Air and naval forces of the United States...
launched a series of strikes against terrorist facilities-
Pan Am Flight 1 03 crashed into the town of Lockerbie.
He has sanctioned acts of terror in Africa, Europe and the Middle East.
This wiII not stand, this aggression against Kuwait.
...his relentless pursuit of terror.
We will make no distinction—
The U.S.S. Cole was attacked while refueling in the port of Aden.
This was an act of terrorism.
It was a despicabIe and cowardIy act.
The next number we're gonna swing for you is one of the good oI' favorites.
...untiI something stops him.
l'm just making sure we don't get hit again.
We got a plane crashed into the World Trade Center.
...thousands of people running—
We must, and we wiII, remain vigiIant at home and abroad.
What the fuck are you doing?
Fuck! l missed something once before.
l won't- l can't let that happen again.
lt was 1 0 years ago. Everyone missed something that day.
Yeah, everyone is not me.
Once you've got to this position.
Previously on HomeIand.
Fatima, teII me what you know about Abu Nazir.
He's meeting my husband tomorrow.
Here in Beirut.
You can kiII them both.
I didn't want her here in the first pIace. She's not weII.
l don't know if this woman's for real or if Carrie wants her to be for real.
The way I am now, I wouIdn't trust me either.
But the Carrie who recruited her, that one I beIieve.
- Hi, Roya. - Congressman Brody.
I'm a friend of Nazir's.
I wiII not heIp you in the kiIIing of innocent civiIians.
I met a young man yesterday.
Lost both his arms in Iraq.
They have a fund-raiser coming up...
and I thought that we couId host it together.
Red Team Two, fire discipIine is two shots each.
Targets are two in robes.
Holy shit, it's him.
Fire.
Somebody warned him.
l'm a congressman.
I cannot be texting secret messages...
whiIe I am surrounded by the fucking Joint Chiefs.
- Is anyone in the apartment? - No.
- Give me your keys. - Carrie.
- We just missed Abu Nazir. - Get in the car.
We can't Ieave here without getting what's in there.
Carrie. I got you.
My name is Nicholas Brody.
By the time you've watched this, you'll have read a lot of things about me.
This way. Now.
That briefcase is cIearIy marked as a dipIomatic bag.
- Do not open it. - Key, pIease.
SauI Berenson. Jewish, yes?
American.
A Lebanese security officiaI must know better than to do that-
unIess he's actuaIIy working for someone eIse.
Like, say, HezboIIah.
If you don't put that back and aIIow me to continue to my flight...
you'II be the cause of a serious dipIomatic incident with the United States.
So, pIease, take a moment.
Think carefuIIy.
Never come back to Lebanon.
Sir, I need you to put the briefcase...
in the overhead bin for takeoff, pIease.
I'II do it. Just give me a second.
Jesus, Dad. What?
What the heII are you doing? Do you even know what time it is?
- I'm writing a report. - At 3:20 a.m.?
What? Have you been up aII night doing this?
You need to put this away and go to sIeep.
I can't. Not yet. I have to get this done, and it has to be done right.
For crying out Ioud. Carrie, you have a disease.
Dad, pIease, not now.
And in case you've forgotten what I know...
your doctor has toId you a miIIion times...
sIeep is one of the most, if not the most important-
I know. I know. I'm nearIy finished. I promise.
- How much Ionger? - Two hours, max.
One. One more hour.
- Fine. - You can't do this to yourseIf anymore.
You just can't.
I'm okay.
In fact, I feeI pretty great.
Wired is what you are.
There's a difference.
- Point taken. - One more hour.
One more.
Sorry. It was just-
It was here on the tabIe and, uh—
And just jumped out at you?
I know how much you hate taIking about this stuff in pubIic.
Um, I was just curious what you were pIanning to say tonight.
What do you think?
"By my third year in captivity...
I knew that this was where I was gonna die...
that I had to accept that, make peace with it...
so that's what I did.
I prepared to die.
But I didn't die.
Somehow I got to come home to a wife and two kids...
I'd taIked myseIf into beIieving wouId be just fine—
no, better off- without me.
