Criminal Minds (2005–…): Season 1, Episode 10 - The Popular Kids - full transcript

(PANTING)

-How much farther?
-What?

-Are we almost done?
-You want to stop?

No.

ADAM: Let's rest awhile.

CHERISH: I promised I wouldn't
slow you down.

You go ahead. I'll catch up.

I can wait.

Adam, please. It's your workout.

Go. I'll meet you at the Point.

(BOTH PANTING)



-You're out of shape, cheerleader.
-Oh, yeah?

Let's see you do three backflips
and land in the splits.

-The Point?
-The Point.

(PANTING)

(TWIG SNAPPING)

(BIRD FLUTTERING)

(ROCK TUMBLING)

(BIRD SQUAWKING)

(STRANGE SCREAM)

(GASPS)

Hello?

Somebody there?

Adam!

If you're trying to scare me,
I'm going to kill you.



(TWIG SNAPS)

(PANTING)

(GASPS)

Adam?

Adam! Adam!

Adam. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Oh, my God, Adam.

Please wake up, Adam. Baby, please.

Baby, please! Adam. God.

(FOOTSTEPS FALLING)

No!

Victim's the Lloyd boy, isn't it?
The quarterback?

Adam.

I just saw his parents yesterday.
They're heading up to Nantucket.

Listen, get me their number up there,
will you?

Sheriff Bridges!
There's something here.

-What is it?
-You're going to want to see this, sir.

Looks like the head is busted open.

Just like Adam Lloyd.

You want me to get
the crime scene folks down here?

Yeah.

Wait, hold on!

We're going to need a lot more
than the crime scene folks.

Easy there, tough guy.
Have some coffee with your sugar.

I need something to wake me up.

-Late night?
-Very.

My man.

Not that kind of late night.

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

Okay, so tell me, what does keep
young Dr Reid awake at night?

Wait, let me guess.
Memorising some obscure textbook?

No, no, no. Working on cold fusion.

No, I got it, I got, I got it.

Watching Star Trek
and laughing at the physics mistakes.

Actually, there aren't that many
scientific errors in Star Trek.

Especially considering
how long ago it was made.

There are certain improbabilities,
but not that many outright errors.

Right.

Hey, Morgan?

Do you ever have dreams?

-I'm sorry?
-I guess

nightmares would be
a more accurate description.

Is that what's keeping you up?

I used to get them occasionally, but
lately it's like I have them every night.

-What are they about?
-This. What we do.

Do you have nightmares?

Reid, I'm not sure if I'm the right person
for you to talk to about this.

-Why not?
-It's just, uh...

-Did you ask Gideon about it?
-No.

You should.

ELLE: Hey. Hotch wants everyone
in the Round Table room.

-Something up with you two?
-No.

McAllister. Western slope of
the Massanutten Mountain in Virginia.

Two bodies discovered in the woods,

both with apparent
blunt trauma to the head.

-Skeletons?
-JJ: One of them.

The second victim
was just killed this morning.

How do we know there's a connection?

Found about 75 feet apart
with nearly identical head wounds.

-Where's the rest of the case file?
-HOTCH: There isn't one.

The sheriffs are on the scene
waiting for us.

JJ: The location's only a half-hour away
by plane.

What's the rush?

Well, there was evidence on the scene
that could cause a bit of public uproar.

Satanic cult.

GIDEON: Sir Peter Ustinov said,
"Unfortunately,

"a superabundance of dreams
is paid for

"by a growing potential
for nightmares."

JJ, we need to obviously keep this out
of the press for as long as possible.

I'll do what I can.

Why is that so important?

There was a nationwide scare
in the 1980s

involving Satanic
ritual killings and abuse.

The "Satanic Panic," it was called.

It began after the publication of a book

about repressed memories
being recovered through hypnotherapy.

Memories of growing up
with devil worshippers

who used children
in their rituals and ceremonies.

Most of the claims were later found
to be false or just impossible.

Still, numerous therapists
accepted the assertions as true

and began searching for similar signs
in their own patients.

