Detective: "State trooper took this before the paramedics showed up. He's unconscious, has four broken bones. He's gonna be in the hospital for a month." he says as the team watches a video from a screen
Man: "I didn't hurt my son."
Detective: "You remember removing the tire iron from the trunk?"
Man: "No! No!"
Detective: "What's the last thing you remember?"
Man: "I picked Eric up from school. Friday, for the weekend. What day is this?"
Hotch: "This happened two days ago in Beechwood, New Jersey. Mr. Fisher had ingested LSD one afternoon and didn't come down until 18 hours later." he says pausing the video turning to the others
JJ: "The hospital reported 6 other patients who ingested LSD in the last 24 hours. The hospital called the CDC, the CDC called us."
Morgan: "So, a bunch of people got spiked."
Watson: "What makes it a BAU case?"
Hotch: "They each received 10 to 20 times the normal dose."
Reid: "It's enough to kill a small child."
Elle: "Or cause a grown man to kill him with a tire iron."
JJ: "Of the seven victims, there was one death and one coma. This is from the hospital's security footage the same night Fisher lost it."
Gideon: "These people didn't get spiked. These people were poisoned."
Gideon: "Roman philosopher Lucretius wrote, "What is food to one is to others, bitter poison."
➰ On The Plane
JJ: "Of the 7 victims, Gail Norman was the only death. She was 78. Ran out into the middle of the road, and she was hit by a car. She was DOA."
Hotch: "The other potentially fatal case is 9 year old Brittany Canon. She fell out of a tree house and fractured her skull. She's in a coma and the doctors don't know if she's going to come out of it."
Gideon: "How do you want to handle the press?"
JJ: "We still don't even know how these people got dosed. I think it would be irresponsible to issue a warning without specifics. It'll just cause panic. I did notify the local PD, though, to be discreet."
Morgan: "How is it possible that none of these people knew how they got poisoned? Hotch None of them remembers anything about the day it happened."
JJ: "These people were so messed up, it's made it difficult for local PD to retrace the victim's steps."
Gideon: "So, we need to go on precedent. We know there are four types of poisoners who target multiple victims."
Hotch: "There's the true believer, the political terrorist/religious cult."
