Criminal Minds (2005–…): Season 8, Episode 21 - Nanny Dearest - full transcript

# Sunshine came softly
through my #

# Window today #

# Could have tripped out easy #

# But I... #

No!

Buddy, let's keep the water
in the tub, okay?

Five more minutes,

and then Mommy's got
to get ready for work.

Why did you always go to work,
Mommy?

Well, um, because there's people
out there that need my help.

But I will be back soon.



How many days?

I don't know, buddy.
I wish I did,

but I promise I will be back
as soon as I can.

And we always keep
our promises, right?

- Yeah. -Yeah. Okay, well,
then you need to promise

that you're gonna be a good boy
for Daddy while I'm gone.

Give me a high five.

Oh! -oh

We're gonna make
a preemptive trip

to Los Angeles. This UnSub kills
on the same date every year.

- Go ahead, Garcia. -Okay,
I present to you crime fighters

an oldie but not such a goodie.
I give you

Rachel Hughes,
Melissa Martinez, Tara Rios,

Diana Brooks
and Gloria Clemente.



You guys know the deets.
This is news to you, Blake.

Over the last five years, each
of these women have disappeared

from a park
off the California coast

from as far south as San Diego
and far north as San Francisco.

Each of them were nannies
who were kidnapped

- while watching kids.
Uh, thankfully,

each of the little ones
was returned to a church

or a hospital totally unharmed
within 24 hours.

But the nannies were found dead,
posed on park benches

in Los Angeles playgrounds.

One a year,
always on the same date.

May 13. The actual abduction
date varies from case to case,

but the UnSub goes
to great lengths to make sure

the bodies are found
that exact day.

All except victim number three,
Tara Rios.

- Somehow she managed to escape.
Garbage truck driver

found her passed out
in an alley in Hollywood.

She had no idea who took her
or where he held her.

Morgan and I questioned her,
even tried to do a cognitive,

but she was way too traumatized

to remember much
of anything at all.

- Clearly, she dissociated
from the event. -We've contacted

her several times
over the past few years

trying to get more info, but
she just refuses to talk to us.

Her reluctance isn't surprising.

Each of the victims was sexually
assaulted and tortured

with burning implements
for several days.

And then he drowned 'em in
scalding water when he was done.

But no matter
where he grabs them,

he always returns them to I.A.

Both the location and that date

obviously mean
something significant, but what?

May 13 is two weeks away.

Garcia, go ahead and alert
the press on the West Coast.

When we land in L.A., Morgan and
JJ will take the jet to Seattle

and make a personal plea
to Tara Rios.

Wheels up in 30.

Come on, you guys, wait up!

Okay, see you guys
next week. Bye.

Bye, Miss Gina.

I want to get
an ice cream first!

You hungry for lunch?

We could have
some mac and cheese.

Maybe you'll actually eat
your broccoli today.

Got your hands full, huh?

Cute. What is she? About two?

Yeah. Almost.

What's her name?

Phoebe.

Hi, Phoebe.
My daughter's almost eight.

- Enjoy your day.
- You, too.

It's okay, baby.

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

It's okay.

You shut your mouth.

Don't make me hurt the baby
instead.

Hi, Phoebe.

"Children are educated
by what the grown-up is

and not by his talk. "
Carl Jung.

Other than their occupation,

there's no connection
between these victims.

His need to commemorate
the anniversary

is what's behind it and whatever
message he's trying to send.

- And what exactly
is he trying to say? -JJ: Well,

whatever it is, this anniversary
date has to be associated

with some kind
of long-term stressor.

That date could be anything-

birthday, death date,
a traumatic event.

This first victim,
Rachel Hughes, was the only one

he both kidnapped and dumped
in Griffith Park.

Well, the first time is usually
the most significant.

News flash, my family.

And, oh, I wish
it was the good kind.

Another nanny and a kid
just disappeared in Los Angeles.

