This just popped into my inbox...

-----------------

It's about a serial who kills women by drowning them, resuscitating them, and then repeating the steps over and over. The BAU comes onto the case and he begins to escalate - not only that, but he moves outside of his 'comfort zone' to other cities and states.

~)~

Look for:
  • Morgan teasing Elle about a boyfriend not only at the beginning of the ep in the bullpen, but when the pair go on a 'road trip'. In one scene (in Morgan's SUV; Elle's in the driver's seat, Morgan's in the passenger's seat), Elle's cell phone rings and Morgan asks if it's her boyfriend. Elle says 'yes' and then answers the phone: 'Hi, Gideon.' Morgan's facial expression is priceless.
  • Elle sermi-freaking out on Morgan, saying that his desk appears neat, yet she thinks it's a mess in his drawers. She also calls him a slob, based on the condition of his SUV.
  • Garcia telling Hotch that he sucks.
  • Funny quips from Garcia.
  • Gideon getting angry at the unsub's father for withholding information on the unsub's past and childhood.
  • Chilling moments between the unsub and his victims. My favourite
    scene was at the motel where he tries to drown the girl in the pool and a man comes and saves her.
  • JJ popping in and out. She's barely in this ep, but makes her appearences worthwhile.
  • A dramatic and satisfying end.

Juicy, eh?

WOW...thanks so much for posting!!!


SPOILER...











I'm liking all the Morgan/Elle parts! He's teasing her about her boyfriend...hmmm...interesting! Seems like he's jealous or something...

LOL...do you think the person who sent you the spoilers already saw the epsode much earlier due to a different time zone? Or perhaps he/she was an extra! I actually work as an extra and remember that there were extras needed in February/March to shoot the season finale...or some other later episode...hmm...

Anyway, I cannot wait to see this episode!

Very interesting!

GideonsGirlAnanke - April 20, 2006 12:24 AM (GMT)
Ah...if only I lived where I could be an extra!

S/he said that s/he had an "advanced screening", but didn't specify how.

I did make her/him promise to spoil me in the future, though, if s/he has the chance!

~)~

But yes, I'm excited about the boyfriend screw-up... :lol:

Oh where do you live? I live in LA...and so this is THE place for extras/actors/etc...Almost everything is filmed here. I've been on Las Vegas taping recently. We did the same scenes over and over again all day long. It's long hours, though. Usually 16 hour day. I only do it like twice a week. That's all I can take!

But yes, please do share more spoilers once you receive more from that person!

And the boyfriend thing should be hilarious...This is why I love this show. It has so much humour in it. With Garcia's comments. With Morgan making fun of young Dr. Reid...etc...It's just funny...And at the same time, it has lots of drama. Perfect combination, in my book!

Only about two hours left before I see the episode...

GideonsGirlAnanke - April 20, 2006 02:21 AM (GMT)
Not too shabby!

The boyfriend/Gideon thing seemed to be a little more understated than I expected, and Garcia's remarks didn't seem as sharp/witty as I was looking for, but otherwise, rather good.

A nice ending, too. Not quite as sweet as last week, but still good.

Actually, the whole ep has hints of Catch Me if You Can...while the UnSub wasn't as fab as Leo DiCaprio's character, it was still worth watching.

~)~

Next week is a rerun of "Natural Born Killer"...Which sucks, because I was hoping for one of the four eps I haven't seen! (I was going to say five, but I almost forgot that I recorded "Broken Mirror" last night.

~)~

Now if you'll excuse me, I think repeated attempts to sing "Oye Como Va" means I'm primed to write... :lol:

If I could just get a smooth copy of Elli Kokkinou's "Pao, Pao" to finish downloading, I'd really be set!

--------------------

P.S.: I live in Michigan and all the opportunities (mostly modeling) are two hours away in Detroit. *sigh*

you saw the episode already? lucky you?

wait, but the Gideon/boyfriend thing was a joke, right? I mean he is NOT her boyfriend, right? LOL...i'm getting a little worried...

the two of them have really good chemistry together and they ALWAYS seem to be working with each other...maybe the writers gave up on the JJ and Reid thing and are moving on to an Elle and Morgan thing...I personally would love for that to happen :D

GideonsGirlAnanke - April 20, 2006 04:19 AM (GMT)
Don't have a heartattack, Leo...it was just a joke!

And yes...the joys of living in the Eastern Time Zone!

YAY...that's exactly my point! They ALWAYS work together...they are the about the same age, both not married...And they do have a great chemistry. Elle acted like his wife when she told him that his car was dirty and that he was a slub...that was so funny! And why did he keep asking her about her love life? no one else cared if she had a boyfriend or not...I would also love for this pairing to happen..It would be fun!

And you guys can call me Jules. Greenleo is just my user name...it stands for my favorite tv couple of all time, Leo and Greenlee...together it's greenleo, the shipper name for them.

I know this is now considered an older thread, but I didn't want to read though the comments till I saw it... While I enjoyed it, I too was thinking Catch Me If You Can (haven't seen the whole film)... and several other films that use that central storyline. The actor playing the un-sub, does anyone know what else he's done? He seems familiar...



Kyle - April 21, 2006 12:10 AM (GMT)
Definetely a very good episode.. Sort of creepy that a person would DROWN the people.. That has to be the worse death ever.

Anyways, but yeah, I thought it was awesome. Lately, I've been seeing a lot of Elle. :D

I just watched this ep and I loved it. I just love Morgan and Elle together, I'm all inspired to write a nice fluffy fan fic now! :D

I just couldn't stop looking at Reid in this ep..........

I just watched the repeat of this today.

I think I win points for the most frightened someone can be while watching this episode.

To just set the scene let me tell you, our house is on a main road. It was eleven o' clock. The streets were deserted. My dad was asleep in bed while I was watching downstairs. I just got to the bit where he'd tried to drown the girl in the pool and ran off.

Then there is a hammering on the door and a woman screaming to be let in.

:o

Loved loved loved this episode. Really truley fantastic. I would have liked to see the end properly without my dad having to go and talk to the police.

An interesting twist on the usual UnSub format of the show, and one that worked well. The killer was realistic, dramatic, and genuinley scary.

Random thoughts:

Liked all the Elle/Morgan stuff. I ship them with other people, sure, but they are fun to watch.

Garcia. Need I say more?

Loved the final woman (not that I got to see the end - did she live or not?)



(In case you are wondering, the woman was drunk from her way back to the pub, in the end our neighbours called the police.)


Rach112 - August 7, 2006 04:22 PM (GMT)
Yeah, she lived!
