I'm pretty sure Galvez is the mole. It seems like the next episode the CIA will start investigating who the mole is, because there was a quote "someone has been feeding information" blah blah blah. Galvez just shows up out of nowhere from the hospital, and according to the teaser for next week, Nazir escapes. Shocking. Unless the writers are misdirecting us to him, I don't see anyone other than Galvez as the mole.

That episode just felt....off. Second one this season(along w/ the tailor episode) that it seemed like they just hired new writers and wrote a randon episode of 24. Brody's phone not tapped anymore? Carrie not telling them to hurry up and protect the VP? Saul assuming Nazir took Carrie but not assuming he would contact Brody? A lot of out of character moments.
agree with all of this. all reasons why a show like this is so hard to write and maintain for seasons at a time.

dara del met quinn on the city bus in last weeks episode galvez could be the mole but how would galvez know estes safe combination or the location of the serial number to the VEEP's pace maker? anyway what I found funny is: the CIA safe house is the most secure place the Brody could be but they dont have security cameras in the bedrooms to monitor: Jessica getting railed by Mike or watch the hallways and there is an unlocked apartment right down the hall that brody could step in to the VEEP Home at the Naval Observatory doesnt have security cameras in every room and brody could just wander around unseen? the home they used for the stand in for the naval observatory has a drive way and a gate but the home is about 60ft from the street. Here is the real thing

Don't think he has been mentioned prior to the last two episodes. Who is the head of the CIA if Estes is the Deputy Director? Seems like Estes is in charge of stuff that should be up to the director.

A lot of people ask that, but it is kind of a theme IMO. They never show never shows or mention the actual President, only VP Walden. The CIA Director is never introduced, only the context of his/her title, a job that Estes covets. It is more of a faceless goal/aspiration, being President for Walden and Director for Estes. I guess the writers find it unnecessary to show us the President or Director until they want to include them in the story somehow. Instead, they choose to focus on the wants and desire of the characters we already know.

I think that was a meeting room or a stairwell.

At this point the mole is either Galvez or Estes was boning the reporter and let it all slip. -or maybe Carrie has MPD and is a terrorist herself.

I gotta admit, I am going to be disappointed if the mole is Galvez

(At least those pining for a little mole-on-mole action got some foreplay. Galvez may not heal as quickly as Quinn, but he sure found his phone interesting when Carrie was reporting in about Nazir's location, huh?)

I understand having multiple story lines but why are they concentrating so much on Brody's daughter? Her show-killing scenes are nearly unwatchable while all she does is act the bitch and raise her eyebrows. This better lead to something good.

She's having Daddy issues. I still think she's going to die... the question remains whether or not she'll make peace with her father before it happens. No idea how it's all going to tie in with Brody tho.

Just to throw out another theory, how about Nazir is working for/assisting Dar Adul. Dar Adul and Nazir share the same motives by wanting the VP dead. Estes provides Nazir info that trickles down to Roya and Brody. Brody still "loves" Nazir so Nazir is likely the only one who can motivate/convince Brody to kill the VP. Quinn would have killed Brody if Nazir was captured because the operation would then be over and Brody would be rendered useless with Nazir gone. This can also explain how Nazir got into the country. Didn't Quinn show up around the same time Nazir was confirmed as being in the US? I don't think this isthe case but it was something I thought about.

Quinn was in a few episodes before Nazir was known to be in the US. But other than that your speculation seems plausible or just plausible as any other ideas out there.

Galvez is not the mole. It's too obvious. They are trying to force you to think that when it will be someone else