Her name is Gina Mendes.
She was watching a two-year-old

named Phoebe Payton.

Think that's our guy?

I'd bet on it.

Then he's ahead of schedule.

He's never abducted his victims
more than four days

before the anniversary date.

Phoebe's got asthma.

And she needs... regular
nebulizer treatments.

Gina always carries some,
but it won't... it won't last.

How long has Gina worked
for you?

About four years.

That's a long time.

Phoebe's barely two.

Yeah, we hired her
when we got pregnant.

The first time.

I'm sorry.
The first time?

I had a late miscarriage, and...

we had a stillbirth.

Gina stayed on.

You know, we were both...
pretty shook up,

and I travel a lot
for work, so...

she helped out around the house.

Gina doesn't just work for us.
She's like family.

She lost both of her
parents when she was a teenager.

So it's kind of like
we adopted her, in a way.

it's true, right? This man-

he always...
he always gives the kids back?

Yes. He has.

- And they're okay? He doesn't...
He's returned

all of the children, unharmed
in the first 24 hours.

Either to a church,
or to a hospital.

Oh, my God.

She needs her medicine.

She has asthma.

Please, let me help her!

Boo hoo hoo.

You all pretend to care,
but you just want

to save your own skin.

You're all the same.

She'll die.

She'll die
if you can't take the pain.

In their statements,

two of the other families
said the same thing

about their nannies.

"She was more
than just an employee. "

"She was almost like family. "

Well, it's not uncommon

to form that kind of bond
with your child's caregiver.

But what if the connection
that they have with the children

is what sparks
the UnSub's interest?

Maybe it's not just
about them being nannies.

He could be keying in
on the relationship itself.

And he would have to stalk them

and know their routines
well enough to be able

to pick up on that.
I'll have Reid and Rossi

retrace Gina's steps,
and we should interview

the victims' families again.

If he sticks to his schedule,
Phoebe could turn up soon.

Let's hope so.

Just talked to a bunch of
nannies over at the observatory.

They knew Gina and Phoebe.

Said they were here
every, uh, Tuesday and Thursday.

A regular schedule or routine

gives children
a sense of security.

Would make it easy
for him to stalk her.

He knew exactly
when she would be here.

She never made it
back to the car, which means

he grabbed her somewhere between
here and the observatory.

Broad daylight, public park,

LAPD regularly
patrolling the area.

This guy's got cojones.

Probably threatens the children

as a means to gain
the nanny's compliance.

Well, we know
he's got his own transport.

It's got to be a van or an SUV.

And he's patient.
He only kills once a year.

The rest of his time,
he's stalking or planning.

One thing's different, though.
He's back in Griffith Park.

Coincidence?

Griffith Park spans 4,310 acres,

making it one
of the largest urban parks

in all of North America.

Given its sheer size,

coincidence certainly is
a possibility.

But he's never repeated parks
before.

No, he hasn't.

More iced tea, please.

# Listen to what he says... #

Hey, Tara.

It's been a long time.

What are you guys doing here?

We need to talk to you.

Well, you should have
called me first.

We did.

- You never called us back.
- You have

no right just-just showing up
to my work like this?

- We apologize, but...
Can't you just

talk to my doctor?

He knows everything
that's going on with me.

The UnSub took another nanny
today, Tara.

Her name's Gina Mendes.

Stop. Stop it.

I don't want to know her name.

Tara, we really need your help.

# It's alive when you're in it
but wait just a minute... #

I already told you guys
everything that I can remember.

Tara, that was three years ago.

We're hoping that you'll give it
another try.

Your memories aren't lost.

They're just... locked up.

We know this is a lot.

- -But we'll be
with you the whole time.

The little girl
who was with Gina-

her name is Phoebe.

And she has asthma, and
she needs special medication.

And... and Gina...

right now, she is going through
exactly what you went through.

Which means,
if we don't find her,

she's only got two weeks
to live.

Tara?

Tara?

Please... help us.

