This is a negligee.

How about that wine, what do you say? Sure.

The tag is still Is that okay? Yeah.

Jess Jess Hmm? Oh, my Hey.

What they did to you Hey.

Hey Baby Oh, Jess Oh, God Hey.

I'm sorry.

No, it's okay.

I'm so sorry.

Let's sit down here.

It's over.

It's over now, baby.

I'm home.

Okay.

I'm home now, baby.

Okay.

Oh, baby.

Oh, God It hurts What time is it? Quarter after 8:00.

The debrief! I'm late! - Sh*t! - Want a donut? Two calls came in; both hang-ups.

Yeah? One last night, one this morning.

Both times the wife answered; both times there was no one on the other end of the line.

Did a number pop up on a tracer? No, and the calls were blocked.

Is there any way that No, not without a subpoena.

Look, Virgil, if somebody's trying to make contact with Brody, it'll only happen once.

And when it does, we'll be there.

All right? It's all good.

Relax.

All right.

I've got to get dressed.

Many of the men and women in this room are involved in the operation which resulted in your rescue, so we take an extra measure of pride in welcoming you.

Thank you, sir.

Now, we've all read your debrief from Germany, so today we just have a few more questions clarifications, really that might help us in our ongoing fight against Al Qaeda.

- I understand.

- Good.

Good.

We'll, uh, start with Stuart Strickland, lead analyst in our Iraq section.

Sergeant Brody, it's a pleasure.

A few weeks after your capture, Special Forces conducted a direct action mission against a former police HQ in Garma According to your debrief, most of your incarceration was spent at a secret military facility outside Damascus.

What landmarks or structural details can you give us to help pinpoint? Eight months you were smuggled overland to an enemy operating base in Afghanistan.

Now, after so many years, what prompted? Sergeant Brody, my name is Carrie Mathison.

I served as a case officer in Iraq.

Your picture was on our MIA wall.

I saw it every day for five years.

It's good to meet you in person.

Thank you, ma'am.

I'm sorry we were unable to find you sooner.

I appreciate that.

I'd like to start with the first few days of your captivity if you don't mind.

Not at all.

How soon after you were taken did the interrogations begin? Pretty much right away.

What did they want to know? Anything I could tell 'em about U.

S.

ground operations, supply routes, communication codes, rules of engagement.

When you were debriefed in Germany, you said you gave up no such information.

My SERE training was excellent.

And Corporal Walker? Ma'am? Did he give anything up? We were never interrogated together, so I don't know.

But still you must have wondered, especially after you learned of his death.
