Decker is just so awesome... I wish he had the SOUND OF THUNDER storyline instead of Fulbright. Of course, I wouldn't be okay if Decker died... But I would have loved him and Hannibal working together. Oh yeah, that would have been really ideal for it to be Decker who had to go back to Vietnam with the team. Not sure I would have wanted the same storyline, but still would have loved for Decker and the team to have to work together over in Vietnam for an episode.

His security detail just allowed him to leave with Tawnia? I always find that whole scene rather odd....Tawnia does not seem to really be expressing urgency and I also think if I were the sheik, I would not go with her!

I'm rewinding it to Face at her apartment. I'm sure she was on the seventh floor, not the tenth. Yeah, I think there is inconsistency there....

7 o clock in the morning, not 7 o clock at night. Geez, did I ever get that wrong. Why did the bad guy ask if she was doing late night entertaining then? FACE JUST SAID SEEING AS THEY WERE ON THE SEVENTH FLOOR AND HE LEFT HIS HANDGLIDER AT HOME!!!! I was right. They were on the seventh floor, yet kept saying tenth later. I think the innuendo here is that he had stayed the night with Tawnia.

I just don't think it was so imperative for her to track down the team and tell them that Decker was after them. They already knew, and he's surprised them many times, and they always get away. The writers were trying to make us think she was important to the team, but they really didn't need her to tell them. I guess *she* doesn't know that, though? Or, she's just using it as her "in" to meet up with them... she's a schemer, so I could see her doing that. (Or, trying to make herself seem like they need her.) If anything, she showed she was kind of dumb, leaving her codes in the computer. True, but back then probably no one really considered that that kind of thing could be tracked. Decker is just so awesome... I wish he had the SOUND OF THUNDER storyline instead of Fulbright. Of course, I wouldn't be okay if Decker died... But I would have loved him and Hannibal working together. I wouldn't have wanted him to have that episode/plotline, but I keep saying I want him to be a good guy. I don't know why. I just do. He's just a no-nonsense badass, and I want to be able to like him for that. And I'd love for him to have to work together with them (I'm not sure how that would change the "he's supposed to be catching them" dynamic, though. I suppose he could become a "secretly working with them" character, but I don't think double-crossing the Army like that is in Decker's nature). I seem to recall there was some episode where I was wishing he had to team up with them. Tawnia really wasn't a good replacement for Amy. I miss Amy. Yeah Amy had more brains than Tawnia the character, Tawnia was more suited as a once off face girl type of character didn't she appear once before her actual Tawnia role in the show? Yup. But I still think they intentionally tried to make Tawnia so we wouldn't like her as much, so nobody would want her to be as much a part of the team as Amy was/take so big a role. To me it seems very obvious that they "dialed back" the female-sidekick character to head off another MC-type situation at the pass-- not wanting to make the same mistake twice. This is her real apartment. We never got to see Amy's real apartment. I don't think we are told anything about where/how Amy lives, are we? (Or most of them, really. Murdock is obvious and we see his room several times {and it often looks different}. We know Face moves around and we see a couple of the places. Hannibal and B.A.... no idea.) I like Tawnia's car getting shot up, I know we said it would have been a great running joke for Amy/Tawnia's car to get trashed each episode lol I have one bit where they go on a job and Hannibal asks Face and my OC to bring their cars as well in case they need extra vehicles for some reason... he tells Murdock to drive with her "just in case" and she says apprehensively, "Just in case of what? What might happen while we're in my car??" And that's a tribute to the episode where they wreck Amy's car, lol. (Except my OC's car is a lot nicer and it would be way more of a tragedy if something happened to it...) His security detail just allowed him to leave with Tawnia? After a super chopper just tried to blow him up? I know, right? He needs to fire his security team... someone shows up with a bunch of guys who have automatic weapons and claims *someone else* is after you, and you believe them and go with them without even asking any questions?? 7 o clock in the morning, not 7 o clock at night. Geez, did I ever get that wrong. Why did the bad guy ask if she was doing late night entertaining then? FACE JUST SAID SEEING AS THEY WERE ON THE SEVENTH FLOOR AND HE LEFT HIS HANDGLIDER AT HOME!!!! I was right. They were on the seventh floor, yet kept saying tenth later. I think the innuendo here is that he had stayed the night with Tawnia. That's what I thought, too... Although (it's been a while so I'm relying on my faulty memory here), didn't the guy say that because he discovered she was actually wearing clothes under her bathrobe? If she'd just spent the night with a guy, wouldn't the opposite be the case?

We see a cheap hotel where BA stays in at least one episode. He gets mad at someone putting their feet on the coffee table, if I remember correctly. In my A-TEAM universe, Hannibal lives in an apartment above the laundry....it makes it convenient for him to portray Mr. Lee, too.