After one year,

thousands of people reported
the exact same "repressed" memories.

But the Bureau conducted
an investigation and concluded

that most of the ritual killings or abuse

were more urban legend
than anything else.

You're saying that there's no such thing
as devil worshipping?

Not at all.

But most of the Satanism we've seen

is juveniles damaging property,
desecrating churches, cemeteries.

To my knowledge,
there's never been a proven case

of a Satanic ritual killing
in the United States.

Well, maybe there is now.

Morning! John Bridges.

Hi. Yeah, we spoke on the phone.

I'm Agent Jareau,
this is Agent Gideon and Dr Reid

with the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit.

-Hi.
-Thanks for coming out so fast.

Yeah, of course.

There was an in-service
in Charlottesville last year.

Said if we ran into
any unusual homicides

we were supposed to call you folks.

-Sooner rather than later.
-Yeah, they were right.

-So, is this unusual enough?
-It certainly is interesting.

BRIDGES: You guys must get
a lot of this, huh? Satanic stuff?

Not really. Who found the body?

Hiker found the first one at the trail.

My deputies located this one
while searching for evidence.

Don't even know
if it's a man or a woman.

It's a man.

Male pelvis is more narrow

and the opening at the bottom
is heart-shaped as opposed to oval.

-Melted wax?
-Candle wax?

Candles are used in rituals.

Also used on birthday cakes.

Actually, they were originally used

to protect the birthday celebrant
from demons for the coming year.

As a matter of fact,
down to the fourth century,

Christianity rejected the birthday
celebration as a Pagan ritual.

What kind of doctor are you?

He was kind of a local hero.
A high school football star.

HOTCH: So, a pretty strong kid, huh?

I know he used to run out here on the
mountain all the time. That's not easy.

-HOTCH: No.
-Was he out here running today?

He was wearing sweats.

A crime of opportunity,
or was the UnSub

laying in wait for this kid specifically?

-"UnSub"?
-Unknown subject. The killer.

If it is a cult, you think they cared
who the victim was?

Maybe. Maybe not.

So, we're talking about a blitz attack
on a high-risk victim,

one who could defend himself
with a weapon picked up at the scene.

Disorganised offender. Could be a cult.

The Manson crime scenes
were textbook disorganised murder.

ELLE: This looks like
a heavily travelled area.

A lot of the locals walk these paths.
Some tourists, too.

If you were going to conduct
a ritual killing,

would you do it
in the middle of a travelled path?

Well, if the other crime scene was
a ritual site, where the pentagram is,

I might blitz the victim here
and drag him to the other scene.

Why didn't they?

GIDEON: Does "L.O.D." mean
anything to you?

Mmm-mmm. I don't know of any
significance in Satanism either.

Well, I'd have Garcia research this
"L.O.D." thing if I could get a call out.

Not much of a chance of that out here.

Are there any cults in the area
that you know about?

Secret groups?

People you see
you don't know much about?

People who stay to themselves mostly?

This is a very religious area.

Church on Sundays, fellowship
on Wednesday, Bible classes.

If there was a secret group
I'd probably know about it.

-That's an inherent contradiction.
-Excuse me?

He means, if there was a group being
secretive, you probably wouldn't know.

Look, people out here just want
a quiet place to raise their kids.

What I know is
none of them are capable of doing this.

Find anything interesting down there?

Yeah, it does look like
some kind of ritual site.

Have any of you ever heard
the expression "Lod"?

Or the acronym "L.O.D."?

-Not me.
-WOMAN: Cherish? Cherish!

-Sheriff Bridges!
-It's okay, Harris. Let her in.

Was Adam Lloyd killed out here?

-Who told you that, Veronica?
-Was he?

-We're not releasing...
-My daughter was with him!

They went out running together
this morning.

Oh, my God, I can't find her.
Cherish is missing!

Cherish is missing!

Help me, please!

(VERONICA CRYING)

BRIDGES: Okay.
You need to just calm down.

BRIDGES: Take her home.
OFFICER: I will, sir.

