It would’ve been nice to have the date portion of this storyline play out in a more positive direction for him. Which is a shame, ‘cause I think that could’ve made for an interesting angle to work with, too, especially given that Reid already had some heavy duty personal issues weighing on his mind. Sadly, that theory didn’t pan out, either. Once it was revealed that this episode’s case would be part of an “elaborate ruse”, I’d personally hoped that this woman would turn out to be an undercover agent of some sort pretending to be an unsub, as a means of helping the BAU catch the hit man gang along the way. So I wasn’t on board with that particular theory. I would think he’d suspect ahead of time if someone he was dating had some shady and questionable aspects to them. Thing is, though, Reid’s a profiler, and a pretty sharp one at that. Initially, some fans wondered, and feared, that this date of Reid’s might be a woman who seemed to him to be innocent, only for her to reveal, to his surprise, that she was actually an unsub. When the details of this episode were first announced, it stirred up quite a large amount of buzz and speculation. And who’s at the center of it all as we kick things off? None other than Spencer Reid. Now that we enter 2016, it’s clear that there’s no rest for the weary, as the second half of the season starts off with a dangerous dinner date, a bomb threat, and a general sense of unease and uncertainty. As the first half of the season came to a close, the stakes were raised even higher with Hotch’s shocking revelation that there had been a major break in the team’s investigation of the case.
They chose to focus their attention on this group at their own peril, leading to Garcia being targeted and even going so far as to force her into protective custody. The eleventh season started with a bang, with the team learning of a dangerous group of hit men. The latter half of 2015 was quite a dramatic one for the BAU.
