141 sleeper
Спящий. A sleeper — это большой деревянный брус, на который укладывают рельсы, т. е. шпала. Это также название спального вагона. В мире шпионажа так называют шпиона, который засылается в другую страну и остаётся там без действия на протяжении какого-то времени до тех пор, пока не понадобится его деятельность.We are only just discovering that the country was riddled with sleepers, who spent many years establishing themselves as respectable citizens before they received instructions from their controllers. — Мы только сейчас начинаем осознавать, что наша страна была наводнена «спящими» агентами, которые жили у нас много лет, зарекомендовали себя уважаемыми гражданами, прежде чем они получали инструкции от своих «хозяев».
