Homeland (2011–…): Season 5, Episode 2 - The Tradition of Hospitality - full transcript

Previously on Homeland.

I'd like you to meet my head
of security, Carrie Mathison.

- We are going to Lebanon.
- Us?

You, me,
some additional security.

Additional security is what we
take to conferences in Geneva.

This is a war zone.

What do you want?

Otto During is planning
a visit later this week.

He can't go there safely
without your invitation.

Only the council
can invite him.

CARRIE:
This is really getting old-



the CIA saying I'm a traitor, you
saying I'm still working for the CIA.

I don't want to be
in that world.

I want to be here
with you and Frannie.

ALLISON: What? MILLS:
He's attacking us.

- Who is?
- What the fuck?

What?
He's in.

Shut it down.
Shut it down!

Holy shit, it's the CIA.

1,361 files? Want to tell me
how our classified network

got within a thousand miles
of the goddamn Internet?

I got an e-mail today
from a hacker.

It describes a completely
illegal arrangement

between German
and American intelligence.

Germany's doing an end run
around its privacy laws



by having the US
do the spying for them.

SAUL: I want to be sure you understand.
You'll get no support.

You'll be out
of the Agency.

All you get is that key,
your next target in the box

and operating money waiting there
when you bring back proof of death.

(buzzing)

Hello AL-AMIN: The council
invites Otto During

to visit General Alladia Camp
as our honored guest.

(line clicks)

(woman speaking German)

CARRIE: Christ, I really thought
I left all this behind.

MAN: The Islamic State,
ISIS, proclaimed itself

to be a worldwide caliphate
with authority over-

Redraw the map
in the Middle East.

WOMAN: The soldiers are hackers, the battlefield
is online, and ifs not a matter of-

Edward Snowden is a coward.

...extremely disappointed that the
Russian government would take this step.

LAURA: It's against the law.
It's against the flicking law.

CARRIE: All that suffering
and nothing changes.

MAN:
Is our strategy working?

(phone recording: German)

{wrong number tones)
{phone recording: German)

(man speaking Russian)

SAUL:
I actually convinced myself

we were gonna change the world.

QUINN:
Carrie will never be free.

CARRIE: Spend my life on the
run, give up my daughter?

JONAS: I don't know how
you live with yourself.

AL-AMIN:
I will fight you forever.

CARRIE (whispering):
Who's after me?

JONAS: So many people, so
much blood on your hands.

Looks like
it's already started.

(horn honks)

Here we are,
ladies and gents.

The General Alladia Camp.

Passports. During Foundation.
Here to see Colonel Haugen.

They're all clear.
Send 'em through.

Okay.

Park over there.

(chattering)

What about the other
meeting- Hezbollah?

They contact me.
How wasn't specified.

I assume they know
I'm here.

Oh, yeah.

Carrie? He's ready.

Colonel Haugen?

Philipp Becker. I handle
foreign aid for Otto During.

This is Carrie Mathison,
his head of security,

and Mike Brown,
whom I think you've met.

Last year with Angelina. And, Ms.
Mathison, we spoke on the phone.

Good to meet you
in person, Colonel.

All right. Come in.

(exhales)

You saw on the road.
Things are changing fast.

How many people are you getting a day?
More all the time.

Yesterday
it was a thousand,

so this is not
the best time for a visit.

The flow of refugees is only
going to increase, sir.

You'll need resources, and Mr.
During will ensure you get them.

And I'm grateful. But why does he need
all the journalists, the TV crew?

To get the message out. The Syrian
war is an old story, I'm afraid.

What can you tell me
about the security situation?

You mean, is it safe?

Well,

this is where we are, and
this is where you are safe.

Mr. During will need to go farther
than that, and so will the press.

He needs to be seen in the camp,
not just in a UN compound.

Well, this is
where he's safe.

(door opens)

I'm in a meeting.

Will you excuse me?

You want to get
that message out there too?

- What message? - That your
foundation does deals with Hezbollah?

A conversation
is not a deal, Colonel.

And Mr. During needs to be able
to move freely around the camp.

As you wish.

Listen, if things get
gnarly- They won’t.

(speaks foreign language)

You want to search us?
Yes.

(foreign language)

Not you.

It's okay.

(man on TV speaking Arabic)

Salaam alaikum.

Alaikum salaam.

(speaking Arabic)

I speak English
better than your Arabic.

The During Foundation
is grateful.

You are CIA.

I was in the CIA.

I'm a private citizen now. I was
given safe passage by the council.

Mr. During was invited here by
Commander al-Amin in Berlin.

