"Separation Anxiety" does an impressive job of setting up for the season ahead.

While the main plotlines as they exist are a bit on the "meh" side for me personally, it's only the first episode, so things could definitely improve. Here's hoping, at least.

Homeland's meandering season four finale and season five's taut premiere 'Separation Anxiety' both pivot on the same question, and what's startling is that the answer might actually be yes.

For an episode that had quite a bit of legwork to do in introducing some new characters, a new location, and a new geopolitical crisis for Carrie to initially muck up and then eventually solve, "Separation Anxiety" did good work.

Now that Carrie is out of the CIA, and the show's other great characters - Quinn and Saul - are still there, it will be interesting to see how the writers use them in season five.

Howard Gordon and Alex Gansa have always constructed Homeland from the global strife and American paranoia of the moment, but an adventure set amid a real and worsening humanitarian crisis is its grandest flight of non-escapism yet.

Carrie's character progression is so interesting, and it makes what happens in the premiere somewhat unsettling, given how hard she has tried to step away from her former life.

"Separation Anxiety" may not be the most thrilling way to start Season 5, but it proved to be a telling and effective example of foundation-building.
