The way a police officer becomes an agent (or informant or confidential informant) is through the use of the acronym MICE, which stands for: MoneyIdeologyCompromise (aka Blackmail)Ego. During Martian’s dialogue in a discussion with Dr. Blake, the acronym «OBE» is incorrectly explained as «Overtaken by Events.» In U.S. government agencies, including those in the Intelligence Community and the Department of Defense, the correct/official explanation for the acronym «OBE» is «Overtaken by Events.» The opening credits feature the characters and scenes from the series interspersed with glass panes of mirror. Former CIA Director of Counterintelligence James Jesus Angleton, also known as the “spy poet,” has described the intelligence game as the “wilderness of mirrors,” a phrase borrowed from a T.S. Eliot poem called Gerontion (the title means “little old man” in Greek and the poem is an interior monologue recounting the opinions and impressions of an elderly man, describing Europe after World War I through the eyes of a man who lived most of his life in the 19th century). In the world of intelligence, in the search for truth, it is difficult to distinguish between reality and its reflection, an illusion of sorts, as if one were in a “hall of mirrors.” Starring on The Graham Norton Show: Cher/Keira Knightley/Michael Fassbender/Josh Brolin/Jalen Ngonda (2024). The Agency is a must-see for all fans of spy thrillers. First of all, the cast is absolutely incredible. It stars Michael Fassbender, Jeffrey Wright, Richard Gere, and Katherine Waterston. This cast is reason enough to give this show a try and it’s a really good show. I wouldn’t be surprised to see this show and most of the cast nominated for awards come awards season. The show is about a CIA undercover agent (Fassbender) who is ordered to leave his life as an undercover agent and return to the field with his ex-lover (Waterston) who he is still in love with. His love for her begins to interfere with his real life and the mission. If you’re a fan of spy thrillers or a good crime series, give this one a try. You won’t be disappointed.
