More of the Same

The President decides to go to Afghanistan, leaving his staff to field all kinds of problems. Seth gets himself in trouble, a drug distribution charge, and the Lyor guy has some really stupid problems. Eccentrics abound and he is the king. And who is that blonde reporter who has access to everything, popping in an out of places that should be secured, confronting people? Have you also noticed that nearly every woman on this show could qualify as a fashion model? Then there's another saccharine bit with the cook in the Afghan compound. Oh well. I expect too much, like some reality.

Why is Agent Wells everywhere?

This episode pushes the limits for me about why Agent Wells is always involved with everything important happening with the US government. Suddenly she is running an investigation in Afghanistan? I understand why the writers want to reuse a good character and strong actress, but at some point it just doesn't make sense anymore to have the same character contributing to so many cases all over the world.

Dumb and dumber

The writing has gone from ridiculous to stupid. I am only watching the rest of the series because I lost a bet.

Oh, and if I hand't mentioned it before...Maggie Q (Hannah) is a horrible actress. Simply can't act.

Trivia
During President Kirkman's visit to the troops in Afghanistan, a couple 48 star American flags can been seen at the camp. The 48 star American flag was used from 1912 -1959

Goofs
President Kirkman's visit to Afghanistan is supposed to be top secret, yet Air Force One is parked for more than a day on the airbase's tarmac without any camouflage and within plain sight of anyone who happens to walk by, two of whom are the leaders that the president is meeting, including the head of a terrorist cell. The press would have been made aware of Air Force One's location almost immediately.

Quotes
Seth Wright: Hey. How's your thing?
Lyor Boone: In process. How's your thing?
Seth Wright: Yeah, in process. Thanks for covering for me.
Lyor Boone: Well, the thing about your thing is it's more serious than my thing. Otherwise, you'd be helping with my thing instead of me helping with your thing.
Seth Wright: Well, that's the thing. We help each other out with our things, right?
Lyor Boone: Yep.
Seth Wright: Do you have any idea what we're actually talking about?
Lyor Boone: Nope.
