As for the unsub, yeah I figured it out as soon as he introduced himself to Emma. He jut seemed too good to me, and I knew there had to be something wrong. I guess we should be thankful that they didn't introduce him in the first ten minutes eh?!

I hate when they do that! One of the fun parts of watching the show for me is to try and profile the killer on my own with the clues being revealed as the episode progress. So I hate when they reveal the UnSub identity immediately. I can try to ensemble the profile after that, but it's not so fun anymore when there is no addition of the suspense.

And Blake did seem kinda flat before so I'm happy we've got an episode focused on her, but I'd prefer if they just made Blake/[insert the main team member respectively] personal scene over the whole season when we learn little by little about her via her interactions/talks with the team. I get why people say she's kind of just ...there. Because she has been. And we didn't knew much about her, didn't learn over the time about her, and thus couldn't really grow to love her. (And i'm willing to admit that, even though I liked her from the beginning, as she seemed fine and not Mary-Sue-ish as a certain trainee agent from the past...)

Same! This episode was really strong on the profiling, so it was a definite plus for me. tbh, the only thing that freaked me out was #6 talking about his wife. I have the same name as her and it made me just the littlest bit uneasy.
(yeah, i was always willing to give Blake a chance, because Jeanne Tripplehorn is such a fantastic actress and I never felt like she was trying to replace Prentiss or take focus away from the group dynamics, unlike the other person we shan't name ;))
