In this conclusion of a special two-part episode, finding the serial killer becomes critical to the BAU when the team realizes Reid is being held captive and a live feed of him being tortured is shown on the internet. Meanwhile, Reid's troubled childhood is revealed in flashback sequences as he drifts in and out of consciousness.

I am serious. The acting in this episode is some of the best I've ever seen; from Matthew Gray Gubler or anyone else. The plot and the outstanding reactions from the team also contribute to the fact that this is my favorite episode. The name, revelations is certainly appropriate. We get an in-depth, first hand account of Reid's childhood and how he became who he is. It also plants the seeds for one of the darkest subplots in the show to date, Spencer's drug abuse (Which is second only to Gideon seeing his girlfriend's eviscerated body). A thrilling episode to watch.
THey Take on the hardest case hide show
Save Reid from a psycho. WHen I saw this episode i was so scared that Reid would actually die. Being a faithful viewer of CM I thought this was the greatest episode ever. Even if Reid was being beaten and was I pain I still thought it was the best this season. Still having thousands of people watching as Reid is being beaten and also he almost dies (well he does die but is revived)that was just aweful. If I saw something like that on the internet I would think it was fake or I would call my dad into see it and then I would report it. Seeing all this I noticed this episode brought out the teams emotional side. How Morgan slamed the wall not being able to locate Reid's location. Gideon being sad about what he had done causeing Reid's death. Good episode.
AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! BEST EPISODE EVER!!!!! hide show
O. M. G. Thats all i can say. I love this show, so to say I've seen this episode more than any other is really saying something. If you get the chance, watch it with commentary, which is featured on the DVD. It's hilarious, Matthew Gray Gubler is one funny boy. So, there is sooooo much going for this episode. First, the cliffhanger from the previous episode. That created a huge sense of suspense already. Next, the great music. Whoever decided on "Sympathy for the Devil" was a genius. And "Funeral" at the end is PERFECTION. Third, its all about Reid. He's an interesting character thats really lovable. It was beautiful, the way his team reacted to his treatment. They really are a family, Reid being the little brother. The team really rallied around him to save him. The acting by everybody was so much greater than any other previous episode. Especially by James Van Der Beek and Matthew Gray Gubler. James was truly stunning as 3 different people. With any lesser talent, i'm sure the episode wouldn't have been as great. The end of the episode was jaw dropping. I couldn't believe what happened. This is the episode, along with Lucky, that i suggest to my friends. With it, I've gotten 5 people hooked on the show in the past few months. Wonderful episode!
OMFG IS ALL I CAN SAY ABOUT THIS EPISODE!!! hide show
OMFG!! I have not seen an episode that was this effing exciting!!!!!! this just beats every single criminal minds episode EVER!!! i instantly got hooked into the storyline in 'The Big Game' but that last 5 minutes was absolutely edge driven... and revelations DEFINATELY delivered THE BEST episode of all time... I felt so sorry for Reid, i wish he didnt get kidnapped, but when he took the drugs from Tobius' pocket, omg!!! I still cannot get the reaction of all the BAU members faces out of my head when they saw the live webcam feed of reid being tortued. i wish i could give this episode 100/10... i am just in love with criminal minds... this has been and will go down as a CLASSIC episode...
One of them in real danger... hide show
A last episode storyline now continues and Reid is taken and team has to find a way to find him before it is too late...
I most say this episode was just full of good angles and the story they built in last episode gets the full power.
First JJ and she has to deal that Reid was taken and she was not.. and she really does not get how some can not take things as hard as she does..I like it was a great way to focus that Prentiss really does not take it all in.. why?
And then Gideon.. he surely went very bad when they saw Reid killed.. and he felt guilty.. the scene when he was walking around himself.. and Hankel walking around too.. that was great scene.
And mostly this was about Reid. I think it was the first episode when one of them is taken... and in so many times it looks like that it - the start when russian rullet is played on Reid.. when he dies... that was something I did notexpected.. and then saved.. and those flashbacks to his past.. and the end.. he going and taking those narcotics... I think there will be quite a lot to deal later - the emotional aftermath.. and those shots...
