I understand that network television action shows are expensive to make and there obviously needs to be episodes that aren't as climatic, but this episode lacks attention to detail that distracts from the little but also coincidental plot advancements. My first complaint, though admittedly may be a bit too precise, is that in the episode they cut the connection from the outside world with an axe basically cutting all wireless access capabilities. Using that previously mentioned method they figure out the hackers are in the building and track them to the main server room. This is entirely understandable because that's where the data they're pursuing would be stored. After the agents manage to get to one of the hackers though, he escapes... but also maintains control over the building wirelessly. Since they cut the connection to any wireless capabilities this should be impossible... basically after figuring this out it cut the immersion that I had with the episode. Also the people that got trapped together were so obviously coincidental, in my opinion this episode is lazy. I am generally a fan of the idea of this show, I am consistently invested in the plot line because I want to know the answers to the questions the show creates. I don't blame the show for this honestly, I realize networks are really strict on episode counts and often don't fund enough to create the episodes they demand. This episode was the worst one I've watched so far of the show, I hope the quality improves as I continue.
