I hope they're not actually going there.

I'm hoping Gibbs knows that someone thinks he'll fall for the tough, in-your-face woman and can therefore be manipulated, and is doing some manipulating back. I don't think he's above doing that if he thinks he's dealing with the equivalent of an enemy agent.

The Gibbs I've seen over the years would not overlook a threat just because she's (kind of) pretty.

He also has a long history of falling for the wrong antagonistic woman.

I was remembering an episode where Gibbs and Ziva both agreed that they'd slept with someone to get information from them, and I've been hoping that Gibbs is still using that level of cold-blooded practicality when dealing with this woman.

I like the actress. I hate the character. Eww. Cooties.

Castle is very rewatchable.

I concur. Vampire Weekend was very rewatchable.

Victor Webster on Criminal Minds tonight. Why does he keep playing the beautiful con man/psychopath ?

Also, the Eyebrows have been joined by the Goatee. I am not a fan.

Victor needed to share screen time with Shemar. Unlawful amounts of pretty.

VW's last role wasn't con man/psycho--unless you feel unkindly towards ad execs. Was he psycho in Harper's Island?

That was a remarkably bleh episode of CM. I admit to a pulse-quickening when it was revealed he had a family--I wasn't expecting that. But I find the ones where we track the killer face on from the start among the weaker.

And very little team interaction.

yes, that was unexpected. And we still didn't really understand why the real estate agent made him snap. And in such a personal way. Strangling someone is very intimate and there's usually a lot of emotion behind it. I didn't see what triggered it besides "I'm calling the police". I think that it would have been more believable if he had pushed her, she'd fallen and hit her head, and then he beat her up with an object.

And very little team interaction.

got a little Morgan and Garcia, which always amuses me.

a little Morgan and Garcia

And a good line from Morgan to Reid about being normal, but it mostly felt like Prentiss on her own. I like Prentiss, but I like interaction more.

And what happened to Morgan and Reid for the end of the episode? I feel like they just wandered off.