Here you go, honey.

No.

LAPD's got every church

and hospital in the city
covered. So far, nothing.

Maybe the police presence
scared him off.

- They're only using
plain-clothes. -ROSSI: Even so,

this guy has evaded arrest
for this long.

He's probably got
a nose for cops.

I don't know.
He's a creature of habit.

Veering off his schedule would
be a big departure in his M.O.

He's already veering
from his schedule, though.

I mean, he abducted Gina earlier
than expected.

He never keeps the children

longer than 24 hours.
He's had Phoebe for almost 28.

Wonder what that means for Gina.

Will he stick
to his schedule

- with her?
He returned

all five of the other kids.

Why is he holding Phoebe?

We should consider
the implications

if he doesn't bring her back.

- Agent Hotchner?
- Yes.

Have you heard anything?

No, nothing yet. I'm sorry.

So... so what now?

We keep pursuing
the investigation,

we leave no stone unturned.

But you said, he-he always gives
the kids back within 24 hours.

- It's-it's been almost 30.
That's true.

That's been his pattern, yes.

So where's Phoebe?

We're trying to figure it out.

Have you ch-checked
with all the hospitals?

Yes, we have.
- Well, what about the churches?

We...
- She could be there.

We're covering churches, too,
I promise you.

So you just don't know
a damn thing?

- Mrs. Payton...
- You should be out there

right now.
Even my husband is out there

looking, putting up flyers.

How can you be looking
for her from in here?

I understand what
you're going through.

No, you don't understand
anything!

No, I actually do.

Maybe we can

find a place
where we can talk.

Agents, I'd like to help,

but I can't disclose the details
of Tara's therapy.

Frankly, I'm surprised she gave
me permission to talk to you.

Dr. Berneman,
Tara's the only victim

who has seen this man
and survived.

There's two lives at stake here.

We're just trying
to get some insight.

Well, I can tell you this.

When Tara first came to me,

she was suffering
from extreme PTSD.

For lack of a better clinical
term, she was a hot mess.

She would scratch at the burn
scars on her arm till they bled.

She had insomnia,

and when she did sleep,
she had nightmares.

For a time,
she was even suicidal.

I noticed she repeatedly snapped

at a-a hair tie
around her wrist.

That's a form
of aversion therapy.

When negative feelings about
the event start to take over,

she snaps the rubber band.

- Helps her keep control.
Call it

a supplement
to a pretty strict regimen

that helps her keep control.

But she's got a long way to go.

Are you telling us
that we shouldn't be trying

- to question her? -BERNEMAN:
I'm telling you, we've worked

very hard for two years.

Tara's finally
approaching normal.

She's got a job, she paints,

she even had a date last week.

I would hate
to put her through anything

that might set her back.

All right, Doctor.

Well, we appreciate you taking
time out of your vacation.

Feel free to call

if you need anything else.

Thank you, Doctor.

Looks like we may need
to give Tara her space.

Oh, it's too bad, because
she's the only real lead we got.

Oh, another dead end.

I spoke to the families
of the previous victims,

and they had nothing to add
to their original statements.

Why hasn't he returned
Phoebe Payton yet?

There has to be a reason.

I hate to state the obvious,
but maybe he killed her.

But why take the time,
effort and risk

to return all the other kids
just to kill this one?

You know, she could have
succumbed to an asthma attack.

Or we're looking at this wrong.

What if he's finally
found the kid

he's really been looking for?

But we profiled him as a sexual
sadist with rage issues.

The children have no value
to him.

It's the nannies he wants.

That first part of that
still could be right.

Clearly, he's a sadist.

But what if the kids
are more valuable

to him than the nannies?

Then the nannies
are collateral

damage from his hunt for
what he really wants: a child.

Somehow, Phoebe Payton
fits a bill.

That explains why he abducted
her earlier than expected.

Well, why wouldn't he just grab
the children, then?

Because he's attracted
to the dynamic

between nanny and the child.

