Yeah it is confusing and in that over in where and how the FBI International team that operates there. And usually the agents that are over in countries don't carry guns or so I thought as that was the premise in the description of the series here.

But no they do carry guns on it there. The international laws kind of confusing in each and every single country that the team encounter on it. As with one reviewer I agree that they have to have a mix of writers with both the Europe and USA links there.

Anyway an American young couple go to adopt a Romanian baby only to get arrested by the PD there over assaulting the social worker as the woman who would had given them the baby has cold feet or maybe something sinister is happening there.

It is a rich parents vs not so wealthy parents like the American couple there. How the former get off with basically a slap on the wrist while the latter nearly got jailed in an unknown country there. So imperfect!

This is one of the dumbest ideas ever by CBS writers. Why in the world would a 19-year-old surrogate betray the biological parents of the baby she is carrying when that was never her idea? Why would a British couple think they could persuade her to give up an American couple's baby let alone want to ruin that couple's life? It is preposterous!

The writers should have just had a young pregnant woman (Romanian or otherwise) who was willing to give up her baby for adoption, which can lead to manipulation, coercion and competition. The writers chose the story they did because they like to place a character in a negative light to add conflict and drama. CBS has done it a lot. I remember a Law & Order episode where a young woman coerced four sets of parents into giving her lots of money as they hoped they would be adopting her baby. That is a lot more realistic than this story.

A wealthy British couple decide to kidnap a baby being born via surrogacy with the help of the woman that owns the surrogacy agency. Why? If they rich enough to do this why not do their own surrogacy in Romania? Or find an adoption agency that would help them. Basically it would have been the same result, they would have had their own kid adopted in another country because they couldn't in Britain. And why would the woman that owns the surrogacy clinic even risk her lucrative business attempting this? I know at the end the team speculated this was the beginning and the end of a black market affair. But with the amount of unwanted children around, why take paid for and wanted children where she would be more likely to be caught? I know one shouldn't engage one's brain with these shows but sometimes these plots just begged to be analyzed.
