This episode follows its Cold War operations in Iran, Guatemala and Cuba, the investigations that reshaped oversight, its role in Afghanistan and the changes that followed 9/11. How did an agency created to coordinate intelligence acquire the power to influence events abroad, and how has the United States tried to hold that power to account?
