"also found animal hair in the first victim's larvae-- raccoon-- and Charlie Clayton had wood residue in his teeth, just like Floressa." " Russell Smith." " JJ:" "Who?" "A serial killer who was active in this part of the country" "from 1967 to 1987." " BLAKE:" "I remember." "Smith was a sexual sadist who murdered eight prostitutes before being killed in a police shootout." "HOTCH:" "And he had his victims bite down on a block of wood before he killed them."

"Doors and windows open when you discovered the body?" "No, sir." "I checked." "Found this in the car." "Bite marks." "The coworker's ready for you." "Yeah, that's him." " You know who he is?" " No, not yet." "WOMAN:" "There was... a cut on his jaw, though." "He had a bandage, but it was bloody." "Fresh blood, like-like it had just happened, you know." "When he left, did he get into a car, or...?" "I didn't see him go." "I just thought he was, like... you know, a homeless guy or something." "He wanted free food." "He asked for food?" "Yeah, he said it was his birthday." "He got really weird and intense when Brianna asked him for his I.D." "How so?" "Well, he went on and on about how nobody would ever lie about the day they were born." "Brianna gave him the pie anyway." "Did this man at any point refer to Brianna by another name?" "Yeah." "I completely forgot about that." "He called her Carol." "Okay." "Well, we appreciate all your help, Ms. Carson." "If you can remember anything else, please give us a call." "♪♪" "(insects buzzing)" "So the unsub recognizes his victims, but he calls them by a different name." "What's that about?" "Guy's schizophrenic, maybe." "No, the killings are too organized and methodical." "These people are probably surrogates." "Garcia can't find any late-blooming" "Russell Smith wannabes out there." "At least nobody on law enforcement radar." "You know, using a stick as a gag may have simply been a convenience at the first two crime scenes-- the unsub was in the forest, and they were handy-- but he specifically brought a stick with him" "to the most recent crime scene-- it's a ritual that mirrors Russell Smith's very closely." "Also, there's something strange about the fly larvae that was found in the car." "You mean besides the fact that there was fly larvae in the car?" "Well, that, and it was laid by Lucilia Mexicana flies." " Meaning what?" " It's a species unique to the Southwestern United States and the dry desert climates of Latin America." "There's no way it would be found along the Gulf Coast unless it was brought here." "I think I know what's going on." " Enlighten us." "DNA from the maggot stomach crop at both crime scenes revealed not only skunk and raccoon, but traces of engine oil." "I think this unsub is seeding his victims with aged maggots reared on animal remains." "Road kill." "(doorbell rings)" "Can I help you?" "I'm looking for Ted." "Sorry." "You must have the wrong house." "(grunts, thudding)" "(laughs softly)" "Kyle!" "Are you okay?" "You must be Ted's wife." " WOMAN (gasps):" "Oh, my God!" " No, no." "Stop right there." "So far, the unsub's not trying hard to hide anything from us." "What if December 11 actually is his birthday, like he told the waitress?" "If the unsub's in his mid to late 20s, it means he was born between 1987 and 1992." "HOTCH:" "Reid, get Garcia on it." "Tell her to narrow the search to those with a criminal background who live in the Southwestern United States, someone with a history of vandalizing churches or religious shrines, and someone who's also worked with, or is at least familiar with insects." "Who are you?" "How do you know Ted?" "What, me and your husband?" "(chuckles softly)" "We've known each other for years and years." "(chuckles):" "And years." "How old are you?" "Where is he?" "My husband is dead." "What?" "He died of-of cancer." " You're lying." " WOMAN:" "I'm not." "I-I live her alone now." "I rent rooms to college students to help with expenses." "I'm going to give you one last chance to tell the truth." "And I mean, it better be the truth." "(gasps)" "When did he die?" "Uh, um, it..." "it was a long time ago." "I need to know exactly when." "1999." "It was May 12, 1999." "Morning or night?" " What?" " Morning... or night?" "Night." "It was night." "What difference does it make?" "Where?" "At home?" "No, at the hospital." "(panting):" "Which one?" " Um..." " Tell me which hospital!" "Escambia Memorial!" "Do you have any idea how many people are born on Earth every day?" "358,197, approximately." "GARCIA:" "I did not want the answer to that question." "My point:" "even if narrowed way, way down, none of these fit the profile of our unsub." "If December 11 really is his birthday, he's kept his nose clean so far." "The unsub told Brianna that there was no more important day in one's life than the day you were born." "It has to somehow be part of his methodology." "BLAKE:" "How about the birthdays of Russell Smith's earlier victims?" "The eight prostitutes." "REID:" "You're right, anniversary kills-- selecting victims who share the same birthdays as those who went before." "What is it, Hodge?" "The new wound