Line 33:
Frank puts some bullets in a pan. They eventually cook off. On hearing gunshots, the bad guys go into full spraying mode and disintegrate his house. So, uh... what was the original plan? If someone shoots, kill off everyone including the guys on our side? Why even give them guns then?
* The original plan was to kill Frank quietly in his sleep with a syringe of poison that would presumably make it look like natural causes, such as a heart attack. The first guys in were probably told "Do ''not'' just go firing off your guns, we want this as quiet as possible." They were probably not told that if guns went off, the team outside would consider the mission partially blown anyway and just start pumping a lead storm into the house.
** Remember that immediately after Frank takes out the entry team, we hear the outside team calling them on their radio and asking them to check in - which they obviously can't do because they're dead. So the instant the inside team fails to answer for long enough that the the outside team ''realizes'' they're dead, they're going to vaporize the entire house anyway. Hence Frank immediately setting up those decoy noisemakers to draw their fire while he hides in the basement.
