"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

That's a commonly mispronounced word.

not for someone who actually lives in the DC area.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Is that where Bowie was from? The other one? The funny sounding one?

Which character pronounced it wrong?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

They were talking about Bowie, Maryland, not the knife or guy. I want to say it was Emily.

She's fairly new to the region. I think she moved to Virginia when she joined the BAU.

She's been there for three years. That's plenty of time. I mean, I lived in DC for four years, ten years ago, and I know how to say it!

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

When you live here, you hear that name a lot, it's a major landmark around here. The show made a mistake, I highly doubt that it was supposed to be a deliberate mispronunciation for Emily to show her unfamiliarity with the area.

Just trying to think up possible reasons. The meta is no doubt that it's filmed in LA and who knows where Paget is from.

I watched 100 again (ow) and I still don't see the Strauss turnaround. There's been nothing to indicate she's skilled enough to be artfully playing each member of the team the way some TWOPpers were saying, although she is mostly nice to Garcia.

It's possible that she wanted to leave no room for interpreting her investigation as lax, but given her history with Hotch who would believe she'd go easy on him?

She's still markedly hostile to him during the penultimate interview with Morgan, but all sympathy to his face.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I got whiplash from watching the Strauss about-face. It didn't make much sense. I don't know what we were supposed to think was going on. I'm just glad that it seems like Hotch will not be in trouble for killing Foyet with his bare hands. I wonder what they'll do with Jack; Hotch can't raise him alone unless he leaves the BAU, and I've heard nothing to indicate that Gibson is leaving. Maybe Haley's sister will take guardianship of him. I really didn't think they'd kill off Haley, for that very reason.

Who else thinks Hotch has never slept with anyone but Haley? raises hand Man needs some nookie, bad.

Can someone explain how hiding in a box is helping Daddy work the case, even in a little kid's imagination?

The look of open shock on Morgan's face when Hotch said he stepped down to fuck with Foyet's mind portends some tension between those two, regardless of who leads the team from now on.
