The bombing in New York rattles the city and follows Carrie home.
In fact, Carries oddly centered during this hour while everyone around her reacts with panic or fear.
Shes the antithesis to the rage-fueled radio show host the programs called Real.

Truth and has shades of Rush Limbaugh Quinn listened to only a few episodes ago.
The hour opens with that show, as the host blames Keane for turning a blind eye to terrorism.
Hes angry and much of America is, too.
For now, Keane cant let that anger take over.
He watches her, hoping for a reaction; she watches him, without betraying a thing.
Carrie also has a rough morning.
Carrie heads to Sekous apartment, where she hugs his sobbing mother before stopping Conlin from interrogating Simone.
Of course, thats not what Conlin wanted to hear: Get out of here, you hear me?
After she approached him, he had reported their contact up the chain and didnt think about it again.
The revelation stumps Carrie.
He wants to protect them, obviously, but none of this is helping.
Carrie only learns of this after calling Conlin about the third-party mystery at the NSA.
He warns her about whats happening its been deemed a hostage situation and Carrie rushes home right away.
NEXT: Home is where the hostage situation is…
Finally, Carries back on her block, but the law enforcement there prevent her from approaching her apartment.
No one heeds her warnings, however; shes told to calm down instead.
Carries left to watch the monitors as the team confirms Quinns position and tries to enter through a skylight.
They do, for now.
Around the same time, Saul has reentered the United States after finally being allowed out of Tel Aviv.
Clearly, this is what Dar wanted: for Keane to open her eyes.
So, could he have been the one pulling the strings behind the bombing and the isolation of Keane?
He seems to be the most likely suspect, but I smell a red herring.
Maybe Sauls thinking the same thing or maybe he has no clue what Dars up to.
Dar furrows his brows at this but doesnt let anything on.
Saul reveals hes waiting for Javadis confirmation, and Dar doesnt respond.
Back inside Carries apartment, Quinn has tied up the officer, who realizes hes an ex-soldier.
I dont even know where to begin, she says.
What I need to believe is youre protecting Franny.
Thats what I asked you to do when I left here this morning.
I shouldnt have left you alone with her, and Im so sorry.
In the dark, he approaches from behind her, but Carries ready.
She checks on Latisha and Franny first and then asks him about the officer he dragged inside.
And with that, its all over almost.
Inside the safe house, Keane overhears could it be?
Shes hypnotized by this turn of events, and shell have to find a way out soon.
She stares at the photo, putting all of the pieces together before hesitantly heading outside.
What does Saul know?
but also raising some red flags that dont completely fit into the picture.
Sure, shes been careful on condemning terrorists, but what about the president himself?
Why no news on him?
The first battle took place inside Carries home; who knows where the next one will be.
