Besides what you mentioned, which I agree with:
1. Making Rip a son made sense but then where the fuck did that house come from? And then they're sending him in as a kamikaze? Because they can't risk their real son? Hell, sending in Jamie would have been a better plot.
2. The Peck brothers going down so easy, especially after the one was warned and here he is sitting on the toilet?
3. This is in general, did I miss something or why is Beth such a bitch to Jamie?
