comment on episode Smile

Okay, I'm not sure how this works, but since I don't want to get blacklisted, this is going to contain spoilers for the Law and Order CI episode Smile. I liked it overall. I was a little confused as to who was responsible for poisoning the mouthwash, but that was all. As far as Eames goes, I read somewhere that someone thinks she's been mean lately, and I have to agree. Especially at the end. She hasn't been backing Bobby up, and I've seen no reason for her not to. Sorry to all you who like Eames. Now, as for the bad guy, I think her name was Leslie, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, she reminded me of that lady, I think her name is Ellie, or Ella, from the fourth season. I forget the name of the episode, but she was the one that was obsessed with a radio personality. Anyway, I saw similarities between the two in that both were manipulative, and their facial expressions looked alike. Also, their final confrontation with Bobby were similar. That's what I saw at least.
