Spooks Quote
[after Danny asks him if he has a plan for proving Tom innocent]
Adam Carter: I did something once, when I was stationed in Damascus. I made up a story to discredit a high-ranking intelligence officer from the Syrian Secret Service. The guy was a torturer, real pig, who was about to find out that his wife was an agent I was running. I had to stop him so I put it about that the pig was not a pig but a mole, working for the Israeli Secret Service and do you know what? Turned out to be true.
Danny Hunter: What happened?
Adam Carter: The Syrians angered, Israelis went ape of course...
Danny Hunter: What about the agent?
Adam Carter: I married her. [laughs] You'll meet her, she's gorgeous. Don't plan too much Danny, let things just... crinkle out.
