And to highlight the important milestone for the popular TV series, a two-part story regarding the UnSub named Sandman will be featured and the BAU team will be hot on his tail to take him down at all cost.
The Sandman is a killer who abducts children by sprinkling sand on their eyes when their parents are asleep. The episode is directed by actor Joe Mantegna, who plays David Rossi in the series.
Reports have it that episode 17 will end in a cliffhanger and that the next episode will be more brutal and amazing. The statement came no less from actor Matthew Gray Gubler as he will be directing episode 18 of “Criminal Minds.”
According to the synopsis of episode 17, the BAU team will head to Wichita in search of an UnSub abducting children while their parents sleep. It shall also be the episode where Derek Morgan tries to find out who was responsible for his abduction and torture during episode 16.
However, Cartermatt suggested that the presence of Derek in episode 17 of “Criminal Minds” Season 11 is no guarantee that he is already out of danger. The show is something where almost anything can happen on a constant basis so fans have to be prepared for what the showrunners would throw at them every time.
