Saul sleeps. He wakes Saul and he asks if he knows
where he is. Saul says he’s guessing they are in the tribal areas. Haqqani says they are eight miles
from Afghanistan, the graveyard of empires. He sees a light in the distance and Haqqani cranks
the car.
Martha shows up to see Lockhart. He was resting on the couch. She tells him his outburst
has jeopardized four years of careful diplomacy. He says he doubts the delegacy was surprised.
She asks for an update and he says they are in a holding pattern. She asks if would be good to
127
Homeland Episode Guide
have the Pakistanis back on their side. She says the foreign minister called and is coming at 7 to
brief her.
Lockhart asks to be at the meeting and she agrees but says it has to be done her way. He
agrees. Carrie is in a cell freaking out. The flies are buzzing loudly and then she’s dragged out of
her cell while she demands to know where she is and begging not to be taken. Haqqani and Saul
pull up to a little shack. They pull Saul out of the car and he walks behind Haqqani.
They head inside and Haqqani tells him he hopes his stay there will be short. Haqqani says
he’s going to take Afghanistan back and Saul asks him and who. He says a lot of factions are
going to try this. Haqqani says he’s swapping Saul for a bunch of prisoners. Saul says they will
never agree to it because he’s not that valuable. He says the Director of the CIA doesn’t think so.
He says it has already begun.
Carrie is taken in a strait jacket to a home. They unlace and free her and shove her into a
fancy room. She goes to the French door but there’s a snarling canine outside. She backs away
from the door. She opens another door and looks around the house. She hears a door open
upstairs and runs back into the room. Someone comes into the room and she tackles him. It’s
Brody.
He tells her not to be scared and she screams at him to get the f- away from her. He says she’s
safe. He tells her to look at him. He tells her to open her eyes. She does and then slaps herself
and says to wake up. He tells her to stop it. She says she saw him die and he says her mind is
playing tricks on her and it’s over and he’s here now. She says he’s not and he asks why it’s so
hard to believe.
She looks at him and says she wants to believe. She cries and he tells her to. He puts her
hand to his face and she says — it’s really you. She cries and kisses him then hugs him to her.
She holds him and sobs. She asks why he’s so cold and she asks if he’s mad at her. She says he
came back to punish her for what she did because he hates her.
She says she was willing to let him die and he says he doesn’t know what she’s talking about.
He says no one has died. He says he’s right in front of her and she sobs. He pulls her close and
says she’s safe now. She holds him and cries and cries. She says his name over and over again.
He asks who Brody is. It’s Aasar who has her and is holding her! He asks who Brody is.

Carrie organizes a last-ditch operation; Lockhart and Martha stall Pakistan’s Inter-Services-Intelligence.
Carrie wakes in a bed that’s not hers.
She sits up and looks around. She sees
a man outside her window and struggles
to pull herself together. She sees shoes
by the bed and tries to grab them. She
can barely stand and clings to the poster
of the bed. She struggles over to a sofa
then goes to look outside. There’s a patio
with a table and she sees a guard nearby.
She walks further out then staggers and
catches herself on a chair.
Aasar is there and asks how she’s feeling. He says she was in quite a state.
She looks around and asks if this is his
house. He says it is. She asks how she got
there and he says — you don’t remember? He says his men brought her there
because she was causing a commotion in the street and the police locked her up. He asks if she
really doesn’t remember and he says she told him some things last night about herself because
she thought he was someone else.
She goes back inside and almost falls. He tells her she needs to rest but she says no. He picks
her up and puts her in the bed. She’s shivering and he wraps the blankets around her. He leaves
her there. Lockhart asks if they’ve found Carrie and Quinn says they are still looking. They are
headed to meet with the Pakistanis. Aasar shows up as part of the Pakistani group and runs
into Tasreem. He says he had an unexpected guest and she says she knows and asks why he
intervened.
He says she was out in the street acting crazy and they didn’t need another incident. She asks
why he thinks Carrie was acting like that. She says she would have been on plane, relieved of
her post if he hadn’t intervened. She’s angry and stomps away. They all head into the meeting.
Saul is woken up and put in chains. He’s hauled out and put in front of a flag so that he can
be seen on the video screen at the meeting. He looks at the camera and says don’t do a f-ing
thing they ask. They drag him out of sight. Lockhart says to tell them if Saul is hurt, all bets are
off and Tasreem says she’ll try to convey that message.

Haqqani is there then reading off a list of names. Lockhart asks if they are prisoner names
and Tasreem says they are being held at Bagram. Lockhart reminds them that Haqqani also
killed Pakistanis and Tasreem says those are Haqqani’s demands, not theirs but Lockhart isn’t
buying it. They agree to meet tomorrow after talking to each of their governments.
When Saul is taken back to his cell, he fights his captors, is knocked to the floor and takes
that opportunity to steal a nail he saw there earlier. He hides it and then once they leave, begins
to work on his chains. Carrie is up and about at Aasar’s. She sets out a couple of pills to take.
She pops one in her mouth then spits it out into her hand.
Aasar comes in and asks if she’s feeling better. She asks why his men were following her and
he says they weren’t. He says the police were called on her because she was acting crazy. She
says she thinks someone tampered with her medications. He says nothing and then asks if she
thinks he did it. He says he didn’t do it and she asks who did. He says he has no idea. She asks
if he’d tell her if he knew.
He says he saved her and she needs to rest. She says she’s leaving and he offers to drive her
back to the Embassy but she says she can get herself there. She goes to see the doctor and has
blood drawn and a nurse brings her new medications. Quinn comes in and Carrie says they have
a breach because someone got in and swapped her meds.
She meets with Lockhart and Quinn. He asks who could do it and wants to tell the Ambassador. She doesn’t want to tell anyone. They tell her about the prisoner exchange demands to
get Saul back. It’s all of Haqqani’s command structure. She asks what the plan is and Lockhart
says there is no plan. He says no one wants this, not even Saul but can’t have Saul’s head in a
basket. He asks her what to do.
She says they need to find another way and he says he needs something more specific. He
also says he needs to tell the Ambassador what happened to Carrie. He leaves and Quinn asks
what happened to her last night. She says she has no idea what happened and she wound up at
Khan’s house who says he picked her up from police lockup. She says they exploited a weakness
but Quinn says they poisoned her.
Saul works on his handcuffs. He’s in pain and trying to hurry. He hears noises and has to
stop. He lies down and coughs as a guard peers in through the window on his cell door. He goes
back to work on the cuffs once the man moves on. He got one hand loose. He hears voice again
but keeps working. Lockhart goes to see the Ambassador about the breach. Lockhart says this
feels like a war.
He tells Boyd he doesn’t know how she sits across from the Pakistanis every day and she says
that’s what being a diplomat is about. He says they hate us. Dennis comes in and says Lockhart
didn’t look happy. He’s brought her a treat that’s about halfway to a donut. She tells him to stay
inside for a while and says to find someone else to cover his class. She says it’s not safe.
She tells him there was a breach at the Embassy and he can’t tell anyone. He agrees. Great.
She told the breacher about himself. What a moron. She tells him to be careful. A guard hears a
noise and goes into Saul’s cell. He finds the man has hung himself. He grabs a bucket and stands
up to cut him down. He does and then Saul attacks. He was only faking suicide. He chokes the
man to death.
He rolls the guy over and then searches him. He takes the guy’s cell phone. He calls Carrie
as he runs outside. He tells her it’s him. She runs to wake Quinn and says Saul escaped but
doesn’t know where he is. She says he’s calling back in 11. She has Redmond and the others
ready when he calls. He asks what to do and he says they have to locate him. He says it’s pitch
black and they work to track the cell signal.
They pull up a map and Quinn tells him to calm down. Saul says he’s just in bad shape. They
tell him to be quiet since sound travels. He says — just tell me what to do. Redmond says he’s
near Makin where they have an asset. Quinn tells him to go up to a ridge line. He makes it there
and tells them to get him out of there. They tell him to look for lights on the valley floor and tells
him they have an asset there.
It’s 20 miles away. They give him the asset’s name and tell him it’s a grocer and that Special
Forces will extract him there. Quinn tells him it will be radio silent until the extract him but Saul
asks to talk to Carrie alone first. She steps out to take the call. She says it’s just them. He says
he won’t be recaptured. He says he won’t be a pawn in the prisoner exchange. He tells her no
one can suffer for his mistakes.

He asks if she hears him and she says she does. He makes her promise to drop a bomb on
the whole mess if anything goes wrong. He says escape or die and tells her to promise. She says
okay but he makes her say it out or else he’s walking off a cliff right now. She says escape or die
and promises. He repeats back the extraction information to her and ends the call.
Dawn finds him still walking toward the village wrapped in the guard’s cloak. Carrie says he’s
almost there and they tell her Special Forces is 90 minutes away. Quinn asks Carrie what Saul
said to her and she says he made her promise escape or die. Quinn says it won’t come to that
and she says she hopes not. Lockhart says the Pakistani group is there and the Ambassador has
been told to stall.
They wonder if they know Saul has escaped. Dennis approaches Tasreem and says they know
about the pills and that Carrie is on a rampage to find out who poisoned her pulls. She says she
has something for him to do but he says it’s too hot. She hands him a napkin and Aasar sees the
exchange. The Ambassador starts the meeting with a daily proof of life demand.
She next says one of the names on your list and the Pakistani rep Bunny says that it’s not our
list. She says one of the men has in infection. Carrie slips a note to Lockhart that the Pakistanis
don’t seem worried. Saul lurks in the alley across from the grocer’s. He sees the man open up
his shop and then walks in and calls out to the man. The guy pulls a gun on him and asks who
he is.
Saul says didn’t they say and he tells Saul to shut up. Saul says if he doesn’t know what he’s
talking about shoot him, otherwise, he’s come for help. Carrie watches Tasreem as Boyd works
through the list. Carrie steps out of the meeting and Lockhart follows. Tasreem smiles as they
go. Carrie tells Lockhart they know where Saul is.
Carrie comes in and says they don’t have to find Saul, all they have to do is find the drone.
She says they know where help is coming from. Lockhart says that’s why they’re being so smug
and says they have to give the team a hand up. Carrie calls the Special Forces team but then
they lose their radio signal. Carrie tries to warn them. They are in an old VW bus.
They curse and try to call in and tell her the Taliban are everywhere. They have to reroute
and Carrie says it will take them forever. The grocer tells Saul that Haqqani is Taliban and came
there shutting down the school and pushing for Sharia no one wanted. He says they killed his
father and then everyone else backed down. He says he called the Americans the next day.
Carrie calls just then and asks Saul how he is. He says he’s ready to go but she says there’s
been a change of plans. She says she wants to move him to the South edge of town for pick up.
She tells him to take an alley to the hospital. She says there is a park behind the hospital and
says to take the phone and keep it on. The grocer also gives Saul a gun to take with him. They
watch him leave via drone.
The grocer steps outside and sees a truck full of armed men roll into town and disburses.
Tasreem gets a text during the meeting. Boyd says she’s sorry about the delay and Tasreem says
it’s okay, she’s sure Lockhart and the others will be back soon. Special Forces calls in and says
they have been stopped by Taliban. The Taliban approach and then open fire. They return fire
and throw it in reverse.
Carrie wants them to press on but they have to back away because of the Taliban presence.
She sees on the drone that Taliban are all over and calls Saul. She tells him there is Taliban all
over. They are tracking him. Saul says there’s too many of them. She tells Saul to hang tight. He
says he can’t get through. He sits down and says no. She says to keep moving. He says he won’t
go back to those people.
He tells her they had a good run and that they’re everywhere. He says there are too many. He
puts the gun to his head but she says she’s in the ops room and can see that it can work. She
tells him to do exactly what she says. Quinn tells her they can’t get Special Forces there. She
tells Saul they’re waiting for him at the rendezvous. He’s crying hard now. He still has the gun
in his hand.
She tells him to exit the courtyard. He stands and tucks the gun into his pants. She tells him
to take a right at the alley. He says that’s the way he came. He rushes out and she sends him
down a few buildings and left. He sees more Taliban and she directs him to a door. He says it’s
locked and tries the next few then ducks into a building. She says to look for an exit across the
building.
He sees one and she says it will take him to a street where there’s a park. He’s surrounded.
She sent him directly into their hands and he screams out that she f-ing lied to her and he curses
131
Homeland Episode Guide
her and calls her a f-ing whore. She tells them to turn off the sound. Lockhart says he’s going
back to the conference room. He says he was really looking forward to telling the Pakistanis to
go f- themselves but that can’t happen now.
He goes back in and sits. He tells them to tell Haqqani they’ll meet his demands. Tasreem
does not look surprised. The Pakistanis stand and leave. Carrie tells Quinn she was trying to
do the right thing and may have steered him to his death. She says she betrayed Saul and asks
how saving his life could be the wrong choice but it was. She says there was nothing but wrong
choices.
She says nothing good can happen in their world. Quinn says they’ve been up for two days
and says they need some rest. He tells her goodnight and leaves. Carrie puts in her earplugs and
goes to her bed with her sleep mask. She climbs under the covers and turns off the light. Her
phone rings. She takes the call. She leaves the Embassy in the rain to meet someone.
It’s Aasar. He approaches and she says — you won. He asks — did we. She asks what he
needed to tell her. He says he didn’t tamper with her drugs. She says he already said that and he
says he needs her to believe him. He says she makes everything so hard. He says she complains
about distrust and she says what they did to her was f-d up. She says maybe it’s fair and what
we do to each other but it didn’t feel fair.
She says she believes him. He walks back over closer and she says she knows he’s telling the
truth because she remembers some of it now — enough. She says the part at the end, with him,
is part of what she remembers. He tells her it was Dennis Boyd that switched her pills. He says
— he’s working against you, that’s all that I can say.

Carrie improvises to salvage her mission; the CIA closes in on a leak.
They have the prisoners Haqqani wants
freed. They are leaders that sell drugs,
recruit suicide bombers, act as logistics
commanders and known bombers. Quinn
signs to take custody of the motley group.
Carrie tells Lockhart that Quinn has the
prisoners but she says there is more going on. She says Haqqani faked his death
long before the opportunity came to take
Saul. She says she’s working a source to
figure out what he had planned originally.
Lockhart asks her who’s running Boyd
and she says Aasar wouldn’t tell her who
on the Pakistani side is running him. She
says they’ll know more when they question Dennis. Redmond calls Dennis is
saying he needs some advice and brings
him into his office. He asks if they can keep this between them and says it’s about Sandy. He
says Sandy was generating a lot of good intel before he died but says his methods weren’t kosher.
He says Sandy was trading secrets for the info and asks if Dennis knows anything about it.
He asks if he ever saw Sandy meeting with someone he shouldn’t or taking things out of the
Embassy. Dennis says no and Redmond says the info came from his wife’s computer. He asks if
he thinks he did it then asks if he’s kidding. Redmond tells him now is the time to come clean.
Dennis swears it wasn’t him but says he’ll let him know if he thinks of anything.
Carrie watches and then Redmond comes in — she says Dennis is making a call. They lost
the connection and Carrie says their evidence is weak and he may keep stonewalling them. She
says to let him sweat for a couple of hours then grab him again for another go-round at the next
level. Saul is hauled out of his cell and taken to sit by a window. A woman comes in to check him
over and he asks what she’s doing. She takes off his glasses and washes his wounds.
Once done, they drag him outside and load him into the back of a van and lie him down. They
drive off with him. Carrie and Quinn watch the prisoners get loaded up and he wonders if they’re
133
Homeland Episode Guide
doing the right thing. She says getting Saul back is the right thing. Redmond brings Dennis to
an interrogation room where Carrie waits. She greets him and says she has something for him
to look at.
She shows him copies of the documents Sandy traded and says they know he was the only one
that could have downloaded them and they synced his key card to when they were downloaded.
She calls him a traitor and reminds him she’s fucking CIA. He tries to leave and finds the door
locked. She tells him to tell her who Sandy’s contact was at ISI that is now running him. She
says she knows he swapped her medication.
She holds out the pills and says the pills she was given were twice as potent as LSD. He asks
for a lawyer and she says — you poisoned me and you think I’m going to let you talk to a lawyer.
She tells him to sit the fuck down. She leaves him there alone but says she’ll be back. Saul has a
bag over his head and is lead down a narrow alley. He can see his feet and that’s all. He’s brought
to a room and sat before a flag. They have a video camera on him and Haqqani snatches the bag
off his head.
He tells Saul — welcome back to Islamabad — and says he hopes his journey was comfortable. He has Saul gagged. He talks to the camera about the drones murdering their women and
children. He says they will drive them from the skies. He says Saul will bring them back their
brothers and together they will march back to Kabul. He speaks Urdu then and the video ends.
Haqqani’s son stares at Saul. They take his gag off and turn off the lights they used for the
filming. He’s left in the room with the boy.
Carrie watches Dennis on a security feed. He sits in the room on the edge of the table. She
gets a call from Mira who says she talked to Ambassador Boyd that it’s all happening tomorrow
and Carrie tells her they will have Saul back tomorrow. Mira says she knows swapping Saul
for these people is a bad deal and worries the CIA will back out. Carrie says she’s running the
exchange not Lockhart. Mira says she knows that and why she’s worried.
She says Saul is proud of her and asks her to remember normal life and to remember she
loves Saul and knows Carrie does too. She begs her not to let Saul die. Saul sits staring at the
kid who lies sleeping on the floor. It sounds like the kid is having a nightmare. Saul speaks to
him softly in Urdu to comfort him. The kid calms down into a more restless sleep.
Next morning, Carrie comes in and plays the video for him of Sandy being mauled to death.
She says this is how the other side behaves and these are the people he’s spying for. She says
killing a CIA station chief is a big deal and that means there are more American lives at stake
from a bigger agenda. He plays dumb. She says he passed state secrets and drugged her then
asks what else he was asked to do. She says this is a matter of national security and has no idea
how much discretion that gives her.
She says she can take him to a black site and have him professional interrogated and tells
him not to think she won’t do it. He tells her to go to hell and she says she just fucked himself.
Carrie makes a call as the Ambassador forces her way in. She tells Dennis to come with her and
tells Carrie she’s finished here. Carrie breathes and thinks.
Dennis tells his wife Carrie accused him of spying for the ISI. She asks if Carrie produced any
evidence and he lies and says nothing. She says it’s not likely they would have accused him out
of thin air and asks if there’s a student or someone at the university he’s been talking to. She
asks if he’s been having an affair and he denies it. She says she has to go take care of the Saul
thing and tells him to stay put and call if Carrie tries anything.
The Ambassador goes back downstairs and finds Lockhart and Carrie waiting. She says he
has denied it all and says she thinks her husband knew she was playing him. She says she’ll
keep trying and Carrie says it’s a hell of a time for him to develop a backbone. Carrie tells Quinn
she wants him to stay at the Embassy on the ops room. She says she wants him to watch for
anything that would let Haqqani keep or kill Saul while still getting his guys. He says he’ll keep
his eyes open.
The boy shakes Saul awake and offers him tea. Saul sits up and takes a sip from the cup he’s
offered. There are armed men close by. Dennis packs a bag and is heading out of their residence.
The Marine guard stops him and says he can’t leave the house for his own safety. He says he has
to go to his office but the Marine says no. The Ambassador shows up and asks why he needs to
go to his office so urgently. He says he has papers to grade and she asks what’s in the bag.
She demands he show her. He won’t and she has the Marine take it. He has clothes, passport
and money. She says to tell him what he’s involved in before she has him locked up. She tells
134
Homeland Episode Guide
him to stop lying and he says he’s not. She tells the Marines to lock him up and that he’s allowed
no visitors or calls. He begs her not to do it but they take him away. Carrie and Redmond show
up to meet Bunny and Remaster who wants to know why Lockhart isn’t there.
Carrie says they’ve got it covered. They talk about how the prisoner exchange will take place.
Redmond asks what assurance they have that Haqqani won’t overrun the site and take the
prisoners while keeping Saul. She gets a call and says it’s Lockhart but she calls Aasar and
says this doesn’t seem right. She says they are very exposed and he says he was shut out of
the planning. He admits that’s unusual. She asks about a double cross. [10:35:41 PM] Rachel
Rowan: He ends the call and Carrie pretends to still be on hers before she walks back to the
table. Bunny answers Redmond’s questions. Saul is brought to another van and loaded into it.
He sees one of them men put a suicide vest onto the kid and calls the man who puts it on him a
f-ing coward for not wearing it himself. He says the boy is happy to wear it because his parents
were killed in a drone attack when Saul was running the CIA. They load the boy in with Saul.
Lockhart and Quinn watch from the ops center. The exchange is ready to go down. Aasar,
Tasneem and Bunny are at a distance watching through binoculars. Carrie asks Quinn if he
sees anything but he doesn’t. The prisoners are unloaded from their van. Carrie radios to the
Pakistanis that the prisoners are there. Tasneem radios back. Carrie says to show Saul. Tasneem
talks on a walkie and then the van pulls up onto the tarmac and drives close to where the
prisoners are.
Carrie checks with Quinn again and he says the perimeter is still clear. The door of the van
opens and Saul is pulled out. He fights them but they muscle him out. They drag him out bodily
and down the tarmac. He finally stands and Tasneem tells Carrie to let the prisoners go. Carrie
says to tell them to leave Saul and pull back or she wont release them. The kid is out of the van
and standing there. The guys get back in the van but leave the kid. Tasneem says she doesn’t
know what that is and Carrie says he has to go too.
The sniper sees the bomb vest and Carrie orders the prisoners to their knees. Tasneem says
she didn’t know about the vest and Carrie threatens to execute the prisoners now. She tells
Quinn to find the detonator but they don’t know since everyone has a cell phone. Tasneem says
the boy is insurance and will leave with the prisoners. Carrie says to make the swap. They stand
the prisoners back up and Saul starts to hyperventilate a little.
Carrie and Redmond watch as the prisoners begin to walk forward. Saul looks at them and
then sits down on the ground. Carrie calls for them to stop the prisoners. Tasneem asks what
he’s doing and Carrie says he must not trust the boy but Tasneem says Saul is the problem. A
man comes forward with the detonator and demands that Saul get up. Saul says to blow them
all to hell. Carrie says she’ll go get Saul and Tasneem checks then agrees.
Carrie walks toward him and Lockhart asks what she’s doing. Quinn says she’s trying to keep
this thing alive. She approaches Saul and tells him he has to move. She pulls his hands off his
face and tells him to come with her. He refuses. She says she promised Mira she was bringing
him home and he says she promised him no prisoner exchange. He says he can’t live with this.
He tells her not to give one prisoner. He says to go and she says she won’t leave without him. He
says then they can both die. She asks about the boy and he says the kid said his f-ing prayers
and thinks he’s going to happen.
Carrie says he sounds like them. She asks what he thinks he’s going to accomplish doing this
and says this is not who we are. She says this is not who he is. She begs him to come with her
and begins crying. She tells him to get up and puts her arms around him and tries to lift him
up. She cries and curses at him. She tells him no more dying. Bunny watches all this through
the binoculars. She tells him she wants to go home and pulls him to stand. They walk down the
runway. She grabs her walkie and tells Redmond they’re ready and he can send the prisoners.
They walk and the prisoners walk toward them. The Ambassador, Lockhart and Quinn watch
from the ops center. Carrie looks back at the boy and picks up Saul’s glasses. Tasneem watches.
The prisoners pass by Carrie and Saul and they walk away. They are instantly surrounded by an
armed squad. Aasar, Bunny and Tasneem get into their car ready to leave.
It looks like it all went down as planned. Quinn and Lockhart watch the cars disperse. Bunny
walks over to the prisoners and speaks to them in Urdu. They are unlocked from their shackles.
He walks away. The Ambassador goes to talk to her husband in his cell. She’s buzzed inside and
tells him the prisoner exchange worked despite some tension. She says Saul is on his way back.
He says that’s good. She asks how they ended up there and Dennis says this is all the CIA’s fault.
135
Homeland Episode Guide
He says ever since that wedding was bombed, it’s their fault. He tells her there is no evidence
against him but she tells him to stop. They sit in silence. Saul rides with Carrie back to the
Embassy. She holds his glasses still. Redmond gets a call and tells Saul it’s Mira. He doesn’t
reach for the phone. He looks over at Carrie who hands him his glasses. He sighs and takes the
call. The car in front of them is blown to bits. Their SUV stops. Another escort vehicle is blown
up.
Lockhart is alerted to RPG sound. They tell them they can’t get an answer from Carrie and
says the convoy was hit. He curses and tells them to find Quinn. He asks how far it is and tells
them to deploy the Marines ASAP. The convoy looks to be in bad shape with car fires burning
everywhere. The Marines roll out and the guard tells Martha what’s happening. She says she has
to go and Dennis asks if all the Marines went to assist. He says Tasneem wanted to know how
Carrie got in and out and says he told her about the tunnels. Sure enough, there are some bad
guys breaking into the tunnels. It’s Haqqani and many armed men. Saul may wind up a Martyr
yet.

