Criminal Minds (2005–…): Season 4, Episode 13 - Bloodline - full transcript

PREVIOUSLY ON CRIMINAL MINDS...

WE APPEAL TO HIM--

DO NOT HURT ANY MORE PEOPLE.

HE KILLED THOSE PEOPLE
BECAUSE OF SOMETHING I SAID.

THAT IS PART OF THE JOB.
TELL ME NOW IF YOU CAN
DO IT OR NOT.

JORDAN?

HE JUST KILLED
HIS ENTIRE FAMILY.

IS THIS MY FAULT?

NO WAY.

I'M NOT SURE
I CAN DO THIS JOB.

OH, IT'S UP THERE,
ON THE RIGHT.



COME ON, SON, IT'S TIME.

I KNOW YOU'RE AWAKE.

WHAT'S WRONG?

NOTHING.

THERE'S SOMETHING ON YOUR MIND.
TELL US WHAT IT IS.

WHAT IF SHE DOESN'T LIKE ME?

LET HER GET TO KNOW YOU.

THERE'S NO RUSH.

IS THAT REALLY
WHAT YOU'RE WORRIED ABOUT?

DO I HAVE TO MEET HER THIS WAY?

WE'VE BEEN TALKING
ABOUT THIS MOMENT
YOUR WHOLE LIFE.

I KNOW.

BABY, LOOK AT ME.

YOU'RE ALMOST 10.



YOU'RE BECOMING A MAN.

I LOVE YOU.

I LOVE YOU, TOO.

COME ON.

Rossi: WHAT WAS IT?

HEY.

EXCUSE ME.

UH-OH.
THIS ISN'T GOOD.

WE HAVE A REQUEST
FROM ALABAMA.

HAVE EVERYBODY MEET
IN THE CONFERENCE ROOM.
I'LL BE THERE IN 10 MINUTES.

A HUSBAND AND WIFE
WERE MURDERED AT THEIR HOME
WHILE THEY WERE SLEEPING.

THEIR 10-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER
WENT MISSING.

I GOTTA CALL YOU BACK.

WHEN WERE THE BODIES
DISCOVERED?

WHAT WAS THE TIME OF DEATH?
LESS THAN AN HOUR AGO.

8 HOURS.
APPROXIMATELY 1 A.M.

I KNOW THIS ISN'T
A SERIAL.

YOU'RE RIGHT. MOST ABDUCTED
CHILDREN DON'T SURVIVE

PAST THE FIRST 24 HOURS.

DAVE.

WHAT'S GOING ON?

WE GOT A MISSING
10-YEAR-OLD GIRL,
HOME INVASION.

PARENTS WERE KILLED
IN THEIR SLEEP.

8 HOURS AND COUNTING.
WHERE'S OUR CLOCK?

I'LL FIND MORGAN AND REID
AND TELL THEM WE'RE ON THE MOVE.

GOOD. WHEELS UP IN 30.

YOU NEED YOUR GO BAG.

JORDAN?

RIGHT.

RIGHT.

[LIQUID BEING POURED]

[CRYING]

PLEASE LET ME GO.

LET ME GO.
I WON'T TELL.

PLEASE.

IT'S OK.

WE TALKED ABOUT THIS.

ARE YOU--ARE YOU THIRSTY?

PLEASE DON'T HURT ME.

IT'S ONLY WATER.

CAN I DECIDE NOW?

IT'S UP TO YOU.

I'M GONNA CALL YOU...

ELENA.

Prentiss:
WINSTON CHURCHILL SAID,

"THERE IS NO DOUBT
THAT IT IS AROUND THE FAMILY

"AND THE HOME THAT ALL
THE GREATEST VIRTUES
OF HUMAN SOCIETY

ARE CREATED, STRENGTHENED,
AND MAINTAINED."

[SIGHS]

WE GOT THE UPLINKS
OF THE CRIME SCENE PHOTOS.

THIS IS GEOFF AND NANCY HALE.
BOTH THEIR THROATS WERE CUT.

NOTHING.
ANY EVIDENCE OF ABUSE?

SLITTING SOMEONE'S THROAT
IS QUICK AND EFFICIENT.

THAT'S BECAUSE THE REAL TARGET
WAS DOWN THE HALL.

SHE HAS A NAME.

WHAT?

SHE'S NOT "THE TARGET."
HER NAME'S CATE.

SHE'S 10 YEARS OLD.

ALL RIGHT.

AMBER ALERT IN EFFECT?

SINCE 7 A.M. THIS MORNING.

WITH THE UNSUB'S HEAD START
HE COULD BE ANYWHERE

WITHIN A 400-MILE RADIUS.

MAKE SURE THAT THEY'RE CASTING
A WIDE ENOUGH NET.

WHO DISCOVERED THE BODIES?
GOT IT.

JIM SCHEUREN,
CATE'S BIOLOGICAL FATHER.

HE WAS SUPPOSED TO TAKE HER
FOR THE WEEKEND.

THE POLICE DON'T
CONSIDER HIM A SUSPECT.

WE'LL WANT TO TALK TO HIM
ANYWAY.

WE'RE ALSO GOING TO NEED
A LIST OF REGISTERED
SEX OFFENDERS

IN A 20-MILE RADIUS.

WHAT'S THE MAKEUP
OF THE HALES' NEIGHBORHOOD?

MOSTLY WHITE AND MIDDLE CLASS.

WE'LL NEED AERIAL VIEWS
OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

IF MADISON COUNTY DOESN'T
HAVE THEM, TALK TO GARCIA.

DAVE, YOU AND MORGAN
GO TO THE CRIME SCENE.

THE REST OF US WILL
GET UP TO SPEED
AT THE PRECINCT.

BO WHITAKER.

DAVID ROSSI.

I RECOGNIZE YOU
FROM THE TV.

DEREK MORGAN.

BO WHITAKER.
PLEASED TO MEET YOU.

POINT OF ENTRY'S AROUND BACK.

NOW, THE NEIGHBORS DIDN'T
SEE OR HEAR ANYTHING.

AND THE DOGS LOST THE SCENT
ALMOST IMMEDIATELY.

NOT HARD TO TARGET
A FAMILY OUT HERE.

EVEN IN BROAD DAYLIGHT.

WALK 5 FEET OFF THE TRACK,

MAN COULD GET LOST
FOR DAYS.

