zxy556575 November 24, 2016 Share November 24, 2016 The prison scenes were stressful to watch so I was okay with Swagger's unrealistic breakout. What I did roll my eyes at was the FBI easily finding paper credit card statements, browsing several years' worth in a few minutes to identify one annual charge, then somehow immediately connecting that to a former platoonmate's mother. Bob Lee's wife is kickass. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/50953-s01e02-exfil/#findComment-2774952

Netfoot November 25, 2016 Share November 25, 2016 Bob Lee is 46 in the book, 36 (Wahlberg) in the movie, and... how old in this series? Because he looks like about 16. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/50953-s01e02-exfil/#findComment-2775806

Expand I wouldn't say bigger they definitely set up a fall guy. And it was so complete you could see why the normal cops and agents already closed the case. Except for that one last question. He doesn't miss and nobody seems to think that the Ukrainian President was in fact the actual target except one rogue agent and the Russian shot caller in Federal lock up Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/50953-s01e02-exfil/#findComment-2778277
JasmineFlower November 26, 2016 Share November 26, 2016 Thought it was an improvement on the pilot episode and convinced me to stick with it, something the pilot definitely didn't accomplish. Offered something that the movie didn't and really solidifies the thought that it should have been a 2-hour premiere, think the final scene with him saying he was going to do what he did best, he was going to hunt, would have been a good way to end the premiere. The prison breakout was very clean, but I figure whatever on that front especially since his getaway was greatly aided by the corrupt guard already setting the stage to cover his actions and providing an escape route. I'm warming up to Memphis, though I'm unclear on why she's not more suspicious of of Isaac if she's done any version of a background check on Bob Lee. It's gotta be easy to find that they served together. I am enjoying the wife quite a bit (a heck of lot better than I liked her on The Flash).
