4x06 The Instincts

[innerslytherin]

Mmmm, Spencer. Rowr. I love the way we jump right into going in. Awww. Poor boy. The whole team focused on him. He handles that better than he used to. Interesting, Hotch suggesting Reid's subconscious wants to sit this one out. And I love Reid's "I don't".

Prentiss knows about his mother living in Las Vegas...I wonder if she knows about the paranoid schizophrenia.

Taunting the families. Interesting to combine that with remorse after the fact.

****

Is it just me or does the woman bear a resemblance to JJ?

Morgan and Reid working together. Yum. And Rossi & Prentiss. *grin*

Look at Hotch considering someone else's marriage. *pets him* Poor man, he has to know how things rip apart a relationship. And JJ's kid is a boy. *G* I like the way JJ is bonding with the mother. And I like how she believes in the mom.

Okay, these dreams are weird. And wow, Reid is falling apart. What's going on there?

I love this mother. Her quiet despair is just so painful. What good acting.

And now Morgan and Reid snuggle on the couch. do more bonding. I love their relationship. I like how they can joke around with each other, the way Morgan picks on him, and yet the way they confide in each other, the way they can talk.

****

Random commercial note: OMGWTF *FLAILS* WE JUST GET DONE WITH THE ELECTION ADS AND NOW CHRISTMAS? GRAAAAAAAAAAAR!

****

Man, I feel so bad for these guys. I love Hotch. He's always so compassionate to the victims and their families. I love all these profilers, but Hotch is the one I will always admire most.

Reid knew other boys? LOL And Reid had books and notebooks. W.S. Merwyn, Bob Dylan. Heh. Diana wanted Spencer to memorize them. And now Reid's going back to the dream analysis. "Freud's been discredited but Jung still has his merits." *G* Oh, look, and Reid's giving a little more to Morgan again. And pushes right past Morgan, who is trying to comfort him, hello slashy undertones.

The FBI obviously coached the minister, huh?

Okay, Spencer needs help. Really needs help.

Oh, look, Rossi and Prentiss are Catholic. *G* We knew that about Rossi, of course. Mmm, I love how the two of them work as a team. And how quiet they are, and how in charge Rossi is. Rowr.

Oh, look at Morgan. He's looking out for Reid. I want to snuggle the man. Oh my gosh, he's so freaking wonderful.

It's nice to see the team have a lead not pan out. As much as I love them, I know they can't be right all the time.

****

WOOOO!!!! A female unsub! But dear lord, please don't be Reid's mother. *snerk* Riley's mother. Oh man, and look. Reid has to go to Bennington. *pets him*

And hello, he theme of the episode is "mother's intuition".

Oh, look, Diana convinces Spencer that Riley is a metaphor. Just like she did with Randall Garner. Huh, Diana went off her medication when she was pregnant. Interesting to know she'd been diagnosed before she got pregnant.

Geez, this season's been rough on us childfree-by-choice people. Breastfeeding a five-year-old grosses me out.

****

She quit taking her anti-psychotics, but of course didn't go back on them while she was breastfeeding. Poor woman. But poor kid, too. Wow, that was Hotch driving like that? Yummy. He's hot when he's a little emotionally involved.

Oh, crap, Reid. Emotionally-involved-boy. Please don't screw up. *snuggles him*

She doesn't have the boy, does she?

Oh LOOK! Reid hugging that kid! *melts*

The conversation between Morgan and Reid is so fantastic. Morgan pointing out that Reid saved the day here, congratulating him. And Reid asking if they can stay an extra night, and Hotch agreeing, and asking Morgan if he can find something to do in Vegas. LOL I love Hotch's dry humor.

OMG I LOVE DIANA REID. And look at them. I want to *snuggle them* And wow, Bob Dylan love. Ooh, pretty Reid sleeping. MmmmmRowr. And an intro to next week! *flails* ZOMG DAD!!!! *sigh* Please don't let Reid's dad be the killer. Trust your show, dear. William found the body. He didn't kill the boy.

I love my show. Also? I want to jump Reid's bones. ROWR.

Another lesson in this episode: blonde women are scary. *G* Kidding, really. ^_~

I absolutely missed that. Then again, I was having a massive coughing fit during the funeral scene. :( It could just be out of respect, but it's interesting that no on else in the cap is doing it.

Also, I DO love the way Prentiss and Rossi work together. I just noticed it this episode, but it's lovely.

Not quite as nice as the Reid and Rossi dynamic, but still...

[innerslytherin]

OMG you watch that episode and can talk about Reid and Rossi dynamic when the Morgan/Reid was being SHOVED IN YOUR FACE? *G*

And look, I am going to win you over to Rossi/Prentiss shipping. Just wait.

AHAHA! I didn't mean R/R in THIS episode. I was talking about overall series working relationships. :P

[innerslytherin]

LOL I know.
