Homeland (2011–…): Season 5, Episode 4 - Why Is This Night Different? - full transcript

Previously on Homeland.

Look at her. She's getting
rich out of this. Why not us?

Information’s for free.

KORZY: I have a business
opportunity for you.

Something for sale.
Documents. Top secret.

American.

I'll vet them and get them
out, just like last time.

How can I reach you?
You can't.

(cartoon boing)

(man cackling)
You little fucker.

We're old friends, Saul, so
you should know something



My government will actively oppose any
plans for regime change in Damascus.

We're out of the business
of overthrowing Arab dictators, Etai.

We have a green light.

How detailed
is their intelligence?

They know Assad's
in the crosshairs.

They know we have
a likely candidate lo replace him.

It was the CIA woman.
She was the target.

Someone wants you dead.

CARRIE: I don't know if I can
put her on that plane tomorrow.

- JONAS: Why not go with her? -If I do
that, she's no safer than she is here.

You'll get no support.
You'll be out of the Agency.

No contact from today.

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

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



We have to go. We have to go right now.
They're already on their way.

- Who is?
- I am saying

that whoever is trying
to kill me is coming here.

Carrie! Goddamn it!
Where are you?

(grunts)

(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 fucking 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:
J 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: 1 don'! 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.

♪♪ (people singing in Hebrew)

We eat maror,
the bitter herb,

to remind us of the
bitterness of slavery

our ancestors
endured in Egypt.

And for us-
my family, my friends,

celebrating
this seder in Germany-

it is important to remember
the slavery we endured

under a tyrant worse than
Pharaoh only 70 years ago

in this land.

On the streets
where we walk every day,

our parents and our
grandparents wore yellow stars.

Let's take a moment
to remember.

And let's remember the enemies
we still have all over the world

who wish to destroy us.

We pray for the strength
to defeat them.

Quinn. Oh, thank God.

Quinn?

Quinn, untie me.

Quinn, what the fuck
is going on?

Your name's on a kill list.

I-I know.
I-I can't figure ii out.

Well, you must
have done something.

Pissed off somebody,
crossed a line somewhere.

- Quinn, Quinn, Quinn, no. Please. Please.
- Don't move, Carrie.

Please! Please. No.
Stop moving, Carrie.

I-I didn't do anything. I have no
idea where this is coming from.

I swear. No matter what
Dar Adal said, I did not-

Not him. Saul.

Saul put your name
on the list.

Saul?

Close your eyes.

I don't believe it.
Believe it.

Now, play fucking dead.

(beeps, clicks)

Hurry up.
We got shit to do.

CARRIE:
What exactly?

Your fallback plan-
time to execute it.

What if
I don't have one?

(chuckles)

Could be true.

Cut the crap, Carrie. lt's
time to disappear and fast.

This picture
buys you time.

As long as you keep your head
down, they won't come after you.

So- Your operation with
Saul- how does it work?

Doesn't matter.

(bag zipping)

Tell me.

Saul provides a name,
I provide proof of death,

return to the drop,
get another name.

And the last time you went to
the drop, you got my name?

Told you that already.

I don't know. I don't wanna know.
Why?

But I didn't do anything.

Listen to me, Carrie. Your
name was in the box, okay?

Probably for something
you're not even aware of.

Now, I know
that's hard to hear.

I have to talk to Saul.

For all you know,
he was given a direct order.

What's your point?

Somebody, somewhere, likely
very senior, wants you dead.

If they think
you're not dead,

they're gonna send somebody
to finish the job.

You got to disappear.

(Sighs)

(chattering)

You assured me that there was no
plot to overthrow Bashar al-Assad.

There isn't.
Saul.

You honor me with your
presence at my seder table,

so I'll play along.
Hmm.

If you had a plan
to replace Assad,

we understand that it would
be with General Youssef.

Youssef would be
a good choice.

If we had a plan like that.

He's Alawi.
He's Assad's cousin by marriage.

He's popular with the military.

Well, some say he was behind the chemical
weapons attack in Khan al-Assal.

Those allegations
have never been confirmed.

Let's play another game.

What's the alternative?

Leave Assad in place?

