Homeland s03e02 Episode Script

Uh... Oh... Ah...

Air and naval forces of the United States launched a series of strikes against terrorist facilities- Pan Am Flight 103 crashed into the town of Lockerbie.
He has sanctioned acts of terror in Africa, Europe and the Middle East.
This will not stand, this aggression against Kuwait.
his relentless pursuit of terror.
We will make no distinction- The USS Cole was attacked while refueling in the port of Aden.
This was an act of terrorism.
It was a despicable and cowardly act.
The next number we're gonna swing for you is one of the good ol' favorites.
Until something stops him.
It was right in front of my eyes, and I never saw it coming.
We got a plane crashed into the World Trade Center.
thousands of people running- We must, and we will, remain vigilant at home and abroad.
You're the smartest and the dumbest fucking person I've ever known.
I'm not the one who got it wrong.
I'm the only one who got it right.
Take 'em.
Take 'em all.
Roll every available ambulance you've got to this position.
Previously, on Homeland: It's been 58 days since the attack on Langley in which 219 Americans lost their lives.
How can the CIA be expected to protect this country if it can't even protect itself? Her history of insubordination and mental illness might be more useful than a good performance in front of the select committee.
I won't do that.
I won't throw Carrie under the bus.
Dana has made great progress over the last month.
- She's doing well.
- For someone who got in a bathtub and tried to slit her wrists.
When can I see you again? His name is Majid Javadi.
The other six make up the network he put together to plan and carry out the attacks on Langley.
Take them.
Have you seen the paper yet? All right, now, the headline is, "CIA Officer Linked to Langley Bomber.
" I assume you've seen this.
We all know how we hate things getting in the press.
Unless of course we put them out there ourselves.
- Carrie, you're making a bad mistake.
- Fuck you.
Fuck all of you.
Perhaps you'd care to comment on the article in yesterday's paper.
The case officer in question, she's been diagnosed as bipolar.
A condition she concealed from her superiors for more than 10 years.
Did she conceal from you the fact that she was sleeping with Congressman Brody? I'm afraid she did, yes.
- Carrie.
- I need to talk to Saul.
Saul! - He's not here, Carrie.
- Saul! He's not here.
He left already.
He had some early meeting.
- With whom? - I don't know.
- We could call him.
- If I could call - why would I come all the way here? - Are you okay? - Tell Saul I came by.
I'm sure he knows.
- What is going on with you two? Hey.
- Saul told me about the incident.
- What incident? - At the restaurant.
- Oh, that.
- He said you were very upset.
- Yeah, I guess I was.
But you know, if I think about an incident that's upsetting to me it'd have to be when he sold me down the river in front of the fucking Senate select committee.
Now, that- That was upsetting.
- Be sure to tell him I came by.
- Carrie- He had his chance.
So they found nothing.
- So far.
- Out of all of this.
Including a damn laptop.
We're bringing in the specialist.
She'll find something.
There's a 9 year old dead.
She better.
Hello? - Is this Conference "B"? - Yeah.
- You're Fara? - Yes.
I'm Saul Berenson.
This is Peter Quinn.
Is something wrong? No.
I gotta take care of this.
Peter, you'll get her up to speed? Sure.
So how long have you worked here? - Since the first.
- Of the year? Of the month.
Eight days.
- Our transactions expert arrived.
- How is she? A kid.
In a head scarf.
Most of the banking division vanished in the explosion.
Ask for a specialist with language skills, that's what you get.
- So, what do you got? - It's Carrie.
She called a reporter.
Apparently, she thinks it's important they "hear her side of the story.
" She give any indication what that is? Not yet, but you know what she's gonna say.
We knew Brody was a terrorist all along.
He wore a suicide vest into a bunker with the vice president.
She tried to warn us.
Nobody would listen.
So call the editor.
Shut it down.
She's out for blood, Saul.
We keep her away from these guys, she just goes somewhere else.
Look.
We knew this might happen.
We planned for it.
I just wanted you to know I'm gonna stop her.
Okay.
I'd like you to acknowledge that I am recording this - and everything is on the record.
- I'm being recorded, I see the light.
- I want everything on the record.
- I'm Nicole Hung.
Here with - Carrie Mathison.
- You've been with the CIA 14 years.
- Yes.