SO, HE HAD
PLENTY OF PRIVACY

TO WATCH WHAT
HE WAS REALLY AFTER.

[LAUGHING]

I PREFER CITIES.

YOU CAN SEE THEM COMING.

NOTHING VERY SOPHISTICATED.

KNOCKED OFF THE PANE
TO UNLOCK THE DOOR.

DO YOU THINK
THE GIRL'S DEAD?

DEPENDS ON WHAT
HE TOOK HER FOR.

THE HALES' NEIGHBORHOOD
IS A SERIES OF RURAL ROADS

AND ONE-BLOCK STREETS.

HOW FAR TO A MAIN
THOROUGHFARE?

A LITTLE OVER 3 MILES.

SO HE DIDN'T COME UPON
CATE BY ACCIDENT.

SHERIFF BATES.
YES.

IS CATE'S FATHER
HERE YET?

HE'S ON HIS WAY.

LET ME KNOW THE SECOND
HE GETS HERE.

I TOLD YOU, WE ALREADY
CHECKED OUT HIS ALIBI.

HE'S NOT GOOD FOR THIS.

I KNOW, BUT HE MIGHT
KNOW WHO IS.

ALL RIGHT.

IS THAT
THE AUTOPSY REPORT?

LISTEN, ABOUT THE PLANE--

OH, THAT'S ALREADY
FORGOTTEN.

FIND ANYTHING
IN CATE'S ROOM?

THAT'S WHAT'S WEIRD.

THERE'S NO SIGN OF STRUGGLE.
IT DIDN'T EVEN LOOK LIKE

SHE TRIED TO GET OUT OF BED
IN A HURRY.

HER PARENTS' THROATS
WERE CUT.

IF THERE WAS
THE ELEMENT OF SURPRISE,

THEY MIGHT NOT HAVE
HAD TIME TO SCREAM.

BOTH OF THEM?

WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?

THE NECK WOUNDS--

SOMETHING'S OFF.

I'M THE UNSUB.

I KILL GEOFF HALE FIRST.

HE PRESENTS
THE BIGGEST THREAT.

BUT HOW DO I DO THAT
WITHOUT WAKING NANCY

WHO'S SLEEPING
RIGHT NEXT TO HIM?

NO LIGATURE MARKS.
NEITHER ONE WAS TIED DOWN.

AND NO DEFENSIVE WOUNDS,
EITHER.

GEOFF HALE--CAUSE OF DEATH
WAS A SINGLE DEEP, SMOOTH CUT

THAT SEVERED THE CAROTID ARTERY.

AND NANCY?

NANCY HALE--DEATH
WAS CAUSED BY A SERIES
OF JAGGED, SHALLOW WOUNDS

THAT PUNCTURED
THE CAROTID ARTERY.

Morgan:
THERE'S MORE THAN ONE UNSUB.

YOU'RE SURE?

HE WAS EITHER ABLE TO RESTRAIN
NANCY WHILE HE KILLED GEOFF,

OR SHE WOKE UP, WHICH MEANS
SHE WOULD HAVE SCREAMED.

AT WHICH POINT,
CATE WOULD HAVE WOKEN UP.

EITHER WAY, WE'RE LOOKING
AT MULTIPLE UNSUBS.

SO THINGS ARE WORSE
THAN WE THOUGHT.

YES AND NO.

CATE'S CHANCES OF SURVIVAL
JUST GOT BETTER.

HOW DO YOU FIGURE?

TWO UNSUBS
CHANGE THE DYNAMICS.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN,
DYNAMICS?

THEY SPENT MORE TIME
WITH HER.

YEAH, PRENTISS HAS
THE SAME THEORY BASED ON
THE AUTOPSY REPORT.

RIGHT. WE'RE ABOUT TO SPEAK
TO CATE'S FATHER.

STAY AT THE SCENE.
I'LL CALL YOU
THE SECOND I'M OUT.

DAD'S IN THERE.

SHERIFF, ALERT YOUR MEN.
WE MAY BE LOOKING AT A TEAM.

I'LL GET IT ON THE WIRE.

HOW'S THE FATHER?

BETWEEN YOU AND ME,

I'VE CLEANED UP BAR FIGHTS
SMELL BETTER THAN HE DOES
RIGHT NOW.

MR. SCHEUREN.

I'M AARON HOTCHNER.
I'M WITH THE FBI.

CAN I GET YOU
ANYTHING? COFFEE?

NO, NO. I CAN ANSWER
YOUR QUESTIONS.

DO YOU KNOW IF YOUR
EX-WIFE AND HER HUSBAND
HAVE ANY ENEMIES?

NO.

I MEAN, I DON'T KNOW.

I DON'T--I DON'T KNOW. I--

WHAT ABOUT CATE?
HAS SHE TALKED ABOUT
ANYONE NEW IN HER LIFE?

SHE'S A NORMAL KID, YOU KNOW?

SHE...MEETS PEOPLE ALL THE TIME.

THIS WOULD BE AN ADULT,

POSSIBLY A WHITE MALE.

HE MIGHT BE AN AUTHORITY
FIGURE TO HER.

THE REASON THAT I ASK
IS THAT GIVEN THE LOCATION

OF YOUR EX-WIFE'S HOUSE,

WE THINK SOMEONE HAS
TARGETED CATE SPECIFICALLY.

UH...SORRY.

WELL, IS THERE ANYTHING
THAT YOU CAN THINK OF

THAT MIGHT BE HELPFUL?

WE LIKE TO GO
TO THE MOVIES.

THERE'S A NEW, UH,
MULTIPLEX AT THE MALL.

HOW OFTEN TO YOU SEE CATE?

I HAVE VISITATION
EVERY 2 WEEKS.

DO YOU KEEP
TO THAT SCHEDULE?

THE REASON THAT I ASK
IS THAT RIGHT NOW
TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE.

WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?

WITH ALL DUE RESPECT, SIR,

IT MEANS THAT IF YOU CAN'T
ADD TO MY KNOWLEDGE OF CATE,

MY TIME IS BETTER SPENT
SOMEWHERE ELSE.

I'LL KEEP YOU POSTED
WITH ANY DEVELOPMENTS.

YES?
AGENT--

THERE'S ONE THING--

HOLD ON A SECOND.
I'M RIGHT HERE.

