S13.E04: Killer App

[Shades of Scarlet]

Oof.  Truly one of the worst CM eps I've ever seen.  

First, there's no such thing as "DHS field offices."  There are ICE field offices (though none in Palo Alto or Silicon Valley), but the Homeland Security Investigation agents assigned to those field offices don't work murder scenes. 

The dialogue, poorly split as others noted, was atrocious.  

Loved the hospital hitman.  Naturally all police officers standing a post just walk off mutely when someone they've never seen before ambles up and announces they're being relieved.  Then our ace assassin doesn't have a silencer, nor does he even close the door before dramatically aiming at the blonde, all military-style.  BTW, the blonde had already spilled everything and it would be easily verified through a massive FBI investigation of "Peakstone," so the hit made zero sense.  

It took the team until 0:21 to figure out it was a drone.  

The CSI guy playing the Peakstone CEO was a complete caricature.  And written letters to departing gamers documenting how many people they illegally hurt and killed?  Sure.  

Ludicrous.  Offensively so.
