He probably has some kind of hidden agenda or bone to pick with the CIA as a whole and is determined to effectively supplant the CIA as a whole by becoming their premier contractor when the DCS decides in-house personnel are unable to effectively secure their black sites.

* Looks confirmed. In fact the entire arc seems to have been one giant XanatosGambit on Wilcox's part. No matter who does what, he wins. Annie is being badly outplayed.

[[WMG: Henry Wilcox wanted Annie to tail him.]]
He tosses off a seemingly random comment: "When I was at the farm, they taught us to use our mirrors." Now, he was ostensibly criticizing Annie's driving, but it does have another meaning. As a very experienced spy, he'd know when he's being tailed. And one common trick to check if you're being tailed is to look in any reflective surface and see who might be a little too interested in your movements from point A to B.

We know as of Season 1 that Arthur and Joan Campbell agreed to bring Annie into her position to help see if Ben could be located. Given the heavy implication in Season 1 that Annie was brought in early because the DPD saw potential in her, finding out that she was nothing more than bait for Ben would have to hit pretty hard.

Henry Wilcox is known to run black ops - he's the freakin' [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Prince of Darkness]], for crying out loud. He's the only person who could avoid Arthur's polygraph test, because he's technically not part of the agency. His son, Jai, knows Ben. He's framed Ben for the leak, so Joan and Arthur are hunting him down. Ben thinks Joan and Arthur have betrayed him. Really, [[BatmanGambit he's pitting them against each other]] [[XanatosGambit as part of his master plan.]]