on the unsub's jaw-- it wasn't there when he spoke to the neighbor in Gulfport, and there's no evidence that any of the victims put up resistance." "Well, could be an accident;" "accidents do happen." "REID:" "Or there's an interim victim we don't know about yet who did fight back." "Garcia, can you find a file photo of Russell Smith?" "(tapping keyboard)" " Yeah." "Uh-oh." "I'm sending these pictures to your monitors right now." "REID:" "Our unsub's wound was self-inflicted." "He's not trying to emulate Russell Smith." "He's trying to turn himself into Russell Smith." "You've all been given copies of the sketch of the suspect." "They need to be distributed to all law enforcement officials" "in the tri-state area." "JJ:" "All of the unsub's kills so far have been in different cities and different states." "ROSSI:" "We don't have to worry about flushing him out." "He's operating in the open with confidence, bordering on arrogance." "MORGAN:" "We don't know why, but he's been leaving large amounts of insects behind at his crime scenes." "ROSSI:" "Normally, that would be a forensic countermeasure-- artificially accelerating infestation of the corpse." "Or a symbolic way to degrade and humiliate the victims." "HOTCH:" "But these larvae are serving some other purpose to the unsub." "It's like an obsession." "They're an essential component to his kills." "We believe he's slowly turning himself into the image of Russell Smith, an Alabama serial killer who's been dead for nearly 25 years." "The unsub recently cut himself on the jaw to replicate a similar scar on Smith." "JJ:" "And he may continue to alter his appearance." "Russell Smith had several distinctive scorpion tattoos." "Parlors in the region should be notified to be on the lookout for customers requesting these tattoos." "Curiously, the unsub seems to know precisely who he's looking for, but he refers to his victims" "by a different name." " JJ:" "Which means he's either delusional, or he's using these victims as substitutes for someone else, surrogates." "The larvae he's depositing at the crime scenes are indigenous to the Southwestern United States." "So be on the lookout for suspicious vehicles with either Arizona, Nevada or New Mexico license plates." "Russell Smith preyed exclusively on prostitutes and killed infrequently." "Eight victims in a 20-year period." "But this unsub is killing at a rate of one victim every other day, and he is targeting ordinary citizens." "No one is safe." "(indistinct chatter)" "(starts engine)" "All birthdays-- no match between old and new victims." "MITCHELL (over radio):" "Looks like we've been going down the wrong road." "HOTCH:" "Might have been the right road and the direction." "Garcia, what do the initials T.I. stand for?" "T.I. That would be..." "Taylor Lynn." "ROSSI:" "The unsub kept calling Clayton "Taylor"" "and Brianna... "Carol."" "When did Smith kill Carol Hansen?" "I need an exact date." "Uh, killed?" "That would be March 28, 1979." "JJ:" "That's it." "The murder day of the original victim matches the birth date of the new one." " Garcia?" " GARCIA:" "I'm all over it." "Okay, Taylor Lynn Grover, killed February 5, 1985." "Were any of Smith's original victims killed the day" "that Floressa was born?" " Yes." "Patty Johnson." "She was Smith's first victim-- she was murdered on October 9, 1967." "ROSSI:" "What do you want to bet our killer thought Floressa was named "Patty?"" "MORGAN:" "So this unsub thinks his new victims are Smith's old victims." "Garcia, what about locations?" "Where did Patty Johnson, Taylor Lynn Grover and Carol Hansen die?" "Okay, okay, hold on, give me a sec." "Uh, they were all murdered in Alabama, in order:" "Mobile, Birmingham, Gadsden." "ROSSI:" "And where were Floressa," "Clayton and Brianna born?" "Also in order:" "Mobile, Birmingham... and, oh, my God, Gadsden." "Exact same places, exact same dates." "ROSSI:" "That's it." "Patty, Taylor and Carol were all killed only to be born to live again." "This is about reincarnation." "What are you going to do to me?" "MITCHELL (sighs):" "So... this killer believes that Smith's victims didn't really die, but hopped into a newborn life and kept on living?" "Exactly." "Reincarnated as Floressa," "Charlie Clayton and Brianna." "So what's he doing now?" "Killing 'em all over again?" " That's how it looks." " But... he believes in reincarnation, right?" "Who's to say that these new victims haven't just jumped into somebody else's body the way he believes they did the first time?" "MORGAN:" "Well, maybe in his mind, they already have." "See, a fundamental tenet of reincarnation is that you can come back in any life-form, not just human." "That would explain the larvae" "This unsub is introducing a newly hatched life-form next to the victims as he kills them." "It's a new life-form waiting right there, ready to receive the spirit of the one that just died." "MITCHELL:" "He-he thinks that the people he's killing get reincarnated as flies?" "MORGAN:" "He's making sure they don't come back in human form again." "Ensuring that this death ends the cycle." "If he believes it about the victims, he must believe it about himself." "Garcia, can you find out exactly where and when Russell Smith died, and then see who was born" "in the same place at the same time." "Russell Smith died January 19, 1988, Tuscaloosa." "Shot." "Taken to Hobson Regional Medical Center." "Willie Kestler." "Born exact same day, exact same hospital." "Do you have an address for Kestler?" "It is-- it's not local-- uh, 3088 Lakehawk Street, apartment 5, Chandler, Arizona." "Have you got a photo?" "I'm sending it to you now." "(beeping)" "That's our guy." "HOTCH:" "Does Kestler have a vehicle?" "GARCIA:" "Mm-hmm." "He's the registered owner of a Ford" "Bronco, 1989, green, Arizona license plate:" "N-A-Q-3-5-8-6." "Sheriff, put out an APB to all law enforcement within a 200-mile radius." " I'm on it." " Thanks, Garcia." "(trembling):" "How come you're doing this?" "It's that voice in your head." "The one you can't figure out." "(Pants)" "I don't have a voice in my head." "You do." "Maybe it's not as loud for you as it was for me." "For a long time, I didn't understand it." "It was like... there was me... but then there was another me." "(panting quietly)" "You know, a few years ago, right before he died, my grandpa told me something that made it all clear." "It was about what happened to me the day I was born." "(woman screaming)" "I was supposed to be born two weeks before... but wouldn't come." "Then when I did... things got all... tangled up inside." "They had to rip my mama open to get me out." "But that was okay." "Had to wait to be born for a reason." "There was a man, got shot that very day." "A killer." "Russell Smith." "(indistinct chatter)" "(indistinct chatter)" "(laughs softly) You can't explain things like this." "It just happens." "Happened to me;" "it could happen to you." "(rhythmic beeping)" "(indistinct chatter)" "(baby crying)" "(baby continues crying) -(rapid beeping)" "(steady beep tone)" "(crying and steady beep tone continue)" "My mama died when I was five years old, and I had to go live with that bastard." "Old man used to... smack me around all the time." "No reason." "Just mean." "(laughs softly) My grandpa always said I had the..." "Devil inside me." "The soul of a killer." "That's crazy." "No." "It wasn't crazy at all." "After I heard that story, it all made sense." "The voice in my head... the two me's." "There was only ever one real me all the time." "Russell Smith." "That's who I am." "That's who I've always been." "(trembling breath)" "(phone rings)" "What have you got, Garcia?" "Chandler PD says Kestler's apartment is empty, but they found stacks and stacks of books about reincarnation." "HOTCH:" "All right, do the math with each of Smith's other five victims-- find out who was born the same place at the same time that each was murdered." "That's who Kestler will be going after next." "Yes, sir, but this is gonna take a while." "Please put on your hat of patience." " HOTCH:" "Hurry." " Yeah." "We need to take a ride now." "Don't hurt me!" "Please!" "It's not that I want to." "Maybe I am Russell Smith... but it didn't mean I had to be a killer again." "What are you talking about?" "I mean that the whole point of reincarnation is that you're supposed to come back and be better than you were before." "Work on your karma." "What I'm doing now-- it's self-defense." "One of you found out where I was, and you tried to come and cut off my brakes and kill me." "(panting)" " So I had to find you." "All eight of you." "And then I'll be done." "(whimpers) Oh, let me go." "I promise I won't tell anybody." " You're gonna scream your head off, aren't you?" "(boy gasps)" "As soon as we open the door, you're gonna make a run for it." "No." " I don't believe you." "(crying):" "No..." "Maybe we should just do this right here." "(sobbing):" "No!" "No, no, no, no, no..." "No." "Bad, bad news." "What is it?" "GARCIA:" "There are 22 possible people our unsub could be going after, and they are scattered everywhere." "I mean, everywhere." "Nova Scotia to Hawaii to Pennsylvania..." "Any in the Pensacola area?" "(sighs) No." "There's a Ted Sissler, who was born the same day and the same place as one of the older victims from Pensacola, but he died 13 years ago." "Well, that's good, then, right?" "One less person he's gonna want to hunt down and kill." "No, that's bad." "HOTCH:" "Sheriff, check to see if any 13-year-olds went missing in the last 24 hours." "And if Ted Sissler has any family in the area, put them into protective custody immediately." "So, Kestler has no criminal record, but he has been on the Chandler PD radar recently." " Why?" " Three months ago, he was injured in a solo car crash." "Claimed someone cut his brake lines," "and he wanted the police to figure out who did it." "And?" "Investigation turned up no evidence of foul play." "But the police said Kestler was obsessed over it." "He kept showing up for weeks, saying someone was after him." "Well, that must have been the trigger- reincarnation cuts both ways." "Kestler thought Smith's old victims were coming back to get him." "ROSSI:" "He's a psychopath." "Aidan Donahue, 13 years old."
