The Secret Desires of
Sadistic Serial Killers.

Signed copies of
Agent David Rossi's

10th anniversary edition
of his bestseller

are on sale tonight.

I find your career so fascinating.

What's it like to
interview serial killers?

Well, it's never boring.

Is that what you enjoy
most about your work,

looking evil right in the eye?

No, it's putting killers in jail.

You know what gets me are the
wives who swear they had no clue

their husband was a serial killer.

How can you be married
to one and not know?

Theresa, would you mind
calling up my car service?

Not at all.

Uh, you'll excuse me?

Sure.

Agent Rossi.

Hi, um...

Hi.

Hi. I'm a big fan.

There's not gonna be a quiz.
I saw you taking notes.

Oh, no, it's just for
my own edification.

Agent Rossi, are you,
or anyone in your department,

investigating the recent spike
in homicides in Cleveland?

Not that I'm aware of.

There's been an uptick in homicides

by 11% this quarter. The average
uptick hasn't surpassed 5%

in the past 10 years in Cleveland.

I'm guessing you're
studying criminology.

I am.

Sir, I think there's
a serial killer here.

Well, have the police
issued a statement

to corroborate that?

I filed an inquiry downtown.

Um, nobody's called me back.

But, um, I know that
the coroner's office

hasn't been as busy since, like,

the Butcher of Kingsbury
Run in the 1930s.

Well, what kind of homicides
are we talking about here?

Ok, um... a man was shot in a park,

a prostitute was found
with her throat slashed,

a couple was found
shot in their car,

a woman was killed in a burglary.

Do you know what 3 things profilers
look at to link serial crimes?

Victimology, modus operandi,
and signature.

Good. So were the victims similar?

No.

Was the MO consistent?

No.

Was the signature consistent?

Not that I know of.

Then there's no obvious reason

to suggest that the spike in
violence was due to a serial killer.

I see your point,
sir, but I really...

You're bright. You obviously
have a passion for this,

and the bureau is always
looking for good people.

So, if you get a reply
from the police,

or even for career advice,

I'm available.

OK, thanks. It was
an honor to meet you.

Keep studying, and don't stop

until you find all the
answers you're looking for.

I won't.

Excuse me.

Get back!

It's OK. Get back!

Uh... oh, hey, it's OK. It's OK.

Look, I'm not gonna hurt you, OK?

I live in the neighborhood.

What's your address?

817 Tivoli.
It's right down that way.

Look, if I was gonna hurt you,

I wouldn't have said,
"Excuse me." OK?

Are we cool?

What the hell, man? You scared me.

I'm... I'm sorry.

What are you doing here?

I was just walking home
from the liquor store

and I saw you snooping around.

What about you?

So you heard what happened here?

Yeah.

Poor woman.

All the neighbors are freaking out.

I can't believe I didn't
even know her name.

Kayla James.

She was raped, too.

Can't believe this
happened on my street.

No, it's not just your street.

There's been a lot
of murders lately.

Really?

Yeah, it's uncharacteristically
high for our city.

You with the police or something?

I'm just investigating a few cases.

Gosh, all of a sudden,

all these random, violent murders.

Something weird is going on here.

What do you mean by weird?

Agent Rossi.

Yes.

I'll be right down.

Agent Rossi?

I'm Detective Dan Brady.

We found your card on the victim.

Any idea what happened here?

"I never teach my pupils,

I only attempt to
provide the conditions

in which they can learn."

Albert Einstein.

She was found by a woman
walking her dog this morning.

Dog wouldn't stop barking.

I just talked to her last night.

I never asked her name.

Zoe Hawkes.

That's her car right there.

These keys were
still in her pocket.

Car alarm was still activated.
There was no sign of a break-in.

She had pepper spray
but didn't use it?

I don't know, maybe she
didn't get the chance.

Nobody saw or heard anything?

No. We went door to door.
There were no witnesses.

There was blunt-force
trauma to her head,

signs of strangulation.

Murderer asphyxiated her

with the scarf she was wearing.

Do you have any idea
what she was doing

snooping around this case?

You keep talking like I
know something. What case?

The resident of this house,
Kayla James,

was murdered and raped 3 days ago,
in a burglary-homicide.

I think there's a
serial killer here.

And don't stop until you find all
the answers you're looking for.

I won't.

This is Henry wearing the
booties my mom knitted him.

I can't get over his cuteness.

Oh, and this is him wearing
the customized leather jacket

auntie Penelope got him.

When he grows up,
he's gonna be a rebel.

