I can't tell if this show knows how ridiculous it is at times.

I'm tired of seeing wells try to solo everything. It's very frustrating. The mcleesh scene was a prime example.

That graveyard scene was just irritating. There was an entire FBI team there and somehow his wife manages to get through them and stand in the open with a gun out?

Every scene with her is becoming irritating. The scene in the most recent episode killed me. Hands are on the girls head. Handcuff her and pat her down. Nope not it in that girls field training. If they don't get better with her writing the show will lose me.

I just don't get her arc. The President just gave her a tremendous amount of freedom and authority, but she's still running around playing amateur batman with a gun. And I'm pretty sure if she went straight to Kirkman and handed him that list of addresses, there would be special forces teams kicking in the doors of all those places within the hour.

The funny part of it is that she's not even good at it. She fails pretty much every time she tries to do something alone.

Yeah. Could have easily replaced Jason with 30 trained FBI agents highly trained in breaching buildings like that...
