Meh.
I think it's a bit odd that there's a completely pointless story about an insane terrorist veteran.
It contributes nothing to the plot. IF you eliminated the whole story, only put in the 1 episode it actually tied in with, nothing is lost and I"m less bored.
The whole story with lewis came off as low class bashing of veterans.
ACtually, ALL vets are portrayed badly. They're all broken, evil, or crazy. The one guy who SEEMS to have his shit together is later exposed as morally irredeemable. The one who seems like a good person all through out is, of course, physically maimed.
It distracted from the show, which wasn't as good as it should have been. Bernthal is awesome though. His performance creates the illusion the show was better than it actually was.
Bottom line: This was an 8 episode story stretched to 13 with too many irrelevant side plots.
