Did you know
- TriviaPerry Smith, whom Gideon quotes at the beginning, was one of the convicted murderers who served as the inspiration for Truman Capote's novel "In Cold Blood."
- GoofsWhen Tobias Hankel is typing in a website URL at around 23 minutes, the "browser" is actually an image in Photoshop. Photoshop's toolbar is visible to the left, and the large text indicator line, which extends above and beyond the text field, is a strong give-away.
- Quotes
Dr. Spencer Reid: You all right?
Jason Gideon: What?
Dr. Spencer Reid: You seem unhappy.
Jason Gideon: I am unhappy. I'm tired of people using religion to justify the terrible things they do.

Swoosh, BADAM and Swish!
Now I do not know if it is me this time, but from the intro onwards, in this episode I get annoyed at all the background noises that are supposed to make a scene more scary. Sometimes a huge *BAM!* seems kind of lost though. Then there is the obligatory shadow on the wall and at least two special effect sounds for that. Shadows are louder these days.
The logics in this episode are a bit weird, some pieces do not really fit together, however it is quite entertaining. This might not have been a gem - at all, yet I am hooked and really want to know what is going to happen (this is a two-piece episode).
Altogether this episode seems like a mumbo-jumbo of simple film making techniques for the easily-amused, with a few interesting ideas and a very likable A.J. Cook.
Favorite quote of the episode: "Wh.. Reid! Are you sure we should... Split up?" I love clichés!
