Homeland Page #4

The Pentagon said you both were dead.

And now they're refusing to give me any information about what happened to Tom.

What do you want to know? How he died.

He's gone.

Does it really matter how it happened? It does to me.

He was beaten to death.

Were you there? No.

Thank you for telling me.

I'm going home.

Want to be there in time for this barbecue.

Hold on a second.

Max, will you give us a minute? Max, step out of the van.

I didn't think that this was any of my business.

Now I'm thinking that it is.

Clozapine? I'm sorry.

Was I supposed to say something? Just tell me I'm not out here risking federal prison on behalf of a crazy person.

I am crazy.

It's not funny.

If anybody at the Agency finds out about this I've got a mood disorder, okay? I looked it up, Carrie.

Clozapine's an anti-psychotic.

I'm dealing with it.

I've-I've been dealing with it since I was 22.

- Does Saul know? - God, no.

No.

Nobody does.

Don't act so shocked.

I mean, it can't come as a complete surprise.

You know I love you, Carrie, but I got to be honest.

None of this is making me feel any better.

What are you saying? That I'm making this sh*t up? Well, maybe I am; you know, maybe it is all in my head, but you're in it now, Virgil, up to your f***ing neck, and so is your weird little brother, so don't even think about bailing on me.

You think for one minute you get away with this? I thought that once I had some proof Do you have any? Anything? Even suggesting that Sergeant Brody's what you think he is? No.

Then get a lawyer.

'Cause you're gonna need one when you report to the IG first thing in the morning.

- Saul, please - There isn't anything to say.

I-I'm just making sure we don't get hit again.

Well, I'm glad someone's looking out for the country, Carrie.

I'm serious I missed something once before; I won't I can't let that happen again.

It was ten years ago.

Everyone missed something that day.

Yeah, everyone's not me.

I understand that.

I doubt a grand jury will.

Come on, you recruited me, Saul.

You trained me.

You put me in the field.

Tell me what I can do to make this right between us.

What the f*** are you doing? Good-bye, Carrie.

Aw, f***! Sh*t.

Sh*t.

You know, I'm shaking his hand he's the vice president and I suddenly realize I don't even know the guy's name.

Hey.

Hi.

Geez, you don't call, you don't write We have to talk.

'Cause you can't keep ducking me.

I'm not ducking you.

I'm just trying to deal with the situation.

Yeah, well, you're not the only one.

Look I understand you want to do the right thing and I support you, but, Jess three days ago we were about to tell your kids.

We were talking about moving in together.

Mike, please.

Hey, you want me to forget it? You know, all you got to do is tell me that it wasn't great between us.

(indistinct chatter continues) He's my husband, Mike.

They're gonna burn.

The burgers.

Oh.

Right.

Here.

So, Mike's been a big help to your mom, huh? He comes around whenever she needs him.

You like him? Yeah, he's cool.

There you go.

One's for Mom.

Thanks.

Ow! I'm just saying that I think that somebody somewhere is looking at him right now and thinking congressman or senator or You know? Can I ask you a personal question? Don't you want to get a couple more drinks in me first? You're married? No.

But you wear a ring.

Oh, weeds out the guys looking for a relationship.

What? Uh, I I don't know, I guess I've never heard it put so bluntly before.

I just find it a lot easier not to screw things up with people I don't know.

Come on, you can't be all that bad.

What if I told you I betrayed my only true friend in the world today, just played him for a fool, put his 35-year career at risk? I would say that in this town you're in good company.

Yeah.

Another, please.

Coming right up.

These guys are pretty good.

You want to grab a table? I'd rather just get out of here.

Okay.

Where should we go? I'm done making the decisions.

You're in charge now.

Wow.

Okay, I like it.

Are you coming? Hey, Carrie, are you okay? What am I looking at here? His right hand.

He's just nervous.

No.

No.

Look again.

It's a pattern that repeats, like a musical phrase.

There.

That's hardly definitive.

No.

Just wait.

This is him outside his house.

And here he is at Andrews Air Force Base.

Okay, do you do you see? It happens whenever he's on camera, whenever he knows the world is watching it's the same sequence over and over again.

A code of some kind.

He's making contact, Saul.

He's sending a message to somebody a handler, a sleeper cell, somebody.

We should explore this further.

Let's get the crypto guys on it.

Pittman's team is the best plus, he knows how to be discreet.

I'll get his number.

So am I still going to jail? Not just yet.

What do you want to know? How he died.

Were you there? No.

- Did you ever meet him? - Abu Nazir? Was he ever present during any of your interrogations? Again.

No, I never met him.

Harder.

Shh..

Shh..
