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

He essentially said they could be just partners with nothing personal or she could ask to be re-assigned to another agent.

Ah, so the relationship angle is dead for now. Got it.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

He essentially said they could be just partners with nothing personal or she could ask to be re-assigned to another agent.

Well, except for friendship, which I think is HIGHLY personal, but just friendship.

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

He didn't really say friendship, did he? Maybe I missed it, but we can have a drink after work to celebrate a case ending does not equal friendship to me.

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

Yeah, he was pretty specific about smalltalk.

"I make mistakes, but I am on the side of Good," the Golux said, "by accident and happenchance.” – The 13 Clocks, James Thurber

Well, he was riding high on self-pity at that point. I can see them moving back to friendship pretty quickly.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Well, he was riding high on self-pity at that point. I can see them moving back to friendship pretty quickly.

I was kind of surprised he didn't smack her down a lot harder. I was not at all certain that when she asked "what happens now?" she didn't basically mean "so are we back on then?" From his reaction I'm pretty sure he went there too. So I'd say he was striking out for more reasons than just that.

(Not that I disagree that they'll be back to normal in .25 episodes.)

Promo: Speaking of. Way to undercut the tension. "Will their hormones get the better of them?" I'm sure whatever happens it won't be that, but still not the note I'd end that scene on.

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

I think that he thought that she meant "so does that mean we can get together now?" Which she may have meant, in part.

I just got around to watching this week's CM, and I am really disliking the focus on the unsubs. I don't watch to see their creepy shit, I watch to see smart/hot/interesting FBI agents solve crimes.

I totally want to second what Vortex said - the unsubs don't interest me. The agents figuring out the unsubs does. And I also want some fun interaction between the agents - "He looks so real".

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I used to really like when an unsub ep came up because it was the same chase from a different camera angle, but it has become both really overused, in my opinion, and they've stopped showing the same chase. Now it's different scenes, not just different angles. Do not like.
