Previously, on Homeland - We have to buy time, 40 minutes, maybe an hour, till they're in the air.

- I'm not leaving you.

- I agreed with Saul.

If things go wrong, this is the plan.

What, to allow them to f*cking catch you?

[BOTH GRUNT]

Carrie Mathison, you're just going to leave her here?

Ms.

Martin, what was your most recent operation?

We tried to compromise your president and push her out of office.

OMINOUS MUSIC [PILLS RATTLE]

Your medication.

How do you wanna spend the rest of your days here?

Reading nice books that Alexander brings you and exercising in the yard or going mad, locked up in an asylum?

No one back in Moscow is much in the mood to negotiate, anyway.

Maybe it's better if you wait a few months.

I can't wait a few months.

I don't even know if she'll be alive in a few months.

No, I wanna wean myself.

Maybe a half.

[PILLS RATTLE]

[CARRIE PANTING]

Blood work?

Tomorrow.

[PHONE RINGING DISTANTLY]

Sorry.

No, come on in.

Have a seat.

Is Doug [JIM]

I'm sitting in for Doug.

Jim Turrow.

You're his supervisor.

Is that right?

You want anything to drink?

Uh, no.

No, I'm good.

Okay if I ask you a few questions?

Sure.

You were detained in Russia for 213 days?

Yes.

[CLEARS THROAT]

And you were interrogated for the first Uh, 30ish Who was your interrogator?

Um, a colonel named Sergei Tobokov, most of the time, anyway.

GRU.

Why'd he stop?

All of this is in the file.

It's a big file.

Can you tell me why he stopped interrogating you?

[SIGHS]

I think because I threw my feces at him.

And was that strategic?

No, no.

I I I was in the midst of a florid psychosis.

They withheld my medication and it took about 20 days for me to devolve into a not very helpful subject, um, but they kept at it for another week or so.

I can't give you an exact figure.

After that, it's all either blank or a series of images that don't much comport with reality.

Um, if we're doing this the slow way, may maybe I will take some water.

Doug informs me you'd like to be reinstated at the agency.

Yes.

Yes, I would like that very much.

A security clearance isn't an option with upwards of 180 days unaccounted for.

Yeah, I know that.

That's why I've been working so hard with Dr.

Foley and Doug, just trying to fill in the gaps.

Did they give you the impression that wasn't the case?

No.

Did they tell you you failed your polygraph?

Deception indicated.

So you're gonna have to bear with me.

Um which questions?

You said it was usually Tobokov but not always.

I'd like to know which questions, please.

Quite a few, actually.

Such as?

Have you ever conspired with a foreign intelligence officer or service?

FOREBODING MUSIC [BREATHING HEAVILY]

Wh so so what does that mean?

Are are you accusing me of something?

Could mean a lot of things: giving up sources and methods, working for the enemy.

You tell me.

My memory doesn't distinguish between what was real and and what wasn't.

You get that, right?

The polygraph doesn't care if you were delusional.

It says you were lying.

[SIGHS]

I edit my answers, because I don't trust my own brain.

That's what it's picking up.

Maybe.

We expected that going into this.

Dr.

Foley and Doug both said it was a possibility.

Why is he acting like this is incriminating?

We expected it.

[MUFFLED SPEECH]

You wanna jump in here?

[JIM MUFFLED]

Sit down, please.

You did admit to giving up the location of a safe house in Beirut.

Yeah, one that hasn't been active for decades.

I believe at that point I had been kept awake for 96 hours.

- What about assets?

- What about them?

Did you ever reveal the identity of an asset?

No.

Maybe somebody who d*ed ten years before.

No, assets have families.

I wouldn't do that.

You sure?

How much more clearly can I say this?

I did not.

Ms.

Mathison, how can you be so sure if there's 180 days of your life you don't remember?

[CHAIR CREAKS]

DRAMATIC MUSIC - - [INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS]

[SAUL]

Sorry to keep you waiting.

Parties are prepared to work through dinner tonight.

Should we take that as a positive sign?

Just getting the Taliban to the table has taken nine years.

