Putting a loved one in danger (and killing him or her off) on a procedural drama is a common (and easy) move, and it's a good thing that Criminal Minds chose not to go that route with Kristy Simmons in "Ex Parte."Not only would her death have happened in a similar way as another team member's significant other's, but this episode also showed why her and Matt's relationship is one that deserves to be highlighted (not in a tragic way) and showed that she's not a damsel in distress and is instead a character we should see more of in the future. She's already been in significant danger once. Let's not do it again.
