I love this show and would give most of the episodes 10 stars. This episode is by far the worst one. Idiot plot from beginning to end. Where to begin?
1. Okay. So Berlin tells the professor that the chief of security is going to be a problem and they're going to have to kill him. The professor doesn't want to kill him. I get that. Why not just toss the chief of security out the front door and get rid of the problem on day one of the heist?
2. The professor has shown he knows how to manipulate the media to gain public support. Another simple solution to the murderer running around the bank. Just call up the cops and say, "We're in the middle of a truce. Your security officer has just tried to murder two people and is loose in the building with automatic weapons. Tell him to surrender and we'll release him. If he continues to attack us, we're going to call up the media and let them know that he tried to smother a woman on a hospital bed who had just awoken from major surgery. A woman who was unarmed and zero threat."
3. I didn't buy Rio being afraid to shoot him in the first place.
4. That gunfight was just insulting. Absolutely unnecessary.
5. So, the madman escapes from the gunfight without being shot and gets into the conveniently large ductwork which just happens to lead to the room where Nairobi is hiding. Uh huh. Give me a breat.
6. And nobody runs out of bullets.
7. And the madman can apparently be everywhere at once.
8. Why does a bank have a panic room in the first place?
9. Why does the governor of the bank of Spain have a security chief with zero people skills, a man who seems to enjoy taunting the guests of the Governor? PR is pretty damned important for a position like the governor's. The way the security chief treated Berlin was just moronic. Berlin was supposed to be an important international banker. Why exactly would you let your security chief throw his weight around like that around guests to your office? Somebody would complain. Hell, I'd complain.
Absolutely insulting. This is a great show. This episode is one hundred percent garbage.
