At least it was foreshadowed somewhat early on with angry pants dad and his son arguing. I mean, it would have been so much worse if we just had random nearly identical purple alien jump up and go "Wait! I will help you!" And yeah, detecto lad is justifiably ticked. Though now im starting to wonder what his end game plan even was. I mean, he is certain basically everyone in power is either dirty or over ruled by the dirty ones, so even if he did manage to setup a sting, what then? Im guessing he planned to slaughter the ruling members of all the families at once. A bomb blast or something to decapitate the leadership and throw things into so much chaos it would actually be possible to roll up the families from there.
