"The Replicator's here in New York." JJ said. She was on the phone with Will. "He took pictures of us and hacked into Garcia's system. I know, I will. I love you too. Bye." She hung up and answered Garcia, on speaker. "Hey Garcia."
"Are you guys okay?" Garcia asked.
"Yeah, yeah. I got Derek with me. Everyone is meeting at the hotel." She answered.
"I don't know how he got in." Garcia sounded upset.
"I'm gonna shut down the system before the Replicator can." Kevin reassured her.
"I'm so sorry." Garcia cried. "I check everything. I upgrade constantly."
"It's not your fault, Penelope." JJ said. "He's just that good."
"And he wanted us to know that he's here hunting us." Morgan chimed in.
"Hold on. You got an external override. And if the only way to get in is with the pre-authorized hard line and he didn't get in via Quantico…" Kevin said.
"Oh my God. He was in my house." Garcia freaked out.
Rossi was trying to call Strauss. "Strauss isn't answering."
"Keep trying. Reid, any luck with Blake?" Hotch asked.
"Not yet. Gen won't answer either…" Reid was so worried.
"Wait she never came to find you?" Rossi asked.
"No. Was she looking for me?" He asked.
Rossi called JJ. "JJ is Cortese with you and Morgan?"
"No she went to find Reid. I assumed she would be with you guys." JJ told him.
Reid tried Genevieve again. He got her voicemail. "Babe where are you? Please call me back." He finally got Blake to answer. "The Replicator's back. We'll pick you up in a few minutes."
They got to the hotel and Rossi went into Strauss's room. The room looked like there was a struggle. There were empty mini bottles of alcohol on the floor. "She wouldn't sleep with the window open…"
"Did something happen to make her drink again?" Hotch asked.
"No! She was working real hard at-" He picked up a chip. "This represents a year sober. She hasn't let go of it since she got it."
Reid answered his phone. "Garcia?"
"The Replicator has Strauss and Gen!" Garcia was watching the live video feed of them on her computers. "Sending you the video now…"
"Gen…" Reid teared up when he pulled the video up.
"Strauss it will be okay. They will find us." Genevieve said in the video. "I believe in our men." She laughed.
Strauss laughed. "Thanks. I needed that."
The Replicator called Rossi. "Hello Agent Rossi. I want the team to pick who lives. Strauss or the newbie?" He laughed.
"We won't do that." Rossi said.
Cortese was so close to cutting through the ties around her wrists when she dropped the knife. "Damnit…" She noticed Strauss was barefoot. She kicked it to her. "Pick it up with your foot and try to get it into your hand. One of us at least needs to get out of here."
Strauss got it and cut through her ropes. She went to help Cortese.
"Zugzwang." The Replicator said and hung up.
Cortese and Strauss heard him coming down. "Run." Cortese said to Strauss. "Just go. I'll be okay…" The video feed went black.
"I got a trace on the video." Garcia said. "Sending you the address now."
The team went to save them. Strauss was hiding in the woods. She came out when the team got there. "David!" She hugged him. She was freezing. "He took her. I am so sorry. I never should have left her in there alone…"
