homeland | the final countdown | “shalwar kameez” “There is something very powerful about undeniable truths—those desires that can’t really be changed, even if they can be controlled. But there’s also something really painful about them, and it’s mostly the pain that I found myself focusing on. It’s not that the relationship is interesting because it’s romantic—I’m finding myself drawn to the dynamic between Quinn and Carrie because it’s complicated. And because despite its other flaws, Homeland has paid a lot of attention to the way these two characters are growing, whatever dynamic Quinn and Carrie have and are developing is pretty different from what she had with Brody.” —Sonia Saraiya

Does Ayaan really rub it in up there that he's had great sex with Carrie (a few times) and you've only had one kiss and a few hugs? Or did he graduate to heaven from purgatory long ago?

He tried but we all know the sex wasn’t “great”. Not if you ask Carrie. The kid never had the #slowhand moves or talent.

homeland | the final countdown | “the drone queen” “Indeed, while Homeland has always exhibited some sense of unease about American foreign involvement, I can’t recall the show ever being quite as damning in its assessments as it is here. Everywhere you turn, there is a character criticising US foreign policy, from Saul – now working in the private sector – denouncing the conflict in Afghanistan as ‘a one-year war waged 14 times,’ to the pilot involved in the air strike calling Carrie and her fellow decision-makers ‘fucking monsters.’ And while in previous series such criticism might have been tempered with a cartoonish villain – the moustache-twirling likes of Abu Nazir and Javadi – this time there doesn’t seem to be one; just a bereaved student, Aayan, wanting to be left alone.” --Gwilym Mumford

homeland | the final countdown | “super powers” “Back at the cabin she details to JoBrody the warning signs that she's gone too far off the deep end: incoherence, talking too fast, and belligerence. He's all like, ‘Yup. No prob. I got this,’ but the next thing we know Carrie, who has snorted a bunch of caffeine, is sitting cross-legged at the center of a circle of headshots like a GD poltergeist. But, whatever, he's got this.” —Justine Harman

homeland | the final countdown | “about a boy” “What’s the more alarming behavior: crying during sex or pretending to cry during sex? Carrie Mathison did one of these things this week during her manipulation of young Pakistani asset Aayan, but it’s to Homeland’s credit that it’s nearly impossible to know which it was.” —Price Peterson
