CIA director is dumb


He can't tell if the satellite photos are China's coastline or not.

Lol...Could have been something that was missed.

It wasn't a pic of the entire coastline. Just a brief segment.

No, reflect how he gives a tiny smile when Muir says, near the end..."He's well trained".
Wilson's smile says..."Yes, and YOU trained him well"
This is one more subtle piece of brilliant writing, directing and acting.

Yeah but he should know better than dumbly ask "this China?"

reply

It wasn't the entire coastline - it was zoomed in.

You might know the outline of China on a map, but to recognize every single bay or beach is impossible.

Besides, it wasn't China at all - it was The Bahamas... So it was a prudent question.
