Homeland - S1E4
WARNING: This review contains spoilers.
Here's a life lesson for folks. If you ever find yourself cornered, just think of where you would rather be. Then go there. If it works for Homeland, it will work for you.
This episode's twist is totally unexpected, at least for me. So Carrie has been working with Saul all along? And the plan was to get the Iranians to contact Carrie about providing them with sensitive information? Sure, that makes sense. Consider that Carrie has risked her life for her job and country multiple times in the past, so naturally she will jump ship and commit treason at the first opportunity that she gets to exact revenge on Saul's harsh treatment of her. Or not.
