Homeland Discussion Thread **SPOILERS**

[E-Man]

Brody has to have the worst daughter ever. In tonight's episode he gave her this look like, "***** I should've put that vest on your dumb ass."

[MetSox17]

Yeah, Dana has been a miserable **** this season. Maybe she just needs some dick.

[thefalconer]

her and that milk tantrum. i would've beat her.

[Smooth Criminal]

I've always liked Dana, but she's clearly not stable in the least.

I'd be shocked if Brody died, but I can see it happening. What's left for him? Walden is dead, Nazir is dead, he lost his family and his job. The only thing left for him is Carrie.

But on the other hand, do you kill one of your stars that just won an Emmy and change the entire premise of the show? Easy to question what they do with Brody after this, but at the same time what does the show do without him?

[themaninblack]

Dat guilt!!


So is this show on the downward curve of its hipster likeability trajectory yet or wuuut?!

[vidae]

I really don't want Brody to die but I have no idea what they can do with him at this point.

I'm excited for next week.

[brat316]

should end the show.

its gonna end up being some crazy off the wall **** if they keep going.

[vidae]

The most glaring thing that bugged me from last nights episode was when they made it a point to say that these teams worked in pairs, but when it was time to look through Abu Nazirs hiding place, everyone but ONE guy went away? Where was his backup?

If you're going to point something out earlier in the episode at least follow through with it later.

Also they swept through that place a few times, but Carrie is the one who found the room? Why not use search dogs? Or some sophisticated scanners to search for hidden rooms?

I dunno, I still love the show, and I love the actors, but that bugged me.

[Dr. Gonzo]

Thought it was another great episode. The Galvez being muslim so a suspect thing was hilarious and I felt well built up through the entire show really. So Carrie really is that crazy and I love it, I don't think Brody will die, I am fairly sure that plan will backfire but I gave up predicted which direction the show will go in long ago.

The ***** has had some dick plenty of times. Her boyfriend before the VP's son was giving it to her, but she was a ***** then and is still one. She never does what she is told and flip flops on ****. One minute she's all on her father's nuts and hating her mother for being with Mike, now the ***** says she wishes that her dad never came back and Mike was there instead? I know teens do and say dumb ****, but her ass needs to be tortured or something by Nazir.

lmaooo, totally agree, I can't stand her character neither but can we all agree that she is a pretty damn good actor for her age?

Hard to see where this show is going to go with Nazir gone, but I doubt they kill Brody. I think next season it will be Carrie, Brody, and Saul vs. Estes, Adal, and Quinn or something to that extent.

I think that will be wrapped up to some degree next episode. There will be a twist of some kind to close this season but I don't think it will be Brody getting killed, I think Nazir planned something before he died.

[E-Man]

Nazir got killed too easily for there not to be something else up. If his whole plan was to come to the U.S. just to give Brody a pep talk then it's a wonder how he got such a huge stature in the first place. I think that something else is up while they distracted thinking they finally got Nazir.

So she's like every other teenage girl I've ever met.

I definitely think there's more to the plan. But I do think it'll be wrapped up next episode. They won't carry Nazirs vision on to the next season without him there to support it. Could easily be Brody is still in on it. Only thing that stopped him last time was Dana and now that he's lost his family he could easily be the key to something big.

[thule]

Anyone have a guess about what Nazir was reaching for before he died?

I don't think he had anything. I think he wanted to die by cop, basically. He didn't want to be endlessly questioned and live his life in captivity, so that was the easiest way to go.

I don't think his final plan is over though.

I think it was nothing. He just wanted to be shot and reaching for something assured that.

Can't see Brody still being involved. His main concern was to kill Walden for what he did with the drone strikes.

[MetSox17]

I think Brody is definitely done with Nazir and his vision, but i'm curious to see where they take his character now. Everything points to him getting taken out of the storyline already, but the likelihood of that seems low for me, still.

[Vox Populi]

At least we know that the series isn't ending since its already been renewed for another 12 episode season.

[Bert Macklin]

Next season will probably be Carrie/Saul/Brody running from the CIA and trying to unravel Estes plot.

[Smooth Criminal]

I think they'll have something bigger planned than that. Can Estes really be the main villain on a show like Homeland? I doubt it.

Ugh, just ugh. Having Nazir come to the US is going to be the moment where this show took a turn for the worst. I mean, I loved 24 and all, but that show existed in a different world where those kind of storylines fit much better.

[vidae]

That isn't a show I'd watch. Estes isn't a villain like Abu Nazir is a villain.
