    WHY is Carrie still attracted by Brody, after all she went through & all the things she knows about him?? Why did she cry on his shoulder last week, making herself so vulnerable again? He was (probably still IS...) the most dangerous person they've been try to catch for ages in US, I would expect a whole bunch of agents knocking at his office door after the massacre in the tailor's shop, instead of one single person – CARRIE – who always seems to be absolutely isolated in everything she does... uuuffff... :?:

    when they first made them get together in the first season i thought it might ruin the show.. they made it work in the end but it's still a little awkward for me when Carrie tells Brody she loves him or when they kissed this episode.. it just seems a little unreal to me that she would be in to him as a CIA agent, especially after knowing she was right about him and what he was going to do..

    Ummm, obviously it has been shown that Carrie isn't exactly mentally stable.

    and its not only her instability.. she loves him. we cant help who we fall in love with. and so consequently its not easy to get over them... no matter how much we should for our own health.

    Don't know, I definitively agree, when you're in love your feelings are so overwhelming that it becomes quite hard to control yourself, & yes she is mentally unstable, BUT she is also a top CIA agent & she's back on her medications... I don't know, I have the feeling she is going to run into even bigger trouble than in the first season... we'll see! Enjoy the episode tonight!
    She holds the hand that holds her down...
    She will... rise above...

    Holy Cow are you kidding me!!!! That episode was insanely good. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time and sincerely thought Brodie was done for. This is the only show on TV that keeps me guessing half as much as Breaking Bad does.

    That's what makes both of thoses shows so great....I never have a fucking clue what is going to happen next.

    I can't believe there are still 3 more episodes to go with this season. This whole new wrinkle with Quinn being some sort of Black Ops CIA assassin just made everything even more interesting.

    STILL three more episodes? I've been thinking ONLY three more.

    This shit's like opium to me :mrgreen:

    Wonder what Brody's doing with alerting the CIA that Nazir is in the US, but not revealing that they prayed together during their visit.

    (aaand, way to go to his wife for fucking Mike in the "guest room")

    Well yeah, ONLY 3 more episodes left. Just hard to believe that there are still 3 episodes left after everything that has happened this season. Defintely didn't think that the truth about Brody would come out by episode 4 or 5 this season or whatever it was.

    Yeah, wondering if anything will come of Brody not mentioning the prayer thing. Could he have been turned back by Nazir? Was this attack that was averted just a ploy for something bigger? I never say this, but I can't wait for Sunday night!!!

    Colbert made a good point last night. When do the characters on Homeland charge their cell phones and how do they get such good service no matter where they are? :lol:

    I think if he told them that, it would show a more significant loyalty lean to Nazir. If Brody is thinking long term, he trusts Nazir as his only way to have a life after it all goes down over the CIA.

    Or, he's now playing Nazir, and praying with him garnered his trust.

    I don't know...this show always turns me for a (wonderful) loop. I keep thinking we're gonna get another one of those what-the-fuck scenes that looks back on Brody's time before returning to the US, that will shed light on his intent.

    (I still want to know how he came to be "re-imprisoned" and discovered by our troops in the very first episode)

    (and, they best be already shooting Season 3!)
