Yeah its basically a no win situation - either he is a terrorist and we have pretty inexcusable situations like revealing Brody's tape, or he's not a terrorist, in which case he's acted pretty dumb and out of character (leaving Aileen with the glasses, etc) for the sake of the plot.

Why is it that shows like Homeland and 24 must always revolve around the good guys desperately trying to stop an imminent attack on american soil?  Is this all our intelligence agencies do?  I'm not an expert on this stuff by any means, but i feel like the CIA tracks down "known terrorists" abroad whether they're…

Also keep in mind that Saul and Saul alone was the one who discovered Brody's tape.  If he was working for Nazir or whoever, he wouldn't have shown it to anyone.  Why blow Brody's cover if he's a terrorist?  All he had to do was snap that memory card in half and no one would know.

The big monkey wrench in the idea that Saul is working for Al Queada is the simple fact that he's Jewish.  We know he's Jewish (not just putting up a front) because of the prayer he recites at the end of the episode.  That prayer was sincere and he said it quietly to himself; It wasn't for show.

Marceline licking pep butt (the second time) was somehow incredibly explicit and also not at all.

But didn't we meet the "Gods" of this universe in the premiere?  I feel like these mini people might just be unique creations of Magic Man, as opposed to evidence of infinite infra/ultra finns.  The idea of the multiverse introduced in the lich suggests otherwise, i think.

The one saving grace for the Nazir plot line right now is that Nazir (and the show) knows that coming to the US was a death sentence.

That's true, why make it a sniper rifle when the audience is essentially trained to equate sniper rifles with Tom walker.  Could have just as easily made it an assault rifle and the point would be the same.

Mike mentioned that to implicate Brody, and he was right. Walker's team mate was Brody.