HOTCH, I GOT IT.

OK, BRING IT WITH YOU
WHEN YOU COME TO THE STATION.

THANKS.

WHAT'S GOING ON?

CATE HALE HAS EPILEPSY,
AND WHOEVER ABDUCTED HER

DIDN'T KNOW
TO TAKE THE MEDICINE.

AND THE PRIMARY CAUSE
OF SEIZURES IS STRESS.

I KNOW, DAD.
REMEMBER WHAT I SAID.

JUST CONCENTRATE.
HE SHOULDN'T EVEN
REALIZE YOU'RE THERE.

I KNOW.

GO AHEAD.

[BELL TINKLING]

CHIN UP. THIS ISN'T SOMETHING
YOU LEARN OVERNIGHT. [ECHOING]

I'M READY NOW.
[ECHOING]

YOU NEED TO MASTER IT
HERE FIRST. [ECHOING]

NOW TRY IT AGAIN.

[CRASH]

NO, NO! DON'T TOUCH HER.

WHAT'S WRONG WITH HER?

CAN YOU HEAR ME?

SHE'S SICK.
DON'T GO NEAR HER.

SHE'S NO GOOD.

WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING.

YOU'RE RIGHT.

WE DON'T KILL YOUNG GIRLS.

THIS IS MY FAMILY.

THEN YOU KILL HER.

HELP! HELP!

SOMEBODY! AAH!

[BRAKES SCREECHING]

HER FATHER'S WITH HER.

SHE'S BEEN IN AND OUT
OF CONSCIOUSNESS,

BUT HER VITALS ARE STABLE.

ANY SIGN OF SEXUAL ASSAULT?

WE HAVEN'T TESTED YET.
WE WANTED TO GIVE HER
TIME TO PROCESS.

MAY WE SPEAK WITH HER?

YOU SHOULD KNOW,
SEIZURES OFTEN COME
WITH RETROGRADE AMNESIA.

SHE MIGHT HAVE HOLES
IN HER MEMORY.

PRENTISS, YOU SHOULD
DO THIS ALONE.

OK.

THANKS, SHERIFF.

MR. SCHEUREN, HELLO.

I'M AGENT EMILY PRENTISS
FROM THE FBI.

I WOULD LIKE PERMISSION
TO SPEAK WITH YOUR DAUGHTER.

OK.

I'M SORRY, I'D LIKE
TO DO IT ALONE
IF POSSIBLE.

WHY?

I NEED TO ASK HER
CERTAIN QUESTIONS,

AND SOMETIMES
IT'S EASIER FOR A GIRL

TO ANSWER THOSE
QUESTIONS WHEN THERE
ARE NO MEN PRESENT.

DADDY.
I'M HER FATHER.

PLEASE?

ALL RIGHT, BABY.

I'LL BE RIGHT OUTSIDE.

THANK YOU.

HEY, CATE.

MY NAME'S EMILY.

I'M SO SORRY
ABOUT YOUR MOM
AND YOUR STEPDAD.

I'D LIKE TO ASK YOU
SOME QUESTIONS

SO WE CAN FIND OUT
WHO DID THIS.

IS THAT OK?

YEAH, IT'S OK.

THE DOCTOR TOLD ME
THAT IF THE PARAMEDICS
HADN'T BEEN ALERTED

TO HER EPILEPSY,
SHE MIGHT NOT HAVE MADE IT.

YOU HELPED SAVE HER LIFE.

YOU SEEN THIS KIND
OF THING BEFORE?

UNFORTUNATELY.

AND KIDS COME OUT
OF IT OK, HUH?

IT'LL TAKE TIME.

AND PATIENCE.

SHE'S GOING TO NEED YOU.

YESTERDAY WOULD HAVE BEEN
THE FIRST TIME I'D SEEN HER

IN A MONTH AND A HALF.

A COLLEAGUE OF MINE
ASKED ME THE OTHER DAY

HOW MY SON WAS ENJOYING
THE CHRISTMAS PRESENT
HE GOT FOR HIM,

AND I HAD TO MAKE UP
AN ANSWER BECAUSE
I DIDN'T KNOW.

I THINK I'LL GET
THAT CUP OF COFFEE NOW.

THE POLICE SENT THE BLANKET
AND CATE'S CLOTHING

TO BE PROCESSED.

GOOD.

GARCIA.

OH, CAPTAIN, MY CAPTAIN.

I NEED A LIST OF CRIMES
INVOLVING PARTNERS

WITHIN A 90-MILE RADIUS
OF HARVEST

IN THE LAST 2 YEARS.

ALL CRIMES?

ANYTHING. VIOLENT CRIMES,

BREAK-INS, WHATEVER'S
IN THE SYSTEM.

I NEED TO BE ABLE TO
SHOW CATE SOME MUGSHOTS.

YOU GOT IT. ONE SCUMBAG
YEARBOOK COMING UP.

SO YOU THINK THEY'RE LOCAL?

THEY DUMPED CATE
84 MILES FROM HER HOME.

THE SHERIFF WHO FOUND HER
DIDN'T THINK THAT
SHE'D BEEN THERE LONG.

WITH THE UNSUBS'
HEAD START, THEY SHOULD
HAVE BEEN LONG GONE.

SO WE'RE ZEROING IN ON THEM.

POSSIBLY.

THEN WHAT'S WRONG?

I DON'T KNOW WHY
THEY LEFT HER ALIVE.

I'M GOING TO DO WHAT'S CALLED
A COGNITIVE INTERVIEW.

IT'S AS MUCH ABOUT
THE THINGS YOU SENSED

AS THE THINGS YOU SAW.

I'M SCARED.

I KNOW. THAT'S OK.

I'M RIGHT HERE WITH YOU.

I'M HERE ALL THE WAY.

NOW, I NEED YOU
TO CLOSE YOUR EYES.

OK.

WHAT IS THE FIRST THING
YOU REMEMBER?

[BREATH SOUND]

IT'S COLD.

Prentiss: YOU'RE OUTSIDE?

WHO'S THERE?

A MAN.
HE TOLD ME TO--

KEEP QUIET.

Prentiss: WHAT IS HE DOING?

HE'S HOLDING MY HAND.
IT HURTS.

HE'S WAITING
FOR SOMETHING.