Is this David Rossi,

the famous bestselling author,
David Rossi?

What are you doing?
You're not supposed to be calling

when you're on annual leave.

I think my AL just ended.

What do you mean?

Garcia, Cleveland Police
is sending you some files.

Get JJ to distribute them
to the team right away.

Yeah. What are we looking at?

I don't know yet.
Just see if the team

can find a connection
with these crimes.

I'll call you back in a few hours.

Yes, sir.

She had a notebook
with her last night.

I saw one in her car.

Can I take a look?

It may be evidence,
but I don't see why not.

Have you been to her house yet?

I'm headed there now.

I have to notify the next of kin.

Now, if you get a
reply from the police,

or even for career advice,

I'm available.

Thanks.

It was an honor to meet you.

Sheila Hawkes?

Yeah.

Hi. I'm, uh,

Detective Brady with the
Cleveland Police Department.

This is Agent Rossi, with the FBI.

May we come in?

Why?

It's about your daughter.

That... that's...
that's one of her journals.

Has something happened?

Yes.

She was murdered.

I am so sorry.

Mrs. Hawkes.

Here, let me help you.

Oh, no!

No!

Where did you find her?

She was in a house
in East Cleveland.

We think she may have been
visiting a crime scene.

God...

I told her to stop doing that.

I told her that was too dangerous.

Where... where is she now?

She's at the coroner's office,

and I can take you to see
her when you're ready.

OK. Now.

Right now. I have to go right now.

Mrs. Hawkes, would you
mind if I stayed behind

to look in her room?

She was so excited to meet you.

You're like a...

a hero to her.

Mrs. Hawkes.

Let me take you downtown now.

Come on.

I'll, uh, I'll send a car for you.

The crimes are within
a 7-mile radius.

Well, that's something.

Yeah, but the neighborhoods
are all completely different.

They range from poor to rich,
industrial to residential.

The physical locations
are dissimilar,

but the operating
zone's well-defined.

OK. I'm in.

I see you.

In your web browser
for search history.

Check out her home page.

All right, so the first
thing she looks at

when she opens her
computer is a crime column.

Probably to stay
current on her studies.

Can you see what
she worked on last?

Voila.

These are the most recently
opened documents she created.

Looks like she was compiling

empirical data about
homicide trends in Cleveland.

Do you think she knew the killer?

I don't see any notes
indicating suspects.

Well, Dave, she's a
criminology student.

She's been taught to
analyze statistics

and apply theory,
not investigate killers.

Let's talk about what we know.

All right. Victim one...
Travis Bartlett was last seen

at a gay bar. He was
shot at night, in a park.

Victim 2, Lily Nicks,
a 34-year-old prostitute,

her throat was slashed.

Victims 3 and 4,

June Appleby and Troy Wertsler,

were shot in their
car at a parking lot

outside of a movie theater.

And victim 5 was a
28-year-old single woman,

Kayla James, killed in her home.

She was bound, suffocated,
with a bag over her head,

evidence of rape.

And then the sixth victim was Zoe.

Victimology, weapons used, and COD.

Are all different.

It's hard to imagine
it's even the same unsub.

It can't be a coincidence

that Zoe goes to Kayla James'
house and gets murdered.

All right, let's say
it is the same killer.

Does anybody see a pattern?

Well, maybe.

OK, in the first crime,
he shoots the victim.

The second crime, he rapes a
woman and slashes her throat.

That's more personal.

And the third crime, he escalates

to killing two people,

and the fourth,
he escalates even more

by raping a woman, binding her,
and suffocating her.

So if it is the same unsub,

you could argue that there's a
progression of violence with every kill.

It could be an anger
excitation offender,

getting more daring
with each crime.

I think I got something here.

Look at this.

The slashes in the
prostitute's throat...

they're all shallow, unsure cuts.

The Kayla James crime scene...

telephone cord, rope,
and duct tape were used.

It's like he couldn't
decide how to bind her.

So, without a gun,

he's sloppy, inexperienced.

The young couple shot in the car...

That crime scene
remind you of anything?

Yeah, they were shot
with a .44 bulldog,

just like the Son of Sam
used on his victims,

which were also young
couples in parked cars.

It might be nothing, but you're right,
there is a parallel there.

With the second victim,
it's hard not to think of Jack the Ripper.

The obvious similarity being, it's a
prostitute, whose throat was slashed.

Kayla James was bound,
tortured, raped,

with a plastic bag over
her head like, BTK.

What about victim number one?

