In other words, 'huzzah for Al Qaeda.'

That was an amazing episode. I can't really out sort my emotions about it, but Carrie getting electroshock—that was one of the most emotionally challenging scenes I have ever seen. A tribute to the character development of the show.
A terrorist starts planning terrorist attacks after lying low for a bit. Again, not convinced.
That's a fair argument; I can't really say this would be a bad way to go.
Can we have a sitcom devoted to Van Alden and his Swedish maid?
Eh, Harrow was about to kill himself, to be fair.
That was awesome.
Left a whole lot of metal in his chest. If you've ever been wanded, and I assume everybody has been, you know those things aren't binary—the amount of beeping depends on the amount and proximity of the metal.
Forget Nazir. Brody is an incredibly impressive operator. Walker too.
These are the 24 showrunners. Jack went from CTU to DOD to FBI to NewCTU. Nothing here says Carrie and Saul are tied to the CIA.
Also, why did Carrie think he was grieving? There's 20 different alternative explanations for why somebody drops off the face of the earth for a bit. Did her bipolar disorder give her psychic powers?
He did think it was PTSD. This was made abundantly clear. He says that she returned damaged from Iraq and she later tells him that she was this way since college, with the clear implication being that it wasn't PTSD from Iraq that resulted in this.
Galvez openly admits he's Moslem and Arab, which would suggest counter-intel has an eye on him as a prophylactic measure. Even if not, it would be ridiculous to make him the mole.
Jesus, it must have been terrible before they had drugs to treat it. Wow.
Awkward.
So considering we know that Brody's buddy was turned and is hunting for the President or Vice President, they're going to let him near the VP without putting him through a metal detector wand test. Gotcha.
John Allen Muhammad?
This show is in danger of becoming too unrealistic, due to things like this. It worked for 24, because you suspended your disbelief willingly in exchange for an awesome action-thriller. Here, I want a little more realism.
The diplomat looked calm going to the meet. Even a fanatic isn't that calm going to their death, and he was no fanatic.
