HeвЂ™s admitting he needs help, which is usually (but not always) where therapy begins.В Will admits to having a вЂњhallucinationвЂќ of Hobbs in a grave. Will returns to Hannibal, handing back the clearance letter.

One of the grave bodies also grabs WillвЂ™s arm, still alive. As he imagines this though, he continues to be haunted by Hobbs. And Will does his metronome trick, imagining the scene from the beginning, again in the shoes of the killer. At the periphery, Freddie Lounds covertly questions a cop. Nine bodies, all buried alive and kept alive with IV fluids, to feed the mushrooms. This is presumably in line with the history of Will from the books, where he was a homicide detective in New Orleans prior to going to grad school for forensic science.Д«ack at the grave garden, Will examines the scene with Jack. Will reveals that he was stabbed when he was a cop. Beverly Katz joins him, critiquing his stance and his need to practice. Meanwhile, Will is back at the shooting range. Those in classic psychoanalytic practices would not use this technique, because it challenges the вЂњblank slateвЂќ of the therapist.Дeep in a wood in Maryland, three boys hike and find a dead body, in fact a whole garden of dead bodies and mushrooms. This can be a therapeutic strategy to get a patient out of a defensive position, which Will definitely was in. In their dynamic, Hannibal asks a question and Will pushes back without answering. Hannibal states he too is obligated to her. Hannibal alludes to Will feeling obligated to Abigail (HobbвЂ™s daughter). Getting on with it.В And the banter begins. Hannibal immediately вЂњrubber stampsвЂќ Will, for the purpose of moving on to therapy. A better twist might be mandated regular counseling or therapy while in the field. In the clinical and forensic worlds, evaluations are usually for the purpose of assessment and diagnosis, rather than treatment. He proposed he go for a psych evaluation. Of note, Jack wasnвЂ™t proposing that Will go in for therapy. Will clarifies that itвЂ™s mandated, and attempts to dismiss it by stating вЂњTherapy doesnвЂ™t work on me.

Will alludes that there is a copycat killer already, opening up the question as to who is it?В Alana and Jack talk with Will after class, letting him know heвЂ™s free to return to the field, but that he needs to have a psych eval done, with Hannibal or Alana. Though at this early stage it would at most be Acute Stress Disorder. If we follow the textbook, a traumatic experience is a single scary event with threat of death or bodily harm, or witnessed threat to someone else. This is a classic symptom of PTSD, aka Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. And yet he is still haunted by the experience of shooting Hobbs, to the point of having apparent intrusive memories. Will stands in his classroom teaching his students.

We meet FREDDIE LOUNDS, an online tabloid reporter. But someone else was there in that attic. вЂњHobbs killed alone.вЂќ As usual, Will is very certain. Jack maintains that his daughter, Abigail, could be an accomplice in the prior murders. He awakens to entering a crime scene with Jack, the attic of Hobbs, filled with mounted antlers. IвЂ™d much prefer such originality over another murder mystery.We open on bullet shells hitting the ground. The second episode didnвЂ™t have the sustained knife-edge eeriness of the pilot, but it had its fair share of disturbing imagery, like the aforementioned mushroom morgue, or the recurring flashes of a ghoulish Garret Hobbes. The particulars of the narrative are unclear at times, but the show is more interested in dwelling into the psyche of Will Graham. Hannibal, refreshingly, isnвЂ™t focused on the details. After all, we already know the answer to the biggest mystery вЂ“ the true nature of Hannibal Lecter. An impudent young crime-blogger is getting information from the FBI, but the show isnвЂ™t interested in another вЂњwhoвЂ™s the moleвЂќ plotline (though, admittedly, the too-obvious reveal of his identity was a clunky moment). The show doesnвЂ™t linger on the specifics of the investigation. A murdererвЂ™s grotesque garden is found, corpses sprouting with grey, misshapen fungi, and heвЂ™s found within minutes.

The show couldвЂ™ve easily been a serial killer procedural instead it has no interest in solving mysteries. The above quote tells you a lot about the kind of show Hannibal is trying to be, and the kind of show it isnвЂ™t.
