But here's what bugs me -- why the **** am I supposed to like Noor? Or give a single shit about her?
And why am I supposed to dislike Javad? THAT'S HIS ****ING JOB!!!! He's the head of security for the Iranian embassy. What the hell else would you have him doing in that role? Why is he a bad guy in any of this? And why should I sympathize with Noor's plight when, y'know, mandatory military service is part of Iran? Something her brother has always known about and been prepared for? Something that MANY countries have? Get your !@#$ing nose out of his business, Noor.
And if you're gonna be in it, maybe discuss it with him at literally any point of his existence? Would've saved everyone a lot of headache. And the next time you try to blackmail the US Government, someone needs to throw your ass into the deepest of deep dark pits until you have a change of heart.
**** this -- I'm Team Javad. I like that dude. He's just a guy trying to do his job and flirting with the cute girl that works his desk. Why am I supposed to see him as some sinister douchebag? I think it's entirely because he buttons the top button of his collared shirts without wearing a tie. That's a dick move.

Heh. I thought the Noor plotline was pretty interesting. You're 100% right. Javad doesn't necessarily age well, but at that point, you're right.
I viewed this as prety realistic. People suck and do stupid shit.
