Homeland - Season 2 Finale - Review

Homeland Season 2 Episode 12 The Choice Review. Homeland: Season 2, Episode 12: The Choice began like an ordinary season wrap-up episode with a happy ending for Marine Sergeant Nicholas Brody (Damian Lewis) and Ex-CIA Officer Carrie Anderson (Claire Danes) then the show’s writers showed the viewer that this is no fairy tale.

Everything during The Choice was either happy, sad, or bitter-sweet until the pivotal moment in the episode: (spoiler) the explosion. The episodes greatest moment and its greatest flaw. No one noticed that Brody’s car had been moved right outside of the memorial service? That someone besides Brody had driven it there and left it in an area clearly not a parking area? The viewer will find this highly dubious, especially within the home base and compound of one of the most renowned intelligence agencies in the world. Something like that would never go unnoticed by their security people. Do you really think CIA lets cars roam around like that and park wherever they please? What about security protocol and a safety perimeter? Right out the window at that moment. Something far cleaner, something flawless, could have been thought of to place A and B together but it wasn’t. (end spoiler)

That eruption changed everything on the series and everyone’s life in it. None more so than Sergeant Brody’s life. The viewer may have seen people get screwed over before, but not like this. The CIA had given Brody his life back and brought Carrie into it. The terrorist that held him for eight years took it back again and changed his life forever. Changed is the wrong word. Destroyed is more accurate. The terrorist not only destroyed his Sergeant Brody’s life with (spoiler) that bomb (end spoiler), but his future with Carrie and his families’ life as well. His family will forever be the family of the Marine Jihadist that blew CIA headquarters, no matter what the truth really is.