Garcia, what neighborhood
was he found in?

At a park in the
Kingsbury Run area.

Zoe reminded me last night

that Cleveland's most
famous serial killer

was the Butcher of Kingsbury Run.

He found his victims
in gay bars, shot them,

and dumped their body there.

Travis Bartlett was
last seen at a gay bar,

and his body was found
in Kingsbury Park.

So these are copycats of
famous serial killers?

He's a serial killer
studying serial killers.

See you in Cleveland, Dave.

Hey, Dave. Guys.

We're in that room.
Coffee's brewing.

We'll get started on
the evidence boards.

Detective Brady's our point.

I'll let you all
introduce yourselves.

JJ.

Can you help me out with something?

Sure.

This has to be confidential.

I know it may seem farfetched,

but copycat killers are
not entirely uncommon.

This one happens to be copying
several different killers.

But if he's trying to be the
Butcher of Kingsbury Run,

why didn't he cut up and
mutilate the victims,

like the real guy?

That was 7 weeks ago.

He was just getting started.

Beginning killers are often
frightened of the crime itself.

They're more interested in getting
it over with as quickly as possible

and fleeing the scene.

He was just using
the Butcher's ruse

as a way to lure the victim
to be alone with him.

And by the time he killed
Kayla James, 3 days ago,

he'd progressed. He came very close

to copying all of the BTK's MO.

He's reading, learning,
borrowing from others,

because he doesn't
know who he is yet.

And because of this, we think
he's young and impressionable,

maybe even a student.

Someone probably enrolled
in criminology classes.

Our technical analyst
is going through names

of local students right now.

Up to this point, changing his MO

has prevented investigators
from linking the crimes.

That's why we need to work quickly.

You're sure about this?

It's not a coincidence
that all of these

random, violent murders,
in a localized area,

are copycats of serial killers.

It's as if all the
worst serial killers

have converged on Cleveland.
Every time he plans to kill,

the murder weapon, the MO,
and the victimology will all change.

Detective, will you
let your team know

we're ready to give a
preliminary profile.

Sure. I gotta go.

Hotch. I'm gonna step
out for this one,

clear my head.

OK.

Garcia found 3 male students

enrolled in criminology
classes with felony records.

Good. We'll interview them.

I don't think we need to.

One of them is studying abroad,

the other 2 are back in
jail on other charges.

Tell Garcia to check enrollment

in online and
correspondence courses,

see if we have any luck
with those parameters.

You guys handle the profile?

Yeah. Everything OK?

Everything's fine.

We have 6 homicides in a 7-mile
radius in East Cleveland.

Now, this small zone indicates

that's he's a geographically
stable offender.

This type of offender is
characterized as young,

socially immature,
of average intelligence,

with psychopathic
personality traits.

They also usually live alone
and have an antisocial nature.

A serial killer's first
murder is very telling.

This unsub's first murder,
he chose the MO

of Cleveland's own
Butcher of Kingsbury Run.

The Butcher isn't as well known

as other famous serial killers,

but he is a local legend.

And because he picked
the Butcher to be first,

we believe he's a
native of Cleveland

and probably grew up hearing
stories of the Butcher.

This is someone who is
obsessed with serial killers.

His computer will be filled
with research on them.

He'll have abundant images
of murderers on his computer

and possibly even snuff films.

He uses these like pornography.

They provide some sort
of sexual release.

I think he went back
to relive his crime.

When Zoe showed up,
she became a victim of opportunity.

It's the same theory we
arrived at on the plane.

He strangled her
with her own scarf.

He didn't plan it.
I think she surprised him.

I told her not to stop
until she found the answers

she was looking for.

I didn't think she would
go to a crime scene.

Her mom said it's something
that she does all the time.

She probably would
have gone anyway.

But it's because of what I said

that she was encouraged
to go there last night.

Dave, what are you doing?

She came to me and I dismissed her.

Try not to personalize it.

I was the last one she talked to

before she was murdered.

How is this not personal, Aaron?

OK.

It's personal.

That doesn't change how we
go about finding her killer.

We know that violent criminals

develop a signature
over a series of crimes.

If he's young, he probably hasn't
even figured out what his is yet.

Find the signature,
we can link the crimes.

He probably monitoring the news, seeing
if the police have connected them yet.

We can use that.
We can utilize the media.

And I think I know
who we can talk to.

I knew homicides were up,

but nobody said anything
about a serial killer.

Why do I get a visit from the BAU?

You're Paula McConnell,

Cleveland's number one
source in crime news.

