oh the present scene... *tears in eyes* I was soooo melting. there are a few episodes that I love, and that one's definitely in it. The Dr Doogie episode: I love how Bobby fights to prevent him from getting the death penalty.

there was an episode in the fourth season (the one with the silver spoon thief) in which Alex explains to the suspect's wife that her husband doesn't love her, that he only loves his burglaries, that he's obsessed by it and there's no room for anything else in his life. She says that the husband is a lot like her partner (aka Bobby himself), and I liked the parallel or any reference they make to the fact that Bobby could have gone either way - profiler or serial killer. me likey *g*
