[Those who fight against demons should be careful, lest they themselves become demons. When you stare at the abyss for a long time, the abyss is also looking at you. ——FriedrichWilhelmNietzsche (Nietzsche philosopher)]

"Some factors are evident from these experiments, and one of them is cognition."

"Serial killers are people like us, not aliens."

"I'm Professor James Fallon, I'm a scientist, a neuroscientist, and I study the human brain."

"The brain is a complex and sometimes deadly machine. In a blind experiment, my colleagues gave me 70 MRI images of the brain. I don't know whose brain scans these are. There are normal people, mental patients, and others. The murderer, through analysis, I deduced that 5 of the brains belonged to psychopaths, and the result is not surprising, these 5 people are serial killers, you are familiar with these people."

Photos of these five people appeared on the screen, they are Charles Milles Manson, dennisrader,

Ted Bundy, Richard Ramirez, John Wayne Gacy.

"This kind of research is mainly around biological factors, which can be called genetics or brain pathology."

"The five brains we identified all had damage to the orbitofrontal cortex, just below the eyes, the number one high-risk allele in monoamine oxidase, the monoamine oxidase gene, can be seen in the brains of these people, This is the key point. Under the action of high-risk genes, the brains of psychopaths begin to secrete serotonin at the beginning of their embryonic development. After adulthood, the calming effect of serotonin has formed. Cause damage and set the stage for disasters to come."

"When the fetus grows into an adult, the serial killer is born."

Recently, a family massacre occurred in Hampton, Virginia. The victim was a military family member whose father was serving overseas. BAU received a request from the local police for a joint investigation.

Reed was the first to arrive at the scene from a criminal psychology class at the University of Virginia, and the others set off from Quantico to investigate as usual.

This is their job.

Their team has been put to the test recently, because their superiors were dissatisfied with Hodge, Hodge demoted himself and promoted Morgan to be the head of the department.Under this series of blows, Hodge finally returned to his normal working state, hiding all his heartache deeply in the deepest part of his heart.

Since Dani left, Reed has also become a little quiet. The class that he had been attending with Dani had become alone.

During the initial investigation, Garcia investigated an unusual message.

An inmate at Virginia's SuperMax prison received two letters in nearly two days.The first was a briefing on the Newport News serial murders, the second was a media briefing on the Downey murders, and there was a note in the letter that said, "Look at what I have done." The letters are signed "an admirer" (anadmirer).

The prisoner was Karl Arnold, a serial killer whom Hodge had captured four years ago.Nicknamed The Fox.

Karl committed eight massacres four years ago, with extremely cruel methods.The current case is very similar to his in terms of tactics.

So Hodge and Emily went to SuperMax prison to investigate, trying to get some useful clues from Carl.

But in the end, after a battle of wits and courage with Karl, they were successfully tricked by Karl.

Under Reed's prompt, Morgan and the others finally found out the identity of the murderer.

And Karl also showed his cards at this time.

"No, Agent Hodge, I think so," he held up the "Look at what I had one" paper and held it up in front of them.Smiling contemptuously. "He has found you!"

Hodge suddenly picked up the notebook on the table, bowed his head and kept flipping through it.

Emily was still confused, "Hodge?!"

Hodge didn't answer her question, but Carl, who was sitting there leisurely, chuckled.

"I can't believe it, you're so smart that you don't know what he's doing!"

The disgusting laughter filled the small interrogation room.

"What's going on?" Hodge's expression made her deeply disturbed.

"Hehe...he's torturing him!" Carl enjoyed the seriousness on Hodge's face.

"Who!?" Emily's voice also began to increase, and it felt very bad to be buried in the drum.

Karl ignored him, just continued to immerse himself in Hodge's painful struggle.

"It turns out that you also have times when you are ashamed!?" Carl chuckled lightly. "Agent Hotchner!"

Finally, Hodge found evidence to prove his conjecture.

On that clipping, the bright red mark ruthlessly protested to him.

Hodge glared at Carl.

Karl didn't mind, but responded with a raised eyebrow and a mocking smile.

"Foye!" Emily whispered the name.

George Foyer, the Boston Reaper's logo was painted on top of Hodge's photo on the newspaper clipping, and the dazzling red made it impossible to ignore.

Hodge slammed the things in his hand on the table and left angrily.

"He knew you were coming!

Passing through the long corridor of the prison, the prisoners in the cells on both sides kept shouting.

Hodge passed through the chaotic roar without looking sideways, and what really echoed in his ears was George Foye's cold voice.

"You should accept that deal!"

The BAU team has been tracking down Foye, who has inflicted injuries on himself that require him to take some special prescription drugs on a regular basis, and they have been tracking down through this.

