I had a theory something like that may be where Mike is going. Some (jokingly) think Mike's planning a job himself, but the exposure from Outsmarted would be counter-intuitive. Unless we imagine a double bluff where being too visible to be a spy lets someone be a spy, but that's something out of a parody movie. It's more likely he could use his gained contacts, many of whom have written their own work, and their firsthand info on investigation, intel and counter-intel, bloodhound tracking, tailing and bounty hunting to write a show or movie pitch based on the learning experience, likely starring Adam Levine. Which likely would be on the menu for the millions of pre-established fans of Outsmarted, turning exposure from a shackle into a springboard. All of which would likely be a very careful, clever domino act. In theory.
