premiere hotch speculation

[ohshiznaps.livejournal.com]

This was discussed briefly on the episode discussion post, but i felt it needed it's own as it could be a HUGE added pain for our beloved leader.

The reaper, Hotch... was there a rape? it was most definitely insinuated, but i felt it was more of a "wait, WHAT?!" moment that passed to quickly to get  a full read on the situation.

im thinking no. if it had, i feel they would have put in more content to support it. all we really saw was a stab that looked below the belt. and the reaper was still fully in pants through the whole thing. 

unless it's something hotch blocked from his memory...

does anyone remember what the reaper said to him? about stabbing being a substitute for sex?

  if this has been discussed or anything already, feel free to mod it up.

Yes, they already have Morgan's issues, and I frankly don't think they're going to go there with Hotch. Being stabbed nine times, having his home broken into, and having his son taken from him isn't enough? Seriously, the man has enough trauma to be going on with.

And Hotch is all about FAMILY. That's the most important thing in his life. As we've seen throughout the show ... it's that duality (his family life and his work life) that has been tearing him apart. He wants both. And yeah, having two men on the team having to deal with rape issues is a little far fetched.
