1
-Hey, Hotch?
2
-Yeah? -I've been thinking. The vast majority of unsubs with this type of M.O. aren't driven by the killing.
3
They're merely fascinated by the body parts.
4
Psychologically, they exist in a realm where fantasy meets delusion.
5
Which basically is the perfect blueprint for the creation of a serial killer bec- I'm rambling, aren't I?
6
-Yes. -Is that one of Johnny McHale's books?
7
-Yeah! It's uh, it's called Blue.
8
It's about a girl who thinks she's a real human being, right?
9
But it turns out she's a robot that was built by her uncle. Heh!
10
-So, it's Pinocchio.
11
-Yeah, it is like Pinocchio.
12
Only, um, set in a high school in outer space.
13
-Brother against brother, that's tough.
14
-Well, according to the Bible, fratricide was the first time of murder ever committed.
15
-That's interesting. Um, anyhow- -Garcia's been digging through William's computer, she found an encrypted link to a web page.
16
-Where'd it take you?
17
-An unsearchable, untraceable blog with tons of journal entries, it's like some sort of diary.
18
-You find anything incriminating?
19
-I was able to differentiate between two distinct voices, two authors.
20
I found various idiosyncratic words, phrases, punctuation,.
21
and orthography within the blog entries consistent with each separate person- Words like "soda" and "pop"- One guy uses dashes while the other uses ellipses. Heh!
22
-Where'd you find this kid?
23
-He was left in a basket on the steps of the F.B.I.
24
-One side of the discourse made reference to the "devil's strip." -What the hell's that?
25
-Uh, it's a small patch of grass that separates the sidewalk from the street.
26
Now, that term is only used in central Ohio.
27
William lived in Atlanta for twenty years, but he grew up in Columbus.
28
The other guy uses words like "turnpike" and "filling the gas tank." Both specific regionalisms for Florida.
29
-Kid, you're sure about this?
30
Right.
31
-So how does our unsub go from loser of the year to Don Juan?
32
-Actually, as Byron interpreted him, Don Juan was an ironic reversal of sex roles.
33
And when ...
34
That's about it, ahem.
35
-Hey, did you know that Carlo Lorenzini, the guy that wrote Pinocchio, was said to be obsessed with the human nose.
36
-Wow. Interesting.
37
Coffee? -I'm alright, thank you though, for asking.
38
You know, if this unsub's using tornadoes as a forensic countermeasure, then Kansas certainly is the ideal setting.
39
Tornadoes do pose a significant threat.
40
During this year's super-outbreak back in April, there were 336 confirmed tornadoes in just several days resulting in over 300 lives lost.
41
A popular theory among leading astrophysicists estimates that the hypermatter reactor would need about ten to the thirty second joules of energy to destroy a planet the size of earth.
42
Now, Lucas said it took 19 years to build the first death star, right?
43
But if you look at The New Essential Chronology, there's a test bed prototype for a super laser that spans- where are you going?
44
I didn't know you were a bad flyer.
45
-I'm not, I just hate turbulence.
46
-You know, turbulence very rarely causes planes to crash.
47
-That does me absolutely no good at the moment, thank you.
48
-What we really need to worry about are microbursts, sudden downbursts of air associated with thunderstorms, but a small craft like this, if we hit one of those at the wrong altitude -boom- pulverized.
49
-I beg of you to make him stop.
50
-Wearing a bride-to-be sash must be like waving a red cape at a bull.
51
-Actually, bulls are colorblind.
52
So it doesn't really matter what color cape a matador wears, it's the cape's movement that elicits an aggressive charge response.
53
But, Morgan's metaphor still applies here.
54
-Wh- are you trying to say you think he keeps coming back here because he's in love with her?
55
-That's impossible, sexual sadists can't feel love.
56
-Well, define love.
57
-Chemically, it involves surging brain elements called monoamines, dopamine, norepinephrine and serotonin.
58
Love chemicals controlled by phenylethylamine, also found in- -Chocolate. I love chocolate.
59
-Peas too! It's also found in peas!
60
Peas?
61
Reid?
62
Indeed- -Reid. Stop, please.
63
-Alright, the first victim was found missing his right leg.
64
The second, both arms, and the third had no torso.
65
So that leaves the left leg and the head unaccounted for.
