The hitman carried out the hit so he (and/or Martin) can use it to blackmail Olivia. God, Olivia is stupid.
I was hoping the cops would be intelligent, like in Panic Room, and realize the obvious hostage situation. They probably'd still get wiped out by Tony's Gang, but at least they wouldn't be as completely useless as they're dipicted on every show that isn't actually about cops.
This ep was largely boring. Olivia is stupid. Yawn. White House security is a sieve. Yawn. Jonas goes boom. Yawn. Jack is sick. Yawn. Renee is hot. Niiiice.
I am disappointed. Freckles needs to stop being hot and start kicking ass...wait...no...she needs to continue being hot, but add in some ass-kicking. Too much talky. Too little shooty.
