Along with Zeljko Ivanek, Robert Knepper is television's go-to creepy guy. Luckily, he wasn't wasted on a run-of-the-mill episode, but an episode deserving of his demeanor. Criminal Minds is probably the most perverted shows on television in terms of what people actually do, and "Reflection of Desire" fully embraces that.
The unsub's relationship with his mother could have been fleshed out much further, but it was still a shocking episode where the sicks acts continued to mount. And as Garcia (or her character) says, referring to darkness, "it's as natural as the air we breathe."
Score: 8.9/10
