'Lethal Weapon' fans not happy with glaring loopholes in episode 'Get the Picture,' slam writers

While 'just in time' has been the motto of 'Lethal Weapon's duos from the past and present, this one scene from 'Get the Picture' just did not sit well with fans.
PUBLISHED NOV 6, 2018

'Lethal Weapon's last episode, 'Get the Picture,' was a lot of things synonymous to this season - it had insane retaliations, crime and a deeper look at Wesley Cole's past. However, some fans seem to think that it lacked a crucial element - good writing.

Most had an issue with a particular scene towards the end of the fifth episode. Murtaugh does save the day, but with a huge loophole in the plot - why would you put someone you value in such jeopardy? They are asking.

If you've watched the show through this season, you will notice that these situations have arisen in the past episodes as well. "If someone was holding something highly valuable and important to me, I probably wouldn't launch a grenade at them," one fan on Reddit said. Well that does sound logical, doesn't it? However, 'Lethal Weapon's plots have been known to be insane and a little crazy where the leads often escape in the nick of time. In this particular episode, however, it is a little less than a nick. If you really think about it, Murtaugh had to know the speed at which the grenade would be traveling after he launched it. Maybe it's years of police work telling him it would work?
