"Were you able to trace it?" Gideon asked Spencer
"No. He probably using a disposable cellphone, they're impossible to trace" Spencer responded taking off the headphones
"She said she could see the moon" Elle added on
"She was sedated, could have been a light" Gideon said
"If he keeps her drugged it might mean he's not her very strong, he might have to keep her weak just so he can dominate her" Derek said as Ariana played with the bracelet on her wrist
"Or he's keeping her quite" Elle said confidently
"Has Davenport told us everything about his staff?" Gideon asked Hotch
"Oh, yeah, we have detailed reports, but we should probably revisit background in household staff, aides and current docket" Hotch reassured
"Guys, she was t blindfolded" Ariana said
"No" Gideon said
"If she's seen his face as soon as he gets that money..." Ariana said trailing off
"He'll kill her" Gideon added on

"He said 'Owed'" Gideon said leaning over the piece of paper that had everything the unsub said on it
"$500,000. HES demand sounded scripted like he was reading it to us" Spencer said standing next to Ariana how was also Bent over
"But the rest of the conversation wasn't, he was his most relaxed talking to Cheryl" Ariana said
"What's that mean?" Gideon said taking off his glasses
"Maybe he already knew her" Ariana finished standing up straight
"How much time do we have" Derek asked Reid
"6minutes"
"How quickly can we get the money?"Gideon asked breaking the previous silence

Ariana walked into the kitchen to find Cheryl pouring herself a glass of wine
Ariana slowly walked up to her taking the drink out of her hand and placing it in the sink
"Look, I know I shouldn't drink, but under the circumstances, you think you could let me slide?" She asked
"Cheryl, he going to call back, we need you at your best" Ariana told her
"Have you had many cases like this before" she asked with her hands in her pockets avoiding eye contact with the young agent in front of her
" I've seen my share of abductions"
"I don't know how you do it, this job, how do you stomach it?" She asked
"The men we haunt down are cowards, for the most part, they target the weakest members of society, woman and children, there is nothing I'd rather do more than put the bastards away" Ariana explained looking Cheryl in the eyes
"Just wished you could get them before they snatch someone" Cheryl said with attitude
"Trish is alive, you've trusted your feelings this far hold on to that" Ariana tells her as the telephone goes off
Ariana and Cheryl quickly make their way back into the living room , Ariana heading towards Spencer
"Everything will be done by Cheryl. Cheryl will gather the money packets. Only she will touch the money. Cheryl will make the drop. If she is wired, if you use a look alike, Patricia dies. Cheryl will get in her car. No one is to be in the car with her, No one is to follow her, no air surveillance, No car Surveillance m of any kind will be tolerated. I will give direction ms over a cellphone as Cheryl drives. She must make the drop at exactly 3:00 A.M. She will follow each instruction to the letter." The unsub explained to them
