Quotes 

  • Nicholas Brody : What are you playing?

    Mike Faber : Hearts.

    Nicholas Brody : Hearts? Watch out for this guy, kids. Back in the day, he used to double his paycheck playing this game.

    Dana Brody : Hearts, which the Marines call "Hunt the Cunt".

    Jessica Brody : Dana!

    Virgil Piotrowski : [watching the surveillance feed]  Maybe the daughter is the terrorist.

    Dana Brody : Don't blame me, mom, blame the Marines.

    Carrie Mathison : [snickering]  Fuck you, Virgil.

  • [last lines] 

    Carrie Mathison : Saul, turn on your TV. It's happening, exactly what you said. He's out there playing the hero card.

  • Carrie Mathison : [surprised when Saul enters her house unannounced]  I've got a doorbell, you know.

    Saul Berenson : [indicating her surveillance equipment]  You really think you still have a right to privacy with all this?

  • Carrie Mathison : What's that?

    Saul Berenson : This gives you four weeks.

    Carrie Mathison : You got a warrant? A FISA warrant? We're legal now?

    Saul Berenson : Legal-ish, but far from official, and certainly not Estes-proof.

    [she moves to take the envelope] 

    Saul Berenson : Be very careful not to mistake this for a stamp of approval, or sanction from me for you to wage some sort of personal war.

  • Carrie Mathison : Eyes on Brody makes complete sense. It's exactly what you would have done in my shoes, Saul.

    Saul Berenson : No, it is not. You lied to me about it, Carrie. Then right here in this room when I called you on it...

    Carrie Mathison : I know what I did. And I know it was wrong, and insulting.

    Saul Berenson : Insulting. That barely scratches the surface of what that was. Four weeks, Carrie. Not a second longer.

  • Carrie Mathison : This is the first confirmed sighting of Abu Nazir in seven years.

    Saul Berenson : And very much to your credit. Nobody's arguing with that. But it's not enough to authorize a task force.

    Carrie Mathison : Well, I'm not asking for that. All I need is a few more bodies on Sergeant Brody.

    Saul Berenson : [sigh]  Ugh, look, the circle's small. We keep it that way 'till you have more than just a theory linking Brody and Abu Nazir.

    Carrie Mathison : So Abu Nazir's resurfacing just as Brody has miraculously returned home means nothing? It's just a coincidence?

    Saul Berenson : The dots are there, Carrie, but you haven't connected 'em yet.

    Carrie Mathison : Saul, I understand that you're still furious with me, but give me something here, please.

    Saul Berenson : I'm not telling you to stop. I'm telling you to slow down. The FISA warrant, that gives you four weeks. Use it. Carefully, methodically. Look, like it or not, you work for Deputy Director David Estes, who has career stakes in Brody, whom he and his department brought home to great fanfare. Want to challenge that, better be damn sure you get all your ducks in a row first.

  • David Estes : Let me be the first to say, Carrie, outstanding work. All other files on your desk go on the back burner, as of right now. I want your girl on this prince Farid like white on rice. Mike? First thing you get her to do is, uh, upload the data on his BlackBerry.

    Carrie Mathison : She's scared out of her mind.

    David Estes : [an agent hands him a plastic case with a SIM card]  Thank you.

    Carrie Mathison : I need to be able to guarantee her protection. Backup.

    David Estes : Would a four-man fire team do it?

    Carrie Mathison : Great.

    David Estes : For an escort you recruited in Bahrain?

    Carrie Mathison : Don't be a prick, David.

    David Estes : You know damn well if we put a Quick Reaction Team on the girl in this short time frame, we have no idea of knowing who's watching. If Abu Nazir even smells we're onto the prince, he'll vanish. Into thin air, again.

    Carrie Mathison : It's the QRT's job not to be detected. You're saying you can't trust those guys to protect an asset in danger?

    David Estes : It's my job to make the tough calls, Carrie. The answer is no. Your job is to control your asset. She needs backup, you're it. Get it done.

  • Carrie Mathison : [watching the surveillance of Brody]  Wait, there's no camera in the garage?

    Virgil Piotrowski : Uh, you know, on this budget, I had to prioritize.

    Carrie Mathison : And now he's placing a bag containing god knows what in our blind spot? Jesus Christ, Virgil!
