Crime drama writers, say it with me, "Every scene must make sense to the viewers." It is not difficult. Before the final commercial break, Kostov is in the crosshairs of not one, not two, but three FBI Agents, including Forrester, who knows opioid gas will be pumped into the theater's vents very soon. Though Kostov had a hostage, it is not even close to an impossible shot. The writers/director delay the shot way too long to create drama and make the shot easier. I don't believe it. Forrester had to make a decision as soon as Kostov took the hostage and he didn't. Plus, not even an overzealous police officer would gas a theater when all the bad guys are out of the way except the leader, who has a terminal illness, and three FBI Agents are aiming rifles at him.

Really???

So far, the scripts have been exceptional, more than compensating for the relative blandness of the cast. This was a taut, well-written version of an oft-used terrorists with hostages scenario, complete with antagonists on both sides of the law.
So why did they have to cheapen the whole thing with the team's heroic dog (one of the more charismatic regulars) clinging to life due to unrelated, and completely unnecessary, circumstances? Cheesy move, people.

Jaeger Had a Bigger Role

Warning: Spoilers
Really she does not have much to do but at least she really is the one and only one that can outtalk the team as they have to stop robbers over in a concert hall.
Demand millions or that they will shoot the innocent people there. The Fly Team really butt heads with the lead officer there as Jaeger has to use her diplomatic skills to de-escalate before it goes from worse.
As the dog is fighting for his life as Scott is very worried.

Once again albanians being demonized without even bothering to do basic research on them. Such a lazzy amarcian trope.
A) albanians don't speak Slavic. Scenes in which a albanian nationalist supposedly uses "da' and speaks slavic is ridicules like come on. Carrying on pathetic strio types which is all the more dispcable when the writer claims to want to stand up to those kind of discrimination. Liek come on if your goina invent a bad guys atlest bother to get the language and motivations correct.
B) albanians don't have slavic accents.
C) "oligarchs" don't really exist in Albania not in the same way they do in slavic countries. "lions" as thier called. Do have some depreoranted economic power, and thier is ovlzy politcal currption in the country.. but, protests and democracy are alive and well comparably.
D) lol no one is stopping Albania from going to kosova or albana, theirs no "Albanian refugees" their are ovlzy land which is in serba and NM that is albanans live and wish they were apart of the albanian countires.
C) the ANA operates in kosova and northern masadoina and serba And was removed from terror list in 2015.
C) the've never been known to take hostages.

Full of Tired Tropes.

The writers need to learn about the EU and former USSR states. Bulgaria is a member of the EU, not the USSR. The idea that countries would use gas on citizens wouldn't happen.
The writers are keen to ensure Police in Europe are just carbon copies of USSR state police and is absolutely ridiculous.
Then again, the writers wouldn't get their Americans good, everybody else bad narrative.
The writers clearly believe that American morality is better than everything else another tired trope.
Seriously, retire the tropes because the basis of the storyline was actually good.

I am Bulgarian and live in Sofia. You did no effort to present the capital in any way. You used one Bulgarian actor, you didn't even bother to get the actors learn one sentence in Bulgarian, you just slapped stickers on the uniforms of the officers with our flag. The train station.....that was a piece of art , no where to be found in Bulgaria. Do your homework better.
Considering the fact that the whole series is based in Europe, you could at least make the effort to research the countries that the action is taking place in.
You obviously rely on the American viewership and hope they are not familiar with Eastern Europe.
Well let me spring something on you - almost 20% of the population of the US comes from eastern europe.
