we hear, I'm almost convinced this was a hit. The way the guy is so calm. The way he handles the gun and the silencer. The fake NJ ID. Taking a bus to his intended location is more secluded than being in an airport. In an airport he would have to deal with the TSA and all the cameras. The burner phone. The methodical way he just "casually" rode away and disappeared ( except for the street cameras). Using the mask all the time. That is, except for the moment he pulled it down to flirt. The exact timing of knowing when Thompson would be entering the hotel...

But, the motive is what's the most curious to me.
