Because really, this episode would be worth it just for that opening JJ/Emily/Garcia scene. Everything else is gravy.

I KNEW IT! I knew that Penelope subscribed to the Corrupting/Spoiling Rotten school of Aunting. SUCCESS.Rossi in Formal Wear: GUH. GUH. "I spend too much time with you people." Rossi is srsly Rygel from Farscape, w.o the tentacles. Or the farting. (And now my mom wants to borrow my John Douglas Book.)

I was disappointed with the 4 rooms hypothesis. Because that means, with dialogue evidence, that Hotch gets his own room. Morgan/Garcia, Reid/Rossi, Em/JJ, and Hotch. We did the math.

This was seriously a Harpers Island /CM crossover ep. Even if the psycho-somatic stuff was provided beforehand.

Oh Garcia. "NO. No cognitive interviews. Nothing where you treat me like a victim." I adore Kirsten beyond the telling of it.

And of course they have Reid and Hotch interview the Abusive Parents. OF COURSE. "Sit down and SHUT UP."
"You know what social isolation can do to a child."

This was a pretty messed up ep. But I applaud it nonetheless.
