The Angel Maker


Synopsis:
When a series of murders are linked to a serial killer who was executed a year previous, the BAU must find the connection between him and the current killing spree.


Best Moments Between Characters:
  • When Rossi nudges Hotch towards taking a few days off, after Hotch decides driving back to the BAU would be better for him and save his ears from permanent damage.
  • When Garcia admits to Prentiss and Morgan that she has a fear of clowns (coulrophobia), founded in a clown touching her breasts at a birthday party when she was twelve and then acting like it was funny.
  • When Reid, Prentiss, and JJ mock Morgan's dislike of following driving directions , prompting a miffed Morgan to throw Reid the keys to the SUV and make him drive back to the jet.

Best Lines:

  • Morgan: "Reid, you're not seriously floating around the idea of an 'evil twin' are you?"
    Reid: "No, I'm not - I'm floating the idea of an 'eviler' twin. Traditionally the concept is of a 'good twin' and an 'evil twin.' But in this case, it's 'evil twin, eviler twin.'"
    (everybody stares at Reid)
    Reid: (looks away): "..."

  • (about the coded message)
    Rossi: "What do you need to crack it?"
    Reid: "The ability to clone myself and a year's supply of Adderall."
    Rossi: "I'll put on the coffee."

  • Reid: (about deciphering the binary code used to hide messages in the letters) Normally you'd use a computer to run through all these combinations, but it was quicker to do it longhand.
    Prentiss: (pokes Reid's cheek) He's so...life-like.

  • (after explaining a scarring event in her life)
    Garcia: "Apparently making it funny makes it okay."


The turning point in the investigation:
After Reid decodes letters from The Angel Maker to a woman he calls "Dove," and discovers that his "Dove," had used some of the Angel Maker's smuggled semen to impregnate herself, Garcia is able to make a list of women who gave birth within ten months of the letter being sent. The list is narrowed down to nine women, each of whom are single mothers. Only one name matches the sign-in sheet for visitation from the prison - a woman named Chloe.


Whodunit?
Chloe Kelcher, a juror on The Angel Maker's trial. She had first hand knowledge of the trial and all the evidence. She was able to obtain sperm from him and became pregnant and delivered his baby. Her baby however, died, so she attempted to feel closer to The Angel Maker by finishing off what he started, by killing people and making marks on their bodies to match constellations.
