Shortly after calling Brody to tell him that as part of his immunity deal he will have to withdraw his Vice Presidential candidature and step down from Congress Carrie is involved in a car crash. Not too long after that Brody receives another call; this time from Abu Nazir
he has Carrie and he will kill her if Brody doesn't go to the Vice President's house and get the remote code that will access his heart pacemaker! Brody manages to find the code but refuses to give it to Nazir until he frees Carrie. Meanwhile Saul learns a bit more about Quinn and confronts David Estes.
This episode started well with Carrie's crash; it came out of the blue giving a nice surprise. The tension then rose nicely when it was revealed that is wasn't really an accident and she had been captured by terrorist Abu Nazir. When Brody was given his mission by Nazir there was a tense will he/won't he moment where the viewer didn't know whether or not he would really give the code in exchange for Carrie's life. As always the acting was solid; I particularly liked the scene between Claire Danes and Navid Negahban, as Carrie and Nazir, where they talked about their commitments to their causes. The tension peaked at the end with more than one major character being in potential danger I can't wait to see what happens next!