The security breach at the Embassy has far reaching consequences.
Carrie and Saul are alive, but looking
bad. Carrie comes to with her ears ringing
from the explosion and bleeding from the
head. US soldiers are retrieving them. It
looks like Redmond is dead with a huge
shard of glass through his neck. Saul
pulls Carrie to her and calms him down.
Martha tells Quinn that they have to pull
the Marine back because the ISI may be
coming in through the tunnels.
Quinn calls the Marines and tells
Martha to lock herself in the vault. The
Marine reports that they were hit by rockets but reports that Carrie and Saul are
okay. Quinn pulls the Marines back and
the guy says they’re pulling back now.
But then they’re fired upon as they try to
leave. Saul pulls Carrie out of the line of fire and she calls Aasar and asks him to send a platoon
to help.
Tasneem tells him to hold the call for 10 minutes and says it’s time they get a dose of their
own medicine. He reminds her that Haqqani is a terrorist who has killed her soldiers. Tasneem
says that’s because he insists the enemy is his friend and helps the Americans. She tells him to
wait 10 minutes. Lockhart gets a sit-rep and he says Martha is locked down.
Lockhart briefs everyone on level two lock down and they start shredding and incinerating
files. Lockhart asks what he can do and a guy hands him a book that has all of the local intel
and contacts they built. The guy tells him they have to get it to the vault because there is no
backup. Haqqani and his men are in the Embassy and begin gunning people down.
Lockhart makes it out of the first room. Quinn and a Marine are down in the basement near
the tunnels. They hear men speaking Pashto and ducks down just before they’re seen. Quinn

calls Hensley but he’s dead. Quinn curses when he gets no answer. The peek at the men nearby
who then walk off. He and the young Marine continue sneaking about and duck out of the way
again.
They are directly behind the squad of men and then the Marine spots another man further
away for a smoke. Haqqani tears apart the ops room. He has several people lined up on their
knees — a few men and a woman. Fara is among them. Haqqani tells her to stand up. She does.
He asks her who has the list and she asks what list. He says the list of traitors that help them
kill his men and women.
She looks him in the eye and he asks if she’s a Muslim. She says yes and he asks if her
family knows she’s there helping them kill Muslims. She looks him hard in the eye and says they
know. He says if she won’t tell him where to find the list, this man will. He gestures to the young
guy next to her who is near tears. Haqqani radios down to the men in the basement and Quinn
listens in.
Quinn says they are headed for the Embassy vault because they are after Lockhart and the
list. They take aim at the men and fire off a bunch of shots. Looks like they took out all the
basement d-bags. Quinn says that’s good and tells the guy to get a radio. On the street, a Marine
tells Saul and Carrie that the sniper is still on them. He asks Saul to lay down suppressive fire
to help.
He hands the gun to Carrie and tells her to do it. Carrie asks why Haqqani would do this and
Saul says it may not be him or there may be something more. Saul spots for Carrie who takes
shots. She misses and then keeps firing and she says Aasar should be here by there. In the vault,
Martha calls Bunny for assistance. She says to get them some help.
They watch on the cameras as Haqqani comes to the vault and demands they open the door.
They have all the analysts on their knees where they can see them. Haqqani says he knows
they’re in there. They shoot one in the head. He says again to open it. Martha uses the speaker
to tell Haqqani that the Pakistan Armed Forces are on the way and she says the door won’t open
until she gets an all clear from DC.
He says to send out Lockhart. She says he’s not there. He says she’s lying and shoots another.
He says to send out the materials he wants. Martha says he can execute them all and there’s not
a damned thing she can do. Haqqani pulls out a knife and hauls Fara in front of the camera. He
says he’ll kill her there. Lockhart tells him to stop and says he’s coming out.
Martha says if they open it, he’ll kill them all anyway. Lockhart says he’s going to cut her head
off. Lockhart tries to open it but it won’t open. He tells Haqqani it’s on a countdown. Haqqani
says he’s playing games but he says he’s not. Quinn and the Marine show up and put their cell
phone around the corner to see what’s going on.
Quinn sees Fara and he and the Marine talk strategy. He says he thinks they will run. The
timer runs out and Lockhart opens the door and closes it behind him. He has the book. Quinn
curses. Lockhart hands it over and says to let Fara go. He stabs her and says to kill them all.
Quinn and the Marine turn the corner and open fire. Haqqani takes a hit but keeps going.
They swap fire with two guys left with an automatic weapon. One goes down and an analyst
grabs a handgun and takes out the other. Lockhart looks unarmed. Quinn and the Marine take
off after Haqqani and the few survivors. Haqqani’s guy sets a charge that goes off right before
Quinn and the Marine get there and it blocks the tunnel and keeps them from pursuing.
Quinn curses loudly. He comes back upstairs and finds an analyst holding Fara’s bloody
body. Carrie and Saul hear horns honking as the support finally shows up. Carrie looks around
at all the dead marines. They get a ride back to the Embassy. There are people out in the streets
in front of the Embassy barring the way and shooting cell phone video. Carrie stares in shock.
Saul looks at the Isis flag (or whatever it is) hanging from the balcony of the Embassy and says
— my God.
Four hours later, the news updates the world about the attack on the embassy that killed
40 Americans. The reporter says the Taliban says it was retaliation for drone strikes. Martha
watches the news with disgust — Lockhart sits with her. The phone starts to ring. Lockhart tells
her to get it. She does and is placed on hold for the President. Carrie sits on the steps with Max
and they stare at Fara’s body.
Max tells Carrie she’s mean and that all Fara wanted was her approval and all Carrie gave her
was a hard time. Carrie tells him she was training her but he says she could have said something
138
Homeland Episode Guide
nice to her just once and that it would have meant a lot. She says she wishes she had. Max says
she was doing okay and Carrie tells him that Fara was much more than okay.
Lockhart comes to get Carrie and she follows him. He tells her he just got off with the White
House and says they are pulling out of Pakistan. She says she’s not surprised and says it was
clearly state sponsored. He says they’re being evacuated first thing but she says she has to stay
and help pull out their assets. He says no and say the President doesn’t want her representing
their interests.
Lockhart says it’s his fault and he never should have given over the list. Carrie says it was a
tough call and she’s not sure what she would have done and he thanks her for saying that. He
say they are pulling out at 6:30. Dennis is back in lock up when Martha comes down. She asks
what he wanted to see her about. He says he heard they were leaving tomorrow.
He asks what happens then and she says he’ll be taken into custody and charged with treason.
He tells her he’s sorry and she tells him 36 people died today. She asks what she’s doing there
and asks what he wants. He asks for her belt. She says she will do no such thing. He says it will
spare her a lot of heart ache and she says it will spare him.
He says it’s better for Toby. She says he’d want his father alive and he says not locked up in
a super max prison as a traitor. He tells her he deserves to die but she says it’s not happening.
He says it could save her career. He says everyone at State knows how valuable she is and says
if he dies, the worst can be swept under the rug. She asks if he’s serious and he says it’s the one
good thing he can do now.
She is crying and says she doesn’t know what to say. He says not to say anything just to let it
happen. He says his life is ruined but hers doesn’t have to be. He says she knows he’s right. She
goes to unbuckle her belt then says she can’t. She says it can’t be her belt. He tells her that his
is in the locker and points to where it is. He tells her to go get it.
She walks over to the locker and pulls out his belt. He tells her to bring it to him. She looks at
it and then at him. He tells her please to let him do this one last thing for his family. She throws
it on the floor just outside the cell at Dennis’ feet. He reaches down to get it and calls to her but
she’s already gone and out in the hall walking away.
Quinn says he put a bullet in Haqqani and he needs medical attention. He wants to go after
him now where Saul was held. Saul says he saw nothing but Quinn makes him answer a barrage
of questions. Saul doesn’t know if it was a house or an apartment. Quinn starts asking about
the kid with the bomb vest then. Quinn asks about the phones and that Haqqani switched them
out.
Saul says they switched them every morning like clockwork. Quinn asks what type of phone
it was and says he had the phone in his hand because he called Carrie on it. Quinn screams at
Saul to nut up and answer him. Carrie comes in and asks Quinn to give him a break. Quinn tells
her they can find Haqqani but she says they’re pulling out.
Quinn says they can’t hand Haqqani Afghanistan on a platter. She says they’re going and this
time they’re right. Quinn says it’s important and Carrie says he’ll die trying to do this and she
won’t let him. She tells him to pack his things and be on the first flight out and tells him it’s a
direct order. Carrie goes in to talk to Saul and says she and Quinn were just having a difference
of opinion.
She asks if he’s okay and he says not even close. He says he made a fool of his time as CIA
chief and that people are dead because of him. Carrie says it was Haqqani’s plan all along to
attack the Embassy. She says him faking his death and killing Sandy in the street was all part
of it. Quinn goes down to ask which bodies are the Talibs.
The guy asks if he’s authorized to be down there and Quinn says he has to take some photos
to try and ID these motherf—ers. He lets him. Quinn snaps some photos while casually searching
their pockets for phones. He finds one and then moves on to another body. Martha sits in her
office like she’s on tenterhooks. She sits back and sighs as she waits.
Carrie calls Fara’s dad. She tells him what happened. Saul is in the shower washing off this
and all his other ordeals. We see bruises all over him as he lets the hot water wash it all away.
Quinn and Parvez leave the Embassy cursing their so-called allies who showed up too late,
intentionally, to help them and are now charged with keeping them ”safe.”
They head out and Parvez says they are right on schedule as they see a vehicle pull out to
follow them. He thanks Parvez and tells him not a word to Carrie. The vehicle tailing them pulls
139
Homeland Episode Guide
up in front of them. Quinn gets out and says he’ll see him state side. The follow car pull sup and
a few guys get out to go after Quinn who steps into a busy market.
He ducks stall to stall. They struggle to keep up. Quinn buys a robe then starts a fire but
overpays the shop keeper enough to make up for it. The fire pulls in a crowd and Quinn gets
away. He hops in the car that was following him, puts a gun to the guy’s head and tells him to
f-ing drive. The man brings him to a garage and he asks where Haqqani is. He says he doesn’t
know and Quinn knocks him down.
He takes a phone from him — the same make as the one the Talibs that hit the Embassy had.
Next morning, Carrie tells Lockhart that Quinn is not on the grounds and is in a volatile state.
She asks for five days to bring him in. She says they can’t live Quinn in the cold because he
saved so many lives. Lockhart asks when this will end.
She says five days and he tells her she’ll be without official cover. Lockhart comes and tells
them they’re leaving Quinn. Martha plays dumb and asks where Dennis is. She’s told he was
already brought up and is in the lead SUV. She goes to look in the SUV at him. She glares in
disgust because he was too much a coward to take his life and save his family.
Carrie tells Saul she’s staying to get Quinn out. He says there’s a point where she’s no longer
responsible. She says she’s not there yet. Saul says the President activated the fleet and it could
get ugly. He says he doesn’t want to leave without her but she says she’ll be on his heels. He
tells her to be careful, hugs her and gets in his car. The convoy pulls out for the airfield. Carrie
watches them all leave.

Carrie puts her life on the line to get her team out of Pakistan.
A large banner of Haqqani hangs as Aasar
and Carrie talk. He tells her he doesn’t
want the people who attacked the Embassy running Pakistan but can’t do anything about it. He tells her to get on
the plane and go and she says she can’t
go without Quinn. He says his superiors have issued a kill order on Quinn
because they know he’s an assassin. He
asks if Quinn is going after Haqqani and
she says she doesn’t know then says yes.
He tells her to call him off and she says
she can’t because he’s out on his own.
She says if he can help her find Quinn,
she will get him on a transport out of
Pakistan. She says she just wants to get
Quinn home and asks Aasar to trust her.
Next day, she’s in a car and pulls up to the Embassy gates. She gets impatient waiting on them
to check the car and steps out and goes in on foot. We see buses of American personnel being loaded along with their luggage. They’re shutting down the Embassy. Carrie goes through
security then heads upstairs.
She finds staffers packing everything up in the ops center. Max asks where she’s been and
says he had to cover for her. Chase and Barbara are still there too. He has papers for her to sign.
He says he’s almost got everything up and running. Chase says he thought they were shutting
down and she says soon. She says they have things to do to shut down — it’s called the Failure
Protocol. She says all she cares about is getting them all home safely including Quinn.
She says Quinn is out looking for Haqqani to try and right this wrong. She says they need to
bring him in but Max asks what if Quinn can do it. She tells him that’s not their goal — they just
want him back. We see Quinn on the street. He wraps rags around his hands so he can scale
a security fence. He goes over it and then enters a house. He shuts the door softly. He puts his
hand over a woman’s mouth and wakes her.
141
Homeland Episode Guide
She tells him everyone is looking for him — ISI and the Americans — and his name is on the
watch list. She says they’re shutting down the Embassy. She asks if he’s going home and he says
no. He says he can’t let it go that they put a Taliban flag up at the Embassy. He asks her to help
him run down the cell phone numbers and she says she can have a tech guy at her Embassy run
them down. He tells her to hurry. She tells him to take a shower and that there are still some of
his clothes in the drawer.
Max goes into an office and unlocks the safe. He pulls out cash and puts it in a bag. Carrie
comes in then and asks what he has. She asks what he has — he says nothing — but she
demands to see. She sees the cash and says she knows it isn’t for him since it’s Pakistani. She
also finds a passport for Quinn and asks where he is. He says he doesn’t know. He says Fara
was a financial analyst and Carrie brought her to this f-ing place. She asks what he wants her
to do and he says to bring her back.
She says she can’t and he says — then get Haqqani. She says she can’t. He says she’s just
not willing but she says she can’t lose anyone else. She says to tell her where Quinn is unless
he wants him dead too. Quinn finishes his shower at his ex’s place and hears a pounding on the
door. She’s still lurking outside the door as his ex arrives. She says she knew Quinn but hasn’t
heard from him in months. She asks her to give him a message if she sees him.
Carrie says he’s missing and asks to leave her contact information. The woman say there’s no
point but then relents and tells her to write it down. She lets her in the apartment. Carrie sees
water on the floor from where Quinn was lurking and Carrie writes something down. The woman
tells Carrie she won’t see Quinn and if Carrie does, to tell him to f- himself and says he’ll know
why. Carrie leaves. The woman tells Quinn the numbers he gave were already dead.
She says they ran the whole series of numbers and then he sees on the last page where
Haqqani is hiding. She says it’s a secure apartment and he’ll never get in. He says he needs her
car. She hands over her keys. He leaves and finds Carrie leaning on her car. She tells him there’s
a kill order out on him and says he’s on a suicide mission. She sees the look on his face and asks
if he knows where Haqqani is. She says he can’t do it and he says it’s not up to her.
He tells her he has never been so convinced of what he needs to do right now. He says if she’s
lost her nerve that’s fine, but she needs to get out of his way. She says they lost. Some men come
in then to take Quinn away with her. He attacks one of the men and shoots one in the leg. He
disarms them both and tells Carrie that for once in her life she needs to listen. He walks out of
the garage. Carrie and the other guy bring the wounded one to get his leg treated.
She walks out into the hall and sees Max. She says she found and lost Quinn again. Max
says her sister keeps calling and says she has to talk to her. Max tells her she really needs to
call her. Quinn spies on the building that he believes Haqqani is in. He makes notes on the print
out his ex gave him and then watches again through a zoom lens. He checks out all the men in
traditional garb walking around. Then he goes down into the street and clicks some photos with
his phone while not appearing to do so.
Carrie video calls her sister. She tells her that their dad died last night. She says he went to
sleep and never woke up. She says they told her it was a massive stroke. She tells her that he
said prayers with the girls last night and says it was like he knew something was coming. Carrie
says she needs a minute. Her sister says there’s nothing she could have done even if she was
there and not worry about that. Carrie is stunned and trying to keep control. Carrie asks if she
can call her back and ends the call.
Carrie comes back into the ops room and Max asks if she called her sister. She says yes and
he tells her he’s sorry about her dad. She asks Max if the German woman that Quinn was with...
then she has to stop because she’s crying. Max goes to her and holds her while she cries. Quinn
is working on something with a soldering iron when his ex comes in and says Carrie called and
sounded upset. He says she’s just upset she didn’t get her way but she says she doesn’t think
that’s what it is.
She looks at what Quinn is assembling and says it’s pretty big. He says it has to be. She asks
how he’ll get it to Haqqani and he says he doesn’t. He says Haqqani will come to it. Carrie calls
her sister back to talk some more. She says she thought their dad would live forever. Carrie asks
how she is and she says she’s barely hanging in. Carrie asks for a favor. She asks if she can see
Franny. She goes to get Carrie’s daughter. Maggie comes in with the baby and puts her in front
of the screen.
Carrie is surprised at how big she’s gotten. She cries when she sees her. Later, Lockhart calls
142
Homeland Episode Guide
Carrie and tells her he’s sorry about her father. She thanks him. He asks if there’s anything he
can do but she says the memorial service is in 10 days and says her sister is handling it all. He
asks about Quinn and she says he shot one of their PMCs but it was just in the leg. She says the
guy will be fine. Lockhart asks if there’s something going on he should know about.
She says not that she knows of and asks why. He says they’re shopping for his replacement
as CIA chief and says there have been a bunch of security meetings that he wasn’t invited to.
She says she hasn’t heard anything but agrees to let him know if she does. She asks him to tell
her if he hears anything on Quinn and he agrees as well. They end the call.
At the hospital, Kiran finds an envelope of photos that was left for her. They are of Aayan’s
murder and there’s a stickie note asking her to come to room 37. She asks the nurse if she saw
who left the envelope but she says no. Kiran goes down the hall to the room and finds Quinn
waiting for her. He tells her she doesn’t need to be afraid and asks her to close the door. He asks
if she knows Haqqani and she says it’s his uncle. She asks if he wants her to believe his uncle
killed him and he says it’s true.
He tells her it’s one frame from a video and says she can see the whole thing if she wants
and holds to a flash drive. She sobs then asks who he is. He tells her Haqqani killed a lot of his
friends too. She asks why he’s showing this to her and he says Haqqani is still in Islamabad and
needs to pay for this. He asks for her help. She comes in the room and closes the door. Carrie
shows up to the German’s place and asks to talk to her.
She asks the woman if she’s told her Embassy about her involvement in an off-book assassination plot. She lets Carrie into her apartment and they sit down to chat. Carrie tells her this
is suicide for Quinn and the woman says he doesn’t see it that way. She asks the woman if she
and her VW are all Quinn has backing her up. Carrie says a month ago Quinn wanted out and
the woman says he also said that six months ago, a year ago then back in 2008. She says he’ll
never get out.
She says sometimes he decides to retire then goes back to it because it’s what he’s good at it.
Carrie asks the woman how he’s going to do it and she says she doesn’t know. There’s a knock
at the door and Carrie says it’s for her then goes to answer. Carrie had her car searched and
accuses her of helping Quinn build a bomb. She asks where Quinn is and the woman says she
doesn’t know. She tells Carrie thought Quinn thought she’d have more faith in him than this.
She tells Carrie to leave.
Quinn works on his bomb some more. He puts on some rubber gloves and cuts into the C4
packets. He begins rolling and molding the explosive into a long thin shape. He tapes it up in
thin brown paper carefully. He puts a wire into one end of it gently then loads the long thin roll
into a metal cylinder. He looks at a photo of Aayan’s face as he works. He gets it all loaded in
then sets the photo of Aayan on it and tapes it to the photo. Looks like he’s made a sign bomb
with Haqqani’s nephew’s photo on it.
Quinn takes it and leaves. Max calls Carrie and tells her that the drone footage of Haqqani
killing Aayan has been leaked on the internet. They read her the translation saying Haqqani is
killing innocent Pakistanis. They tell her it was sent from the medical school where Aayan went
to school. She says it’s Quinn. They tell her there’s a call for a protest at a certain address where
Haqqani is supposed to be. Sure enough there’s a large student protest screaming Aayan’s name.
Tasreem meets with Aasar and the others on how to deal with this. They agree they have to
secure the area before moving Haqqani but can’t let it look like a government crack down. The
meeting breaks up and Tasreem asks about Aasar. She says she’s going to hold him personally
responsible if anything happens to Haqqani. He tells her he’s not taking any chances and says
he has a bunch of men down there in uniform and in plain clothes.
Quinn is part of the protest waving his bomb sign around. He marches down the street with
the other protestors. Carrie is trying to get there but they are stuck in traffic four blocks away.
She puts on her head scarf and gets out of the car to proceed on foot. She grabs a frock from a
vendor to cover up her Western clothes then goes on. Quinn is being jostled by the crowd and
goes down he shoves the bomb pole down into a grate outside the place Haqqani is staying at.
He walks by and tells Kiran it’s time to go. Quinn walks back through the crowd. The protest
turns ugly as people start throwing fruit at the police and they start using anti-riot tactics on the
crowd. Some of the protestors start to run off. Some Haqqani supporters walk down the other
street and approach the crowd — the government hired them as counter-protestors. Carrie sees
Aasar up on a jeep overseeing the action of his forces.
143
Homeland Episode Guide
Quinn climbs up a building and onto a roof. We see many people stepping on the grid where
Quinn stashed the bomb. From his observation point, Quinn pulls things out of his bag and
prepares to detonate. Carrie has a sign and is in the protest crowd looking around for Quinn. He
watches through his scope and sees them getting ready to move Haqqani to a safer place. Carrie
is very close to the bomb site. Haqqani is loaded into a vehicle to leave.
The gate opens and armed men move closer to block the protestors from the vehicles coming
out. Carrie’s head scarf falls off and Quinn realizes she’s standing almost on top of his bomb. He
calls her and tells her to get the f- out of there. She says if the bomb goes off, they’ll know it’s
him. She tells him there are hundreds of soldiers and he’s completely surrounded. She tells him
she can’t lose him and he tells her she has no right. He’s ready to detonate but she’s standing
too close to the bomb.
He lets the vehicle roll off without detonating it. He curses her. Haqqani stands up out of his
vehicle and looks around. Carrie watches him. He holds up his hands as people chant his name.
Carrie thinks about Aayan’s murder and she pulls her gun. Aasar is there too and heads towards
her. She cocks her gun as she moves along with the crowd near his car. His name is chanted
over and over. She raises her hand to shoot and Aasar grabs her.
He tells her to look and see who’s in the car with Haqqani. It looks like Dar Adal! WTF? Is
Haqqani a CIA asset now?
At the hospital, Kiran finds an envelope of photos that was left for her. They are of Aayan’s