WHAT DOES HE LOOK LIKE?

I DON'T WANT
TO BE HERE.

HE CAN'T HURT YOU,
I PROMISE. I'M RIGHT HERE.

TALL. DARK HAIR.
OLD.

OLD? OLD LIKE ME?

OLD LIKE MY DAD.

IS ANYONE ELSE THERE?

SOMEONE'S COMING! EMILY!

EMILY! EMILY, HELP ME!

OPEN THE TRUNK!

PLEASE HELP ME!

OK, IT'S OK.
I'M RIGHT HERE.

I PROMISE YOU
HE CANNOT HURT YOU.

IT'S OK.

IT'S OK.

SO HE PUT YOU
IN THE TRUNK OF THE CAR?

OPEN THE TRUNK!

[CATE SOBBING]

NO!

[CRYING]

Prentiss: HOW LONG
WERE YOU IN THERE?

I DON'T KNOW.
NOT LONG.

10 MINUTES.

WAS THE RIDE BUMPY
OR SMOOTH?

IT WAS SMOOTH.

I WANTED TO SCREAM,
BUT NO SOUND
WOULD COME OUT.

IT'S OK.

SO THE CAR STOPS,

AND THEY OPEN THE TRUNK.

WHAT DO YOU HEAR?

WIND. WIND THROUGH
THE TREES.

AND WHAT DO YOU SMELL?

COOKING.

ARE YOU INSIDE NOW?

THEY'VE TAKEN MY SHOES OFF.

THAT'S SO YOU WON'T RUN.

I WANT YOU TO LOOK DOWN
AT YOUR FEET

AND TELL ME WHAT
YOU'RE STANDING ON.

CARPET.

I'M IN A LITTLE ROOM.

WITH CLOTHES AND TINFOIL
ALL AROUND ME.

WHAT ELSE?

[TINKLING]
I--I HEAR BELLS.

WHAT KIND OF BELLS?

SMALL.

LIKE A FAIRY.

EVERY TIME THEY RING,
THE MAN SAYS SOMETHING
TO THE BOY.

THE BOY?

HE'S STANDING
RIGHT NEXT TO YOU.

HOW OLD IS HE?

I'M 9.

ALMOST 10.

PUYULE, COME HERE.

HIS PARENTS WANT ME
TO PLAY WITH HIM.

HIS PARENTS?

EMILY,
I DON'T WANT TO GO.

I DON'T WANT TO GO.

NO! DON'T MAKE ME GO!

EMILY, NO! EMILY!

SHH, SHH, SHH.
EMILY!

IT'S OK, I'M RIGHT HERE.

IT'S OK. IT'S OK.

CATE, OPEN YOUR EYES.

YOU DID A REALLY GOOD JOB.

OK.

MR. SCHEUREN, YOU HAVE
AN INCREDIBLY STRONG
LITTLE GIRL.

DID HE TOUCH HER?

NO, NO.
NOT IN THAT WAY, NO.

THANK GOD.

SHE WAS TAKEN
BY A FAMILY.

A FAMILY?

PARENTS AND A LITTLE BOY
ABOUT HER AGE.

THEY TOOK HER
FROM HER HOUSE

IN A CAR
AND THEN INTO AN RV.

A SHORT RIDE ON A ROAD

AND THEN INTO
A WOODED AREA.

SHE SAY ANYTHING ELSE?

SHE SAID THE MOTHER
CALLED THE BOY PUYULE,

WHICH I THINK IS
A ROMANIAN TERM
OF ENDEARMENT.

I KNOW I USED TO HEAR IT
WHEN MY MOM WAS POSTED
OVERSEAS.

GET ROSSI AND MORGAN
ON THE CLOSEST RV PARKS.

OK.

WHAT ARE WE
LOOKING AT HERE?

I HAVE NO IDEA.

MOST PEOPLE PAY IN CASH.
WE DON'T HAVE MUCH
IN THE WAY OF RECORDS.

MA'AM, THIS WAS A FAMILY--

MOTHER, FATHER, SMALL BOY.

THEY WOULD HAVE
KEPT TO THEMSELVES
AND THEN LEFT ABRUPTLY.

YOU JUST DESCRIBED
MOST OF MY BUSINESS.

THE SON WOULDN'T
HAVE MINGLED
WITH OTHER CHILDREN.

HE WOULD HAVE BEEN
TIGHTLY GUARDED
BY HIS PARENTS.

SORRY.
I WISH I COULD HELP.

THE FAMILY WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT IS EASTERN EUROPEAN.

THEY MAY HAVE SPOKEN
SOME FOREIGN WORDS
TO EACH OTHER.

THEY IN SOME KIND
OF TROUBLE?

YOU REMEMBER THEM.

WELL, YOU CAN IMAGINE

I DON'T GET A LOT OF PEOPLE
SPEAKING FOREIGN AROUND HERE.

WHAT CAN YOU TELL US
ABOUT THEM?

NOT MUCH. THE HUSBAND
WAS REAL BUSINESSLIKE.

WIFE WAS NICE, PRETTY.
SON WAS QUIET.

YOU DIDN'T TAKE DOWN
A LICENSE OR A CREDIT CARD?

LEFT IN THE MIDDLE
OF THE NIGHT
AND NEVER CAME BACK.

AND I WOULDN'T HAVE
THOUGHT TWICE ABOUT IT

IF I DIDN'T HAVE TO CLEAN UP
THE CAMPSITE FROM ALL THE GLASS.

GLASS?

ALL OVER THE GROUND.

ALMOST LIKE THEY DID IT
ON PURPOSE.

CAN YOU SHOW US
WHERE THEY PARKED?

I TOLD YOU, YOU'RE NOT
GONNA FIND NOTHIN'.

I CLEANED IT UP.

WELL, THANK YOU.

MM-HMM.

JORDAN WAS RIGHT,
YOU KNOW,

ON THE PLANE.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

WELL, WE HIDE
BEHIND LANGUAGE.

WE DON'T TALK ABOUT
THE UGLINESS WE SEE.

ROSSI, WE TALK ABOUT IT
EVERY DAY.

NO. WE TALK FACTS.

SIGNATURE, M.O., PATHOLOGY.

WHAT ARE YOU GETTING AT?

WE'RE WORKING A CASE
WHERE A FAMILY

IS GROOMING THEIR SON
TO KILL.

