Episode 5: plain sight S1E04: Housebreaker 12 October 2005 Directed by Matt Earl Beesley Writing credits Edward Allen Bernero Jeff Davis (creator) Reprinted from: http://post.baidu.com/f?kz=107853493 Case review: This UNSUB is called Tommy Killer, and the crime took place in San Diego. When BAU received the task, he had committed 6 consecutive crimes within 3 weeks and the frequency was increasing. The victims were middle-aged white women at home alone, and the crimes were committed during the day. The murderer's sign of committing a crime is that he will use tape to stick the victim's eyelids so that they cannot close their eyes. In other words, he wants the victim to see the whole process of his crime. BAU preliminarily judged that UNSUB should be a white male who is very confident in his abilities, based on the fact that the time of committing the crime is high-risk daytime and the murder process is accompanied by rape, and the probability of interracial serial sex crimes is extremely small. of. Just as BAU was further researching the crime scene, another burglary occurred. The victim this time was a woman in her late 60s, much older than the victims in previous cases. Fortunately, the husband went home and interrupted the murderer's crime plan. The victim survived, but the murderer escaped from the scene. Surprisingly, the husband said with certainty that the killer was black. Elle got another important clue from the conversation with the victim - the murderer was masked. Based on this, BAU has concluded that the killer this time is not the Tommy Killer they are looking for. Because Tommy Killer's crime is a major feature of careful planning. He has fully understood the schedule of the victim's family in advance and will not allow her husband to go home halfway. Moreover, Tommy Killer hopes that the victim will see him, let alone stay behind. Live, so there's no reason to be masked at all. Soon, the unplanned attempted rapist was caught by the BAU, and he was indeed a black male in his early 20s, not Tommy Killer. And Gideon came up with a good idea. He asked JJ to be deliberately vague at the press conference, and the media scrambled to report that Tommy Killer had been captured by the police. According to Gideon's further profile after researching the crime scene, Tommy Killer is very much looking forward to getting the attention of the media and the police. Such news will definitely stimulate him and make him want to contact the police in a more direct way. And the next thing they have to do is to open a hotline at the police station and wait. Sure enough, the suspicious call came soon. All the characteristics revealed by the man on the phone matched BAU's predictions. He claimed to be the god of death who never made mistakes, which also matched the words left by UNSUB at the scene. But what the team members didn't expect was that Garcia couldn't track down the call in sufficient time, and she didn't even know how to explain it herself. And the last sentence of the anonymous call is: Tomorrow, take my words, you will see (I promise, tomorrow, I will appear again). Early the next morning, the BAU team was divided into three groups - Gideon & Elle, Reid & Morgan, Hotch solo - squat near the previous crime area. In fact, the scope of Tommy Killer's crimes is very wide, and the team members did not find any abnormality until 10:30, and Tommy Killer has the habit of carefully handling the scene after killing people, so it can only be done before noon. I can hardly sit still. It was at this point that Gideon suddenly got an important inspiration from the bird on the pole. At the crime scene, Gideon noticed the body was placed strangely, with its face out of the window and its back from the direction of the attack. This makes sense now: the murderer wants the victim to be able to see himself after he dies. At the same time, Garcia also determined that the reason why the anonymous calls could not be traced was because the phone lines passed through 25 different substations. Gideon boldly guessed that the murderer was a telephone line repairman. When he works, he is always on a telephone pole, so he has the conditions to spy on every move of every family in the community without arousing suspicion from the police. The tape and wires used in the crime are essential tools for his daily work, and only he can do the trick Connect telephone lines to 25 substations. And, looking out the window where the corpse's face was facing, we saw the telephone poles where the maintenance workers worked. Soon, Garcia gave the mechanic a name: Franklin Graney. Through the information provided by his company, Gideon first arrived at the crime scene, when the killer's gun was already pointed at the victim's head. Gideon firmly grasped the opponent's psychological flaws - hoping to get social attention - and adopted an effective negotiating strategy. He told Franklin: "If he shoots, the police will just say they've caught a nobody, no one will know he's a Tommy killer, and people will forget him very quickly; and if he puts down the gun, his face will show up everywhere in the country. In newspapers and on TV, the whole world will know who he is. Sure enough, the murderer put down the gun and the victim was saved. Quote: French poet Jacques Rigaut said, "Don't forget that I cannot see myself that my role is limited to being the one who looks in the mirror." (Don't forget I can't see myself, the best I can be is a mirror - Jacques Rigaut (French poet)) Rose Kennedy once said, "Birds sing after a storm. Why shouldn't people feel as free to delight in whatever sunlight remains to them?" (Birds sing after a storm, so why can't people enjoy themselves in the sun? -Rose Kennedy) Classic scene: 1. Gideon and Morgan study a crime scene , faced with a lot of clues but can't figure it out. Gideon: Ever feel like there's something obvious right in front of you, you just can't see it? Morgan : Yeah, usually right before a woman dumps me. 2. UNSUB left some words at the crime scene. When Reid saw it, he immediately uttered it from a ballad from the late 17th century. Morgan casually joked that no wonder you weren't dating only literature professors knew about 17th century ballads. So there was this chat between Reid and Elle: Reid: Do you think it's weird that I knew that ballad? Elle: Reid, I don't know how you know half the things you know, but I'm glad you do. Reid: Do you think it's why I can't get a date? Elle: Have you ever ask anyone out? Reid (shifty eyes): No . (The iconic gesture rolls his eyes. No.) Elle: THAT's why you can't get a date. (So you don't have a date.) 3. Morgan and Reid are at the camp. It was almost noon, and Morgan was getting irritable. Morgan: God, I hate not having a plan. We're looking for a needle in a haystack here. Reid: Actually , it's more like we're looking for a needle in a pile of needles. Morgan: What? Reid: A needle would stand out in a haystack. (A needle will stick out in a haystack.)
