Carrie gets closer to the truth, and Peter Quinn’s storyline has an eerie new reality to it.
But does that make it good?
This Homeland review contains spoilers.
Nevertheless,Homelandis a TV series and a work of fiction.
For further evidence, consider how the Saul/Dar Adal/Allison Carr storyline has continued to progress with such mediocrity.
I have never warmed to Allison Carr being the predictable mole.
At least thats more entertaining, right24fans?
On that same page of hackneyed plotting, Dar Adal is behaving like a complete idiot.
But because of that remarkably dumb choice by Dar, he can defect to Israel.
Whether its by choice via his supposed laundry phone call or some other means remains to be seen.
Is it damning that I no longer care?
In fact, the only thing I did care about was Carrie following the breadcrumbs toward Allison.
I particularly liked his comment about how he and Carrie are different from normal grounded folks.
Youre either born with wings or youre not.
He implies to Carries soon-to-be-ex that he finds she is unstable and in need of firing.
Actually, forget about yawning.
This happens despitethe Russians knowing a full 30-ish hoursbefore that scenethat she would find her way to Amsterdam.
Thank you to the commenter Scott for bringing this to our attention.