- You told me - you had a falling out recently.
- What I said was I'm under attack.
A week ago you published a story that an unnamed CIA officer was in a romantic relationship with the Langley bomber.
- And is that officer you? - Yeah, you're missing the point.
No one at the CIA was in a relationship with the Langley bomber.
- Okay, wait.
According to my source- - The CIA.
I can't confirm that.
I don't know what conversation you expect to have if you won't acknowledge the fucking obvious.
The CIA gave you that story to set me up.
- For what? - The big lie.
Despite what they said, Nicholas Brody is not responsible for the explosion at Langley.
- You can prove this? - Yeah, that's why I'm here.
Did Saul Berenson know when he testified before the Senate? Of course he did.
Everything he said was bullshit.
I'm not the one who got it wrong.
I'm the only one who got it right.
And then, for the longest time, I couldn't get anyone at the CIA to believe me.
- Did you tell anyone I was coming here? - Just my editor.
Just your editor? Fucking Saul.
Carrie Mathison? D.
C.
Metro.
You need to come with us.
Three of you? You think that's enough? - It's standard procedure, ma'am.
- Yeah.
For what? What sort of bullshit charges did they make up? There's no charges, ma'am.
We've got a psychiatric detention order.
Do you understand what that is? Yeah, I understand.
That's not necessary.
Is it? You're entitled to a full commitment hearing.
This is complete bullshit.
You know that, right? Ma'am, please.
So you've been back home now, what, almost a week? How's that going? Is it a challenge? - Why would it be a challenge? - I don't know.
Re-entry.
Being back out in the world.
I'm not back out in the world though.
I'm stuck at home.
And why is that? Dana thinks that she's famous in a bad way.
The word is infamous.
Is that what you think? That you're infamous? - Okay.
No, I'm not.
- Well, which is it? Well, let's see.
My dad blew up the CIA.
He killed three hundred people.
They call it the second 9/11 and it was all anybody talked about for a month and a half.
What your dad did.
- Right.
- What about what you did? What I did? This by comparison, is like nothing.
I know what you mean by that, but it's not nothing.
That's why we're here, the three of us.
- So, what about you? - Me? - Same question: How are you doing? - I'm fine.
- Okay.
- Really.
I'm just glad that she's home.
Good.
I mean, there have been adjustments, but we knew there would be.
What kind of adjustments? She remodeled the bathroom where I did it.
I didn't.
Yeah, you did.
You remodeled the whole thing.
I didn't.
I didn't remodel it.
The blood wouldn't come out, I had to replace everything.
Which I did, myself, with a book.
We don't have to talk about that.
With you there.
Hi, I need to make an appointment for Thursday for Dr.
Richardson.
I miss you.
I miss you too.
Dana, come on.
- Carrie Mathison.
I'm Dr.
Harlan.
- Harlan.
I can read.
I'll be with you at your commitment hearing.
I'd like to explain- I know what a commitment hearing is.
I can't believe they're actually going through with it.
- I'm not sure what you mean.
- I mean, I get it.
Someone tries to tell the truth, you counter by calling them crazy.
I admire the move.
It's elegant.
But it's- It's unnecessary.
Tell them that.
I'm standing down.
- You're standing down.
- I learned my lesson.
So can I get out of here, please? It says here you stopped taking your meds.
Says where? What is that? - It's your medical history.
- According to whom? - Your doctors.
- Really? 'Cause no doctor of mine, one that I am actually seeing, would write that.
Did you stop taking your meds? I didn't- I didn't just stop taking my meds.
I have a routine to compensate.
A routine I have worked out with my actual doctor not some CIA shill who's trying to shut me up.
I run every day.
Six miles, sometimes more.
Singing helps, go figure.
And I meditate.
- To stay calm.
- Are you? Calm? Considering I'm chained to a gurney in a hospital gown I'd say I'm beyond calm.
I'm fucking Zen.
I just- I can't I can't do the meds anymore.
- Why not? - Because they dull my head.
I miss things when I'm on them.
Miss not as in "yearn for" - but miss as in fail to see.
- Fail to see what? Well, for example, the explosion at Langley that killed 219 people and I see it, the doubt on your face.
But I'm CIA.
You can verify it.
Unless of course, they expunged my records, which come to think of it, is a real possibility.
Look.