So the fact they're sitting down with the Afghan government at all is a positive.

Come on, Saul, make some news.

It's been three weeks.

At least give us a sense of how it's going so far.

It's going; from what I understand, there's a nice lamb kabsa on the menu tonight.

- Ha.

- Okay.

How 'bout off the record then?

Sure.

[WOMAN]

Well, the list of missed opportunities for peace in Afghanistan is long.

What do you see as the main obstacles to a deal?

Well, for one thing, America hasn't got a whole lot of good options.

We're not staying forever.

President's made that abundantly clear.

We can't just walk away either.

Why not?

Well, our forces out past a critical point, Kabul falls in six weeks.

[WOMAN]

General Edwards told me six months.

Trillion dollars spent, more than 2,000 lives lost it's a U. S.

surrender any way you look at it.

Other issue is the Taliban itself.

It's not clear they have anything to gain by a political settlement.

What do you mean, exactly?

Only reason to cut a deal is to get us to leave sooner than later.

Which you just said isn't an option.

Not without serious security guarantees in place before we go.

- [MAN]

And what's wrong with that?

- Nothing, if you think the Taliban will abide by the terms of an agreement.

And will they?

Your guess is as good as mine.

President Warner seems confident enough.

Well, the President's an optimist.

Me, I'm a spy.

And his National Security Advisor.

Don't remind me.

[MAN CHUCKLES]

[WHISPERED]

G'ulom's making a statement.

Sorry, I gotta go.

More later.

What's he gonna say?

Do we know?

No idea.

His office only just announced that he was doing the press conference.

This can't be good.

[ABDUL ON TV]

But we are lions, brothers and sisters.

Other animals in the jungle are afraid of even a sick lion and stay away from him.

We are lions.

The United States should treat us as lions.

And we demand nothing less.

Instead, our president and foreign minister have been tricked.

Tricked into promising to release more than 1,000 Taliban prisoners of w*r, 12 of them responsible for the b*mb hidden inside an ambulance and k*lled nearly 100 citizens last month in Kabul.

I want you to know I am in charge of these prisoners, and I will never agree to their release.

Never.

Not even a single one.

TENSE MUSIC [BIRDS CHIRPING]

[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE]

Robin, talk to me.

Phones started going off, and you can imagine what happened next.

Where's Agha Jan?

He threw down his credentials and he stormed off with the rest of the Taliban delegation.

I don't think he's coming back, Saul.

- I really don't.

- Which way they go?

Um [SAUL]

Agha Jan.

Agha Jan!

We told you, no prisoners, no talks.

I'm aware.

The very first thing we agreed to and now it is broken.

I understand you're angry.

I'm angry, but nothing is broken.

We agreed to a prisoner exchange upon successful completion of an agreement.

We are not there yet, not even close.

You heard G'ulom.

Vice President doesn't speak for the government.

You know that.

What is done is done.

Too bad.

[SAUL]

Agha Jan.

Leave now and it'll be years before we get back to this point, if ever.

I'm sorry, I truly am.

I have an idea.

What if I was able to accelerate the release of some of the prisoners in U. S. custody?

Say, 5 of the 32 at Guantanamo?

Would that change your mind?

You could do that?

I could try.

I would consider it if we get to choose which five.

Okay.

Then we'll stay for one week, but you still have to get G'ulom to change what he said.

[KEYBOARD CLACKING]

[SPEAKS FOREIGN LANGUAGE]

[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS]

I'll call you back from the office.

[CELL PHONE BEEPS OFF]

Give us a minute, will you?

Of course.

What's happened?

You know damn well.

[WOMAN]

I warned you.

It was only a matter of time before things fell apart.

There's falling apart and then there's pushing 'em off a cliff.

Pakistan had nothing to do with this.

We're not leaking details of these talks to anyone.

Please.

It wasn't me, and it wasn't anybody in my delegation.

[CHUCKLES]

You know, you almost make me believe you.

Then I remember Islamabad, the embassy, the two hours you stood down your response team, while 36 Americans were k*lled in cold blood.

Hey.

