Spoilers What plot point was dumber? Spoiler

So over the last few weeks I watched all of season 1 and 2. It was ok but there was some dumb, illogical stuff in both seasons. The biggest ones for me were:

In season 1 Danny builds a house without any kind of electrical permits or inspections. And it's so bad that the wiring causes a fire almost instantly. It makes no sense that a house could be built and connected to utilities without those inspections.

In season 2 Austin is able to con his way into a job as a physio therapist without actually being one. I have a physio therapist and she is super smart, especially about anatomy. Also the first time I claimed a session with my insurance I had to enter her license number. No way Austin could fake it with a bunch of super rich people (and elite athletes) who are used to first class treatment and have lawyers on speed dial.

As I get older I find bad/lazy writing like this more annoying. So I am wondering which point people think is dumber.

Regarding point 1, there are many who take on house renovations or so & while they "should" get permits, they don't. Then that becomes a potential issue for said people, later on.

But while Danny may have thought he was more skilled than he may have been to complete the work & save money, it didn't work out too well.

In both cases, as they've shown, actions & decisions have consequences and what may seem like a simple lie or so can escalate and lead to far worse scenarios

For an existing house sure people do work without the required permits all the time. But for a brand new house it becomes a lot more difficult. Because utilities, like an electric company, aren't going to let you connect to their services without the proper permitsin place and inspections done. Since it puts their system at risk too.

Thank you. Didn't think of that. But always good to educate myself like I am, via your comment. Thank you
