They disguised kits.

Now, disguised full-on transformational disguises don't play a role in this operation, so there's no prosthetics or anything like that.

Mendes did consider it, but none of them had any experience with prosthetics.

And he felt like, again, if you're going through the airport and your ear falls off- It doesn't look good.

People pay attention.

Your mustache goes like that.

Yeah, exactly.

But they do have a version of kind of lighter disguise.

So, they send, you know, stylic gel makeup, kind of mod glasses with thicker rims, eyeliner, you know, typed instructions for each person on how they could modify their appearance.

Because at this point...

The agency, I think, is working under the presumption that the Iranians know that there are missing Americans.

Maybe not exactly who is missing yet, but that there are missing Americans and they might have photographs of these people.

And so you want to modify your appearance slightly.

They also send, you know, for example, I mean, if they're a film crew.

Well, you would need cameras, right?

So, they send prop kits, cinematographer's viewfinder, a schedule of the phony film shoot because Argo is commencing principal photography in March of 1980.

And so, there's going to be a schedule for how the film would be made.

Studio six business cards, a copy of the screenplay, the Jack Kirby concept art, those sketches.

You also need plane tickets, right?

Mendez wants to do this on Swissair.
