He's an American citizen who broke the law.
He's not a supervillain with powers that civilian agencies can't contain. I know they're doing this out of narrative and budgetary convenience and conservation of characters, but how the hell is the Department of Defense responsible for the arrest and disposition of a domestic criminal like Bruno Mannheim? He's not a foreign national, a terrorist, or an alien invader.
You don't out another person without their consent. Second, he should understand the difference between lying and protecting someone else's confidences. First off, a guy who kept an affair secret from his family for years has no moral high ground there. It started out well, but then they ended up doing both, and I didn't care for the artificial conflict of having Kyle get mad at Chrissie for "lying" to him. I was hoping that the followup to Kyle's discovery would lean more toward "Wow, it's awesome that I'm friends with Superman!" than the angsty "How could you all lie to me about this?" route. I mean, it's good that the focus was more on character than spectacle, but then why call so much attention to that building and then not do anything of note with it?Īlso, since when does a powerful sound attack have an effect like an electromagnetic pulse? If Peia's powers had an EM component, it's the first we're hearing about it. It's odd that they put so much focus on that under-construction M-shaped building, showed some girders falling out of the connecting piece, but then didn't have any payoff for it like having the building collapse or Superman prevent it. A pretty moving episode, but I wish they had the budget to show Superman doing more to save people endangered by the quake.
