Rebel Rebel takes place primarily in three arcs: Carries, Sauls, and Bretts.
Hes preaching to his followers about the early casualty in our revolution that is the recently murdered General McClendon.
However, he is most certainly engendering a dangerous breed of revolutionary, as hell learn this week.
Meanwhile, President Keane is encouraged by her chief of staff David Wellington to change the conversation.
If she doesnt do it now, shell eventually have to incarcerate everyone in Washington.
David takes the news to Saul.
Theyve agreed to his terms, but hell have to be part of the Keane team.
He doesnt have to be a cheerleader, but he cant be openly critical either.
Can Saul fix this broken administration?
Meanwhile, what will Carrie do without a cause like the 200 to give her focus?
And Carries sister is understandably worried that losing Quinn may have sent her over the edge.
Quinn would have understood Carries current mission to save the country from a ruthless dictator.
Carrie doesnt have him or Saul anymore, and she makes mistakes when shes on her own.
One of those cameras captures a mysterious woman writing a note in the kitchen.
Carrie gets a screen grab and sends it to Dante, her contact fromlast weeks season premiere.
Of course, after Dantes meeting with Senator Paley went horribly, Dante wants nothing to do with her.
Alone again, Carrie takes the grab and puts it on 4Chan, asking if anyone knows the woman.
Of course, its just ransomware and now she has to pay $5,000 to unlock her computer.
Thats when things getwayworse.
It turns out that the hacker who was holding Carries computer hostage was alsolisteningto her and Max.
And now he knows he has something more valuable than your average laptop.
Meanwhile, President Keane is having aggressive meetings in the Oval Office.
Hes not having it.
He even brings up the mysterious death of Keanes No.
David threatens to put all of the weight of the White House behind getting Paley out of office.
She decides to bluff her hacker, saying that David got off on the surveillance.
Hell have to meet her in person for more.
While Carrie deals with her nightmare, Saul is fulfilling his first assignment, finding Brett OKeefe.
A revolution feels like its brewing and Saul can sense it.
It feels like things hes seen in Afghanistan, Syria, and other hot spots around the world.
And so, Saul appeals to one of the cops sense of community.
He needs to bring in Brett peacefully, or there could really be civil war.
This way, nobody gets hurt.
At the same time, Carrie goes to meet her hacker.
He tells her to turn around.
Her lip is quivering, and theres a sense of real danger to the moment.
He comes up behind her and touches her back, rubbing it.
They fight, and of course hes no match for a trained CIA agent.
She bites him and pulls out a baton, viciously beating him.
Angry Carrie nearly does just that, stopping short of choking him to death.
And then she leaves.
Dont mess with Carrie Mathison.
Other Notes
Carries hacker is credited at the end only as Troll.
The actor is Jordan Wood-Robinson, whom you may recognize fromThe Walking Dead.
Hes just got that FBI look.
The opening credits are back after a short absence last week.
Those two words might be the theme of the entire season.