When Arabs are killing Arabs,

at least they're not
firing rockets at Israel.

That's hardly a long-term strategy
for peace in the Middle East.

You really think any of
those murderers want peace?

You used to be
a good friend to Israel.

I'm still a good friend.

You used to be
a better one.

(slaps arm)

Etai.

I've enjoyed
this evening so much.

Well, I'm glad you
could share it with us.

So, dessert.
Mmm.

We need to leave
in 15 minutes.

Is everything all right?

It will be.

(line ringing, beeps)

Hi. This is Carrie Mathison. Leave
a message and I'll call you back.

(Sighs)

You're back.

Ah, catching up.

And Carrie?
Still trying to figure out

who was responsible
for the attack.

I was helping her, but we
decided I was needed here.

- Otto should fire her ass.
- She saved his life.

She didn't do her job. Which was to make
sure he was safe in the first place.

She advised him not to go.

Do you need something?

My source for the documents
screwed me.

He gave me an empty flash drive.

(sighs) Why? I don't know why.

Maybe he's afraid.
The CIA is still following me.

Okay, what can I do?

You had a client, that hacker,
Sabine something.

She won't help you. And as her
lawyer, I'd advise her not to.

Jonas, she's famous. If she reaches
out to my guy, he'll respond.

She's under house arrest
for three years.

The government really went after her.
Give her a break, Laura.

A break?
Yeah.

The government's after all of us.

Everything all right?

Fine.

I'm asking Jonas to help me
track down my source

so we can get a look at the
rest of those documents.

Of course. Help her.
lt's important.

What's the problem?

No problem.
I'll make the call.

The sooner the better.

(cell phone ringing)

Hello.

Anything?

No. I drove up
to the cottage.

She wasn't there. Everything gone.
No trace.

We should call the police. Of
course we should, but we can't.

She said it would put her
in more danger.

She has to figure it out on
her own to get to the truth.

(sighs)
I mean, who lives like this?

She does.

I know you're worried.

So am I.

QUINN:
Ready?

(beeps)

Frannie.

You’re named after your
grandfather, Frank Mathison.

Did you know that?

We haven't seen each other
for a while.

I had to leave you, and you’re
probably really angry about that.

And I don't blame you.

But, honey,
something happened,

and it wasn't safe
for me to be with you.

But I am doing everything
that I can to get-

- What are you doing?
-(beeps)

If you're doing everything
you can to get back to her,

then you’re still alive.

- So?
- So if this falls into the wrong hands,

you're fucked.

I'm not going away forever.

Just until this situation is resolved.

How is it getting resolved?

I'm gonna figure out
who targeted me-

- They're gonna keep come looking for you.
- And I will fix it.

And if they think
you're still alive,

they will get to you
through Frannie.

But-
Carrie!

If you want Frannie
to be safe,

you have to be dead.

Jesus.

How did you feel
when you had to leave your kid?

Not everyone's fit
to be a parent.

Let's do this.

(beeps)

Frannie.

Maybe now
you're using Frances?

We haven't seen each other
in a long time.

I had to leave you, and you
probably hate me for it.

And I don't blame you.

But something happened,

and it wasn't safe
for me to be with you.

I'm doing ev-

Shit.

I did everything that I could
to get back to you.

But I-I didn't make it.

The kind of work
that I did-

it's dangerous.

But I believed in it,
so I was willing to take that risk.

But-

But then you came along.

And I realized that I wanted
something different.

I wanted a better life.

(voice cracking)
And I had ii with you for a while.

But...

I didn't abandon you.

I know what that feels like,
and I would never do that to you.

You...

are the most important,

the-

the best thing
that I have ever done.

You make up for every mistake
that I've ever made.

And although you
probably don't believe it,

I love you very, very much.

(beeps)

(door buzzes)

- Was?
-l'm looking for Sabine.

There's no Sabine here.

I have a meeting with her. It was arranged
through her lawyer, Jonas Hollander.

Is that so?

I'm not leaving
until I see Sabine.

Sabine is under
house arrest.

But the BND keeps
sniffing around,

trying to find something
to use against her.

To send her to prison.

