Indeed! I'd think that having Murtagh easily defeat all of this, and then troubling him more with the return of the guard (being unwilling to fight them, but having to) would have worked better. It'd certainly be a bit more interesting than Murtagh being found out after heavy emphasis on how that could certainly happen (and if he's supposed to look overconfident, this is also a prime opportunity).
