Easy peasy.. Monroe dying would only be the first of Nick's friends to
die.  I'm sure they would have taken out the herbal chemist girl too.

Yes, that part was particularly bad. Especially since a few shots into
the tires when they were still not in the thick of the fight would
have insured she didn't get far. I'm sure that's a choice made by the
writers but it reflects badly on the planning abililty of Nick/Hank.

Something sure has to happen out of that meeting. Otherwise I don't
see why she wouldn't just keep sending over more killers. Oh, and I
wasn't clear if this was just the first time she hired someone or was
she also involved in the assassins coming over to kill Nick. If she
wasn't involved in the assassins why did she want to get involved in
killing Nick's friends? At least his Vessen friends.
