Reid says: “If you want to punish me for taking a risk, then I encourage you to do that.” Cramer goes: “Calm down, Agent.” Reid goes: “This is calm, and it’s Doctor.”

He is driving along a fairly forest-y, rural-y road, zooming along, until he experiences that oh too familiar moment of getting stuck behind a work vehicle and having to slow down exponentially.

We meet Detective Forman, who asks that the BAU call him JT. He has set the BAU right on the beach under tents, and apologizes for this set up not being “a cushy arrangement.” Sir, there are 9 dead bodies.

The man gets a text that says, “How’s it going” to which he replies, “Oh. my. God. so much fun” yikes. We see him digging in the dirt, pulling out a skull, and placing it in a bag. Hamlet moment!

She comes home with groceries, opens the kitchen cupboard, and everything is organized. And she PANICS. If I came home and my shelves looked this good- I would be THRILLED. Everything looks so clean and organized.

Now we have Reid in his assessment, and he talks about how the last time he was in that sort of meeting was after his father left. I wanna know how Hotch feels knowing that Prentis is alive while the rest of the team grieve and cry to him.

She rifles through the fridge… past the tinfoil leftovers, past the fruit, past the other dessert options. And selects… the best snack. The only snack, as far as I am concerned- a stalk of raw celery.

Derek shares that he feels a bit betrayed that Emily left, especially after they had just gotten shot at in the last episode by Doyle’s men. But Rossi thinks his anger is more rooted in the fact that Emily crossed the line with Doyle (aka, she slept with a terrorist??). 

That is the most unrealistic thing about this because a seasoned public transportation user would not just bare-fist a stanchion like that. Also, Prentis is sitting in the PRIORITY SEATING FOR PREGNANT, ELDERLY AND DISABLED PEOPLE.

We open to classical piano music and a Walmart-brand Noah Schnapp. The child is playing the piano and teasing those keys. Baby- it’s a montage.

Jane turns to Molly and goes: “I call this a humility check. It shatters those selfish thoughts so you can hear other people’s feelings and needs.”

Now we get another monologue from the unsub, accompanied by a montage of the unsub driving around in his taxi. He complains about the smells of the “guinea pigs” as he drives around.

Meanwhile, Deputy Doug doesn’t understand why Voit wants to talk to him specifically. Prentis is like, well its because you fucked up! She says: “Voit is a profiler and he's been studying YOU!”

Voit says: “When Sydney told me you were in the house, I was expecting David Rossi, the legend, not David Rossi, the ARRP member.” Rossi is like- “Does urine have DNA? Oh wait, I’m so old, I can’t remember.”

Arthur is listening to the police scanner while tying up Ramona and hears the missing person call for her. He immediately calls Elias is like, “wtf bro you gave me damaged goods”.

Doug says “okay because our fates are tied together on this case, I took the liberty of preparing the briefing” and Rossi goes “wow us”. I love a man who makes a presentation! 

He’s meant to be around seventeen or eighteen, but it’s literally Zach Gilford in a long t-shirt and badly gelled hair. Like… the man can act… but he’s forty years old. You can’t erase twenty years by dressing him silly.

There’s this idea about women of a certain age that we’re not relevant anymore sexually. But I have gotten so much attention. My kid doesn’t like it, but fuck him, whatever.

Tyler was kicked out of the military due to his lack of trust and defiance toward authority. He had the skills from the military to infiltrate Sicarius’s network, so he definitely has the skills and insight to help the FBI.

Inside the Mid Century Modern house up in the hills of Seattle, probably only minutes from Escala. Kids Hollie and Harlow are getting ready for school. Harlow seems to be eleven or twelve, older sister Hollie is in her late teens.
