New Normal

Homeland 5×10

& Dar Adal: Look, you’ve made your point. But your part in this play is over. You need to go.
    Carrie: Saul?
    Dar Adal: You’re excused.

& Bibi: ...were ravaged by the Post-World War One architects of the Middle East, who tore apart the Khilafah and made it into countries ruled by man-made laws. Our demands are simple. Erase these borders from the maps, remove them from our hearts, so that Muslims can once again live freely in their lands. So that by Allah’s good grace, his word can once again be highest. We give the UN Security Council 24 hours to recognize the legitimacy of our Islamic State. Otherwise, ...

& Allison: Am I under arrest?
    Dar Adal: It’s something of an open question at the moment.

& Qasim: These governments might give in.
    Bibi: But they won’t. They can’t. Not now. They’ll posture and rant about how evil we are and try to retaliate.
    Qasim: Then wh-why bother with all this?
    Bibi: So that their people can blame them for what’s about to happen. They might not listen to us this time, or the next, but the time after that, sooner than they think, they will realize that denying us will cost them more than they’re willing to pay.

& Saul: Joe, we should be warning people here. We haven’t faced anything on this scale since 9/11.
    Joe: The idea was raised and rejected.
    Saul: Why?
    Joe: You know why. We can’t give these assholes license to send our cities into mass panic anytime they feel like it. It’s the new normal, gentlemen.

& Astrid: Quinn never did anything he didn’t want to... He was a complete pain in the ass that way. Stubborn as a mule. But beautiful, too.