We're looking for someone
who can overpower a victim.

Abduct a girl from a travelled path
without being seen.

Certainly fits with the cult theory.

More than one UnSub
to control multiple victims.

But if the attack were ferocious enough,
a single UnSub could, too.

Kill Adam and grab the girl
while she's in shock.

This is some rough country.

We only went a quarter of a mile
and we almost got lost.

The UnSub has to be from this area.

You don't just stumble
onto a place like this.

JJ, where did the Sheriff go?

He's setting up a search party.

Tell him we want him to use volunteers
from the area. Locals.

-Do you want him to know why?
-(CHUCKLES) No, not yet.

Is it wise to alienate him?

Well, he thinks
we're looking for a monster.

If we tell him
we're looking for volunteers

so we can profile who shows up,
he might call the whole thing off.

State won't be here for over an hour.

-We're not going to wait.
-All right.

I want you to gather everyone up
and I'm going to assign grid locations.

Yes, sir.

You have a moment, Sheriff?

I've got a missing girl,
a hundred square miles of woods,

not enough men and in a couple
of hours it's going to be dark.

Have you considered using the people
that live in the area?

I'm not gonna have civilians
messing up the crime scene.

We can instruct them
not to touch anything

until a member
of law enforcement arrives.

What if they get lost, too?

We can have them
sign into a volunteer sheet

and keep track
of what grid square they're in.

Look, I grew up in a small town.

-You have the state police coming in?
-Yeah.

Your locals can do a better job of
finding this girl than any "statie."

You know that.

You'll keep track of them?

I've coordinated searches
all over the country.

Let's go. Harris! I'm going downtown.

Don't do anything until I get back,
all right?

Hey! Can I come with you guys?

I need to call Quantico and have them
research that whole L.O.D. thing.

Yeah, sure. Hop in.

-What's happened, John?
-Reverend Paul Burke, this is...

I'm sorry, I forgot your names.

I'm Agent Jareau. This is Dr Reid.

-They're with the FBI.
-FBI?

-It's true, then? Adam's dead?
-Cherish Hanson is missing, too.

-Is there anything I can do?
-Actually, yes.

We're putting together a search party.
Could you call the congregation?

Of course.
Of course, I'll go make some calls.

Thanks, Reverend. This way.

You can use any phone, Doctor.
Just dial nine to get an outside line.

I've got an emergency phone list
back here in my office.

CORY: Do you play ball?

No.

Yeah, I probably wouldn't have either
if not for my father.

-I'm Cory.
-Spencer Reid.

Is that Nietzsche?

Thus Spake Zarathustra
is rather antagonistic

of the Judeo-Christian
world-view for this town, isn't it?

I don't think too many people here

would have bothered to read it.

If they had, they wouldn't understand it.

Might as well
be a Hawking essay on quark theory.

Hey, nobody ever got
that reference before.

Is my father around? The Sheriff?

-He's in his office with another agent.
-Agent?

I'm with the FBI.
The Behavioral Analysis Unit.

Profilers? This is mad cool.

I got like a hundred questions I got...

Wait. Why would FBI profilers
be here in McAllister?

There was a murder outside of town.
On the mountain.

-A murder?
-And a girl's missing.

-BRIDGES: It's Cherish, son.
-Cherish Hanson?

Yeah.

Putting together a search party.

I need you
to get the rest of the team together

and meet us out at the trail
about a half mile south of the Point.

Yeah. Okay.

-I came as soon as I heard, Sheriff.
-BRIDGES: Morning, Henry.

Sign in with this lady here and then
just stand by for a few minutes.

PAUL: Everyone, please!

As soon as you've signed in,
make your way back to the police cars.

That's where
you'll be assigned your groups.

Thank you.

I grew up in Brooklyn.

You couldn't get this many people out
for anything less than free money.

MORGAN: Well, here come
the jocks and cheerleaders.

BRIDGES: Ladies and gentlemen,
could I have your attention, please?

Now, you were all assigned
grid squares to search.

Each grid has a deputy
or an FBI agent.

