In Saul Do We Trust? - Homeland Season 3 Thread

[up in here]

i'm still not entirely sure what the hell the point of this cia plan is but i would be lying if i said i wasn't on the edge of my seat the whole time.. Homeland back?

the plan is to put a puppet (Javadi) in charge of Iran so that they can run shyt over there. They have documents proving Javadi stole millions from the Iranian governement (either from royalty or the military) and they will hand over those documents if he crosses them which would lead to him being executed. The only problem is that Javadi is proving to be quite unpredictable and I think once he is in power he will murk whoever is a threat to him and then he will say fukk the US.

were the guys with brody special forces or CIA agents?

I'm guessing black ops.

The hilarious thing is that this parallels real life where the CIA installs third world puppet dictators who later turn on them. At which point they manipulate the media to fuel a propaganda campaign painting their former puppet as some sort of evil dictator who molests children.

I'm guessing black ops.

the fluent and apparently accent-less arabic led me to believe that, but the ribbing of brody for being a jarhead made me think they were army guys.

I had to rewind to decipher that Arabic, a couple lines were fine but a couple others were a bit

I really hope this season finishes strong, because it's been kind of a mess so far...

 

[Grifter]

When Saul told her to get in control of herself He probably ab lib that cause he tired of seeing it

told her to bite it hard

 

[Sinnerman]

that's my review for this episode

yeah i think it will end strong. its looking like they took the criticism and adjusted the show accordingly. i honestly believe they had more planned for dana and the brody family but cut it after all the backlash. if one thing is certain though, based on these last couple of episodes, and assuming they learned their lesson, next season should be a good one.

This review is later than Carrie's period. Speaking of periods, Carrie realizes Quinn didn't murk the baby, right? How is she smoking Newports and getting into hang gliding accidents when she's three months pregnant? Where can nikkas even hang glide in D.C?Between the bottles of Grey Goose, lithium, smoking with cigarettes like Latarian Milton da gawd, and extreme sports that baby's gonna come out like Walt Jr, minus the affinity for breakfastSince Brody's going to Iran, that means his crib in the Tower of David is vacant, right?They didn't even let my dude go to rehab. What happened to the Brody that used to jerk off on his wife's chest and kill vice presidents? You're shytting yourself and getting carried around like a baby by a group of dudes with immaculate beards?Getting tossed off of boats in botched baptism attempts?Tripping balls off that good African shyt to the point you think you're a vampire and can't even stake yourself the right way?We've all seen Buffy, aim for the heart not the forearm, nikka

Thanks to the power of T.V magic my dude was back like cooked crack in 16 days/three seconds. Letting those army guns off like Gilbert ArenasBut dude couldn't leave well enough alone and had to go visit DanaWhat made him think that was a good idea. She went from relaxing in penthouse suites at Cannes with Finn da gawd to cleaning toilet seats at the Holiday Inn for minimum wage while listening to Macklemore on her Beats By BrehShe's still coping with that massive L and he's just gonna waltz up to try to reconnect? Brody just needs to head to Iran and wife up an Arab broad before Carrie pins that kid on him and starts asking for child support

shyt Like that!!!

This is one of the best episodes for a while. Glad I chose this over M.o.S.

holy shyt, how did i miss this?

The fukk, shyt ended early tonight.

@ these 45 min episodes.

@ the episode though

Short ass episode again

But a GREAT ep, nonetheless

They needed more of this type of action from the get-go, but fukk it. We here.

my guess is the episodes are short because they cut out the life and times of dana and the brody family.

for argument's sake, i'll say that they were speaking a different dialect than you're accustomed to. could be possible no? they were imitating al qaida, presumably gleaned from all over the arabic speaking world

man, I watched this yesterday and carrie had a fukking cold sore on her lip. I couldn't even ignore it cuz she was making those faces during the episode as usual.

and speaking of carrie. how is she able to continue working for the CIA despite her having outburst and cursing out her superiors on the regular???? bytch is totally unstable. and like I said a few weeks ago, we all know that baby is brody's. what does she think is gonna happen? he'll complete his mission and then come home to be with her despite being labeled a traitor to the country, them both being crazy, and her breaking up his family????
