The antagonist of this episode, Emil Beck, seems to modeled on Edward Snowden, a civilian contractor who absconded with proprietary information from the National Security Agency, the country's foremost authority on Signals Intelligences, or electronic communication, in the name of raising awareness of the Government's intrusion on its citizen's privacy. The only difference was that the antagonist was motivated by more entrepreneurial concerns.
In intelligence circles, a cut-out is an intermediary whose purpose is shield the identity of the person who need protections.
In the beginning of the episode when Matty Webber is sharing intel on Emil Beck with the team, his data on screen states that intelligence also smuggests that he's. Smuggests instead of suggests.