Back in the States, Carrie and Saul investigate what she saw in Islamabad.
Carrie looks at an accumulation of her
dad’s stuff. His shoes, clothes, his chess
set and matchbox collection. Maggie asks
her how bad it was over there and Carrie says it was horrible. She asks if she’s
taking her meds and Carrie says she is
and you can’t blame it on that. Maggie
asks what she’s talking about then the
doorbell rings. She looks out the window
and sees a black SUV outside her house.
She goes down to answer it and it’s Dar.
He asks if he can come in but she says
Franny is sleeping and steps outside. He
offers condolences on the loss of her dad.
He asks to talk.
He wants to know where Quinn is and
she says she doesn’t know and that he
may be back in Islamabad hunting Haqqani. He says Haqqani is under the protection of the
Pakistan Armed Forces. He says they have to get through the Congressional hearings before they
do anything else. He asks her to let him know when she hears from Quinn. She says if she hears
from him, she’ll let him know.
Tasreem is on the TV making a statement about how the US has interfered so horribly in
Pakistan. Saul watches the broadcast. She says no state can accept these dictates and says it’s
good riddance if the US wants to break off with them. Mira comes in and tells Saul he’s going to
drive himself crazy. He’s worried about Haqqani releasing the video of him. He says he’s already
been fired and was sent a severance check.
He tells her he wants back in at the CIA to make this right. He says he has to get ready for
a meeting. Carrie is out with Franny at the park. She sits on a bench and is approached by a
man. He says he’s used to seeing Franny with Frank and asks where he’s been. He didn’t know
his friend dad. She asks if they were park friends and he says he was and she must be Carrie.
He says his name was Billy and that Frank talked about her a lot.
He says Frank was crazy about her and Franny and always said Carrie was coming back for
her daughter. He says Frank said she was made of strong stuff and would be there for Fran. She
147
Homeland Episode Guide
says he really shared with him and he says it looks like he was right. She thanks him for telling
him that and he asks about a service for her dad. She says it’s tomorrow. She sees a car with
Missouri tags in the driveway when she comes back.
The nanny takes Franny off her hands as she goes inside. She is surprised to see her mom
in the kitchen. She freaks and asks what this is. She tells her she has a lot of nerve and Carrie
reminds her she’s been gone 15 years. She asks to meet Franny and Carrie says too bad. She
says she made a hard decision a long time ago and is sorry for it. Carrie says — too little, too
late. She asks if she should go. Maggie doesn’t want their mom to go but Carrie tells her to go.
She slams out and Maggie goes to run after her. Carrie says — fuck her — but Maggie says
she doesn’t speak for both of them. Their mom drives off and Maggie tells her — good going, now
we won’t see her for another 15 years. Carrie says — works for me. Saul waits for his meeting
with Joe. He invites Saul in and says with Lockhart on the ropes, he’d like to bring him in but if
the video is released, would derail any confirmation hearings.
Saul asks if he knows why Haqqani hasn’t released it. Joe says he doesn’t but has some
questions for him. Carrie tells Maggie she thought she hated their mom and Maggie says she
thought she did, but is the only mom they have. Carrie says — she walked out on us, what kind
of person does that. Maggie reminds her that she walked out on her daughter but Carrie says
she was always coming back and stayed in touch.
Carrie says she can’t deal with their mom after the mind f- of Islamabad and losing their dad.
Carrie asks if their mom left a number but she says Carrie ran her out too fast. Carrie speaks
at her dad’s service the next day about his quirks, habits and favorite things. She tears up and
says he was a man of extremes who loved she and Maggie like crazy. She says they all know he
had demons but lived with them and taught her how to live with them.
We see Saul and Mira in the pews. She says Frank loved her daughter with that same crazy
love and helped with her. She says Franny won’t remember but tells her dad that she’ll remember
for her. She steps down. She sits and takes her daughter in her arms and she and her sister
comfort each other. Carrie gets hugs outside from fellow mourners. In the distance, she sees
Quinn. She excuses herself and goes to him.
She tells him thank God and takes him in her arms. He tells her hey and hugs her back. She
says she was worried about him. He asks if she’s okay and she says she is. She asks how he
got out and he says German Intelligence helped him — his ex-GF Astrid. He says he hung back
a while hoping for another shot at him. She says she had a shot at Haqqani but Aasar stopped
her. He says it’s all over now and she says — hopefully. She tells him Dar is looking for him.
He asks why and she says he didn’t say but that Quinn should stay away from that motherf&**er. At the house, Maggie asks who Quinn is and Carrie says he’s a work buddy. He’s playing
with Franny and Maggie comments that she seems to like Quinn. Carrie pulls Saul outside for a
chat. He tells her Joe doesn’t think there’s any US deal with Haqqani. He says he didn’t tell Joe
about Dar. She says it was definitely Dar.
Quinn comes out with a bottle of Irish whiskey and the three of them share drinks. She says
she’s learned a lot about her dad and says he was arrested several times protesting. Saul says
that he knew it and says he got hundreds of letters routed that her dad wrote George requesting
she be reassigned away from Baghdad. Lockhart shows up and says he would have been there
earlier but that he was meeting with lawyers. He has a lasagne his wife made and offers his
condolences.
He goes to leave but the three invite him to stay and have a drink. Quinn pours him a whiskey
and they toast. Later, Quinn helps them do dishes and clean up. Carrie goes to check on Franny
and Maggie asks Quinn if he was in Pakistan with her. She says she’s never seen her sister so
thrown and he says a lot went wrong there. Carrie finds Franny awake and giggly. She tucks her
blanket around her and goes downstairs.
Maggie asks if she’s okay and she tells Maggie she’ll be right back and heads outside with
Quinn. Maggie watches them go. She tells Quinn that Franny took a shine to him and says he’s
been quiet. He says he’s been thinking about all this — being home, away from all that. She says
a normal life and he says it feels good to laugh. She says tonight was fun and asks if that’s awful.
He says it’s not and she says it was sad but fun.
They stare at each other and then they both go for the kiss. He presses up against her and
then she stops it and steps away. She tells him she’ll just fuck it up but he says she won’t. She
says she does and know how it goes — it ends badly. He says — until it doesn’t. He tells her he’s
148
Homeland Episode Guide
seen her at her worst and she says he should be heading for the hills. He says he doesn’t want a
black hole like Islamabad in his life. He says he wants out but has learned he can’t stay out on
his own.
She says she hasn’t been helpful in that regard. He says she could be and that they could
get out together. She smiles a little and he tells her to think about it. He touches her face and
she touches his hand there. He gets in his truck and heads out. She watches him go then heads
back inside the house. At three a.m., she lies awake. She gets up and goes into her dad’s room.
She opens a drawer and pulls out a box. There’s a rose inside and a photo from his wedding day.
She leafs through some photos from the box of her parents when they were younger. Next
morning, she tells Maggie she’s going to find their mom. She says she wants their mom to look
her in the eye and explain herself. She offers to keep Franny but Carrie says she doesn’t want to
leave her daughter again. Maggie says babies and road trips are a bad mix. Carrie relents and
hands her daughter over to her sister. Maggie tells Franny to say bye bye and waves the baby’s
hand at her.
Quinn is back at his apartment when one of his buddy’s approaches him and says Group
has been looking for him. They found three high value IS targets in Aleppo. He says it’s a small
window and Quinn says he’s out. He tells him he’s really out for good and isn’t going. The guy
tells him to show up tomorrow and Quinn says forget it.
He tells Quinn that they are 20% less likely to pull this off without him and lives will be lost.
Quinn says he’s sorry and he hands him a stack of letters and says it’s his job to deliver them
if some of them don’t make it back. He tells Quinn happy holidays and leaves. Carrie drives to
Missouri to locate their mom. She lands in a small town and then pulls up in front of a nice old
fashioned two story Southern home.
She knocks on the door and looks around. A young guy comes to the door and she says she’s
looking for Ellen. He says she’s at work and he asks who she is. She says she’s a friend and can
come back. He has to leave as well but tells her what school her mom works at. She drives a little
bit away then sighs. She sees the teenager riding away on a bike and then goes to the school
where her mom teaches.
She asks about the boy and her mom says that’s her half-brother Tim. Carrie asks if she left
her children to go and have more children. She asks if Carrie can meet her at her house after
school. Carrie agrees. Dar meets Saul at a diner to talk. Dar says he heard he met with Crocker
and Saul says it was just damage assessment. Dar says Lockhart’s resignation will be in next
week and says he can get Saul on the short list as his replacement.
Saul says he must be having a senior moment and then Dar hands him something. He says
it’s the video of him and Haqqani and he’s been assured that’s the only copy and that it won’t be
released even if it’s not. Saul asks what Dar did to get this and he says he reached out to Haqqani
and offered to take him off the kill list as long as he didn’t harbor terrorists in Afghanistan. Saul
says he his the terrorist. Dar reminds him that Menachim Begim killed British citizens before
taking over as Prime Minister.
Saul says this sounds like sedition. Dar says Haqqani will be in Kabul by Christmas and Saul
asks why he’d keep his word. He says Haqqani handing over the tape was a gesture of good faith.
Dar asks him to come back and lead them. He says the agency is waiting on Saul with open
arms. Carrie lies on a bed in her hotel room when her phone rings. It’s Quinn. He says he heard
a rumor she was in Missouri.
She says she chased her mom down and says she should have called him. She asks how he
is but he says he’s wondering about her. He offers to come to Missouri but she says no. She says
she’s in the middle of something and tells him she has a brother she never knew about. She says
she can’t think about anything else right now. He tells her if it’s a no to him, just say it. She says
it’s not. She says she’s on a crazy road trip like her dad used to take.
She says she’s no good for him or anyone else. He asks if that’s a no and she asks him not to
pressure her. She says she’ll be back in a few days and they can talk then. They ring off. She’s
waiting for her mom when she gets home from school. She asks if Tim’s father is around and her
mom says he left before Tim was born. She asks how old he is and she says he’s 15.
Carrie asks why she didn’t just say she was pregnant and she says she couldn’t and that it’s
hard to explain. Carrie tells her to try. She says she wasn’t very good at being married to her dad
or anyone. Carrie says she doesn’t get it. Her mom invites her inside. She asks if her dad knew
149
Homeland Episode Guide
she was pregnant and she says he didn’t know about Tim’s father but knew she was sleeping
around.
Carrie says her dad never said anything and her mom says he was loyal. She says he’d forgive
her then she would do it again until it ruined them. She says her dad always said she left because
he was impossible. Her mom says he wasn’t easy and could be a circus but says she was the
one that broke it apart. She says she got pregnant and couldn’t face what she’s done. She tells
Carrie not to blame her dad.
Carrie says she doesn’t and tells her mom she left just when she needed her. She says in her
first year of college she got sick like dad and was institutionalized. She says she just wanted her
mom but she never called or even sent a letter. Her mom says she had hurt so many people that
she just had to stop and do one right thing — focus on Tim. She says that’s what she did. Carrie
tells her she has to go.
Her mom asks if she’s okay and Carrie says she thought being with bipolar meant you couldn’t
be with someone for the long haul because of her parents. Her mom tells her not to believe that
and says it is possible. Carrie gets back to her hotel and starts packing in a fury. She shoves
things in her bag and then grabs her phone and calls Quinn but gets a message that the number
is no longer in service.
She calls again and gets the same message. She sends a text instead. She calls Dar and
gets voice mail. She leaves a message asking simply where Quinn is. We see Quinn in a hangar
meeting the crew for the mission. He asks who the new guy is and his buddy calls out Dale. The
guy walks over and Quinn tells him he’s not going and that Quinn is going in his place. He hands
him the stack of letters and on top, we see one for Carrie.
He goes to lock and load his equipment with the others. Carrie gets back to town and heads
directly to Dar’s house. She rings the bell twice impatiently. He answers and she asks why he
didn’t call back. She asks where he is and he tells her they can’t talk out there. She comes inside.
He says he’s likely in Syria by now and she says she needs to talk to him. He says they went dark
an hour ago and they can’t reach them. He says the mission is open ended and are responsible
for their own extraction out of Iraq.
She says again that she has to talk to him and he says no. She tells him she saw him with
Haqqani in Islamabad. He asks what she’s playing at and she tells him to give her what she f-ing
wants. She threatens to go to the press. He tells her to talk to Saul before she does that. She
says Saul would spit in his face for making a deal after what Haqqani did at the Embassy.
He tells her to ask Saul herself and opens the door. She sees Saul on the back porch and is
shocked. She glares then stomps out without another word to either of them. She gets in her car
and takes off. She’s teary but drives on. She looks anguished.

Carrie is building a new life in Berlin, almost two years after the embassy attack in Islamabad. But her peace is threatened when a request
from her boss forces her back into the dangerous world she left behind.
The episode begins at a Catholic service in Germany with the minister offering communion. Carrie
is there and takes communion. She crosses herself
and steps back then goes to sit in a back pew. She
kneels and prays. Later, at a train station, a shady
guy gets off the train in Berlin carrying a satchel.
He goes to Club King George and goes inside. He’s
told to be on time that this is Germany. He goes
into the back where web cam models are doing sex
work.
He goes into the control room for his shift. He
tells the coworker his dad got onto him for being
late and the guy asks if he finished it and he hands
him a flash drive. They took a terrorist video and
added funny captions to make it look pervy. They
talk about where to post it and decide to put it on
a recruiting website. They make it the lead video of
a terrorist recruiting site. The computer beeps and
an alert pops up. At the CIA Berlin Station, they
see the video and ping it.
The two guys talk about the other person being
secretly in the site too. They each ping each other.
The one guy says it’s probably a government IP. The
CIA tech says the guy is just hanging outside the
firewall. He says they’re probably there in Germany and then says they’re trying to ping him too.
They need more computing power and shut down some of the web cam channels but the guy
says his dad will freak. The CIA people freak when the guy gets into their system. He tells them
to shut it down.

It’s too late, he’s stealing files and the German says it’s the CIA. He says he knows. He gets
1361 files. Carrie drive Frannie to school on her bike. It’s Frannie’s birthday. She drops her
off then heads to work as head of security at Düring. She meets Ambassador Jamil who leave
straight after. Otto tells her they have to go to Lebanon and says ISIS is regrouping and civilians
are in mass exodus. Otto wants to go to a refugee camp in Lebanon. Carrie says it’s a war zone
and they’re not equipped for this.
Otto says they have three days to prepare. Quinn is introduced by Dar Adal to a room of
important people and tells the group Quinn has been on the ground in Syria for two years. He
says he’s been in Al-Raqqah and says the approach is constant — air strikes against Assad and
the Islamic state. He says he’s been heading up special ops there for 28 months. They ask him
what the hell is going on over there. Saul is there too. Quinn says the program has been effective
and should be continued.
He says ISIL is growing and Assad is still in power. He asks Quinn if the strategy is working
and Quinn ask what strategy. Quinn says tell me what the strategy is and I’ll tell you if it’s
working. Then he says that’s the problem. The other side knows it’s there and says there’s a
revival of slavery, beheadings and says it’s in their f-ing book and they read it all the time. He
says they’re there to die for the Califate and live in a world without infidels. He says that’s been
their strategy since the 7th century.
One asks what he would do. He says 200k soldiers on the ground plus doctors and teachers.
He says he can’t do that and then Quinn says hit reset and pound the place into a parking lot,
otherwise he needs to get back. Quinn stands and walks out. Saul tells Dar that Quinn went off
book but it was good for them to hear the truth. Saul gets a text and curses. He says there was
a data breach in Berlin. He goes back into the room to grab his coat then rushes out. Dar stays
with the meeting.
Carrie is with Frannie at her birthday party. Her boyfriend Jonas is there and says Otto asked
again about the trip to Lebanon. She says it’s a bad idea then he goes to answer the doorbell.
Carrie’s journalist friend Laura shows up and asks to talk to her then says she was sent a CIA
email from a hacker about a backdoor German and US deal. She asks Carrie to look at it to see
if it’s legit. Carrie says she can’t look at it and keep her clearance and asks if Otto knows. Laura
says Otto sent her there.
Carrie says she could do damage by publishing it and Laura says backdoor government deals
like this are the problem. She leaves mad. Carrie tucks Frannie into bed and finds Jonas doing
paperwork. He says he’s sorry for letting Laura in and Carrie says this day started out well then
it was like her old life tried to come back for her. She says she doesn’t want to be in that world
and Jonas says don’t let it and says she doesn’t have to vet secret documents or go to Lebanon
if she doesn’t want to.
Carrie asks really and he holds her close. They kiss. Next day, Carrie is at the CIA station
in Berlin. She’s shown to the office of Allison Carr who greets her with a hug. She says she
wondered if they would run into each other. Carrie apologizes for not calling then congratulates
her on getting Berlin. Allison says they went through so much in Baghdad. Carrie tells her she’s
going to Lebanon with Otto Düring then asks what the real danger is that now. Allison tells her
a bit then says beyond that is classified.
Carrie tells her she thought it was best to make a clean break from the agency and says a lot
of people don’t get that. Allison asks what’s going on at the Düring Foundation and who her boss
has been meeting with and says they’ve been burned by that place more than once then asks
if Otto will disclose their transit sites in Poland. Carrie says she knows nothing and is shocked
when Allison says she needs to go because Saul is stopping by for a surprise visit and says she
can head out the back way.
Carrie leaves and goes down the stairs. She sees Saul getting out of the car and ducks back
into the stairway but then steps out to greet him. He says nothing and then says if he was mad
at her she wouldn’t have a clearance or a job. She says she didn’t tank his bid to be director of
the CIA again. He says she did and he gets that she needed to leave the CIA but says not to go to
the other side. He tells her that Düring does have some atoning to do since his family made an
illicit fortune in WW II.
Carrie says she’s just trying to do good work and Saul says she’s not and is being naı̈ve and
stupid, something she never was when she worked for him. He walks away. Carrie goes back to
work and tells Düring to postpone the trip or send someone else. She says she can’t make this
154
Homeland Episode Guide
safe for him and says no one can. She says she even went to the Berlin station and their strong
advice was not to go. Laura says they shouldn’t do anything if the CIA said no.
Laura say Carrie spent the last ten years killing people and needs to do something different.
Carrie says Saul is the European division chief and showed up the day after she got a hacked
document. Laura says that shows the document is legitimate and she’s publishing it. Otto says
the refugees will be out of food and medicine within a week and the ambassador came to him.
He says he’s going to write a check then ask six more wealthy people to write a check and they
will if he was there on the ground.
He says it may be stupid but it needs to happen and happen now. Saul reads a report about
the data breach. Allison sits while he looks through it. He sees it 1361 docs and he asks how
this happened. They tell him some cabling got left behind during a remodel. She tells Mills he
can step out of the meeting once he answers Saul’s questions. Saul says it looks like they got the
docs on the surveillance program with the Germans. She says so far none have been published
so it might be an intelligence service.
Then she says they went back to the site where the intruder came from and she shows him
the video and says it could be Anonymous or another hacktivist. She says it won’t stay secret
and they agree they have to meet with the Germans who won’t be happy.
Carrie puts on a head scarf and goes to a mosque to see the Imam. She says she’s from
the Düring Foundation and that they’ve donated money to the mosque. She waits. She is told
Sheik Hafiz will see her and taken to his office. He offers her refreshment and she accepts. They
sit and she says the Foundation needs his help. She says she needs to speak to the Hezbollah
commander who’s living underground in Berlin. She says she needs to talk to him about safe
passage.
The Imam says he doesn’t know the man and she says she knows he knows someone who
could get a message to Al Amin. He’s annoyed. Saul and Allison meet with the Germans to tell
them about the data breach. Saul tells them that this program was important and the problem
it addressed is getting worse. He says he thinks they should continue with the surveillance.
Saul says they will develop a contingency plan to deal with what could happen if the documents
surface.
The German says the program is over and trusting them is a mistake. The woman stays
behind for a moment longer as Saul says this program is more for German safety than US. The
woman says whatever they’re planning, don’t leave any tracks and says she can’t help them at
all anymore. Allison is furious and asks what’s wrong with these new Germans. Saul says they
used to fight like hell then he tells her he’ll see her back at the office. Saul walks down the street
with purpose.
He walks by Quinn in the city plaza of Berlin. Carrie is back at the church. She goes outside
and sees a woman with a headscarf lock her bike to Carrie’s. While she’s distracted, some guys
grab Carrie, bag her head and shove her into a van. She’s taken to a dark warehouse and the
bag is removed. She’s given a scarf and told to cover her hair. She does. The men stand guard
and she waits looking afraid. Quinn is outside a café playing Arabic music. He hops a fence and
goes around back.
He’s in an alley and climbs up the outside of a building and goes into an apartment. He looks
around and taps a desk top then checks and pops it open. Inside is electronics equipment and a
tube. Someone enters the apartment and he goes to hide. The guy sees the desk is open. Quinn
hits him hard with a pope and looks through the guy’s bag. It’s more bomb making stuff. He
rifles it while the guy is out cold. Carrie asks the man who approaches to take the ties off her
hands and says she’s not a threat.
The man says he was part of the team protecting Abu Nazir and knows how dangerous she
is. He says she hunts them and keeps them from their homeland. She says all that suffering is
one of the reasons she doesn’t work for the CIA anymore. He asks what she wants and says Otto
Düring wants to bring supplies to the camp but needs his invitations since Hezbollah runs it.
She says she’s risking disease and starvation. He says their strength is their suffering. She offers
money for security.
Al Amin tells her she killed his son in Beirut. He says he will fight them forever He walks away
and she begs him not to do this and says she has asked respectfully for safe passage and he’s
obliged to take her message to the council. She’s shoved back into the chair by the other men
after he leaves. Quinn uses the guy’s components to make a pipe bomb. He has the guy duck
155
Homeland Episode Guide
taped to a chair. He talks about the ingredients the man uses in his bombs. Quinn talks about
what the smell of it reminds him of.
He clicks the timer and says the man has two minutes to prepare himself for paradise. He
walks out. The time clicks down. Quinn goes out the front door. He crosses the street, the
apartment explodes and people scream. Laura reads her article to Jonas and he says there’s some
wisdom in waiting on the national security implications. She asks if Carrie has been working on
him. He hears a car squeal to a stop and sees Carrie thrown out of it. He hangs up on Laura who
gets mad and decides to post it.
Jonas asks if she’s okay. She says she is and just wants to go inside. Saul gave Quinn a key
to a PO Box and he opens it. Saul asks how it went and Quinn says the man is now a martyr in
paradise. He tells Quinn the Germans won’t support them anymore and if he’s caught, he’s out
of the agency. Saul says they can’t have any more contact and says the box will have money and
the next target. The next is a woman who recruits kids. Quinn says put the names in the box
and he’ll take care of whoever it is.
Carrie lies in bed with Jonas, Frannie sleeping between them. Her phone buzzes — no caller
ID. She answers it. Al Amin says Otto Düring is invited to the camp as their honored guest. He
hangs up on her. Carrie looks at Frannie and Jonas sleeping peacefully.

Carrie and Düring visit a refugee camp; Saul and Allison are at odds;
Quinn stays on mission.
The episode begins with Carrie in Lebanon with
Phillip Becker and Mike Brown. They drive to a
refugee camp where people are lining up to get inside. They pull to the gates and asks for Colonel
Haugen. Their car is checked for bombs and they’re
allowed inside and told where to park. They drive
through the set up of tents and trailers, park and
get out. Carrie looks around cautiously. Phillip
asks her about Hezbollah and she says they’ll contact her but she doesn’t know when. They go talk
to Haugen.
The colonel takes them inside his office trailer.
He says things are changing fast and today they
got 1000 people. Phillip says they need resources
and Otto will get them. Haugen asks why the journalists and Phillip says it will help raise awareness.
They ask about security and Phillip says Otto needs
to be seen in the camp but Haugen says it’s not
safe. A guy comes in and Carrie goes to step out
and Haugen asks if she wants the message out that
the foundation deals with Hezbollah.
Carrie sasses him back and she and Mike step
out and follow the guy. He walks them through a
shattered warehouse and Carrie has to reassure
Mike. They search Mike and Carrie and a woman searches her. Carrie warns her she has a
gun under her jacket. The woman takes it and hands it to a guard. They tell Mike that only
Carrie can go inside. She says it’s okay and goes. Inside, she greets a man and he says he speaks
better English than her Arabic.
The man says she’s CIA and she says she was but is a private citizen who the Council gave
safe passage to. The man says he’s seen no payment and she says it was sent to Al Amin’s
account. Carrie asks the man to please listen and asks for her backpack. She tells Waleed she
brought him $40k as well. He says they have a deal but then says the camp is overrun and it
gets worse every day. He says there’s all kind of scum and tells her to not stay longer than an
hour or he can’t guarantee Otto’s safety. She agrees.

A news program reports on the German intelligence cooperation with the CIA. They have Laura
Sutton on the show and call her a dissident American journalist. Laura says the document shows
the details of the arrangement between the two governments. Laura says this could be the tip of
the iceburg. Saul is watching with Allison who says there’s more and says BND had a team n
Laura since she came to Berlin and shows him pics of Allison with Carrie.
She says she doesn’t think Carrie is involved but they both work for Otto Düring. Laura tells
the guy she’s sure they’re searching her apartment and just hopes that they don’t let her cat out.
Laura has a safe in her apartment the intelligence people can’t break into. Laura says she moved
to Germany because of the privacy protections that Germany promises citizens and guests. The
German intelligence officer tells her cohort to bring Laura in. They ask her about the source of
the leak.
Laura says she doesn’t know but that person took a big risk to expose this and says she’s
honored that person reached out to her and says she will respect their trust no matter what.
The hackers watch and they talk about sending her the rest of the data. He says he can take the
rest of it to Laura in person so it won’t be intercepted. Korzy says they should get money from
this but his pal says information should be free. Fatima works on recruiting a German girl to do
some dirty work for her.
Fatima is the one Quinn is supposed to kill next. Fatima reminds her she saved her from
killing herself and says that was Allah and says he chose her for important work and she must
submit. The girl finally agrees and wipes away her tears. Quinn watches from nearby. Fatima
hugs her and they part ways. Quinn watches her walk on and keeps tabs on her. She goes into
a market and he loses her. Laura is outside the news station and she hails a cab.
She sees the hacker but then Hans, a German agent, grabs her and shoves her into an SUV.
She demands to know what the charge is and the hacker walks away. Carrie talks to Lothar who
says Otto arrives today and she says she’ll come see him soon. She finds Hank waiting in the
lobby and hugs him. He says it’s a small town. They step aside together and he says he didn’t
believe when he heard she was coming with Otto. He asks Carrie if she’s a Trojan horse at the
Foundation.
Carrie says it’s not like that at all. He says whatever then asks about her meeting with Waleed.
He asks how compromised his control of the camp is but she says she can’t be seen to help the
agency. He asks if she’s joking but she says she’s not and walks away. Carrie goes upstairs later
and finds a party in full swing. Otto gestures her over but she begs off. She goes outside on the
patio where it’s quiet. He offers her a drink and she says she’s 9 month sober tomorrow.
She says she would have liked to see the guest list first but he says he knows these people
and thought it was good to do business here too. He says Phillip told her they’re all set and she
says Hezbollah is cooperating but it’s unpredictable and says she was told just one hour. He
says that will be tight. Carrie give s him a look and he says one hour. Automatic gunfire sounds
nearby and she says it’s probably a wedding. He says of course but is shaken. He says she seems
comfortable there.
Carrie says hardly then says she was first here in 2004. She says there were truck bombs,
assassinations and other scary things. He asks if she was scared and she says no, it was more
like an adventure but she was different then. He asks how. She says she was younger and alone.
She says there was no one waiting for her back home. More gunshots fire. The German agent
Astrid speaks with Laura and shows her that they can hold her for 18 months as a security risk.
She tells Laura to give her the name of her source and she can go. Laura says journalists
protect their sources. Astrid asks if she has the other documents. She asks her if she knows
what’s at risk then says hundreds of German citizens went to Syria to engage in terrorism and
can come back and do worse here. She tells Laura she made it much more likely that this will
happen. Astrid talks about tight resources and Laura says they got caught breaking the law and
aren’t allow to spy on their citizens.
Saul and Allison watch and Allison says Laura would let the country burn to get a Pulitzer.
Saul says he talked to the BND and Herr Mohr too. He says the chancellery is furious. He says
they want a scalp then tells her it’s going to be her and she has 24 hours to leave the country.
Saul says the director refused to fight for her. Allison is furious. Carrie calls Jonas and he says
Frannie just fell asleep. She says not to wake her then says she’ll be home tomorrow.
She thanks him for watching Frannie and he says not to give it a second thought and they’re
having fun. He asks if she’s being careful. She says very and she’s hiding behind hunky ex158
Homeland Episode Guide
Special Forces guys. She says she misses him and he says the same. Quinn waits in a car. He
gets out as Fatima walks past. She greets Demet the German girl and asks if she’s seen Alya and
has her passport. She’s taking them to leave and then Alya shows up and says it was hard to get
away.
Fatima tells her she’s proud of her and loads them into a van. Quinn goes back to his car. The
van drives by and he pulls out too. Astrid talks to Jonas, Laura’s lawyer, and tells him they acted
within the law. Astrid says if she publishes any more documents, she will be on a plane back
to America immediately. Otto does his speech at the refugee camp and talks about the need for
food, medical care and shelter and says they will provide these things. Carrie watches the crowd
anxiously.
Otto talks about the need for education too. He says he has a check for $10 million to help.
He says this is just the start. Carrie stands by Mike and they both look tense. Otto then calls on
his peers to help as well and says when peace comes, these people can go home and rebuild their
home with pride, knowledge and skill. The speech ends and she tells Mike to get the vehicles
ready so they can go. Otto thanks Haugen and he steps down by Carrie who says the hour is up.
He says he needs 10 more minutes.
Carrie says no but he insists on time to talk to the press. Saul gets another update on issues
caused by the breach. Allison tells Saul that Astrid called to say Laura was released and they
have her under intense surveillance. They step into the conference room. Allison says moving
those Ukranian assets is risky and says she’s the best person to find assets to replace them. She
says she’s the best person to fix this but Saul says his hands are tied. She asks what would he
do if she was Carrie Matheson.
He says this and she says BS, he would be protecting her at all costs. Allison says Carrie
is gone and he should show some allegiance to those who stuck around to support him. Carrie
looks around nervously and Mike says they have to go. Carrie tells Otto it’s time to go right now.
A woman asks Otto to look at a boy who’s eight and has never been in school Mike alerts Carrie
to a guy in a dark jacket. Carrie sees the guy coming. Mike pulls a gun and Carrie pulls Otto
aside. Mike says to show his hands.
The guy grabs a woman and then shows he has a trigger in his hand. Carrie says to take him.
Mike shoots him and they see the guy has a bomb vest on. Carrie tells the driver to go. They
speed out and she tells Otto to stay down. Carrie looks around nervously and spots someone
moving then notices there are no people around. She tells them to stop. The driver doesn’t and
she slams her foot on the brakes. They barely miss getting blown up and the driver gets out and
runs. Carrie gets behind the wheel.
She does a u turn and busts through the gates of the camp. She drives them directly to the
plane and tells him to get on the plane. He says he needs to make some calls first but she says
get on the plane now. Carrie says she needs to get a sense of what happened here and he says
they just stayed too long. She says no, it was carefully planned and they were going to hit them
anyway. She says she has to stay and make sure this threat doesn’t follow them to Berlin. Otto
says he won’t forget she saved his life.
Carrie goes into the bathroom and tries to calm her panic. She’s crying. Carrie begs for God
to help her. Fatima stops the van and the girls get out. Quinn still follows. They hug Fatima and
she wishes them luck. He watches all this. The girls back in a van and Fatima goes into the
restroom. Quinn calls in the license plate of the van and says it’s got ISIL females. Fatima comes
out of the bathroom dressed differently and goes to another car. Quinn follows her.
He pulls down her face scarf and she says ”bitte” which is please in German. He shoots her
with a silenced pistol then takes a pic of her face. Allison calls Dar and he says taking one for
the team will help her career. She says it’s a huge security risk and she’s too valuable to sideline.
Dar says no one doubts her value but the Germans are demanding an important head. She says
to give them Saul but he says sorry. She says he can just kick Saul out of Berlin and he can do
his job from anywhere.
Allison says who would he rather have on the ground there — her or Saul? At the German
post office, Saul goes inside and makes his drop. Carrie comes back to the hotel and finds a man
in her hotel room. Bahruz says he has to give it back since El Amin gave his word to protect her
and they failed. He says Waleed betrayed them. He shows her the video of them beating Waleed.
He tells her to listen. She sees that they ask him why kill Otto when he was helping.
Waleed says it was Carrie that was the target, not Otto. Bahruz says they questioned him six

