Homeland

1. Characters: describe them.

Carrie Mathison is a CIA officer who, while on assignment in Iraq, learned from a CIA asset that an American prisoner of war had been turned by al-Qaeda. After a U.S. Marine platoon sergeant named Nicholas Brody is rescued from captivity, Mathison believes that he is the POW described to her. Carrie's investigation of Brody is complicated by her bipolar disorder and results in an obsession with her suspect.

Nicholas Brody was a USMC Sergeant who was held as a prisoner of war by al-Qaeda terrorists for eight years. Following his rescue and return home, Brody was hailed as a war hero. However, a CIA officer, Carrie Mathison, suspects that Brody was turned by al-Qaeda, and tries to stop him from potentially committing a terrorist act.

Jessica Brody is Brody's wife, who struggles to adjust with his return to her life. Assuming her husband is dead, she begins a relationship with Mike.

David Estes is the ambitious Director of the Counterterrorism Center of the CIA.

Major Mike Faber is a U.S. Marine and a friend of Nick Brody. During Nick's eight-year absence, Mike started a relationship with Nick's wife, Jessica, which ended when Nick was rescued.

Chris Brody is the son of Nicholas Brody.

Dana Brody is the daughter of Nicholas Brody.

Saul Michael Berenson is Carrie Mathison's mentor and to some extent, protector at the CIA.
