Would be different IMO if it was like say 10M$ and they said that they were ready to start paying of the debt by small amounts each month or something.
But as it is presented it seems pretty easy to call the cops right away and tell them the full story.
That's true it would have worked so much better if they were in a tough spot, starting to violate debt covenants, looking for more time to start making payments or what have you. And they don't even have to give the cops a full story and prove out this and that - just call in a trespasser on the property and boom done. The creditor/villain's recourse is to file an arbitration claim or whatever the loan agreement stipulates in case of dispute. He immediately loses and thanks for coming out. Or he can get all violent and now we have something of a plot going on.
I think this is a case of an english major trying to cleverly write a plot around a business law scenario but couldn't be bothered with a modicum of research. I think Noah Hawley phoned this script in. 'We've got top notch acting, directing, cinematography, scoring...I'll just whip up a bit of the same 'ol with the bumbling fools and the menacing bad guys and the smart women and get back to my book/other show/whatever'.
Anyway it's up against reruns of Modern Family and @midnight with Chris Hardwick and local news so I shouldn't complain so much.