Put your phone in here.
It blocks the signal.

I already took out
the SIM card.

Put your phone in the bag
or get out.

She's looking for Sabine.

Are you Sabine?
(scoffs)

What's going on?

I'm Sabine.

What was that about?

I have to be careful.
Sorry.

We know your work.
Amazing.

(speaking German)

Sabine's not allowed to
communicate with journalists.

It's a condition
of her house arrest.

SABINE:
She's one of us.

She exposed the CIA
and the BND.

You kicked their asses. There's
more where that came from.

- What do you mean?
- More documents.

No shit.
The problem is,

the guy who hacked the
documents- I can't find him.

Gabe H. Coud.

Who? Gabe H. Coud. What
he calls himself online.

Ifs “douche bag”
backwards.

- You know him?
- Of him. He's famous.

Dude hacked the CIA.

- You can help me find him?
- I can find anyone.

WOMAN: If you start
looking for Gabe H. Coud,

you'll attract the attention
from the wrong people.

This is like something
from the Stasi days.

You guys are afraid
to ask for information?

The BND would love
to throw my ass into prison.

Let them try. I'll make
their lives a living hell.

Sabine will be taking
the risk, not you.

I'm facing arrest too,
and extradition.

I'm a person of interest.
Do you know what that means?

It means you're not scared.

It means I try not to be.

(speaking Arabic)

General Youssef?
Yes?

Mrs. Youssef.

(assuming accent) I'm Denise Keller,
director of the Seeufer Clinic.

The arrangements
were made through Dr. Droz.

He's waiting
at the clinic.

Hassan.
(speaking Arabic)

My wife would like to travel with
our daughter. ALLISON: Of course.

Will you help Mrs. Youssef
into the ambulance?

Certainly.
Come with me, please.

This way, please.

Your family will have complete
privacy while you're here.

There are
no other patients.

The donor?

He arrived safely and meets
all the medical requirements.

You are not Swiss.
Your accent.

You have a good ear.

I'm from Berlin.

Your daughter will be fine.
I promise.

(chattering in Arabic)

This is your surgeon,
Dr. Droz.

Yes, uh, we've spoken
on the phone.

Everything is in order.

Good.

For the kidney donor,
as well.

I'll go prepare.

Do you want to spend a moment with
Amena before they take her in?

Yes, please.

(speaking Arabic)

(speaking Arabic)

My assistant will show you
to the waiting lounge.

If there's anything you need, anything
at all, don't hesitate to ask.

Thank you.

(whirring)

So what do you
make of him?

- What is he?
- Not a talker.

Proud.
Exactly what you'd expect.

Used to giving orders
and having them obeyed.

But his officers seem
to be in charge here.

And he resents that.

Assad must believe
he's a flight risk.

You think we have
enough on him?

The war crimes.

His daughter's life
in the balance.

Precarious state
of his country.

We got a hand of aces.

- You think he'll burn?
- You know how it is, Saul.

Some of these guys
gel all patriotic.

At least the intelligence
is correct. He smokes.

Good. I might have one
with him.

Offer him one of yours.
His are Syrian.

I think he'd appreciate
an upgrade.

(chuckles)
I will.

(sighs)
I should get going.

Yup.

QUINN: You moved to Berlin.
Got a new job, new guy,

and still kept
your fallback plan in place.

So?

So I guess you weren't sure your
new life was gonna work out.

I found a good life here.

I was happy.

Where have you been?

Syria.

Quinn, the last two years,
everywhere I went, I looked for you.

I tried to find you.

I never stopped
thinking about you.

Doesn't matter now.

Well, how do I look?

Like somebody else.

Did you ever see Saul
use the drop?

Carrie, come on.
I need to know.

Yeah, I saw him the first
time we set it up.

Not since?

Undeniable. No contact authorized.
We have to move.

So you don't know for certain it was
Saul who put my name in the box.

Christ.
Do you or don't you?

It's Saul's operation.
That's all I need to know.

It doesn't make sense.
I mean, maybe Saul changed.

Maybe I pissed him off.
But Saul's smart.

Sending you to kill me is not smart.
It's fucking stupid.

