Cultural References

General Beckman: The bug Chuck found is a GLG-20.

GLG-20 is a reference to the film, Spies Like Us. The film starred Chevy Chase and Dan Aykroyd where they played a pencil pusher and code breaker respectfully. They took a foreign service exam, poorly. But because they were so bad, they were chosen as decoys and given the rank of GLG-20.
