how long has carrie been without her pills? Or did i miss her visiting her sister sometime last episode?
I don't think they show every time she takes a pill.

Now I'm thinking that Brody and Walker are basically part of a terrorist cell without realising it. Each has their mission and orders, but neither knows the other is involved. When (if) they each follow the orders they've been given, something massive is going to happen.

I thought it was obvious to not rule out Brody as the 'big reveal' last week, so I guess I wasn't so surprised. So exactly what is 'over' between Abu Nazir and Brody is the question. Is it going to be something silly or something huge? I think they have both been turned, but is it really that simple?

I really didn't. I thought that they were setting Brody up to become this ongoing emotional nemesis for Carrie into the next series. Maybe that was wishful thinking though.

This show has me twisting in all directions all the time.

Intriguing.

I was thinking that maybe Walker knows Brody has been turned and plans to take him out. But then, he must've been released by his captors because had he just escaped and found his way back home, it's a bit of a stretch.

So have they both been turned? (that's what I thought the original premise of the story was). We know Brody and Walker are both associates with that diplomat.

What is going on?!

Maybe they set Walker up to do the kill and Brody to take the fall. Big american hero and all that. That would have an huge impact on the American psyche.

good thinking.......and we still have to find out who the "ringleader" is.

I'm still suspicious of Mike....why did he take up with Brody's wife of course this could be a red herring

That would only have been better if Brody had swung the chair around, holding and stroking a cat and going mmmwwwhahahaha!



Silly me, I was just starting to think Brody might not be in too deep.

What did Carrie mean when she said to Saul she was always going to be
alone? She has a family and friends. She must have meant she thinks
she's too psychologically damaged to mantain a
romantic relationship. Poor Carrie!

Yeh, realise that, it's just that the writers were making such an issue of it last ep. Even her sister sounded quite worried aobut it yet there was no follow up unless I missed it.

I think it has more to do with the nature of the job......she'll be forever married to the CIA......Just like Saul.

He could still be a treble agent...pretending to have turned.

....or Brody is supposed to kill Walker after Walker kills whoever he's supposed to kill. Brody won't want to do it especially as he's found out his friend is alive and Abu N. lied to him.
(Walker wouldn't have been missed because he was already 'dead.')
