    That ending brought tears to my eyes. Especially when Garcia finally started to cry. I get Morgan's line of thinking, but I'm ultimately with Garcia on this one. I don't think I'd have had the guts to go watch the man die, though, even after his admission (that was a great scene with her and Greg talking, by the way). But then again, all us viewers saw it with her, so... Chilling scene, that.
    I loved Reid's concern for and defense of her, too. Especially liked that the show went all the way back to reference Dowd. I'm glad Morgan was there for her at the end, but if I had one wish it'd be that Reid checked in on her, too, given his concern (and more immediate involvement when Garcia shot the man last season). Ah, well. Good episode. Very intense.

    I like it. Like JLH a lot better than I did last week. I didn't get why morgan had such a difficult time understanding why Garcia needed to do what she did though. For a profiler, who seems to know quite a lot about behaviour in criminals, he came across as quite dense when it came to his best friend.

    Yeah, he's known her for years, he knows that she's always the sort who tries to see the good in everything around her. But then again, he did nearly lose two friends to the guy, and he's always the type who's not that sympathetic to those who put his friends in danger, so... Anger and frustration will make it hard for you to think straight sometimes.

    Yup. Loved that Reid got her too. This episode while it was really good, was all kinds of sad though. For once, I even felt bad for the unsub. Loved seeing Kevin again. I was beginning to wonder what happened to him.

    I felt bad for him, too, when he talked about having nobody, and no one calling to check in on him. It almost sounds like he got roped into that whole mess-that town was so screwed up as it was, the chances of someone not getting caught up in the conspiracy were pretty slim. It was obvious he regretted what he'd done.
    Seeing Kevin again was nice, yeah! I liked him helping the team out-I wonder if that means anything about the possibility of him and Garcia getting together again someday.

    Come to think about it. This whole episode was sad. Even the main unsub, made me feel sad. For once I couldn't just say the main unsub was outright evil and undeserving of any sympathy. He lived such an awful life.

    Mmhm. The part where he found his brother was heartbreaking. And his desperation with each new crime he committed, trying to go through all the circles...even if he'd succeeded in going through all of them, it wouldn't have solved anything. He'd still feel horrible. The fact that he skipped the one that involves suicide said a lot right there.
    I like it when the show does allow us a chance to feel some empathy for the unsubs. It makes the issues and moral/ethical/legal dilemmas that the cases bring up that much more powerful and interesting to discuss.

    Haha, aw. Yeah, Garcia knows how to tug at your heartstrings. She's so compassionate and kind and sweet-when she's upset, it's hard not to feel for her.

    Garcia and Morgan's relationship is one of the main reasons I watch CM ! They are wonderful !

    LOL, I do indeed. I love their friendship-I like how honest they can be with each other, even if it's a little blunt at times, and I like that no matter what, at the end of the day, they're always there for each other. Their chemistry is undeniable.
    I hope you enjoy the episode!

    I was kind of surprised Derek wasn't with Garcia in the execution scene. But it was good that he was there for her when she got home. (Really liked the song too) One of the things I like about where the Garcia, Derek, and Reed are right now is that they are such different people ...Actually, I don't think that's it. I noticed in the episode where Derek is teaching Reid to play baseball that traditionally speaking Derek the jock cool kid in high school wouldn't know Garcia and Reid. It's just personality types that don't mix. And I think that was the basis of what Derek was so upset about and what was so nice about his scene with Reid. Derek couldn't understand because her reaction and POV was so far out of the realm for him. And Reid translated. all of which is my rambly way to say the character work tonight was really really good. I even loved the scene with the killer. The actor did a great job.

    Everyone in the office is aware of that friendship and how it works. Reid was obviously aware of how bad the fight was that he stepped in to help Derek understand. My thinking is that he didn't check in with her on screen because he know she needed Derek (that's who she was calling repeatedly) and that they needed the space to heel the rift of the fight. I'm certain he checked in on here. It just wasn't the scene we needed to see.

    Yes! I cheered inwardly when Kevin popped up.

    I think it was a couple of things. 1) I think Derek perceived what Garcia was doing was causing herself more pain. 2) Sometimes you can list the technical reasons a person does something but you can't find a way for it to fit in your own emotional construct. I'm like that with women who remain in abusive relationships. I can tell you what I have learned over the years about the psychological reasons a woman would stay. But I just simply don't understand it. I cannot find a place in my mind where it makes any sense to me.
