[[Elizabeth Bentley]] is perhaps the classic study of excitement being the motivating factor. Bentley began her espionage career with a fascist organization, but quickly joined a communist entity, so ideology does not seem to apparent.  Bentley then became the lover of a high-level CPUSA underground operative who had been a [[chekist]].  When he died and Bentley took over his operations, her personal loss was had a huge impact on her work.  Excitement, romance, and sex was why she ever got involved originally. And when she lost those things, she defected back to her home country.

==Phased withdrawal==

Once a counterintelligence mission is completed and an intelligence product secure, a phased withdrawal from the main target is necessary so as to maintain operational security on sources and methods.

In the case were cover is blown and a forced shut down necessary before securing an intelligence product, a phased withdrawal is still necessary, ''albeit'' in a more hurried fashion.
