Quotes

Sam Cooper: [briefing his team about a spree killer in Oklahoma] We all know that spree killers won't stop until they're killed or they kill themselves. So it's not a question of if he's gonna strike again, it's a question of when.

User Reviews

Night Hawks

I think you all know me well enough by now to know that I put a certain weight on the outrageous factor. This episode did not have it so I am giving it only an 8. However, it was highly enjoyable in that it was hard to figure out exactly what was going on and made me think. I also enjoy when an episode is all over the place, only to all come together perfectly at the end.

I thought the killers accent was way more southern than mid-west Oklahoma. And this is just one of the many factual inaccuracies that plague this show. However, as I've said in the past, I don't watch this show because it's technically accurate or believable. I watch to be entertained. And, while I was disappointed there was nothing gruesome here to see, I enjoyed the episode nonetheless.