You're detailed,
you have a following.

He's reading you.

We need you to write

that the police have
found his signature.

You can help us by explaining

what his signature is,
in your article.

It's a killer's personal stamp,

his distinctive
touch that he leaves

at the scene of every crime.

Well, I've been doing
this for 18 years.

And I know what a
signature is, honey.

We just really need you
to be detailed about this.

We're speaking directly to him.

Through my column.

He's doing something,

a behavioral impulse he
feels compelled to do.

But a need-driven act
to get a sexual release

that's specific to his psyche.

This repetitive behavior at each
crime scene will lead us to him.

Let me take a stab at it.

Yeah, Reid.

Uh, they just found another body.

They're bringing him up right now.

Teenagers found him a
little over an hour ago.

It's petechiae in the
whites of his eyes.

Judging from the bruising,
he was probably strangled with a wire.

Is this our guy?

It's gotta be.

A jogger doesn't get
garroted every day.

Whatever signature he may have left
was probably washed away in the water.

Well, who's he mimicking now?

Bike path rapist Altemio
Sanchez comes to mind.

He trolled bike paths near Buffalo,
garroting his victims.

It looks like he copied
everything except for the rape.

Strangulation's a repetition

of his last murder, of Zoe.

First time he's repeated himself.

Zoe's murder was
spontaneous, though.

He didn't plan it.
He acted on instinct

and did what came naturally to him.

Maybe what came naturally
felt good to him

and he wanted to feel it again.

If he's starting to
repeat a pattern,

he may have found himself.

Zoe Hawkes.

H-a-w-k-e-s.

Very good.

I'm Danny.

I want you to call us

if you have any questions at all.

We're gonna take great care of her.

OK?

You're all set.

Um, do I pay the bill here?

No, ma'am. The bill's been taken
care of by an anonymous donor.

See anything else in there?

Just the notations of
an observant student.

I've been thinking, though.

Zoe got all of her information
from the newspapers

and from Paula McConnell's column.

There's no way she could have known

about every homicide in the city.

Well, not every homicide's
reported in the papers.

So how do we know the unsub
didn't commit more murders

than the ones noted
in her journals?

We don't.

We can check missing
persons and see if anyone

was last seen in the
unsub's operating zone.

Hmm.

What?

Well, a young person's
mind is so active...

yours, Zoe's, and I
imagine this unsub's, too.

I think when he get him,
he'll be curious.

He'll ask questions.

Rossi, heads up. She knows.

Did you do this?

I don't need or want your money.

I have taken care of my
daughter for 22 years,

and she is still my responsibility.

I don't need any help from you.

You didn't even know her.

I'm sorry if I've offended you.

Just leave us alone.

All right.

We found another body.

East Cleveland.

Strangulation marks.

This was recent.

The bruises on her
neck are still reddish.

No other obvious signs of trauma.

Well, this isn't a bike
path like the last one.

Which serial killer
is he mimicking now?

I don't think he is
mimicking anymore.

He's starting to show consistency.

I think he's developing
his own style.

Has anybody touched her?

No. They have instructions
to wait for us and the ME.

Where's he?

Dr. Edwards!

Here he comes.

Hi. Agent Hotchner.

Um, could you take a look

at this spot on her forehead?

Hmm. That's strange.

Let me swab it and get
it back to the lab.

Thanks.

3 murders in the last 3 days.

Something's causing his frenzy.

Could be a drastic
change in his life.

Something he lost control of.

Or it could be something
he gained control of.

Like himself.

If he's finally defined
himself as a strangler,

he may just be practicing,
perfecting his style.

He may have awakened.

The coroner just called.

Preliminary tests
confirm acetyl alcohol

on the homeless woman's forehead.

He sterilized it?

Why would he do that?

Maybe he did something
to her forehead,

used an alcohol wipe
to remove evidence.

Well, if that's the case,
it certainly wasn't necessary to the crime.

This could be part
of his signature.

We should look at other victims

to see if he did something similar.

Any evidence on the last victim

was washed away in the water.

And all the other bodies were
either buried or cremated.

Except for one.

I know you don't want to see me,
but please hear me out.

We need Zoe's body to go
back to the coroner's office.

Zoe's murderer left
a clue on her body.

There's a chance we can
find him from this clue,

but we have to examine her again.

All I want to do
is put her to rest.

Zoe chose to study criminology

because she believed in
bringing criminals to justice.

Can't guarantee the evidence
hasn't been compromised.

The mortician hadn't
touched her yet.

