LEWIS: Looks like there's been an
active killer up here for decades.
Some of the lab techs are starting
to call this UnSub "Sicarius."
ALVEZ: We thought these
kill kits were connected
the shipping container, Rory
Gilcrest, our spinal cord guy.
Now we have our smoking gun.
PRENTISS: The UnSub gathered
followers that he's now activating.
This is a network.
ROSSI: Tyler Green is our only lead
on the most elusive killer in 15 years.
REBECCA: If this UnSub has some
form of IED, he's going to use it.
JENNIFER: He's heading into the park.
Rossi, if you don't pull your
agents away from that target,
I will relieve you from
your role as BAU team leader.
I never wanted it in the first place.
[GRUNTS]
Get off of me!
BAILEY: You need to
find a new team leader.
- I found someone.
- Who?
Me.
Why would a serial killer
be carrying a fake bomb?
That's your sister. She
went missing 15 years ago.
You didn't join that
network. You infiltrated it.
- To find Sicarius.
- You people
ruined
everything.
- How you doing, Hal?
- Come on, Voit. Where's your school spirit?
[GRUNTS]
You look a lot like my next door

So, 24 hours ago, Tyler Green
looked like one of our so-called
Sicarius' devoted acolytes,
but now it just looks
like a misguided vigilante.
What do we know about his dead sister?
Well, according to DC Metro Police,
Green's sister, Alison,
was reported missing
back in the fall of 2007.
She was 23 years old.
She had a 2-year-old
son, and she was last seen
leaving her apartment
with her new boyfriend.
His name was either Louis or Lee.
Neither was ever seen again.
So, we haven't identified her
as one of the shipping
container victims?
No. No, we haven't.
And as far as the DC
police are concerned,
Alison Green remains a missing person.
But Green is certain
Sicarius killed her.
Yeah, but maybe because
Sicarius told him he killed her.
I mean, Green's drone spotting
was for army intelligence,
and their psy-ops training
would've certain given him the skill set
he needed to infiltrate that network.
To gain Sicarius' trust and
get him to share his history,
- his secrets
- His kill kits.
And now, we need Green to share
everything he knows with us.
Except that our profile of Green says
that his "defiance of authority,"
which is what got him
kicked out of the military,
means that he'd rather
do time than talk to us.
True. [SIGHS]
- But
- But what?
There is someone who might
be able to get him to open up.

Look, Tyler, do you actually think
that you're gonna get out of here
and get another shot
at that Sicarius guy?
'Cause it is not gonna happen.
And the only way you
might not spend the next,
I don't know, 25 to
life in a federal prison,
is if you start sharing
what you know about him.
So
♪
All righty then.

Good talk.

I told you. I can't even blame him.
He can feel the grudge I
feel radiating off my body.

You know, the one
benefit of the lockdown
I have perfected the
LaMontagne frittata.
Oh, so my mom wants to know
if she can take the boys
to Six Flags this afternoon.
Well, you know what that means.
They're probably gonna have
to stay there one more night.
You know, I can't
tell you how happy I am
that my mom decided to move closer.
It's not exactly how
you felt when she
I was wrong.
- I'm so sorry, what?
- What was that?
You heard me, LaMontagne.
You wanna take a picture of
it so you can cherish it later?
[CHUCKLES]
Mmm.
Okay, yeah, no, that

No. We're We're all good.
Uh, let's get this over with.
PRENTISS: I'd like to think
you spending the night here
instead of a hotel is progress.
Would you believe me if I told you
that I didn't mean to fall asleep here?
I believe you. But will Mom?
[CHUCKLES]
I heard what happened with Bailey.
Let me worry about him.
You took a bullet for me.
You have enough on your
plate as Section Chief
without having to look over my shoulder.
Would you believe me if I told you
that I'm only doing it
to get my old office back?
Really, you should check it out.
It's got a treadmill and everything.
- I will learn to play well with others.
- Don't you dare.
Anyway, forensics came back
on the incendiaries from the kill kit.
There are no prints, no DNA,
but the pH in a soil deposit
says the foot locker was
buried for roughly five years.
Hmm, another "paintbrush."
But what about, um
The CCTV footage that Green hacked into.
It revealed there were no other
persons of interest in the area
at the time of his arrest,
which doesn't mean he wasn't there.
He might have figured out
how to avoid the cameras.
It still doesn't make sense to me.
What if he deliberately set up
Green to be taken down by the cops?
Are you sure that's not
the melatonin talking?
Oh, no, that's very cute.
But But think about it.
This UnSub has been
selecting both his victims
and his followers with the
precision of a profiler.
So, you don't think he's the kind of guy
to get set up by Green to
walk right into an ambush?
No, I don't.
This UnSub has figured out
that Green was a mole inside
of his serial killer network
and this was his way of rooting him out.
That's brilliant speculation.
But Green still refuses to talk.
Yes, I thought he would
talk to Garcia, but no.
We've found all of the kill kits
except for these two.
One outside Indio, California.
The other one near near
Rockville, Maryland.
And when I look at these two damn dots,
all I see are lives that we
might not be able to save.