I mean, how couId they reaIIy know me anymore?"
Too much?
WeII, it's just-
It's the first time I've ever heard it.
I, um—
I never knew this is how you feIt.
Yeah.
You're right. I don't reaIIy Iike taIking about it.
- Brody. - What?
- I didn't mean— - It's okay, Jess. It's aII right.
No. No, it's not.
Hey.
I know you're doing this event for me.
I want you to know I appreciate it.
Thank you.
Hey, Jess, wait.
- Wait. - SeriousIy?
You want me to stop?
No.
FoIIow me.
Hey.
Hey, Brody.
SIow down. SIow down.
Look at me.
Go sIow.
Yeah.
Like that.
Yeah.
Hey, aren't you home earIy today?
Teachers' conference day.
What's your excuse?
- Hey. - Xander.
Day off at your schooI too?
Coincidence, huh?
Or maybe not.
I aIready graduated Iast year. It's aII good.
So, uh, sIow day in Congress, Dad? Or-
Don't you have homework to do?
I aIready did it.
It's work trying to get ahoId of me.
Is that that cup that Chris made for Dad?
Shit.
I got your text.
We have a probIem and no time, so pIease just Iisten.
The C.I.A. are in the middIe of processing inteIIigence from their operation in Beirut.
They're very cIose to finding out about our friend in Gettysburg.
- The taiIor? - You need to go there now...
and move him to a safe house 60 miIes further west.
Why don't you just caII him and teII him to move?
Because I might unnerve him unnecessariIy.
He needs to be Iooked in the eye and reassured that he's in safe hands.
Why me? Why not you?
Because he doesn't know me. He knows you.
You're the onIy one he knows.
How can you be sure the C.I.A. hasn't aIready sent somebody out there?
Because I'm sure. They found an e-maiI...
that mentions a contact in Gettysburg.
They're onIy just now putting together a Iist of suspects in the area.
ls there a problem, Nicholas?
Yeah, I'd say there's a fucking probIem.
I am giving a speech at a dinner for wounded veterans tonight in D.C....
which the vice president is attending.
If you go there now, you'II make it back easiIy.
- You move him as fast as possible. - I don't beIieve this.
Must I remind you, he's the one man who knows the truth about you?
Take the taiIor to 1 24 Mount ChapeI Road, Somerset.
The key's in the bird feeder on the tree to the right of the garage, around back.
Repeat the address back to me.
1 24 Mount ChapeI Road, Somerset.
- I heIp you? - HeIIo, Mr. Mathison. Is Carrie here?
Oh, I got it. Hey, Danny.
C.I.A. never heard of e-maiI?
- Uh, you making eggs, Dad? - It's Iunchtime.
A sandwich then?
Sure.
- Hey, Danny, sorry about that. - How you doing, Carrie?
- I'm good. - Is that it?
- Yep. AII 1 8 pages. - I'II get this to everybody right away.
- What time is the debrief with the group? - Uh, scheduIed for 6:00.
So Iate?
Estes is at an emergency threat-IeveI briefing aII day.
- What's going on? - Um, nothing specific- yet.
But the top brass huddIe every singIe day now.
Hey, can I say...
what you just did in the fieId was pretty damn impressive.
Thanks, Danny. I appreciate that.
I'II text you Iater to confirm the 6:00 p.m. debrief.
Thanks. I Iook forward to it.
PickIe on your sandwich?
As-salaam alaikum.
Alaikum as-salaam.
- You. - I need you to pack a bag, fast.
A bag? What for?
The C.I.A. know about you. I've gotta get you out of here.
- How do you know this? - I'II expIain in the car. Hurry.
No, teII me now.
The C.I.A. had an operation in Beirut to kiII Abu Nazir.
He escaped, but they found inteIIigence that may Iead to you.
- Where are you taking me? - To a safe house.
How do you know it's safe?
Hey, aII I know is you're not safe here anymore.
Who sent you?
Look, I'm here to heIp you. Get a bag. Let's go.
Fuck. Forget the bag. Go.
Go!
Keep waIking.
Get in the car. Don't make me say it twice.
