Mike Rinder and Marc Headley dive into the current state of Scientology's Office of Special Affairs (OSA), revealing how the once-powerful intelligence arm is now struggling to keep up with mounting challenges and criticisms.

• OSA is Scientology's spy wing, previously known as the Guardian's Office which perpetrated the largest infiltration of the US government in history
• Many Guardian's Office members are still working in OSA today despite Scientology's claims they were removed
• Key legal figures like Kendrick Moxon (unindicted co-conspirator) still work as OSA's legal counsel
• Warren McShane, President of RTC, was previously intelligence head for Guardian's Office New York
• OSA currently has too many crises to effectively handle them all – Danny Masterson case, Switzerland legal failures, UK event planning issues
• The explosion of ex-members speaking out has increased "10x in six months"
• OSA surprisingly paid back Rosemary Chickwack's money without requiring a release or gag order
• David Miscavige's paranoia and management style causes high turnover and chaos within OSA
• Many OSA failures are directly caused by Miscavige's irrational demands and temper
• Former OSA executives note they can't possibly monitor all the SPTV content being created