66
We can assume the head will be the most difficult piece to find.
67
-That part would have to fit an unsub's fantasy perfectly.
68
-So he'd most likely save it for last.
69
Now, what that tells us is there's a victim out there we haven't found yet who's missing his left leg.
70
-Or the unsub hasn't acquired it yet.
71
-True, but most body part collectors evolve to this level and in many cases they exhume bodies for parts before they start killing.
72
-Alright, so tell us about blood drinkers, Reid.
73
-Human blood consumption, or clinical vampirism is known as Renfield's Syndrome Named after the, uh, insect-eating character in Bram Stoker's novel Dracula.
74
-Are they sadists?
75
-Not necessarily. Pain to the victim is usually only a byproduct, uh, blood is the focus.
76
Renfield's Syndrome is usually accompanied by varying levels of schizophrenia and occasionally more classic cannibalism as the condition devolves.
77
I will say this: true cases are exceedingly rare.
78
They mostly just dress up like Prentiss did in high school and play make believe. It's all kinds of delicious.
79
-That's not the same thing at all. As a matter of fact, we should refer to this unsub as vampirist, not a vampire.
80
And they would be attracted to the sub-culture merely for its professed worship of blood.
81
Guys, one more thing, uh, vampirists are coveters. They almost generally always have some sort of relationship with the victim even if it's tangential, and they're likely to become obsessed.
82
They've almost certainly crossed paths in some way.
83
-Is that the one where they fly around in the phone booth?
84
-First of all, it's a police box, not a phone booth.
85
Second of all, Doctor Who started a quarter of a century before Bill and Ted went on their bodacious adventure, so really they should've just called it "Bill and Ted's Excellent Rip-Off." I mean, at least then they would've- -I'm really sorry.
86
-For what? -Asking.
87
We aren't looking for a vampire in the supernatural sense, Only in the sense that this unsub has a very strong desire, a need, for human blood.
88
Now fortunately, vampirists display several characteristics which will be helpful in finding him.
89
Uh, he will have cut himself repeatedly. It's called auto-vampirism.
90
Essentially becoming his own first victim and it's the way by which he first tasted human blood.
91
Most vampirists are incredibly ashamed of this and wear long sleeve shirts in order to conceal it.
92
Secondly, there will be a long history of animal abuse starting with small animals such as insects and rodents and then working his way up to larger things: dogs and cats.
93
Though this is a well-recognized component of the homicidal triad seen in other serial killers, in the case of a vampirist, it's more pronounced.
94
There will, interestingly enough, not be any animal torture, as with other psychopathologies.
95
The killing isn't the point, it's merely a means by which to obtain the blood.
96
Uh, this guy also most likely lives in a poorly-kept, older home.
97
The cool thing about Halloween is that it's a uniquely American holiday.
98
I mean, despite its obvious origins in the Celtic festival of Samhain and the Christian All Saints Day, It really is a melting point of various immigrants' traditions and beliefs.
99
It became a lot more commercialized in the 1950s with trick-or-treat and today it rivals only Christmas in terms of popularity.
100
-All I asked was what he was doing this weekend.
101
-You know, I'm toying with the notion of either going to Edgar Allan Poe shadow puppet theatre or the reenactment of the nineteenth century Phantasmagoria.
102
-I don't wanna know.
103
-Oh, yeah, you do.
104
Phantasmagorias are these amazing pre-cinema projected ghost shows invented in France where the showman attempted to spook the audience using science magic.
105
And, it just so happens that I have an extra ticket.
106
-Tempting. -He's an F.B.I. agent.
107
-Actually, law enforcement officials are just as probable statistically to commit a crime as anyone else.
108
Uh, look at the cross-section of a society, there's a general population and a small faction of this percentage- -He's not actually saying we believe Derek's involved in this.
109
-Oh! No, no, yeah, not at all!
110
I'm merely, um, speaking theoretically.
111
You're Doctor, Reid, right?
112
-Mhm. -Derek talks about you.
113
-He does? -Candles are used in rituals.
114
-Also used on birthday cakes.
115
-Actually, they were usually used to protect the birthday celebrant from demons for the coming year.
116
As a matter of fact, down to the 4th century, Christianity rejected the birthday celebration as a pagan ritual.
