Is the title of this episode Sudworth Place or Sutton Place? The original copy of the script suggests that the episode was to be called Sutton Place, but in the episode, Garcia refers to the home as Sudworth Place. Hmmm. Did anyone else notice how the detective in the episode kind of looked like Scott Miller, Blake's brother? Also, this case was in Boston. You couldn't think to mention my favourite character? I guess that is way too much to ask for. Oh well, the episode was still good.
I love when Criminal Minds takes the court room. It always brings me back to Tabula Rasa (3x19) where Hotch proved that profiling is accurate and effective to a stuck up lawyer. The defendant's lawyer is trying some kind of hypnosis related to this man's psyche? Is this really going to work? Possibly. The jury will convene later, but the lawyer looks confident and goes outside. Well, that smug look on that guy's face makes me know he's guilty. The lawyer heads outside to his car. Oh god, someone is smashing it. He calls 9-1-1, in a panic. YOU IDIOT, don't follow the guy into the dark alley! Now you got shot, and you're being abducted. That'll teach you. Fade to black. You know it's Garcia by the pan with the pretty high heels. Hotch said,"Wheels up in 30"! You know it's going to be a good episode. But hey, we've seen a floor full of glass, remember? Legacy (2x22) had an unsub who staged a scene with a glass floor to make his victims weaker. Oh, well, this one is different. There are two unsubs. They ask the lawyer, whose name is Jack, "Ready to come clean?" I sincerely doubt it. "Even with someone this perfect is bound to have some skeletons in the closet." Yes, Rossi! I absolutely love your sass. Reid spouting facts - my favourite. JJ talking to families again; this is very, very good. Bonding over kids; so sweet. This episode is going great so far.
Jack says, "I know the system isn't very fair, I was just doing my job." That's actually a very nice thing to say. Ugh, they want him to strip? And they are going to film him confessing to something? Creepy. He must have done something very bad. Then, Kate proclaims a statistic about football fans that only someone like Reid would know, only to have Rossi say, "Not you, too?" "Nah, I googled it." Cool, all we have to do is use Google to sound like Reid. Next is Garcia's usual call. "I am made of cream, gimme your coffee? [...] If he is sharing his sugar, I'll let you know." That is an amazing conversation between Morgan and Garcia, chalk full of innuendos that would only make sense if they had feelings for each other. Then, Garcia says, "Winner winner, vegetarian dinner." How cute. Next, we are right back to the action with the unsubs and our dear friend Jack. Oh, you guys threw a photo at him? That seems to be effective. There are four cute boys in it. I wonder what happened to them. "Is he in shock?" "Doesn't matter. He better start talking soon." Well, he can't talk if he goes into shock, you know...Seriously, I am really questioning the intelligence of these unsubs. Poor JJ, and poor wife. I cannot imagine having to deliver that news. This profile is actually quite interesting. This guy's a sicko. Almost makes you feel bad for the unsubs. I have been saying this nearly every episode of this season.
A nice Rossi and Morgan moment is next. Well, that was short lived. Kate joins in on the conversation. Really, Kate? You asked Morgan how he knows about Jack's M.O.? That's very inappropriate. You should trust him. He seems to already trust you for some reason. Yikes, Chad was pushed into his own death trap! A pan to Morgan brings us the next scene. God, Morgan looks heartbroken. We are brought back to the unsubs quickly. Nice going, idiots! You killed Chad; your own partner. Soon after, we are given more of a profile on the unsubs. "One wants revenge, the other wants justice." That is cool; a really great profile. Brian asks Jack, "Do you have a death wish?" Ugh, why is this the question that everybody asks? Jack replies with, "Aw, come on. I knew you were special. To be honest, you were my favourite." Ew, ew, ew. You sound just like Buford when he talked about Morgan. That might have been intentional, who knows. Oh god, Jack brings up examples of what they used to do together. Oh dear god, he took him to see Harry Potter. Don't you DARE bring Harry Potter into this! I really wonder which movie they saw together, they saw. Whatever, next scene, please.
Wait, so did this guy molest them or not? I think he did, but we can't be too sure. Morgan said he never touched them, but in other scenes it is clear that he was a pedophile. This confused me quite a bit. Oh well, in other news, Brian was molested and thus become a molester. As Morgan said, this is very rare. How very icky. Now the two boys are finally running out of the burning building. Oh no, one of them has a gun. Fear not, here comes Morgan to save the day; to tell the story of his abuse. Again. Because aside from his father dying, that's the ono backstory he has. Granted, it's horribly sad, and it also says a lot about who he is, I feel like we should be able to find out different things about him? Anyway, there was a plot twist ending. I liked it throughly. Morgan told Andrew he could get a confession, but it was Brian who needed to confess. "I said you can get a confession, I didn't say it would be one you wanted to hear." That was awesome. Kate and Morgan have a scene on the plane, and Kate tried to redeem herself. She talked to her niece, Meg. That was cute. OH NO, Meg and her friend are possibly falling victim to the Human Trafficking Ring. This is not good.
So, what did you think of The Boys of Sudworth Place? Did you enjoying its profiling and creepy unsubs? Are you excited for Fate next week, with a surprise visitor? (Spoiler alert: it's most likely Rossi's daughter.) Leave a comment down below!
