The preview for the upcoming episode, titled 'The Bond,' of season 11 of Criminal Minds was recently revealed and at the heart of it lies a case that will creep fans out.

Showrunner 'Absolutely Wants' Jane Lynch Back In Season 11

The clip reveals that a mother and son will be the main criminals, in a relationship rather evocative of Psycho and the more contemporary Bates Motel, which explains the titled of the episode as well. At one point the mother is seen telling her son, "I will love you no matter what." That is implied as meaning, even if he maims and kills people. In fact as the clip progresses it seems like he has his mother's blessings for the crimes he commits.

The clip also features a glimpse of Detective Tash (Aisha Tyler) as she tries ot help solve the case.

In other exciting news related to the crime procedural, it was recently revealed that Danny Glover will be playing the part of Derek Morgan's (Shemar Moore) father on the show. TVLine revealed that Glover will guest star as Derek's dad in an episode, titled Derek. Showrunner Erica Messer also weighed in on this starry addition for the episode. "It's an interesting role that he plays," Messer said. "The reason Derek needs to call on this protector in this moment and work through some things is really beautifully written by Breen Frazier, and directed by [cast member] Thomas Gibson."

The episode will air on January 27 on CBS.
