I'm glad some more people came here for this episode. I've become an active/regular fan of the show last year and ever since I've been checking this community for post episode discussion. I joined lj only for the communities and as of now I'm involved only with this one. I hope it won't get shut down...
about the episode. I'm glad people commented on it, because I have a very different opinion on this episode. Don't get me wrong I DID enjoyed it quite a lot, but I was not impressed with it at all. I knew who the unsub was from the beginning (and i hate those kind of episodes), and the twist with the fantasy was not that surprising. Also Hotch as a sniper was kind of out of the blue... were there any hints in previous storylines he's got a background/is that a good shooter? (I might be influenced by Bones, so don't mind me that much). Also as I'm not that big fan of JJ (seems I'm in the minority...) I don't care much for her storylines....
BUT! I AM curious what TPTB has planned for JJ (hopefully no domestic abuse/violence, as it's going to be VERY hard to make me believe Will is a bad guy). I thin it might be connected to the mention of the suicide of the helper - that was what has irked JJ. What does we know about JJ's sister? could there be any connection?
Also, I LOVED Reid walking us through the first crime scene. I love those sequences and this one was done very well. I miss those and I hope the see more of them. Another good point of the episode was JJ/Morgan at the prison. I like their partnership and teamwork. They are definitely efficient, can read each other very well and act accordingly. (btw, some fans are squeeing over them being partnered much - there is nothing wrong with that of course - but i just don't see the romantic tension between JJ/Morgan as it's implied by those fans. I wouldn't mind hear some thoughts on this :) ).
And speaking about romantic stuff. one of the things i love about the show it's that it doesn't focus on ships much. but as I am involuntary shipper (it just happens...) I'm inclined toward Morgan/Garcia. (I love their banter and even more so their very close friendship). While I like how their relationship is portrayed and I DO NOT want them the become suddenly the couple, I've been wondering if there might be going something between those two behind the scenes... Some moments are a little too personal even for them and i'm getting confused... Any opinions, guys?
To sum up, I liked the episode, i'm interested in JJ's story, but I was not hyper about it all after, like i was last week - Imho, that was the best episode this season so far.
