Could the compulsion we all feel to keep watchingHomelandbe better surmised?

And quite honestly, it should have been wrapped up much sooner.

And so far, this Pakistani relocation has only been improving its prospects.

Hes drunk in the morning, and openly defiant and sexist to his new boss.

Boyds Secretary Robins is a far more intriguing presence on the show.

Carrie Mathison screwed up big time and used inside CIA baseball to land this homerun gig.

Spooks are spooky, and Carrie represents the potentially worst aspects of the vocation.

As two women stuck together, the jockeying for supremacy should be a benefit forHomeland.

Carrie doesnt want him either.

Oh, how I cannot wait until he shows up again next week like Carries loathsome guardian angel.

Carrie just used a favor; she should know better than to expect Saul is leaving anytime soon.

Indeed, her hijab is even gone, as she has become increasingly westernized.

It doesnt hurt that it reveals more easily Nazanin Boniadis beauty all the more.

How could we not as it will inevitably come to light that Carrie and Faraarethe CIA?

And she is not wrong.

But that is probably why Quinn is returning to her.

Looking exhausted and haggard, Quinn could be mistaken for the lost cause that Brody appeared in season one.

He let Sandy die to protect Carrie.

It is a soapish realization, but totally justifiable in this context.

But narrative convenience aside, it brings us back to the moment of truth for Quinn and the series.

And she convinces him to come to Islamabad.

It is in this moment that I realize there is no happy ending now for Peter Quinn.

Any chance he had of salvaging his life and conscience was sold along with his soul to Carries pleading.

But hey, she flashed that oh-so fragile smile for the first time this season.

Quinn never stood a chance.

Similarly, considering how invested I currently am in season four, neither do we.

AndGoogle+, if thats your thing!
