With the new team members learning the ropes of the MCRT, a high school reunion becomes a crime scene; and the students' pasts come to the fore.
Tropes:
- Important Haircut: In a sense, the Squad Room gets its first redesign in 14 years to accommodate 5 team members.
- Noodle Incident: Palmer offhandedly mentions spending a night in Jail, but refuses to divulge any more information on the topic.
- Obfuscating Disability: The killer pretended to be near-sighted and of hard hearing. When confronting her, Gibbs points out she has perfect sight and hearing.
- Shout-Out: Bishop and McGee reference Keyzer Soze for what the murderer did to them. Torres and Quinn, not being film buffs don't get the reference.
- And, of course, the whole episode is one big shout-out to The Breakfast Club.
