I've been watching TV again. That show, with that guy who doesn't eat or sleep or go potty for a day.
This season has revealed a new dumbness.
Let's say you're bad guy and and your family have been living on enemy soil for 5 years. Your kid now has a local girlfriend.
Why does it make sense to strongly object to the girlfriend?
When your son doesn't tell her to go away, she follows him to the secret warehouse as he delivers a package.
Why do you think asking her questions about the warehouse is NOT going to make things worse?
Why do you think making your son kill her, is not going to make things worse?
Why do you think sending your evil friend to help the boy hide the body and then kill the boy is not going to make things worse?
Why do you think making your wife pick up her son so you can kill him is not going to make things worse?
Ultimately, the failure of the evil plan is going to be, because you had to be an evil jerk, rather than NOT escalating the matter to rile the girlfriend's nosiness, alienate the boy, and trigger the mother bear's instincts.
I think the moral of the story is:
On the day of you big plan coming to fruition, don't pick at the scab of a non-related, inconsequential problem like who your son is dating
By gods, don't start killing people that your team likes or you'll make them betray you.
What do you think? Do bad guys overreact?