Al-Amin thinks
I can't run my own camp?

No one's saying that.

We negotiated a substantial
payment for your help

in providing security
for our visit.

What payment?
I've seen nothing.

It was transferred
to al-Amin's account.

-(speaks Arabic)
- No. Wait.

Please, just listen to me.

I assure you,
it'll be worth your time.

- I just need my backpack.
- What is in the backpack?

IFS $40,000.

For you, Waleed,
to use as you see fit.

I know that an agreement made by one Hezbollah
commander will be honored by another.

So we have a deal?

YES.

But, uh-

- What?
- The camp is overrun.

Every day it gets worse.

All kind of scum
from across the border-

al-Nusra, al-Qaeda, Daesh.

What are you saying?

Stay no more than one hour.

Even I can't guarantee Mr.
During's safety longer than that.

Okay. One hour.

And dominating
our program today,

as it has dominated
headlines across Europe,

is news of this
shocking document

which suggests German intelligence
is working with the CIA

to bypass
Germany's privacy laws.

Our guest is the woman
who published the document,

the dissident American
journalist Laura Sutton.

Welcome.
Thanks.

Can I correct one thing
right away?

The document doesn't suggest a
relationship. It absolutely proves it.

It details every aspect of the
arrangement, even its budget

lt's quite shocking.

INTERVIEWER:
So you're not surprised

that the Chancellery is scrambling
to distance itself from the affair?

LAURA:
I'm not.

But I think your security services
have a lot to answer for too.

Plus, I only saw
the one document.

It could just be
the tip of the iceberg.

Talk about a clusterfuck.

And there's something else.

The BND's had a team on Laura Sutton
ever since she came to Berlin.

INTERVIEWER:
A test?

LAURA: My source wanted
to see what I would do,

how I would release
the information.

In fact, if I would release
it at all, but I hope-

When was this taken?

Same day as the penetration.

How can you be sure it's
a genuine CIA document?

Let's just say
I know it is.

You think Carrie's involved?

I really can't see it.

But they do both work
for During.

INTERVIEWER: Do you expect any
retaliation from the BND?

I mean, personally?

Oh, yeah, I'm sure they're
searching my apartment right now.

That doesn't upset you?
Mmm. Gotten used to it.

As long as they don't
let the cat out.

(speaking German)

LAURA:
My personal space-

LAURA: ...annoying
people who get angry

whenever they see hard-won
rights being ignored or abused.

I moved here
because of the protections

Germany guarantees
its citizens and its guests.

You have these laws because you know
how bad it can get. You've lived it.

You saw the surveillance state tear
society apart, and you said, “No more.”

But it seems your own intelligence
agency wasn't listening.

Now, I'm not a German citizen-

LAURA: ...aimed at skirting
national privacy regulations.

Germany is by no means the first
country to spy on its citizens,

but the BND
was smart about it.

They outsourced
the dirty work to the CIA.

Every paper and TV channel,

and all over the Web.

- I told you she would do it.
- Shh.

Who was the source
of the leak?

Was it from inside
German intelligence?

I have no idea.

All I know is, he or she
took a big risk to expose this.

I'm honored
they reached out to me,

and I will respect their trust,
whatever happens to me.

You hear that?

INTERVIEWER: I'm sure you
took a big risk yourself-

She's asking
for the rest of it.

She also said she's got cops
in her apartment.

You send that, it'll be
intercepted, traced back to us.

LAURA:
Thank you for having me.

She's at the TV station.
I'll take it to her.

Dude, wait.
We should talk about this.

Talk about what?

Look at her.
She's on TV.

So?

So, she's getting rich
out of this.

Why not us?

Make money out of sex,
Korzy, not information.

Information’s for free.

(Sighs)

(woman speaking German)

(whispering)

(sniffles, sighs)

Come.

(German)

(both speaking German)

LAURA: Thought it
went really well, so-

Yeah. Let's definitely keep in touch.
Absolutely.

You have all my details.
Yeah.

Let me know if you need anything.
Thank you.

Bye.

Laura Sutton, Hans Podolski,
Bundesnachrichtendienst.

- You've got to be kidding.
- You’re under arrest. Please come with us.

Get off of me.
What's the charge?

Tell me.
What's the charge?

PODOLSKI:
Go.

(tires squealing)

CARRIE: We good, Lothar?
We're good.

Mr. During
arrived safely.

The top two floors
are secured.

He'd like to see you
when you're ready. Okay.

Uh, tell Otto I'll be right up
after I grab a shower. Sure thing.

- Hank. Hey.
- Carrie.

