'''''Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior''''' was
The show started with a [[Backdoor Pilot]] (sans Beth) where the original team of ''[[
It was cancelled after one season in 2011.
{{tropelist}}
* [[Always Murder]]: Sometimes kidnapping, but even those tend to have a murder element.
* [[Anachronic Order]]: In the first episode, Beth is already part of the team. In ''Here is the Fire'', which aired later, it's clear she's just meeting them for the first time.
* [[An Arm and
* [[Asshole Victim]]: A politician is almost murdered by his schizophrenic son because he abandoned both him and his sister because of their mental problems, leaving them to grow up in foster care and poverty while he started a new, normal family.
* [[Batter Up]]: ''Nighthawk''.
Line 21 ⟶ 19:
* [[Bread, Eggs, Milk, Squick]]: The killer in ''Jane'' goes to get a beer out of his fridge, revealing that's also where he keeps the severed heads of his victims.
* [[Chalk Outline]]: ''Jane''.
* [[Character Overlap]]: The character Penelope Garcia is the technical analyst in both this and ''[[
* [[Cliff Hanger]]: The Season One Finale (and as of now [[Screwed
* [[Cold Sniper]]: ''One Shot Kill''.
* [[Courtroom Episode]]: ''The Time Is Now''.
* [[Cryptic Background Reference]]: What Cooper and Mick saw and did in Fallujah that still haunts them.
* [[Cut Short]]: The [[Cliff Hanger]] ending of ''Death by a Thousand Cuts''.
* [[Dead All Along]]: Following tradition of ''[[
* [[Did Not Do the Research]]: In "Jane", while talking to a victim's friend, Gina says they're from the Missing Persons Unit. There is no such unit in the FBI.
* [[Dramatic Pause]]: Coop is a... fan of these.
* [[Face Stealer]]: In ''The Girl in the Blue Mask'', a father is trying to repair his daughter's (not actually) disfigured face by stealing the facial skin of others.
* [[Fair Cop]]: Considering the two female agents are Beau Garrett (Gina) and '''[[
* [[Heel Face Turn]]: {{spoiler|Turns out the serial killer in ''The Time is Now'' is genuinely repentant, and only kept calling for a new trial because she believed it was the only way she could be cleared of the murder of her mother, which was wrongly attributed to her. When she actually is released due to new evidence that was previously suppressed, her first act is to apologize and confess to the daughter of two of her victims, then turn herself in.}}
* [[I Have Your Wife|I Have Your Loved One]]: How the killer in ''Death by a Thousand Cuts'' coerces people into committing murder.
Line 38 ⟶ 36:
* [[Knife Nut]]
* [[Left Hanging]]: Rather cruelly, due to its cancellation.
* [[
* [[Mad Bomber]]: ''Here is the Fire''.
* [[Missing White Woman Syndrome]]: The first episode, where a white girl's abduction receives tons of coverage, while the earlier abductions of three black girls gain minimal attention, and go cold quickly.
Line 57 ⟶ 55:
* [[Ragtag Bunch of Misfits]]: The Red Cell has shades of this: a [[Military Brat]] with father issues, a ''British'' ex-special-forces sniper, an ex-con with a serious [[Berserk Button]] about child molesters, and a woman who has been kicked off multiple anti-terrorism teams for personality conflicts, all led by a rather zen ''Catholic priest'' with a [[Mysterious Past]] and ties to a lot of people. They are based out of the back of a gym (the "[[Fan Nickname|Gym of Justice]]") and are fairly casual about dress code and professional behavior.
* [[Reasonable Authority Figure]]: FBI Director Jack Fickler.
** Which so far contrasts with the [[Criminal Minds
* [[Recurring Extra]]: The gym janitor, who was never given a name, and only spoke once.
* [[Relative Error]]: When she catches Mick talking affectionately over the phone to a girl named "Jenna", Beth assumes it's his girlfriend and promptly heckles him. She later finds out that Jenna is his little sister.
* [[Replacement Goldfish]]: The killer in ''Two of a Kind'' abducted little black girls who reminded him of his daughter, {{spoiler|who he killed in a fit of rage}}.
* [[Retcon]]: The Red Cell team concept was not present in the pilot. Sam and Hotch were the same rank, just leading different teams. This show shows that Sam does not answer to Strauss at all (only answering to the actual director of the FBI, Jack Fickler).
** Presumably, this is in response to cries that they [[Did Not Do the Research]]. One member of the team is an ex-con; another a foreign national. Neither are eligible for membership of the regular FBI.
* [[Sadistic Choice]]: {{spoiler|Kill my accomplice in cold blood or I kill Beth, anyone? And to make it even harder for Cooper, the accomplice is suicidal and begging him to do it, there are no witnesses, and the hostage-taker has always released the hostage unharmed if their loved one kills for them.}}
* [[Screwed
* [[Serial Killer]]
* [[Shout-Out]]: 'The Girl In The Blue Mask' is a CM: SB version of ''[[Eyes Without a Face]]''-
Line 71 ⟶ 69:
* [[Smug Snake]]: The imprisoned killer in ''Lonely Heart''.
* [[Sniper Duel]]: Between Mick and the UnSub in ''One Shot Kill''.
* [[Spin-Off]]: This series is a type 3 spin-off of ''[[
* [[Sympathetic Murderer]]: The unsub of ''Devotion'' who is schizophrenic, {{spoiler|thinks his sister's corpse is alive}} and is trying to get her justice from their dad putting them in foster homes.
** The old man in ''Nighthawk''.
Line 77 ⟶ 75:
* [[Unresolved Sexual Tension]]: Mick and Gina; possibly Sam and Beth.
* [[The Vamp]]: The killer in ''The Time is Now'' would manipulate teenage boys into killing their parents. While it's never explicitly stated she used sex to do so, it's highly probable.
* [[Turn in Your Badge]]: Played with. Fickler makes it seem like he's firing {{spoiler|Prophet}}, but he's actually {{spoiler|taking him off probational status and making him a full agent}}. But the rest of the team doesn't know that, nor does the audience.
* [[Very Loosely Based on a True Story]]: The son of the killer from ''Nighthawk'' was obviously based on Jeffrey Dahmer.
* [[Vitriolic Best Buds]]: Pick any two team members, but especially Mick and Prophet, Mick and Beth, and Beth and Coop.
* [[Window Pain]]: ''Nighthawk''.
* [[You Wouldn't Like Me When I'm Angry]]: The killer in ''Two of a Kind'' {{spoiler|who killed his daughter in a fit of rage}}.
