Bearcatjb, in your review you asked if the Vic Situation was the same as Ray. No, it wasn't. You missed the point in those episodes. When Ray realized the mistake he made and it cost the boys life, he admitted his faults. He admitted he lied to everyone, including the investigating officer. When Vic made a mistake, he was letting Ray take the fall for his own actions. Even though it was a fact he did not know the hostage was in the room, he could have admitted what he done but he didn't. That breaks the trust the members of the team have to have for each other, and in future operations, would they be able to rely on him? Mistakes happen and you own them, to not do so is not okay. Both the boy and the doctor are a tragic loss, none is worth more than the other....

The Vic Situation following from last Week's episode

Didn't a season or two back, Ray actually make a similar mistake as Vic? He lied to Jason and the rest of the team, telling them that his shoulder was healed when it wasn't?
Then in the heat of battle, due to this injury, he mis-threw a grenade, accidentally killing an innocent little boy, a non-combatant. Then the whole Team and hierarchy, all the way to the politicians in Washington covered it up, and just paid off the parents.
Unlike Vic, Ray didn't get the whole team against him, nor was he fired from his job (and now he is to become a Warrant officer).
I guess the life of an adult C.I. (therefore a combatant of a sort) is worth more than that of an innocent little Arab boy who was just proudly trying on a suit.

Warning: Spoilers
With a lot of gaps...
So, the four leave the bar, miraculously jump in cars full with gear and guns, (we are supposed to believe the cars waited in front of the bar?), then follow a car, kill the driver, pull the hostage out and drop him somewhere, jump in another car (miraculously available there), back at he bar in no time...For this, a plane full of tier one operators has crossed the big pond?
