Charlize was Satchel.

Percival was meant to be MI6 but basically went on a power trip, didn't have an interest in the war ending because he loved Berlin.

Boughton killed him because a) he knew she was a triple agent and b) he killed Frenchy - her love interest

Yes, she called him Satchel in the scene where she kills him. He responds something like: "So that's how you're going to get away with it." And then we see her editing the tape that she plays to them, stitching the parts together to make it look like he's Satchel. He's not.

Bakhtin calls her Comrade Satchel because, to all intents and purposes, for them, she is. That's who she's been to provide them with false intel (although presumably she's also provided them with a lot of legit details).

So she is Satchel. And yes, she's CIA. She's a triple agent. This is yet another film where the CIA are pulling all the strings of everything that ever happens in the world, with a mysterious, inexplicable agenda, from the shadows. Not sure why...

That's my take on it anyway.

Except that's how it really works in real life, the CIA carries out the agenda of Israel and the global elite.

Speaking of the CIA, I cannot wait until the new season of Homeland.

JFC. As if any of that crap was even hinted at in the movie... Conspiracy theorists gonna theorize.
