The other one's nearly full, so here we go with Carrie & Brody, St Saul of Snacks and our theories of What Happens Now.

Beautiful music

So Series 3 with St Saul in charge and Carrie clearing Brody's name? Where is Quinn? Has he signed up for the next series?

HazeltheMcWitch · 23/12/2012 22:21

See!!! He a goody. Carrie also a goody.

Brody - tbc but I think it was not him this time.

Estes a baddy, but a lovely one.

Quinn / Dar Udal? Think they're meant to be black ops, so theoretically both, right? But all that guff Quinn was spouting about 'he kills terrorists' was meant to be saying that he's good deep down. Not sure why he's disappeared.

MrsReiver · 23/12/2012 22:21

I see DH isn't the only one who thinks Saul is dodgy.

I'm keeping the faith.

VivaLeBeaver · 23/12/2012 22:21

I think Quinn will be hunting Brody on the run.

coffeeinbed · 23/12/2012 22:23

There has to be a reason Saul's wife in suddenly in the picture again.

bunchamunchycrunchycarrots · 23/12/2012 22:24

I think carrie can convince Quinn that brody is a goodie albeit with slightly suicidal terrorist tendencies and recruit him to her 'cause' in clearing his name.

ifancyashandy · 23/12/2012 22:27

Mrs Saul called to make sure the plan had gone to plan. Maybe.

coffeeinbed · 23/12/2012 22:28
Hmm and the woman terrorist asked about her.. well dodgy.
BlingBubbles · 23/12/2012 22:28

Brilliant ending to a great season.

I think Quinn will come back and help carrie clear brody's name, Saul an brody know that the tape is old. I definitely don't think Saul is the leak he was on a ship when the car was moved, someone from the CIA is definitely in on it as they must have moved his car.

Ooh can't wait till next season

Hassled · 23/12/2012 22:29

Oh my lordy lord - that was good.

I'm not convinced it wasn't Brodie. I hope it wasn't Brodie - but his reaction to the Walden eulogy, his reaction to Nazir's death - he hasn't fully lost the faith there, I don't think.

And yes, where is Dar Adul in all this? Will Carrie tell Saul that Brodie is alive and well and in a Newfoundland fishing boat (to where?)?

Hassled · 23/12/2012 22:30

And yes, Mrs Saul's sudden reappearance has to be significant.

donnie · 23/12/2012 22:31

I was right all along - it WAS Saul. I knew it.

I really liked the way they paralleled the two funerals of The Veep ,with all the thousands of dignitaries, and Nazir, with barely anyone there at all.

Now that Estes is gone, Saul is off the hook. That means he can precipitate the leaking of the Brody recorded suicide message as if it is current. Nobody else except arrie even knew about it and Saul probably thought she was dead as well.

Loved it whan he said to her "you are the cleverest and dumbest person I know

bunchamunchycrunchycarrots · 23/12/2012 22:32

Where was Galvez when all this kicked off? Hmm

coffeeinbed · 23/12/2012 22:33

It doesn't make sense though.
Why would the terrorists use the old video - they know the CIA found it it and so the CIA knows it's old.

donnie · 23/12/2012 22:33

But how long will we have to wait for the next series? that is my big worry............sunday nights will just not be the same Sad

FlourFace · 23/12/2012 22:33

I'm not convinced it was Saul...

Why do you think it was?

donnie · 23/12/2012 22:34

I am just watching the re-run on channel 4 +1!

bunchamunchycrunchycarrots · 23/12/2012 22:34

Depends on the length of maternity leave in Danes' contract. Anyone got the inside info on that?Smile

FlourFace · 23/12/2012 22:34

Hebrew prayer.

cocolepew · 23/12/2012 22:36

Ohh I forhot everyone will have watched it.

Here's my tuppence worth. Brody is a Baddie. How could anyone but him leave the car there? It's in CIA HQ.

Saul, Saul, Saul Sad. I'm back to thinking he is. Bad Man. I half expected him,when he was on the ship, to turn and grin manically at the camera while his eyes glowed red Sad

difficultpickle · 23/12/2012 22:37

So when did he move the car? We saw him park it between other cars not on its own.

FlourFace · 23/12/2012 22:38

Someone could have nicked Brody's keys! Or hot wired it. Or just bloody pushed it.

Terrorists can blow big shit up - they can get to a car! Grin

cocolepew · 23/12/2012 22:39

Is the video being shown to make it look like it was the cia bombing Brody was talking about? I'm going to watch the end on 4+1

Surely its suspicious that Brody would get up and walk away during the memorial service?

donnie · 23/12/2012 22:41

I had my suspicions about Saul all along although I had retracted them a few episodes ago.

TBH I don't know any more.

Weird that Brody told Dana everything about the suicide vest though, don't you think? why did he confess like that, surely unleashing information like that would be catastrophic. he told her he wouldn't do anything like that now. I think he has been framed for the bombing.

It has to be Saul - he asked carrie to go with him to the Nasir burial at sea and even when she said no he tried to persuade her. When he called her dumb he didn't just mean about Brody - he meant going to Walden's funeral was a dumb decision.

That's my tuppence worth!