If you find anything, do not touch it.

Just let your grid leader know.
Are there any questions?

All right.

Everyone get in your group now.

All right, you guys. Let's head out.

-You have the sign-in sheets?
-Yeah.

Garcia's standing by
to do background on them all?

Yeah. I got a deputy waiting
to take me back to the station.

I'm going to fax her
as soon as I get there.

Good. This type of UnSub can't resist
injecting himself into a show like this.

He's here with us. Let's go.

Man, this is one
Peyton Place of a town.

Most everyone lives well above
the median income of the country.

You have doctors, lawyers...

One guy owns a bunch of shoe stores
up and down the Eastern Seaboard.

-Is he married?
-Yeah.

Story of my life, sunshine.

Reverend Paul Burke.

Looks like
he became born-again in prison.

-Prison?
-Yeah.

Two years as the guest of
State of Ohio for embezzlement.

I'm seeing a lot of tax sheltering
and various hanky-panky here,

but I'm not sure what would suggest
potential Satanic cult members.

-Hold on.
-What, you got something?

Yeah, I got a guy with a ton of debt.
Spotty work history.

His house is in foreclosure.
He's got a record, too.

Assault with a deadly weapon
three years ago.

Wait, does it say
what the weapon was?

Baseball bat.

-Our UnSub used a blunt object.
-Bats are blunt, aren't they?

What's this guy's name?

-Dent. Henry Dent.
-JJ: Okay, here he is.

Grid B-5.

Okay, that puts him with Elle.

You all right, there?

(GASPS)

-Way to scare a girl.
-I saw you bent over.

I was tying my boot.

These almost never come untied.

-Good for you.
-My name's Henry.

Well, then, good for you, Henry.
I'm Elle.

Like the letter?
That's a different kind of name.

Had it all my life.

(CHUCKLES) That's funny.
Your whole life.

You're with the FBI, right?

-That must be exciting.
-It has its moments.

It's dangerous, too, right?
I mean, you go after killers and things?

Really bad guys.
You ever have to shoot...

"Satan commands the virgin be
sacrificed at the next full moon."

That's tonight, isn't it?

What's that?

Blood.

(YAWNS)

Tired?

-I'm fine.
-We all get them sometimes.

-Get what?
-Nightmares.

MORGAN: Okay.

It's not that bad.

If you want to talk about it,
you know where I am.

-They're ready.
-HOTCH: Okay.

HOTCH: Contrary to popular belief,

there has never been
a proven case of Satanic ritual killing.

Never a verified human sacrifice.

Having said that, there have been
isolated cases of animal sacrifice.

And many, many cases of vandalism
in the name of Satan.

Now, that doesn't mean
that ritual Satanism is impossible.

And, more importantly for our purposes,

there have been cults that killed.

Just not in ritual fashion.

REID: The Reverend Jim Jones
and the Peoples Temple.

His followers killed
a U.S. Congressman and three people

before committing mass suicide,
leaving over 900 people dead.

And perhaps the most widely known
of the killer cults, the Manson Family,

under the direction of Charles Manson,

killed nine people in a four-day period
in an attempt to initiate a race war.

Killer cults do exist.
And they all have one thing in common.

Invariably, they're headed
by charismatic megalomaniacs.

REID: You're looking for that leader.
He's who will stand out.

He'll be memorable to somebody.

People who aren't in his group
will see him as strange, weird, scary.

HOTCH: Since we're dealing
with professed Satanists,

which is often practised
by younger males,

we may be looking for teenagers.

Heavy metal music
is often associated with Satanism,

and these kids and their leader
may reflect that in their look.

Most likely
there'll be sex, drugs and alcohol.

Now, the leader, he'll be older.
It's part of his charm.

And he is from this area.
He's definitely local.

These woods
are too thick and confusing

for a visitor to get around in.

You think one of our own people
is doing this?

We're sure of it.

I would know if someone was capable...

Dad? I know somebody like that.