THEY'RE NOT JUST
MURDERING PEOPLE.

THEY'RE STEALING CHILDREN,
POISONING MINDS.

WHERE'S THE HORROR?

WE CAN'T DO THIS JOB
IF WE LET IT GET TO US.

EXACTLY.

DEREK.

IS IT A MATCH?

WHICH MEANS
THE RV PARK OWNER WAS RIGHT.

THEY SPREAD IT ON PURPOSE.

SO EVERYTHING THEY DO
IS PART OF SOME RITUAL.

HAVE YOU EVER SEEN
ANYTHING LIKE THIS BEFORE?

A FAMILY THAT RITUALIZES
KILLING TOGETHER?
DEFINITELY NOT.

YOU KNOW, IF THE FAMILY
SPEAKS ROMANIAN,

THE SPREADING OF THE GLASS
MAKES SENSE.

IT'S AN EASTERN EUROPEAN
SUPERSTITION FOR GOOD LUCK.

SO THEY'RE ROMANIAN.

WE ALREADY KNEW THAT.

NOT JUST ROMANIAN.
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT PEOPLE

THAT ARE HIGHLY SUPERSTITIOUS
AND OBSESSED WITH RITUAL.

ROMANY.

GYPSIES.
ROMANY?

MORE ACCURATELY, SOMEONE

WHO HAS PERVERTED
ROMANY CULTURE.

CALL GARCIA.

THEY'RE TIGHT-KNIT AND NOMADIC
LIKE OUR UNSUBS,

BUT NOT USUALLY
PRONE TO VIOLENCE.

Garcia: HIYA, BABY.

HEY, BABY GIRL,
WE NEED TO TALK.

PG OR NC-17?

YOU'RE ON SPEAKERPHONE.

I CHARGE EXTRA
FOR GROUPS.

WE NEED YOU TO RUN THROUGH
CRIMES SIMILAR TO THE HALE
MURDERS IN THE LAST 2 YEARS.

OH, I ALREADY DID THAT. ZIP.

GO BACK EVEN FURTHER,
GARCIA.

CROSS-REFERENCE
AGAINST ANY SMALL TOWNS

THAT HAVE HAD REPORTS
OF PETTY THEFT

ASSOCIATED WITH WAVES
OF ROMANY POPULATIONS
ENTERING THE AREA.

GYPSIES.
ROMANY?

AS IN "GYPSIES, TRAMPS,
AND THIEVES"?

EXACTLY.

OH, BLESS YOU ALL
FOR TURNING MY LIFE

INTO A CHER SONG.
YOU'LL HAVE IT
NEARLY IMMEDIATELY.

YOU'RE THE BEST.

YOU NEED TO GET YOUR MEN
TOGETHER RIGHT NOW.

WHY IS THAT?

'CAUSE WHATEVER RITUAL THESE
PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO PLAY OUT,

WE KNOW CATE HALE
DIDN'T FIT THEIR NEEDS.

WHICH MEANS
THEY'LL HAVE TO TRY AGAIN.

IT'S TOO SOON.

HE TURNS 10 IN A WEEK.

IT'S NOT SAFE.

YOU SEE ONE YOU LIKE?

[ENGINE STARTS]

SHE'S A FINE CHOICE.

THE UNSUBS WE'RE LOOKING FOR
ARE A FAMILY.

A FATHER, A MOTHER,
AND A SON,

APPROXIMATELY 10 YEARS OLD.

WE BELIEVE THEY'RE OF
ROMANIAN DESCENT.

THE FAMILY TRAVELS IN AN RV,
BUT THEY ALSO HAVE
ANOTHER VEHICLE

THAT THEY USE TO GO
BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN
CAMPSITES AND CITIES.

WE NEED YOU TO CALL
EVERY RV PARK IN THE AREA.

ALERT THE OWNERS TO BE
ON THE LOOKOUT FOR A FAMILY

THAT FITS THIS DESCRIPTION,
AS WELL AS A CAMPSITE

THAT MIGHT HAVE BROKEN GLASS
SCATTERED AROUND.

THE BREAKING OF THE GLASS

AND THE DISCARDING
OF CATE HALE

BECAUSE OF HER EPILEPSY
LEADS US TO BELIEVE

THAT THESE ARE HIGHLY
SUPERSTITIOUS PEOPLE

AND THAT THEY ARE PLAYING OUT
A VERY SPECIFIC RITUAL.

Rossi: THE FOCUS
OF THIS RITUAL
IS THE YOUNG GIRLS.

DO WE KNOW WHY?

NO. BUT WE DO KNOW
FROM THE LOCATION

OF CATE HALE'S HOUSE

THAT THEY DON'T COME ACROSS
THESE GIRLS BY ACCIDENT.

THEY STUDY.

THEY HUNT.

CATE'S FATHER SAID THAT SHE
LIKED TO GO TO THE MOVIES

AT THEIR LOCAL MULTIPLEX.
THAT'S A GOOD PLACE TO START.

ALSO LOOK AT
THE PARKS, MALLS.

CONCENTRATE ON THOSE
THAT ARE AN EASY DRIVE

FROM THE RV PARKS YOU LOCATE.

THIS FAMILY IS OUT THERE

AND THEY'RE LOOKING
FOR THEIR NEXT VICTIM.

YOU GUYS NEED TO SEE THIS
RIGHT NOW.

EXCUSE US.

WHAT'S GOING ON?

GARCIA, YOU STILL THERE?

PRESENT.

EXPLAIN WHAT YOU GOT.

OK, I WENT AHEAD
AND WENT FURTHER BACK

LOOKING FOR SIMILAR CASES

AND I MADE THE SEARCH
NATIONAL.

ALL THESE ARE HITS?

YEAH. THERE'S 30 OF THEM.

THEY GO AS FAR BACK
AS 1909.

RAPID CITY, SOUTH DAKOTA,
TAOS, NEW MEXICO,
GARY, INDIANA.

MY MAP IS LIT UP
LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE.

ALL THESE GIRLS WERE ABDUCTED
AND HAD THEIR PARENTS KILLED?

THE TIME BETWEEN THE KILLS
WAS LONG ENOUGH

AND THE REGIONS OF
THE COUNTRY SO SPREAD OUT

THAT IT NEVER SHOWED UP
AS SERIAL.

