There’s the old movie trope of prison inmates using hand mirrors so that they can see one another from cell to cell as they talk. Here, Feathers McGraw has repurposed a sardine tin as a mirror. From his quarters, he sees the screen of the computer he’s hacked into. It’s Wallace’s computer, and there’s Wallace, welcoming the user to his secret files. And then we see Feathers.

Are prison inmates permitted to have mirrors? Do they use them to communicate? It seems so, though the mirrors are not likely to be glass, and the inmates are not likely to be penguins.
