The plot is weak and the leads are even weaker. Thoroughly unconvincing opening. But each scene is even worse. For example, how did he get bailed out of jail - he buddy called the White House, sure, but how did they even get news that he was in jail in the first place? And the scene with the doctor and later, the DEA letting him go, what? The only thing I liked was his confusion over the place names. That seemed like the first thing that was realistic. I liked the scenery too. But let's here it for some outrageous product placement. While she "googles" using Bing which just happens to be the show's sponsor, the camera moves artificially to focus on the Bing logo. Sigh.
