Stupidity: Lyla does not like the idea of Mickey fighting and initially does not want him to agree to the fight. Lyla eventually tells him "okay", but he must stop when she tells him to stop. This may give her a reason to go to Dubai, UAE with him, but she is about 8 months pregnant. An international flight has some risks plus she would be far away from her OB-GYN doctor if there were a complication. She should have had enough sense to avoid international flights/traveling so close to her due date.
Stupidity: The location of the small hole near the bottom of the wood-trimmed wall where Everette passed Sharyn a note and pencil would have taken much more time and effort to accomplish compared to merely penetrating the wall a little higher (where there would not have been wood trimming/baseboard on both sides). (00:10:00)
Stupidity: Instead of breaking into Gordo's house, covering all the furniture in one room with sheets/thin blankets, and waiting for Gordo to return home in order to kill him via a "dramatic re-enactment" (in an adjacent room which was not shown to the audience), Bill could have taken Gordo anywhere to avoid getting caught or calling the police on himself. Had Bill taken Gordo to his already-"wrapped" motel room, he had enough injuries after the fight to claim self-defense against an intruder. (01:43:20)
Stupidity: Gunner [Director and Co-Writer Brock Harris] was given a puppy ("Barnaby") by the nurse (?) who told him he was sorry his "[VA] benefits didn't go through." Gunner could have merely refused to take the puppy but, instead, drove away with it - and later threw it out his truck's window while he was driving. (00:24:42 - 00:25:55)
Stupidity: Colette was holding the metal ladle close to the bottom of its long handle and near the top of the hot pot of stew she was serving, and yelled, "Ah." due to her hand getting too hot. She had a towel wrapped around the handle of the pot, but it was that hand that got too hot/burned (not the hand that was holding the metal ladle close to the top of the steaming hot pot of stew). (00:04:48)
Stupidity: Jon and his sister drove some distance to Bolton to find Janet, but Jon couldn't remember the name of the mini-mart where Janet works. Jon's sister said, "Maybe we should visit every market in Bolton", to which Jon replied she was a genius and "that's what we'll do." Instead of finding a telephone directory and making calls (first starting with Janet Brown!), they drove within a 10-mile radius, stopping at every store (not just mini-marts), but still could not locate Janet. (01:19:55)
Stupidity: It was announced on the radio "to stay inside your homes and to only leave in a state of absolute emergency." Then the house shook from an earthquake. May's mom (Gran) called and said, "I'm not sure you should come right now... the roads aren't safe" and "it's not safe to be driving around out there, especially with the kids." May, who told her mom she had the trip planned, finished packing and said, "Kids, we're leaving." Before driving very far, a "monster" was near her car. (00:01:33 - 00:03:47)
Stupidity: Two oil rig workers were looking at two young ladies in bikinis who were sunning themselves on a boat/yacht. One oil rig worker said, "That's where we should be right now. With them, enjoying the sun, instead of baking in it." Both men had double layers on - a jacket or sweater over a jersey or T-shirt - and one man was wearing a tossel cap. Even if it gets cold on the rigs at night, they did not need to be dressed in warm attire during the sunny daylight hours. (00:10:35)
Stupidity: Billy gave Skylar (a stranger at the diner who did a "dine and dash", not paying $12 for her food) a ride. She came across as suspicious, angry and "street smart." Billy nevertheless put his envelope containing $500 cash between the driver's and front passenger's seat where Skylar could see - and take - it. When they arrived at the Kite Skating site, Billy got out of his Jeep without even thinking about the money. (Skylar gave the money back, but it could have been kept). (00:19:19 - 00:20:35)
Stupidity: While awaiting their flight home, Nancy told Teri, "Think I miscalculated the tea. I'm not gonna last three-and-a-half hours [on the non-stop flight with no restroom facility]." Nancy then went into the gift shop where Stuart Couch introduced himself, asked if he could get her a drink, and bought her a bottle of beer. Nancy drank at least some of the beer on screen, even though she was already concerned about drinking tea before her flight. (00:59:28 - 01:00:30)
