Where did everybody go?

This is the discussion post for Episode 9x03 - "Final Shot". Watch out for SPOILERS in the comments.

I agree. In some ways it makes it more difficult for the team to deal with because then the killer knows ways of staying hidden and getting away. I enjoy it more when they're trying to figure out the psychology of the UnSub and the relationship between the UnSub and the victim(s), rather than things like, "Hmm, there's human remains in this victim's stomach, why is that?" Gross.

I agree, while I don't mind the gross part, I LOVE the psychology of the UnSub - that's what got me into this show and that's what makes the cases awesome. But I prefer guessing with the team about the killer, so I don't like when we are told about the identity of the UnSub from the very beginning... I prefer gathering the clues and forming a theory and then confronting it with the arrest/ending scene.

Though, there are good episodes explaining why the killer does, what he does, or how he devolve...

I think it's more fun to watch when you're trying to figure out stuff along side the team, rather than be told up front - or know before the team even knows. It keeps the show interactive in a way, it keeps the audience interested.
