"Kidnapped" (Spoilers and speculation)

I watched the pilot ep of this last night and really enjoyed it. I liked the victim, the bodyguard, the Dad, the freelance "finder" and his assistant and the FBI agent.
I didn't particularly like the Mom. First of all, why was she talking to her kids in French? If she's actually from France. . .well, okay then. Lots of immigrant mothers do choose to speak to their children in their native language in the privacy of their own homes. However, if she's an American by birth, I think it's weird. Also, when they asked her if the family had any enemies she immediately snapped "What are you implying?" Um. . .lady, I *think* they're probably implying that kidnapping your son was not exactly a gesture of friendship and goodwill and whoever took your kid probably hates your guts! I would think a mother's first priority would be getting her kid back. . .not projecting an image of being a "saint" who has never made an enemy in her life.
Here's my speculation as to how the series will progress. . .all the effort on the part of the freelance finder, the FBI, the father, etc. will ultimately prover futile. That boy's going to rescue *himself* and it's going to somehow be tied-in with his ability to hold his breath for long periods of time.
