That's how I saw it as well....and then later on he does do what's needed by offing Curtis (much to his own personal terror over it).

That was a lame way to get rid of him. Curtis deserved to go out a hero, not as a cheap plot drama.

Looks like Curtis was shot in the right shoulder.....death was not mentioned.....I believe you are premature.
