The con game the team played was similar to one used on the TV series "Mission: Impossible", one with Vic Morrow as the one who was played for a sucker. But honestly, DD Craig seemed like a wuss for the most part. How did he rise to the level of DD? And as for Abby with that hair do, she looked like something the cat would be ashamed to drag in. All in all, however, a decent episode even though you knew they were going to run a sting on Khan.

Appalling
akumastar13 October 2022
This episode read like a snuff film. I wanted Khan's lawyers to show up throw the book at the entire force and have every single one fired.
Unrealistic plot that belongs in a comic book. I'd love to have access to this magic money tree that funds planes, actors, sets, sound effects, the lot. I was hoping they would at least show a hint of disapproval from someone higher up, but not so much as a slap on the wrist. Appalling writing, appalling directing, the "twist" was about as subtle as an anvil, Khan should have kept his mouth shut, can't believe I empathised with him! I thought he would be the real underdog and wouldn't stand for the psychological torture. What an amazing episode that would have been! The whole crew realising just how hard they blew it and facing some consequences for a change!
Unfortunately we're stuck with the absolute ungabunga logic of "me good guy you bad guy"
Someone on the writing and directing team needs a serious intervention and possibly therapy.