JJ sent those two letters to the bureau for inspection and found nothing, but they got the postmarked address. JJ learned from the drugstore pharmacist that there are many prescription drugs that can be replaced by over-the-counter drugs, which is why they have been unable to find Foye.

Garcia began to track down those drugs that could not be replaced, and searched for everyone who had the prescription within 60 miles of the two cities on the postmark, and the geniuses in the team could do the rest.

"Tapazole is a thyroid medicine. There is no substitute medicine. You must buy it from a pharmacist. This prescription can adjust the heart rhythm and reduce heart palpitations and tremors." She rushed into the conference room with her laptop.

The room is full of people who are at a loss for what to do.

"So this is our missing piece of the puzzle!"

Using the two addresses on the postmarks, they narrowed Garcia's list to within a 25-mile radius of the midpoint between the two cities.

There are 153 names left on the list.

Still too much.

Foye can't use his real name, and they can't check them one by one, which will scare the snake away.

"We're going to find out what the alias is," Hodge said, picking up Foye's file and flipping through it, trying to find clues.

"He can easily steal other people's ID cards." Emily.

"No." Hodge refuted her argument without raising his head. "He's obsessed with his own mythology, and the name he's using should have a connection to this case."

Hodge knew they were close to finding him.

"The victim? Or the police!" Rossi guessed.

"Okay, search with all the names in the case." Garcia's fingers quickly typed on the keyboard.

That sense of urgency comes every time they're on the verge of finding the killer.Each of them's brains are running fast, analyzing and sharing useful information to drive other people's thoughts.

This is how they work, they are a high-performance team, not a single person fighting alone.

"No." Garcia reported the search results in disappointment.

"Wait a minute!" Reid stood up, leaning on his crutches. "Foye likes to give meaning to things."

"The eye of God, the address he wrote in blood on the bus, it's all leading us back to him, maybe his alias is also related to himself, like an anagram or something."

Reed scribbled words about Foye on the board, and his mind raced to figure out which alias he might use.

However, these are not enough.

"He calls himself THEREAPER." Hodge added a hint.

Reed quickly found the name.

Peter Rhea.

Garcia found his address, in Arlington, and they were out in a hurry.

It was too late when they arrived.Foye set up an alert online so he would know if anyone searched for Peter Rhea.

Foye fled, and they found on his computer a picture of the federal marshals dispatched to the Hodges' home to protect Hayley and Jack.

Hotch couldn't wait for another action request to come through, so he rushed out, heading straight for Sam's house.

Foye was one step ahead of them and attacked Sam. Sam was shot several times, and the fingers of his right hand were severed.

After seeing Hodge, Sam's words made everyone deeply disturbed.

Hodge followed Sam into the ambulance, trying to find out what had happened while he was conscious.

Sam told him intermittently that Foye reached Hayley on his phone and told her Hodge was dead.

"Foye was talking to Hailey on Sam's phone." Hodge called the rest of the BAU to tell them what he had learned.

"Okay, we'll have Garcia track him down," Morgan replied.He is now the team leader, and he gives Hodge the greatest support.

Regardless, Hodge asked himself to be demoted for whatever reason.

"Foye said her address was exposed and that I was dead." Hodge was in a volatile mood.

"Did you call her?" Morgan asked.

"No, he told her to throw away the phone, and then buy a disposable mobile phone to contact him, I can't contact her." He walked out of the hospital.

"We'll pick you up right away!" Morgan said.

"No, Anderson sent me a car."

"Shall we meet in the office later?" Morgan asked.

"I wish she could call me, at least to make sure!" He didn't understand why Hailey believed Foye's deception so easily. He suppressed his excitement and kept praying to God, don't so cruel!

Just one phone call, Hailey please, just give me a call!

The person on the other end of the phone heard Hodge's weak tone for the first time, and understood his grief at the moment, and that sense of powerlessness could crush a person.

"You know Foye plays a police officer and calls Hayley from a number she knows." Morgan told him straight up that he already knew.

"Then he frightened her out of suspicion," Rosie went on.

They analyzed Hailey's performance and eased Hodge's emotions.

"Foye paralyzed her, subdued her." Emily.

"Now that Hailey trusts him, where do you think he'll take her?" Reed asks the most important question.

"Witness protection order requires her to stay in New Jersey." Emily.

"Foye can go one step ahead, maybe it's already here." Reed said the worst ending.

Garcia traced Sam's cell phone signal at this time, because it was a call from the Federal Law Enforcement Agency, he could not confirm his specific location, but these were enough.

Foye is still here, waiting for Hailey to come to him.

Anderson drove the car over, and Hodge asked Garcia to send the coordinates, then cut off the phone and drove away.

In the car he dialed Sam's phone number directly.

Garcia also transferred the call to Morgan and the others.