117
-What kind of doctor are you?
118
-How'd you crack it?
119
-I profiled the author.
120
Courtland Ryan was on death row with several high-ranking members of the Aryan Brotherhood.
121
-He got the code from the Aryans?
122
-Either that, or he read a lot of 16th century literature.
123
The Aryans like to use a cipher based on a four hundred year old code written by Sir Francis Bacon.
124
So it's a binary code.
125
-Yeah. Bacon used a 21-letter alphabet, this one's 24.
126
Each letter is assigned a bitstring of five binary digits.
127
This combination yields thirty two possible encodings.
128
Normally, you'd use a computer to run all these combinations but it was quicker just to do it longhand until I found the right one.
129
-He's so lifelike.
130
-It's an irrational number known as phi, based on the ratio of line segments to each other, and to the whole.
131
It's called the golden ratio.
132
It's a ratio found all through life.
133
In fact, many people that we find conventionally attractive are proportioned based on that ratio.
134
He, uh, made a reference to Leonardo Da Vinci, remember this?
135
Da Vinci used it in a lot of his paintings.
136
As a matter of fact, The Last Supper is a perfect example of- -Reid, Reid. How do we find him?
137
-Right. The whole concept is represented by this pendant.
138
Including the logarithmic spiral created by using a Fibonacci sequence.
139
Follow me on this.
140
We can manipulate this image, right?
141
-Tell me what you need.
142
-Pull up all the towns that the missings are from?
143
Wonderful. We have one in Richmond.
144
One in Dinwiddie, then two in Gloucester Point, then three in Saluda, then finally five in Loretta this morning.
145
One, one. two, three, five is a Fibonacci series.
146
Each number added to the number before it.
147
It's what his tics mean. He's subconsciously counting off the Fibonacci sequence in his head over and over again.
148
Now geometrically, it can be expressed as a spiral. It's called a logarithmic spiral.
149
Can you put the spiral up on the map?
150
Thanks, okay, now flip it 180 degrees.
151
Now make it bigger.
152
Bigger. Little bit bigger. Stop, stop, stop.
153
The pendant is like a key.
154
Chester, Virginia.
155
-You're sure?
156
-And with his level of obsession with these numbers, the ratio will have culminated his entire life.
157
If we took a city map of Chester, the location where Kaylee and the children are being held will fall in one of these points on that map as well.
158
The ratio works with any scale at all.
159
-I was staring at pictures of the victims, and I knew there was a pattern connecting them but I couldn't tell what it was until I broke it down mathematically.
160
Um, why are we so drawn to celebrity faces?
161
Because of a symmetry to their beauty. The eyes, the ears, the ratio of the forehead to the chin, the more balanced they are, the more appealing they are to our eye.
162
-These women aren't celebrities, though.
163
-No, but there are similarities between them and it wasn't until I scanned their pictures and got it to the guys at Quantico they got a full breakdown.
164
Alright, strip away eye color, hair color, and skin tone, and what are we left with geometrically?
165
He might not even be aware he sees it in them, there have been studies that suggest that we pick our spouses subconsciously based on the facial symmetry that we recognize.
166
Which means he only has interest in the bodies as they relate back to him.
167
-Encryption's a highly specialized skill set, but it's fundamentally a mathematical process, which means it's a human process, so sometimes your technique can reveal where you learned it.
168
I think I know where he learned how to do this.
169
-Where? -Harvard. Which, oddly enough, isn't known for its advanced math program, but it is known for one particular class.
170
When you're good at math, good enough to get into Harvard, you take a math class called Math 15.
171
When you're better than that you take Math 25, but when you're the best, the absolute best, you take Math 55: Honors Advanced Calculus and Linear Algebra.
172
Graduates are immediately employed by the U.S. government because they're too dangerous to work anywhere else.
173
More specifically, they're employed to the NSA.
174
-Your mother's bipolar, and almost certainly an undifferentiated schizophrenic.
175
Your father suffered severe shell shock in the war, what we now refer to as Post-Traumatic Stress DIsorder.
176
As far as I can tell, he remained clinically depressed the rest of his life.
177
53% of all serial killers have some form of mental illness in their family.
178
And in your case, both your parents suffered from psychological disorders, which they largely took out on you.