Hey.

What a surprise.
But not really.

What can I say?
It's a small town.

Well, so much
for the discreet entry.

Got to admit,
I didn't believe it.

Believe what?
When I heard it was you.

Coming here. Otto DUring?

I work for him now. Yeah, that's
what was hard to believe.

(chuckling)
What do you mean?

Come on, Carrie.
It's a play, right?

Classic Trojan horse.

(chuckles) Something
you and Saul cooked up

to get you
inside the Foundation.

It's not like that, Hank.

Seriously.

Hey, whatever you say.

Listen, today
at General Alladia,

you met
with Hezbollah, right?

Probably
with Waleed himself.

With the influx of refugees, how compromised
is his control of the camp, do you think?

I told you, Hank, I'm out. Yeah,
I'm just asking your opinion.

And I can't be perceived to be
helping the Agency in any way.

(scoffs)
You're joking.

Actually, I'm not.

♪♪ (Jazz)

(no audible dialogue)

(Sate opens)

(footsteps)

Carrie.

Welcome to Beirut.

- Prost.
-(glasses clink)

lt's good. lt's local, but really
quite good. I'm surprised.

Shame I can't tempt you.

I'm nine months sober
tomorrow.

Congratulations.
Thanks.

I know, I know.
My party.

I would have liked to
have been consulted, that's all.

And to have seen
the guest list.

I know these people.

I have ties here, remember? Why else
would the government invite me?

And, yes,
I'll be honest.

Corning all this way, I thought
I'd do some business too.

Philipp says from his point
of view, we're all set.

Do you agree?

Hezbollah's cooperating.

But?

Well, the situation
on the ground

is unpredictable,
to say the least.

Meaning what?

Meaning we've been told to limit the
time of the visit to one hour, no more.

One hour will be tight.

These things drag on-

introductions,
handshakes, speeches-

Okay. One hour.

(gunfire)

lt's probably a wedding.

Of course. A wedding.

(chuckles)

But you, you-

You're comfortable here.

(scoffs)
Hardly.

You know the place though.

I guess.

It was my first
overseas posting. 2004.

What was it like?

The Syrians were
throwing their weight around.

There was a lot of assassinations,
truck bombs, hostage-takings.

It was... kind of scary.

Let me guess.
You were not scared.

Honestly, no.

It was... a big adventure.

But...

I was different then.

HOW?

I was younger.

And I was... alone.

There wasn't anyone
waiting for me back at home.

(gunfire)

(beeps)

Ms. Sutton,
sorry for the delay.

I'm an American citizen.

You have no right to hold me.
I want my lawyer.

Did you hear me?
I want my lawyer.

I heard you.
You have a loud voice.

The Foreign Residence Act,
Section 54, paragraph 5A,

relating to foreign nationals who endanger the
security of the Federal Republic of Germany.

I didn't endanger anything.
This is bullshit.

It's the law.

We can hold you for 18 months, then
deport you back to the United States,

where I'm sure the FBI
wants to question you also.

I want my lawyer.

Your source hacked into a government
database. That's a criminal act.

Give me his name
and you can go.

I don't know his name,
or her name.

Even if I did, I wouldn't tell you.

Journalists protect their sources.

Are you in possession of
the rest of the documents?

You must know.
You searched my apartment.

Laura, do you understand
the situation we're in here?

Yeah. You're in the shit because
you broke your own laws.

700 German citizens have gone to Syria
to fight for the Islamic State.

It's not what they're doing
over there that scares us.

It's what happens
when they come back.

We were tracking them. We'd made
some arrests, prevented some plots.

But now those we arrested
must be released.

Those we were tracking,
we've lost. They vanished.

So how will you feel when bombs start
going off in Berlin, Paris, Brussels?

Do you want that?
Of course not.

But you made it
more likely.

You have legal ways
to track these people.

Legal ways that demand
resources we do not have.

Yet you sent five men
to arrest me today.

Five.

Wouldn't they have been better employed
tracking these wannabe terrorists

who are supposed to
be blowing up Europe?

Do you want to make
a joke of this?

LAURA: You got caught
breaking the law.

You try to make it about something
else, like the terrorist threat,

which is what
you always do.

You're not allowed to spy
on your own citizens.

It's against the law.
lt's against the fucking law.

That woman.

She'd let the country burn as long
as she got her Pulitzer Prize.

Hmm.

What's up?
Apart from the obvious.

Had a meeting with BND top
brass, including Herr Mohr.

He flew in from Cologne?

Chancellerys on the warpath.
No shit.

There's already talk
of a parliamentary inquiry.

