The "Killer of Killers" Returns...
cchase17 April 2008
HOO-RAY!!! Kurtwood Smith, freed from the strait-jacket of THAT '70's SHOW gets to play REALLY nasty characters again, and this time he's reprising his guest shot as FBI agent/moonlighting killer-of-serial-killers Edward Cooper. You remember him, right? Good agent with a really, really bad hobby. And although Alison is still bumping heads with him over his VERY elastic concept of justice being served, they team up again to catch another killer. Well, maybe "catch" is not quite the right word, but they do stop him. The circumstances regarding HOW they do it is what makes for one really interesting episode.

Oh, yeah, and meanwhile Joe's new invention and his efforts to find backers for it, has attracted the attention of a very attractive financier, played by no less than Mrs. John Travolta herself, Kelly Preston. I smell a story arc here, and it might not be a good one for Joe and Alison somewhere down the road...stay tuned.

Anyway, Kurtwood Smith delivers as always, and makes me hope that Agent Cooper will be back in future episodes. Hey, here's an idea! What about him and Arliss Howard's character in the same episode? Or would that be too much?

Agent Cooper delivers TRUE justice
joebondo3 February 2022
The one thing I always disliked about the Allison Dubois character was her delusional thinking that every killer, even if proven beyond a doubt guilty, needs a fair shake like anyone else. There are countless thousands of victims who have been raped & lost their lives to repeat offenders. Repeat offenders are a product of the Allison Dubious (backwards) way of thinking. This thinking should apply to petty crimes done by petty criminals and not rapists & murderers.

In this episode, agent Cooper adheres to the "Dexter" method of thinking to assure no other potential innocent victims lie in the wake of another released violet, sinister perpetrator.

The victims of repeat offenders have blood on the hands of our INJUSTICE SYSTEM as well as people who think like Allison Dubois.

A great episode with a nice twist in the end.
