This is the episode that got me off the Reacher train.
First let me say that I loved season 1. Loved it so much that I watched it twice and recommended it to friends. It wasn't perfect but it made up for its imperfection by having a solid story and a compelling and believable main character and secondary characters.
Season 2 is the opposite with huge plot holes an unbelievable storyline. Especially unpleasant are all the cartoon-like villains that offered for fodder. It's like the gang that can't shoot straight. This episode was particularly bad with what appeared like amateurs tasked to do a job.
Also, although Reacher's acolytes make for an attractive cast, they are not as compelling as season 1's acolytes. Their banter is repetitive ("you don't mess with blah blah blah") and boring and theirs jabs at Reacher just tiresome.
I don't know who wrote this second season but it needed a rewrite before it was filmed.
