Redux (Homeland)

Plot

With the news that Saul Berenson (Mandy Patinkin) has been abducted, CIA Director Andrew Lockhart (Tracy Letts) arrives in Pakistan. Lockhart, Martha Boyd (Laila Robins), Carrie (Claire Danes), and other representatives from the U.S. Embassy meet with a delegation of Pakistani intelligence officials. Lockhart accuses the ISI of being complicit with Haqqani, and declares that the U.S. will suspend their federal aid to Pakistan if Saul is not returned safely. Martha, appalled that Lockhart undermined her and potentially sabotaged her working relationships, nearly resigns as ambassador, but Dennis (Mark Moses) convinces her to reconsider. Martha starts reaching out to her contacts in an effort to secure Saul's return.

Haissan Haqqani (Numan Acar) boasts to Saul that he can now move about the country freely without fear of drone strikes, due to the presence of Saul as a "human shield". Haqqani visits his wife and children, who he hasn't seen in three years, with Saul in tow.

Homeland

A homeland (rel. country of origin and native land) is the concept of the place (cultural geography) with which an ethnic group holds a long history and a deep cultural association – the country in which a particular national identity began. As a common noun, it simply connotes the country of one's origin. When used as a proper noun, the word, as well as its equivalents in other languages, often have ethnic nationalist connotations. A homeland may also be referred to as a fatherland, a motherland, or a mother country, depending on the culture and language of the nationality in question.

Motherland

Motherland refer to a mother country, i.e. the place of one's birth, the place of one's ancestors, the place of origin of an ethnic group or immigrant, or a Metropole in contrast to its colonies. People often refer to Mother Russia as a personification of the Russian nation. India is often personified as Bharat Mata (Mother India), a concept that emerged in the late 19th century via the Indian independence movement. The French commonly refer to France as "la mère patrie";Hispanic Americans and 19th century-upper-class Filipinos, commonly referred to Spain as "la Madre Patria", but today this refers to a more cultural and linguistic relationship based on a long and complex mutual history.