The fact that I'm still alive
proves it.

You're still a target
either way you look at it.

Quinn, if Saul didn't put
my name in the box,

then someone's
inside your operation.

Any name you get after this,
it's not legitimate.

Let's test it.

Take me to your drop.
No, I'll handle it.

I'll go with you.
Get in the car.

We're taking you
to the train.

Carrie-
You are telling me

that someone I trust
more than I've ever trusted anyone

is trying to kill me,

and I'm just supposed to accept
that, no questions asked?

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

Quinn, I have to know.

(footsteps)

Right this way, General.

Come in.

There are some forms
you need to sign.

There shouldn't be any forms.

Please sit.

What is happening here?

I'm CIA. Everyone
in this facility is CIA.

Except for the surgical
team, of course.

You've traveled to Geneva in violation
of international sanctions.

You have no rights here,
no immunity.

We can arrest you and have
you transported to The Hague

to stand trial
for war crimes.

How dare you.

Keep looking
at the form.

There is an alternative.

Unfortunately, we don't have
time to discuss it now.

Wait until lunch is served.
Say you want a smoke.

Go for a walk in the garden.
Go alone.

Now, sign the form.

Thank you, General.

You'll probably want to get
back to your wife now.

(Sighs)

(Sighs)

Found him. We're on.

Ask him why he gave me
that bullshit empty drive.

(typing)

He says he gave you
the documents.

The drive was empty.
(typing)

Empty?

Fucking Korzenik.

He says that his friend
must've screwed with the drive.

Friend? How many people
know about this?

Korzenik.

You asshole.

What did you do
to those documents?

Call me back.

(chattering, laughing)

Where's Korzenik?

Go away.
I'm working here.

I need to talk
to your idiot boyfriend.

He won’t answer my calls.

Get out.

(Sighs)

Hey.
Call him.

Call him.

Call him and I'll leave.

I'll be
right back, baby.

You piece of shit.

(line ringing)

Korzy?

What-

What did you do
with those documents?

KORZENIK (on phone):
Relax. We're going to be rich.

You sold them?

You were going to give them
away, in the name of freedom.

You know what gives you freedom?
Money.

My Russian friend paid big.

Russians?
They sent a car.

Don't worry.
I'm going to cut you in.

Even though you
don't deserve it.

You don't know
what you are doing.

I'm not stupid.

You idiot.

Get out of the car.

Korzy-
(line clicks)

Kommen.

Mr. Korzenik.
Come in.

Where is Boris?

Boris is not here.
You'll be dealing with me.

Please, sit down.

This is my, uh,
colleague, Valentin.

Valentin, say hello. Mmm.

Ivan.
Very nice to meet you.

So, you have
something for me.

I want my money first.

Of course.
Sorry.

Okay?

Yeah.
Okay.

Now I need
something from you.

Excellent.

We will check it.

To business, Mr. Korzenik.

To business.

This is the only copy, right?
Of course.

You sure? Not gonna
trick me or something?

It's the only copy.
I promise.

Good.
So, I go now.

$1

Please..

You know-
(clears throat)

One of my ambitions in life
is to be a trusting person.

I think it's an admirable
quality- you know, trust.

(inhales) People who are
the opposite, who are-

What's the word
in English I mean?

Suspicious?
Cynical.

That's not a pleasant life.

So, you see, I want
to trust you, Mr. Korzenik.

Unfortunately,

I am cynical.

So peaceful.

Don't you think?

(Sighs)

I'm going to smoke.

Will you check on Amena?
Of course.

What, you don't trust me
to have a smoke?

What do you think I'll do?

Swim across the lake while
my daughter is in surgery?

Enjoy your lunch.

General Youssef.

Saul Berenson.

I'm flattered.

Please, have a seat.

We don't have
much time.

Care for one?

General,
you and I both know

the crisis in Syria
is getting worse every day.

You wish me to believe you are
concerned for my country?

Our argument
is with your president,

not with
the Syrian people.

The Islamic State is preparing a
major offensive against the regime.

So? They control half of
all Syrian territory.

Your regular army's been reduced
through casualties and desertions.