hours and says he was more afraid of whoever wants her dead than he was of dying. He says
Beirut is not safe for her anymore. Quinn goes to the post office and leaves the phone with the
proof and picks up the next assignment. He sees there’s numbers for him to look up. He has
today’s paper and works a cypher. He writes down the letters. The name is Matheson.

Jonas and Carrie revisit her past; Quinn stalks his prey.
The episode begins with Carrie looking
down at a sleeping Frannie. She tells
Jonas she doesn’t know if she can put her
on the plane tomorrow. He says to go with
her and Carrie says that will make her
just as unsafe. She says once Frannie is
back in the states, she can figure it out.
Jonas asks what if the guy in Lebanon
was lying but Carrie says he wasn’t. He
asks how she knows. They step out of her
daughter’s room. Jonas says she’s been
holed up for four days not saying anything and needs to talk to him.
Carrie says he was tortured and finally
admitted she was the target but was too
scared to say who Saul paid him. Jonas asks how that makes it credible. She says he had two
secrets. One he could tell and one he was willing to die for then says he did die for it and was shot
in the face. Jonas curses and she says he asked for the truth. A woman hands her son some
lunch money and he heads off with his friends. Someone is watching from nearby. It’s Quinn
watching from a car.
Saul is there to see Otto who says he rarely gets visits from CIA officers. Saul says it’s rare
that German industrialists are the targets of assassination. He says he’s more of a philanthropist.
Saul asks who might want to kill him in Lebanon then asks if it might have to do with Carrie
meeting with Hezbollah. Otto says to ask her and Saul says he can’t find her. Then Saul says
it’s not the first time he’s collaborated with the wrong side of history. Otto says it’s known his
grandfather was a Nazi.
He says he has spent years atoning and Saul asks about him giving to Muslim causes. Otto
says they account for every penny then Saul asks if he considers Hezbollah a terror organization.
Otto says he’s anti-terrorism but says legitimate rebellion is different. Otto says nothing has
made the world more dangerous in the last 15 years than US foreign policy. He says Americans
are great humanitarians when someone else is on trial. Saul says he wants to know where Carrie
is.
161
Homeland Episode Guide
Otto says he doesn’t track her movements and thinks she’s taking some time off after what
happened. Saul says he wants to talk to her and Otto reminds him that Carrie doesn’t work
for Saul anymore and says he knows that must be frustrating since she’s a remarkable person.
Carrie studies a huge collage of photos she’s put up at the house she’s at — all of likely terror
suspects and people who could be after her. Frannie comes out of her room and Jonas has her
packed to go.
They drive to a small airport and load Frannie onto a plane. Otto was lying to Saul since he’s
the one who’s meeting her. Frannie runs to the plane as Carrie tells Otto thanks. He says to get
to the bottom of this then come back to work. Carrie says she will. He tells her Saul came looking
for her and to scare him. He says he told him nothing. She says she’s sorry he had to lie to him
but he says he didn’t mind and says Saul seems like a man too used to getting his way. He tells
her to tell Frannie goodbye.
Jonas gives Frannie a hug then Carrie says she’s going to see her Aunt Maggie and her
cousins. She kisses her and says she’s sad for her to go. She hands her over to Anya who tells
her not to worry. They load onto the plane and Jonas hugs Carrie as she starts crying. She goes
back to the car. They drive back to the house as Carrie stares out the window. Jonas says saying
goodbye to his kids and moving out was the worst day of his life.
She reminds him he sees them on weekends and he says she’ll see Frannie again. She says
he’s not helping and he says that’s because she won’t tell him anything. He says he’s not a brain
reader and she laughs and says mind reader. Carrie says she knows she has not been herself
the last few days and he says he gets it. Carrie says it’s more than sending Frannie away. She
says maybe he can help her see this better. She says it would ask a lot of him and he asks what
he can do.
She asks to stop to eat and says they can talk there. They sit at a table at an empty restaurant.
She says she knows she’s bipolar and says the meds keep her safe and sane. She says what he
doesn’t know is what she’s like off the medication. She says it can be scary as hell but also
exhilarating. She says you feel elated like you’re flying down a ski slope with no chance of falling.
She asks if he’ll still like her once she tells him this. Jonas says he loves her.
She says the meds literally saved her life but she loses something too — she says there’s a
window when she’s lucid and does her best work. She tells him about some of her successes. He
asks if she wants to go off her meds to figure this out. She says she already did — three days
ago. Allison checks with her people who report that Carrie hasn’t been seen since she got back
from Lebanon. They tell her Laura is on her email and they read what she types. Saul comes in
and says Otto said he doesn’t know where she is.
Saul tells her they need to talk. He says he’s known Dar for 30 years and says he knows she
tried to put a knife in his back. He tells her to stop it then says if you aim to kill, don’t miss and
asks if he’s taught her nothing. He says he treated her like an elite intelligence officer and says
to behave like one. She asks when he wants her gone. He says she’s not going anywhere. He says
they can’t afford a shakeup right now. She asks who will be sacrificed for the Germans and he
says he’s working on it. She thanks him.
He says she doesn’t deserve it. Carrie and Jonas come back and she says if he’ll monitor him,
she can push the boundaries some more. He asks for warning signs and she gives him a list
including belligerent or abusive. He laughs but she says he can get ugly. She says give her the
pills once he knows it’s time. Jonas says she should have told him before she went off the meds
and she says sorry. She says the sedative is fast-acting and there won’t be any crisis. He says
there must be another way.
Carrie says not for her. She goes back into her room with the photos and tells him it’s a
timeline of her tours for the CIA. She says she’s making an enemies list of who has the means
and contacts to make it start. Quinn is watching the woman from earlier. They’re at a restaurant.
Quinn’s German ex is there and he asks about Lebanon and if she has any idea where Carrie is.
She says no idea but a lot of people are looking for her. He says he is too. She says she thinks
Carrie is back in Germany.
Quinn asks if she can get him a stingray and she says yes then he asks her to leave with him.
She says she can’t and he says handheld stingray if she can swing it. Jonas and Carrie have
hot sex in her idea room. He’s never had crazy Carrie sex. At the During foundation, the hacker
sits outside. Laura spots him. Some men sit across the street watching the place. He pulls out
a computer and pops it open. Laura goes inside and up to her office. She opens her laptop. The
162
Homeland Episode Guide
fire alarm goes off and she’s told to leave.
She does so reluctantly. The CIA watches this and alerts Allison that the building is evacuating. She asks where Laura is and says to get the team onto the street to look for Laura and
Carrie both. Laura comes out and stands in the crowd. The hacker is nearby and nods. Laura
sees the CIA guy get out of the car. She goes to get into a thicker crowd of people. The hacker
walks and Laura follows. They cross the streetcar tracks and keep going. The CIA has lost her.
Allison is annoyed.
They tell her no Laura, no Carrie. Allison goes outside to stew and get some fresh air. She
sighs. The hacker steps around a corner and Laura follows. She asks if he’s who she thinks he
is. She says that was a ballsy move setting off the alarm. He says he was there when the BND
picked her up. He asks what she told them. She says she told them nothing and says she doesn’t
even know his name. She says of course they’re after him, but he’s smart and tricky.
She says she’ll protect him and he asks how he can be sure. She reminds him he came to her
and he says he read her stuff and thought he could trust her. She asks his name and he says
call me Numan. She says she’s a fan of his too. He says he has the rest of the documents and
she says she can release them like last time. He asks if she gets scared and says she can just
go home to America. She says she has two warrants out for her arrest there. He says he can’t go
home either. She asks Turkey and he says yeah.
He hands her the docs and say she has to go. She tells him he’s doing the right thing. She asks
how she can reach him and he says she can’t. He goes. Carrie takes a caffeine pill. She crushes
it and snorts it. Jones comes in and asks if that’s necessary. She says she made progress after
he went to bed and says he can make her coffee. She says this is faster. Laura comes back to her
office. She opens her safe. She gets out a second computer she has there and then makes a call.
Laura calls Jonas and leaves a message saying she needs him and asks where he is. She plugs
the flash drive in and sees a portrait that giggles and flips her off and she says ”you little f-er.”
He didn’t give her the documents. Maybe he was trying to hack her computer. Numan meets his
pal Korzy at the club and says he had to meet someone — he tells him it was Laura Sutton. He
says he gave her the documents. Korzy is shocked and Numan says no more talk about selling
them to the highest bidder.
Korzy calls him an asshole and Numan says it was the right thing to do. Korzy says he’s a fool
and doesn’t even know what a fool he is. Carrie talks about Abu Nazir’s bombmaker and says
he had a son who would be 18 now. Jonas says he knows this story and says it came up in her
background check for Otto. He says she barely got hired. He says the wife Sanaa blew herself up
at a checkpoint and killed three soldiers. She says Bassam should be on the list.
Saul talks with Etai about the business in Lebanon and he asks how this fits together. Saul
asks what. The guy says Carrie was handling security and met with Waleed from the Hezbollah.
He tells Saul that no one believes Carrie is not still agency. The guy tells him the Israeli government will oppose any regime change. He says getting rid of Bashar is not a bad idea but he can’t
be replaced with someone worse. Saul says they are out of the business of overthrowing regimes.
The Ambassador, Scott, is annoyed that he’s being recalled and says Saul engineered this.
He says he won’t go back and Saul says take it up with the State Department. The guy says the
President owes him and Saul says not as much as he thinks he does, obviously. Jonas looks
through some files she has and says there are hundreds of names there. She says 167. He says
they’re all civilians. She says according to Pakistani foreign ministry. They were all killed while
she was station chief in Kabul by drones.
Jonas is getting a little queasy about all this and she asks what’s wrong. She tells him to
take a break and he says he’s fine then gets snappy with her. She says she can tell something is
wrong and he says he’s going to step out for a minute. She says he thinks she’s appalling and
repulsive, maybe even a war criminal. He says to leave it alone. She says to say something and
he shakes his head at her then walks to the door. She tells him that’s not her anymore. He says
he doesn’t know how she lives with herself.
She paces the floor and then sits with her knees twitching. She looks at the wall of photos.
She tries to gain some focus. She does some deep breathing as she looks at all the faces on the
wall. She paces then goes to the kitchen. She sees a bottle of vodka and pulls it out. She taps
the bottle nervously. She opens it and takes a swig — that’s 9 months of sobriety gone. She sees
Aayan talking to her and he says so much for self-control. She covers her eyes then he’s gone.
Korzy greets a man who works at the Russian embassy who’s in the club. He asks if he’s
163
Homeland Episode Guide
threatening him or trying to blackmail him. Korzy says he has documents for sale — American,
top secret. The guy gets close and says tell him more. Carrie starts taking crazy to one of the
photos and says he’s a loose end she should have killed. Aayan tells her it wasn’t that guy and
says he doesn’t even think of her, doesn’t remember her name.
Carrie says his name and he says Aayan is dust and is done. She asks what he wants and
he says ask him what she wants to know. Carrie asks who is it? Who’s after me? He says come
closer and he’ll whisper in her ear. She steps closer and he whispers to her. She starts crying. At
a German store, Quinn flashes a Polizei badge and grabs the kid of the woman he was watching.
He tapes him up with duct tape. He told the other kid to tell his mom that he was arrested. He
tells the kid to shut the f-k up.
Jonas comes back inside and calls to Carrie and asks if she’s hungry. She sits in the middle
of a circle of photos on the floor. He kneels down. She says she figured it out. She says it’s all
of them. He asks what she means. She says it’s the sum of her sins. She says it’s an avenging
angel then says all angels aren’t good. She says it doesn’t matter who it is because whoever does
it is doing it for them all and says it’s right. She says you can’t atone for that many souls. He sits
her on the bed and goes to get the meds.
He goes back to her and she asks if there’s a church nearby. He tells her to take the medicine
and she says no. She says she’s not crazy and is crystal clear. He says she solved it and it’s time
to go back on the meds. He says they agreed she would take them. She asks if he gets tired of the
Clark Kent routine. He says take them or he will call an ambulance. She says they’ll find them.
He says take the pills or he’ll call. She offers sex and he says take the goddamned pills. She says
he’s a lousy lay anyway.
He says show me after she takes them. She grits her teeth and then shows him her mouth.
He thanks her. She says aww poor little Jonas. She says she bets he never had a GF like her
before. She says she likes it better when he’s mad because at least she knows he’s alive. The
burner rings and she says not to answer it. He says it’s his ex. That’s whose kid Quinn took —
he took Jonas’s kid. The ex wife tells him that their son was arrested for shoplifting. Quinn sits
outside listening to the call and gets coordinates.
He uses the stingray to get the coordinates. Quinn leaves the kid in the van and says they’ll
find you by dinnertime. He gets in the car and drives off leaving the van. Jonas calls the police
and says that’s weird. He says the police have no record of bringing in his son. Carrie says he’s
not in police custody and says it was staged to get him to call. She says Stefan will be fine. He
says they have to get back to Berlin but she says he’s just a pawn. Jonas says it’s his son. She
grabs a bag and runs out into the woods.
Jonas yells at her to come back and says he’s not chasing her. He curses and asks where she
is. She doesn’t answer and he gets into the car and drives away. She opens the bag and pulls out
a rifle and loads it. Saul sits at his desk making a video call to Dar who says the Ambassador is
not happy to be on his way home. Dar says the Germans are appeased then asks if they should
put an official reprimand in Allison’s file. Saul says he needs her for the weekend if they’re still
on and Dar says that’s why he called.
He asks if Dar has cold feet and he says just the opposite. Dar tells Saul they have a green
light but says he failed to mention the conversation with Etai. Dar says screw them as long as
the Israelis don’t know the who or when. Allison tells Saul they lost track of Laura for two hours.
She says they’re supposed to be professionals and says Laura could have met with Carrie. She
climbs in bed with Saul and says she took a Xanax and asks if it’s okay they just sleep. He says
okay then they cuddle up. That’s fun.
Carrie lurks in the woods and it’s dark now. She sees headlights as a car pulls up off the road
then shuts off the lights. She aims the rifle. She sees a guy lurking in a hooded shirt. Quinn
creeps closer cautiously. She watches through the scope. He has binoculars and a gun. She
takes a shot at him and he goes down. She looks around then checks with the scope. She creeps
closer to Quinn. She never saw his face when she shot.
She takes aim again as she gets closer. He’s gone. He comes up behind her and chokes her.
She goes limp and then he drugs her with a syringe. He was wearing a Kevlar vest and he groans
as he pulls off his jacket — he says mother-er.

Answers elude Carrie; Laura asks Jonas for help; Saul and Allison run
an operation.
The episode begins with Allison and Saul
at a Passover dinner. Etai leads it says
celebrating Seder in Germany is important because of their slavery just 70 years
ago under a tyrant. He says their parents and grandparents wore yellow stars.
He says they still have enemies all over
the world who wish to destroy them and
says we pray for the strength to defeat
them. Carrie wakes and looks around.
She sees some food nearby and a toothbrush. She’s tied to a cot.
Quinn comes in and she says — thank
God. He sits and she says his name again. She tells him to untie her. She asks what the f-k is
going on and he says her name is on a kill list. She says she knows but can’t figure it out. He
says she must have crossed a line and pissed someone off. He tells her to stop moving. He cuts
his hand and wipes blood on her face. He unties her and then says Saul put her name on the
list. He tells her to close her eyes. She sits and he says play f-ing dead. She says she doesn’t
believe it.
He says she’d better and he snaps the pic. He tells her to get cleaned up because they have
shit to do. She asks what. He says they have to execute her fallback plan. She asks what if she
doesn’t have one. He says the picture will buy her time but she has to disappear. She asks how
his deal with Saul works and he says it doesn’t matter. He says Saul gives him a name and he
gives proof of death. She says Saul gave her name then asks why. He says he doesn’t know and
doesn’t want to.
She says she didn’t do anything and he says she’s probably not even aware of what she’s
done. She says she needs to talk to Saul. Quinn says the order may have come from someone
senior and if she shows she’s alive, they will keep coming from her. Etai asks him again about
a plan to overthrow Bashar and Saul says there isn’t. Etai says he heard that Yousef would be
165
Homeland Episode Guide
their replacement choice. Etai says the man was behind a chemical weapons attack. Saul asks
what’s the alternative — leave Assad in place. Etai says when Arabs are killing Arabs, they’re not
firing rockets at Jew.
He tells Saul he was once a better friend to Israel. Allison thanks Etai for including her then
tells Saul they have to leave in 15. Jonas calls Carrie and gets voice mail. Laura comes in and
asks Jonas what’s going on. She says Otto should fire Carrie since she didn’t keep him safe in
Lebanon. Jonas says Carrie told Otto not to go. Laura says her source gave her an empty flash
drive and says the CIA is still following her. Laura asks him to have his hacker client reach out
to her source. Otto comes in and asks if it’s all right. She says she wants Jonas to track down
her source. Otto says he should.
Jonas agrees to make the call. Laura gets a call and walks away. Jonas says Carrie is gone
without a trace. He says they can’t call the police because it would put Carrie in more danger.
Jonas asks who lives like this and Otto says — she does. He tells Jonas he’s worried about her
too. Carrie sits and Quinn starts a video recording. Carrie makes a recording for Frannie. She
says she was named after her grandfather Frank then says she knows Frannie will be mad that
she had to leave. Carrie says it wasn’t safe for me to be with you but I’m trying to get back to
you.
Quinn says she’s making it sound like she’s still alive. Carrie says she will figure it out and fix
it. Quinn says if they realize she’s alive, they will get to her through Frannie. He says Frannie is
safe if Carrie is dead. Carrie starts crying then asks how he felt when he left his kid. He says not
everyone is fit to be a parent. He restarts the recording. Carrie says maybe now you’re going by
Frances and says she had to leave her and she probably hates her for it and she doesn’t blame
her. She says something happened and it wasn’t safe for her to be with her.
Carrie stops herself and says she did everything she could to get back to her, but she didn’t
make it. She says the kind of work that I did is dangerous and says she believed in it so she took
the risk but then she came along and she realized she wanted a better life with her daughter.
She says she had it with her for a while but... She stops and says — I didn’t abandon you. She
says she knows what that feels like and would never do it. She tells Frannie she’s the best thing
she’s ever done and makes up for every mistake she’s ever made. Quinn looks away while she
talks. Carrie cries and says I love you very much.
She tops the recording. Laura is on the street in a shady area. She heads to a shabby building
and rings the bell. She’s looking for Sabine. The girl says no Sabine here but Laura says the
meeting was arranged through her lawyer. The woman grudgingly lets her in. She says Sabine is
under house arrest and the BND keep sniffing around for some reason to send her back to jail.
She makes Laura put her cell in a bag that blocks the signal. The first woman shows her the
ankle monitor then says she’s Sabine. Her GF says Sabine can’t communicate with journalists
as a condition of her probation.
They tell Laura they like her work. Laura says there are more documents but she can’t find the
hacker. She says Gabe H Coud could find it — his hacker name stands for douchebag backwards.
Laura says she’s facing arrest and extradition then asks if they know what it means. Sabine says
it means she’s not scared and Laura says she tries not to be. Allison meets a private plane on
a small air strip. A family gets off the plane including General Yousef and his wife. They think
she’s from a medical clinic that is supposed to help his daughter. Yousef’s security is vigilant but
he tells them to relax.
Allison says the donor arrived safely. Yousef says she’s not his Swiss and she says she’s from
Berlin. She tells him his daughter will be fine. They drive to a private ”clinic” and go inside.
Allison introduces Dr Droz who tells them everything is in order. They hand him an envelope for
the donor and Allison asks if they want to spend a moment with their daughter before she goes
into surgery. Allison watches them talk to their daughter who is wheeled away. Allison says the
waiting lounge is this way then points. She excuses herself.
Allison goes to another room. She punches in a code then opens another door and shuts it.
Saul is in an ops room and asks what she thinks of Yousef. She says he’s what you would expect
and says his officers seem to be in charge and he resents that. Saul says Assad may think he’s a
flight risk. Allison says they have a hand of aces and they can likely burn him. She says he does
smoke and says Saul should offer him one of his cigars. She tells Saul she has to go and steps
out. Saul watches Yousef pace. Carrie pulls stuff out of her fallback supplies.
Quinn says Carrie must not have been sure her new life would work out since she has all this
166
Homeland Episode Guide
stuff. Carrie asks where he’s been and he says Syria. She says she has looked for him everywhere
she went and never stopped thinking about him. He says it doesn’t matter now. She slips on a
dark wig and asks how she looks. He says — like somebody else. She asks if he ever saw Saul
use the drop. He says the first time and she asks since and he says no. She says he can’t know
if Saul put her name in there and Quinn says it’s Saul’s operation.
She says sending him to kill her is not smart and Saul would know that. She says someone
could be in their operation and they need to test it. She asks him to take him to his drop. She
says she trust Saul more than she trusts anyone and can’t give up her daughter on less than
a certainty. Yousef comes to Allison’s office and she says there are forms he needs to sign. His
guard steps out and she drops the accent and asks him to sit. He does. He asks what’s happening
here. She says everyone here is CIA except the surgical team. She says he is in violation of
international sanction.
She says the can send him to The Hague for war crimes. She tells him to keep looking at the
form but says there’s an alternative. She tells him to go for a smoke in the garden after lunch
alone and he can hear more. She hands him the pen and he signs it. She thanks him and says
she knows he wants to get back to his wife now. She smiles at him like a clinic staffer would
and closes the door after he leaves. She looks up at the camera and shrugs where Saul can see.
Sabine is looking for Gabe H online while Laura paces around frustrated. Sabine finds him and
Laura comes back over.
Sabine tells Gabe that there were no docs on the drive. He’s surprised. Then he curses and
says Korzy must have done with it. He tells Sabine his friend must have screwed with it. Gabe
(aka Numan) calls Korzy and asks what he did with the drives. Gabe goes looking for him and
asks his GF where Korzy is. She tells him to get out and says he’s working. He grabs her phone
and says to call him now. He says call and I’ll leave. She gives up and covers the camera then
makes the call. He snatches the phone and asks what he did with the docs. Korzy says they’ll be
rich.
He says his Russian friend paid big and says they even sent a car but he’ll cut him in. Gabe
tells him he doesn’t know what he’s doing. Gabe tells him to get out of the car but Korzy hangs
up on him. Now Korzy looks nervous. They stop and he gets out and is taken into a bar that’s
nearly empty. Korzy is told that Boris is not there and says his name is Ivan and this is Valentin.
Korzy says money first and he hands him a bag. Inside are thick stacks of cash. Korzy says okay
and the guy says to give it over. He hands him a flash drive. Ivan takes it and says they will check
it. He offers him a drink to toast.
He asks if it’s the only copy and Korzy says yes and promises. Korzy says he’s going but Ivan
says sit. He says he wants to be a trusting person but says cynical people make it hard and says
that’s not a pleasant life. He says he wants to trust him but he’s cynical. Yousef’s wife stares out
the window and says Geneva is so peaceful. He says he’s going to smoke. She asks him to check
on Anena. He tells the guard to leave him then says what, they think he’ll swim across the lake
while his daughter is in surgery. Saul sits waiting for him. Yousef recognizes him and says he’s
flattered.
Saul offers him a smoke and lights it. He tells Yousef that they know Syria’s crisis is getting
worse every day. He says the Islamic State is preparing an offensive against the regime. Yousef
says he knows all of this. Saul says they will lose the war and his people will be slaughtered.
Saul says he knows he loves his country and has a loyal following among the officers. He says
he thinks they will follow him when he replaces Assad. Yousef chuckles then asks if this is his
solution for Syria. Saul says it’s the best they have. Yousef half of the government is related to
Bashir. Saul says they are loading $10 million onto his plane.
He says he needs to promise free elections and the US will support them. Saul says they have
to act quickly. Yousef says he’s wrong and says the Islamic State is the danger in Syria. He says
the world will come around to supporting Bashir. Saul says if Assad stays in power he’ll have to
answer for his crimes. He says Assad has already tattled. Saul says Assad will blame Yousef for
these crimes. Saul says he will say anything to keep his grip on the power. Saul sees a guard
then tells Yousef they are out of time. Saul says — lead your people into the light. Yousef walks
off.
A man holds a gun on Korzy’s GF who is crying and has a bloody nose. Ivan tells a bloody
and beaten Korzy that they found it then he says he only kept one copy. They garrote him. Gabe
goes to Korzy’s place and sees the door is ajar. He goes inside and calls out for Korzy then sees
167
Homeland Episode Guide
his GF shot dead in a chair. He gasps and then gets out of there ASAP. Quinn and Carrie pull
up outside the German post office. They agree to sit and watch until Saul comes — she doesn’t
think it will be Saul. Quinn goes to make the proof of death drop. HA! I bet it’s Allison that put
Carrie’s name in the box.
Carrie sits in the driver’s seat as Quinn instructed. He goes to the box and opens it. The
postman watches Quinn on camera then sends a text in German that says ”Den Fruend ist hier.”
That means your friend is here. A gunman gets the text and pulls out in his car. A young woman
runs into Quinn and drops her mail and he helps her. Carrie watches the people around her with
suspicion as they pass. Wuinn comes out. A car pulls up and gets ready to take a shot at Quinn.
Quinn ducks but is shot. Carrie throws it in reverse and backs into the shooters car.
Quinn killed his would-be assassin and Carrie snaps a pic of the shooter then shoves Quinn
into the car. Quinn says whoever wants her dead now wants him dead. Carrie takes him back to
Quinn’s safe house and she checks him. She says there’s an exit wound. He tells her where the
medical supplies are and she runs to get them. He’s in pain and bleeding. She prepares a shot
and asks if he’s still with her. She puts the shot into him and says she has to put pressure on
the wounds. She sits him up and dresses the wound. She tells him to hang on. He puts his head
down on her shoulder.
Allison escorts Yousef and his family back to the plane after the surgery. He says he would
like his wife and daughter to remain behind until this is resolved. Allison says they can’t do it
and says if he went back to Syria without them it would raise a red flag. Yousef says he could
just take their money and run off and Allison says they’re betting he’s smarter than that. Allison
tells Saul what Yousef asked and he says that’s a good sign. He says it means he knows he’s f-d
and might just cooperate. Carrie has tended to Quinn and she looks at the shooters phone. She
says there’s only one number on it.
Quinn says to call it. She does and Allison answers speaking Russian. Carrie ends the call
and then they hear a boom and see that Yousef’s plane exploded moments after take-off. Saul
says — oh my God. I was right about Allison trying to have Carrie killed then Quinn. Saul is not
going to like that once he finds out. He may put Allison down himself if Quinn or Carrie doesn’t
get to her first.

The hacktivists rise up; Quinn covers for Carrie; Dar and Allison assess the damage.
The episode begins with Saul and Allison
still at the airstrip. Dar is there as well.
Allison says the Swiss police are 10 minutes out and they don’t yet know who was
on the plane. Saul says they kept them
in the loop somewhat and Allison says
she thinks someone betrayed them. Allison says she has the medical team in
interrogation and they worry who else it
might be. Dar sends her away while he
talks to Saul. Astrid comes out and finds
her bike tire flat. She takes it to her car
where Carrie lurks nearby.
Astrid says the CIA is looking for her
and Carrie says Quinn trusts Astrid so
she has to. They get into the car. Carrie
says she needs her help and Astrid slashing her tire wasn’t a good way to start. Carrie shows her the photo of the assassin she killed.
Carrie says no one can know about this and she’s literally putting her life on the line. Carrie says
she was the intended target in Lebanon, not Otto During and says whoever it is after her think
she’s dead.
Astrid says she doesn’t know the man then Carrie says the man also tried to kill Quinn. Astrid
asks if Peter is okay and Carrie says he’ll live. Astrid wants to see him and Carrie says it’s not
a good time. Carrie goes to get out of the car. Astrid asks for the photo and says she’ll try but
she’s not doing it for Carrie. She tells Astrid that no one can know she saw her. Peter takes the
bandage off to check his wound. He’s still hurting badly. He hears the door and grabs a gun, but
it’s just Carrie.
He says she was gone a long time and she says she had to wait for Astrid to wake. She says
Astrid didn’t know the guy on sight. Carrie notes that Quinn has a fever and helps him to the cot.

She checks the wound and says it doesn’t look good. He says it’s going septic. He says there’s
an ER a mile down the street then asks how she feels about armed robbery. She calls Jonas and
tells Quinn that his sister is a doctor. Gabe is at a strip club. He nods to a girl who looks nervous.
She comes to sit by him then asks where he’s been. He says Katja is dead and she says cops
were there to talk to Korzy. She says he hasn’t been in today. He curses and she asks if Korzy
killed Katja. He asks her about Katja’s regular Russian customer. She says Boris but that wasn’t
his real name and says she’d recognize him. Gabe tells her to come with him. He takes her to
the video room then into the tech room. He asks when he was last here. She says four days ago
maybe. He pulls up video.
They watch it on fast forward. The girl points him out. Gabe gets a face shot and asks if she’s
sure. She says she is. He plugs in a flash drive and copies the file. He has her drape a sheet over
the lockers while he puts on a mask. He says everything must be covered so there is no hint of
who they are. He says he owes this to Katja and Korzy. He puts on a mask and she starts the
camera. He says he’s Gabe H Coud and says this video shows a pig who works at the Russian
Embassy.
He says this man murdered an innocent girl and disappeared her partner. He says it’s a call
to arms. He says show up at the Russian Embassy at noon so their voices will be too loud to
ignore. Jonas shows up to the safe house and tells him to get inside because it’s not safe. She
lied and says she was hurt so he’s surprised to see her safe. He is furious and she says they
need to get an IV into a friend of hers or he’ll die. She promises to explain and Jonas asks why
he should do anything for her.
Carrie says she doesn’t know then asks if he has the antibiotics. Jonas looks at Quinn who’s
out cold. Carrie tells Jonas to wash his hands to she can help. Allison tells Saul he hasn’t spoken
since they left Geneva. Saul says he had convinced himself they were going to change the world.
He says it wasn’t the Syrians. He says they wouldn’t have let the plane get off the ground in
Damascus. She says maybe it’s someone who wanted to keep Youssef out of it and suggest
Mossad and Etai.
He says he doesn’t buy it and says nothing is simple about Israel sabotaging their operation
and the simple answer is usually correct. Allison drops Saul off and says she won’t be able to
sleep tonight so she’s going to go into work. He kisses her then goes. She tells him not to forget
his bag. He grabs it and goes. Allison watches as he goes inside. Jonas asks what if he doesn’t
get better but she says he will. He asks if she’ll take him to the hospital. She asks if his sister
would come check him.
Jonas refuses to involve his family further and Carrie says she gets it. Jonas says he won’t be
involved any further either. He strips off his gloves as Carrie thanks him and says he’s done more
than enough. Jonas says no one should have to live like this. Carrie says she has no choice. He
says she does. Jonas says it’s insane and says assassination attempts and gun battles in the
streets. He says she needs to find a way to stop it. He says he doesn’t want to lose her and
thought he had.
Carrie looks away. Later, Allison is met by Ivan, the Russian, who says all went as planned.
She says she got a call from Vasily but it wasn’t Vasily. He says he was afraid of that then says
it’s not her problem. He says he thinks it was Saul’s hit man. Allison says they will find out she
put Carrie’s name in the hit box. He says it might lead to the SVR but not to her. He tells her to
f-ing relax. Ivan says — this was your problem then hands her a cell phone showing the photo of
a dead Carrie. Allison curses.
Allison says her nerves are shot. Ivan touches her hand and holds it for a moment. He says
just a little farther now. He says they’re almost there and she says — easy for you to say. He says
don’t be scared of Dar then says he’s a pussycat. She says it will take more to turn him against
Saul. The man says Saul’s weakness is Israel and says when Dar comes to her play hard to get
then go to Saul with a passenger manifest. Allison agrees. He winks at her and says ciao. Allison
asks him to stay with her a bit longer.
He says sure and turns off his car then lights a cigarette and passes it to her. They sit
swapping it back and forth. Allison’s hands are shaking. At the CIA station in Berlin, Allison
works the next day. Dar knocks and comes in and tells her something came up. He asks if Saul
is in the building. She says he is. Then he asks about their dinner at Etai’s. She says they went
to Passover. He says she reported it was friendly. He says the bomb was magnetic and set to go
off at 20,000 feet but malfunctioned.

He says the techs told him it was like what Israel has been using against the nuclear scientists. He says Etai and Saul go back a long way. He says they can’t ignore the possibilities then
tells her to put a team on this. She asks if he means Etai but he says Saul and says he wants
to know who he meets and what he’s saying to them. Allison broods on this development as she
prints out something. She grabs up the printed papers then goes to see Saul.
She finds him working and he says he’s looking at people at Langley. Allison says she has
something he needs to see and shows him the passenger manifest of people on a Saturday flight
to Geneva. She tells him to look at the highlighted name — Michael Petrich — a professor of
applied sciences. Saul asks who that is and she shows him the photo. It’s Etai. Saul says his
name and Allison says he was there in Switzerland the day Youssef’s plane went down. Saul
sighs.
Saul asks if they know who Etai met and what he did. She says she hasn’t told Dar and came
to him first. Saul says to keep it between them for now. He leaves. Allison shakes her head —
it went off just as Ivan said. Astrid looks for a match for the photo. She’s startled by her boss
who says there’s a crowd at the embassy. He asks what she was looking for and she says an
identification. He asks to see and she shows him the photo. He says this is a paid assassin and
they do counter-terrorism.
He recognizes the man and she asks who it is. He asks who’s asking and she says Annabel, a
pal from the LKA. He pulls up the profile of Vasily Kovas. She thanks him. He says do it on your
own time next time and she says yes. She sighs once he’s gone. The news reports on the protest
outside the embassy. Jonas tells Carrie that she should see this. A reporter says the hacker
reported that the SVR killed a young woman named Katja Keller to get to CIA documents.
Jonas asks what this means. Carrie calls Astrid and asks what’s up with the Embassy. She
asks if these are the same documents Laura was writing about. Astrid says that’s what the hacker
said. Carrie asks about the photos and Astrid says it’s Vasily Kovas, a Chechen who used to kill
for Russian organized crime who’s now working freelance. Astrid says he has done a bunch of
freelance work for the SVR lately. Astrid says he’s a real tough guy. Carrie ends the call.
Carrie says it’s been right in her face. She goes to Quinn and says the guy who tried to kill
him worked for SVR. She says Saul didn’t put her name in the killbox, the Russians did. She
says there’s more on the CIA hack. Quinn tries to get up and says he has to go. Carrie says no
one is after her now. Carrie asks Jonas where Laura is and says she needs to see the documents.
Jonas goes to call her. Quinn says Carrie needs to get out of town. She refuses. Jonas ends the
call and says Laura is at the Embassy.
Carrie asks Jonas to please look after Quinn for a few hours. She says it’s the last thing she’ll
ask. He agrees and they embrace. Carrie leaves. Quinn checks his bandage and sees he’s still
bleeding. Saul goes to see Etai then asks if he heard about a plane that went down in Geneva.
Saul asks about Etai’s intel source. Etai asks if he thinks Israel brought down the plane then
tells Saul to f-k himself. He asks where Etai was on Saturday and why he was in Switzerland. He
says he was recruiting an asset.
He says it was a waste of time because they never showed. Saul says this is troubling and Etai
says these are coincidences. He says they did not murder the general and Saul says someone
did. The CIA tail snaps photo of Etai and Saul talking. Laura interviews people at the protest.
She asks if they think Gabe is dangerous and then asks if he’s there. He says he’s Gabe and they
all say — me too. They start chanting that they are Gabe H Coud. Carrie shows up in her brown
wig and tries to avoid cameras.
She buys a mask from a protestor and slips it on. She pulls up her hood and works her way
through the crowd. She drops a phone in Laura’s pocket then moves on. Soldiers put on riot
gear nearby. Carrie calls the phone and Laura answers. She tells her to get out of there before
the cops move in and says she’s watching the cops get ready to raid and tells her to lose her
cameraman and meet her at the closest train station. The cops start with tear gas and move into
the crowd of protesters.
Allison shows Dar the photos of Saul and Etai and says they have no audio. She says it’s
probably unrelated. Dar sighs and looks at the photos some more. Laura is in the bahnhof and
comes up an escalator. Carrie sits on a bench waiting and tells her to sit and take out her phone
and pretend like she’s talking on it. She does. Carrie acts like she’s talking on an earbud mic.
Carrie says she needs to see the CIA files and Laura says she doesn’t have the files. She says the
hacker doesn’t have them either.
171
Homeland Episode Guide
She says the guy’s buddy sold them to someone at the Russian embassy. Carrie curses and
stands like she’s looking for a train. Laura says Gabe didn’t have the only copy and says he
downloaded it and didn’t delete it from the server. She says maybe Carrie can get a CIA friend
to get them. Carrie says they are not her friends and Laura says she has few options. Quinn is
doing poorly and tells Jonas he’s cold. Jonas sees the wound is bleeding freely.
Quinn says if he calls an ambulance, Carrie will be killed. Jonas says they’re out of their f-ing
minds. Jonas says he would never put himself in that situation. Quinn laughs and says he’s
already in it. Carrie calls and tells Jonas she’s going to be a little longer. He says Quinn has
lost a lot of blood. She asks him to call his sister and he says the guy is dying. Carrie says call
an ambulance then. He sighs and dials but then has to hang up when he comes back and sees
Quinn is gone.
Jonas runs outside and doesn’t see him. He calls for Quinn. Quinn was hiding inside from
him. He’s in the garage and makes his way to a case. He gets out a gun and then puts it down
and grabs some zip ties. Carrie is at a hotel and sees Saul come in. She goes to approach him
then lets him walk by. A tail gets on the elevator before Saul. The man gets off and goes one way
and Saul goes the other. He goes into his room and sees a note on the floor.
He opens it and it’s a stick of Black Jack gum. Quinn sits on the docks panting and quivering
from his fever. He tries to zip tie his wrists together around a concrete block. A man approaches
him and speaks to him. Quinn says go away. The man says God sent him to help him. Quinn
curses. The man kneels and says he’s injured and says he will take him to a hospital. Quinn
says no hospital. The man takes the zip tie from him and Quinn says leave me alone.
Quinn struggles to stand and walks away from the guy. The man follows him. Saul leaves his
room and presses the elevator button then heads down the stairs and into the kitchen. He jogs
now and goes out the loading bay by the catering vans and onto the street. A taxi pulls up and
the door opens. He sees her and gets inside. She asks since when is he a runner and he says
since Mira filed for divorce. Quinn struggles on whimpering and the man follows.
Quinn staggers and coughs and then tries to open a dumpster to climb into. He can’t get into
it. The guy walks up on him and stares at him. Quinn falls unconscious.

Saul orders a sweep at the station; Carrie looks to Düring for support.
The episode starts at a prison. Prisoner
names are called and they are given their
little Muslim hats. They are all released.
It’s the allegations of illegal spying by
the US and Germany that set them free.
Laura asks Zayd if he plans to return to
Syria. He refuses to answer her and tells
her to get out of his way. A guy with Laura
says she must be glad she got him out. A
man picks up Zayd who says they have
much to do.
Carrie gets out of the cab and Saul follows her. She says he tried to take her out
and he calls BS. She says someone put
her name in his killbox. She says there
was a shoot out at his dead drop and he
must have seen it on the news then says
Quinn was hit. Saul doesn’t have answers. She says the Russians did it. She says the bomb in
Syria was also meant for her. He asks why the Russians give a shit about her. She says there is
something in the hacked documents they don’t want her to see.
She says he needs to get the documents for her then says Quinn made it look like she’s dead
so she bought time. Saul says he can’t hand them over. He says that causes problems. She says
his own agency is following him but he doesn’t believe her. He says she built a wall between them
and says they should stay on their own sides. She says she risked her life to come to him and he
says ask your hacker friends for the documents. He gets a taxi and goes.
Zayd gets a hero’s welcome in his neighborhood. He goes upstairs and gets warm greetings
all along the way. Quinn is in that apartment building being cared for by a Muslim doctor. Saul
takes the cab to his hotel then notices his CIA tail just as Carrie told him. He waits for the elevator
and looks around. He starts noticing things finally. Allison finds Saul outside her building and
asks him what’s going on. He says he’s being followed then asks if she’s being followed too.
173
Homeland Episode Guide
He says she doesn’t seem surprised then he asks if she ordered it. She says Dar did. He says
their plans for Syria blew up with the plane and she says something in the wreckage implicated
Israel then says she should have told him. He agrees she should have. He says he wants the
station checked for bugs and says if it’s not bugged they have an even bigger problem. The man
who found Quinn argues with another man — Zayd — about Quinn. Zayd comes in then asks if
he’s a spy.
Zayd shakes him and the man says he’s under a sedative and says he can’t talk. He says the
man was so weak, he transfused him with his own blood. He says Allah commands them to be
kind to guests and Zayd says he shouldn’t have made him a guest. Carrie comes back and sees
that Jonas is there alone and Quinn is gone. He says he looked everywhere for him and he’s been
gone 20 hours. He says he thinks Quinn went out to die.
Jonas rants at Carrie and says this is no way to live. He says she needs to go to the authorities
but she says she doesn’t know who to trust. He says trust me then says he’s going home and
asks her to come with him. She asks for time to think it through. She says she just saw Saul
and he refused to help her get the documents. Jonas tells her to shut up about the documents
then says a man walked out that door bleeding to save her. He says he’s leaving — he’s done and
then he goes.
The sweep for bugs starts at the CIA station. They go room by room clearing it. Saul oversees
it and Allison says it’s not a good time for this. He says they have no choice. Dar shows up and
writes a note — talk now — and they step into a private room. Dar asks what authority this
is under and Saul asks why Dar didn’t set up a sweep then asks why he’s being tailed and is
anyone else being tailed. Saul says he knows what this is about and says he leaked three names
30 years ago to Mossad.
He says Dar is hanging onto it like it’s yesterday. Dar says he went to Etai and Saul says
to make sure he’s not involved. Dar says Etai was there and Saul says it was the Russians.
Allison lurks nearby listening. Dar says Saul is screwing his co-worker and he’s sick of his bad
judgment. They each tell each other to f—k off. Dar says he’s bringing in a polygraph expert. Dar
says come clean right now or else. Saul says he told him who it was and Dar asks where he got
that from.
Saul says nothing and Dar says he’ll face the machine tomorrow and storms out. Quinn
wakes and looks around. He sits up in pain and stands. He walks with his pee bottle down the
hall looking for a place to dump it. He finds the bathroom and dumps it out then flushes. He
goes to the sink and looks at his wound and sees it’s still draining but looks better. He hears a
man saying — they humiliated all of us and talking about how they will kill thousands of them
for each of them — here in Germany.
The rescuer tells him he needs to lie down and Quinn says he should tell his friends to plug
the event or they’ll be heard. Zayd hears them talking also through the vent and comes to stare
at him up the stairwell. Saul goes to his hotel room and the key doesn’t work twice then does on
the third try. He goes inside and looks around cautiously. He shuts the drapes and starts looking
for bugs. He hears a noise and goes to see there’s a door ajar. It’s a maid. He searches her cart
while she stares shocked.
He stops and says sorry. He hands her back the towels she dropped and goes back into his
room. At the During Foundation, Otto pulls into the parking deck as he gets a text from unknown
says — I’m behind you. He gets out of his car and sees Carrie in her dark wig in a far corner. He
walks over to her and she says she’s staying out of security cameras. She says the people after
her think she’s dead so she has to disappear. She hears a car and looks around cautiously.
She says she hates to ask him for help then says she has nowhere else to go. He asks what
she needs and she says a plane. He asks to where and she says it’s best he doesn’t know. She
says tell the pilot 12 hours of fuel plus reserves. He says he’s happy to help but isn’t sure this
will help her. He says he’ll do it if she’s sure it’s what she wants. Carrie says she went to Saul
and says he was always there for her but this time he wasn’t and it shocked her.
Carrie says he hates her then says her friend Quinn was hurt and she didn’t take care of him
like she should have. He asks what’s the problem and she says she is and she brings down those
around her. She says she has an opportunity to go away and take the problems with her. He says
she has him and Jonas but she says she doesn’t have Jonas then says she’d like to leave today.
Saul goes to the lie detector room and the guy asks if Saul is ready. He says just a minute.
Saul walks down and asks for Ruben, the guy working on the network breach. They tell him
174
Homeland Episode Guide
where to find him. Saul goes down there and asks how he’s doing. He asks if there’s anything
about the Russians in there. They close the files when he comes in. Saul asks if they have a
print out and they tell him he’s not on the list to see them. He says the list was revised this
morning and tells Saul to talk to Dar Adal. Saul goes to his computer and tries to log in but gets
a non-authorization warning.
He tries again then curses. He sees the people walk by who are checking for bugs. He tells the
guy he needs him to check something and tells him to bring his stuff. He goes and gets them to
start on another room which distracts a guy and he hops onto that guy’s computer and copies
the hacked files onto a flash drive then creeps out through another door. Quinn looks much
better. He tells Quinn it’s safer for him to stay in this room instead of walking around.
Quinn says Hussein has done enough. He says he was a doctor back home but can’t practice
here because they won’t honor his license. He says his wife was a doctor too and died in a clinic
bombing back home. He says he manage this building now. Two men come and tell Quinn to
come with him. Quinn tells Hussein it’s okay. He says Zayd was screaming crazy things and
says they can’t be happy that he’s back. Quinn walks over to them slowly and goes to see Zayd.
Hussein goes along. He says he’s not a spy and says they were talking too loud. Zayd chases
him out then tells the other this guy heard their plans. Quinn says he heard a few words and it
doesn’t make sense. He tells Zayd he knows he just got out of jail and says he’s under surveillance
and will be caught and locked up for life. Then he says maybe Zayd wants to go back to jail so
he doesn’t have to go backt o Syria and fight the real jihad.
Quinn says he’s spent enough time in Syria to know how bad it is. He says kill me or don’t
then says just make sure whatever you do that the police aren’t watching. He walks to Hussein
and they walk away. The tech tells Allison that Saul took the hacked documents just a few
minutes ago. Dar comes in and tells Allison that Saul skipped the poly and Allison says he took
the docs. Turns out he slipped the people who were following him. Allison calls Saul and says
she knows he took the documents.
She tells him to come back in and says she can square things with Dar. They get Saul’s
location tracing the call. She asks what is in the documents and he asks if Dar is with her. She
says yes. Saul says it’s what he already told him — Russians. Saul is at a restaurant and follows
Otto in and sits. He says he wants to talk to him about Carrie. He tells the guy Carrie came to
him for help and says he didn’t trust her because of him. He says he has something for him to
give Carrie.
He says this is for Carrie alone, not for his people to post or tweet. He says he doesn’t have
long. Two CIA men came in. Otto says they have no authority here and says this is a private club.
They ask if they can search Otto who tells the others in the restaurant that these men are CIA
and want to search his guest and him. He says he will consent if they apologize to everyone in
the room when they don’t find what they’re looking for. They are both searched by the CIA men.
Nothing turns up, of course. They grab Saul and Otto tells them they have to apologize. They
make a curt apology and haul Saul outside. He goes with them peacefully. Carrie looks at photos
on her phone of Frannie and Jonas. Carrie is told her car is here. She deletes all the messages
including the photos. Quinn gets ready to leave and Hussein has medicine for him to take but
then says he’s not well enough to go and says he should stay one more night. Quinn thanks him
for taking care of him.
He asks if Quinn has somewhere to go and someone to look after him. He says he does. One
of the men tells Quinn he knows he’s not a spy but Zayd wants to execute him. He says only
one man supports him. He asks why Quinn was in Syria then asks why. Quinn implies he’s a
mercenary and the man asks if he really thinks the police are watching him. He tells Quinn that
Zayd is no Emir like he implied. Otto apologizes to the club as he leave for the disturbance.
He finds something in his coat when he gets it from the coat check girl. Carrie asks the driver
to make a quick detour. She gets out at her old apartment and stars through the window at
Jonas who is in the kitchen. She looks for a moment then walks way. Hussein wishes Quinn
luck. Zayd lurks in the street nearby with some men. He limps towards the hulking Zayd and his
men. He says he’s sorry if he caused them trouble and says he’s leaving and has no quarrel with
him. He says let me pass.
Zayd says he will cut his prick and shove it down his throat. He has a knife and come at
Quinn. He punches Quinn where he’s injured and Quinn gets his knife and cuts his throat so
fast no one saw it. Quinn staggers to a chair and sits. The guy who spoke to him earlier tells the
175
Homeland Episode Guide
others to remove the body of their martyred brother then he goes to Quinn and tells him he must
stay another night and says he’ll be safe now. Hussein checks his wounds.
Carrie is driven to the airport. She gets out and Otto is waiting by the plane. She goes over to
him and he hands her the drive and says it’s from Saul. He says Saul said she’d know what to
do with it. He walks away.

