I did finally get it. I agree it was a decent ending. They got to show a few more snatch and grabs, but this time only the good parts. I really liked how we kept "just missing" some really awesome memory from Mrs Fredrick. Only bad thing was that they stretched way too much in freaking out over the move. Personally, I knew what was up from the first time she said it. Plus in that first flashback, they kind of established that the dominant country on the planet gets to play host, and even if you think the US is declining, no one with any sense thinks any other country has overtaken us as the world super-power.