Good morning, Penelope.
Thank for entering my cleansed lair.
Can I ask you something?
If you're gonna ask me to
look after your cat again,
I am gonna have to get
an allergy prescription from the doctor.
No. But on behalf of Sergio
and all senior cats everywhere,
we appreciate you
putting your immune system
on the line like that for him.
I've been spelunking
into Tyler Green's past,
and not only is he dealing with
the trauma of losing his sister,
but he was the last
person to see her alive,
and according to his police interviews,
those last moments are hazy.
What, you think he
may have seen Sicarius?
Maybe. And even if he hasn't,
if we give an opportunity
to remember those memories,
he might be more apt
to cooperate with us.
What do you think?
I think it's a great idea.
And the rumor is you're
difficult to work with.
Oh, wait. I started that rumor.
[CHIMING]
Hey, we got a case.
Let's pitch Emily after we brief.
Uh, no, you will pitch Emily.
Oh, no, I will not.
- Yes.
- This was your idea.
Yes, it was, but I brought it to you.
PRENTISS: Last night,
there was a home invasion
in Germantown, Maryland.
Kevin Warren, a response
office for Alpheus Security,
was murdered in front of the homeowners,
Leticia and David Crawford.
Here's the twist
the Crawfords weren't home at the time.
They were on vacation in Miami.
So, they got an alert
and watched it go down
on their security app.
Actually, Alpheus would
have to get the alert
even before the Crawfords,
in order for them to send a guard out.
Which means these guys
have the technical skills
- to take control of the whole system.
- ROSSI: Or they had help.
One of our missing kill kits is
located in Rockville, Maryland,
which is roughly 10
miles from Germantown.
Well, a link to Sicarius could
explain the mixed motivations
that we're seeing here, right?
The The psychological sadism
directed at the home owners
couples with the physical sadism
inflicted on the security guard.
Well, only one of them speaks.
He's the same one who
executes the guard.
He's clearly the dominant of the pair.
Obviously done something
to obscure their faces here,
but this kind of brutal exhibitionism
definitely indicates
younger male assailants.
It does. So, Emily, if you prefer to
No, I'm good. I will leave it
to you to divide and conquer.
Okay.
- Go talk to her.
- Right. Now's the time.
- Come on. Let's go.
- No, I'm not.
You need to go and talk to her.
You should tell her.
- It's all right.
- No, no.
- It was your idea.
- It's your thing.
It's kind of in your house of wheels.
Guys, what the hell is happening?
Garcia has a great idea
about how we could get
Tyler Green maybe to cooperate with us.
What's that?
Give him his memories back.
Um, I don't understand. What memories?
Green was the last
person to see his sister
before she disappeared,
and he's got a lot of guilt
about not being able to
remember those moments.
So, Garcia thought that if we
give him a cognitive interview,
we could help him recover those memories
and maybe we earn his trust.
And then he starts sharing with us.
Maybe he saw Sicarius back in the day.
It's an excellent idea, Penelope. Okay.
Luke, you and I should focus
on conductive the cognitive.
But after your first go around with him,
are you sure you can
convince him to sit for it?
I don't "Yes" is the answer.
Okay, I don't I'm
being honest. I don't know.
So, I know we didn't exactly
have a meeting of the minds
- at our last encounter
- [SCOFFS]
but I wanted you to
know that our forensic people
did not find your sister's
DNA in that shipping container.
They didn't?
Which is good news, in a way.
- Good news?
- Yeah.
I mean, according to Buddhist teaching,
hope is still suffering,
but I'm holding onto
hope because it's
what we've got that she
could be out there somewhere.
- At least, that's how I choose to
- My sister's dead.
Look, I read your police interview,
and I know that you don't
remember what happened
the night Alison went missing.
I know that all the important
details are, like, in this fog.
[EXHALES SHARPLY]
What if I could lift that fog?
Not me, per se, but
someone from my team?
What do you say?
Uh, it's it's called
a cognitive interview.
It's kind of like a guided
I know what a cognitive interview is.
♪
Of course you do, because
you know everything.
You You Yeah.
Okay. I don't like you.
I also have a lot of compassion
for what you're going through,
and I have respect for your
computer literacy, but
I wasn't even working
for the FBI anymore.
Do you know that? I was
out. You pulled me back in.
You sent me that encryption
and you cornered me into helping you,
and now you're pissed at where I work
and you're pissed at
the help I'm offering,
and this whole lone wolf,
"I'm-a catch a serial
killer on my own" bullshit
is so tiresome, and honestly,
if you just want to stay
here and rot, do it, man.
That's on you. I'm no
longer in the business of
of saving people who
don't want to be saved.
But I know this my friends
are very good at what they do.
So, if you decide to pull
your head out of your ass
and do this cognitive interview,
it's gonna be a win-win,
because I never have to see
your grumpy little face again,
and I promise you
I promise, all of those
details you're searching for,
you'll get those answers,
and the shame and the guilt
you feel about not being able
to remember what happened that night
I know from personal
experience, it will lift.

