- The BAU investigates the case of two murdered families where the oldest siblings are the sole survivors.
- The BAU team members travel to Winona, Minnesota, where three of the four members of the Bergstrom family are shot dead execution style in their home while they are sleeping, with the only surviving family member being high school student Amanda Bergstrom, who only survived because she broke curfew and thus was not home at the time of the murders. Despite being a model family on the surface, Garcia discovers that there were a few skeletons in their family closet which could have been the reason for the murders. Although she couldn't have committed the murders herself, Amanda is also under investigation if only because she is the sole beneficiary of her parents' life insurance policy. The team's other theory - that the Bergstroms were only a surrogate - becomes stronger when the Doherty family is similarly murdered in their home, the only survivor being Matt Doherty, a classmate of Amanda's, albeit without the two traveling in the same social circle. As Matt survived by hiding in a closet, the team begins to believe that who the unsub is actually targeting is the survivors, as both Amanda and Matt were known to have bullied other students at their high school, without any repercussions for their bullying. The theory is thus that the unsub wanted Amanda and Matt to feel the suffering that the unsub himself felt when he would have been their age. Because of the control shown in the murders, the team points the unsub to be in his late twenties or early thirties. But when a third family is targeted, the BAU has the profile figured out, with they needing to narrow down the possible individuals as being the unsub. Meanwhile, Garcia tries to make olive branch gestures to Alvez, which fall slightly flat.—Huggo