Bob kisses his wife and chiIdren good-bye.
Uh, Bob drives to work in a red car.
Bob drives to work in a red car.
Are you okay, Miss Carrie?
What, LuIu?
What's wrong? No text from boyfriend, eh?
Hi. This is Danny Galvez.
Please leave a message.
Danny, it's Carrie.
Uh, it's nearIy 5:00, and I never heard back about the debrief...
so I'm heading out now.
Uh, caII if anything's changed.
Thanks.
What happens when we get there?
I drop you off. You wait.
- They said that? - I'm guessing.
- So you don't know? - It's an educated guess.
I wait for what?
WeII...
I imagine they want to get you out of the country as fast as possibIe.
You imagine. You guess.
Take a breath.
If it wasn't for me, you'd probabIy be on your way to Guantánamo by now.
You think if they caught me that I wouId taIk?
They're not gonna catch you now.
You know what eIse they didn't teII me?
Your name.
Suit yourseIf.
We'II be there in 30 or 40 minutes...
and you'II be somebody eIse's probIem.
BasseI.
My name is BasseI.
Fuck!
Oh, you gotta be shitting me.
There's no fucking jack.
So once the tabIe staff's done...
we can do a finaI Iight and sound check.
And did you bring Nick's speech for the teIeprompter team?
Oh, I didn't even think of that.
- Um, he has it with him. - Oh.
WeII, where is he? Can we send someone to get it?
Yeah, I'II caII him. Uh, he's at his office.
Jessica, you Iook so nervous. ReIax.
Listen to me. You're a beautifuI woman.
Nick is so charismatic.
You're a great American story that's just beginning.
- Did you Ioosen the wheeI? - This one won't move.
Here, give me that thing.
AII right.
I need you to get in the car.
Start driving it forward.
ReaI sIow, okay?
UntiI the wood straightens and it takes the weight of the car, Iike a jack.
Okay? Go.
OnIy needs a IittIe gas.
Just ease the car forward.
I'II teII you when to stop.
AII right.
No! Whoa! Take it easy. Easy.
Okay, that's good.
Hey.
Where are you? l called your office.
- They said you never went there. - Right. Right.
I, uh— I was on my way out to the office...
and I got a caII from the whip's office...
teIIing me to hauI my ass out to the district.
Your district? To do what?
Oh, to, uh—
to reassure some union foIk we haven't forgotten about 'em.
Jess, l said l'll be back on time, and l will.
Okay?
You've got to see this room, Brody.
lt's amazing. They've done such a beautiful job.
Right. That's great. I can't wait.
...just get back to this meeting now.
Oh, I aImost forgot. The teIeprompter guy needs a copy of your speech.
l don't need a teleprompter. l got it all in my head.
Yeah. Yeah, I'm sure. I'm sure.
Yeah, I'm sure.
Trust me.
It's not as though I haven't done anything Iike this before.
Well, drive safe.
Um, I wiII see you in an hour and a haIf.
Copy that.
I was coming to get that...
to finish changing the wheeI.
It's okay. I'II get the wheeI. You get the spare.
- Hi, Lorraine. - HeIIo, Carrie. You're earIy.
We weren't expecting you untiI 6:00. Thanks, CarI.
- Where's David? - In a meeting. He'II be back soon.
I'm going to the bathroom. I'II be right back.
...in Abu Nazir's network, which indicates that right now...
Iran has mustered aII hands on deck to strike us on our own—
I'm sorry.
Am I Iate? I was toId 6:00 p.m.
Which wouId, in fact, mean I'm 1 5 minutes earIy.
Carrie, you can't be in here.
What's going on, David?
- You're doing the debrief without me? - PIease.
AIways debrief with the person who was in the fieId, David.
- It's in the goddamn manuaI. - In this case, because it's you...
I decided to go ahead with the debrief using just the report.
Because it's me? Meaning what, exactIy?
Meaning the detaiI of your report, as usuaI.
Quite frankIy, it's, uh— it's exceIIent.
Wh—
Why didn't anyone caII me?
I toId Danny to hoId off on that...
because I wanted to see you anyway.
Here I am.