Going over the

Yeah. I think so.
This pair of UnSubs is just set
to kill whoever's showing up.
LEWIS: You know, with that first video,
I wasn't sure how they were doing it,
but now, I think I know how
they're keeping their faces
all dark and blown out like that.
It's this Cubist-inspired makeup
technique called "CV Dazzle."
Apparently, the pattern of application
has a way of confusing the camera lens.
Makeup. Huh.
Just another little something
that might've fit
neatly into a kill kit?
Along with that Wi-Fi
device we recovered
that helped these guys hack into
the Murrays' security system.
Our Sicarius definitely
likes to help those
who help themselves.
You know, another
thing that strikes me is
just how close their pattern of action
is to their first home invasion.
I mean, it's almost like
a rehearsed choreography.
It is. A ritualized performance.
As if these two are
reenacting a past trauma.
A shared trauma.
That's it.
I think we're ready
to deliver the profile.
ROSSI: Our Unknown
Subjects are both male
between the ages of 18 and 35.
One or both have been
trained in computer science.
We believe that they're
related, most likely brothers
with a shared profound personal trauma,
a trauma not unlike the attacks
they're currently carrying out.
JENNIFER: These brothers are,
without doubt, mission-oriented,
with a bent toward avenging
a personal injustice.
And yet, they are choosing
to punish these home owners
as surrogates for the real
target of their revenge.
That means that they
are not only working up
the means to this revenge,
but they are building up
the courage to carry it out.
And based on the timing and method
used to escape the Murrays' home,
these UnSubs are most likely local.
Now, there is one real wild card
in everything we've profiled
about these brothers.
They may be receiving help.
TRACK-SUITED FIGURE #1: All
right. I'm in the system.

As you probably know by now,
we are pursuing the leader
of a network of serial killers,
and we believe he may be aiding

Unfortunately, we're still
a little bit in the dark

this so-called "Sicarius."

So, 24 hours ago, Tyler Green
looked like one of our so-called
Sicarius' devoted acolytes,
but now it just looks
like a misguided vigilante.
What do we know about his dead sister?
Well, according to DC Metro Police,
Green's sister, Alison,
was reported missing
back in the fall of 2007.
She was 23 years old.
She had a 2-year-old
son, and she was last seen
leaving her apartment
with her new boyfriend.
His name was either Louis or Lee.
Neither was ever seen again.
So, we haven't identified her
as one of the shipping
container victims?
No. No, we haven't.
And as far as the DC
police are concerned,
Alison Green remains a missing person.
But Green is certain
Sicarius killed her.
Yeah, but maybe because
Sicarius told him he killed her.
I mean, Green's drone spotting
was for army intelligence,
and their psy-ops training
would've certain given him the skill set
he needed to infiltrate that network.
To gain Sicarius' trust and
get him to share his history,
- his secrets
- His kill kits.
And now, we need Green to share
everything he knows with us.
Except that our profile of Green says
that his "defiance of authority,"
which is what got him
kicked out of the military,
means that he'd rather
do time than talk to us.

