Title: Episode of the week - week #8
Description: Natural born killer
I love this show! - February 25, 2008 12:55 PM (GMT)
I think my favorite parts of this episode were the scenes with Elle and Reid in Garcia's office and Garcia's moving Elle's coffee cup. (and the look Reid gives) :lol: And then later the quote about getting into the files after they are deleted and Elle's comment "we can make bail."
Now I was thinking the Baltimore cop, he makes another appearance in Honor among thieves but did he ever meet Reid? Why did he recognize him? Implied meeting maybe? Just a random thought. And it's the episode that sort of hints that maybe Hotch was abused as a child. Maybe....maybe not.
Anyway, this one was a little bloody. Not my favorite episode but it's still fun to go back and watch the episodes I haven't seen very often and revisit the world of Season one. :)
What did everyone else think?

Personally this was one of my favorites.. I've seen it quite a number of times ( my brother will tell you how many was he groans each time I watch it, Broken Mirror, LDSK, Derailed,Unfinished Buisness or Profiler Profiled... I think he's getting to the point where any season 3 will induce groans.. or at least a not this one again).
I loved Garcia moving Elle's coffee cup and the look on Elle's face when she threw it away after Elle set it down the second time..
Pam- I'm so with you on the we'll make bail comment! very funny.
My theory about Hotch being abused is that if he was it was not by his father but by a stepfather and that if he personally wasn't he might have witnessed it.

This episode made me all kinds of confused.
Where the heck did the unsub come from?! Maybe I just wasn't paying close enough attention, but one second they were talking about the undercover cop, and the next they've got this suspect, and I so did not get the connection there.
I'm not sure what to think about Hotch. I don't really think he's the type to have been abused. He's always the level headed one, the take-charge guy, the voice of reason on the team. I just don't see it happening. But that comment was confusing. Since this is a cop show, we have to take into account that sometimes the characters say stuff just to get to the suspect, but I don't know....he said this at the end, he wasn't trying to get information out of the unsub....see, all kinds of confused. :unsure:
Oh, and the Elle/Garcia/Coffee cup thing, I was actually a little bit uncomfortable watching that scene! I was half expecting a chick fight. :lol: :rolleyes:
Overall, confusion aside, this was not one of my favourite episodes. I don't know what it was about it, but it didn't pull me in like some of the other episodes have. And that's disappointing because this is such an awesome show and I love it so much.
Better luck next week. Oh, wait, Derailed's next week, right? Yay, that's a good one. ;)

I love this episode! Although the infamous Hotch comment irratates the hell outta me, there's so many different things it could ahve been hinting at!!! <_< Bad CM writers, get Jemma all het up (although nice choice for the hetting - Jemma like that! :P :D)
And I love the Garcia 'Coffee-Gate' scene! Freakin' hilarious, i wanted a chick fight! XD Just me? :P
But I was with Garcia on the 'ick' factor - that guy was creepy! Although i loved the scenes between him and Hotch, and him and Gideon - and the way Hotch takes the pen away from Gideon, bless his heart!
I shall have to re-watch this ep, and find a nice screencapping tool to get some caps *runs off to get busy!*

Definitely the best part! Garcia is so protective of her babies...
I liked this episode but it wasn't one of my favourites either. It was definitely darker and more bloody than the previous ones and I didn't really enjoy the plot that much. Hey, this is the first time I haven't said "I love this eppy!"
I remember there was a surge in "Hotch was abused" fics after this one! I really don't think he was but I could be completely wrong ;)
Okay, I thought I had more to say but I'm having a mind blank... :lol:
