What Fresh Hell


Synopsis:
When a young girl is abducted in broad daylight from a playground in a seemingly safe neighborhood, the BAU initially believes her father is responsible. When he is able to provide an alibi, the team is forced to look for clues near where the girl lives to determine who is really responsible.

Best Moments Between Characters:
  • When the father asks Gideon if he will find his daughter and Gideon replies that he works with the best men and women in the world and they won't rest until they find her.

Best Lines:
  • Gideon to JJ: (pointing at the press) "Why don't you corral those clowns; all of them. We're gonna need them."
  • Garcia: "Penelope Garcia's house of 'How May I Save Your Ass Today?'"
    Morgan: "Well, you can give me the sex offender registry for Wilmington, Delaware?"
    Garcia: "Oh, that's always a fun group. Um, Morgan, did you hear that Agent Gideon sent me flowers?"
    Morgan: "No kidding?"
    Garcia: "Jealous?"
    Morgan: "SEX OFFENDERS, Garcia."
  • Hotch: "Mr. Jones isn’t interested in pressing charges."
    Mr. Copeland: "What am I supposed to be grateful? The bastard’s a pedophile."

  • Mr.Copeland: "Did you check up on him? Did you ever search his house?"
    Morgan: "His sex offense was soliciting a prostitute...it had nothing to do with children."
    Mr.Copeland    : "But he's registered on -"
    Morgan    :(interrupts him) "Mr. Copeland, there are a lot of ways to get on that list.That's why accessing that type of information is supposed to be left up to law enforcement."

The turning point in the investigation:
Hotch, Morgan and Reid realized that the unsub wouldn't involve himself in the investigation, therefore, they realized he would not have allowed himself to e interviewed when the girl went missing. They focused their efforts on the people who weren't available for the initial interviews. They also put together a news conference claiming the the initial unsub was actually a witness, hoping to have neighbors call in and report a friend or neighbor matching their description, to help them find the unsub.

Whodunit?
Don Curtis, a young, single man in the neighborhood. Upon receiving a tip from one of the other neighbors, the team went to his house. When he wouldn't let them in, and worried about the time it took to get a warrant, Gideon broke in through a window. The team found the man but he refused to speak without his lawyer. Gideon discovered insulation on his broom and realized that the missing girl was in the house. He found her on a dirty mattress up on the attic. Upon searching Don's house, they found child pornography on his computer as well as homemade videotapes hidden in his bookshelves.
