it always amazes me when the “bad guy” is using an AR type weapon and shoots up everything in sight except their intended victim…

point in case: Diaz destroyed the entire 5th floor of the hotel, but stops shooting when Torres comes up behind him - and Torres, with his hand gun, manages to put a bullet right between his eyes!
it’s as if Diaz was a deer caught in the headlights and stopped shooting long enough for Torres to take aim and kill him - wtf?!

that scene (and many like it) are totally unbelievable- and almost laughable…
don’t get me wrong, there is nothing laughable about AR weapons - just the way writers use them in movies & tv…

overall, I was not impressed with this episode…

It was alright. I did not dislike it but certainly enjoyed other episodes more.

I also did not like when McGee and Torres were driving and the car got right up next to them and started shooting, especially knowing someone was after Torres.

Torres and Maria reminded me of Tony and Jeanne.

also, another thing that I seriously dislike:

ooooooooo, Torres is coming in late on Mondays! 😱
please, STOP writing these adults as if they are 14 year olds! 😡
instead of all that childish guessing, just ask the guy!!
if he wants you to know, he’ll tell you - or he’ll tell you it’s none of your freakin’ business…

btw, the writers for NCIS: Hawaii must be using the same playbook, because they’re writing their characters the same way - behaving like a bunch of teenagers when it comes to relationships…

May have been a screw-up by someone as DMcC remains in the opening credits for the show.

I didn't think of Tony and Jeanne, though I was never fond of that arc anyway. The character that did come to mind was Dr. Brad Pitt from SWAK because of Phil Collins.

One thing that was at least interesting was Torres, even when prompted, never told Maria not to shoot him.

I don't know weapons by sight, but if that was an AR, then it was typical Hollywood hype as AR does NOT stand for assault rifle and I don't think any of the AR series are fully automatic without substantial modification.

you’re right, Hari….

I didn’t know exactly what to call the gun Diaz was using, so I just called it an “AR weapon”….

I went back and rewatched the scene, and tho’ it was automatic, it definitely was not a rifle…
but whatever it was, it was nasty!

Oh, and I initially forgot - Virginia near DC was definitely established as where Diaz operates, and they move Maria to Baltimore for witness protection; the closest possible major city to where her enemies are? I suppose they needed her close for the sake of the plot, but it really makes witsec look incredibly incompetent.

oh wow, that didn’t even register with me, Hari!
yes, close for the sake of the plot, but I guess it’s still a plot-hole you can drive a truck through… 😕

I did not like the Tony Jeanne arc either .... I did forget about the Brad Pitt in SWAK!
