A case officer turns into an agent (or informant or confidential informant) using the acronym MICE, which stands for: MoneyIdeologyCommitment (aka Blackmail)Ego. During Marciano’s dialogue with Dr. Blake, the acronym "OBE" is incorrectly explained as «Overtaken by Events.» In U.S. government agencies, including those within the intelligence community and the Department of Defense, the correct/official acronym for "OBE" is "Overtaken by Events." The opening credits feature characters and scenes from the series interspersed with mirrored panels. Former CIA counterintelligence director James Jesus Angleton, aka the “spy poet,” described the intelligence game as a “desert of mirrors,” a phrase borrowed from a poem by T. S. Eliot called Gerontion (the title is Greek for “old man,” and the poem is an interior monologue recounting the opinions and impressions of an elderly man, describing post-World War I Europe through the eyes of someone who lived most of it. ). In the world of the intellect, in the search for truth, it’s hard to separate reality from its reflection, an illusion, if you will, as if you were in a “hall of mirrors.” The Graham Norton Show stars: Cher / Keira Knightley / Michael Fassbender / Josh Brolin / Jalen Ngonda (2024). The Agency is a must-see for any fan of spy thrillers. First and foremost, the cast is absolutely incredible. It stars Michael Fassbender, Jeffery Wright, Richard Gere, and Katherine Waterston. The cast is reason enough to give this a shot, and it’s also a pretty good show. I wouldn’t be surprised to see this show and most of the cast nominated for multiple awards come awards season. The series is about an undercover CIA agent (Fassbender) who is ordered to leave his secret life behind and go back to the field with his ex-girlfriend (Waterston), who he still loves. His love for her begins to interfere with his real life and mission. If you’re a fan of spy thrillers or a good mystery series, give it a try. You won’t be disappointed.
