Why are we not surprised that the psychologist Reese goes to for a profile on the Crawler is none other than Harleen Quinzel? She babbles about the "origin moment" being crucial in reconstructing a killer's mind. Reese asks her if that means the first time he killed. "Not at all," she says. "I need to know, to understand, what happened to him that turned him from a normal person into what he is today." She says the Crawler sees himself as heroic, and Reese gets on my nerves by, after identifying the need to consult a psychologist about this, sounding disbelieving at the idea the killer might not see things the same way he does. "He seeks out targets he thinks need to be punished. The question is, punished for what?" Quinzel points out that his victims are in relationships, which she thinks may be key. Really? You think so? You think the common element in all of a serial killer's murders might hold some significance? "You know, you make him sound almost rational," says Reese, when she's done nothing of the sort, but has attempted to identify how a killer might rationalize his actions. Shut up, Reese, if you can't stop sneering at the help you're getting. Quinzel suggests looking for a broken relationship in the Crawler's past: "Someone, sometime, has been very cruel to your killer. You find that, and you find him." He calls her insight into the criminal mind "very impressive," but the look on his face and his hesitation indicate a disdain that's a little out of place, even if Quinzel does go on to explain that she finds evil more interesting than good. You'd think a hopeful crime lord would be a little more careful about careless statements like that.

Over at the police impound lot, Helena and Darkstrike are examining the car for anything the police might have missed. So...the police couldn't find anything, then they impounded the victim's car? Could the writers of this show put down the damn crack pipes for two seconds? Well, Helena's looking, anyway, with some sort of green light thing. Darkstrike's mostly bitching that he can't find anything and he feels ineffectual, so Helena tells him she knows how he feels, and relates the story of her mom getting stabbed in front of her, and how she couldn't do anything about it since her nails were still setting. "It changes you, huh?" says Darkstrike. It changes the way you look at life, changes the way you love people, if you love people..." Helena makes some ridiculous statement to the effect that not many people know what it's like to hide from things that might hurt them. No, only superheroes go through that, Helena. Darkstrike says it's weird that they can deal with by using code names and kicking ass. "It's like we become someone else," he says. Helena opens her mouth to say something -- presumably, "Hey, are you the Crawler?" -- but we cut really quickly...
