Homeland: Season 7

Carrie and Franny are living in Washington, D.C., with Carrie's sister Maggie and her family. Carrie has left her job at the White House and is actively working to ensure the release of 200 federal employees Keane has arrested since her inauguration. She attempts to get Dante Allen, her contact at the FBI, to testify in Senator Sam Paley's Congressional investigation into Keane's misconduct, but Dante refuses. Saul, still in federal prison, is offered the position of National Security Advisor by

Carrie spots an unknown woman entering Wellington's apartment on camera. She posts a screenshot of the woman on a 4chan thread attempting to identify her, but is tricked by a hacker into downloading a virus that encrypts her hard drive with ransomware. Carrie lures the hacker to a face-to-face and beats him until he unlocks her computer. Brett O'Keefe, now a fugitive, takes shelter in Lucasville, Ohio with the staunchly right-wing Elkins family, and makes a broadcast accusing Keane of arranging

Dante identifies the woman in Wellington's apartment as Simone Martin, Wellington's girlfriend who received a parking ticket close to the prison where McClendon died. Carrie breaks into Simone's apartment to take photos and collect evidence from her computer, but police arrest her shortly thereafter; Dante later bails her out. Saul arrives at the Elkins' property in Lucasville with the FBI and attempts to negotiate with O'Keefe. However, the family calls in armed reinforcements, leading to a sta

During the standoff at the Elkins' compound, their teenage son J.J. is shot by an FBI patrol; in response, the family patriarch takes an FBI agent hostage. Paramedics collect a wounded J.J. from the scene; at the hospital, an unknown intruder discreetly takes photos and leaks them to the press as evidence that J.J. was left to die in the hospital. Saul calls O'Keefe to warn him that the report is false, but O'Keefe neglects to tell the Elkins family, who are enraged by the news and execute the F

Amid concern over possible violence at an upcoming memorial for victims of the Lucasville massacre, Keane urges the wives of the slain FBI agents to attend the service. The event ultimately proceeds without incident and earns Keane a public relations victory. Saul visits Ivan Krupin in witness protection and presents his theory that Russian operative Yevgeny Gromov was responsible for the fake news story that sparked the Lucasville shootout. Carrie assembles a team of former CIA colleagues along

Simone is subpoenaed by Senator Paley's subcommittee; at the proffer session, she requests immunity in exchange for naming the individual who ordered her to deliver a cash transaction linked to McClendon's death. Carrie realizes that Simone plans to implicate Wellington, who Carrie believes is innocent based on her surveillance; she explains the situation to Saul, who helps Carrie realize that Dante is likely setting her up to target Wellington. Carrie drugs Dante and has the rest of her newly-f

Saul informs Wellington that Simone intends to implicate him in the McClendon investigation on behalf of Russia. A stunned Wellington sends a letter of resignation to Keane, who refuses it. Saul forces Max to join his task force; they learn that Dante and Simone concurrently traveled to the same European cities, and decide to pursue Dante. Carrie has an argument with her sister and leaves with Franny; Dante allows them to stay with him at his apartment. Carrie tracks down Dante's ex-wife, who te

Carrie interrogates Dante, but he requests a lawyer. She takes a break to visit Maggie, who admonishes Carrie over the trauma she has inflicted on Franny, and has her decide between seeking treatment and giving up custody of her daughter to Maggie. Keane, facing pressure to resign by Senator Paley, has Wellington warn Moscow that the U.S. will treat Simone's testimony as a hostile act. The plan backfires when the Russian ambassador notifies Yevgeny, who assembles a team to extract Simone (who is

Dante awakens in the hospital, and informs Carrie that the Russians use a secret Twitter code that alerts Yevgeny's agents to dissolve their network. Saul and Wellington inform Senator Paley of the Russians' subterfuge, including Paley's own unwitting role. When Saul's team deploys the Twitter code, Yevgeny realizes that Dante is cooperating with the authorities, and defies his handlers by tracking down Dante at the hospital. Dante calls Carrie and warns her that Yevgeny is in his hospital room;

Keane's Cabinet pushes to collect enough votes to invoke the Twenty-fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution and remove her from office; in response, Keane preemptively fires four Cabinet secretaries she distrusts. When Keane refuses to reverse her decision, Vice President Ralph Warner is forced to present the Senate with documents declaring Keane unfit for office. Carrie undergoes another round of electroconvulsive therapy following her psychotic episode in the hospital. With Dante dea

Senator Paley visits Dar Adal in jail for insight on Saul's motives in Russia. In Moscow, Saul and Carrie sit down with SVR and GRU representatives including Yevgeny, as a ruse to lure Yevgeny away from Simone. As they speak, Carrie's special ops team storms Simone's safehouse, only to be ambushed by armed guards. Carrie devises an alternative plan: confiscate $300M hidden across U.S. banks by SVR General Yakushin, and use it to leverage him into finding Simone. Yakushin sends an armed battalion

Carrie diverts Yevgeny and his men long enough for Saul and his team to make it to the airport with a disguised Simone in tow. Saul and the others depart for the U.S. with no choice but to leave without Carrie, who is captured by Yevgeny's team. Three days later, Simone testifies in Congress and confirms that the GRU plotted to sabotage the Keane administration; Paley is arrested as a conspirator. Keane is reinstated as President, but in her first public address, she resigns. Yevgeny visits an i