179
They beat each other, as much as they beat you, so violence became a natural expression of love.
180
There's something called the hypothalamic region of the limbic system.
181
It's the most primitive part of the brain.
182
It wants what it wants without conscience, and without judgement.
183
It's what makes babies cry when they're hungry, uh, scream when they want affection, become enraged when a toy is taken away.
184
In most children, a healthy relationship with their mother counters the hypothalamus, and maps the child's brain into healthy emotional response.
185
Your hypothalamus never learned control, still operates on that primitive level.
186
Your records indicate that you display the symptoms of satyriasis.
187
-You're ... you're obsessed with sex.
188
Sex and love are cross-wired with pain- Additionally, your hypothalamus won't allow you to stop seeking the ...
189
the desire that it wants.
190
So you became a sexual sadist.
191
No functioning sexual parter will ever willingly submit to the painful desires that you have.
192
The only way you can serve them is by making your partner compliant.
193
Making sure that they do exactly what you want them to do.
194
And you ensure that by killing them.
195
Earlier, you said your victims never had a chance.
196
I think you know deep down, it was you who never really had a chance.
197
These are the construction blueprints for the airplane.
198
I compared it to the way the plane broke apart, and I think I may have found something interesting.
199
The whole of an airplane is really just a bunch of round barrels riveted together.
200
The wing, however, is a masterpiece.
201
It's the most physically complicated component of an airplane.
202
Nearly 200 ft long, it bears the weight of the entire aircraft and is shaped precisely to fit within a hundredth of an inch.
203
The curvature of the wing is what gives it its lift. AIr rushes faster over the top, creating a vacuum, which sucks the wing upwards, and in turn, the entire fuselage.
204
This is important because an airplane wants to be nose-up. It creates positive Gs, that sensation you get when you're forced into the back of your seat.
205
Negative Gs, on the other hand, are an entirely different matter.
206
When the nose of the plane begins pitching downwards, you get negative Gs, which puts an enormous pressure on the structural integrity of the aircraft.
207
With enough negative Gs, the wings will start to rip off the plane, which then compromises the fuselage.
208
The plane broke into major pieces along structural joints and attachment points.
209
There's no evidence of gaping holes or pieces of the fuselage torn in areas without seams which suggests impact with an external object, like a missle.
210
So the fact is, the way the plane broke apart, I think the crash was caused by something internal.
211
-But what if we sent in Reid?
212
-I am banned from casinos in Las Vegas, Laughlin, and Pahrump because of my card-counting ability.
213
-Look, I know I'm not a genius like the boy wonder here, but poker is not blackjack. It's about bluffing, reading human nature, headgames, it's not math.
214
-Uh, that's not entirely accurate. There actually is a mathematical equation for knowing when to raise, and when to fold.
215
If P represents the size of the pot at the time of play, then P times n-1, with n representing the estimated number of players at the final round of betting- -Ok, fine, I surrender. Just try not to lose all of my money?

Per affrontare il video con efficacia, è consigliabile seguire un metodo di shadowing in inglese. Ecco una guida passo-passo per migliorare le proprie capacità attraverso il dialogo presentato nel video:
- Ascolta attentamente: Prima di tutto, guarda il video senza sottotitoli. Concentrati sui suoni e sul ritmo della lingua.
- Ripeti in tempo reale: Riguarda il video e prova a ripetere immediatamente dopo il parlante. Usa il shadow speak per imitare la pronuncia e l'intonazione.
- Focalizzati sulle frasi chiave: Identifica le frasi da utilizzare nella vita quotidiana, come quelle elencate sopra, e pratica la loro articolazione.
- Verifica la comprensione: Dopo aver praticato, prova a scrivere le frasi che hai appreso. Controlla se il significato e la struttura grammaticale sono corretti.
- Pratica regolarmente: Rivedi il video più volte nel corso di alcune settimane. Questo non solo rafforzerà la memoria, ma migliorerà anche la tua fluidità.
Utilizzando questo metodo, è possibile migliorare notevolmente la propria abilità nel parlare inglese. Inoltre, combina l’uso di shadowspeaks e risorse come video su YouTube per facilitare il processo di imparare l'inglese con YouTube, rendendolo un’attività non solo educativa ma anche coinvolgente.
Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
