It's not a rough day until a serial killer tries to get you.

This is the discussion post for Episode 7x14 - "Closing Time". Watch out for SPOILERS in the comments.

Oops. 7x14 is called "Closing Time" not "Snake Eyes" but on that note, I am SO excited for this episode!

Is this where we're also allowed to be sad because Paget's leaving?

[identity profile] tryxkittie.livejournal.com 2012-02-16 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
huh, she's leaving??? didn't she just dramatically come back?

You never have sex in these kinds of shows, kids.

[identity profile] tryxkittie.livejournal.com 2012-02-16 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
LOL SHE'S BACK

[identity profile] diemme.livejournal.com 2012-02-16 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
Oh Hotch, that was lame that you fell for that.

AW I like Beth, they're so cute!

"For what though..." ♥ I love Rossi.

[identity profile] runriggers.livejournal.com 2012-02-16 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
Gotta love the Rossi/Hotch moment .... Giggle

At least this time Paget is making the decision and not the network

[identity profile] gsyh.livejournal.com 2012-02-16 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
On one hand, I like how happy Hotch looks, on the other hand, Beth is eating up time I rather see Hotch with baby Jack.

Plus, Too Soon, different people move on at different times, but I don't think Hotch would do it so fast.

...and you guys you guys, have you heard about the creepy thing that happened in Oshawa, Canada?

A barn burned down, and then they discovered that someone built a DUNGEON, with a white bench, chains hanging from the ceiling, and the door was padlocked from the outside. Looks like we've got a sadistic unsub's hiding place for the victim (wasn't there a shorter term for this?)

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/story/2012/02/14/toronto-pickering-confinement-room-arrest.html

Sometimes I wonder if Canada only seem to have less serial killers because we have more woods to dump bodies in.

I personally don't think it's too soon - Hayley died over two years ago plus they were divorced for 2 years prior to that. And it's only a date...

Garcia calling Reid 187 is funny, it is for his IQ points but that is also the police code for a homicide!

[identity profile] lights.livejournal.com 2012-02-16 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
"No one can hear you" in such a sing-songy voice is like 200 levels beyond creepy.

[identity profile] djan31.livejournal.com 2012-02-17 08:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Creepy sing-song voice always kills me.
See: Moriarty in BBC's Sherlock. Gives me the worst creeps every, I love it.

The unsubs son is named Hunter, that is the name of Matthew Gray Gubler's five month old nephew.

Ugh, stupid woman, if you're going to cheat at least make sure you don't get knocked up. The poor kid.

JJ-The Un-sub Slayer?

[identity profile] lights.livejournal.com 2012-02-16 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
I may or may not have just shouted, "Fuck him up, JJ!" :x

[identity profile] diemme.livejournal.com 2012-02-16 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
JJ that's not in the rule book.

[identity profile] tryxkittie.livejournal.com 2012-02-16 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
yay JJ :D

also yay Reid and Morgan paying attention to JJ!

also boo Serial Killer Love Interest for Hotch

[identity profile] diemme.livejournal.com 2012-02-16 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
I don't hate that Hotch has a love life. I hate that it's so boring.

[identity profile] lady-ami.livejournal.com 2012-02-16 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
I don't like it cause she comes off as creepy....

Awesome JJ!

[identity profile] gmth.livejournal.com 2012-02-16 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, so I LOVED that JJ kicked some ass in this one. That? Was EPIC.

I also loved the Hotch/Beth stuff because it was mostly adorable (although really, Hotch? Falling for the fake leg cramp thing?) and it was nice to see Hotch smiling and joking with Morgan again. And the scene with Hotch and Rossi in the elevator was SO VERY CUTE.

Other than that, though, wow. I can't remember another episode where I was so completely underwhelmed by the writing, editing, and acting. God, the acting was HORRIBLE in this ep. Every single person who was supposed to be crying was terrible at faking it. I don't think any of them even actually had tears in their eyes. The guy playing the unsub was especially awful. There were even parts when the main cast looked like they were just phoning it in.

Also, what the heck was UP with the pink lipstick on the guy working in the gym?? I was so distracted by that I could barely pay attention to the dialogue.

Thumbs down overall for me on this one, despite the amazingness that was JJ.

[identity profile] diemme.livejournal.com 2012-02-16 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
We haven't had a really creepy and terrifying unsub for a long time. There were some in earlier seasons that had me double checking the house before I went to bed.

Maybe it's just his lips? One of my favourite footballers has a really pink mouth and sometimes looks like a 13 year old attacked him with bubblegum lipgloss.

My day was okay then.

Could be worse - you could be prying a bear off your foot.

Late to the party 'cause I had to wait till I got home from work to watch....

Unsub gave me the creeps until I realized that Hunter was his kid and not his underage boyfriend.

I like that Hotch has a girlfriend. I like seeing Hotch happy. I like seeing him actually SMILE for a change. They could have made a better choice for an actress, though. This one is not very exciting. I am, though, wondering what kind of event he took her to, because it was Valentine's Day and I'd think everything in the city would have been booked up already.

[identity profile] abstract-helix.livejournal.com 2012-02-16 08:28 am (UTC)(link)
I thought sort of the same thing, but I thought Hunter was his underage rent boy who was using the money to get through college. Ended up being less creepy than I thought.

I loved how Reid was being all super worried about JJ at the end. So Reid. "I'm not trying to tell you how to do your job, but..."

SO CUTE!!!!