Carrie reconnects with old friends; Saul opens up to Allison.
The episode starts with Allison going up
the stairs of a building. She hears a door
slam and looks down then opens a door
into a hallway. She unlocks a door but
checks behind herself first. She looks
around then closes the door. Inside, she
meets Ivan who asks for the NATO details
he wanted but she says the station is on
lock down. He asks why she didn’t cancel
the meet and what’s up. She says Saul
smuggled a thumb drive out of the building and then met with Otto During. She
says the hacked files were on it.
Ivan asks why and Allison says she’s
been trying to figure it out. Ivan says
Saul despises Otto but Allison says Carrie
makes Saul go extreme things then asks
what if Carrie isn’t dead. Allison says she saw a photo not a body. She asks what if Carrie is alive
and going through the documents. She says she won’t spend the rest of her life in prison and
Ivan says if she is right, it’s a long way to get to them from those files. He says talk to Saul and
she says he’s under guard by Dar’s men. Ivan tells her to make it happen.
He tells her no one does it better than her and says she’s played these men for years and
they trust her. Ivan says again — talk to Saul. Carrie goes through the files that were stolen. She
looks at report after report and then look at one on Javadi. Otto comes in and brings her some
coffee. She thanks him and he asks if she found anything. She says no and she’s just a quarter
of the way through it. She takes a break and he fixes her coffee. She compliments the house and
calls it a Schloss (castle).
He asks what she’s looking for in the files and she says something Russian intelligence would
kill her for. Carrie says she hopes she finds nothing and this is all a misunderstanding. Otto says
what then and Carrie says she would get Jonas, fly home and go get Frannie and all go to the
177
Homeland Episode Guide
cabin she has there and never leave. Otto says it sounds nice. Carrie says Jonas wouldn’t come
with her anyway. She tells him they broke up. Otto says he’s sorry to hear that and says Jonas
is a good man but says he’s a lawyer.
He says Jonas keeps both feet on the ground. Otto says his first wife was earthbound and
says most people are — you’re born with wings or not. Carrie considers. Allison puts files on a
flash drive, pockets it and goes down the hall at work. Saul paces in a room and she asks Dar
if he’s going to keep him indefinitely. Dar says he’s being uncooperative and denies taking the
thumb drive. Allison sets a drive down and says she found it in her desk where Saul was camping
out in her office.
She says it was in the top drawer and has all the files on it. Dar says nice try and Allison says
sleeping with Saul doesn’t mean that she would perjure himself. She also suggests that Saul
could have made a second copy and gave it to Otto. She asks to take a run at Saul but says
not here — at the hotel. She says Saul likes his creature comforts. Carrie prints a Berlin station
report and leafs through it. It’s about Touchstone seeks Oriole. It’s about ”Oriole’s pariah status”
then no further action.
Carrie calls around to Iraq looking for Samir Khalil. She says she must be Shatha when the
woman says he’s not there. She tells her she knew her father years ago and says it’s important
she speak with him. The woman hangs up. Quinn takes some medicine then Bibi comes in and
says they will not attack Berlin and will go fight in the Levant instead. He says the brothers
all agree. Quinn says he doesn’t give a shit what they do. Bibi asks if they can help him get to
Turkey. He says no. They offer to pay him and he says $10k a week and Bibi says his uncle is
important and can pay. He says he collects ransoms in North Syria.
He gives his name as Abu and Quinn says he’s never heard of him. Bibi says come with them
or wait for Zayd’s brothers to come kill him. Bibi says they’re going tonight. Carrie finds Otto in
a chapel on his property. He asks her to come sit with him then says it’s a miracle it survived
the war and the Red Army marching through. He says his mother hired a monk to live with them
and say Mass when he was growing up. He says he found being Catholic difficult and she says
she was lapsed a long time.
Carrie says he seems virtuous to her and he says he’s not. Carrie asks if Laura can join them
there to help track someone down. He says yes. Her phone vibrates and it’s Samir who calls her
his Oriole. She asks why he tried to contact her five months ago. He says someone named Smith
or Jones contacted him but he says he told them he would only talk to her but he never heard
from her. She says Oriole is on the shelf, had flown the coop.
He says someone should have told him and he was waiting for the phone to ring. He mentions
Ahmed Nazari and she says he died in a bombing but Samir says no. He says he saw him in
the neighborhood walking around and he’s sure it was Ahmed. Adal talks to Quinn and says he
didn’t know he was in Berlin. Dar asks if Saul ever mentioned Otto or a joint operation with the
Israelis. Quinn says no then asks to sit. Dar hands him a sandwich. Quinn says he fell in with
some jihadis.
He says they just got out of prison and are looking for an escort to the Syrian border. Dar
says they thought they were planning something big here in Berlin and Quinn says they were.
Dar says Quinn is impressive. He tells him one of them is Abu’s nephew then says they may get
a paint and kill opportunity and Dar agrees. Saul rants to Allison about how he’s a traitor and
Otto is his accomplice. He says it’s sheer f-ing insanity. She says she thinks he took the thumb
drive but can’t figure out why.
He says buy me 72 hours he needs. Allison says she tried and he says if he’s shipped back,
it will be long-term purgatory. She asks why he needs 72 and he says he’ll have the answer by
then or not. She asks what he’s waiting for. Saul asks her if they’re alone right now and she says
as far as she knows. She says they’re not being monitored as far as she knows. He turns on a
CD loud then says — fuck you. He goes to the bathroom and turns on the faucets. He says he
took the drive and gave it to Otto.
Allison asks why and he says he’s loyal to Carrie and says she thinks her life is in danger
because of something in the documents. He says that’s who he’s waiting to hear back from.
Allison says she’s not feeling well and fakes pain. She says she’ll be fine then fakes stomach
pains. He leaves her alone in the bathroom. She sits and pants — it really does look like she’s
not doing well. Is it a panic attack? She groans and pants and then touches her head. She holds
her nose and changes her breathing.
178
Homeland Episode Guide
Allison then gets out her phone and sends a text. She calms down somewhat. She gets up and
turns off the taps and straightens her clothes. She goes back out into the room. Laura brought
Gabe with her and Carrie thanks them for coming. Gabe says he needs to find his friend Korzy
and Carrie says he’s dead. He asks how she knows and she says the SVR killed Korzy because
he was a loose end. She says she needs help finding those responsible for his murder.
She says first to find is Ahmed Nazari and Carrie says he was a CIA asset. She says he was
supposedly killed in a bombing then his wife Jamila went to Jordan. Laura asks to see the
documents and Carrie says she can’t. Carrie asks to talk about it later. Gabe asks for the WiFi
password. Allison goes to Ivan to rant about Carrie being alive. Allision says Ahmed could tell
Carrie everything since he’s in Amsterdam. She tells Ivan he’s underestimating Carrie and says
she’s not willing to take that risk.
Ivan says Allison is the greatest penetration into American intelligence and could be director
one day. He says both of us know she loves this double game. He says she’d be a beached fish
without it. Allison says she just doesn’t want to get caught and Ivan says he knows. He says
they will be waiting for Carrie in Amsterdam. Carrie tells Otto that Saul gave her those files in
confidence not to spread on the internet. Carrie says people have died because of this and she
nearly did and so did Otto.
Gabe comes in and says Jamila is in Amsterdam. Carrie says she’ll get on the road while Gabe
traces her closer. Carrie says she has an expat friend there and Laura asks for a decision on the
docs but Otto says that’s for later. Quinn checks their passports and tells Zaheer he can’t come
because it has a Jordanian stamp. Zaheer says he was on holiday. Quinn says it’s too much of
a risk. The jihadis argue that they don’t need Quinn. Bibi tells Zaheer to get new papers and he
can go next time.
The others head out with Quinn. Saul lies in bed when there’s a knock at his door. He answers
— it’s Allison and he asks if she’s okay. She says they should be together tonight and he tells
her to come in. In Amsterdam, in the Zeeburg District, Carrie parks her car and gets out in her
brown wig. She gets into a taxi and the driver says he loves her brown hair. She asks how long
he’s been driving and he says a few years and says it pays for grad school.
Esam thanks her for getting him out of Iraq and getting him a second chance. He asks if she
wants the report. He says it was easy and he found Jamila using her real name. He says she’s a
widow and lives alone and Carrie asks where. He cranks the car and they head out. Jonas goes to
see Theo and asks for Carrie but he says she left last night and sys Otto is in the stables. Jonas
heads out that way. He says he’s looking for Carrie and Otto says she’s gone to Amsterdam.
He says he’s not sure but she’s still trying to find out what happened in Lebanon. They both
agree they’re worried about her. Otto says he’s concerned about her mental state then asks how
long their deal is with her and Otto says they made a mistake hiring her. Jonas is stunned. Otto
says she’s unstable and they won’t renew her contract then says that should not bear on his
personal relationship with Carrie. In Amsterdam, Carrie says that seems like a big house for a
hairdresser.
They sit and watch it and Esam nods when Jamila comes out. She asks him to go ring the
doorbell and asks if someone called a cab. She shows him a photo of Ahmed and says to also
see if the house has an alarm. Esam goes and knocks. The door opens and he speaks but Carrie
can’t see who he’s talking to. He comes back to the cab and says it’s Ahmed. She asks about the
alarm system and he says none. Carrie says now they wait until he comes out so she can look in
the house.
Dar asks Saul if he wants to go out like an old actor you have to drag offstage. Saul says this
moment will shame Dar in six months or so. Dar tells the guards to put him directly on the plane
and says he doesn’t know what more he could do for Saul who says he could have trusted him.
Dar says Carrie has brought him down like he always said she would. Saul tells him to f-k off
and Dar leaves slamming the door behind him. Saul continues packing and tells the guard he’s
calling for his laundry.
Carrie and Esam sit and finally they see a man leave the house with a dog. Carrie tells Esam
to call when Ahmed gets close to coming back to the house. She gets out and Esam pulls away
to follow Ahmed on his dog walk. Carrie approaches the house and goes into a garage gate then
goes to the back of the house. She breaks the glass and unlocks a back door then goes inside.
She goes room to room rapidly. Saul sits as the guard makes a call and says they couldn’t find
his laundry but will forward it.
179
Homeland Episode Guide
He tells Saul they need to go. Saul leaves with the guards who escort him onto the elevator.
Saul watches the numbers count down then the doors open and armed masked men grab Saul
and shove him into a van and drive away. Carrie searches the house going through a desk and
some drawers. She hears children and a noise then hides. Then she peeks out and sees it’s noise
from across the street. She finds a safe but it’s locked. Esam follows Ahmed who goes to a park.
He loses sight of him and has to get out of the car. Carrie finds a laptop and Esam sees two
mea approach Ahmed in the park. They pick up his dog and grab him by the arm and pull him
away. Esam tells her two men just took Ahmed and he can’t follow since he’s on foot. Carrie
says she’ll meet him there. She grabs the computer and then hears a door open. She hears men
speaking Russian. She’s upstairs and they’re down. She hides and pulls out her gun.
A man comes into the room and checks the safe. He opens it and pulls out something and
walks out. One finds the broken glass and calls out to the other. Carrie opens a window upstairs
and hops out. She scrambles for cover but one sees and takes a shot at her. She runs. On the
sidewalk, she looks around nervously then pulls off her wig after ducking into an alley. She takes
to the streets again then spots Esam’s cab. She goes over and gets in and tells him let’s go but
his throat has been cut.
She hops out of the cab and hurries away. Saul is brought to Etai and he thanks him for the
assist. Etai asks what are we doing now. Saul says he’s never defected before and doesn’t know.
Carrie drives down the road and makes a call. Allison takes the call and Carrie identifies herself.
She says she’s sorry to call her like this and Allison asks what she needs. Carrie says she has
questions about Baghdad and asks if she can meet her. Allison says yes and Carrie says she’s
leaving Amsterdam and will call her later.
She asks Allison to please not tell anyone about this and Allison promises not to. They end
the call. Carrie dives on through the night.

Carrie needs Allison’s help and presses her to see if there is anything
at all that can be done to help her; Quinn’s plans are going to change
in a big way, won’t this be dangerous for everyone?
The episode begins with Quinn and the
Jihadis off the route. He tells Bibi they
should push on to Turkey but he says
they need to rest and eat and tells
Quinn to get into the back because their
host won’t understand an American with
them. He goes to the back and hops inside. The other guys go into the house.
Quinn peeks through the window curtain.
Allison meets Ivan and tells him about
Carrie and says what happened in Amsterdam. She says she doesn’t want to
meet with Carrie. He sighs. She asks him
why doesn’t he just finish her off. He says
there have been too many bodies and
they need to be smart. He asks why she’s
so worried. Allison thinks Carrie will see through and know she’s lying.
He says be patient and wait for Carrie to call. He says act concerned and helpful then lead
her off the track. Dar goes over the details of Saul’s ”abduction” when Allison asks if anything
is new. Dar pulls her in for a private chat. He asks where Saul is then says he knows he wasn’t
abducted. He says it looks like Mossad then asks if she helped him escape.
She tells him to listen to the tapes and he says there’s a gap where Saul turned on the faucets
full blast. She asks if he really wants to know then says Saul told her he loved her and asked for
help. She says Dar is the one who drove Saul to Etai’s arms. She says they need to get Saul back
with as little damage to their reputations as possible.
She tells Dar to call Tel Aviv. Carrie sits in the back pew of a church writing on a notepad.
She tears the page off the pad and tucks it into a hymnal. She returns the hymnal to its place
and goes outside. She sees a man going for a bike and watches him carefully as she goes for her
car. Etai talks to Saul and says Dar called their bluff and says Tovah is on the way to Berlin.
181
Homeland Episode Guide
Saul says he’s f-d and Etai chuckles. He says Saul has two choices — Tovash gives him to
the CIA or he can try and get Saul to Israel. He says it won’t be a true defection but Saul says he
can’t. He says he just needs to give Carrie a few more days to get to the bottom of this. He goes
to leave but the Mossad guy says he can’t let him go under orders from the Director.
Allison shops online for spendy purses when Carrie calls her. She says she had to make sure
she wasn’t being followed and says not at her office. She asks her to meet her in Reinbech and
says she left directions there under protocol. Carrie says she won’t talk over the phone then says
acrobat is alive and she saw him in Amsterdam. Allison says that’s crazy.
She wonders what it means and Carrie says Allison has to meet her and help her put this
together. She says Baghdad protocol. Back in Baghdad in 2005, we see Carrie in the back of a
car and people crowding around it. There are armed US soldiers all over. Carrie gets out and
shows her ID at the embassy and goes inside. She asks for Allison and looks at the POW MIA
wall.
She sees a photo of Brody there. Now, Carrie thinks back on this encounter. Allison came
down to see her and takes her to her office. She asks about her flight and then Samir Khalil
is there and Carrie meets him and finds out she’s taking over for Allison. He’s a judge who is
helping them work on security improvements. He speaks encouraging words but Allison cuts
him off.
He tells Carrie he’s glad she’s there and says they need all the help they can get. In her office,
Allison offers Carrie a drink and says there’s no ice. Carrie says Saul speaks highly of Allison.
They toast to Operation Iraqi Freedom. Allison tells her it’s an exciting post and says she’ll learn
a lot and it will look good in her file. Carrie asks what else.
Allison says if she wants the truth, there are IEDs, suicide bombers, death squads and a
raging insurgency. She says you can’t shove democracy down people’s throats — then she says
sorry and she’s been there too long. Carrie says she wanted to know. Allison says she needs a
couple of months stateside and says she’s from Wisconsin but wants to go to Milan to shop.
Allison says she’s going to burn all her dusty clothes then go to St Lucia and drink daiquiris
on the beach at a bar. Now, Otto calls Carrie and she says she’s okay. He asks if she found the
man she was looking for and she says she has his laptop. She says she can’t access the hard
drive because of a password and asks about Numan. He says he’ll find the hacker for her.
Carrie asks him if he’s seen Jonas. He lies and says no then asks why. She says she was
wondering if he asked about her. He tells more lies then asks if he should tell Jonas about what
she’s going through. He says he’ll get Numan and tells him to be careful. Back in Baghdad,
Allison and Carrie meet with Samir who is angry about the law breaking.
He says the first formal laws were written in Iraq and Carrie says the Hammurabi code. He
says he knows who is selling the judge’s personal information and says they’re pursuing it but
he says the man should have been arrested by now and says his country is circling the drain.
Carrie promises she will personally follow up on Ahmed Nazari.
He leaves then Allison tells Carrie she won’t and says Ahmed is their asset and says the
information he gives them is too valuable. She says his code name is Acrobat then says he’s
needy and has a thing for her. A guy brings food out to Quinn in the van and he thanks him.
Quinn asks why they’re still there and he says they needed to pick up some things.
Quinn asks what things. The guy says if Bibi wants him to know he’ll tell him. Quinn says
they can’t cross the border with weapons then says they’ll all end up in jail. He asks the guy if
he’s ever been in a war zone or jail. Etai and Saul plays chess then Tovah shows up. She wants
to talk to Saul alone but Etai refuses. Tovah says director’s orders.
Etai has no choice but to leave. Tovah and Saul sit and she asks if he’s there to help Israel.
He says he doesn’t want to defect or offer them information. She says she will take him back to
the CIA. He says his agency is trying to prove that Israel murdered Youssef and his family. He
says he made a proposal to the general and someone killed him.
Tovah says they had nothing to do with it and he says it was the Russians. She asks if he has
proof and he says he has an officer in the field working on it and he expects to hear from her
soon. She knows it won’t be good if Israel is blamed and says she can give it until tomorrow. She
asks if he trusts this officer and he says with his life. She says that’s not a good policy in their
line of work.
Carrie is on line with Numan and he tells her how to connect the laptops and he tries to hack

30 days. He works. Otto stares at Carrie on the webcam. Back in Baghdad, we see Carrie and
Allison meet with Acrobat. Allison introduces Ahmed as their most valuable asset.
He tells Allison he won’t work with anyone else. Carrie asks him to sit and have tea and he
says he’s not a child to be tempted by cake. Allison asks him to sit and listen. Carrie says she
knows the risks he takes and Allison says she has a lot of experience. Ahmed says the army will
drill holes in his heads if he’s caught. Allison says she told him she would have to move on.
Ahmed tells Allison to change her orders and stay. He says he won’t work with Carrie. She
says maybe they can adjust the contract and offers more money. She says they want him to be
happy. She says his information saves lives. Ahmed says he doesn’t know her and can’t trust
her. He tells Allison if she wants the information, she stays. He walks out.
Carrie curses then asks Allison if he’s bluffing. She says he’s a lawyer who knows how to
negotiate and says give it a week. Quinn hears voices then sees men come out of the house and
drive away in a truck. He gets out and goes to the house and peeks inside. He sees a woman and
moves to the next window. He sees her bringing a tray of tea and he creeps around the corner.
He goes to the back of the house and sees some of the men watching TV and eating. He climbs
into the house and opens a box then finds steel cases and sees gas masks inside. He hears voices
and runs out of the house. Allison goes to the church and sits in the pew. She opens the hymnal
and leafs through it. She finds the note. She slips it into her purse after reading it.
She replaces the hymnal and sits quietly for a few moments. Back in Baghdad in the past,
Ahmed talks to Allison who tells her he doesn’t work for her but the United State. He touches her
hand and she asks what he’s doing. He says she knows why he meets with her. She says she’s
flattered and says their relationship is professional and important.
He says he doesn’t want to work with Carrie. Allison says she’s leaving in two weeks then asks
if he wants more money. He says he doesn’t need more money. He shows her a briefcase of cash
and she curses. She asks how he got it. He says they keep it in the basement of the Ministry and
says he takes a little every day. She says she has to report it.
He says it’s for them to share. He says he’s in love with her and wants them to be together.
Allison says no. He says he has five more suitcases like that at home — more than $8 million.
She thinks. Later, she walks in and Carrie goes after her. She finds Allison in her office and she
tells Carrie that he wants more money but will work with her.
Allison says he’s going to visit his sister and she can meet with him when he gets back in two
or three weeks. Allison drinks her whiskey. Now, she sits in the pew thinking when Ivan shows
up. He sits down and asks what. She says Carrie wants to meet her at a café in the village. He
says his team will be there. He says he changed his mind in case Carrie found a piece of the
puzzle to connect them to Ahmed.
He says they will be ready. Allison says he never tells her the whole truth and he says protecting her is his first priority. He says signal if Carrie knows and she says she’ll light a cigarette.
He says they’ll take care of Carrie if necessary. Allison comes out of the church and goes into the
village. Back in Baghdad, we see Allison pacing as Ahmed shows up late.
She kisses him then says not here. She says she’s leaving in three days. She tells him she’ll
ship out the money then hands him a ticket to Geneva and tells him what to do with the money
and says she’ll meet him in the West Indies in St Lucia. Ivan comes in and she curses. Ivan takes
her gun and tells Ahmed he can go now. Allison tells Ivan this proves nothing.
He says they caught her red-handed on camera and says she’s likely facing charges in federal
prison. He says she should listen to her proposal but she says she’s not a traitor. He says
Russian and American interests are more aligned than they have been in 70 years and says she
has nothing to lose by listening to him. He says he believes their countries should cooperate.
He says this will make the world safer. He says this spy game they play doesn’t have to be
one-sided. He says he can give her intelligence too. He says real intelligence that will advance
her in his career. He says this benefits them both. He says he means it and says years from now,
she could look back at this moment from a great height.
He says they can be professionals and help each other make it to the very top. He says the roof
of the world. Allison stares at him. He says he knows everything about her — her ambition and
how hard she’s worked. He says he knows what she’s thinking right now. He says she wonders
if the $8 million is for real and he says it is and says half will be hers.
He hands her back her gun and says that will take an edge off the uncertainty that frightens
her so. Ivan walks out. Now, Allison is in the village and looks around. She goes to some tables
183
Homeland Episode Guide
and sits at one. She pulls out her cigarettes and a lighter. She orders mineral water and waits.
Carrie is nearby at a fruit and veg stand and looks over at Allison.
Back in the day, we see Carrie looking at the news about an attack. The courthouse blew up
and Allison sys Acrobat is on the list of fatalities. She says at least the judge is okay since he
was on the way to a meeting. Now, Carrie looks around cautiously. The Russian sniper takes a
position in a high-up window. Allison gets her water and sips it as Carrie sits down.
She thanks Allison for coming then says her life is in danger. Allison plays dumb. Carrie says
the bomb in Lebanon was meant for her and another attack in Amsterdam. She says the thinks
the SVR wants her dead. She talks about the hack and says Samir demanded to speak to her in
a message about Ahmed being alive. She asks Allison if she ever questioned his intel.
Allison says his intel always checked out and she never suspected him of being a plant. She
says it’s always a possibility and Carrie asks her to go back and reveal her old field reports but
Allison says they’re classified. Carrie tears up and says — they’re trying to kill me. She says she
wants her life back and Allison says she’ll see what she can do if the hacked documents go away
for good.
She asks if Carrie is talking to anyone else about this. Allison reaches for her cigarettes. She
puts them back into her purse. Allison says she’ll be in touch and asks how to reach her. Carrie
says through Otto. Allison says watch your back then leaves. Carrie sighs. Quinn nods off in the
van but wakes as the truck comes back into the yard. He sees a mid-sized cargo truck has pulled
in.
He climbs out of the van cursing. The other guys come out and he asks what this is. They tell
him Bibi told him to stay out of sight. He says they can’t take weapons into Syria. They say they
have no weapons. One hits Quinn with a pipe and they pick him up. Bibi says they were never
going back to Syria. They’re going back to Berlin.
Etai wakes Saul and says — they’re coming. Etai says they have to go and Saul says he’s
going to take shit for this but Etai says he’ll survive. Quinn comes to and finds he’s tied up and
his mouth is taped. He sees a large drum of something dangerous in the back of the truck. Carrie
lies in bed when Numan skypes her and says he’s into Ahmend’s computer.
He asks what to look for and she says she doesn’t know then sees a screensaver pop up. She
looks at the photo and asks him to Google a bar in St Lucia called Banana Joes. He says he
doesn’t get it but she says just do it. He does. She thinks about Allison talking about St Lucia.
Numan says he’s got it and pops up a pic. It’s the same bar as the photo Ahmed is in. Carrie
says — oh my God, Allison.

