Criminal Minds

Previously on Criminal Minds: Evolution …

Sophisticated.

You see that? Another Haeberlin.

We thought these cases were connected.

Now we have our smoking gun.

The unsub gathered followers that he's now activating.

This is a network.

Whatever city Sicarius finds himself,

Second Street is his preferred hunting ground.

- Did you come here to kill me? - I already killed you an hour ago.

I just came here to watch an old man die.

I always knew it.

Family is what gets you killed.

Our vice is in our blood.

- You are? - You know who I am.

You killed my sister Alison.

Your subconscious is fighting urges to kill, which is why I'm distracting you.

You talking to me is how you cope.

You think if I walk you through everything,

you'll be able to stop someone else?

You're a living resource, Elias.

For the sake of others, I can't just let you sit in here and not tell your story.

The families of some of your victims have reached out and they want to meet you.

- It was part of your training. - What?

Your training by this government agency.

Where did you hear that?

It's in the podcast.

Welcome to The Sicarius Files.

May I call you Elias?

Look at me, Brian. It's sad how pathetic I am.

But you know what's even more pathetic?

Someone who makes a show about it.

And anyone who listens to it.

That's so true.

- This carbonara is to die for. - I know, right?

Where's this place again?

It just opened up on Second Street, around the corner from my office.

Mama, look!

- It's for Auntie Ryleigh. - Oh.

Thank you, sweetie.

It's almost time for bed now.

- Do you need help brushing your teeth? - No.

Okay.

She gets it from her mama.

I hate to break it to you, big sis, but,

"everybody thinks they got good taste and a sense of humor,

but they couldn't possibly all have good taste."

Very funny. I know that movie too.

Is that why you haven't uttered one word about what I've done to the kitchen?

The new backsplash?

- Kali… - What?

Those colors. What were you thinking?

Those colors announce themselves.

Yeah, they scream, "I got bad taste."

Is everything okay?

It's just my mom. She fell. Again.

Is your dad home?

No, but the neighbor was able to get her to the hospital.

I know.

You need to be there.

I'm sorry, babe. I'm sorry.

- It's getting out of hand. I don't... - There's nothing to be sorry about.

- I'll call you soon as I can, okay? - Mm-hmm.

Come here.

- I love you. - I love you more.

Look, if there's anything you or Avery need while he's gone,

do not hesitate to reach out to me. Or Jesse.

I appreciate that.

Especially,

if you want Jesse to replace that backsplash.

Girl…

- Ms. Wilson. - Yes.

Emory Joy, DA Durham County.

Can't tell you how much I appreciate you taking the time.

Oh, not a problem.

And you're not the first jurisdiction to make the request.

- Uh, you get my email with the case file? - Yes.

Um, Kaliyah Burke and her daughter, Avery, reported missing.

Four years ago, presumed dead,

back when most of this area was underwater

and nobody would have ever anticipated a drought.

That's her car?

It is, and her four-year-old daughter Avery was stuffed in the trunk.

You all right?

- Did you find Kaliyah Burke's body? - No.

This is all so heartbreaking,

um, but I'm sorry, DA Joy,

what makes you think this has anything to do with the Sicarius Killer?

We conducted a search of the immediate area and uncovered this.

A Haeberlin case.

An empty kill kit.

Same as the ones used by the Sicarius Killer. Am I right?

Yes.

But you know as well as I do Elias Voit confessed to the murders of 63 people.

Kaliyah Burke and her daughter…

…were not among them.

So why keep that to himself?

I don't know.

That's what we need to ask him.

Luke, you are a lifesaver.

I'm just glad I didn't have to rescue you

from that river of water that was coming…

from your busted pipe.

Three. Three inspections and nobody notices that it's about to burst?

Everything hangs on just until escrow closes.

Yep.

And, uh, between the move and Henry applying to colleges,

I don't know how many more disruptions he and Michael can take.

I don't think I've seen them… …smile in weeks.

How long are you out for?

Uh, Contractor said two, maybe three weeks.

- Huh. - Oh.

I don't think the boys and I can impose on Penelope that long.

Oh, my gosh. Hello, hello, hello.

You are here, JJ, and you are here, Luke, earlier than I thought you'd be here.

That's my bad. I just…

I just thought that I should get settled sooner rather than later.

That makes so much sense.

- This is most awkward. The thing is... - No, you know what?

Uh, I'm the one that said 10:00 and I just… Bleh.

Penelope, d-do you have a gue…

- I had a great time. Yeah. - Yeah, me too.

- I'll, um… I'll call you later? - Uh-huh. Yeah, great.

Bye.

- Nice. - Now.

Okay, look, I know I'm the one that barged… …in on you,

but, uh, I'm a little disappointed you didn't tell me you had a new boyfriend.

Oh, he's not my boyfriend.

No, no, that's Mr. Wednesday?

- Yeah. - Mr. Wednesday.

As in there's other days of the week?

Oh, no.

Saturday, and then that's it.

Oh.

Wait, and you… you knew about this?

I-I didn't know he was gonna merge into Thursday...

How is any of us to know that, real…

No, JJ, I wasn't trying to keep a secret from you,

and I know it's been over a year,

but it just didn't seem appropriate for me to be,

you know, spewing about

my salacious paramour encounters to a…

Ah.

A widow.

No, I get that.

But, hey, starting right now, I am gonna be giving you

the deep cuts about my romantic encounters,

'cause we are roommates.

So strap in, get ready.

I'm a little scared, but…

Honestly, though, thank you for letting us stay.

It is my honor and my pleasure to host you all.

I have… The boys' guest room is ready,

and my gigantic bed, which is perfect for platonic overnights too.

- I'm gonna change the sheets. - Well, are you sure?

'Cause I did bring my sleeping bag out of retirement.

Oh, no, you can save that for the weekend camping trip

you're gonna have with your kids.

Well, you know, given the circumstances,

- that has been put on hold indefinitely. - Oh.

- I'm gonna… - Yeah.

- Hey. - What are you thinking?

That the Jareau family needs a pick-me-up,

and I have an idea if you're with me.

Yeah.

Attaboy.

After your uncle Cyrus was granted legal custody.

- After your parents passed away. - You mean after I killed them?

After you killed them.

How long was it before Cyrus started taking you along with him?

Help me!

Not long, maybe a month.

It didn't take him long to break me, and then I was his son.

His servant .

Did he use you to lure his victims?

No, at first he just wanted me to help him get rid of the bodies.

You know where we are?

No.

What did you see on our way out here?

- Nothing. - Exactly.

No road signs, no mile markers.

That's why I picked this place.

Were they all in Durham County?

Yeah, he thought the sheriffs there were lazy and stupid.

Do you remember how many victims?

Fifteen.

Maybe 20.

- All buried? - Mostly.

I mean, we put some in the river.

A couple in the lake.

Would you be able to help us locate the remains?

Well, between the lye and the elements,

Cyrus made pretty sure that they'd never be found.

If you don't mind me asking,

since a lot of this stuff is already part of the court record,

why conduct these interviews?

You sound a little frustrated.

It's not a waste of time?

I mean,

it's pretty much our whole raison d'être, right?