PrivateIy.
To teII you what an amazing job you did for us in Beirut.
You mean Iike a— a pat on the back?
Thanks to you, we got this cIose to Abu Nazir...
and took out two of his top Iieutenants in the process.
He's stiII out there, David. We Iet him get away.
We need to be doing everything possibIe—
That's not... your concern anymore.
WeII—
What about aII that stuff I puIIed out of the Beirut apartment?
Can you at Ieast teII me if there was any actionabIe inteIIigence in that?
Between you and me?
Yes, there was.
That's it?
Carrie, you didn't come here today...
expecting to get reinstated, right?
What? No.
No, of course not.
- I don't know what to teII you— - You don't have to say anything, David.
- Come on. Let me waIk— - No, you have work to do. I'II see myseIf out.
No. You stay in the car, out of sight.
I need to go to the bathroom.
We're five minutes from the safe house. Put a knot in it.
I need more tobacco.
Hey. Can I get a pack of that tobacco...
some papers, and the rest on gas, pIease.
Motherfucker.
BasseI!
What did those asshoIes do to you now?
I don't want to taIk about it, Dad.
Not tonight. PIease?
Where are you going?
I'II be back for the rest tomorrow.
Um—
I'm going home, Dad.
AII I know is, I need to figure out what to do...
with the rest of my Iife now, and I can't do that here...
with you aII just hovering over me.
A good night's sIeep is what you need.
In my own bed.
BasseI!
There's nothing to be afraid of.
Come on, buddy.
There's nothing to be afraid of. Come out.
BasseI?
God!
What are you doing? I'm trying to fucking heIp you!
Shit!
AII right. Got to stop the bIeeding.
You got a handkerchief? Can you hear me?
Can you hear me? You got a handkerchief?
HoId it there. HoId on. Hard. Hard.
PIease.
- Take me to hospitaI. - No.
I take you to a hospitaI, I might as weII just hand you over to the C.I.A.
I don't want to die.
You're not gonna die, so kiII that thought right fucking now.
I have a famiIy, in Syria.
Wife, daughter.
That's good. That's good. That's good.
Keep thinking about your daughter.
She'II give you the strength you need.
PIease— hospitaI.
I'm taking you to the safe house...
and we're gonna caII for heIp from there.
You can Ieave me outside the hospitaI.
I won't say anything to anyone.
No. You know I can't do that.
Oh, God.
Hey, Jess.
Where are you? I've been trying to caII you. You're Iate.
The vice president is due to arrive any second now.
- I had a flat, Jess. - A flat?
- Where? - MiddIe of nowhere.
I don't know. MiIes from anywhere. I don't know.
What?
- Christ, Brody! - Hey, and guess what.
There's no jack in the car.
- Did you caII a tow truck? - Yeah, I caIIed a tow truck.
Where'd you teII 'em to go if you don't know where you are?
What?
Oh, I'm near, uh— out near, uh, CuIpeper.
Route 29.
That's miIes away. You're never gonna make it back in time.
What about your speech?
I don't know.
This isn't happening. It can't be.
HeIp.
What was that?
Brody?
Brody, are you there?
Yeah, l'm here. l'm here.
- What was that? - What was what?
You sound Iike you're out of breath.
I know.
Brody?
You're breaking up.
Brody?
Brody, are you there?
You know, l-l think l should try that tow truck again.
You promised you wouId be here.
I know. I'II see you Iater.
Shit.
WeII, what's the pIan?
Who am I supposed to go up there and introduce now?
Don't worry, sir. This is my mess.
HeIIo.
Um, my name is Jessica Brody.
My husband, Nick Brody- who, most of you know...
was rescued and returned to us...
after eight years as a prisoner of the terrorists—
had prepared a speech about the chaIIenges of coming home.
But I'm afraid he's had car troubIe...
and isn't gonna make it here tonight.
Fuckin' Brody.
Um, so I'm afraid this means you're stuck with me.
Car troubIe.
Pretty sure, when he was a prisoner in Iraq...
he never thought he'd have to deaI...
with something so humdrum as a flat tire again.
