Well, Hair's scenes with Saul are the reverse of smoochy, so I think her minxishness favours craggy Russian bad guys over beardy CIA bigwigs!

(My own personal backstory is that she had to decide at one point whether to seduce Saul or Dar Adal as part of her evil CIA-infiltrating masterplan, in a Battle of Who's Got the Nicer Beard?)

Do you suppose there are blooper reels where, in between takes, Hair does her Eowyn Proud Shieldmaiden thing, Dar chews scenery as Salieri, and Saul says 'My name is Inigo Montoya, you keeled my father, prepare to die!' ?

Finally catching up with last week's episode and quite amused to see Ahmed the dead terrorist. Grin

Howaboutthisone · 27/11/2015 23:02

Siege - loving your description of Carrie's unemployability Grin

Lweji · 27/11/2015 23:33

Ehm, why didn't she just turn the handle on her side of the door.

Some doors can be open with handles from the inside and only keys on the outside.

But, yes, if you are going to covertly search someone's house, don't break the glass on the door. They may notice it some time.

CarrieMathisonsTrouserSuit · 28/11/2015 09:40

Someone up thread mentioned the finger prints. I was Shock that she searched that apartment without gloves. I just realised she didn't care because she smashed the window.

Carrie would never trust Hair, it must be a set up, but why give her such a warning? Why not catch her unawares and confront her?
I thought Saul was making a big drama with the taps on in order to send Hair on a wild goose chase, but no, he spills the beans about Carrie.
Too many double bluffs here.

Lweji · 28/11/2015 11:32

I see what you meant earlier about the taxi driver. Even having read the thread before watching the episode, I had forgotten about it and though he was being really obvious following Ahmed, the dead terrorist. (btw: clip for that reference: - and before anyone mentions it, I know it's a slightly different spelling).
I knew he'd be dead by the time she returned to the taxi. Useless agent.

Howaboutthisone · 29/11/2015 11:53

Oo looking forward to tonight's episode. Hopefully things will start to come together/be explained?!

Lweji · 29/11/2015 12:32

Yes.

SiegeofEnnis · 29/11/2015 14:11

Yes, that poor cabbie was dead as soon as he looked pathetically pleased to see Carrie, and mentioned that he was studying for an MBA. It's the Homeland equivalent of being the slightly chubby, goofy soldier who produces a photograph of his sweetheart in the first ten minutes of trench warfare and is promptly offed in the middle of a speech about how Annie is waiting for him at home, and they're going to have a cottage with roses over the door. Grin

Jonas's horror at how much blood Carrie has on her hands is pretty apt, actually.

And whoever said Carrie really needs to work on her 'unobtrusive fast walk' is absolutely right - she does this mad speeded-up fast waddle that looks a bit like race-walking, which would make her stick out a mile anywhere, even leaving aside the Unconvincing Brunette Wig or the Stand-Out Silky Blonde Locks.

And do we think that Hair is planning to kill Carrie herself, or put her nasty squeeze Ivan onto her? If she's planning to do it herself (because let's face it, the Russians have been a bit crap about murdering Carrie to date!), will she take off her high heels and rather nice pencil skirts and silk blouses? If I were an double-crossing CIA station chief regularly going to the same safe house to meet a Russian spy, I'd be doing it in clothes I could run in...

EachandEveryone · 29/11/2015 18:07

Oh I hope the jungle won't interfere with tonight's

Hassled · 29/11/2015 18:11

Carrie must know that Hair is bad. That "can we meet up for some girlie chat about stuff and shit?" call was part of a cunning plan, except I'm too thick to work out what the cunning plan is.

I like Siege's beard-picking technique to decide which CIA boss to shag.

Anyone know how many?

Cocolepew · 29/11/2015 19:31

I think Carrie definitely knows, Hair is bad, and so does Saul (kindred spirits and all that).
I think Saul and Carrie are deep cover and she's still CIA.

Lweji · 29/11/2015 19:41

Five episodes left including today's in the UK. Quite a lot can still happen.

TheSpottedZebra · 29/11/2015 19:46

I wondered that, Coco, whether this thing was a reeeeaaaaalllllly long play, and that she's really still embedded. But then I couldn't figure out how that worked with the 2 hackers 'randomly' being able to access those CIA files.

I still think that Saul (he who represents all that is good in this mortal world), was playing Hair a bit there, and fed her the Carrie info as previously agreed together.