Even so, she's been transported
more times than I'd like.

Don't want anyone to
get their hopes up.

Just make sure the evidence
gets to Quantico quickly.

East Cleveland homicides,
first quarter to date...

5 out of 9 unsolved.

January 22... prostitute murder,
downtown at 5th and Main.

January 9... man shot
at Kingsbury Park.

February 15...
Kayla James. Lived alone.

First home invasion...

February 8... murder...

young couple shot in car.

No apparent motive.

Investigate.

Why are locations different?

Page 47, Rossi's book:
There are no coincidences.

Garcia, you got something?

Yeah, the boys in the lab found trace
amounts of saliva on Zoe's forehead,

enough for a DNA sample.

So we got a CODIS match
on Eric Ryan Olson,

23, Cleveland native,

did 2 1/2 years for
attempted sexual assault

and was paroled 6 months ago.

We thought for sure
he'd be a student.

Uh, that's 'cause he was.
While he was in the slammer,

he took independent
correspondence classes

in forensic science and criminology
from an out-of-state school.

Call the team.
Let's get a search warrant.

Yeah.

Clear!

Clear!

Reid, check the computer.

Detective, we should talk to the neighbors,
find out where he goes,

where he might be on a week night.

Aaron.

He's reading my books.

Don't know how long, baby

I can hold on

but I gotta tell you one thing

Reid, anything?

Al's Alehouse.
That's like 5 miles away.

It's on the schedule for tonight.

Have a good night.

See you tomorrow.

He was alone at the bar.

When did he leave?

Like 10 minutes ago.

Did he talk to anyone?

Linda.

He left right after she did.

Thanks.

Got it, Hotch. Manager says

he may have followed one of
the waitresses out of the bar.

She walks home through Cedar Park.

We just passed Cedar Park.

FBI! Get off the girl!
Get off the girl!

OK, it's OK. Stay down! Stay down!

Get off me.

It's all right. Wait, wait, wait.

- Hold on.
- Get off me!

Stop! We're trying to help you.

He's my boyfriend!

Didn't see that coming.

How could she not know?

Kenneth Bianchi's
girlfriend had no idea

he was one of the
Hillside Stranglers.

Just like BTK's wife.

What do we know about her?

Her name's Linda Jones.

No criminal record.
They met online 6 weeks ago.

No, he can't be this guy.

We found his DNA
on a murder victim.

What?

We also think he's
responsible for the murder

of 7 other people
over the last 7 weeks.

Two of his victims were raped.

I think I'm gonna be sick.

OK, OK.

Against my counsel,

my client would like
to talk to Agent Rossi.

We talked about him being curious,
asking questions.

If he thinks he knows you,
he might open up.

I'll keep him talking.

Good.

Agent Rossi.

Big fan.

We have some information

that would be of great
interest to you.

My ears are burning.

My lawyer here explains that I'm
being charged with 8 murders

and that I'm probably looking
at the death penalty.

I have one very important
question for you.

Are you sure it's just 8?

What?

We checked missing persons.

Since he started killing,

4 people have been reported missing

in East Cleveland neighborhoods.

We can't rule out any of
them as his possible victims.

He marked pages on
several serial killers.

We don't know which ones
he tried to copycat.

We're screwed, then.

The DA is gonna have
to offer him a deal.

The DA doesn't have to
give him the option.

That's easy for you to say.

You get to go home tomorrow.

What do I tell the
families of the missing?

Sorry, no idea?

Detective, we're not gonna leave

until we can give you and
the families some closure.

And how are you gonna do that?

Hotch. Reid.

I need something, anything,
that might show

where he was trolling
for more victims.

Once the DA gets here,

we have a lot to talk about.

What do you think you're
gonna get out of this?

I don't know.

We'll see.

You don't have to say
anything else, Eric.

You got to speak to him.

Now, let's just wait for the DA.

I don't know how to
break it to you, kid,

but you don't have a
card to play here.

We're 3 steps ahead of you.

Oh.

Really.

We've already considered
the possibility

that you killed other people.

We knew you were young,
wanted to experiment.

It was likely you would copycat

as many serial killers as possible

to figure out who you are

and what you liked.

So let me ask you a question.

How do you know

you haven't told me already

where the other bodies are buried?

We've been through everything.

He marked up Rossi's books.
Check the bookcase.

Maybe he was scouting for
locations to commit more murders.

Pictures.

What?

Framed photographs in his hallway.

Nothing else...
nothing else is framed.

They look like originals.
Let me call you right back, Hotch.