They want a scalp.

Not Astrid, I hope. She's
one of the good guys.

No.
(sighs)

Who then?

Someone from our side.

Someone senior.

Who, Saul?

You've gotta
be kidding me.

I'm afraid not.

Giving you 24 hours
to leave the country.

- I know it's not fair.
- Well, what did you say?

Wasn't really
a conversation.

Have you spoken
to the director?

- He's not inclined to put up a fight.
- Not inclined?

Flat-out refused.

I don't believe this. I do
not fucking believe this.

Hey, you.

Hey, yourself.

Is Frannie still awake?

Just fell asleep.
Shall I wake her?

No. No, no, that's okay.

I'll be-

I'll be home tomorrow.

Listen, I can't tell you
how much it means to me

that you're there with her,
looking after her.

Don't be silly.

No, seriously.
I've never had that before.

Well, don't give it a second thought.
We're having fun.

How are you?

Good. Yeah. Um-

We're all set
for the big day tomorrow.

And you're being careful?

Very.

I'm hiding behind a team of
hunky ex-Special Forces guys.

I like the sound of that.

Of you hiding.
Not-Not the Special Forces guys.

(laughs)

I miss you.

Miss you too.

(footsteps approaching)

Demet.
Oh. Hello.

(speaking German)
Uh-uh.

Ja.
Gut.

DEMET:
Okay.

Sehr gut.

Fatima!

(Fatima, German)

(speaking German)

(sighs)
Laura.

I'm so sorry for this.

Believe me,
there'll be repercussions.

Your client enabled
a criminal act.

She endangered national security.
We acted within the law.

My client acted
as a responsible journalist.

The only criminal act here
was the one she exposed,

which is why the very first judge
I called ordered her release.

You and your bosses
will hear about this.

So will your client, if she
publishes any more documents.

We'll put her on a plane
back to the States,

and all the expensive lawyers
in the world won't stop us.

Come on, let's get out
of this shit-hole.

DURING:
This camp, Alladia,

is home to 20,000 refugees.

By the end of next week,

it will have 30,000,
40,000, maybe more.

There isn't the food
to feed these people.

There are no roofs
to shelter them.

There are no doctors and
nurses to take care for them.

I promise we will provide
all these things,

and we will make this camp
a safe place

for everyone escaping
the terror of war.

But let's try to do
more than this.

Let's make Alladia not
an end, but a beginning-

a place where children
can go to school,

where young men and women can learn
a profession, a craft or an art.

But there's no money
for this.

There's never money
for this.

Until today.

Here's a check from the During
Foundation for $10 million.

And-

And this-
This is just the start.

Because I call
on my fellow businessmen,

on governments,
on aid organizations,

to fulfill this promise,

so that on the day
when peace comes,

you, the people of Alladia,

can go home
and rebuild your country

with pride
and knowledge and skill.

Thank you. Take care.

(applause)

DURING:
Thanks a lot.

Call Hamel. Get him to
bring the vehicles up.

Roger Dodger.
Guys, vehicles on standby.

DURING:
Thank you very much.

- Thanks.
- You're welcome.

How was I? I can never tell. One hour's up.
lt's time to go.

No, I need 10 more minutes. To press
the flesh. Isn't that the expression?

- Otto, it's time.
- For the cameras. Ten more minutes.

Then I'm all yours.
Okay?

I promise.

It's a pleasure.
Thank you.

- SAUL: What about the Ukraine?
- Two of our assets in Donetsk

are potentially compromised
by the documents.

One requested relocation
to Western Europe.

The other wants asylum
in the States.

I'll get it approved. ls the
exfiltration under way?

They'll be at Ramstein
by this evening.

Astrid called.
Laura Sutton's been released.

Well, that was quick.
We're all over her though.

Three separate watcher teams
and six cars on drive-by.

Listen, Saul. Not here,
not here, not here.

Come on.

I heard what you said to Arthur about
relocating the Donetsk assets.

No choice.
They're burned.

You know
I recruited them both.

And their loss makes us completely
blind in Eastern Ukraine,

where World War Ill
could break out any day.

Well, you exaggerate,
but, yes, I know.

Then you also know I'm the best person
to find agents to replace them.

I have the contacts,
the experience.

No one is disputing that.
Then dispute the decision.

Explain that we suffered
a major penetration here,

one that endangers the security
of Europe and the United States,

and I'm the best goddamn
person to fix it.

I told you,
my hands are tied.

If I were Carrie Mathison, what
would you be doing right now?

Excuse me?
You heard me.

Exactly what I am doing.

