Movies and TV Homeland on Showtime - Page 9

Two theories I have to get off my chest before I forget.

1. It was mentioned the Brody and Wallace might have been in Country and already CIA. And the previews for next week mentioned 'so it was all about Issa.' Possible that Brody didn't so much get captured, bond with Issa then see him die, as he went DEEP DEEP cover, and ate 8 years of a bathtub of shit, to gather intel on Nazzer, only to have it misinterpreted by the US to kill kids instead of the original target all along.

2. Is it not remotely possible that Brody wasn't aware of the possibility that Nazzer would render Brody and the SuitMan pink mist the instant they showed up at that safe house. Having an inside man so high up in government was fortunate for Nazzer, but it was a dangerous accident to have someone too inside, and the original plan was for him to die taking out all those folks.

I have to disagree on both of those, man.

1. It was mentioned that Brody might have been working for the CIA by Mike and Lauder and they were just playing a guessing game. I don't think it was based on any kind of reality at all. How would Brody even transmit any kind of intel to the US while being in Nazir's captivity? I think the story that was presented made perfect sense as it was and there really is no reason to come up with these super far-fetched theories. But who knows?

2. I don't think Nazir wanted to kill Brody because that would be just extremely foolish. I mean the man had just saved his life by being "too inside." He had also gotten target codes for Nazir straight from Estes' safe. Why would Nazir get rid of something so valuable? If anything, I think the writers went too deep into the far-fetched territory by having Brody deal with the tailor. That sort of a task would fall to someone else, but their excuse was that the tailor would only trust Brody. Meh. They will also need to explain at some point how the codes to Estes' safe were obtained. I'm assuming it's the same leak that's been alluded to throughout the show, but WTF kind of a leak would have someone's personal safe codes? Meh.

Best ****ing show on TV. Nothing is better. Period.

What a great episode. No way anyone saw her blowing her cover this early in the story arc.

Not a surprise, but Homeland official got picked up today for a third season.

This season has moved much quicker than I thought...

The fact that they took Brodie in already leads me to believe that they're going to flip him and use him.

**Bowser** · 10-25-2012, 04:03 PM

Well, that escalated quickly.....

Another fantastic episode. The new guy working with Carrie is awesome.

yep, still have a lot of places to take this plot line. We will still be kept guessing where it goes.

I never in a million years thought they would have him outed completely early in season 2 and then use him against the terrorists. Really like that they went that direction instead of trying to maintain the same story forever.

WoodDraw · 10-29-2012, 10:01 PM

Like it all, minus the hit and run. That was stupid - hope they save that somehow.

Not that the first interrogation scene wasn't good (including the new guy Quinn going Jack Bauer on Brody out of absolutely nowhere), but the interrogation scene between Carrie and Brody was great TV. A ton of emotion in it...the chemistry between those two is unparalleled.

You know, I've done a lot of stuff while being on the phone with someone. Driving, eating, shaving, taking a piss, all sorts of things. But I never thought that someone could kill a dude while having the wife on the other line.
