Is anyone else finding this episode incredibly tragic and disturbing? In the majority of episodes, there is typically an innocent victim who is rescued at the end, but this episode... just isn't like normal Criminal Minds at all. Most episodes usually bring closure either for the victims or for the audience. With so many senseless deaths and with a sympathetic unsub who cannot stop himself, I just don't see how this can have the typical ending. This is just pure tragedy.

It's actually one of the reasons this show is so good. It doesn't give the audience a flat stereotyped bad guy and a flat stereotyped innocent victim.

this. a thousand times this. i know for a fact i wouldn't enjoy the show as much if it always wrapped everything up with a tidy little bow.
