Spoiler question about Elizabeth?


How long was she in in that jail and why did Nathan give her to the Chinese?

1. Beirut was 1985, the rescue was April 14/15 1991. 1991-1985 = 6 years.
2. That is explained when Muir says... "After the bombing, Hadley was a threat..... I brokered a deal with the Chinese and she was exchanged for one of our diplomats convicted of espionage." It is scary to think that maybe the CIA would do such a thing?