The CIA and BND team up together to make a play. Carrie tries to
convince Saul that Allison is a double agent. Quinn refuses water from
his captors.
The episode begins with Carrie in the
car with Etai who drops her off to meet
Saul. Etai tells her that she broke Saul’s
heart when she opposed him being director. She says she wishes she was bringing
better news this time.
Etai leaves and she heads inside. Saul
watches from a window. Saul tells her to
get inside fast. She starts to cry and says
his name. He says come here and he embraces her. She fills Saul in on the link
between Allison and Ahmed.
He says it’s not definitive and doesn’t
buy it. Carrie says Ahmed was under suspicion for embezzling American money.
He asks why she thinks Allison is working
for the Russians. She says Allison tried
three times to kill her.
She says Allison had access to his kill box too. He says he’s still not convinced and says he
doesn’t want to be. He says this would mean the Russians have been inside US intelligence for
more than a decade and she says that’s why they have to know.
Quinn is in the back of the panel truck still as it pulls up to some derelict apartments. Bibi
and the guys open the truck and then open the compartment where they stashed him. They drag
him out and take him inside.
He hears power tools and sees work being done. There are canisters and rooms sealed by
plastic. He’s taken to a room and pushed to his knees then chained to the wall. They tape his
legs now too. One of them offers him a drink.

Quinn asks the guy if he knows the others are making sarin gas and says it’s a f-d up way to
die. He says it’s horrible. The guy says fine, no water and walks off. He tells the guy to Google
Ghouta, Syria and he can see it.
Saul and Carrie meet with the Germans, Adler and Astrid. He tells him they have a case
against Allison they need to prove. He says they need proof of her treason. Carrie says getting
her on tape is best. Saul says he can plant something on Allison.
Adler asks about Langley buy-in and Saul says they’re in no position to get CIA approval.
Adler asks why they should do this and Saul says if Allison is a Russian agent, they have as
much or more to lose as they do. Adler agrees to help.
Qasim watches the video that Quinn told him to. He’s horrified. Saul shows up unannounced
to Allison’s and closes the drapes. He says he couldn’t risk calling. She asks what’s going on. He
says he never heard from Carrie.
She asks if they’ll get the documents back. He says sit down so they can talk and she does.
He says he’s been offered asylum in Israel. She says that’s not what she heard. She says he ran
before they can hand him to the FBI.
He says he’s leaving for Tel Aviv and came to say goodbye. Allison says it makes him look
guilty and says he can’t be Mossad after all this. He says the SVR blew up the plane and Carrie
is trying to prove that. He says they won’t see each other again.
Allison says he’s being dramatic. He says maybe then says he’ll miss her. He says he was
asleep for 10 years and she woke him up. He beds her and after she falls asleep, he gets up. He
creeps downstairs and grabs her purse and phone.
He plugs a USB device into her phone and then plants a bug in her purse after slitting a seam
— he reglues it carefully. The phone is done and he plugs it back into her charger. He puts all
her things back and heads upstairs.
He gets back into bed and she asks if everything is okay. He says he needed a drink of water
and tells her to go back to sleep. She cuddles to his side and he holds her. Qasim looks around
at what’s going on and sees a plastic room and a camera.
Dr Aziz comes in and says it’s all right that he’s looking and says they got it almost right.
He asks if Aziz made this and he says he designed it. He asks Aziz what it is and he says it’s a
testing chamber to test the sarin.
He says the chamber is sealed and it they will have an antidote anyway that limits the effects
of the gas. Qasim asks about the camera then says Bibi is going to test it on Quinn though the
original plan was to take a Jew.
Astrid and Adler meet with Dar and Allison and talk about a defector from Russia who is high
up. Allison wants to know his name and Astrid says they can only have his code name Calico for
now. Adler says he wants $5 million to defect and give his info.
Astrid says the man wants to live in Boca Raton. They prattle to Dar about the Russian
man’s demands. They negotiate what the Americans and Germans will get from him. Allison is
distracted the excuses herself from the meeting.
Carrie and Saul listen to this all go down. They hear Allison panting nervously in her office.
She grabs up her purse and pulls out her phone. She sends a text that says change of plan — I
don’t feel like going out tonight.
The other person texts back if she wants him to bring dinner and offers Vietnamese or Italian.
She says pasta and he says she’s always in the mood. She texts back a devil face with horns
emoji. They wonder if it’s a code.
Quinn lies on the floor when Qasim comes in. He sits Quinn up and gives him a drink. He
thanks him. He also has fruit for him. He asks if Qasim went online and then says it’s hard to
watch and says they will kill innocents.
Qasim says terror is the necessary to a kalifate. He says if the West gives what they want,
Assad out of Syria, they won’t use it. They also want the UN to recognize them as a state. Quinn
says it won’t happen and he says they’ll send a warning.
He says they will send a demonstration of the weapon. Quinn says that’s why he’s still alive
and they’re building a test chamber. Quinn says they won’t give in and Qasim says it’s Allah’s
will but Quinn says the blood will be on his hands.
Then he says maybe it’s Allah’s will to stop this. He tells him to get rid of the DF so they can’t
make the sarin. He says dump the DF and walk away without looking back. They watch Allison
from cameras they planted. She’s pouring wine. There are two glasses.
186
Homeland Episode Guide
Saul says maybe she’s not what they thought since she’s not running. Astrid says it’s a civilian
she’s waiting for. Ivan shows up and says traffic was terrible. He takes off his jacket and says he
knows what she like and unpacks the food.
He kisses her neck and she moans. Ivan starts doing her against the counter and Saul turns
away. He walks out of the room — he can’t watch. Astrid is stunned Carrie doesn’t know. She
tells her that Saul and Allison were involved.
Carrie curses and goes after Saul. He tells her not to say anything. She asks if Allison is doing
this as a performance then asks if he gave her a heads up lover to lover. Saul says he didn’t and
apparently doesn’t know her at all.
Carrie says she’s been there and Saul says no. She asks if he believes she’s innocent and he
says he doesn’t know what to believe. Carrie says the BND won’t humor them much longer and
he says they can up the ante. She goes back to talk to Astrid.
Everyone is asleep while Qasim sits awake haunted. He creeps to the one room where the
tanks are and opens one. He sees it’s empty. Looks like it was already mixed. He sees canisters
in the test chamber. He tries the door but it’s locked.
Allison sits at an outdoor café and Astrid goes to meet her. She thanks Allison for meeting her
outside of the office then says Calico put his kids on the plane to Tallinn and wants the timetable
accelerated. She says he’s spooked.
She says he told them anywhere but Berlin for the handover and says it’s been penetrated.
She says he wouldn’t tell them what but she thought Allison should know. Allison is stunned.
Astrid says now she can get out in front of it.
Allison says he’s making this up to increase his value. Astrid says they’ll know soon enough
and says he’s promised to show them material that was passed to the SVR. She says he’s coming
across through Latvia to a safe house in Hamburg.
Astrid says she has to appear before a committee and can’t stay for lunch. She leaves. Allison
sits thoughtful for a moment and Carrie cheers quietly for her to make a move. Allison pulls out
her phone and makes a call.
She asks Nina for a train ticket to Copenhagen. She says reschedule her afternoon. The BDR
orders a team to be there at the station before her. She then makes a call and Carrie shushes
the room. There are a few beeps.
Carrie says it’s a call code and Saul agrees. She’s on the move. Allison walks down the street
looking around carefully then hails a cab. Allison takes out her SIM card and Carrie this is what
she’d be doing. Saul says he hopes the satellite transmitter works.
Allison gets out at the trains station. She looks around and there are two teams there watching
her. She isn’t getting on the Copenhagen train and is headed for the s-bahn inside (that’s a local
train). Allison is on the platform waiting.
She gets on the train then the door chimes. She looks around and gets back off at the last
moment. She walks away. She goes to the opposite platform. Astrid asks where she is and they
tell her she’s running. She’s going to Potsdam.
Astrid says they can shut the train down between stations and pull her of with dogs and
guns. Allison gets onto this train and looks around. She stays put. It’s in the country now. Astrid
makes a call and says Adler approved a warrant.
Saul says he thanks him. The train pulls into a station and she gets off. She heads upstairs
and they have drones watching her. She goes across the plaza and she grabs a key from under a
Volvo. She looks around then unlocks it.
She pulls out. The drones follow. She heads out of the small town and into the country past
fields of cows. She pulls off onto a smaller side road then an even smaller one. She pulls up to a
gate and enters a code.
The gate opens and then the GPS goes down. Carrie says it’s a dead zone and there must be
jamming towers. The drones can see her but they can’t hear her. Saul says they have to have
confirmation it’s SVR. Carrie panics.
Astrid shows them the house and there’s a man waiting. It’s Ivan. Astrid says he’s the SVR
Berlin station chief. Saul says to send in the team and arrest her now. Allison tells Ivan she’s
burned. He says she’s okay and takes her inside the house. He looks around.
Allison says one of the deputy chiefs is defecting with evidence that she’s a mole. He says it’s
impossible and she asks why. He says it doesn’t work that way. He says two chiefs have access
to the material and says both are fishing on the Kola Peninsula.
187
Homeland Episode Guide
He says it must be a misunderstanding. Then he curses and says she’s been played. An alarm
blares and Ivan is told that federal police have crashed the gate. Ivan tells his men to crash the
hard drives. Ivan says she led them here.
He curses and she says calm down. He says he’s very calm and asks how the f-k could she be
so careless. He curses at her in Russian. She slaps him and he grabs her face. She tells him to
stop and think. He says it’s over. She says think.
He says they’re done. He says we f-ing lost and she says they have not. She says to listen
carefully. The polizei pull up to arrest Allison. Ivan comes out with hands up and so does Allison.
They take them into custody.
Carrie and Saul watch on the drone feed. They are loaded into separate cars. The BDR shuts
down the surveillance. Saul looks stunned. Dar tells Carrie and Saul that’s quite a story. He says
they brought down the temple.
Saul says this explains a lot and says he didn’t want to believe it either. Dar says he’s disgusted with both of them. Astrid says Allison is in interrogation and Dar goes to talk to her. Ivan
is in another room. Carrie and Saul are left alone to watch.
Allison calls this a travesty and says some f-ing clown just tore apart 12 years of work. She
plays dumb and says ask Ivan himself when he asks her for names. Dar says Ivan has diplomatic
immunity. She says he can’t send Ivan back to Russia.
She says he’s been getting intel from Ivan for years. He asks why she ran today and she says
she didn’t run. She says she was told by Astrid about a mole in her station. She says she was
trying to fool his people, not hers.
She says she went to bring Ivan in and says she has done that. She says he’s been her Joe
for 12 years and says he can understand that. Dar ponders. Carrie and Saul look tense. Qasim
and the others come to get Quinn.
One holds a gun on him as they haul him up. They march him to the test chamber. Quinn
sees the camera on him. He sees the test chamber. Qasim says something in Arabic and cuts his
eyes. Quinn makes a run for it.
He’s tackled and as he’s done, Qasim stabs him with an antidote injection and whispers —
maybe you will live. Quinn is locked into the chamber. They turn on the gas. Quinn watches
through the door as Bibi turns it on.
Qasim steps back closer to the cameras. Quinn’s eyes starts to water and drool comes out
his mouth. His hands start seizing. He’s drooling uncontrollably. Snot comes out his nose by the
bucket and he collapses groaning in pain.

Right when Carrie and Saul start to think that they have some parts
of the situation under control, a new threat manages to emerge and
test their mettle once again.
The episode begins at the Berlin train station. One Arab man has a suitcase and
gets onto the elevator. He gets off and
leaves the suitcase — another Arab man
takes it. Carrie tells Dar that Allison is lying and says this story defies logic.
She says Peter was ambushed and
the operation was foiled. He says Ivan is
singing like a songbird and Carrie says
this is all a Hail Mary. Dar says Allison
has been a great operative and Carrie
says the Russian information was carefully curated.
Dar tells Carrie she needs to go. Saul
promises to call her as Dar kicks her out.
Dar then asks Saul what he thinks. He
says Allison owned them. Dar says maybe
then says Ivan has confirmed the SVR that brought down Yousef’s plane and says he and Etai
are off the hook.
Dar says a Russian penetration at this level would be a scandal that could take down the
agency. He says they can send Allison back to Langley and turn her over to counter-intelligence.
Saul wants another shot at her for what she’s done to him.
He says if they can get a confession they can run her back on the Russians. Astrid tells Carrie
she also doesn’t buy Allison’s story. Carrie says at least she can chuck out the wig. She says she
needs to find Quinn and tells Astrid he went missing.
She says he disappeared — no ER, no morgue. She tells her the address of the garage they
were at and Astrid says she’ll check security cameras nearby. Quinn is in the test chamber and
he’s foaming at the mouth.
The camera man says they need more for Bibi to get the message across. At the CIA, Saul
goes into the room where Allison is held. She says, so? Saul takes off his coat and says he has
questions. She says okay.
189
Homeland Episode Guide
He says she seems angry and says he should be angry. She says he’s the angriest man she’s
ever known and it made her curious. Saul sits. Dar watches this all. Saul says she recruited Ivan
in Iraq and she claims to have reported it to Estes.
Saul says that’s convenient since he’s dead. Saul asks what Estes did with the info and she
says she doesn’t know but he decided to keep the circle small. She says it wasn’t her call. He
asks if she told someone else after Estes died.
She says she protected he source and reported his intel as coming from other sources. Saul
stands and she asks if that’s it. Saul says nothing in her life will be easy from now on — he says
he will see to this. He says she tried to have Carrie killed.
He says butchered agents in Cairo was her too then asks about her Kiev deputy getting a
bullet in the face. He slams her against the wall and says she betrayed them all. He puts his
hands around her neck and calls her a f-ing sociopath.
Dar hauls him out the goes to check on Allison. She says she’s okay as Dar calls for a doctor.
Otto talks to Jonas who shows him a list of requirements from Carrie. Laura says Faisal Mahrwan
is here — he’s one of the guys who just got out of prison.
She says he owned a cell phone shop and was locked up as a suspected terrorist. She says
Faisal is nervous. Laura says she promised the foundation would cover his legal fees and Otto
says that’s fine. Laura and Jonas meet with him and videotape it.
He says his life was destroyed and he was a good citizen. He says he obeyed laws and says
Germany let him down. Jonas thanks him. They finish the deposition and Laura says they can
try and make sure this doesn’t happen to anyone else again.
The camera guy steps out and Faisal asks if it’s enough to win. Jonas says absolutely and
says the government’s lawyers will respond. He says they will question him too and it might be
hostile. Jonas says they will ask if he knows any radical Islamists.
Jonas says 23 Jihadists bought phones from him and shows him that Zayid bought five
phones from him. He says he doesn’t know him or talk to him. Laura says trying to hide you
know someone looks bad. He admits to knowing Zayid.
Jonas says the government will know if he hung out with the man because of cameras in the
prison. He says he was with them for protection. Jonas asks if he heard them talking Jihad and
he says they talked about Syria all the time.
He says he listened, didn’t talk. He says her heard about an attack in Berlin, but mostly Syria.
Jonas asks what kind of attack in Berlin. Faisal says he doesn’t know and Jonas asks when it
will happen. He insists he doesn’t know.
He says maybe it was just big talk. Laura and Jonas share a look. Faisal asks if this will hurt
his case. Laura says no because he told them. Jonas says now they know, they can deal with it.
He says his case is still strong.
Faisal says he wants to leave and Laura goes to arrange a ride. Jonas thanks him for coming
in and shakes his hand. Laura walks Faisal out and says Gunter will drive him home. She tells
him to call if he needs anything.
She promises to call soon. He goes and Jonas come to Laura and she says it was meaningless
jailhouse chatter but he says it must be reported. She asks if Otto is still there and he says he’s
gone til tomorrow. She says it can wait until then and he agrees.
Carrie goes to the garage where she last saw Quinn and looks around. She sees a gun out of
place in a case and then her phone buzzes. Astrid tells her to get to a TV now. Carrie goes to a
bar and sees the film of Bibi playing. Bibi makes demands wearing a mask.
Armed men are behind him and he says they have 24 hours to recognize their Islamic state.
He plays the footage of Quinn being exposed to sarin gas. He says this will happen to everyone if
they don’t comply. Carrie collapses then gets up and runs out.
She’s sickened. Dar goes to see Saul who is being kept in a room. He asks if he saw the video.
Saul has phone in hand and says it’s unbelievable. Dar asks if they can tell the Germans Peter’s
name. Saul says that’s fine.
Dar says, come on. They go to the BND ops center and they hear that they are rounding up
the usual suspects and are following up on all leads. Dar says the victim is one of theirs and has
penetrated a terror cell in Berlin recently.
He says they were supposed to be on the way to Syria and he was going with them. It’s the
Deputy Emir. Dar says the masked man may be his nephew. Dar goes to talk to Allison at her
request. She’s still being held. She asks if it was sarin gas.
190
Homeland Episode Guide
She says they killed one man and may not have enough for a mass attack. Dar and Allison go
to talk to Ivan to ask about Syrian’s chemical weapon stockpile. He says Assad’s materials were
removed and destroyed.
Dar asks if the Islamic state could get their hands on it. Allison says there’s a threat. Ivan
says an airbase in Syria was overrun six months ago and their intelligence confirmed chemical
agents were being kept there — some were the components of sarin.
He says there was at least six. Allison says that much will be catastrophic. She asks if she’s
under arrest and he says it’s just an open question. Allison says he can’t sideline her now. She
says she’s not who Saul says and even if she was, no one wants another Paris.
She says she can help stop this. The Jihadists talk about the sarin gas they’ll placed in the
train tunnels. Qasim and the others are given assignments and told they will leave two hours
before the deadline. He tells them to give their phones to Utku who will dump them in the river.
Bibi asks his cousin Qasim if he’s anxious and he says the government might give in but
Bibi says they won’t. He says soon they will realize that denying them will cost too much. Qasim
hands over his phone too. Carrie lurks outside waiting on Saul.
She asks who this group is and he says it’s a Berlin cell that was recently released from prison
and Quinn fell in with them. She says Quinn was terribly injured. He says it wasn’t live so the
film was made in the last few days. Carrie asks to see the full version.
She says Quinn might be signaling and she might notice something. Astrid says she can use
the help. Saul agrees and says she saw Allison with Dar and she curses. He agrees it’s bad.
Astrid brings Carrie with her. She watches the Quinn video.
Astrid warns her it’s rough. Carrie’s chin trembles as she watches Quinn start to drool and
quiver as the gas takes over then he collapses to his knees. He throws up and grunts. Carrie
turns away. She looks back and Astrid takes her hand.
He’s on the floor twitching then he goes still. Carrie sobs. His throat is still moving. The last
shot looks like he’s dead. Carrie has her run it back then points out the floor tiles. Carrie wipes
away tears and says run it again. They restart it.
At the Berlin CIA station, the CIA chief asks how they can get a message to the leader. Dar
tells Joe they can’t stop this without more info. Joe says they’re making a statement at 9 am and
won’t notify them that the target is Berlin.
Saul asks why and Joe says they can’t send the city into mass panic and calls it the new
normal. He ends the call. Allison comes in and says they found Bibi is the Emir’s nephew and
may be the leader. He’s had no cell service for over a year.
They are checking his photo on CCTV. Saul won’t speak to her and walks out. Jonas tells
Laura and Otto they should let the police talk to Faisal but Laura spots this. Jonas says they are
culpable if Berlin is hit and they knew ahead of time.
Jonas tells Laura they saw the video and says they can’t let thousands die like that. Laura
says her country was attacked like that and then they started two wars and thousands more
died on both sides. She says this goes on and on.
Jonas says nice speech but it has nothing to do with this. Laura says Muslim men are already
being rounded up. She says she got Faisal out just in time. Otto asks where he is and she says
he’s here. Otto asks for a minute to think.
Laura wants to push more but he insists she leave too. He calls Saul who says he’s busy. Otto
says they do outreach work with Muslim communities. He says he has someone who may have
information and asks for word that he’ll be treated fairly.
He says the man was treated wrongly. He says he must have a promise that he won’t be
arrested and his lawyer can be present the whole time. Saul says please bring him in and Otto
agrees. Bibi is told that someone tried to save Quinn and Utku shows him atropine tube.
Bibi says they can’t get through with this until they find out the leak. He tells Utku to keep
this quiet. He says leave the man in the chamber and says he’ll still die, just leave him there. He
says they can’t go in or the gas will leak out.
Carrie sits shocked and Astrid tells her not to be hard on herself for them not finding anything.
She gives her a coffee and says he didn’t have enough time to send a signal. Carrie says Quinn
told her to leave it alone and get out of Berlin.
She regrets not listening. Astrid says Quinn always did what he wanted to do and says he was
a pain in the ass and stubborn as a mule. She says he was beautiful too. A guy comes in and
says the floor tiles are distinctive but there are 1500 buildings that used the artist’s work.

Carrie says put them on a map and says they can use a JSOC algorithm. He says they have
ATM activity for the guy from three months ago. They pull up confirmed sightings and the put
up the buildings on the map. They run the algorithm.
They are down to seven square kilometers. Astrid goes to take it to Adler to set up search
teams. Bibi tells the Jihadists to lay out their hazmat packs. They line up and drop their packs.
He says the American is alive just barely.
He says one of them gave him atropine. He says Utku found it in the trash and shows them
the vial. He says they have to find out who did this. They start searching their hazmat packs.
Qasim’s vial is there but Zaheer’s is missing.
He begs Bibi to listen and says it wasn’t him. Bibi pulls a gun on him and he swears he
wouldn’t betray them. He begs Bibi to stop. Bibi tells him to say it and he says something in
Arabic. It’s a prayer before dying. Bibi shoots him in the head before Qasim can speak up.
The others are stunned. Bibi says finish packing, we’re on a schedule. Jonas and Faisal get
into a car and Laura doesn’t like it. Back SUV’s pull up and the German police grab him. The
BND takes him as Faisal screams they told him he wouldn’t be arrested.
They mention Saul’s name, but the BND is gone with him in 30 seconds. Allison paces smoking with her minder out front. A woman with a dog walks by and gives them a look. The guard,
Con, says he doesn’t believe what they said about her.
The woman with the dog gives her a signal and Allison signals back. The woman moves on.
Astrid and Carrie pull up at the barracks for their part of the search. Astrid tells Carrie half the
locations have been cleared. They get out — they’re at the right place!
Atrid and Carrie poke around and head upstairs of one of the barracks. Astrid whispers to
her and Carrie comes over. They spot fresh blood on a floor and Astrid calls it in. There are drag
marks and Carrie follows them. She finds plastic sheeting.
Carrie says it’s not Peter’s body and unwraps it. It’s the guy Bibi just shot. Astrid snaps a pic
of his face and Carrie rushes through the place. She sees the chamber. Peter is still in it. She
kneels down by the glass and Astrid makes another call for a Hazmat team.
Carrie sobs and Astrid looks away. Peter’s finger moves and Astrid says it’s impossible. She
shines the light in his eyes and they blink. Astrid makes another call for a team to come urgently.
Bibi and his men are on the move.
Qasim is up front with Bibi who asks if he has something to say to him. He says he thought
his faith would keep him strong and Zaheer paid for his mistake. He says he switched the kit
because Qasim is family and Zaheer was not.
He tells Qasim that was his last chance and he’d better not step out of line again. Quinn is in
the hospital now and is intubated. Carrie sits at his side — Saul shows up. He sits down by her
quietly. They watch Quinn’s machines breathe for him. Neither speaks.

