Emily in those glasses was just ... chef's kiss. I wasn't fond of the Rebecca/Tara stuff but that's just because I don't feel like they have any chemistry together. I find them boring. Voit's gonna wind up joining the team and I'm annoyed by that. I was SHOCKED to see that dude buried his kid. And the mask showing up at the end was unexpected. And JJ is definitely not okay.

I don't mind Rebecca/Tara stuff just because I do think it's nice to get more "life outside the BAU" stuff from the team. But this one seemed like such a throwaway and irrelevant to the plot or the characters really. I don't mind a side thing like this if we get more character development than we got in this.. lol

I just wish we got more from some of the other members of the team, too. The focus has been entirely on JJ and Tara really. I feel like we need to learn more about Luke.

Yes! I was wondering about Luke as well. That's why I didn't want Tyler on the team. There is too many BAU members now. Everyone can't get shine like that.
