As obnoxious and insufferable as Jordan was, she absolutely did not deserve that. What a horrible, horrible way to go.

This show is wild!

Also, why did the SWAT team barge into a hostage situation with machine guns blazing? Isn't that extremely reckless?

This episode was bananas. Thank goodness for adorable Junie having her best day ever, because without that, I'm not sure I could have dealt with everything else that was going on.

Jordan's demise was awful, but there was also a certain poetic justice to it. The black humor in this show is as black as it can be.

This. I mean I kind of feel like the writers killed her in such a brutal way to symbolize killing what she represented. A white westerner plundering many cultures by stealing National treasures/artifacts and ideals for her own gain. On top of that having no respect for those whom  she was partnering with. Calling them what she felt they should be called rather than their given name. Even failing to respect the name of the iconic chair George’s father had sculpted. She deliberately called it the wrong name which was very disrespectful. Didn’t believe that had the father sculpted it from the mother’s hind-side. She was self important and dismissive. And thought she was cultured because she stole cultural artifacts and had a fetish for Asian women. So ironic that her billions, her panic room and her Asian girlfriend, all that which she thought kept her safe and above the fray, ultimately couldn’t save her and some would argue indirectly led to her demise.

I'm wondering what that gas was and what it was for? I was expecting knock out gas, but it did nothing...

Eh, it was karmic justice. If she had treated her new wife as a human being and not as a disposable thing, that wouldn't have happened to her.

Also eat the rich. If they are already minced that's going to be easier.

They didn't have enough episodes left for a drawn out hostage negotiation.

I'm guessing it was to create a smoke screen that would confuse and disorient intruders who weren't familiar enough with the layout of the house to know which way to run.

Good point. Okay, I take back what I said. Let the feasting begin!

And didn't clear the premises to find Danny after presumably shooting Paul. They were the Keystone Kops carrying big guns

What I love about the show is the dark humor of it.  As insufferable as all the characters are none of them are truly evil.   Jordon is the definition of rich white privilege but she showed Amy compassion when Amy finally came clean. Getting tripped up by the chair she coveted is  dark irony at its finest.    Isaac has a criminal mentality it is a true criminal mentality which means rewarding your underlings so it hurt him deeply when Danny ratted him out.    
 

I also find it interesting that the series has been showing June as an anxiety ridden kid who had the time of her life in the company of the people who kidnapped her.