Bullshit.

The gloves would be off. You'd
be protecting her at all costs.

No matter what she did. No matter
how royally she screwed up.

Not what I'd be do- Well, guess what.
She's gone, Saul.

So start showing
some fucking allegiance

to the people who stuck
around to support you.

(chattering) Okay, one
at a time, please.

Thank you.
Thanks a lot.

Thank you.
Thank you very much.

Of course. Of course we will come
back Thank you very much. Thank you.

Let's take this one, hmm?

Thank you.
Carrie.

Hamel,
bring the vehicles up.

Otto, we need to leave. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah, all right.

Uh-uh, I need to go.
I really need to go.

Thank you very much.

Thank you very much.
Thanks a lot.

Please. Look at this boy.
He's eight years old.

Not one day in school,
not ever.

We need schools as much
as we need food, please.

DURING:
I know. I know.

Uh, of course.
No, that-that's for sure.

- Carrie. Guy in the dark jacket.
- Don't lose him.

Can you explain that that's
exactly what I've promised?

(man speaks Arabic)

-(Arabic)
- WOMAN: Y-Yeah.

Our first priority is food and shelter.
We do all we can.

- You, in the jacket!
- Get him to cover.

Get him to cover.
Go! Go!

(Arabic)

-(man shouts)
- Show me your hands!

Show me your fucking hands!

(shouts)
(grunting)

Let the woman go.
Let her go.

Let her go!

Take him.

(crowd clamoring)

Into the vehicles.
Go! Go!

Go! Go, go, go!

Go, go, go.
Move, move.

Go. Go!

- Stay down.
-(grunts)

CARRIE:
You see that?

What the fuck?
Where is everybody?

Stop.

I said stop!

Hamel, no!

(grunts)

(tires screeching)

Let's get you
out of here.

I should make some calls
first, talk to the government.

Otto, We need you on that plane right now.
You're still in danger.

Come on. Come on.
Yeah.

Yeah, okay. Let's
go home then, huh?

(exhales)

- Not me.
- What'?

I'm not going. I-l need to get a
sense of what happened here today.

We know what happened. We stayed too long.
I don't think so.

What do you mean?
It was carefully planned.

They were gonna hit us on our way
out of the camp, no matter what.

Wait a minute. You’re not
thinking of going back there.

I have to find out who's behind this,
whether they're gonna follow us to Berlin.

Come on, Carrie. This
is- Don't worry.

All the attention will leave with you.
I can move around more easily.

Plus, I'll have plenty of backup.
This is not a good idea.

It's not a debate.
I'm staying.

You saved my life.

I won't forget.

(inhaling, exhaling)

(subs)

Oh, please, please, God,
help me.

(whispering)
Help me.

(inhales sharply, exhales)

(Fatima speaks German)

Bitte.

(shutter clicking)

ALLISON (on phone): I assume you’ve
been briefed on my situation here.

Yeah, of course.

Well, I'm calling you personally
to say it's a serious mistake.

Don't overdramatize,
Allison.

Badge of honor,
taking one for the team.

In the end,
it'll help your career.

It will also set our intelligence operations
in Russia and Eastern Europe back

in ways we cannot afford
right now.

I've been COS of Moscow,
Kiev and Berlin.

You know how valuable I am.

No one's doubting your value.

But the Germans want a head on
a spike- an important head.

So give them Saul's.

I'm sorry?

The division chief. That's important
enough for them, isn't it?

You're suggesting
I recall Saul to Langley?

No, just stop him
coming to Berlin.

He can do his job from anywhere.
Paris, London, Vienna.

You know Saul would understand.
He always puts the Agency first.

And be honest.

Who would you rather have
on the ground here, him or me?

(bell dings)

- Jesus!
- No! I won't hurt you.

-(hammer cocks) - What the
hell are you doing in here?

What is that?
Your money.

AI-Amin's orders.

We gave our word to protect you.
We failed.

- What happened?
- Waleed betrayed us.

- Waleed?
- For money.

Whose money?
Who paid him?

Behruz, who paid him?

LOOK.

(speaking Arabic)

Who paid you?

Who paid you to do it? (groans)

Enough. Just tell me what happened.
He'll say.

Listen.

Why did they want
to kill During?

Hmm?

Why did they
want him dead?

He was helping us.

Why kill him?

(speaks Arabic)
Say it in English!

It wasn't him.

It was the CIA woman.

She was the target.

Six hours
he was questioned.

Whoever paid him, he was more
afraid of them than dying.

Beirut is not safe for you.

Someone wants you dead.