PRENTISS: Last night,
there was a home invasion
in Germantown, Maryland.
Kevin Warren, a response
office for Alpheus Security,
was murdered in front of the homeowners,
Leticia and David Crawford.
Here's the twist
the Crawfords weren't home at the time.
They were on vacation in Miami.
So, they got an alert
and watched it go down
on their security app.
Actually, Alpheus would
have to get the alert
even before the Crawfords,
in order for them to send a guard out.
Which means these guys
have the technical skills
- to take control of the whole system.
- ROSSI: Or they had help.
One of our missing kill kits is
located in Rockville, Maryland,
which is roughly 10
miles from Germantown.
Well, a link to Sicarius could
explain the mixed motivations
that we're seeing here, right?

Guys, what the hell is happening?

about how we could get
Tyler Green maybe to cooperate with us.
What's that?
Give him his memories back.
Um, I don't understand. What memories?
Green was the last
person to see his sister
before she disappeared,
and he's got a lot of guilt
about not being able to
remember those moments.
So, Garcia thought that if we
give him a cognitive interview,
we could help him recover those memories
and maybe we earn his trust.
And then he starts sharing with us.
Maybe he saw Sicarius back in the day.
It's an excellent idea, Penelope. Okay.

LEWIS: You know, with that first video,
I wasn't sure how they were doing it,
but now, I think I know how
they're keeping their faces
all dark and blown out like that.
It's this Cubist-inspired makeup
technique called "CV Dazzle."
Apparently, the pattern of application
has a way of confusing the camera lens.
Makeup. Huh.
Just another little something
that might've fit
neatly into a kill kit?
Along with that Wi-Fi
device we recovered
that helped these guys hack into
the Murrays' security system.
Our Sicarius definitely
likes to help those
who help themselves.
You know, another
thing that strikes me is
just how close their pattern of action
is to their first home invasion.
I mean, it's almost like
a rehearsed choreography.
It is. A ritualized performance.
As if these two are
reenacting a past trauma.
A shared trauma.
That's it.
I think we're ready
to deliver the profile.
ROSSI: Our Unknown
Subjects are both male
between the ages of 18 and 35.
One or both have been
trained in computer science.
We believe that they're
related, most likely brothers
with a shared profound personal trauma,
a trauma not unlike the attacks
they're currently carrying out.
JENNIFER: These brothers are,
without doubt, mission-oriented,
with a bent toward avenging
a personal injustice.
And yet, they are choosing
to punish these home owners
as surrogates for the real
target of their revenge.
That means that they
are not only working up
the means to this revenge,
but they are building up
the courage to carry it out.
And based on the timing and method
used to escape the Murrays' home,
these UnSubs are most likely local.
Now, there is one real wild card
in everything we've profiled
about these brothers.
They may be receiving help.

As you probably know by now,
we are pursuing the leader
of a network of serial killers,
and we believe he may be aiding

Unfortunately, we're still
a little bit in the dark

this so-called "Sicarius."
However, we are hopeful that his
material support of the brothers
won't obscure the

LEWIS: Oh, Dave.
Montgomery County Police
just sent us a cold case file.
A home invasion out of
Redland, Maryland, from 2012.
Okay, so the owner's
name was Cameron Bruneau.
Security consultant.
Even though he was protecting his home
with state-of-the-art equipment,
a pair of drug-addicted
transients broke in.
Cameron takes his younger son, Jude,
and locks them both in the safe room,
but these invaders are
desperate for money.
They hold a knife on his wife,
Jaylee, and his older son, Gael,
and they're threatening
to slit their throats
if he doesn't open up the safe room
and give them all the
money in his vault.
He refused.
And they slashed his wife's throat,
right in front of 12-year-old Gael.
This guy still refuses
to open up the safe room,
even though they've
got a knife on his kid.
Eventually, the men spare
the boy, they run off.
Montgomery County Police has
never been able to track them down.
Gael and Jude Bruneau.
It might certainly be hard for them
to forgive their father
for their mother's death.
Do we have any addresses?
Uh, let me check,
see if I can get something
off their driver's licenses.
They both live in Baltimore.
Let's see where their dad is.
Montgomery Village.
I mean, that's ground
zero for these murders.

into protective custody,
and we need to get APBs
out on his boys right now.