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?

I DON'T KNOW,

BUT IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S BEEN
GOING ON FOR GENERATIONS.

REID AND I WILL CHECK INSIDE.

Sheriff: WE'VE DOUBLED
OUR HIGHWAY PATROL SHIFTS

AND WE'VE GOT ROADBLOCKS
AT EVERY COUNTY LINE.

IS THERE A PICTURE
ON THE WIRE?

I PULLED ONE OUT OF
HER BEDROOM MYSELF.

THEY'RE BOUND TO HAVE
HOURS ON US.

THEY DIDN'T TRAVEL
THAT FAR LAST TIME.

THE PAST KILLINGS
HAVE BEEN YEARS APART.

WE GOT LUCKY WITH CATE HALE.

HER EPILEPSY SAVED HER LIFE.

IF THIS NEW GIRL
FITS THE UNSUB'S NEED,

WE MIGHT HAVE LOST OUR WINDOW
TO CATCH THEM FOR YEARS.

THIS IS WHAT I DON'T GET.

IN BOTH THIS HOUSE
AND THE HALES' HOUSE,

THE GIRLS' BEDROOMS
WERE CLOSEST TO THE EXIT.

I MEAN, THE UNSUBS ACTUALLY
HAD TO GO OUT OF THEIR WAY

TO KILL THE PARENTS
BEFORE ABDUCTING THE GIRLS.

I THINK IT WAS
A COUNTERMEASURE.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

THEY'VE BEEN DOING THIS
FOR YEARS

AND THEY'VE NEVER
BEEN CAUGHT. WHY?

THEY DISAPPEAR
IN THE DEAD OF NIGHT,

THEY HAVE A HEADSTART
ON THE COPS,

AND THEY DON'T KILL AGAIN
FOR YEARS.

EXACTLY. WHEN I WAS A COP,
I WOULD GET 10 CALLS A DAY

FROM PARENTS
IN CHILD ABDUCTIONS.

NOW, AS SAD AS THAT IS,
IF THE FAMILIES
DIDN'T STAY ON YOU,

AT A CERTAIN POINT,
OTHER CASES WOULD JUST
START TAKING PRIORITY.

SO WHAT ARE THEY DOING
WITH THESE GIRLS?

[CELL PHONE RINGS]

YEAH, WHAT DO YOU GOT,
BABY GIRL?

ARE YOU SITTING DOWN?

YOU'RE NOT GONNA
BELIEVE THIS.

WHAT'S WRONG?

I THINK I KNOW
WHAT THEY WERE DOING

WITH THE GIRLS.

GARCIA GOT A HIT
ON A HAIR FIBER

IN THE BLANKET
THE UNSUBS USED
TO WRAP CATE HALE.

SO WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?

IT BELONGED
TO KATHY GRAY.

WHY DOES THAT NAME
SOUND FAMILIAR?

SHE WENT MISSING IN 1971
AFTER HER PARENTS

WERE MURDERED.

SO YOU'RE TELLING ME
THIS LITTLE GIRL IS
NOW ONE OF OUR UNSUBS?

THAT'S WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE.

CALL HOTCH.
TELL HIM AND PRENTISS
NOT TO COME HERE

AND TO MEET US
AT THE STATION.

YOU OK?

YEAH. I JUST NEED
TO BUILD A THICKER SKIN.

YOU DON'T NEED TO DO
ANYTHING YOU DON'T WANT TO.

YOU UNDERSTAND?

SO THESE LITTLE GIRLS
GOT ABDUCTED

AND LATER KIDNAPPED
OTHER GIRLS AND KILLED
THEIR FAMILIES?

I THINK THAT'S
WHY THESE UNSUBS

PICK GIRLS THE SAME AGE
AS THE BOY.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

THEY'RE MAKING WIVES.

IT'S OK.

I KNOW WHAT
YOU'RE GOING THROUGH.

I UNDERSTAND.

I REALLY DO.

COME HERE. I'M GOING TO
TAKE THIS OFF YOU NOW.

OK?

AHH.

[SOBBING]

OHH...OHH...

COME HERE.

I WANT MY MOMMY.

NO, NO, NO,
EVERYTHING'S OK.

YOU'RE A PART
OF SOMETHING NOW.

[CRYING]

I WAS JUST LIKE YOU.

MM-HMM.

A WORKING THEORY FROM 1971

WAS THAT A TRANSIENT KILLED
THE FAMILY AND ABDUCTED
KATHY GRAY.

THEN ALL THE LEADS
WENT COLD.

HOW DO YOU WATCH YOUR FAMILY
GET MURDERED

AND THEN MAKE A LIFE
WITH THE PEOPLE WHO DID IT?

IT'S STOCKHOLM SYNDROME.

YOU ADAPT OR DIE.

AND NOW SHE'S TRAINING HER SON
TO BE A MURDERER.

AT A CERTAIN POINT, ONCE
TRADITIONS ARE HANDED DOWN

GENERATION AFTER GENERATION,
THERE IS NO RIGHT OR WRONG.

YOU SIMPLY ACCEPT
THE WAY THE WORLD WORKS.

THE ROMANY ARE A CLOSED
SOCIETY.

THE UNSUB SIMPLY TWISTED
AND DISTORTED TRADITIONS

TO BECOME ENTIRELY INSULAR.

ABDUCTION THE CHILDREN
KEEPS THE BLOODLINE PURE,

AND KILLING THE PARENTS
ENSURES THAT PEOPLE EVENTUALLY
STOP LOOKING FOR THEM.

WE GOT A REPORT
OF AN RV ON FIRE ABOUT
20 MILES FROM HERE.

DAVE, YOU, REID, AND MORGAN
GO CHECK IT OUT.

GARCIA, I NEED YOU TO DIGITALLY
ALTER KATHY GRAY'S PHOTOGRAPH

TO SIMULATE WHAT SHE WOULD
LOOK LIKE TODAY.

CONSIDER IT SIMULATED.

THANKS.

Sheriff: IT WAS STARTED
LESS THAN AN HOUR AGO,
SO THEY CAN'T BE FAR.

IT LOOKS LIKE THEY LEFT
ALMOST EVERYTHING.

THE GOT THE GIRL
THEY WANTED.
THEY'RE STARTING OVER.

