Because Carrie, that die-hard patriot we had seen time and time again risk her life, forsake her man and scupper her mental acuity for the sake of protecting her country, suddenly made a deal to work for "the firm" - whatever dark, foreign forces that was supposed to signify, headed strangely by a Piers Morgan lookie-likie with a nice pool, speaking a distinctly anti-American game.


Oh, except she didn't. Because it turned out she was actually hand in glove with her old protector Saul, and hadn't betrayed anybody after all. Which meant all those eye-rolling, hair-pulling episodes in which we'd invested so much energy previously turned out to be all part of a cunning plan.
