100 things I learned from Erased


1. CIA agents' daughters are shocked and upset when they find out about their parent's job, yet take pleasure in "playing Sherlock Holmes" themselves by concocting and organizing a fake apartment viewing, but then will be upset again and run away.

2. A lifetime CIA agent will helplessly defer to his what 16 year old daughter's negotiating skills, which consist in waving around his money to a stranger.

3. Because CIA agents can't find a place to sleep without the help of their 16 year old daughter, they would be completely helpless.

4. There is always a busload of other people seeking shelter right when CIA agents look for a place to sleep.

5. Evil bad guys take CIA agent's daughter hostage in exchange for handover of incriminating evidence against them, but will release her before receiving said evidence.

6. Criminals kill people and take little girls hostage only to obtain incriminating evidence as paper print-out, but don't worry about the original electronic files.

7. CIA agents can determine cause of death 100x faster than coroners - by merely unzipping some body bags.

8. If you enter a big company, tell the front desk lady you want to meet someone she has no record of, then grab her computer display and act in a menacing way until she has to call security, they won't call the cops, you won't even be kicked out of the building, but instead you get to speak the big company's CEO (nevermind an appointment).

9. CIA agents' daughter won't be afraid to hear over the P/A that one of her deceased father's enemies will board her flight.

10. 16 year olds instantly sense if their fathers have had an affair with s/o just by looking at them for 2 seconds and without being sidetracked in the least by the shoot-out taking place.

11. CIA agents can fight 100 bad guys at once, but are completely lost when it comes to controlling their daughters

12. CIA black ops killers are surprised that humans tend to die when unable to breathe.

13. Questions about your dad can't wait until after the men with guns stopped chasing you.

14. From another IMDB member here: "I burst out laughing and had to rewind and pause it. Above the Pipe is stone there wasn't another level for him to have came down from. So he must have crawled along the pipe that was no more than 5 feet above the Woman's head. There was 2 other guys also looking for Ben, unless their sunglasses were because they're actually Blind there's no reason why trained CIA operatives couldn't have spotted Ben."

15. CIA agent (who visibly has just survived a bombing, but won't arouse any suspicion at an airport with blood all over him, etc.) can proceed to a gate
- without a ticket
- as a stand-bye passenger
- assuming the name of a person he has just killed
- for boarding a flight to the US where he already was persona non grata even PRIOR TO killing half of Brussels (which BTW doesn't have any consequences)