It could also be

a forensic countermeasure.
If he only took the children,

he would have left
witnesses behind.

So, what's so special
about Phoebe?

What makes her different
from the others?

The asthma.

- -Hallelujah.
This place is dead.

Give me a job.
# Give me a job! #

Garcia, I need you
to check the health records of

all five kids
that the UnSub returned.

Any special needs,
any medications.

Okeydokey artichokey.

Uh...

Every one healthy as a horse.

That's super healthy,
clean bill.

- Nothing.
- Thanks, Garcia.

Really? That's all?

But I have so many skills
to help. Please? Hello?

If his ultimate objective
is the kid,

then, he may abandon
his schedule all together.

Which means Gina may not have
until May 13.

We need a targeted
media strategy.

I'll go get Hotch.

We believe we're looking
for a Caucasian male,

who's almost certainly a
resident of Los Angeles County.

As you know, he operates

on a strict yearly schedule,

which takes patience
and discipline.

Which leads us to believe

he's in his late thirties
or forties.

He abducts

his victims from public
parks in broad daylight,

which tells us
that he's socially competent,

fits in,
appears non-threatening.

In other words, he's someone
you'd never notice.

Do you think

he'll abduct more victims
anytime soon?

It's possible, though,

we find it highly doubtful.

His schedule seems
to be very important to him.

Then why hasn't he returned
the baby yet?

We think he suffers from a rare
psychological disorder

called paternal desire.

Like its sister disorder,
maternal desire,

it stems from a deep-seated
need to fill an emotional void

left by the loss of a child.

We think
that loss may be related

to some kind of long-term
stressor in his life.

This explains why he exhibits
so much rage and violence

against the nannies
that he abducts.

He's shown little mercy
toward his adult victims,

but he's been compassionate
to the children.

And it's that sense
to which we'd like to appeal.

At this point,

I'd like to introduce Shane
and Melody Payton.

These are Phoebe's parents
and Gina's employers.

Mr. and Mrs. Payton.

Please, if you're watching this,

or if you know the man
who did this,

please contact the authorities.

Phoebe's just...

She's just a baby.

And our nanny, Gina-

she is a good person.
She doesn't deserve this.

Just do the right thing
and let them go. Please.

Phoebe has severe asthma, and

she needs this medication.

She can't breathe without it.

Please let them go.

Give our baby back!

- -HOTCH
We've issued an Amber Alert

and set up a toll-free hotline.

If anyone has
any information at all...

Yeah, this is Derek Morgan.

WOMAN We have just
heard from Agent Hotchner

- from the FBI...
- Yes, uh... Can you hold on?

WOMAN... that an
Amber Alert has been issued...

Just a second.

Go ahead.

Really?

That would be great.

Okay. Thank you.

That was Tara Rios.

What happened?

She wants to help us.

You're kidding.

She saw the press conference.

JJ, good work.
It was your idea to go national.

I'm gonna get 'em
to turn us around.

I just wanted to let you know
that we've convinced a witness

to come forward.
She's a victim who had escaped.

I realize it's not the news

you're hoping for,
but even the smallest

piece of information could
help us find Phoebe and Gina.

In the meantime, it would be
a good idea if you could

go home and get some rest.

It would do you some good.

Yeah, no.
No, we're not going anywhere.

So, what makes you think
that it's gonna work this time?

Well,

we're gonna try something new.

It's a psychotherapy
called "EMDR."

It stands for

"Eye Movement Desensitization
and Reprocessing. "

It's very effective with PTSD
and memories

that have been buried
especially deep.

What if I can't? What if there's
really nothing in there?

There's evidence that suggests

we process intellectual material

in a different part of the brain
than emotional material.

EMDR helps link the two.

Tara, we will be with you
the whole time.

And you're gonna help us
catch this guy.

I promise you.

How does this EMDR thing-
how does it work?

First, we'll start by putting
you in a safe place, mentally,

by asking you to focus
on a particular image

or memory that makes you happy.

