Predictable, stupid and dull

This one is about an old friend of Danko's who is a drug dealer, which is eventually discovered by the rookies.

The episode is totally predictable as I knew right from the start how it was going to end and that's exactly what happened. There isn't much action or excitement either as most of the focus is on the drug dealer and his attempts to rip off the buyers and the stupidity by all of them is just overwhelming and I didn't take any of it seriously. To add to the misery there's a ridiculous hostage situation at the end, which was brought on by absolutely mind-boggling stupidity.

Ryker goes on another one of his aggravating and unnecessary rants and yells everything for no reason. This overbearing tyrant is thoroughly dislikable. I absolutely HATE him.

Owens's hair looks hideous as it's all messed up. In the first six episodes of the season it was straight and combed nicely and now it's curly and all over the place, so I don't know what happened but he looks like he just got out of bed. He looks as bad as Gillis used to look, which is pretty frightening in itself.

There's an action scene at the beginning and a brief shootout at the end that are both worth seeing but beyond that everything else is garbage. This is the worst episode of the season so far.
