Season 12, Episode 5
5/10
A rather mediocre episode.

I never understood the problem Garcia had with Alvez... Either I missed something or it was never really explained, except for the end of the previous episode, and even that was vague at best... But the sudden switch in attitude makes little sense.

Alvez is still an unknown quantity for me. Its clear they're trying to fill the Morgan role with another macho guy, but Alvez just doesn't cut it. Morgan was interesting, had a deep back story, but 5 episodes in, we know little about Alvez except some "secret" he wants Prentiss to keep. And even that isn't enough to draw you in... So far, he's just some meathead jock.

Not even 5 minutes into the episode and once again they drop the "The unsub listens to heavy rock/metal music, just so you know he's an unhinged bad guy" They claim that real life profilers helped with these shows, but if that were the case, they wouldn't be using such cliches when pure statistics show them to be erroneous.
