Robert Hanssen was supposed to be very good at detecting lies. Remember when he asked Eric to tell 5 five things, 1 of them is a lie, and he spotted the lie straight away. So, how come he couldn't tell when Eric was lying about the PDA?
shareI think he had become very fond of Eric and he wanted to believe him.
sharemy exact quesiton
and if hanssen was so devious and couldnt be caught by all the super agents, why did he slip?
this is what makes the movie compleeing....going on the "basedon a true story" especially
assuming they didnt embelish too much whichi believe is the case as they even acknowledge by saying in words that the other agent retired in may, not feb when he walked down the hallway with his box -- cuz i odnt know much about fbi life tho im sure retiring takes more than walking away with a box! lol)
he was able to infiltrate Hanssen by preying on his devout religicism
and/or hanssen wanted to get caught?

The reason why he took his things with him (in the box), was because he was done with his assignment.
All these voices in my head, and not a single one I understand.
