"You turned your back on your entire life. What are you atoning for? Keeping America safe? You're being naive and stupid -- something you never were before."

Way harsh, Saul.

The calm, collected once-and-future CIA director -- played by Mandy Patinkin -- and his unpredictable protégée, Carrie (Claire Danes), are at odds in this new teaser for Homeland's next season. According to these 30 seconds of footage, the Emmy-winning series' upcoming installment will also feature a beating, a kidnapping, stacks of cash, at least one explosion -- and, of course, lots and lots of brooding.

What, you want an official description of what to expect? Your wish is our command: "Season 5 will pick up two years after Carrie Mathison’s ill-fated tenure as Islamabad station chief. Struggling to reconcile her guilt and disillusionment with years of working on the front lines in the ‘war on terror,’ Carrie finds herself in a self-imposed exile in Berlin, estranged from the CIA and working for a private security firm."