(HEAVY METAL MUSIC PLAYING)

CORY: His name is Mike Zizzo.
He graduated about five years ago.

He's in his twenties, but he
still hangs out with high school kids.

He's got a group of them.
They follow him everywhere.

They all get high
and listen to heavy metal.

He calls them
"The Lords of Destruction."

-L.O.D.
-How do you know this, Cory?

It's all right, Son.

I've been there. Where they hang out.
Drinking beers.

He talks about Satan all the time.

Says he's the one true God.

-Where is this place?
-On the other side of the mountain.

-The old Jenson house.
-It's out of my jurisdiction.

Not ours.

I'm sorry, Dad.

-I'm not going on the raid.
-What's up?

I don't know yet.

(CAR ENGINE STARTING)

(HEAVY METAL MUSIC PLAYING)

MORGAN: FBI! Don't move!
FEMALE: Chill out, man!

BRIDGES: McAllister County
Sheriff's Department.

Everybody against the wall. Now! Now!

MORGAN: Where's Zizzo?
Where is he?

BRIDGES: Turn the music down!

MORGAN: Where's Zizzo?
BRIDGES: Put that bottle down!

BRIDGES: I said turn the music
down now! Up against the wall!

Everybody up against the wall now!
Up against the wall!

Do you believe in God?

Excuse me?

Do you believe in God?

Yes.

How about the devil?

Is someone going to tell me
why I'm here

or are we just going to play
staring games all night?

This was found
where Cherish Hanson went missing.

No wonder everyone's all freaked out.

McAllister's perfect debutante
is in trouble.

Read the note.

(SIGHS)

(SNICKERS)

You think someone
threatening to kill this girl is funny?

No. I think someone calling
Cherish Hanson a virgin is funny.

-You a Satanist, Mike?
-Sure.

You worship the devil?

-You even know what Satanism is?
-Educate us.

The word Satan comes from
ancient Hebrew.

It just means "opposer."

Satan opposes
the hypocritical morals and dogma

of the so-called
Holy Church and its followers.

If you grew up in this town with God
shoved down your throat every day,

you'd oppose it, too.

It's all hypocrisy.

Do this, don't do that,

and all the time
the adults are the ones screwing up.

So basically, we're just atheists.
Aggressively atheist.

How aggressive, Mike?

You're one of the FBI agents,
aren't you?

Is there something you want to tell me?

Do you think God is vengeful?

I don't know.

You don't think he punishes us?

After Hurricane Katrina, I read
some essays by religious scholars.

One writer said, "God was
punishing America for its immorality."

New Orleans was a wicked city
like Sodom and Gomorrah.

Another one,
a priest from New Orleans,

he thought the hurricane
was proof of God's love.

Because the levees didn't break
until after the storm was over.

If they'd broken sooner,
thousands would have died.

So,

I guess the answer to your question
depends on

whether or not you think
you have something to be punished for.

My friend Cherish, she's missing,

and it's my fault.

I got to give the Sheriff a report.
I'll be back as soon as I can.

-You guys need anything?
-Coffee would be nice.

He takes about a quart of sugar in it.

-Two teaspoons is fine.
-You got it.

Morgan. You knew I didn't want you
to tell Hotch about my nightmares.

Reid, that's something they need
to know about.

-What do you mean, "they"?
-Hotch and Gideon.

-You told Gideon, too?
-Yeah. And it's okay, kid.

What if they think I can't do my job?

What if they want to
pull me off the team?

-They won't.
-Oh, yeah? How do you know that?

(SIGHS)

I just do.

You had no right, man.
I confided in you.

You know, this is exactly what I get
when I trust someone.

It gets thrown back in my face.

Mine started six months
after I got into the BAU.

Yeah. Mine.

(SIGHS)

We were working a strangler case
in Montana.

Four victims.

Me? I was still pretty young at the time.

So, you know, I was feeling myself.
I was cocky. I was arrogant.

The locals, they didn't have anything,
so I stepped up.

I said, "I can nail down a profile for you
just as soon as I get what I need."

-More victims.
-Mmm-hmm.

