The first espisode was disappointing, the second one a disaster, and this 3rd one is a bit better but still not on par with any episode of the previous seasons, period !
Sure, we finally got to see Brody but if you look at it objectively not much happened and it's not filling the gap between the 2nd and 3rd season. I think this gap is the big problem with this season, it doesn't fill in the blanks, and it surely doesn't do it with any tempo. After 3 episodes people are still not up to speed to what happened after the attack.
Brody finds himself in a very odd location that makes no damn sense. Out of all countries he's being held in Caracas/Venzuela, come on now. He has a $10 million bounty on his head yet he is being held in a crackhouse/projects where every dope-head will sell his mamma for a hit. He even moves around in the building and is surrounded by a lot of guards that seem to be extremely loyal. They must be making some serious money not to be tempted to turn him in.
The Carrie mental thing is getting boring and to make a long story short the main characters are losing their shine. They simply don't really appeal anymore, nor do they feel special in any way which results in a broken connection between the viewer and the actor/actress.
I am not sure what thy have planned for the remaining episodes but it must be something out of this world in order to cleanse the foul taste of the previous eps and reconnect with the audience.
1 positive side, the Brody family didn't appear in this episode if i recall correctly, which is a relief as they simply serve no function now that the truth about Brody is out in the open (end of season 2). They are simply victims with shame and issues and are somehow not interesting.
