Morgan's Reaction To Reid Revealing He's Never Been To New York Is So Funny To Me. Maybe It's That He

morgan's reaction to reid revealing he's never been to new york is so funny to me. maybe it's that he says his first line:

On an airplane, man wearing a grey jacket over a black shirt aims an incredulous look offscreen to his left. The subtitle at the bottom of the image reads: "Reid, it's a one hour flight."

jj speaks:

Sitting on the airplane, a woman a white shirt and black pants smiles and addresses the man sitting to her right, who wears a brown cardigan over a green sweater vest and white shirt. They are holding cards, and more are on the table before them. In the foreground is the back of a dark-haired woman's head. The subtitle at the bottom of the image reads: "Well, if we have some time, I'll show you around."

(two sidenotes: one: jj is very cute here. two: why is she sitting like that)

and then morgan keeps going:

The man wearing a grey jacket over a black shirt, in the same position as before. The subtitle at the bottom of the image reads: "It's a three hour train ride, man."

i think it would be less funny to me if there wasn't a beat between his two lines because it gives the impression that he's just Stuck on this train of thought. if hotch hadn't stopped their silliness to remind them that they're in a crime show would he have kept going. "it's four hours in your gay little car! it's a 24 hour 34 minute bike ride! it's a 112 hour walk! what is wrong with you!"

i do Not like the ending of a real rain im sorry this may be controversial.

i get what they're going for with hotch shooting the unsub. i get the foreshadowing of the past case where hotch talked a man down who was then acquitted and went on to kill again. i get the parallel of the unsub killing people who he feels were unfairly acquitted and then hotch killing him out of implied fear that he'll be acquitted by a sympathetic jury. but if you're going to attempt a parallel like that and have a character make a choice like that you need to commit to it i think? there's not even a conversation about it. i dont think it's ever brought up again, hotch doesn't even say anything.

one scene on the jet, if it was well-written enough, could make me accept the ending even if i dont like it, but no. the episode ends with hotch shooting a man who is surrendering and everyone is apparently fine with it?

(i'd like to note that this is a criticism of the writing, not hotch. i think this is an out-of-character choice without justification beyond "one time i talked a guy down and he got acquitted so this time ill shoot the guy as he surrenders. and then keep my job somehow". it just feels lazy and weird.)

A woman in an orange prison jumpsuit stands in a dimly lit hallway, facing the slightly blurry figure of a man off to the right. The subtitle at the bottom of the image reads: "A doctor and so young. Your mother must be very proud."

this episode breaks me every single time. im too devastated by what i know is coming to be especially coherent but. i dont know. there's something about this specific line that makes me need to lay down. she's so quickly established as an almost unwaveringly kind person. days away from her death and she almost immediately compliments one of the agents sent to interview her. maybe it's something about this line being addressed to reid, who, while loved dearly by his mother, doesn't have the most conventional relationship with her.

(here's this screenshot brightened up because the lighting is Not Great:)
