I mean, how else are we gonna know if he's the 'captain' of the Baltimore State Hospital, right?

Call me crazy…but I think she actually cooled down quite a bit from prior seasons, by and large because she's experienced repercussions (both direct and indirect) from her reckless actions. Think back to Eldon Stammets, and how (in a rather effective use of symbolism) she got blood on her from the cop she used to get

Not to mention she doesn't seem to be as cavalier as when she was running around in Season 1. Maybe it's just me, but she seems to have cooled off a bit after having run into Hannibal Lecter (EDIT: As well as when she observed Dr. Abel Gideon yank out a few of Chilton's organs.)

Well, if you can get someone else to foot the bill…why not? (No internships though, so you gotta pay your own way, sad to say).

Still waiting to collect that insurance money to replace it.

Oh, I'm aware of his near-immortality. I was merely asking on behalf of Sweet Caroline, lest I missed something (sort of like the games they played with whether or not Miriam Lass killed him after he was shot).

I like to imagine that the FBI (or the psychiatric hospital in Baltimore, natch) has a betting pool on what will actually kill Dr. Frederick Chilton.

And if you taste it while crawling towards it wearing nothing but boxer briefs and a partial stocking over your head, so much the better!

Including the Captain's Hat, I hope?

He's like a vampire, except it's death-by-eel, instead of death-by-stake.

Just a…(burnt) flesh wound?

Although Will's version was certainly more…explosive than Dolarhyde's attempt. Still though, he's clearly showing improvement in his murder tableau skills. Those online course are really paying off!

There can be two Crawfords!

To me, that was the creme de la creme of this episode. I actually laughed out loud at that point.

Agreed. Freddie here was just the messenger (with Jack helping her frame the image underlining his role as paternalistic puppet master).

Which means that if we never see Fuller's rendition of "Silence," we can always say Chilton got reconstructive facial surgery…which is why he now looks like Anthony Heald, instead of Raul Esparza.

For me, your Number 4 probably has to do with Chilton's expression, as @disqus_M4vpolaGG9:disqus said so eloquently, not to mention the other major scene of facial mutilation involved heavy psychedelic drug use as well as a truly despicable victim.

The critic over at Slant magazine said it best: Chilton may be a self-aggrandizing, #brand-heavy dick, but he is a comparable innocent to everyone around him, who has been touched by evil and twisted into something worse than they initially were.

Wait, Chilton died? I mean, I realize it seems as though he was at death's door while sitting in that bath, but as we all know from TV: They're not dead until we see a body, and even then we can't be completely sure.
