Homeland Season 6 Episode 2 "“The Man in the Basement”"

A new president has been elected in "Homeland" and this is causing quite a stir in the show. As for Carrie (Claire Danes), an American Muslim has been trending online for pointing out spots that have been targeted by terrorists. Whether this is actually free speech or an act of discrimination will be determined as the show moves on. Showtime’s hit series Homeland is back on the air, and some questions were answered from the conclusion of season 5. After stopping a Berlin terrorist attack in the last season, Carries finds herself back in the USA for season 6. She’s currently residing in Brooklyn and works for a non-government organization that protects the rights of Muslim Americans. We see Carrie visiting the former super-spy Quinn. He is not doing so well after his gas chamber experience from the fifth season. The effects of his brain trauma are more than obvious. Carrie attempts to be encouraging, but Quinn doesn’t want to hear any of it. Later on we see that Quinn being left alone is a bad thing as he sneaks out of the center and ends up at a brothel with a female friend. An associate of that female friend eventually robs Quinn of his remaining cash from, a disability check. We also see Saul and Dar Adal dealing with the new President-elect Elizabeth Keane. It’s clear that she intends to take action in regards to the USA’s current military occupation in the Middle East. However, she acknowledges that her power is non-existent until her inauguration. The meeting leaves Saul and Dar a bit concerned about the future of their military initiatives. Another important piece from the first episode is the introduction of Sekou. He is a young Muslim man that records videos at previous terrorist attack locations. This leads to him becoming a perceived national threat. As a result, the CIA burst into his family’s apartment to perform a search of the premises and detain Sekou. He is now Carrie’s new client, and it won’t be an easy case for her. This leads us into episode 2 which is entitled “The Man in the Basement.” Here is the official description of it from Showtime: Carrie and Reda fight for their client while Quinn fights against his new life. Saul and Dar suspect Keane has a secret.