LOOK AT THE CLOTHES.

MOST OF THEM STILL HAVE
THE STORE SENSORS ON THEM.

SO HOW'D THEY GET THEM
PAST SECURITY SCANNERS?

EXCUSE ME?
TINFOIL.

CATE HALE REMEMBERS
BEING LOCKED IN A CLOSET

SURROUNDED BY CLOTHING
AND TINFOIL.

SHOPLIFTERS USE TINFOIL
TO LINE THEIR BAGS
AND NEGATE SECURITY ALARMS.

MAKES SENSE. A LOT OF ROMANY
MAKE THEIR LIVING

AS PETTY THIEVES.

IT ALSO EXPLAINS
THE BELLS SHE HEARD.

CATE SAYS SHE REMEMBERS
HEARING THE SOUND OF BELLS,

FOLLOWED DIRECTLY BY THE FATHER

TALKING TO THE SON.
I THINK THAT'S PROBABLY

WHAT THE MANNEQUIN'S FOR.

SCHOOL OF THE 7 BELLS.

YOU DRESS A MANNEQUIN,
YOU LINE A SUIT WITH 7 BELLS.

IF YOU CAN PICK HIS POCKET
WITHOUT A BELL RINGING,

YOU'RE READY TO WORK A CROWD.

SO WE KNOW HOW
THEY MAKE THEIR MONEY.

THAT'S NOT ALL WE KNOW.

THESE UNSUBS ARE GUIDED
ENTIRELY BY RITUAL.

THEY ABDUCTED LYNN ROBILLARD
AND KILLED HER FAMILY

IN AN AREA THAT THEY KNEW
WAS SURROUNDED WITH POLICE
AND THE FBI.

THEY HAD TO.
THEY CAN'T DEVIATE.

WE ALSO KNOW
THAT THEY'RE STARTING OVER.

WHICH MEANS THEY'RE
GONNA NEED SOME MONEY.

WHERE'S THE CLOSEST
SHOPPING MALL?

ABOUT 15 MILES FROM HERE.

HEY, HOTCH, WE KNOW
WHERE THEY'RE GOING.

FOCUS ON THE HIGH-END
DEPARTMENT STORES.
THEY'RE BIGGER TARGETS.

MOM.

IS THIS YOU?

[ALARM SOUNDS]

MA'AM!

HOLD IT! POLICE!

SET THOSE BAGS DOWN,
RIGHT NOW.

KATHY GRAY!
TAKE THAT WOMAN!

I SAID PUT THE BAGS DOWN.

CUFF HER.

LET'S GO.

WHAT'S WRONG?

THEY'VE BEEN STEALING
FOR YEARS

AND THEY NEVER GET CAUGHT.

THIS WAS TOO EASY.

KATHY, I CAN'T HELP YOU

IF YOU'RE NOT GOING
TO BE HONEST WITH ME.

I ALREADY TOLD YOU,
I KILLED THEM.

YES.
ALL BY YOURSELF.

IT IS.
WELL, I KNOW
THAT'S NOT TRUE.

HOW DID YOU DO IT?
HOW DID YOU ABDUCT A CHILD

AND CONTROL TWO ADULTS
WHILE YOU SLIT THEIR THROATS?

OH, COME ON, YOU KNOW
SHE'S NOT RESPONSIBLE
FOR THIS.

I KNOW WE HAVE
A STRING OF BODIES,

AND SHE KNOWS WHERE
HER HUSBAND AND SON ARE.

YOU ARE THE VICTIM HERE.

NO, SHE'S NOT.

SHE KILLED INNOCENT PEOPLE.

HER FAMILY WAS MURDERED.

AND NOW SHE'S KILLING
OTHER PEOPLE'S.

KATHY,
THIS IS NOT YOUR FAULT.

MY NAME ISN'T KATHY.

IT'S SYLVIA.

NO, IT ISN'T.

YOUR NAME IS KATHY GRAY.

AND YOU WERE
A BEAUTIFUL LITTLE GIRL.

YOUR MOM AND DAD WERE MURDERED
AND YOU WERE KIDNAPPED.

DO YOU RECOGNIZE
YOURSELF THERE?

I'M SICK OF THIS!
Prentiss: YOU SEE?

THEN LEAVE US ALONE!

WHERE ARE YOUR HUSBAND
AND SON?!

LOOK AT ME, KATHY.
DON'T LISTEN TO HIM.

THEY STOLE YOUR LIFE.

LET ME HELP YOU
GET IT BACK.

THAT LITTLE GIRL
IS BETTER OFF WITH MY SON

THAN ANY MAN SHE COULD MEET
IN YOUR SOCIETY.

Prentiss: I'M SURE
YOU RAISED HIM VERY WELL.

TELL ME ABOUT YOUR OWN MOTHER.

I'VE ALREADY TOLD YOU
EVERYTHING.

I KILLED THEM, ALL BY MYSELF.

HOW'S IT GOING SO FAR?

THEY'RE TRYING TO CRACK HER
BY REMINDING HER OF THE GIRL
SHE USED TO BE.

I HOPE THIS GOOD COP/
BAD COP ROUTINE WORKS.

Rossi: IF HER FAMILY
GETS AWAY,

WE'VE LOST
THAT LITTLE GIRL FOREVER.

Hotch: YOU'RE LYING.

MY NAME ISN'T KATHY!
KATHY--

YES, IT IS.

YOUR NAME IS KATHY GRAY.

YOU'RE FROM VIENNA,
VIRGINIA.

TELL ME WHERE
YOUR HUSBAND AND SON ARE

SO I CAN HELP YOU
GET YOUR LIFE BACK.

WANT TO SEE WHAT YOU DID?
HEY, DON'T SHOW HER THOSE.

IF SHE KILLED THEM HERSELF,
SHE CAN SEE IT AGAIN.

SERIAL KILLERS LIKE
TO RELIVE THEIR CRIMES.

DID YOU KNOW THAT?

THIS IS GEOFF HALE.

HE DIED FROM A STRONG,
DECISIVE CUT.

I THINK THAT WAS
YOUR HUSBAND.

NANCY HALE, HER WOUND
WAS MORE TENTATIVE.

THIS WAS YOUR SON, RIGHT?

I'M SURE BY THE TIME
HE TEACHES HIS OWN SON
HOW TO KILL,

OK, STOP--
HIS HAND WILL BE STEADY.

