"spencer lay down you aren't going anywhere." alex says, holding him down as he tried to get out of the bed. "madison-madison gone. he took madison." evelyn mumbled, frozen in her spot. "i'm not gonna lay here while that monster has our daughter!" spencer exclaims, as he tries to get up. our daughter. "i-i gotta go get madison." evelyn says, obviously broken, walking out to the waiting room, aimlessly looking around. "evelyn?" hotch says as he noticed her strange behavior. "he took madison." she says softly. "who took madison?" hotch asks, putting his hands on her shoulders. "michael reyes." evelyn says, looking up at hotch. "shit." hotch hisses, rushing out with evelyn and grabbing penelope as they left. they immediately flew back to quanico, calling 911 once they got to her house, finding the body of the nanny on the floor of the nursery. evelyn looked over to the wall the words 'i win' scribbled on it in the nanny's blood. "oh god." evelyn whispers horrified and walking out. the police came, getting to information they needed before telling evelyn to leave. she left with hotch and penelope, going  to the bau. they spent hours trying to find him, evidently having no luck. once a full 24 hours had passed they took a break, trying all that they could. "why aren't you doing anything?! that's my daughter for gods sake!" evelyn yelled, pacing frantically around the room. "we've tried everything. at this point, we just have to wait." penelope said softy. "no, NO! i'm sick of just waiting." evelyn exclaims, understandably frustrated. "look i know it's frustrating but-" hotch says, evelyn cutting him off. "no aaron, you don't. i know you lost haley, but that is nothing compared to what i'm going through." she spat. "she is the only good thing that has come out of what happened to me. and now he's taken her and i have no idea if she's okay, or if she's even alive!" she continued. hotch sighed. "look, the rest of the team is on their way back, once they're back we can start looking again, okay?" hotch says sympathizing with her. evelyn huffs but nods, knowing it was the only option. once the team got back (minus alex and spencer) they immediately got to work. about 30 minutes later spencer arrived. "spencer, you're not supposed to be here, you're supposed to be at home." hotch says, trying to push him out. "no i need to help find madison." spencer says, pushing past him and going to evelyn, hugging her as she broke down in his arms. "i knew i should've never left her." she sobbed. "it's not your fault evelyn" spencer said as he rubbed her back. "but it is. he was waiting until i left the state to take her. he knew her name. he shouldn't know that, or even know about her." she explains. Spencer sighs, not knowing how to respond. "you should really go home, I don't want that wound bursting open." Evelyn says, putting a hand on the bandage. "I'm okay Evelyn.really. I'll only go home once our daughter is safe and sound. there is was again. our daughter. "our daughter?" Evelyn says, not opposed to it. "I'm unofficially adopting her." he announces making Evelyn laugh softly. "and officially adopting her asap, if that's okay with you." he says."of course it is. I much rather you be her dad than him.' she says, her phone immediately ringing. "hello?" she answered. "Evelyn, im just 'him' now? no baby daddy, Michael, nothing? what is it because I'm not dr. Spencer Reid?" the voice on the other line said. Evelyn shot her eyes to hotch, hotch nodding at Garcia that it was him, Evelyn putting the phone on speaker. "awe, that's cute, you really think you'll find me? I've been watching you ever since you returned, and you haven't even noticed. I've seen everything you've done. and when I say everything, I mean everything. hat scar is healing nicely. and dr. reid, how do you get her to unravel in bed the way you do?" he taunts. "where is my dau-" Evelyn starts, michael cutting her off. "our daughter. not just yours and definitely not dr reids. she may look like him, but there isn't an ounce of him in her." he hisses. "and she's fine. but she won't shut the hell up." he says, obviously annoyed, the sound of a baby crying being heard in the background. "shut up!" he hissed, the sound of a slap and Madison crying harder being heard in the background. "don't you dare hurt her." Evelyn hissed. "or what? I've already won. come and find me, caterpillar." he taunts, hanging up the phone. "Garcia, please tell me you got him." hotch says. "im sorry sir, no." she replies, tears streaming down her face. "Spencer, I'm so sorry." Evelyn sobbed, hugging him tightly. "I never wanted to drag you into this." she continued. "Evelyn, it's okay, it's part of the case." Spencer replies. "no I mean-" Evelyn starts, cut off by Garcia. "I found him,  he just sent his location." "let's go." hotch says, the team immediately rushing out.
