I am beside myself with excitement. here - who's putting the contacts in? Is that Carrie in a disguise? Any one else agog?

bisjo - he was initially trying to keep him quiet with his hand over the guy's mouth, but eventually 'snapped' and did a sharp head twist to permanently shut him up. He had lifted him initially, leaned him against a tree and then was talking on the phone when the guy moaned at least once.

Think it might have been in part a reaction to the hassle, when he was only trying to help the man get to a safe house, but the guy clearly wouldn't trust him, had run off, clobbered him from behind, and tried running again. Maybe Brody thought that even if he got him to the safe house, the guy wouldn't stay there, would be found by cops/CIA and everything would be blown for him (Brody).

Brody didn't even see the (earlier) opportunity that the tailor had (and looked so close to taking) of hitting him from behind with the car jack, when Brody was down by the wheel.

I somehow thought it wasn't a spike, but a knife the tailor fell on... but I'm perhaps mistaken.

It looked like a knife to me too - hunting trap maybe?

difficultpickle · 25/10/2012 21:06

I thought it was a hunting trap rather than deliberate. I completely missed the head twist. Must try harder in my observations this Sunday Smile

cocolepew · 25/10/2012 21:53

It was a spike sticking out of the ground. How do you learn to do that neck snappy thing? I have someone in -mind.

PseudoBadger · 25/10/2012 21:54

First step - be a Marine :o

onedev · 25/10/2012 23:38

I went out with a US Marine for 3 years - don't think they teach that as standard although maybe they do & he kept it hidden Grin

SlightlyJaded · 26/10/2012 12:54

for anyone who missed the 'tenting'

difficultpickle · 28/10/2012 21:18

I don't trust Estes and don't trust Peter Quinn.

difficultpickle · 28/10/2012 22:00

I've watched all of this week's episode and I don't understand why Carrie told Brody he'd been made. I thought the plan was to see what his plan was? Confused x 1000.

MajesticWhine · 28/10/2012 22:02

My take on it is that she screwed up. They don't have anything more on him after that do they? But equally Confused

FrillyMilly · 28/10/2012 22:02

Where does it go from here???

Im assuming Carrie blew it because she wanted revenge. He really go to we when he mentioned the ECT.

PseudoBadger · 28/10/2012 22:03

Great episode. She was worried that he'd either warn his contacts or carry out whatever plan he had.

difficultpickle · 28/10/2012 22:03

I'm watching it again on 4+1 Blush

FrillyMilly · 28/10/2012 22:03

*got to her

Hassled · 28/10/2012 22:05

Yes, where does it go from here? They turn Brodie, or at least they think they do?

OP posts:
Hassled · 28/10/2012 22:06

And how did he know about the ECT?

OP posts:
trifling · 28/10/2012 22:13

Oh they must turn him and snd him back out. How come Roya didn't make the list when they were profiling his contacts?

difficultpickle · 28/10/2012 22:16

I wondered about Roya. Wasn't Estes involved in the profiling choice? I wonder if that is the connection/mole? Estes is in the perfect position to deflect/focus attention on whomever he wants.

trifling · 28/10/2012 22:18

Or Saul...

EldritchCleavage · 28/10/2012 22:19

I think Carrie reacted not to the ECT question (which was crass) but the abrupt way he left. She said "Wait, that's it?" and he said he had an early start in the morning. He didn't even try and come on to her. I think she went into crazy mode after that.

difficultpickle · 28/10/2012 22:19

Saul? Noooooo..

Hassled · 28/10/2012 22:19

Not Saul. Never Saul.

But yes, you'd have thought they would have profiled her arse off at this stage.

Oh, I feel lucky just to be opening the wine and watching it now.

EldritchCleavage · 28/10/2012 22:20

Estes has already done the arse profiling!

difficultpickle · 28/10/2012 22:33

Eldritch that's his weakness isn't it? Wouldn't surprise me if it was him.
