"Of all the animals, man is the only one that is cruel. He is the only one who inflicted pain for the pleasure of doing it"

Now that they had gotten a brief idea of what the unsub was like, the team had started to give their profile to the police station. Spencer could sense Laurel's excitement and he understood it. There was an odd satisfaction to figuring out a profile... channeling the unsub.

"That's not to say that the submissive partner is in any way pure or innocent in this exchange," Elle says, walking around the room. Spencer stood behind, watching everyone. He saw Laurel leant against the wall next to Morgan.

"If their criminal desire wasn't present, their partnership wouldn't work," Gideon added.

"The offenders share a common delusion. It's one that you and I would never accept, but it's this bond that justifies their actions," Morgan says.

"So we're looking for two sick minds who complete each other," the captain concludes.

"It's kind of like the perfect storm," Spencer states. "Once these deviant personalities collide, they're deadly and unstoppable."

"Like the D. C. snipers or the Columbine assassins. Sometimes they've met in childhood. Other times, they can be related, like the Hillside stranglers, Angelo Buono and Kenneth Bianchi, psychopathic cousins who terrorized women in Los Angeles," Hotch compared. "The dominant partner makes the submissive one feel invincible. That's his reward for doing as he's told. Unfortunately there are countless opportunities for these twisted minds to meet, and once they've pulled off their vicious acts, the two accept this as common behavior and become bored with normal activity."

"They live only for their new reality. They're obsessed with it, addicted to it. And there's a fierce loyalty between the two," Laurel says. "The submissive one, however, is usually less intelligent and easier to catch, and once caught, he is easier to turn."

"Lack of remorse increases their aggressiveness. Sexual sadists will stop when they're caught," Gideon says.

"And the need to psychologically torture the families-"

"Sorry to interrupt," JJ says, waking in.

"If you've seen my daughter, please, Tiffany's all I have. She went for a run last night, and she never came home. She's my baby," A woman had said on the news.

Tiffany, has been abducted from Middleberg- a town nearly an hour away. The reason no one knew about it was because it was out of their jurisdiction. After making sure it was the same killer, JJ leaves to talk to Beverly Spears- the mother of Tiffany. The killers were identified as impatient and far more dangerous than the day before, meaning Tiffany was running out of time. Garcia informs the group that the unsubs didn't drive the cars. - They destroyed them and sold the parts over state lines.
