well I would guess that Brodie could claim that the video was made while he was in captivity , that he was forced to do it , there wasn't anything to place a time/date when he made it was there ?

The video footage probably had a date/timer thingy on it for another thing. Most new cameras/camcorders have them now. |

Hmm, I doubt that. He wouldn't have had a spanking clean uniform for starters. Plus, he will have been awarded some sort of stripes/badge that wouldn't have been present on the uniform prior to his kidnap. That's my take anyway.

In the video he is wearing his Gunny chevrons. So that would date the video as post return. I expect the awards on his chest would reflect this as well. |

Brody was a Sergeant when he was captured. When he came back he was promoted to Gunnery Sergeant.

his captors could've gotten him a new uniform . the stripes/badges is a point , but I don't know if they're different .

good point , there has to be something like that that will keep saul and carrie on it , but Brodie could still argue that "maybe his captors used the wrong stripes , or they knew he'd be promoted when he got back ! I dunno! godammitt ! they tortured me what do you want !!?" etc.

I doubt they'd be able to magic up a brand new US Marines uniform complete with all the relevant stripes. Especially as per barnsleykeith's post below. Also, Nazir would have no way of knowing Brody would be promoted to Gunnery Sergeant...
This. |

I think you are reading way too much into it. We know he didn't make the video whilst captured, so I'm pretty sure the CIA would be able to work that out too! I very much doubt Abu Nazir would spend his time learning all the different ranks/awards for the US military!

The other thing that makes the video look genuine is his behaviour; it's cool, calm and collected, not what you'd expect from someone being forced to do it under duress believing that at any time, he could be killed.
There's just too much for him to be able to offer an explanation. |

I've just skimmed over an article on the DS homepage, which recaps Episode 4. Have I missed something? Are DS recapping an episode we haven't seen in the UK yet??

Episode 3 is called ''State of Independence'' I never view anything except the DS Forum pages so can't comment on what you have read. |

I felt this latest episode was dragging it out a bit. But still enjoying it.

re Brodies sd card
How come it was found in the lining of the bag. I know he made a video which would seen be if he was blown up. Have I missed a vital bit.

![]() ![]() ![]() Claire Danes made up for the silliness though. I thought Saul would find Carrie and save her. But she did that herself. Danes and Patinkin are superb on screen together. |

The house that Carrie went to in Beirut was Abu Nazir's. He lived there with his wife. |

Morena Baccarin was the stunning, yes STUNNING alien leader in the sci-fi series "V". She had a way of walking that was just ................. ![]() ![]() Very desirable, much like Servalan in "Blakes Seven" |

Yes that's right. So either the bag belonged to Fatima's husband - Abbas. Or Abu Nazir was staying there whilst in Beirut and he left it when he went to the meet?