Tell me something
I don't know.

Let's talk frankly, General.

You will lose the war.

When Damascus falls,

every Alawi in the country,
including you and your family,

will be slaughtered.

I know you love
your country.

You don't know anything about me.

I know you're
an able commander.

You have a loyal following
among the high-ranking officers.

We believe they will support you
to lead your country.

To lead my-

When you replace Assad.

(chuckles)

This is your solution for Syria?

That's the best one
on the table.

Half of the government ministers
are Bashar's family.

All loyal.
How do I deal with them?

At this moment, we're loading
$10 million onto your jet.

That money will buy you
a great deal of influence.

Bashar has money
to bribe too.

But you, as Syria's
new president-

promising free elections,
democratic reforms-

you'll have the support
of the United States.

This support, it includes
troops and weapons?

We will do what it takes to unite
the country around your government.

But we must act quickly,

before your enemies
gain more strength.

You are wrong.

The world recognizes
the real danger in Syria,

the so-called Islamic State.

As they get stronger,
Bashar no longer looks so evil.

The world will come around.
They will support us against Daesh.

If Assad stays in power,

he'll have to answer
for his crimes.

What crimes?

Barrel bombs. Chemical weapons.
Bullshit. Lies.

We've seen the bodies
in Ghouta.

Assad's already told the world

it was his commanders
who fired the weapons.

Think he'll hesitate to
hand you over to the ICC?

He will not accuse me.

I am not personally responsible for
any of that. Well, I believe you.

I also believe Assad
has demonstrated

he will do anything,
he will say anything

to keep his grip on power.

General,
we're out of time.

I know you're a patriot.

Your people have suffered
so much already.

Show them the way forward.

Lead them into the light.

(Sighs)

(woman whimpering)

(hammer cocks)

(beeping)
(whimpering)

(speaking Russian)

(speaks Russian)

They found it?
Yes. We're good.

Thank you.

It was just that one copy.
I swear.

I only kept it-

(gasping)

Korzy?

Korzy?

(speaks German)

(gasps softly)

I go in, I drop it off,
I gel the next name on the list.

Then we wait for someone
to pick it up?

We wait for Saul
to pick it up.

And when he shows up,
we leave.

And you get as far away
from here as possible.

- Agreed?
- Agreed.

Slide over.
We may have to move fast.

(phone chimes)

(engine starts)

Oh!

(speaks German)

(Sighs)

(school bell rings)

(woman screams)

(groaning) MAN: Come on!

(screaming)

I should take you to a hospital.
No, I'm okay.

You are not okay.
We should pull over.

No. They'll be
coming back to get him.

Who was that?

Whoever wants you dead
wants me dead.

(groans) We have to get
you to the train station.

No.
Your photo's in the drop.

You'll have your cover. You can go.
I am not leaving you.

I'm not.

(panting)

(groans)

(groaning)

Check my back.

(groaning)

- There's an exit wound.
- Good. It went through.

- Could've hit an artery.
-I'd have bled out by now.

We need to get
some morphine into you.

There's a medical kit
on the bench.

Okay.

(groaning)

Quinn, you with me?

All right.

You're all right.

Turn over.
(groans)

All right,
I'm gonna muscle it.

(groans)

We need to put some
pressure on these wounds.

(groans)
All right. Hold on.

- Sit up.
-(groans)

(groans)
Hang on, Quinn.

(chattering in Arabic)

(jet engine whirring)

My colleague asked me
to give you these.

I have a request.

What is it?

I'd like my wife and daughter
to remain behind.

To live in Europe until the
conflict in my country is resolved.

I admire your concern for your
family, but I can't allow it.

Returning to Syria without
them would raise a red flag.

How do you know I'll do this?

I have your money.

When I get home,
I could just do nothing.

Yes. You could.

But we're betting
you're smarter than that.

He asked if his family
could slay behind.

That's a good sign.

Yeah?

Yeah.

It means he knows he's fucked.

It means he might just cooperate.

There's only one number
in the memory.

Call it.

(beeps)

(cell phone ringing)

Da?
(speaking Russian)

(clicks)

(explosion)

Oh, my God.
