Homeland fans, next month, it's back 😯!

[Cocolapew]

It's on early February, I'm not sure if that's USA or the UK as well, but I think we usually get it shortly after.
Can't wait for Carries crying face to be back on my screen 😣😟

I think I’d have to concede that Saul is indeed of the dark side if he managed to get Carrie all the way to head of the CIA

Everyone ready to be confused?
I'm Saul Snackless, I'll have to raid the kitchen after Top Gear.

I’m doing lent so no Saul snacks here either

I'm supposed to be dieting but gave up after 2 days, it was boring 🙂, so it's a good job I'm not doing Lent.
My Mum is Not Happy. My nephew is going to Kabul for 4 months and she's worried hes going to be kidnapped like Saul

As long as he isn’t going with Carrie I think he’s safe. She’s the risk factor. No doubt about it.

Poor max!

Oh I am SO excited!!

Juan sheets what were you excited?

I don’t want to say it and jinx it!

Ok i’ll Say but don’t tell anyone I did! They keep dropping Brody clues. I’ve always thought he’s still alive. Tonight yevgeny said he hoped he and Carrie could pick up from where they’d left it and then reminded her how she told him about her relationship with Brody. I reckon yevgeny has encountered Brody or heard of him and told Carrie (while she was his prisoner) he was alive and could find him in exchange for her working for him. But Carrie has forgotten all this. I hope I’m not wrong.

Tall beardy Russian has me confused. Think Carrie is too. And the bit about her holding Franny under the bath water

Did Carrie know Saul had been held hostage? He scrubbed up pretty quickly.

Pakistani lady has her claws back into Jamal. Will they bring peace tumbling down before it's even started?

Can't remember much about the US administration and the new President. I think he's ok? But are there rumblings of a coup by the Vice President?

: gasp: I said to DH imagine if Brody was still alive

Juan... now that would be a suitable ending to the whole story!

Tall beardy Russian has me confused.

He has me something else

And the bit about her holding Franny under the bath water

I think that was him just proving to her that she really did talk to him about Brody rather than him having just read her file. She won’t have told anyone about holding the baby under the water. So he couldn’t have heard it from anyone but her.

Did Carrie know Saul had been held hostage?

It wasn’t clear whether she knew or not. When she went to tell her station chief she wasn’t going to Germany she didn’t even mention Saul I’d ask about him and the SC shut down his laptop with Saul onscreen when she walked in. He also sent a message saying something like “is there anything I can do to help?” To someone after she left. I don’t trust him.

But are there rumblings of a coup by the Vice President?

Sounds like it.

gasp: I said to DH imagine if Brody was still alive shock

I’ve never lost faith they’re making so many references to him already in this season- it has to be going somewhere.

Isn't Brody too busy making Billions?

The current President basically got there through a coup, IIRC, but, sadly, I think the Vice just intends to dispute the following elections.

Is Billions still going? I didn’t realise it was. That’s had a good run too.

Due in May only, though.

OMG, I missed all references to Brody. I'm losing it, obvs.

Beardy seemed so sweet and genuine with Carrie. Don't trust him an inch though.

Agree^^ he’s dangerous.

He's a baaad man I think.

(But he could interrogate me!)

What is the deal with nothing bad happening as long as Max is at his base? There's some significance there, I reckon. Who is protecting him?

This season is really pretty damned good and I'm so glad - I'd hate for Homeland to go out being a bit shit. This is far from a bit shit.

I think the references to Brody are because Carrie’s situation mirrors his. American held captive. No one knows if she’s been turned or not. Unfortunately I don’t think he’s coming back.

I keep hoping Raza Jeffrey comes back. He really could interrogate me any time.

It's just superstition. And his Intel, I suppose.

Ooh do you think there have been orders from somewhere for no attacks/road bombs etc while max is there? That would mean max was pretty valuable. Has Saul engineered a secret truce for his safety?

Has Max turned? Why else would he bring such good luck to the base?