My sister is a doctor.
You can call her.
She'll tell you everything I have said is true.
They said you were looking for me.
- I didn't wanna bother you.
- No bother.
What do you got? I managed to source the accounts on the laptop.
There weren't that many.
- And the documents in the briefcase too.
- And? - Nothing originates in Iran.
- Let me know - when you find something that does.
- Sir? I'm not sure what you expect me to do.
I've looked at all the accounts like you asked.
There's nothing there.
- Do you know what you're here for? - To examine the bank records.
You're following the money.
From Hong Kong London Bank to this guy.
Here.
Majid Javadi.
The Iranian who funded the attack on this agency that occurred on 12/12.
I know.
Good.
So do that.
Know what else? While we're talking about an event that left 200 Americans dead and what you're doing about it- which is apparently nothing.
Forgive me.
You wearing that thing on your head is one big "fuck you" to the people who would have been your co-workers except they perished in a blast out there.
So if you need to wear it, if you really need to which is your right, you better be the best analyst we've ever seen and that means don't tell me there's nothing.
Give me a plan.
Give me a goddamn plan or don't say anything.
Is that clear? Do you understand the mission now, what we're trying to do here? - Yes.
- Good.
L- What? - I have a plan.
- Well, tell it to me.
We bring in people from this bank ask them about wire transfers from these three branches in the Middle East.
The bankers we want to talk to, they're in New York.
Okay.
I'll get them down here.
We'll talk to them tomorrow, the two of us.
- Dana? - What? It's getting cold out.
Do you want a sweater? - I'm fine.
- Mom.
- Something to eat? - I said- - Mom, just leave her alone.
- I just asked if she wanted some food.
Well, don't.
You're driving her crazy.
If somebody doesn't eat all day, it means something.
Maybe she's not hungry.
Sweetie.
Mom, really, don't.
Shit, Carrie.
Have a seat.
I didn't know about this.
I came as soon as I heard.
Did you come to get me out? - I can't.
- Just leave.
You can't go around spilling Agency secrets.
You know that.
- Saul's panicked.
- About me.
- About the CIA, if it even has a future.
- So he blames the explosion on me.
- That's his plan to save the Agency.
- It's fucked up, I know.
- Good.
- It's not gonna get you out.
No, my family will be at the hearing tomorrow.
They will get me out.
- Carrie, you have to- - What do I have to do? Look where they put me.
I don't have to do anything.
You have to be careful.
There are things that happened before the explosions you're not even aware of.
People targeted.
I'm worried you're gonna get yourself hurt.
- He sent you here, didn't he? - Who? - Saul.
He sent you to threaten me.
- No, no, he did not send me.
- Just leave.
- Carrie, would you just listen- Leave me alone! - What's going on? Are you okay? - Everything is fine! He was just leaving.
Dana? Dana.
Dana, where are you? - Mom, what happened? - Your sister's gone.
Hey.
Go through the door.
Oh, f- Wait.
- You okay? - I don't know.
Wait.
Watch out.
Are you okay? It's okay.
I just really needed to see you.
- Maggie? - Coming.
- What is it? - Pay stubs.
Carrie wants her pay stubs for the hearing.
- Why? - She says it's evidence.
They reinstated her after the damn explosion.
With a huge promotion.
Is that what you do if it's her fault? It's not the CIA on trial though.
I hope she gets that.
Here.
I really can't believe you're here.
- Can I come in? Hello, Frank.
- What are you doing here? Yeah, why are you here? Look.
I understand you're angry.
Skip the phony sympathy.
What do you want? I know both of you hate me right now, but I'm on her side.
- Oh, bullshit.
- I am.
Doesn't change the fact that the way she's carrying on she's her own worst enemy.
Reign her in.
She can't be running to a reporter every time she gets upset.
Is that what she did? - What, she didn't even mention it to you? - No.
What do you expect her to do, not even fight back? She's not fighting back.
She's making herself a target.
The Agency runs on secrecy.
There are people who want her indicted on criminal charges.
- So you're threatening us.
- I'm telling you the truth.
The best thing you can do for Carrie is convince her to stay inside.
The psych ward.
Out of sight, someplace she can level out.
You know she's off her meds, right? Unless you think that's a good idea, you really have to help me.
Good.
- What? - You're smiling.
