'Homeland' season 4 episode 6: Is Carrie losing it in 'From A to B and Back Again'?

Carrie wants to get her answers and she's going to get them in whatever way possible.

In the last episode of "Homeland," Carrie was able to get a confession from Aayan, that his uncle Haissam Haqqani is indeed alive. This sets her operation in motion, but there's one more problem: where is Saul?

Episode 6 is titled "From A to B and Back Again," and Showtime's official synopsis reads:

 "Carrie Mathison's (Claire Danes) plan to recruit drone strike survivor Aayan Ibrahim (Suraj Sharma) in her attempt to discover the truth about CIA chief Sandy Bachman's (Corey Stoll) death will go into full effect."

The preview looks really intense. It shows Aayan escaping the safehouse and meeting with his uncle again. It also shows the gang worrying where Saul is and, lastly, it gives a glimpse of Carrie commanding someone to take the shot during an attempted drone strike. Carrie looks like she's losing it.

"Take the shot, goddamn it!" says Carrie while Quinn holds her back.

He says, "Are you out of your mind?"

Is that drone strike targeting Haqqani? Or is it the people who captured Saul?

There are also two clips released for the show. The first is "There are No Limits" which shows Carrie talking to Aayan in the safehouse about their escape.  The other clip is "The Boy" and it shows a heated talk between Carrie and Fara.

Fara asks Carrie about Aayan but refers to him as "a boy" and Carrie doesn't like it at all.  Carrie crosses the line when she blames Fara for being responsible for her recruiting Aayan the way she did.

But Fara answers back and says, "There wouldn't be an operation if it weren't for me. I followed Aayan, I found out Haqqani's alive, so don't treat me like I'm the enemy." 

Watch "Homeland" this Sunday at 9 p.m. on Showtime.
