Started off well, I enjoyed the two-sided, multilingual storytelling even if the Arab characters were a bit one dimensional and the flashbacks somewhat cheesy. However from about the midpoint onwards things slowly stopped making sense. Particularly bad was the storyline with the wife, who by that point the terrorist knew was fleeing and that the Americans were looking specifically for her, and yet he only sends one guy after her (who somehow survives a targeted drone strike with only some facial scars) and doesn't take any precautions until the last second when he very conveniently finds out she's been taken by the US army.
Also the ebola hostages thing was ridiculous and so predictable from the moment he gave them the vitamins, and the CIA already knew about it when they found the hostages, how the hell did they not immediately suspect it?
Finally there was this completely useless C-plot with the drone operator, which came to nothing? And Ryan's girlfriend being clumsily squeezed into the plot twice, in completely different roles. That was just silly.