THIS IS THE ROBILLARD FAMILY.

KATHY, YOU DON'T
HAVE TO LOOK AT THAT.

DO YOU WANT TO SEE SOME MORE?

I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT IS.

THEN LOOK CLOSELY!

YOU DON'T RECOGNIZE
YOUR OWN MOTHER AND FATHER?

[CRYING]

OH, PLEASE...

SEE? THIS IS
THE TENTATIVE CUT
YOUR FUTURE HUSBAND MADE

WHILE HE SLIT
YOUR MOTHER'S THROAT.

[WHIMPERS]

WHERE ARE YOUR HUSBAND
AND SON?

CATE HALE
IS ONLY ALIVE

BECAUSE OF YOU,
KATHY. ISN'T THAT--

[CRYING]

YOUR--YOUR HUSBAND
WANTED TO KILL HER,

NO.
AND YOU DIDN'T.

HOW DOES THAT
MAKE YOU FEEL?

[SNIFFLES]

TO KNOW THAT HE WAS
WILLING TO KILL

THAT LITTLE GIRL?

THAT HE WOULD HAVE BEEN
WILLING TO KILL YOU, TOO?

THEY MURDERED YOUR FAMILY,
KATHY,

AND THEY TOOK YOU IN,
BUT YOU WERE NEVER
REALLY ONE OF THEM.

NO.

YOU WERE JUST A BREEDER.

I WON'T BETRAY MY FAMILY.

YOUR LITTLE BOY IS ONLY 10.
THERE IS A CHANCE

HE COULD GET OUT OF CUSTODY
WHEN HE'S 18,

BUT THAT'S ONLY
IF WE GET TO HIM.

I LOVE MY FAMILY.

SHE'S READY.
THEN TELL US
WHERE YOUR SON IS

AND WE CAN ALL
HELP HIM TOGETHER.

[DOOR OPENS]

SCOTT WOODLAND,
ZANDER BLANCHARD...

OK, COME ON,
GIVE HER A SECOND.

MAX ESTEP,

CHIP JACKSON.

I DON'T KNOW WHO
THOSE PEOPLE ARE.

IT'S A LIST OF EVERY
KNOWN FENCE IN HUNTSVILLE.

AND YOU'RE GONNA TELL US
WHO YOUR HUSBAND
TOOK THE GOODS TO.

COLES RUDZINSKI, PETE SHERNIT,

COME ON, GIVE HER A MINUTE
TO DO THE RIGHT THING.

MATT THORNE, BRENT WOODHOUSE...

OK, I CAN'T STOP HIM,
KATHY. THIS IS IT.

THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE
TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT.

KEVIN EVERSON, MIKE FENNER,

STOP!
MORRIS COLLINS--

OK.
MORRIS COLLINS.

I WON'T TELL YOU.

YOU JUST DID.

THE BOY'S NOT WITH HIM.

WHERE ARE THE CHILDREN?

I'LL ONLY TELL YOU
IF YOU LET ME SEE MY SON.

[SIRENS]

FBI! HANDS IN THE AIR!

HANDS IN THE AIR!

GET ON YOUR KNEES!

DOWN ON THE GROUND! NOW!

YOU KNOW, WE GOT A LONG
LIST OF GIRLS TO GO
THROUGH WITH YOU.

IN HISTORY,
WARRIORS INVADED TOWNS,

KILLED THE MEN, WOMEN,
AND BOYS,

BUT KEPT THE GIRLS
FOR THEMSELVES.

YOU EXIST
BECAUSE YOUR ANCESTORS

DID WHAT WAS NEEDED
FOR YOU TO SURVIVE.

GET HIM OUT OF HERE.

YOU'LL NEVER FIND MY BOY!

WE ALREADY HAVE.

COME ON, COME ON.

Prentiss: KATHY.

IT'S JUST YOU NOW.

YOU GOT TO BE STRONG.

I LOVE YOU, PUYULE.

NU LE SPUNELOR DESPRE
FURITITAI.

WHAT DID YOU TELL HIM?

Prentiss: OK, KATHY, NO.

SHERIFF, GET THAT VIDEOTAPE.
WE NEED TO GET IT
TO A TRANSLATOR.

YOU GOT IT.

THE TRANSLATION SHOULD
BE HERE IN A FEW MINUTES.

GOOD.

THE LITTLE GIRL'S
AUNT AND UNCLE

ARE ON THEIR WAY HERE
FROM BIRMINGHAM.

THEY'LL BE HERE
IN A FEW HOURS.

AND ALSO,
I--I JUST SPOKE WITH JJ.

SHE'LL BE AT HER DESK
BY THE TIME WE GET BACK
TO QUANTICO.

SHE HAS 3 MORE WEEKS
OF MATERNITY LEAVE.

I KNOW, BUT SHE'S
DYING TO BE BACK.

AND, HONESTLY, I'M...

READY TO GET BACK
TO COUNTER-TERRORISM.

IT'S...WHERE I'M NEEDED.

THEY'RE LUCKY TO HAVE YOU.

MAY I SAY SOMETHING?

SURE.

THIS TEAM IS LIKE A FAMILY.

AND FAMILIES TAKE ON
THE TRAITS OF THEIR LEADERS.

YOU DON'T SHOW MUCH EMOTION.

MEANING WHAT?

I'VE SAT AT JJ's DESK

AND I'VE LOOKED AT
SOME OF THE WORST THINGS
I'VE EVER SEEN

JUST TRYING TO DO
HALF HER JOB.

I HOPE YOU DON'T
TAKE HER FOR GRANTED.

I DON'T.

[DOOR OPENS]

[DOOR CLOSES]

WE GOT THE TRANSLATION.

WHAT DID SHE SAY?

"DON'T TELL THEM
ABOUT YOUR BROTHERS."

HOW MANY BROTHERS
DO YOU HAVE?

Hotch: MARIO PUZO WROTE,

"THE STRENGTH OF A FAMILY,
LIKE THE STRENGTH OF AN ARMY,

IS IN ITS LOYALTY
TO EACH OTHER."

YOU'RE ALMOST 10.

YOU'RE BECOMING A MAN.

ARE YOU READY?

I LOVE YOU, PUYULE.

I LOVE YOU, TOO.