Jim Turrow, counterintelligence.

Hi, Jim, good to meet you.

- [DOUG]

And you know Dr.

Foley.

- [SAUL]

Hi.

Where are we?

[DR.

FOLEY]

Physically, she's in good shape.

Sleep is still an issue, but it's better than it was.

Her thyroid hasn't quite leveled out.

That's from?

[DR.

FOLEY]

The malnutrition.

It improves when she eats more or treat it with a pill?

[DR.

FOLEY]

Medication.

We're playing with the dosage.

That and the sleep both have an impact on mood regulation and memory access.

So we are hoping that her recall will improve as we go.

[DOUG]

There are still significant gaps in her story, but that's par for the course.

She's recovering more information every day.

It's not the gaps I'm concerned about.

[DOUG]

If you're worried about the polygraph, I would take it with a grain of salt.

It's not something we can ignore.

[DR.

FOLEY]

Polygraphs are unreliable.

"Deception indicated" can mean she's nervous or lying to herself.

Or it can indicate deception.

We have a long way to go.

This is just one data point.

Look, I I don't wanna dismiss your misgivings, but bringing in Mr.

Berenson may have been premature.

He didn't call me here.

Oh.

I misunderstood.

I'm here because I need Carrie in Kabul for a week or two.

- When?

- [SAUL]

Right away.

We're making progress here.

Put her in a w*r zone, we could be back to square one.

Terms of debriefing timeline or her mental state?

Both.

She unstable?

Not now.

It's an important mission.

I'm okay with a setback.

We may be dealing with a compromised officer here.

You know, she has a kid.

Mathison?

Yes.

You know, she signed away custody and walked into a bear trap in the middle of Moscow to stop an att*ck on our presidency.

Yes.

[SAUL]

Everyone breaks under interrogation, especially Russian interrogation.

They're good at it.

That's why our sources were protected and procedures changed after she was captured.

It's more complicated than that.

I'm well aware.

What I wanna know is, do you have anything other than a jumpy polygraph?

[FOOTSTEPS THUDDING]

Also, I'm a Russian agent, apparently.

So I heard.

Ridiculous.

You won't mind, then, if I pick your brain a bit.

Only if you think it's safe to be seen talking to me.

I'll take my chances.

Your old friend Abdul Qarid G'ulom just fired a broadside into the peace talks.

Yeah, I saw that.

I need him to publicly walk back his comments about the POWs.

Agreeing to their release is what got the Taliban to the negotiating table in the first place.

I assume the ambassador's already taken a run at him.

And the chief of station, got exactly nowhere.

Who's the current COS?

Mike Dunne.

What?

[SCOFFS]

You need an alpha to deal with an alpha.

- Mike's not that.

- No.

All right, give me a few days.

I'll come up with some options.

You don't have a few days.

Putting you on a m*llitary transport to Kabul tonight.

If you're up for it, that is.

You kidding?

Hell yes.

- Saul - Don't thank me yet.

Kabul isn't the place you knew before.

It's ten times more dangerous just walking around, and you'll be without any of your old assets.

Pulled from the field, huh?

The minute you were arrested in Moscow.

Everybody?

Ones you reported to headquarters, at least.

Saul, I report all my assets to headquarters, no matter who they are or how sensitive.

Of course you do.

Come on, let's get you packed up, ready to go.

Hey, Mike, it's Turrow.

You heard from Saul Berenson by any chance?

No, what's up?

[JIM OVER PHONE]

I could be wrong, but I think you got a bad situation coming your way.

Bad how?

A compromised officer.

[MIKE OVER PHONE]

Who is it?

Your old boss, Carrie Mathison.

TENSE MUSIC Piotrowski's doing hardware maintenance.

We're gonna provide support so he can repair or replace.

We leave at 22:00.

Whole thing will be done under cover of darkness, which should afford us a measure of security.

This is bullshit.

Show him where the riverbed's at.

Okay, look, every time we cross the six-one, we get hit.

Last couple of times, we lost a guy.

We'll take it slow 'cause you're not used to the altitude, but we're gonna cross the riverbed right about here that's fairly exposed.