She was found the next day.

So I went down to the scene
to do my thing.

And as I was looking over the body,
that's when I saw them.

Her eyes, Reid.

They were wide-open.

And there was something
different about them.

It was like they were looking right at me.

Like she knew.

I asked for a victim. Well, here she was.

That's when they started for me.

Night after night I would fall asleep
and I would see those eyes.

They were dead eyes, accusing eyes.

And it got to the point
where it was happening

even when I wasn't asleep.

Reid, everywhere I went,
I saw those eyes.

-What did you do?
-Gideon.

He knew. I didn't tell him.

I was like you.
I didn't want anybody to know.

He just... He knew.

And he sat me down and he...
He just kind of talked me through it.

I still have the nightmares to this day.

Just not nearly as often.

But when they come back
I know how to handle them better.

What did he say?

-Did you find her? Cherish?
-REID: No.

Did Zizzo say anything?

MORGAN: We don't know.
We've been here the whole time.

-Cory, calm down.
-How am I supposed to calm down?

Cherish is missing.
Did you check all over?

We searched the whole house.

-What about the outbuilding?
-Outbuilding?

Did you check the other area?
Back in the woods?

I didn't know there was another area.

Yeah, it's like a sluice structure
or something.

He took me there once. It's this way.

MORGAN: Let's go.

The skeleton under the tree?

He died a year ago.

Fell off the trail, cracked his head open.
It was just some tourist or something.

How do you know that?

We went to see the body all the time.
We watched it decompose.

-Who did?
-We did.

Everybody. The whole group.

-What the hell is this?
-Why don't you tell us, Mike?

I've never seen this before.

Pentagram, body, candles, L.O.D.

Lords of Destruction.

I've never seen this.

HOTCH: From where I stand, Mike,
it looks like you signed it.

BRANDY: At first we were just curious,
you know?

We'd go, a couple of us at a time.
Show each other...

None of us
had ever seen a dead body before.

And it kind of became our thing.

Something we had
that our parents didn't know about.

It was ours.

-This was a human being.
-(CRYING) I told you.

We're being punished.

It's up here.

This is their secret place.

MORGAN: Reid.

I can't believe this is happening.

This kind of thing,
it doesn't happen in McAllister.

REID: You said you read
the profiling books.

You know
bad things happen anywhere.

Anywhere at any time.

She in there? She all right?

-REID: Cory...
-She's in there.

What, is she dead?

(MORGAN SIGHS)

But she can't be dead.

Oh, come on. Come on.

Look, we draw stars upside down,
get drunk and listen to metal.

That's it. Okay? We don't kill people.

This is your chance
to make this right, Zizzo.

ZIZZO: You don't want to make it right.

You want to blame someone

who doesn't conform to your view
of how people should act and think.

(DOOR OPENING)

I need to talk to you. All of you.

Reid.

I want you to go to the house and see

-if the deputies have come back.
-What?

We need the Sheriff
and the crime scene team here.

-But...
-Reid. Do it.

I can't... I can't believe...

Cherish.

I'm sorry about your friend.

I saw her the other day.
There was a pep rally.

I've been with Brandy Dreifort.
Do you know her?

Yeah, she's a friend of my son's.

-She's a friend of Cherish's, too.
-And?

-Well, they all knew about the skeleton.
-Who did?

Football team, cheerleaders, everyone.

They all watched this man decompose
like it was a game for their amusement.

-What?
-Far as I can tell,

the only kids in the area who didn't
know were Mike Zizzo and the L.O.D.

-It's ridiculous.
-Well, it's impossible. It's unbelievable.

But she told me all about it.
The guy was a hiker or something.

Probably have him listed.
A missing person somewhere.

Jason, how do you know the L.O.D.
wasn't involved?

Well, she said the pentagram
and the candles,

they weren't there a few months ago.

Which means?

Someone wanted us to believe
there were Satanists here.

Reid tells me
you've read all the profiling books.

I'm actually kind of hoping to be
one of you guys someday.

Are you?

So then you know what profilers do.

