"Blind Spot" is a sixth season episode of the television series Law & Order: Criminal Intent.
In the season premiere episode, Detectives Goren and Eames investigate the death of a former ambassador's daughter, who is found brutally murdered in her uptown home. The detectives turn their suspicion to the victim's jealous ex-boyfriend, but when another murder bears eerie similarities to a serial murder case from the past, Goren's reclusive old mentor, Declan Gage, and his daughter, Jo, come in to help the investigation. The veteran detective arrives on the scene with firm ideas about the case, and to warn of a serial killer who may be back on the loose, but it is not long before the finger of suspicion is pointed at him when Eames disappears from her home. Apparently, she had been kidnapped and may be the next target. Eames is seen blindfolded and hanging by her bound hands from a meat hook. After they interrogate Declan, Eames car is found still in the garage with another victim in the trunk. Eames meanwhile escapes, but does not know who her captor is. In the final scene Declan is being interrogated by Captain Ross while Goren and Jo watch and discuss the case. Jo admits how her father treated her like an aide, not a child, and that he did not believe a woman could be a serial killer. In her statements she reveals that she committed the recent murders so she would have something in common with her father again.