So are you.
I wonder why that is.
They're gonna find out soon that I'm missing.
- And your mother's just gonna- - Don't.
Please? I just want it to be us.
And appliances.
- I just want it to be us and appliances.
- Yeah.
Because we're not defective.
You know? We're not.
It's everything out there.
Then, I'd rather stay here with all the other crazies.
You're not crazy.
So what if I am? You're so beautiful.
Hey.
That's fine.
He says he's here as a character witness, if you need him.
I already told him I don't.
If you make a fuss and have him removed I don't think it'll help you with the magistrate.
It's not bad to have someone else on your side.
Okay fine, just leave him then.
So, what are my chances? We're asking that you be released to your family so as far as I'm concerned, they're excellent.
- How do you feel? - I just want this to be over.
Oh, good, they're here.
Maggie, Dad, hi.
This is Dr.
Harlan.
- Hey.
- Hey.
- Did you find everything? - Yeah.
I was wondering where you were.
- What's this? - We wanna talk about your medication.
- Obviously you already have.
- Carrie, listen.
No, I've got a hearing in about three minutes the whole point being I don't need anyone telling me what to do.
- You said you would help.
- We are.
Not when you pull this shit! We're concerned, okay? About you getting yourself in trouble.
- Don't be.
- I mean from what you've been saying.
I've been saying nothing.
I've spent the last 24 hours checked in here.
No, before that.
- Oh, you mean the reporter.
- Yes.
You wanna tell me how you even know about that? God.
Fucking Saul.
- He's worried about you.
- Really.
You're divulging classified stuff.
He told you that he was worried about me, and you believed it when he's the one who put me in here.
God.
He's- He's- He's trying to crush me, when I am trying so hard to do what's right.
Fuck.
No, he pretended to be my friend, and he's not.
You know what? Really it's no different than you.
Hey.
All rise.
The 6th Circuit of the Commonwealth of Virginia the honorable Special Justice William Chesney.
Matter of Carrie Mathison.
Is that you? Your Honor I'm sorry.
Get off of me.
No.
This is a fucking sham.
Come on.
With all respect, you've had a long history of questionable transactions with Iran.
Item four, from the Office of the Controller of the Currency.
Three years ago, in October, they issued a cease-and-desist ordering your client to stop dealings with the Al Askari Bank in Tehran.
My client complied with that order.
You continued dealings with their trading company.
The order applied only to the bank.
- That's your position? - That's the language in the paper.
So you proceeded to accept wire transfers from an Iranian trading company to the tune of $900 million over that time period.
Systematically altered the transaction headers to conceal the true source of the funds.
We're not sure where you're getting your information from.
My client made every effort to comply with federal regulations.
We have an e-mail here saying the opposite.
An instruction to Al Hazlawin Trading: "Delete all Iranian customer names to avoid any sign of U.
S.
Legal breach.
" These legal breaches those are violations of the laws you just told me you were complying with.
I wouldn't know what it refers to.
How could you not know? You sent the e-mail.
Subject line is "Do not reference Iran.
" We have the phony wire transfers, thousands of them.
We want the real ones, with the real names.
- Where did you get this? - That's your question? Your client is funding attacks by terrorists on this country and all you wanna know is how did we find out? Saul, who did you say this is again? You know, your bank it's been trafficking in human misery since the opium wars.
That's not an aberration.
It's not a mistake.
That's your business plan.
You move money for embargoed governments or phony charities.
Where it goes, you don't wanna know, as long as you get your fee.
But we're telling you where it went this time.
Into an SUV full of C4 that blew up right outside this building three months ago.
You passed the blast site on your way in.
We know the funds moved through your bank.
We need to know where they originated.
You do? Yes.
All respect, ma'am in this country, that's not the way we ask for help.
Did you think for even a second how worried I would be? - There was no need to worry.
- How do you figure that? - He's not good for you.
- And this is based on what? - Not knowing him at all? - He's got problems, obviously.
He's unstable.
Is that your professional diagnosis, Mom? He's- Dana, he's not what you need right now.
Maybe he's exactly what I do need.
Dana, every doctor at the center, every pamphlet every book I've read on getting well, they all say the same thing.
You don't wanna start a relationship.
With someone who actually understands you? Is that what they say? Do you realize how crazy that is? You think they know something, the people in here.