Carrie’s got herself a new lead to follow and may be forced to wake up
Quinn who is confined in the hospital. There is plenty of panic when
Quinn’s life is put into potential danger.
The episode starts at the hospital where
Quinn is recuperating in Landstuhl, Germany. The doctor’s tell Carrie and Saul
that the atropine saved his life, but he’s
still in failure. Saul says they need him
awake but the doctor says he’s in a coma
fighting for his life.
Saul says Quinn has vital information
that can help thwart a potential terrorist
attack. Carrie asks if they can wake him
up and what risks are there. The doctor
says he could suffer a cerebral hemorrhage or death if they try to wake him.
They tell the doc to run the tests to
see if he can be woken. The suitcase of
sarin is wheeled down a train access tunnel. One of the jihadists opens the case
and pulls out the distribution device. He sets it up and then activates the device.
Allison argues that this is a waste of time as she leaves to do something that Dar has told her
to do with her monitor accompanying her. She grabs a ”ticket” off her dash and says the meter
maids from hell monitor around their office.
193
Homeland Episode Guide
You know that had to be a message from her traitor network. She goes to use the bathroom
and her monitor waits outside. Allison goes into a stall, locks the door and plugs in earbuds then
grabs the ticket left for her and a flash drive falls out.
She listens to what’s on it. When it’s done, she takes out the flash drive and flushes it away.
A woman is there at the sink — Erna Richter — who is part of the SVR network and works at the
German Foreign Office. Allison says someone there has lost her mind.
She says she won’t do it and doesn’t even know where to start. Erna says Aman Aziz is
involved and they have an eye on him. Allison asks why they did nothing to stop it. She asks how
she gets to him without drawing attention to herself.
Erna says this is her last assignment. She says Allison is damaged goods and can’t be in the
field. She says they can’t trust the access she’ll be given access to after this and says the Kremlin
can’t want this attack to go forward. Erna says make sure it goes off.
Allison says this is obscene and Erna says radical Islam must be eradicated and says only the
US President doesn’t see this. Erna says do it or you lose all your money and go to jail in Russia
or the US. Erna walks out and Allison gathers herself.
She joins the meeting about the terror attack. Dar takes over the meeting and says they
identified Bibi this morning and found out his background and just how dangerous he is. Saul
and Carrie have Quinn woken from his coma against doctor’s advice.
They take out his breathing tube and try to bring him out. The doctor says they will know
quickly if it will work. Carrie gets close and asks if he can hear her and tells him to open his
eyes. She says come to the surface. She says she’s there waiting for him.
His brainwaves begin to improve. The doctor yells at him and his eyes open. Carrie says tell
me what the target is. They give Quinn some epi and his eyes come open again. She asks where
will the attack be? He whispers and then spits up goo.
He goes into distress and they start working on him to try and save his life. One of the jihadists
is struggling to get the device to activate so they can trigger it remotely. Bibi says he can take it
to Dr Aziz to look at.
They want to go see Aziz but most of them are on the watchlist. He pulls Qasim aside since
he’s not on the watchlist. He tells him to take it to Aziz then bring it right back. Qasim asks why
he’s trusting him and Bibi says he trusts that he loves his mother.
He tells him where to find Aziz. The doctor tells Saul and Carrie that they stabilized him and
says trying to wake him didn’t do him any favors. They thank the doctor. Saul says he has to
leave and Carrie says someone treated Quinn’s gunshot wound surgically.
She says there’s a good Samaritan out there who helped and says she can run it down. Saul
agrees and says check in often. Otto calls about Faisal and says he was arrested and shoved into
a car and his lawyer can’t even access him.
Saul says this is a major event and says he didn’t tell the BND what to do but he had to let
them know they were bringing Faisal in and they acted. He says he expects Saul to make this
right and says he trusted him because Carrie does.
Saul agrees to go to the BDN and try to make things right. Otto updates Laura then says they
still have three hours til the deadline and tells her to keep a low profile. She asks if that’s a gag
order. He says show some sensitivity in a difficult time.
She says it’s hard on Faisal and Otto reminds her that her reputation and the Foundation’s is
on the line. She says she gets it. Laura opens her safe and makes a call from a phone she keeps
there. She calls Numan and she asks if he got the documents from Carrie’s laptop.
He says he got them all and she never knew. She tells him if anything happens to her, release
them all She says if she’s arrested or whatever. He asks what’s going on and she says nothing.
Numan asks what she’s planning and she says it’s better he doesn’t know.
She says don’t vet them, just dump them and then wipe it all clean so there’s no trace. He
says okay and she thanks him. Astrid shows Dar a profile on Zaheer, the body they found with
Quinn. They discuss that he’s a university student.
Allison says she can reach out to them — that’s her excuse to be on campus to talk to Aziz.
Carrie goes to see Al-Amin. The woman who answers the door says she doesn’t know anyone by
that name. Carrie says she’s not the cops and won’t make trouble.
He comes to the door and tells Carrie come inside quickly. He asks who’s coming for her then
he threatens to kill her. His wife leaves with the kids just in case. Carrie says she needs some
info about the terror cell. He says he’s not part of that.
194
Homeland Episode Guide
He says he doesn’t know who they are and says now is not the time to rally the world against
Muslims and would tell them to stand down. Carrie says these people are zealots and he calls
the jihadists idiots and scum.
She tells him she’s looking for a doctor near Kreuzberg who might know something. He asks
why should he help? Carrie says she doesn’t know but he’s done the right thing before, lost a
son, more fathers will lose their sons if they don’t stop this...
Al-Amin says he knows a man like that and says he sees refugees in his apartment, poor
patients that can pay very little. He says the man is no jihadi and Carrie asks his name. He says
Hussein. Astrid asks Saul how Peter is doing.
He says he came out of the coma briefly and tried to say something. Saul says it doesn’t look
good and says the damage is extensive. She takes him to see Faisal. He asks why they pulled
him and Astrid says they thought During might pull something at the last minute.
Faisal is hooked to a polygraph machine and they are monitoring his biometrics. Saul says
the guy looks scared. She says the interrogator changed things up. Saul asks to speak to him
and she says Adler won’t like it. He asks if Adler needs to know.
He says put his clothes on him and fix him a hot cup of tea and let them talk in an office.
Qasim is on campus lurking near Aziz’s housing apartment. He sees him and goes to his place
with Qasim following. They go inside his apartment.
He tells Qasim that he can’t be there but he says Bibi sent him because the signal isn’t
transmitting. Aziz says he gave Utku the directions. Aziz looks at what Utku wrote down then
goes to his desk. Aziz says he has to run a diagnostic.
Qasim texts Bibi to update him. Saul tells Faisal he just needs to cooperate but the man says
he’s answered all the questions. Faisal says he was in prison with just one of them and Saul says
he sold cell phones to the others.
He says you must have heard something. He says he heard four words — Berlin is the target.
He says anything else will be made up but he can make up something false if he wants. Saul
says — you knows what to do then says — think and remember.
He tells him to try harder but Faisal says he doesn’t know. Saul says if the attack goes off, no
one can protect him. Astrid tells Saul to step out and see something. Saul says this will become
a strictly German matter and you know what that means. He shuts the door.
Laura is on TV talking about Faisal’s ”arrest” and says he wasn’t arrested but was rounded
up. Laura says why can’t he be reached and says he was illegally imprisoned once before and
now this. The news anchor says sometimes the state is justified in extraordinary measures.
Laura says she has seen her country and his violate human rights and its Constitution.
Jonas and Otto watch. Laura says this hasn’t helped and it’s made things worse. Laura says
there should be respect for the rule of law.
Laura says everyone is scared and she is too. She says that shouldn’t make you forget who
you are. Laura says she knows she can’t win this argument then says if she can’t speak to Faisal
immediately, she will release all the docs from the CIA hack.
Saul sighs and says f-k you. She says the foundation is not involved in any way and it’s just
her. The anchor asks if she’s worried about retaliation. She says she is but the docs will be
released regardless. They call for an ad break before the interview resumes.
Astrid says she has to talk to Adler while Saul talks to Faisal. The window is open in the room
Saul goes into. Faisal jumped. Saul looks sickened. Astrid looks out and sees his broken body
on the sidewalk below and curses.
Saul sits down and takes off his glasses. Astrid says the Laura problem just got worse. Saul
says you deal with Laura, I’ve had enough for one day. Qasim asks Aziz if he has kids and asks
how many. He says he has a son who lives with his mother in Lebanon.
Qasim asks how long he’s lived in Berlin and he says three years. He asks if Aziz is conflicted
about doing this. He says this country took Aziz in and treated him well. Aziz says this country
supports the state of Israel even when they bombed the shit out of Lebanon.
He says after that Germany sent troops to defend Israel against a possible counter-attack.
He tells Qasim he’s an atheist and is not doing this for Mohammed. He tells Qasim he has to go
when there is a knock on the door.
He says to tell Bibi that he has to activate the machine manually and puts him out a side
door. Allison is at the door. She introduces herself and Conrad then says they’d like to talk to
him about Zaheer. She says he’s dead then asks if they can come inside.
195
Homeland Episode Guide
Carrie goes to Hussein’s building and sees the line of people waiting. Carrie tells the woman
who answers the door that she’s from the During Foundation. The woman says she has to wait
her turn. Allison asks Aziz about Zaheer.
He says he was his advisor and he saw him now and then in class and office hours. Conrad
pokes around the place and Aziz asks him to stop going through his things. Allison says the man
was shot in the face. Aziz says he has no idea.
Allison says they found his body in the same place the video was filmed. She asks if he knows
about Zaheer’s extremist views then his own. She says there’s a WMD attack and he has expertise
in this technology. She asks what’s the target.
Allison asks Conrad for his gun and tells him to call for an arrest team. He hands it over.
Allison asks again what’s the target and says he has five seconds. She shoots Conrad again then
Aziz tells her Hauptbahnhof Station platform 7.
Allison tells him to stop whimpering. She shoots him too. She looks around and then throws
down the gun and grabs her phone. She repositions Aziz’s body a bit and kicks over her purse.
Then she calls Astrid and says help, I’ve been shot.
She ends the call. Allison paces then checks her collar bone and shoots herself carefully.
She curses in pain. She staggers over to Aziz and puts the gun in his hand. She lies down near
Conrad’s body and groans as the pain worsens.
Hussein tells Carrie that Quinn was nearly dead but trying to drown himself when he found
him. He says Quinn fought hard to survive and she says that sounds like him. He asks his name
and says he never told her. She tells him Peter Quinn.
He says he saw him on television and says the world has gone mad. Carrie asks where are
the men who did this to him. He says he and his children will be killed if they knew he talked.
She says he doesn’t have to come forward, just tell him.
He says he thought they were on the way to Syria and that’s the last he knew. Hussein says
one had an apartment downstairs where they met. She asks to see it. He takes her to it as Astrid
and the team kick in the door to Aziz’s place and find Allison alive and the others dead.
She says the attack is the BER, the airport, at 5 o’clock. Bibi, Utku and Qasim talk and Bibi
says he can wear protective gear and release it manually. Qasim says they’re looking for him but
Bibi says it’s Allah’s will and they need to finish what they started.
Carrie calls Saul and says send a forensics team here. She says the guy was obsessed with
Hauptbahnhof. She says the U-Bahn may be the target and he says BER is the target. He says
they’re already evacuating.
Carrie asks when this happened and he says they just found out. Saul says as long as they
get everyone out, it’s good. She asks if he’s sure and he says it better be. She asks him to let her
know when they find something.
Saul ends the call and ponders. Dar comes over and he asks where Allison was taken for her
gunshot wound. He tells him the hospital. Carrie looks around the apartment and sees a photo
of Bibi and Qasim. Qasim is shaving in preparation so they look less Islamic.
Carrie goes to the Hauptbahnhof anyway. She looks around. Carrie looks again at the photo
she took and then around. She checks the arrival and departure board then takes an escalator
down. Allison tells the nurse she can’t have surgery now.
She says she’s a cop and has to be available and alert. Saul shows up and the nurse leaves.
He asks if she’s okay then says the terminal is clear. He asks about her encounter with Aziz. He
asks if he told her a specific area.
He asks if the weapon is on an incoming flight. She says Conrad searched the place and found
a laptop and some papers. He asks if there’s anything else and she says there wasn’t a lot of time.
She says Aziz got hold of Conrad’s gun.
He asks how that happened. Another doctor comes in and says that he needs to clean and
repack her wound. A clean shaven Bibi and Qasim get to the Hauptbahnhof. Utku is there too.
All three are clean shaven.
Carrie is on a platform and looks around. She walks side to side and asks for the security
office. She’s pointed up the stairs. Utku shuts the gates and secures it with a padlock then walks
away. They do it at the other end as well.
Carrie is upstairs and then sees Qasim coming down the escalator. She studies his face then
the photo and texts Saul. Her message doesn’t go through and she curses. She asks a man to go
up and says can yo please take this phone up where there’s signal.
196
Homeland Episode Guide
She says the attack is happening here. The guy calls her crazy. Carrie can’t get anyone to
listen. Qasim shuts the gates of the next place. A woman in Muslim garb is there and he lets her
out. Then a man has a child and he relents again.
Finally Qasim walks through without chaining it. Carrie gets a woman to take her phone up
and she goes running off towards the terminal. She spots the unchained door and races onward.
She is looking for Qasim.
A woman says someone just ran into the tunnel and Carrie pulls a gun and goes after her.
Saul waits for the doctor to finish packing Allison’s wound. He gets Carrie’s text. Saul goes back
and sees that Allison is gone from the wound.
Saul asks where she went and the nurse has no idea. Saul runs out in a panic.

There’s no time left, as Carrie tries to stop a terrorist attack; she finds
a ticking bomb filled with sarin gas, waiting to explode somewhere at
a train station in Berlin. Carrie will chase Qasim down a dark tunnel
and beg him to stop the attack.
The episode begins with Carrie heading into the subway tunnel after Qasim,
gun drawn. He hits her with a pipe and
presses her against the wall. He tells her
to be quiet or they will both die. He asks
who she is and she says American intelligence.
She says the Federal Police are on
their way and asks what the plan is and
calls him by name. She says Dr Hussein
told her his name. She asks again where
the weapon is and says she thinks he’s
having second thoughts. He says with
Bibi deeper in the tunnel.
He says it’s the next train that will be
hit — that’s four minutes. She looks down
the tunnel and then asks if Bibi has a gun
and Qasim says maybe yes. She tells Qasim to take her gun and shoot him when he gets close.
He says that’s his cousin. She says thousands will die if he does not.
He says he will try and talk him out of it and Allah will help him find the words. She tells
Qasim to go try and she creeps slowly behind him. Qasim calls out to Bibi and he tells Bibi the
police are here and they know. Bibi tells him they’ll both die now.
Qasim says they can leave and go with Utku and the others. Bibi tells him go save himself
but Qasim says no. He tells Bibi he’ll have to kill him. Bibi does. Carrie sees him shot and she
runs to try and stop Bibi who is wrestling with Qasim who is still trying to stop him.

Homeland Episode Guide
Carrie shoots at them both and the device does not go off. She comes closer and sees it says
system is on standby. Qasim is choking on blood and Carrie tells him help I son the way and he
did it — he stopped the attack. She asks if he saved Quinn.
She thanks him and then he’s gone. Carrie says an Islamic prayer for him as he passes. She
sighs. Outside the Bahnhof there is a ton of police and Saul approaches her and checks on her.
She’s upset and he asks what happened. She says Qasim stopped Bibi.
He says he saved her and everyone else. She’s near tears and struggling to maintain her
composure. She asks about the rest of the group and she says Allison sent them the wrong way.
He asks if she’s in custody and he says she got away.
Carrie says she just wants to go home. Saul says he’ll find someone to drive her. She thanks
him as he makes the call. Carrie goes back to her apartment where she hasn’t been in a while.
She calls out for Jonas. She walks around the apartment looking around.
Carrie checks the closet and sees clothes hanging. She pulls off her jacket and lies down in
bed. Saul goes to talk to Ivan and tells him the charade is over. He shuts down the camera and
says he’s now his confessor. He asks if Ivan is over 50 and he says 52.
Saul says Allison was his life’s work then asks who’s idea it was to seduce him then says he’d
rather not know. Saul says the boys must not have told him — Ivan asks what. Saul says the
chemical attack was thwarted and Allison is in the wind.
Ivan says he’s lost him. Saul says Allison was ordered by his bosses to help the attack go
forward but she failed then disappeared. Saul says Ivan is burned and will take the fall. He says
Allison means that Ivan is not a defector, Allison is a Russian agent and a traitor.
Saul says this has so many moving parts. He sits down and smiles and says he knows he’s
right. Ivan smirks. He says even if he believes him, what do you want? Saul says he wants her
back and punished. Saul says he would know in his position.
Ivan tries to stick to his cover story. Saul says with all due respect, he’s playing a bad hand.
Saul sits back and says he heard he was a downhill ski racer. He offers him witness protection
in Jackson Hole, Wyoming and says he guesses he has no kids.
Saul says the SVR is turning its back on him. Ivan smiles and says it’s a good pitch. He says
he admires it. Saul says he came this close to painting a masterpiece and says not many people
can say that. He says he won’t make another offer like this.
He says this offer is one-time and only because he wants Allison. He tells Ivan take it or leave
it. Ivan thinks and doesn’t agree. Saul says it’s a shame and says he would have enjoyed talking
to him again. Ivan says it was his idea.
Saul turns back. Ivan says Saul was an easy target for Allison to romance since he’s middle
aged and easily divorced. He says he knew if he was sleeping with Allison, he wouldn’t see
other things so clearly. Saul asks where is she and how are they planning on getting her out of
Germany?
Allison is taken to a safe house — she’s still hurting from her self-inflicted gunshot wound.
She’s put into a room and a doctor comes to check on her. She says her pain meds are wearing
off. He sits her at a table and says his name is Dr Rudolf.
She asks how long she will be there and he says until things calm down out there. He says
he was told to give her first-class treatment and says she must be very important. She says she
is and he better not f-k up her shoulder or she’ll make sure he never operates again.
Otto tells Laura the BND is there to arrest Laura. Astrid serves and says she has threatened
the state of Germany and is in violation of the Foreign Residency Act. Anders Larsen comes in
and starts hacking her safe. Astrid says they’re sending her back to the US and the FBI.
Otto says there will be consequences but Laura kicks him out of the office. She tells the
hacker who got into the safe to try and find anything on Gabe H Coud. Carrie wakes to Jonas
sitting at her side. He says the BND has Laura and won’t let him see her.
Carrie says she didn’t know where else to go. He asks if she heard about the attack. He says
there was a big shoot out and they got the rest of the terror cell. She says it feels like forever
since she’s seen him.
Jonas agrees it seems like a long time since he’s seen her. She kisses him and tells him to
take off his shirt. He does. He asks what happened to her hand when he sees the bandage. She
says nothing. Numan sits waiting in a park — he looks around with caution.
He sees people that make him nervous and stands up to leave. Men approach and then the
BND is on him. They knock him to the ground and arrest him. Carrie is looking at some books
200

that Franny likes and says she wanted to take some of them with her.
He asks if the danger is done and she says she’s safe now. He asks what happened today and
says it’s all over the internet about a mysterious blonde in the Hauptbahnhof tunnel with a gun
then asks if that was her. Carrie nods and says — me.
Jonas tells her she can keep the shirt and she asks if they’re just saying goodbye and says
they were all happy. She asks why that can’t go on. She says she wants another chance and they
can do better. Jonas says sorry and it’s not easy for him.
He says he loves her and Franny but she can’t put things back the way they were. He says he
can’t unsee what he saw. He says he can’t be worried about what’s around the next corner and
can’t have his kids worrying him.
He says what happened to his son can’t ever happen again. He says this will never work and
was crazy from the start. She says she’s not crazy and went off her meds for a reason. Carrie
says it was crazy that she opened up and let him in.
She says she loved him and he comes to embrace her but she says no, she doesn’t want that.
Carrie goes to the hospital looking for Quinn and sees the room a mess. She runs out saying no
— she asks a nurse where he is.
The nurse tells her to calm down then says he had a severe aneurysm and will be in surgery
for several more hours. Carrie asks for the chapel instead of the waiting room and the nurse
shows her where it is. Carrie sits and tries to breathe.
A woman is singing to her daughter in one of the pews — a song about Jesus. The girl looks
back at Carrie who is trying not to break down. Later, Carrie is alone in the chapel. The doctor
finds her there- Dr Emory. He asks to sit with her.
He says Quinn is out of surgery and says the hematoma was large and they had to do a
craniotomy. He says they don’t know if he’ll recover but she says he must know. He says if he
does recover, he will still have significant brain damage.
Carrie asks to see him and the doctor takes her there. Carrie goes to his room and sees he’s
on a ventilator. Carrie looks at him and she asks if they did this to him. Four days later, Carrie
is sitting in a cabin by the water.
Astrid goes into an interview room where they’re holding Laura. Laura says she thought she
forgot about her. Astrid says she has three true things to tell her — she says Faisal Marwan is
dead and says he jumped out of a fifth story window.
Laura accuses her of throwing him out but Astrid says he jumped. She says they made a
mistake leaving him alone, but did not kill him. She says Numan is in the next cell. She says
they have his laptop and recovered the hacked documents and Laura now has no leverage.
Laura sighs and Astrid offers to show her. Astrid says Laura has abused her position in
Germany and Laura asks why she’s still here. Astrid says many of the others would like to see
her rotting in Super-Max. She says it’s Numan they’re interested in.
She says Numan has only temporary asylum and is up for review every six months. Laura
says he’s an enemy of the state back in Turkey and Astrid says it’s up to her. Laura says they
will execute him if he’s sent back. Astrid says she must do what she’s told or else.
Quinn is off the ventilator and Dar sits snoring lightly in a chair by the bed. Carrie comes into
the room and sees Dar. She gets some crème and puts it on Quinn’s lips so they won’t chap then
pulls up another chair and sits close.
She rubs lotion into his hand tenderly and massages it. Dar asks the prognosis as he wakes.
Carrie says unchanged and Dar says it’s not a good sign that he hasn’t woken up. Carrie says
they may change his status soon to minimally conscious.
She says that means his odds of recovering cognitive function are very low. Dar says that
would be Peter’s worst nightmare and says they found him in a foster home in Baltimore at 16.
He says they needed a street wise kid who was pretty enough to turn heads.
He says Quinn was a natural from the start then he sponsored him for training and says
he was the youngest ever through the program. Dar hands her an envelope. He says she was
Quinn’s beneficiary in case anything happened to him in Syria.
It’s an envelope with her name on it written in Quinn’s hand. Dar says he wanted to give it
to her now since he wasn’t sure when he’s see her again. Carrie reads the letter which says he
must have died and they never happened.
He says he doesn’t believe in fate or destiny and then Saul interrupts her reading when he
comes into the room. He asks to talk to her outside. Saul asks Carrie if she’s given more thought

to what he offered. He says the director will offer her complete autonomy.
She says she’s still not interested and Saul asks why. She says she’s not that person anymore
and he reminds her she just saved hundreds of lives and says this world would be different
today. He says she’s being selfish. He says she knows how to fight these guys.
Carrie says she has no idea and Saul says, help me come up with a new paradigm. Carrie
sighs and says she’s going back in with Quin now. Saul curses then says he needs her. She says
she’s just not that person anymore. She walks away.
Erna tells Allison it’s time to go and she hopes her stay there has been comfortable. Allison
says this site is a transit spot for human trafficking and Erna asks what’s her point when Allison
complains about the sale of underage girls.
Erna tells her to get into the trunk for the three and a half hour ride to the border. Allison
asks what if she needs to pee and Erna says hold it. Erna also says she’s done it before. Allison
climbs in and she says the next time she sees sky, it will be Russian.
Laura is on a German news talk show. She is back on the same show where she threatened to
publish more documents. Laura says she values the truth as a reporter and says to the detriment
of her career and to the US.
She says she hasn’t been home in almost four years. She says Germany has given her a home
and freedom to work. She says she’s tried to show her gratitude by championing the rights of the
German people.
Astrid is there and glares at her. Laura says four days ago she made allegations about state
security. She says she accused the BND of arresting Faisal Marwan on bogus charges. Laura
says she’s seen new evidence that Marwan was not innocent as she thought.
Laura says he was a dedicated member of the terror cell that planned this attack. The host
asks about damage to her credibility. Laura says she has to learn from her mistake and put it
behind her as soon as possible.
Carrie is with Otto and he asks what offer Saul made her. He says she’s being very discreet
then asks if she’s considering it. He’s made her dinner and is asking a lot of questions. Carrie
says it was painful to turn him down.
She says Saul recruited and trained her and has helped her so many times. She says they’ve
always been a team. He asks if she really turned him down and Carrie says yep. She says that
chapter of her life is over. Otto says he has an offer for her too.
Carrie says she needs time of work to be a mom. He says this is not about her old job. He says
he’s hired many extraordinary people over the years but never anyone like her. She says that’s
nice and he says it’s not. He says she’s a brilliant freethinker.
He says it was 10:15 on a Wednesday when they spoke and he offered her a job 15 minutes
later. He says he was waiting on her to walk through the door. Carrie says she’s lost. Otto says
he wants a partner who knows the world as it is and wants it to be better.
Carrie shakes her head and he says she can go back to America and think about it. Carrie
says she doesn’t know what to say. He says think about the possibilities of what I’m offering and
says he’ll be in DC next month for meetings.
He steps closer and says they can talk then then. He walks away and Carrie is left stunned.
Numan calls Laura and says the BND let him go. Laura says she can’t talk to him and says it’s
a condition of the deal she made. She says goodbye when he asks what deal and she hangs up.
Numan looks around and breaks the sim card out of his phone, cracks the phone and tosses
it then walks away. At the German border, the Russians are told there is an accident up ahead
and to go slow. After they let the car pass, the men pull the emergency sign off the road.
A short way up where they were told to drive, a tire spike chain takes out the car’s wheels
then automatic fire riddles the car and Allison’s escorts are both gunned down. Saul is there. He
looks inside the car and doesn’t see Allison.
He tells the men to pop the trunk. Allison is also riddled with gunshot wounds. She’s dead.
Carrie thinks about Quinn’s letter. It says he doesn’t believe in fate but he says he’s not surprised
things turned out this way. He says something was pulling him back to darkness.
He says he was never allowed a real life or real love and says that was for normal people.
She is at the hospital to see him. She puts a chair under the door to block it. He says he saw a
glimmer with her and says this death is what should have happened to him.
He says he wanted and asked for the darkness and it has him now. He says no star on the
wall for him and no speech. She pulls off his oxygen monitor and puts it on her own finger. He

lies still — he never came back after the surgery — he’s a vegetable.
Carrie looks as the sunlight streams in. The letter says he always loved her and now he’s hers
forever. Looks like Carrie is about to finish him off as a mercy kill, but she doesn’t do anything
to him before the episode ends.
