ye i've also been hoping that since the beginning, especially because some of his and saul's interactions have a slightly "staged" quality to them this season, as you say! BUT i'm too afraid of committing to that hope because i can't see a way of going through with it now in a way that wouldn't be dumb and…

sure i can get behind that up to a point, but all his actions just point to him being overly credulous in a way that he wasn't in previous seasons imo. there's nothing about his actions that tells me that his motives are careerist/ass-covering in nature. at first he's very adamant about being disgusted with his…

oh god just watched the promo clip for the next episode ;_;

i used to hope that too re: dar, but have lost most of that hope now in the face of his inexplicable behaviour. :/

tbh i loved this episode. the only thing that still doesn't work for me is dar adal and his sudden stupidity, as well as mostly everyone else's stupidity when it comes to allison and her smug games.

awesome episode. i've really loved this season, and this ep is the cherry on top. loved watching Saul's working planting the trackers in Allison's things, loved the double crossing manoeuvres Carrie/Saul/BND were pulling on Allison, loved her final meeting with Ivan (great acting in that scene) and I love that Dar…

i hoped so hard it would happen but :/

Oh I just assumed Etai's accent was German! the more you know!

ahhh well lets hope not. dont be a hero quinn. :[

ill also be so upset if quinn dies, but i think this is his way out of the black hole he's been in for the past couple of seasons. he's about to do something awesome.

one more clue pointing us toward her real identity, paige jennings

ah i'm just really really enjoying this season. this is exactly what i love watching in spy movies/tv shows. give me more of that cigarette play and hidden messages in bibles.

React in any way at all I guess.

i honestly can't wrap my mind around how stupid they're all being!!! dar and saul especially. like i just can't see it being as straightforward as that. Like Allison suddenly feeling ill out of nowhere after he's just told her something, and that doesn't make him pause at all? And Dar falling for it all?? I just…

omg ye as soon as that dude picked up the dog menacingly i felt a stab of fear. :[ i just hope homeland isn't the type of show to show an animal being killed as a way of threatening the owner ugh.

Oriole was Carrie's codename at some point. The man she called in Iraq who told her about the lawyer, now in Amsterdam, who faked his own death was one of Carrie's assets back in the day. That document she found mentioning Oriole basically said that they spoke to that man who insisted on meeting with Oriole (much as…

Also lol @ Saul's shriek

Omg Saul… Last thing I expected to happen!

Ye I think so - its turned out to be one of my favourite seasons. The German reboot is keeping things going.

I hope so!
