Look, you got a little stabbed the other day. That's bound to make anyone a mite ornery.

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

Quester, I've read reads of the episodes that say she was just making them come up with a solid defense, or that she changes her mind over the course of the interrogations. I'm undecided.

Well, I haven't really watched the episodes she was in in their entirety so I don't have a read on her character. It just seemed like the interrogation scenes were red herrings.

Currie Graham is always awesome. And I find him sexy... although I am not sure he is a universal taste.

Oh, I'm with you there, Scrappy. I think he's dead sexy. Have you seen that episode of The Mentalist with him? RAWR.

I've read online theories that Strauss was guiding the team members to ultimately clear Hotch by asking just the right questions of just the right members. For example, she gets Reid to state emphatically that he remembers everything with his eidetic memory, and his recall is impeccable, thus ensuring that his testimony can't be questioned.

I love how Strauss is doing her standard combative interview technique with everyone except Garcia, because she'll remind anyone listening to the recording of the interviews of all the victims Foyet left behind, including the Hotchner family.

Ion had Empty Planet tonight. I think I'll have to move that up to my favorites from S2 list; I'd forgotten how damn good it is. I think the professor with the bomb in her car is one of my favorite one-shot characters on this show, the woman who plays her just nails it.

And of course, the scene with Morgan holding her hand as they dealt with the bomb.

One of my favorite Morgan scenes. It shows his empathy, courage, recklessness and stubornness all at the same time.

Definitely a great Morgan moment, up there with when he (and JJ) walked into the Montana bar full of armed militia bigots and faced them all down in his Morgan-itude, capped by giving the lead bigot his card at the end, then strolling out saying, "Take care, boys." So freakin' cool!!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Rizzolli and Isles: This weeks twist was so obvious, but maybe it is because I am so familiar with the guest actress from NCIS.

and also because there was no reason for Lola to be featured so prominently. I suspected that she was working with (I want to call him Foyet, but I can't remember his name), but I didn't think that she was the missing woman.
