In the 1987 film “Predator,” the CIA agent who summons and accompanies the rescue team is Al Dillon.
Dillon, played by Carl Weathers, is a former military comrade of Dutch Schaefer. He joins Dutch’s elite team in a Central American jungle, officially presenting their mission as a rescue operation after a helicopter carrying a government minister is shot down.
The mission’s true purpose is later exposed: the supposed rescue is a covert operation involving captured CIA personnel and a guerrilla camp. Dillon has withheld crucial information from Dutch, who becomes angry after discovering that his team has been used for an assassination mission rather than a straightforward rescue.
Mac, Billy, and Dutch are members of Dutch’s paramilitary team, not CIA agents. Dillon’s role is especially important because he connects the team’s military expertise to the CIA’s hidden agenda. The character was named Dillon, although the film’s dialogue and credits commonly use the shorter form “Dillon” rather than a more elaborate title.
