Hondo, Deacon, and Tan are in Bangkok and obviously, things don’t go quite as planned when Hondo stumbles upon a heroin operation with his old military buddy, Joe.
With guest star Sean Maguire, the CBS series is starting its season strong with plenty of action and emotions.
During a trip to Bangkok to train alongside Thailand’s premiere S.W.A.T. team, Hondo and his former military buddy Joe stumble upon a wide-ranging heroin operation with ties to Los Angeles and find themselves on the run from a powerful drug kingpin.
This is the second time that a season on S.W.A.T. has begun in a different country and the third overall episode arc that has done that, not to mention that we got an elephant in the background in one scene, which may or may not have been planned.
You never know just what to expect when an episode of a series films in a completely different setting, but I have to say that it’s so nice when it happens every so often.
