Outline

Carrie tells Saul about her theory that the Russians want her dead, but Saul refuses to believe her. Saul notices some men tailing him and confronts Allison.

With Quinn gone and Jonas having left her, Carrie turns to Otto for help. Meanwhile, Saul’s war with Dar escalates after Saul tries to convince Dar that the Russians were behind the explosion. With use of his spy wiles, Saul distracts some agents to get a copy of the leaked documents and sends them to Carrie through Otto.

Elsewhere, Quinn is healing after a good samaritan picked him up, preventing his planned suicide. Unfortunately, Quinn ends up inside a dangerous building full of local Arab men loyal to Hajik Zayd, one of a dozen convicted jihadists released from prison after Laura Sutton published the documents exposing how those men were illegally spied on and jailed.

Zayd spots Quinn and displays his dislike immediately. Quinn is allowed to leave but Zayd threatens him with a knife, and Quinn manages to get the upper hand and delivers a blow to the throat that kills Zayd. One of the men asks Quinn to stay one more night and promises he will be safe.