You know, fund-raisers and poIiticaI speeches...
are great and everything...
but I can't heIp thinking one of the best ways...
to heIp our wounded warriors starts with the famiIy.
Because one thing I do know-
I'd have been abIe to support my husband better if I'd been more ready.
After eight years of IoneIiness...
eight years of not seeing each other...
if someone had warned me how he'd Iook at me...
as if he didn't know me anymore...
how vioIent his nightmares wouId be...
that he wouId attack me in his sIeep...
um, how he didn't know...
what to say to the kids those first few weeks...
how hard intimacy of any kind wouId be for him—
If someone had actuaIIy warned me in pIain EngIish...
how hard coming home wouId be for him...
that I'd need to adjust my expectations—
What I'm saying is...
what if, with some of this money...
we couId set up a pIace where famiIies...
couId get ready for their veterans coming home?
An actuaI pIace where they couId Iearn from other famiIies...
who have been through— who are stiII going through it.
Because, in the end...
we're aII fighting this war together.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
God!
You hardIy said a word the whoIe way.
Want to taIk about it?
You coming in for a nightcap?
I better not. It's Iate.
I got an earIy start tomorrow.
You've aIways been there for me, Mike.
You were amazing tonight.
Good night.
Hey.
Maybe it was just car troubIe.
Maybe.
I'm just saying...
you might want to cut him some sIack.
- Cut him some sIack? - Hey, innocent tiII proven guiIty, Jess.
Are you aware that there was a weekend not Iong ago—
a whoIe weekend—
where Brody just didn't come home at aII?
You want to know why?
He was with that C.I.A. woman, the crazy one.
You know, Iet me be crystaI cIear.
He was fucking the bitch for a whoIe weekend.
And you want to know why I'm having a probIem...
beIieving this whoIe car troubIe story?
Wait. Back it up.
He fucked who?
I don't remember her name. Carrie something.
I don't know anymore.
I thought you weren't coming in.
Maybe just for one drink.
She kicked ass tonight, Brody.
I mean, she was fucking awesome.
I don't doubt it.
She's quite the hostess.
No.
I mean, she got up there and she gave a speech of her own.
You did?
I'II say good night then.
Jesus.
Where the heII have you been?
- You're soaking wet. - It was raining.
And there was no jack in the car.
Have you ever tried to change a tire without a jack?
Was there reaIIy a union meeting in your district today?
Yes.
Where? What town?
Don't answer that.
I don't want to hear another Iie.
I'm not Iying.
Wow. They just roII off your tongue, don't they?
One after the other.
I reaIIy thought we turned a corner this morning.
You're hiding something.
I can see it in your eyes.
- Now, either you teII me what is going on— - There's nothing going—
or I suggest you start Iooking for a hoteI room.
And whiIe you're at it...
you give this marriage some serious thought...
'cause I don't think I can do this anymore.
FinaIIy.
- You're not in Beirut? - Came straight here from the airport.
I hear you were turned away from the debrief at LangIey today.
I was the one who recovered that inteI.
He wouIdn't even Iet me present it.
I can onIy imagine how shitty that must have feIt.
StiII feeIs.
Before the Beirut trip, I reaIIy thought...
I'd finaIIy found a way to cope with being out of the Company.
Before you dig that hoIe any deeper...
I have to show you something.
- This your computer? - Yeah.
AII right.
Here.
You put it in.
I'II onIy fuck it up.
That's the one piece of inteI you recovered in Beirut...
that Estes and his mob haven't seen yet.
I came straight from the airport...
because I think you deserve to see it first.
My name is Nicholas Brody...
and l'm a sergeant in the United States Marine Corps.
People will say l was broken, l was brainwashed.
People will say that l was turned into a terrorist-
- Oh, my God. - taught to hate my country.
My action this day is against such domestic enemies.
The vice president, and members of his national security team...
who l know to be liars and war criminals-
- I was right. - responsible for atrocities...
- they were never held accountable for. - You were right.
This is about justice for 82 children...
whose deaths were never acknowledged...
and whose murder is a stain on the soul—
of this nation.
And l want to tell you about one of these children.
I was right.
