JJ: "Three nights ago outside of Reno, This car was hit by a tractor trailer."
Watson: "Any survivors?"
JJ: "The truck driver walked away unharmed. Jonathan and Rebecca Gallen, the passengers in the car, were DOA. When the local sheriff arrived on the scene, he noticed several things...no blood spatter inside the car. No seat belt burns. No lacerations from the air bags."
Reid: "They were dead before the accident."
JJ: "The autopsy confirmed that and the cause of death. Blunt force head trauma and evidence of rape and torture to the woman."
Hotch: "The unsub wasn't very successful at hiding the fact that he murdered two people."
JJ: "There's a chance he has gotten away with it before. After I spoke to the sheriff, I had Garcia look into any similar accidents near the California, Nevada border. She found two with a similar M.O. in the past couple of weeks. Both were couples, in a car, hit by a tractor trailer." she says putting up different pictures of couples
Morgan: "It's always a man and a woman stopped right in the middle of the road."
Emily: "It's always at night on a remote highway."
Rossi: "It can't be a coincidence the victim type and this very specific M.O. are the same in all three cases."
Hotch: "Was Garcia able to find any connection between them?"
JJ: "One thing they have in common is that they all disappeared for 48 hours prior to the accidents."
Rossi: "We know what he does to his victims during that time."
