Reid was placed in the back of the van and made to stay on his knees. He was placed facing away from the driver's side.

"Just so you know," Peter said," this whole ride, I am going to keep one hand on the wheel, and one hand on the gun aimed at my mother. After everything she put me through, I would feel nothing if she died. However, I get the feeling that you wouldn't do anything to get her killed. If I catch you moving, I will kill you."

He slammed the door, and everything was quiet. Reid thought about what happened. He thought about what they said in the kitchen. Peter's mother kept talking about a "she", but they never indicated whether it was JJ or Garcia. The door up front was opened.

"Get in," Peter ordered.

Reid could feel her terror as she got into the van. Peter quickly shut the door and went to the driver's seat. He got in and started to drive away.

"I think your friend got away," his mother said," I saw some men driving up to the church just as we were leaving. They made Peter nervous."

"Shut up," Peter said," I will kill you."

"If you're going to kill me, then kill me. I'd rather die than see you devolve into the monster you're letting yourself turn into, but you won't," his mother challenged," you won't kill either of us. Not because you'd feel guilty, but because you need both of us to control each other. I never taught you guilt. I never taught you responsibility. I let you use your lack of a father in your life as an excuse to lose your humanity."

Peter sighed and mumbled something under his breath, and then tried to reestablish authority.

"I never really wanted to hurt Ms. Garcia," he revealed," she's the only member of their team who isn't completely jaded, and she's the only woman I've met that I could stand for more than five minutes. I remember the day I decided I was going to do this. I was grabbing a drink after work when I saw you three. I couldn't help but overhear your conversation. I believe you had just found a missing child. JJ said that she considered it to be a win, and you brought up the fact that the majority of abducted children are never found. You and JJ just accepted it as a fact, but Penelope was the only one affected by that fact. I had planned to return to her after I was finished with the rest of you, but I'm pretty sure I'm not going to leave my final location without a bullet in my brain, so we should probably visit her first."


When JJ woke up, she was ready to fight. She was ready to get out of whatever restraints she was in, escape Peter and find a way to save Reid and JJ.

"Woah, easy," she heard Prentiss say," you're safe. Just breathe. We're right here. Breathe."

She turned her head and saw Rossi on the other side of her.

"Reid," she said," Garcia. Where are they?"

They looked at exchanged a look, but Rossi told her.

"We don't know yet," he said," but we think Kevin found the place he may be keeping them."

"But they aren't in the same place," JJ said," Peter moved me first, but he brought Garcia to the place he was keeping me before he took me to his mother's house."

Prentiss and Rossi exchanged another look.

"I'll call Hotch," Rossi said," but we may still find one of them at the cabin."

"Okay," Prentiss said," I need you to tell me everything you remember about the places he took you."

"I didn't get to see much," JJ said," he kept me and Reid in the back of the van the whole time. I'm sure he noticed more than I did. Then when he took me to the other house, he had me drugged. After I saw Garcia, I never thought to look around. His van was in the garage anyway so I didn't get much of a chance to look."

"Do you remember anything else about him?"

"He was really focused on Penelope," she said," before he set the building on fire, he told me that after he was finished with his plan, he wanted to go back to where he's keeping her and spend all his time with her."

"It's okay," Prentiss told her," we're going to find her and Reid."

"Is she in there?"

JJ perked up when she heard the voice of her son.

"Yeah buddy," Will said," why don't we go on in and you can show Mommy the card you made for her."

"Mommy!," Henry exclaimed," I got to go to your work, and uncle Derek let me sit in his chair."

JJ smiled at the sight of her son, and even Prentiss and Rossi took a moment to watch them reunite. The moment was ended when Rossi received a call from a blocked number.

"Hello?"

"Agent Rossi," a young man's voice said," would you like to speak with Ms. Garcia?"

"Who is this?"

"If you want to speak with Ms. Garcia," he said," you will allow me to speak with Agent Jareau."

Prentiss, JJ, and Will could see the concern on Rossi's face and immediately tried to get Henry out of the room.

"Come on big man," Will said," let's let your momma rest for a little bit."

Henry looked disappointed but hugged his mother one last time before leaving.

"Bye, Mommy," he said.

Once they we're sure Henry was out of earshot, Rossi put the phone on speaker and let JJ talk to him.

"JJ?"

"Oh my god," JJ said," Penelope. Are you okay? Where are you is Reid there?"

"Reid's here," Garcia said," and so is Peter's mother."

"Okay, Penelope," Rossi said," is there anything about where you are that stands out?"

There was silence. They could hear quiet murmurs. Then there was a loud crash, and Garcia said something quickly.

'Cameras! He has cameras everywhere and they're streaming to screens in here! They're in our houses, the places he's been keeping us and-"

She was cut off after what sounded like a punch, and a surprised whimper.

"You weren't supposed to tell them that! And you," he said to Rossi," you weren't supposed to say anything at all."

"I'm sorry," Rossi said," I won't say anything. Just don't hurt her."

"No," Peter said," If you can't be trusted to follow the rules then you can't have the privilege of speaking with your friends."


Hotch and Morgan got to the cabin and ran inside.

"FBI," Hotch announced.

No one was there. It was empty. There was a broken plate on the floor, and blood on the doorknob.

They continued to search the building. Hotch found a couch right next to a closet door that had a lock on it.

"Do you think he may have been keeping one of them in here?"

"Maybe," Morgan said," It would have made it easier to control them."

Morgan got a phone call from Prentiss.

"Hey," he said," they aren't here."

"Yeah, we know," Prentiss said," we just got a call from Peter. Garcia said something that I need you to look into. Try and see if you can find a camera in the cabin."

"Okay," he said," I'll take a look."

Morgan hung up and searched around the house, and his eye was drawn to a basket on the top of a cabinet. He picked it up and found a camera inside the basket. Almost as soon as he laid eyes on it, he received a call from a blocked number.

"Morgan," he answered.

"Please put the camera back," Penelope said.

She was crying.

"Baby girl," Morgan said," where are you? What's happening."

He heard a scream of pain.

"Pease just put it back," she said.

Morgan put the basket back on top of the cabinet.

"Okay, it's back," he said," just please, don't hurt her."

It was almost silent. With the exception of Garcia's quiet sobs, there was no noise.

"Don't you ever mess with the cameras again," Peter said," or Ms. Garcia may not be so lucky next time."
