Closure on the "blown-up boat" hangover from Season 18 ending as Season 19 gets into its stride. Fornell (excellently and sensitively played by Joe Spano) makes some good points about grief, counselling and the like (someone has already posted the dialogue about "orphans, widowers..." in the "Quotes" section for this episode).
Gary Cole's quiet, sarcastic, brooding arrival bodes well for further episodes in this season (and maybe beyond).
Torres begins to open up about what he should have said to Bishop before she vanished. Unfortunately Agent Knight (who has her own problems/demons/history) isn't in the receptive kind of mood, but her "control" issues will no doubt surface at some point.
The mad bomber cum serial killer gets taken out (permanently).
