Not to mention that other people were killed in the process of saving character A and there ARE NO RAMIFICATIONS. AND people are starting to say things like this show is finally hitting its stride.
WUT? How is *deliberately* killing two other members of your organization, albeit part of a secret branch of it, in order to save character A justified?
I have to say, I am sick of these 'special groups above the law' type scenarios in television as it is. I don't like ruthlessness dressed up as 'I'd do anything for the team.' One of the things that draws me to Team shows is the aspiration to be part of said team, to be good/smart/talented enough to be a member. That's the appeal.
I *want* my heroes to be tested and come out better than me. That's why they are *heroes*.
