Morgan hummed as he sat on the couch, Beau immediately jumping up beside him. Beau panted and licked his arms.

"I know, buddy." Morgan chuckled.

"Morning." Fleur walked in.

"Good morning, babygirl." Morgan smiled at her.

"Did I sleep in?"

"Not really, don't worry about it."

"Okay." Fleur hummed and sat down.

Morgan wrapped an arm around her,"Isn't this nice?"

"It is." Fleur smiled,"You okay?"

"Yeah.. Just thinking." Morgan nodded.

"Thinking about?" Fleur raised a brow.

"Secret." Morgan winked.

"Hey." She nudged him.

"Oh, you don't like secrets." Morgan smirked,"Guess who knows the secret."

"Who?" Fleur looked up.

"Oh, nobody... Just your best friend." Morgan crossed his arms.

"Eli forgets everything." Fleur chuckled.

"Exactly. He can't tell a secret he doesn't remember." He shrugged.

"Give me a hint." Fleur groaned.

"No." Morgan shook his head.

"Well- You're not getting told about my secret." Fleur stood up.

Morgan gasped but looked away,"Fine."

"Fine." Fleur hummed.

"I'll figure it out."

"No, you won't because you've got a man brain." Fleur shrugged.

"Man brain?" Morgan scoffed

"I'm sure you will." She laughed.

"Last night, the body of a John Doe was found in a truckstop restroom in Chattanooga, Tennessee." Hotch added.

"And the day before, the body of sixty-one year old Claire Westchester was discovered in a Birmingham, Alabama truck stop restroom." Garcia continued,"They both had been... It's on your tablets."

"They'd been stabbed multiple times, and they'd both been posed post mortem." Hotch pointed.

"Well, he demeans his victims. That's for sure. They're bound to a urinal with rope " JJ sighed.

"He left one hell of a calling card." Fleur looked at the pictures.

"Well, the lack of blood suggests that they were killed somewhere else and then disposed here." Morgan nodded.

"The stab wounds are both shallow and deep. It could be some sort of systematic torture." Reid tilted his head.

"Well, there are no obvious signs of sexual assault." Tara pointed.

"He's sadistic. The stabbing could be what's getting him off." JJ shrugged.

"But he doesn't stop there. He removed their left ears." Elijah tilted his head.
