Trouble at the border
11 December 2013
Warning: Spoilers
Having agreed to take part in the mission Brody is taken to a remote part of Kurdish Iraq near the Iranian border. It is intended that his team will take up to the border and once over he will claim to have been assisted by Al Qaida and request asylum… of course these things never go quite as planned. As they wait near the border they are approached by Kurdish police and later by Iraqi soldiers who start firing on them meaning the operation could be over before Brody even crosses the border. Back in the US Carrie and Saul watch the operation unfold and try to get it back on track as various things go wrong.

This was the best episode of the season so far; the tension is high when Brody gets to the border and keeps getting higher; especially during three shocking scenes one of which makes it look as though Brody could have been killed or at least left seriously injured and another right at the end of the episode… I won't say any more about them as I'd hate to give too much away! The action is expertly directed and the acting is top notch which only serves to keep things exciting… it was such that when the closing credits began I couldn't believe a whole episode could have passed… the time just flew by.
