Loved the more core-character focus of this episode, definately want to dig more into their backstories though especially after the Hotchner reveal at the end!

Google Drive Tip: It takes time for Google Drive to process videos. If it says "still processing" or is only allowing you to view at 360p, then you can always come back later or download the video in full

Dropbox Tip: The quality of the video is lower while streaming so I recommend downloading or using google drive if thats an issue

Yeah this is one of the first episodes that let us get to know our fearless leader Hotch a bit better! This show is definitely the type to drip feed our backstories so I'm glad you pay attention lol Over time you'll see everyone on the team kinda has different things that trigger them with different cases and sometimes it takes a while to find out the connection. To answer you're question on if Gideon has prior history with anyone on the team - Yes! It's something that is easily forgotten, but in the first episode Gideon was being evaluated for a RETURN to the team. Gideon has been working with Hotch and Morgan for years (longer with Hotch obviously since Morgan is younger). I could be wrong, but I think the order of time on the team for our main crew is Gideon, then Hotch, then Morgan, then Reid. Then Elle joins sometime between episode 1 & 2. Garcia and JJ obviously work adjacent to the team, but I don't think we know exactly when they joined the FBI. Morgan and Garcia have one of the BEST relationship dynamics on this show. The way Derek is with women is a little cliche and telling of the time, but he definitely means well.

Hotch is actually above Gideon as the head of the team. Sometimes it can feel like Gideon’s in charge because he has technically been in the BAU for longer, but he’s not. Gideon knows and worked with everyone on the team minus Elle who only just joined. He was temporarily off duty for only a short period of time after that bomber case.

Thank you so much for this as you have just altered my entire view of the team 😂 there's been lil elements I haven't understood properly because I had assumed Gideon was new to the team. Like it kept feeling like he had been there for years and years, but I fully locked in that he was new for some reason so things felt weird team-dynamics wise 😭

Harry Allen

Ohhhh ngl I did NOT realise Hotch was leader for even a second. I think Hotch, Gideon and Morgan all feel very even in terms of team dynamics that I didn't really consider anyone being a leader, but Gideon would definitely be who I would have assumed if I had to. Thanks for the info!

I keep hearing about this show so definitely adding it to the poll for after we finish Adolescence this week!
