(3) For "double agent," Maltz liked the slang expression jey'naS ghoqwI'
(literally, "double-headed ax spy"). He said the non-slang term 'o'wen
could also be used for "double agent," but its meaning is a bit broader --
it's used to refer to someone (or something) of ambiguous status. As Maltz
put it, "You're not quite sure if it's this or that. You think it's one
thing, and it may be, but it may be another."
And who is the Owen in US culture or television to whom Marc refers?
