"Now who can tell me what the three sides of the homicidal triangle are?" Professor Emily Prentiss asked her behavioral analysis class. She proceeded to draw a triangle on the white board before calling on Spencer Reid, a thin, brunette in the front row.
"Wetting the bed after age 15, starting fires and torturing and killing small animals." He said before pushing his black rimmed glasses up the bridge of his nose. He sat back, satisfied with his answer.
"Yes, good job Mr. Reid. Now for homework, due next week, please read David Rossi's entire new book. I'll see you tomorrow. Class dismissed." The twenty or so students began to pack their belongings and Emily began to pack her notes and essays in her oversized tote bag.
"Professor, could I ask you a question?" a young, blonde woman came up with her messenger bag slung over her shoulders. Emily turned,
"Of course Ms. Jareau. What is it?" The woman began fidgeting,
"I'm majoring in Public Relations. Is there any way to incorporate analyzing behavior with PR?"
"Of course. The FBI has a very exclusive unit called the BAU or Behavioral Analysis Unit. They analyze serial killers all over the country. A media liaison keeps the press under control and they help with the profiling. Does that help?" Jennifer Jareau smiled,
"Yes, thank you so much Professor." Emily smiled, glad to help and sent Jennifer on her way. As soon as all her students left, Emily finished grabbing all of her things and had put on her jacket, when a knock on the door startled her.
"Yes, come in please." She called out and a man and a woman stepped in. The woman was Erin Strauss, Dean of Georgetown University and Emily didn't know who the man was.
