Hardison, you mean? At least he got to hit back, in more ways than one.

The thing I didn't like was the blowing up the office bit.
True, but aside from the nice shot bit, this way you get to destroy physical evidence and place your opponents in physical jeopardy. That having been said, yeah, that chair could have dropped on someone's head.

Thanks for the redirect ita. I asked myself if I was in the right thread and then sallied onward.
Right! Chair. Innocents.
No matter how careful they were, even if they pulled the fire alarm first. SOMEone on the next floor down is going to get hurt in a blast like that.
And, when did they get in the business of actually blowing people up? Sure. Hardison's awesome warning message was cool, but what if they didn't take him seriously? Blood. Actual blood on thier hands.
Bad job, Show.

Maybe they just didn't care?
And also, if you do the job those guys do, if you don't take it seriously I think that might qualify as "well, all right, but it's your funeral..."

And, let's not forget - much as we love them, they're not good guys. Sophie was scamming the team to get the second David.

Yup. We're reminded they are criminals too. Dangerous to call their bluff when you've just crossed them big time.
As for collateral damage and the lack of--that's probably from the same TV rulebook that says aluminium foil can seamlessly reflect lasers, and that the alarm even works that way. It's a convention.

But see, being criminals does not equal a disregard for life and safety. Just ask my dexh, the cop. We've never seen them be blood-thirsty before, no matter how much Eliot might like the knuckle sandwich. Unless, of course, I missed something based on my fervent preference that my favorite characters be essentially good.
Vic Mackey I can see throwing a self-serving torch. Hardison? Out of character.

Har. At the same time I was thinkng 'what a clever idea', my eyes were rolling harshly to windershins. A lot.
