I reckon everything will be looking like Brody has genuinely sided with the CIA until (somehow) one of his kids dies due to a CIA cock-up, breaking Brody again and sending him on the run.

I'm really not enjoying this. It's too slow, it's largely nonsensical.

The entire interrogation scene didn't achieve anything! The good cop/bad cop thing was idiotic. Guy stabs man in the hand so Carrie can go in and make friends with Brody - even thought they hadn't agreed this beforehand and Saul may not have sanctioned Carrie's presence in the room with Brody.

Also, his denial about wearing an explosive vest was also bullshit, because the CIA's endgame was obviously to send him back in either way. So the interrogation was irrelevant.


Also, are they gonna hurry up and get Jess naked or what? It's almost the only reason I keep watching.

triple agent
only way it can keep tension and suspense. Will we ever really know who's side he's on?

You can call the show a lot of things, but 'slow' is an odd one, considering the brisk pace it runs at. You should check out season 2 of The Walking Dead.

I'm getting a bit fed up of this now. Every episode does a complete 360 in terms of plot development - it doesn't seem to be going anywhere.

It started so promising as well when they were talking about Iran and the mission in the Lebanon.

Yeah, there doesn't seem to be an actual point at the moment, I really hope the strike on the tailors wasnt an indication that this has gone all late 24 with ZOMFG TEH GOVAMENT IS IN ON IT OMG. When that guy took his mask off, were we supposed to know who it was?.

Carrie: BRODY DID YOU LIE TO ME :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: I DON'T KNOW WHY I TRUST YOU BECAUSE YOU'RE A TERRORIST BUT DID YOU LIE TO ME ANYWAY? :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

Brody: No I didn't lie.

Yes you should have recognised him from earlier in that episode. He was the guy buy the waterfall that they couldn't hear, and then the lost him in the train station.

Oh right, so I guess that means that off screen either Brody warned them, or that woman from Lost knows they're watching.

Latest episode was good but there are two things I don't like about where this show is going:

1. The relationship between Brody and Carrie doesn't shouldn't be at all possible now, so I wish they'd stop with that angle.
2. The way Brody keeps acting as if he is the victim. He is a terrorist and the only reason he is not in jail is because he can lead the CIA to a bigger terrorist. So it's annoying to hear him complain whenever the CIA ask him to do something trivial, he should be thankful they didn't lock him up for the rest of his life.

Also, how long are they going to drag out Brody's daughter and the VP's son killing that lady? And Mike and the drunk marine.

Bloody painful it is. I don't care about them!

Music in that last scene sounded like the Deus Ex theme :lol:

I'm watching this for the sake of watching it. That episode was OK though.
