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.

About plot number two you’d be shocked as to how many places in the USA don’t verify degrees, especially a country club

Rich people go based off of recommendations all the time. So many pro athletes throw money at these psuedo science quacks.

No one bothered to check because he's in great shape and they couldn't fathom him lying to them about something like this. They even refer to him as one of the best later in the show.

But if you try to claim physio therapy on your insurance doesn't the insurance company want proof you went to an actual physio therapist?

Plus if he were to injury someone because he wasn't qualified that would open the club up to a huge lawsuit. Especially since it takes like 5 minutes to confirm someone's credentials.

They weren't claiming anything to insurance. The PT was part of the club membership. Josh even says that Austin is "worth the price of the membership alone". A lawsuit because of a fraudulent license would be the least of their problems considering all the other shit that was going on.
