Back in The USA

Carrie Mathison (played by Claire Danes) has return to New York after spending some time in Germany. Peter Quinn (played by Rupert Friend) survived his ordeal but his injuries caused some changes in him that strained his relationship with Carrie. The added domestic pressure of taking her daughter may cause her to stop working for the Central American Intelligence (CIA), according to EW. Carrie will instead work for a non-profit organization that raised awareness about the on-going of discrimination of Muslims.

The Agency's old warhorse, Saul Berenson (played by Mandy Patinkin) is also coming back. He has become more devoted to the CIA than he has ever been. The upcoming season will again explore the working and personal relationship of Saul and Carrie.

The last season though will probably end in Israel since it was the place where the show began according to Gansa. Production is currently underway in New York. Expected air date premiere is on January 15, 2017.