Then we'll start
asking questions.

And then when you're ready,

we'll have you follow a light
that moves side to side.

So, can you tell us about Jake?

He was adorable.

Big blue eyes.

He was such a good boy.

When was the last time
you saw him?

That day, the day that we got
taken, we went to the park

like we always did.

Jake loved the park.

What's the first thing
that comes to mind

when you think about that day?

It was chilly.
I forgot my coat.

What can you tell us

about the abduction itself?

It-it... it all happened
so quickly.

It's okay. Take your time.

A man came up to us.

I think...

I think he had a leash
in his hand.

Did he have a dog?

Yeah.

Yeah, he did.

That's good.

You didn't remember that before.

Do you know what kind of dog?

No, but it was... it was big.

I didn't...
I didn't want him near Jake.

He said...

He said
Jake reminded him of his...

of his baby sister.

Baby... sister.

You said before,
he was a white guy.

Can you see his face?

No.

But he has a gun, and he's...

he's pointing it at Jake.

Oh, God.

Calm down.

Just concentrate on the light.

What happened next?

He hit me.

In my face...
then I fell, and...

Jake was crying, and...
I couldn't help him.

I couldn't do anything.

I... I think I passed out.

I- I-

Burning...

...woke me up.

He was using cigarettes.

I was tied to a bed.

He kept saying...

"Can you take it?, " and he said
if I couldn't take it

that he was gonna
do it to Jake.

Oh, my God.

Okay, you're safe now, Tara.

Jake- he won't stop crying.

Help me. Help me, please.

He says he needs help.

You-you actually heard
the word "help?"

Yeah.

That can't be Jake, Tara.

He's too little to talk.

Help me. Please help me.

No, it was a woman.

A woman? What woman?

I don't know.

Help me, please!

I don't know. I...

I need to stop now.
I need to stop!

How you doing?

Need anything?

How-how can that stuff

be hidden in my head

all these years?

I feel like I'm going crazy.

You're not.

It's... it's just your...

brain's way of protecting you.

That's them, isn't it?

That little girl's parents?

Are they okay?

Not so much.

You have kids?

Yeah. Yeah, a little boy, Henry.

How old is he?

He's four and a half.

Oh, that's a great age.

Yeah.

Who's-who's with him now?

Uh, well, uh, right now,
his dad is at work, so...

he's with... his nanny.

This is working.

But we got to keep going.

The answers are in there.
I know it.

But we're running out of time.

Look, I made you a promise
that we would catch this guy.

Please, help me keep it.

Okay, Tara,
I want you to focus

on the screams of that woman.

Where were you
when you heard them?

Help me!
No.

Help me, please!

Help!

It was when he was burning me.

Did you ever see her?

No.

No.

Wait.

Oh, my God. The van.

Van.

She was there, too.

Can you describe her?

There was blood in my eyes.

Um, she was...

she was wearing a blue shirt.

And was that the only time
that you saw her?

I got out.

I wanted to search for Jake,

and I couldn't hear
her cry anymore.

I saw her... and I saw her

in the bathroom...

tied to a sink.

Help me!

She had blond hair.

And I left...

Roscoe, shut up!

I left them there.

I left them both there.

C- Can you think of anything else

about her? Her-her name maybe?

Can you take it, Alison?

Alison.

Her name was Alison.

That's what he would call her
when he was hurting her.

So, if this mystery blonde in
blue was in the van with Tara,

that means the UnSub probably
grabbed them on the same day.

He's never taken more than

one woman at a time, though.

- Maybe she wasn't part of
the plan. -BLAKE: JJ and Morgan

are still working with Tara.

She thinks she might be able
to describe the UnSub

- enough to get a composite
sketch. -

What have you got, Garcia?

What I've got is
a promotion coming

'cause damn, I am good.

A very blonde Alison Astor

was reported missing
three years ago.

