re: Homeland

Here's my outlandish prediction


(SPOILERS)



- Jalal does not die in the strike but uses it as fuel to flame the nuclear war between Pakistan and the US. Add in bandages on his face and body for dramatic effect as he saws someone's head off

- Carrie confronts Saul with a cry face but they ultimately work a plan out where Saul lives out the rest of his years in Israel with the estranged wife

- Yevgeny's feelings for Carrie finally do him in and he agrees to a deal that gets him what he wants but doesn't work out in the end as Carrie attempts to sacrifice herself to save the asset and Saul. Jenna Bragg shows up to get Carrie to safety at the last possible moment.

- David Wellington suicides Zabel (Wishful Thinking)

- The President finally has a nervous breakdown and uses racial slurs on TV

- The Americans finally get the black box but Russia has pulled a bait and switch and there is no data on it. Maybe it's 10 hours of Rick Astley.

- Nuclear war starts

- Carrie somehow survives until the end of the episode and is chasing a lead to get to Yevgeny in Moscow before time runs out

- Carrie finally thinks she has him and calmly walks into the Kremlin to find that Saul has been captured and tortured

- Jenna Bragg is a double agent and Moscow's plan B and kills Carrie as the credits roll and someone pushes a big red button to send a nuke.

Bonus prediction: Saul is wearing flannel and has worked out a deal with Moscow to be a lumberjack in the end. (This is Showtime, remember)

Bonus prediction 2: The source in Russia is not the lady but is actually Yevgeny who was a student who survived in the 80's.
