Just when I think this series couldn't get any worse...it does. It's not enough to have to sit through the meandering, drawled dialogue or complete lack of chemistry, in this episode we're also treated to an insight on how utterly terrible they are at their job. Assigned to exfiltrate a mysterious financial figure (a lugubrious Ron Pearlman, doing what he does best) they find their safe house compromised and crawling with what one assumes is highly trained assassins armed with submachine guns who, fortunately and in the nature of B-movies, cannot hit the side of a barn. They flee to another convenient hideout that John has seemingly not only purchased but also tastefully furnished and decorated in the few days they've been staking out their mission, and -- having warned Pearlman to stay away from the windows -- sit down to dinner at a table in front of said expansive windows, fully illuminated, before then sitting outside and getting stoned. Good thing these highly trained killers only attack in daylight, eh? It's an astoundingly stupid episode, and the stupidity on display compounds the utter lethargy that swamps the odd action/chase scene.
