And in this case, it's the Canadian diplomatic pouches.

I mean, it's literally a guy who takes them, a bag.

Into the embassy.

The hand carries it.

And a hand carries it the whole way, a Canadian citizen.

So it's not... An Iranian national is not handling that bag at any point in its journey.

So it's not X-rayed, intercepted, searched, nothing like that.

So all of that, you're right, it's being produced...

in this joint operation between the Canadians and the CIA in Ottawa, and then sent by diplomatic pouch to Tehran.

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.
