I totally buy Herriman bowing out and surrendering. He's an old fuddy duddy and someone who's stuck in the old ways of doing things. Herriman is also a neat freak and very structured, if one TINY thing goes out of order, it throws him totally off balance.
Unlike Bloo and the others, Herriman doesn't respond well to pressure and he usually breaks down when bad things happen. Like in "Camp keep a good Mac down" and "World Wide Wabbit", and of course "Crime after crime". Face it, he's no pillar of strength.
Frankie also did state she had a problem with this. You could see it on her face during the whole musical number, and she did say she doubted this during the song itself. But again realistically, this proves the whole point of how good these villains really were.
How often does Foster's run into people like these? Dylan and Berry were more like social pests or nusiances, they weren't down right rotten like these two. Little Lincoln is smart enough to think things out, and Moose did what he was IMAGINED to do.
Frankie can only do so much, and she did, there's no one in Foster's who's strong enough to beat out someone like Moose. And with everyone sold out to their jobs and left overs included just Frankie, Mac, and Herriman, it's no surprise they couldn't do a whole lot.