How?

By unilaterally drawing down your combat troop levels to zero?

Hasan Hakhami is down there somewhere.

He's the one calling the sh*ts in a hideout in Pakistan that we can't find, on a phone that we can't tap.

He's the guy that slaughtered 36 of our people in Islamabad.

I watched him do it.

You were there, at the embassy?

[MOTORBIKE BUZZES]

[LOCK CLICKS]

It's not that you went out, it's that you went out without informing anybody.

- Mike - And don't give me any bullshit about source protection or "better to ask forgiveness than permission".

I don't need anybody's permission.

I'm here on behalf of the National Security Advisor.

[MIKE]

God damn it, Carrie.

There are three teams out there right now risking their lives to find you.

Well, I didn't ask for that either.

Well, for your sake, I hope it was worth it.

Wh what's that supposed to mean?

That you got what you needed, because G'ulom's office called.

Your meeting's been rescheduled.

- For when?

- This morning.

Six hours from now.

- f*ck.

- Yeah.

Jenna will be here at 8:45 to pick you up.

Hey, Mike.

I need to ask you something.

What?

About Russian cooperation with the Taliban.

How real is it?

Real enough.

What does that look like, exactly?

m*llitary aid, advisors?

Both.

What about intelligence?

Are they sharing intelligence?

You bet, anything to piss us off.

It's what the Kremlin lives for.

I see.

Why do you ask?

I don't know.

I just I'm trying to get the lay of the land, I guess.

Where were you tonight, Carrie?

Well, maybe you can tell me how it relates to Russia, then.

How what relates?

You're here to leverage G'ulom, but you're asking Russia.

Jesus, Mike, not you too.

What the hell'd they tell you?

That you tanked a polygraph.

I was in Ghazni, okay, meeting a guy who used to run against the insurgents.

He mentioned a GRU contact in the area.

- Who?

- Well, he wasn't naming names, was he?

Okay.

Okay.

[INHALES SHARPLY]

You look tired.

You should get some rest.

Big day tomorrow.

[YELPS]

Just your CamelBak.

It's water.

Ha.

I thought that fucker hit me.

It's water or piss.

It ain't blood.

[CHUCKLES]

I thought that m*therf*cker hit me.

- [LAUGHS]

Where the hell are those air assets?

One minute out.

[GRUNTS]

[g*nf*re CONTINUES]

Coming down from Sar Ridge, where else?

In broad daylight?

Nobody got hit?

My pack got hit, blew my f*cking water open.

You pissed yourself?

No, my actual water pack.

He f*cking pissed himself.

[BOTH LAUGH]

No, I didn't.

ONE CASUALTY: water transport apparatus.

Cable Guy, he's like a he's like a lucky f*cking charm.

Cable Guy.

You're like a frosted Lucky Charm, man.

You're all right.

[CHUCKLING]

Look at his face.

He's still freaked out.

[LAUGHS]

[INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER]

DRAMATIC MUSIC Heh.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

[MAN]

Thank you.

[INDISTINCT]

Here you go.

Ms.

Mathison, this way, please.

The Vice President is completing another meeting.

- He will be ready in a moment.

- Thank you.

You okay?

Mike told me you were out late last night.

I'm fine.

You know you're not going in there with me, right?

I'm sure you're smart enough to realize the Vice President's not opening up with some female in the room he's never met before.

JAZZ MUSIC Yevgeny Gromov is here.

Everything that happened in Russia, it's off limits.

We need eyes and ears on her the whole time.

This may actually be possible.

So, you've gotta know where he can compromise, where to hold the line.

It's not too late to end the w*r.

I'm counting on you.

I'm still putting the pieces together.

You were off the grid for more than 90 minutes.

I lost 7 months of my life!

Don't let her out of your sight.

I think you remember more than you're saying.

[SHOUTING INDISTINCTLY]

- Ms. Mathison?

- Yes.

Come with us please.

You have a traitor in your camp.

Those are Taliban k*lling my guys.

- Get out of our country.

Leave us alone.
