shoe shop - minor spoiler


What is the point of a cover shop, when it is so obvious it is fake?
Surely a cover should be able to operate as .. whatever it is pretending to be ... so not to raise suspicion.
A shoe shop with a) Absolutly no shoes at all b) rude and dismissive staff serves activly draws attention...

I agree. That was the stupidest thing ever. Every time someone comes in, who's not a crook, they say they don't have that size without even knowing the size. That's the worse cover ever!


Woman, man! That's the way it should be Tarzan. [Tarzan and his mate]

Yes. Agreed. The cover only works if they actually sell the product. It was ridiculous. The film was enjoyable apart from that shoe shop with no shoes!