The UnSub likes to inject himself
into the investigation.

That's what this type of killer does.

Who gave us Zizzo?
Who knew all about him?

-You're talking about Cory.
-GIDEON: It was convenient, wasn't it?

Lucky we had a kid right in the room
who could tell us where the L.O.D. was

and a group of fringe kids
nobody in the town would like.

-But...
-You called us here to advise you.

My advice would be
to get in front of this

before your son hurts himself
or anybody else.

You know where he is, Sheriff?

He went up to the Jenson house to see
if your guys found anything on Cherish.

HOTCH: Morgan and Reid
are out there, right now.

Hey, Sheriff.
Did you open the gun locker?

-No.
-Someone did.

There's a revolver missing.

You know that we look at a crime scene

from a different perspective
than regular cops, right?

We look for more
than just the evidence.

We try to pick up
on the behaviour of the killer.

For example,
the guy we're looking for in this crime

would be classified
as a disorganised killer.

-Sounds like Zizzo, doesn't it?
-Yeah. Sure it does.

But, you know, then again,

sometimes a disorganised killer
only looks disorganised.

Sometimes it's actually
an organised guy.

And a pretty smart guy.

Somebody who can manipulate
a crime scene

to make it look like
somebody else did it.

Because of that,

we also got to look for someone
who might try to put himself

right in the middle of an investigation,
so that he can influence things.

Especially if he knows exactly
what it is that we're looking for.

I mean, he wants to control us, right?
Hmm?

And that would extend to discovery.

Wanting the body found when

and especially where
he wants that body found.

You mean me?

This was more than just a lucky guess,
wasn't it?

I knew about the building.

You also knew about Zizzo
and the Satanism.

-I was only trying to help.
-Well, you did that.

Couldn't have found this place
without you.

REID: Hey, Morgan. No one's up there.

CORY: Get over here! Don't move!
MORGAN: Freeze! Freeze!

-Cory!
-This got all messed up.

-Don't be stupid.
-She wasn't supposed to be with him.

It was his run!
He runs it every day. Not her!

Cory, listen to me. We can fix this.
But you got to let Reid go.

I never meant to hurt her, but make no
mistake, I will shoot your boy right now.

No, you won't.

-(GUN COCKS)
-I'm not a desperate man.

-Put the gun down!
-Okay! All right. You win.

Drop it. Drop the gun!

Okay. Okay. You win.

I'm putting the gun down.

You're in control, Cory. Let him go.

"For the evil is man's best force.
'Man must become better and eviler.'"

-What?
-That's what this is about, right?

Zarathustra? The superman?

There's no moral obligation for killing
someone if you're superior to them.

But Nietzsche
was speaking metaphorically

about evolving as a species.

You're just a horny kid

who wanted to
get rid of the cheerleader's boyfriend.

-No! That was never my...
-Yes!

Come on.

(GUNSHOT)

-You all right?
-What happened?

Him bringing us down here was
way too much of a coincidence.

No, I got that.

Did you have to tackle us both?

You're welcome, Reid.

Come on. Let's go, Cory.

GIDEON: Playwright Eugène Ionesco
said,

"Ideologies separate us,

"dreams and anguish
bring us together."

Reid.

Deborah Louise Addison.

Her husband, Tim. The kids
are Amber and Keith. Eight and six.

1985, Deborah Louise was walking
home from school, she was abducted.

She was 13.

We profiled the UnSub

and we were able to locate her
before he harmed her.

She writes a letter to the BAU
every year.

She updates us on her life.

That's nice, but...

We all have bad dreams.

Everyone on the plane. Who wouldn't?

We hunt the worst of humanity,
we see the depths of depravity.

We dream of monsters...

In my dream,
there's a baby in the middle of a circle

and there's someone on the other side
and I can't get to her before I...

Every night I look at Deborah.

Helps me.

Helps me go to sleep
thinking of the victims we've saved.

Don't always beat the monsters
to the babies,

but we do enough
to make the job worth it.

Keep the nightmares bearable.
