,Do you remember the little splitter which Emily found at the crimescene of the first body?... It was so small that the forensic overlooked it during the first tests, but when they ran everything over again, they found it. There was blood on it, so they ran a bloodtest, turns out we got a name. He is previously convicted and he fits th..." ,Garcia, tell us the name!", Hotch interrupted her. ,Oh yeah, yeah... his name is Thomas Merrick."
When he heard the name he was brought right back into his nightmare. The one person, he never wanted to see again. The one Person, he had to protect her from the most, he was back. At the thought of her, Rossi snapped out of his thoughts. He didn't even think of letting Garcia say the end of the sentence she was working on. ,Hotch, take Jennifer of the case!" Everyone was shocked for a moment. ,Wait, what?" Everyone was thinking the same ' why should Hotch take JJ of the case' and 'why did he call her Jennifer, he never did this'. ,Take her of the case!" Suddenly it clicked in Emilys head. , Are you sure, Dave? When she told me, it didn't seem like it would take such a big toll on her, i think she could cope with it. ,I am damn sure!" ,Would somebody please tell, what is going on?!" Emily and Rossi both looked eachother in the eyes and Emily could see the anger flashing in his eyes, she though, was worried. She knew he was just trying to protect her, but she wasn't so sure, if this was the right way. ,No! Trust me with this one and just do it! Nobody is allowed to tell her his name! Garcia, did you hear this? NOBODY!"
Behind the phone, Garcia swallowed: ,Yes, sir!"
Morgan and Hotch both wanted to argue - Why won't he tell us?- but one glare from Emily told them not to. Hoth grabbed his phone to call Reid and Morgan told Garcia to call back later.
