Homeland

Previously on "Homeland"...

We always assumed Simone would run to David Wellington.

And when she did, it confirmed our suspicions.

But what if that was our mistake,

designing an operation with a predetermined result in mind?

What if it isn't David Wellington at all?

What if her contact is someone else?

‐What do you want? ‐ ( Saul ) Yevgeny Gromov.

Lucasville‐‐fake news that sparked the massacre.

You think that was Yevgeny's handiwork?

I do.

And you want me to help find him?

I do.

I had an ex that was bipolar.

Is that why you broke up?

We broke up 'cause I drank too much.

On March 30th, I was told to withdraw money from these places

and leave it in Hazelton.

‐We need to know who this is. ‐A senior White House official.

You mean David Wellington.

‐Simone is lying. ‐What are you talking about?

She's full of shit, and they are this close

to giving her immunity, which means they want her

to testify in open hearing.

At that point, the damage to the presidency is done.

Whoever's bankrolling this woman also wants

McClendon's murder pinned on the White House.

Tell me, how'd you find out she was in West Virginia

‐in the first place? ‐She got a parking ticket there.

No, I mean, who brought it to your attention?

‐ ( Carrie ) Dante did. ‐You say you're old friends.

The two of you just bumped into each other by chance?

When was this?

Right after I got fired by Keane.

Interesting coincidence.

Oh, God. Oh, my God.

Oh, my God. Fuck me. Fuck me. ( exhales sharply )

‐Take a breath, Carrie. ‐What I need to do

‐is nail that fucker. ‐Lay low.

Just don't communicate with him under any circumstances.

You're okay.

He saved our lives.

Yeah.

What was his name?

Carrie, you're not yourself.

You don't have my condition.

I'm dealing with it. I‐I've been dealing with it

since I was 22.

She said no one at work could know. She's bipolar.

The mood of the country, it's not great.

Civil...War.

Madam President, please!

You have to put a stop to this!

It's only getting worse.

Is there no fucking line?

Ridiculous lies and accusations.

The White House is in crisis mode.

We're talking about information warfare.

Our country is under attack.

The time to rise up is now!

I swore an oath to protect it.

Just think of me as a light on the heavens,

a beacon, steering you clear of the wrongs.

What happened to 12 hours out cold, guaranteed?

I don't think he saw anything.

Yeah, he did. He saw Stein's ugly face, which, lucky for us,

sent him straight back into unconsciousness.

I don't know about you, but I wasn't done yet.

‐Me either. ‐I got all the downloads.

Yeah? Well, let's hope you got something,

'cause so far, we got nothing.

I gotta figure out a way to get us back in there.

Or not. Look, that's the kind of shit

you get away with once, at most. Anyone want breakfast?

Yeah, sure. Oh, fuck! I've gotta get home.

My sister's gonna kill me. Fuck.

Can I come in?

Actually, I was just on my way out.

So what is it?

‐Where'd you meet Simone Martin? ‐Look, Saul‐‐

Indulge me.

We met at a conference, in Budapest four years ago.

‐What kind of conference? ‐A conference.

"Preparing Candidates for Democracy."

We were on a panel together.

And?

It was the only event we made it to all week.

We spent the rest of the time in her room.

Can we sit down?

Saul, how‐‐how long is this gonna take?

I got an 8:00 I gotta get to.

I really think you'll want to sit down.

Simone Martin is scheduled to testify

in front of Paley's committee in three days.

Yeah, and swear to God,

I have no idea what she's even gonna say.

I believe you...

...because I do know what she's going to say.

She will say, under oath,

that you gave her $50,000

as payment for the murder of General McClendon.

That's bullshit.

I know.

Why?

Why is she doing this to me?

So we're clear...

She is not doing it to you.

Simone Martin is an agent of the Russian government.

A what?

An agent of Russian military intelligence,

the G. R. U.

Her testimony is an effort to topple this administration.

I've been involved with a Russian agent?

Almost certainly.

Which is why I need your complete cooperation.

What I just told you is currently a theory.

We need it to become a fact.

Everything you know about Simone Martin

that might conceivably be relevant, tell me.

David.

David.

( indistinct conversation, utensils clinking )

Hey. What's for breakfast?

I'm making eggs.

‐Can I help? ‐ ( Maggie ) We got it.

‐Fresh orange juice maybe? ‐ ( Bill ) Yeah, we got that, too.

Jos, take over.

‐What's this about? ‐You know,

you say that you're tired of having

the same conversation over and over,

but from what you do, it must be your great joy in life.

‐Believe me, it's not. ‐You're not a child.

‐I know. ‐You had your bad girl years.

‐It's time to grow out of them. ‐You know what? Fuck you.

Really? You're really gonna go there?

We had no idea where you were all night.

‐I told you, Franny worries. ‐So tell her I'm fine.

‐I don't know that. ‐ ( huffs ) Look, you say

‐I should work... ‐I said get a job.

‐...so I work. ‐This... ( sighs ) is not working,

‐in any sense of the word. ‐Yeah, for me either.

Well, why don't you think about that,

whether you actually wanna be a part of this family or not?

Because you know what? We have had it,

all of us, including your daughter.

‐Are you okay? ‐Where was she?

I don't know, sweetie.

Why doesn't she like to be here?

I don't know that either.

Your mom is, uh, under a lot of pressure at work.

What work?

‐ ( Carrie ) We're going.

‐No, you're not. ‐Franny, put your coat on.

‐That's not the deal. ‐What deal? There is no deal.

She's my daughter, not yours.

You don't want to do this.

Oh, everything's secret now? Like it's suddenly too upsetting

to talk out loud? You drag me from the kitchen...

‐She didn't drag you. ‐You know what? You're right.

She didn't literally drag me.

Thanks very much, Mister "I've had it."

Thanks for the hospitality. You've served your time.

‐Where will you go?

Get off of me!

Promise you won't yell?

So where you been all night?

‐Out. ‐With Carrie?

She told me about the surveillance, Max.

What surveillance?

The surveillance you put in at Wellington's,

and I just took out. The surveillance that

let you know Simone Martin is running some kind of scam.

I told Carrie to back off, let me handle it now, but...
