Not one of CM's finest. The idea that Ashley Seaver just 'disappeared' though, which some people seem to have, is incorrect. When Prentiss and Jareau are in the corridor on their own just after Prentiss has been hugging the team, Prentiss asks about Ashley and Jennifer says 'She transferred to Andi Swann's team' to which Emily says 'Good for her'. Andi Swann runs the Domestic Trafficking Taskforce. So OK, Seaver doesn't get a goodbye episode, but she doesn't just disappear.

Anyway, on the surface this all seems very exciting but tbh it's all just window dressing to bring Emily and JJ back and shut down the Doyle storyline. That storyline was always rubbish and I wish they'd just saved the ink and kept JJ and Emily from the get-go. Having an idiot politician cross-questioning and second-guessing the team is just rubbish. Though seeing Reid hand the moron a kicking is nice and bloomin' Strauss shows some heart, so there's that.

So, that's that. Let's just get on with the series.
