Jack Crawford (Laurence Fishburne, already in hot water from Alana Bloom's (Caroline Dhavernas) scathing report about his conduct with Will, is pulled in conflicting directions. He acknowledges that he may be partially to blame for pushing his star pupil over the edge. To add confusion to an already suspenseful trial, a court bailiff is killed in a Copycat-like manner and those closest to Will start to wonder if they were wrong about him. The outcome of the entire trial hangs in the balance as one last key victim is served up. Also starring Hettienne Park, Aaron Abrams, Scott Thompson and Raul Esparza. TV-14 V

I feel like a broken record saying how much I love this show, so I will instead say I will appreciate the personal shout-out the show gave me. Cause somebody killed somebody in Milford Mill, and who here went to Milford Mill High School? THIS GUY! HANNIBAL IS KILLING FOOLS IN MY HOOD! Awesome.

Holy shit

Both Grimm and Hannibal were preempted by the Big XII basketball tournament on my Time Warner Cable feed. Ugh! :(

I can remember when The A-Team was criticized for too much violence and here we have someone slicing off someone's ear in full display. (Not to mention last week's opening!)

I liked it, not the craziest ep, but it seems like they're setting the stage. It's great watching Will play Hannibal, and it really seems like Hannibal cares for Will in a twisted kind of way.

Another terrific terrific episode. Also, so glad I don't have Time Warner for cable.

loved it, as well. a love letter to fans of the series.

Terrific episode. More psychological and suspenseful than actual crazy.

Seems like Jack is turning around regarding Will's innocence. Glad that Doctor Bloom is still least one supporter of Will.

:jawdrop: That scene with the judge Wow!!! I'm amazed stuff like that gets past NBC standards and practices. They must be giving Fuller and his team a lot of creative leeway.

Really surprised to see Raul Esparza from Law and Order SVU here. He's a series regular on SVU and it's rare for an actor to be a regular on one show and guest star on another show on the same network.

Its funny now that will is no longer claiming innocence (in his defense at least) Jack is starting to question whether or not hes actually guilty.
