Very Strange

So there is this family that steals valuable artworks, objects, and important people to win some insane game where the loser puts a gun to his head. They have a boy they are holding who could be used as trade bait. They have an original Van Gogh. And now they have Raymond Reddington. These guys get infiltrated by our guys, Liz included, using an alias. Of course chaos ensues. There are numerous near death experiences but we know the day is going to be saved eventually. Sometime the "what if" used by the writers gets a little beyond believability. So, anyway, Red and Liz continue on their merry ways. Finally, our boy Tom has joined the Nazi party in Germany and is getting shaved and tattooed. Interesting. I find him so boring.
Why do the germans sound like .......

It is amazing, but in most tv shows, when the english / americans speak german they sound like a ......
If a german would speak english like that, I guess that about 90 % of all english speakers would not understand a word they are saying .....
I as a native german need the subtitels to get what they are talking about.

Okay, when the bad guys capture Raymond Reddington, Dembe (his African bodyguard) is shown being stabbed (poked with a needle? Impossible to tell, it's very fast) in the neck. And even if he wasn't stabbed, just sedated, can someone tell me why on Earth these ruthless, murderous criminals spared Dembe's life as they captured Red to sell him off to be killed by someone?? That doesn't make any sense! In my opinion, that's a plot hole the size of the Grand Canyon and it was poorly handled. I actually logged on to IMDb to check whether Dembe had been killed in that unclear and absurd scene. Apparently he wasn't. That sucks. It's like in cartoons, when someone gets blown to bits and the next scene they're back on their feet in perfect health. Not realistic at all.