They don't.
They just yak and yak and yak until the people who are paying for it feel better, like everyone is getting well.
I really don't understand.
Yeah, that's right.
- Hey.
Glad you're all right.
- I'm not all right.
- Mom, it's okay.
- Is it? When someone runs away to the nuthouse what does she want me to do? Do you want my attention? Is that it? Because you've got it, completely, believe me.
- What are you doing? - I wasn't looking for attention.
- What are you doing? - Showing you something.
No.
No.
It wasn't a cry for help, what I did.
I didn't want anyone's attention.
I wanted to kill myself.
I wanted it all to be over, and I wanted to die because I could not stand it anymore! But now I can.
Now I want to be alive.
And the reason for that is Leo.
I was happy last night for the first time since I don't even know when.
And I am not gonna do this anymore.
I am not gonna let everybody tell me what I should be fucking thinking all the time like I can't decide for myself, like something is wrong with me.
Because Leo is not crazy, and I am not crazy.
And in case you're wondering, neither are you.
Dad was crazy.
He was a lot of things.
He was a psycho who did nothing but lie from the minute he set foot in this house.
And he ruined our lives.
It's the truth.
But I am okay now.
I really am.
I can tell, because you know what? Right now, at this moment, I want to be alive.
- Any word from the bankers? - Nothing.
I did get calls from about 30 congressmen though.
Telling you to back off.
Reminding me I'm supposed to be catching terrorists not bringing down the international banking system.
- Sit.
- No, I'll stand.
I went to Carrie's hearing today and I saw her being hauled off kicking and screaming.
- I'd heard she lost it.
- She didn't lose it.
We did that to her.
We did it.
I would never bail on you in the middle of something but I want you to know, what's going on here is not okay with me.
Peter it's been a rough week.
I'm aware.
But we're on to something and if it leads to where I think it will all have been worth it.
I don't know, Saul.
- Just have a little faith.
- The thing is, I don't.
And when this is over, I'm out.
We'll see when we get there.
I'm telling you now.
It was a mistake, Peter what happened to that child.
Yeah.
It was my mistake, and I'll deal with it.
But I don't know what the hell we're doing.
I really don't.
- Good night, gentlemen.
- Good night.
Good night.
I saw you at Langley today.
I'm sorry.
I don't remember.
It's understandable.
You were pretty busy lying your ass off.
- What? - You lost a colleague this week.
- That's right.
- He was gunned down, his son too.
It was a horrible mistake.
I hope it's not repeated.
Tell me who you are.
- Who are you? - It's aggravating, isn't it when someone won't answer your questions? - Talk to my lawyer.
- I'm talking to you.
And I'm telling you, you have a choice.
You can give us the information we're asking for or you can keep up your stupid charade.
If you pick the latter, I want you to know I try very hard to be patient with venal shitheads like you.
But I can only do it so long.
You have a good flight home.
They're all here? The records? - Seem to be.
- So, what'd they give us? Everything.
HLBC basically ignored the cease-and-desist order just like we said.
They stopped dealing with Al Askari Bank but they continued with the trading company.
In fact, the number of transactions increased especially toward the date of the explosion.
- Know who all was involved? - We're getting there.
On the receiving end, we've already identified half a dozen known associates of Abu Nazir.
What about the source? We're still putting names to the transactions but it's all pointing to Iran.
Not just the country.
Inside the government.
So why did they suddenly decide to cooperate? I'm not sure we want to know.
What is this? Something I noticed when I was reconciling the accounts horizontally.
All the Iranian funds had 20 percent stripped off by our banker friends the standard fee for prohibited transactions.
But a quarter of that disappeared.
- To where? - I don't know yet.
Just seems to have vanished.
All I know is it was not retained by their bank.
Find it.
Find out where it went.
- I'm trying.
- Make it your number-one priority.
That right there, that's our key.
Almost 45 million.
- Fara? - Yes, sir? Keep it between us for the time being.
I don't know what you think you're proving.
All anyone's asking is that you take your meds.
You're not leaving us any choice.
Is that what you want? Planning a great vacation as well.
Well, let me ask you.
In this particular hotel what would you recommend as far as reservations? How much in advance? Right over there.
Carrie.
I am so sorry.
Fuck you, Saul.
