A probe against the government
It looks like Senator Sam Paley will be President Elizabeth Keane’s biggest enemy in “Homeland” Season 7, Christian Post reported.
Dylan Baker's character thinks that the POTUS’ is up to no good, so he wants the past rebellion to be investigated. To recall, Carrie Mathison (Claire Danes) and Peter Quinn (Rupert Friend) saved Keane from death in the previous season. As the coup failed, the country’s leader then ordered her people to capture everyone that ha anything to do with the revolution; this included Saul Berenson (Mandy Patinkin).
Two hundred people were captured and they were all accused of rebellious acts for targeting the administration. Carrie tried her best to talk to Keane and save Saul, but she blocked every possible way that Carrie could try to reach her.
Carrie to face Keane
Carrie will be quitting her job as Keane’s senior advisor and will be rejoining the CIA in “Homeland” Season 7.
As Keane is said to be targeting the intelligence community, the CIA included, Carrie will be doing her best to stop her evil plans. In fact, she will be leading the conclave against the President of the United States.
However, it looks like she will have a problem.
Carrie’s brother-in-law Bill (Mackenzie Astin) is set to join Keane’s government under the Department of Treasury, according to the Hollywood Reporter. With that, there is a big possibility that Keane will use him against her.
Fortunately, she will be getting the help of her old friend, Dante Allen.
Morgan Spector will be joining the television show’s seventh season to play the role of Carrie's pal. He, too, will be investigating Keane and the other 200 people the president ordered detained.
