No four words on television gets me as rock hard as Carrie Mathison saying "I'm off my meds"

Ingredients for a great Homeland episode: Carrie off her meds, walls full of random papers, cry face, sassy Saul, and of course Quinn being a BAMF.

I'm so glad it was Saul she was sleeping with and not some terrorist, makes it so much more interesting.

Love how the show is integrating the Russians into this. IRL the world is just as interconnected under the table.

So is Saul stepping out on Mira or are they separated/divorced?
I wish Carrie had hit the boyfriend with that shot. I'm beginning to think dude has only one expression. Such a bore.
Did anyone else want Astrid/Quinn to jump on each other tonight? I thought they were darkly sexy in that hallway scene. I'm looking forward to the Quinn/Carrie reunion, tho.

I love it when Carrie goes crazy! Also great episode - can't wait to see Carrie and Quinn's reunion. What were Saul and Dar Adal discussing towards the end?

A while ago, Quinn shot Carrie, and now she shot him. They're even, I suppose.

Interview with Alex Gansa from last week:
Q: Saul has a new sparring partner to contend with in Allison Carr (Miranda Otto). Does she really think she can outwit him?
Gansa: I have to refer you to episode three again. We find that character this season is a fascinating replacement part for Carrie in Saul’s life. It is not without its own twists and tensions.

I swear to god I wouldn't have been the slightest surprised if Carrie started speaking in some fucked up demon language during that outburst.
Superb acting.
