Spoilers ahead. Coverage follows the scope labeled below.

Plot summary

Dar betrays Javadi to Mossad; Javadi covertly calls Carrie to allow her to trace his location, but he is extracted before she and Saul arrive. Carrie finds Javadi's phone, which contains footage of Nafisi confessing his allegiance to Mossad. Carrie and Saul present the footage to Keane as evidence that Dar is behind the conspiracy to mislead her about Iran. Keane involves the current solicitor general, whom she intends to appoint as attorney general in her administration; he advises Carrie to testify that Dar covered up the Russian infiltration of the CIA's Berlin station, which would be a ground for prosecuting him.

Carrie, aware that her doing so would disgrace Saul, says she has to speak with him first. Max goes to work undercover at the private company Conlin was investigating, and learns that it is a massive troll farm run by O'Keefe. Quinn ambushes Dar at his home and is told Dar did not order the hit on him and Astrid, but he hears Dar then call Belli to remonstrate with him; Belli tells Dar that someone else ordered the hit. Quinn is able to trace the call to Belli's location.
