Great season finale but the nukes

Have different yields. One destroys half of a major city and the first destroyed an area the size of a football field. Hmmmmm. Something fishy there but anyway. Good suspense and surprises. Great battle with Eichorst/Master. Better than the first season one with that guy wearing a Ghoulie mask. Death of Kelly and Zack cements himself as the biggest child prick of all time.............for the third year in a row.

Yeah, it's a real head-scratcher why a bomb 2-3 stories underground wouldn't do as much damage as one in the Statue of Liberty...

This is a THREADED message board. Please reply to the proper post!

The first was very deep underground, not just a few stories. It was also under the bay.

Each bomb had a different sized-suitcase. The first one was in a much smaller suitcase, which explains why it had a smaller yield.

Ok that makes a lot of sense.

It did not destroy half of city , just the Liberty Island .

No , the second bomb destroy the Statute of Liberty , and the shock wave hit Manhattan island like a Tornado and Earthquake , the glass window of most skyscraper were broken and shatter .
But most of the city were intact .

note to self: if I'm in the street in manhattan when it gets nuked, make sure to quickly run inside a doorway to avoid the island-wide hurricane of glass guillotine shards flying down from the buildings