Now, she's from Dallas,
but she never

returned home
from a business trip

she took to Los Angeles.

She was single,
she worked as a sales rep

for a pharmaceutical company.

She was an avid runner.
She even qualified

for the Boston Marathon,
which is not easy.

All right, call
the coroner's office and see

if there are any unidentified
female remains

from the last three years.

Um, sir, you're talking to me.
That's already done. It's I.A.,

so there are 12 unidentified
female bodies, but only one

with blonde hair,
wearing a blue shirt.

And the coroner
is expecting you.

And you're welcome.

Sorry about the wait.
She was way in the back.

Her possessions were up
in storage.

Here's the report.

She was scheduled
to be buried soon.

Not every day we I.D.
one of our Jane Does.

You were unable to determine
an exact cause of death.

Inconclusive.
She was too decomposed.

Found in a shallow grave up in
a remote part of Griffith Park.

I'd say

she was out there at least
a year before she was found.

Critters must have got
to her, too.

Yeah, they went to town.

You'll see bite marks
on her tibia,

fibula and her radius, too.

Something weird on this leg.

These bite marks here-
too big for anything

out in Griffith Park.

I'd say
that's from a very large dog.

One pushing 100 pounds or so.

Let me help her.

The nebulizer's in my bag.

The steam won't work.

She needs her medicine!

He puts the nannies on display,

but he hides Alison Astor
in a remote shallow grave.

Before Alison started
in pharmaceuticals,

she was a corpsman in the navy.

She probably witnessed
Tara's abduction

and tried to intervene.

Makes sense.

She was trained to help people.

He hid her body
because Tara escaped.

And the anniversary means
too much to him to have Alison's

body be the one
to be discovered.

Well, we got
our composite sketch.

Hey, guys?

Check this out.

He grabbed
his first victims from here.

He abducted Gina
and Phoebe from here.

He buried Alison Astor up here.

And down here
in Hollywood is where

Tara Rios was found passed out.

We can give it another try,
but she has no idea

where she escaped from
or how long she was wandering.

I'm actually more intrigued

by what lies
between these four points. Look.

Dog parks. Two of them.

She did say he had a dog.

And there were bite marks
on Alison Astor's leg.

Dog owners tend
to be very regimented.

They follow a strict schedule.

And being out
with his dog would allow him

to inconspicuously
stalk his prey.

Those parks are
extremely social.

Someone out there had
to see this guy.

Let me help her.

Shut... up.

Don't pretend that you care.

Do whatever you want to me,

but please, she'll die.

# A la nanita nana #

# Nanita ella, nanita ella #

# Mi nina tiene sueno
bendito sea #

# Bendito sea. #

Shh, shh. Good girl.

Give her back now.

What?

She's mine. Give her to me.

No.

- Roscoe, up.
- No!

I'm not finished with you yet!

Don't hurt her!

Morgan, you and JJ canvas
the north end of the park.

We'll take the south.

We should make sure
LAPD covers playgrounds

and walking trails, as well.

I suggest we go as far west
as Runyon Canyon.

- A lot of real estate.
It'll be

- nightfall soon. -MORGAN:
If this guy is planning

on keeping the kid,
there's a good chance

he won't even stick
to his anniversary date.

The FBI

has released a composite sketch
of the so-called Nanny Killer,

who's suspected of abducting

and brutally murdering
four young women

up and down the California
coast over the past six years.

His latest abductees-

23-year-old Gina Mendes

and two-year-old Phoebe Payton,
both from Los Angeles,

still are missing.

If you have any information
regarding their whereabouts,

please call the Amber Alert
hotline,

or the LAPD immediately.

Yeah, that kind of looks
like Johnny.

Do you know him?

Yeah. I mean, not really.
Just from up here, but hang on.

Hey, baby, come here for a sec?

He's up here more than I am.

- What's up? -Uh, these guys are
with the FBI.

Take a look at this.
That look like Johnny to you?

