Oh, that's right, the name is at the top of the page.
If it were me I would use a pseudonym.
It is all so predictable and stupid.
A few low-lights:
When the hit-woman goes to remove the bullet from her abdomen, it is easily found, as if it were just under her skin. And there is no large amount of blood pouring out after the bullet is removed.
When the waitress drives the truck into the ambulance, there is a cell phone in the truck so said hit-woman can watch. The intrepid good guys pick ip the phone, and rather than ending the call, announce they are headed back to the hospital, thus confirming, if it was not already known, that Pride was still at the hospital.
Also, how does our hit-woman, who is on the run, know the route of the ambulance in the first place?
Back at the hospital, why is Pride's name and room number on the whiteboard, given that there was a possibility of the hit-woman going after Pride?
Then there is the short period of time between the hit-woman shooting the two police officers, and knocking out Gregorio, Wade and Devereaux had time to not only move Pride in his bed out of his room, but far enough down the hall that they were not immediately visible.
I am still trying to decide about "The Angel" segments. While it was nice to see more of actress Amy Rutberg, the pieces just felt like padding to stretch out a thin main story.
Side note - when the hit-woman is hit by the car and is laying on the ground, I am pretty sure that is the stunt-woman, up until the point where she picks up the gun and shoots the driver.
What is it about the third series in their respective universes that they have such problems with the writing? NCIS: New Orleans is to NCIS what CSI: Miami was to CSI.
Is it the humidity?
Addendum - it appears that most of those who bother to read these reviews do not like the negative reviews of this episode.
Sorry, but it is because most of the writing for this show is so much better than this episode that I bothered to write this review.
I just hate lazy, by-the-numbers writing, like what was done with the attack on the decoy ambulance, and at the hospital that followed.
Fortunately, so far the rest of the episodes of this season have been much better.
I particularly liked the most recent, "Sheepdog", both for the writing and the the actresses involved.
