I don't own a television: Gerontion

Homeland Episode 3-07 "Geronition"

Written by Chip Johannsen

Directed by Carl Franklin

Gerontion is a T.S. Elliot poem which I would normally read except that I have three of these episodes piled up, plus Boardwalk, plus shows I don't even write about so just check out Wikipedia if you're interested
Literally returning to the scene of the crime the homicide detectives are going over Farida's body. Except this is no ordinary homicide detective. It's Meldrick Lewis of the Baltimore Police Department!

Previously linked this scene of his. Here's another one from an early episode that dealt with an assisted suicide being investigated as a Homicide
James Yoshimura, a producer on this show and Homicide, has to be the link between these Homicide folks showing up on Homeland.
That or there are two rooms locate dnext to each other because they are next to each other alphabeticall, and the actors keep going into the wrong one
This is awesome
This is really awesome
IMDB says the character is named Calvin Johnson so we will alternate between calling him Meldrick and calling him Detective Megatron

Javadi's question about how the murder is covered up seems like sincere curiousity about the how intelligence works in the United States. Like, if there were an intelligence conference at a convention center and people came from all sorts of intelligence communities there could be a working group or breakout session called "Murder: How is it covered up?" where everyone could compare notes
Saul and Javadi's interview plays a lot like this season's version of "Q&A"
Because Carrie's pregnant, she has morning sickness and acted motherly toward the screaming kid. I mean, no one else put it in the playpen so it wouldn't wander over dead bodies.
Lockhart is the guy who wants the new technologies to replace old school HUMINT, but he is also stuck in the old way of thinking where "you hit us we hit you, rawr, revenge!" without looking at the bigger picture.

Compare to Lockhart wanting to change, discussing with Dar Adal
At first it's kind of the opposite of Moneyball where the character we are supposed to sympathize with is of the new school and needs to get it past these crotchety old men stuck in the past. But then we look deeper into it and Lockhart really just lacks a vision and a grasp of the entire picture and long game like Saul is trying to play. So they disagree not only on tactics but on overall strategy and goals.

Quinn proposes the exact solution that the cops want and that Carrie was going to take to them. Or maybe she telepathically got him to say that.
Fara's going to kill Javadi with scissors. Maybe Carrie told her a war story about chasing down Abu Nazir with a pipe
Javadi immediately starts probing Carrie when they are in the car together. He's a spy and he can't or won't turn it off
Who moved the bomb?
Have you done anything but make things worse?

Peter Quinn's been questioning things all season (if this damage is justified for the greater good) since he shot that kid and about now he's really ready to hang up the sniper rifle