Kind of, yeah.

Do you know where
we can find him?

No idea. I used
to see him up here all the time.

Haven't seen him
in a few days, though.

What kind of dog does he have?

A big old Rottweiler, Roscoe.

He plays with Daisy.

Do you know Johnny's last name?

No. Just Johnny.

- Sorry.
- Is he in some kind of trouble?

Oh, man of my favorite
fantasies, what you got?

I need you to do
your thing, mama. Look up every

Johnny, John or Jonathan in
Los Angeles with a dog license.

Okay, there are...

Does it specify
what breed of dog?

Yes, unless
they're a mixed breed.

Are there any Rottweiler's
on that list?

- Not a one.
Oh, hang on.

Not everybody bothers
to get a license.

What about vet records.
- What about 'em?

Find all the veterinarian
offices

within a ten-mile radius
of Griffith Park.

This guy's got a Rottweiler.

Okay, there are...

14 vet offices.
There are a lot of records.

It's gonna take me a sec.
Hold up. I'll hit you back.

Who's a good boy?

Come here. Turn around.

Good boy. Go.

I got a hit.
There's a Jonathan Ray Covey

who owns a 110-pound Rottweiler
named Roscoe.

I've got a home
and a work address.

Well, who's closer to what?

You're closer to home,

which is right next to Griffith
Park. You're right there!

Go! Go!
I'll let Hotch know!

# Sunshine came softly
through my a-window today #

# Could have tripped out easy #

# But I've, I changed my ways #

# It'll take time, I know it #

# But in a while #

# You're gonna be mine,
I know it #

# We'll do it in style... #

I thought I told you
to get to bed!

You're a bad boy!

You don't care about
that baby, just admit it.

# We stood on a beach
at sunset #

# Do you remember when? #

Just say the word.

- No!
- Save yourself.

Admit it, and I'll stop.

Never

You'll break.

They all do.

I got the skinny
on this Covey dude.

He's 40 years old, he lives

in the same house
he grew up in, which

he inherited from his mother
when she died ten years ago.

That's why he's so connected
to Griffith Park.

He probably grew up going there.

How'd his mother die, Garcia?

Heart attack.
Same thing with his dad

back in '86, and
here's something super sad.

Uh, when Covey was seven,

his two-year-old sister Amanda
was drowned.

- How?
Bathtub.

Uh, there was a nanny watching,
a Griselda Vasquez.

There was a full investigation.
The death was ruled accidental.

She was cleared
of any wrongdoing.

Covey must have blamed her
for his sister's death.

Uh, guess what date she died.

May 13.

Winner, winner, chicken dinner.

And here's another piece
of interest.

Baby sister had asthma.

So this isn't paternal desire.

This is fraternal desire.

Oh, and peep this.

Griselda Vasquez-
she lost her battle

with breast cancer
six years ago.

That's when he killed
his first victim.

That must have been his trigger.

He never got his chance
to take revenge.

Just give in.

FBI!

Jonathan Ray Covey?!
It's the FBI!

Sister's room.

Roscoe, attack!

- Drop the weapon!
- Roscoe, man the door!

Drop the weapon!

Jonathan, let her go!
She is not Griselda!

Griselda?! That bitch lied
and got away with it!

She didn't care about us!

She just wanted
to save her own ass!

But that girl right there is
not your nanny!

Don't hurt that dog!

Jonathan, let her go!

He's going out front!

Stop!

Stop right there!

We're good.

- You all right?
- Yeah.

It's a nice shot.

Agent Jareau?

Tara, what are you doing here?

I asked them to bring me.

Oh, baby. Oh, baby!

Oh! Oh, God!

We got him.

He's dead, and we saved Phoebe
and Gina, too.

You did it.

It's over.

I want to see his body.

Guys? Yeah.

That's enough.

Okay, babe. Okay.

Excuse me?

You're Tara?

Thank you!

Wow. I missed you, too.

You're gonna wake up