OK.

I need to ask you
about your sex life.

That's personal.

Your boyfriend's a serial killer.

Your relationship is
no longer private.

It's completely normal
to experiment with sex.

OK. It might be normal to
have sex in a public park,

but the other things?

We were just role-playing.

Every couple has fantasies.

Did you ever think it was strange

that your boyfriend has fantasies

about strangling and raping women?

Not women.

Just me.

Did he... kiss you
on the forehead, too?

How did you know that?

Now, were you sick much as a kid?

I got strep throat
every flu season.

Did you just profile that about me?

Her name was Zoe Hawkes...

the girl you killed 3 days ago.

We found your DNA on her forehead.

It'll never be admissible in court.

Her body was removed from
a state facility and...

Now, most people would
ask what you did.

I know what you did.

You kissed her on the forehead.

What I what to know is, why?

Why do you think someone
would do that, Agent Rossi?

Well, that's why I asked
if you had been ill much

as a child.

You see, you're slight,
pale, sickly.

Most parents, they kiss their
children on the forehead

to see if their
temperature is warm.

Now, my theory is that you,
somehow in your development,

warped that caring gesture
into something perverse.

So, did you sit next to Zoe

to see if she got cold?

Is that why you kissed her?

That's a really interesting theory.

Make a great chapter
in one of your books.

Yeah, Reid.

I found pictures on his computer

in a special folder he created.

They're scenic places in the city.

3 of them I recognize
from his crime scenes.

There are more pictures of
places I don't recognize.

All right. Email them
as soon as you can.

This guy's getting
off on those photos.

Then what does he need Linda for?

Did he have any other
strange preferences in bed?

No.

Did he ever role
play by tying you up?

No.

Are you sure?

Yes.

I'm sure.

He liked... he liked
being an exhibitionist.

It was really the only
way he could get excited.

What do you mean?

Well, he didn't... like...

having sex in bed.

So he just took me
to public places.

Where?

Do I have to tell you this?

Please.

OK.

Um...

The first time was...

at Kingsbury Park.

And then...

at a movie theater.

In the parking lot, in my car.

Did he ever take you to
the Second Street Bridge,

off the bike path?

Yeah.

That's where the jogger was killed.

He can only have sex with Linda
when he's revisiting his crimes.

If that's the case,
what were they doing in the park

where we picked them up?

I need you to write down for me

all the places he
took you to have sex.

The DA's not gonna need to
negotiate a deal with you.

Cedar Park, Edgewater Channel,

Cuyahoga Valley Park, Euclid Creek.

We'll send units in the morning
to search for the bodies.

How'd you find out?

Eric.

Is it something that I did?

You needed to revisit
the crime scenes

because it was the only way

for you to get a
gratifying sexual release.

But revisiting the
scenes wasn't enough.

You had to capture it on film,
put it on your computer,

display it on your wall,

so you could look at it every day.

Eric, we should talk privately.

This isn't over.

I always knew I'd end
up back in prison.

Just a matter of when.

You can come interview me,
if you want.

I read in one of your books

that's how you built your
behavioral database, right?

Maybe you can learn
something from me.

I got a lot of questions myself.

I'll be honest with you,
if you're honest with me.

'Cause the one thing
that you always ask

is the one that I don't understand.

Why?

I have no idea why.

I see a guy walking
down the street,

with a stupid look on his face,

and I want to bash him over
the head with a bottle.

To me, that's normal.

It's weird to me that no
one else feels that way.

It's all I think about.

I can't stop.

This is not up for debate.

Cancel the rest of the dates.

Is everything OK?

Why do people want to hear
me talk about serial killers?

Is it that entertaining?

There's a public
fascination with them.

Sometimes I wonder if my books

are doing more harm than good.

My senior year at Georgetown...

I was graduating,
I did not have a clue

what I was gonna do with my life.

And one day, I was in
the campus bookstore

and you were there,

promoting your second book.

Sat through your whole talk.

You never told me.

I asked you what it was
you were most proud of,

and you showed us a picture
of a boy from Charleston.

Brent Roberts.

A neighbor took him.

He was found alive.

One of the few.

That night, I bought your book.

Applied to the academy
the next fall.

I'll see you at the airport.

Austrian novelist

"In youth we learn.

In age we understand."

What is goin' on?

I hear you caught him.

We did.

Is he going to prison?

For the rest of his life.

It doesn't make me feel better.

He's alive, Zoe's not.

But she'd be pleased
that you caught him.

I hope so.
