Watch Criminal Minds: Evolution Episode 2 “Sicarius”
Previous on Criminal Minds: Evolution Episode 1 Premiere, the BAU is back! The FBI’s elite team of criminal profilers faces their greatest threat, an UnSub who built a network of serial killers during the pandemic.
Warning… Spoilers below!
On Criminal Minds: Evolution Episode 2, a man’s spine was being operated on by an unsub while he was still alert though he couldn’t feel any pain…
Serial Network
At home, JJ’s relationship was suffering. However, she was working on a new case. Several men were found with their spines severed. What they had in common is that the murdered men were “bulls” who were the dominant parties in c*ckold sex acts.
Tara transported the container back to Quantico. The body count rose from 16 to 24 or more.
In Georgia, Elias dug up his entrance to an underground container. He received an encrypted call from the unsub. It was a video of him giving the victim a choice to be a quadriplegic or die. The man chose death, and he obliged. Elias confirmed if he “followed the rules,” and the unsub did. Elias paused communication and then entered his underground lair.
The Feds interviewed the last couple the victim had been with and learned that the killer sent the husband a video. Penelope received an odd message on the secure social media site. Meanwhile, Emily and Tara were being grueled with bureaucracy with Deputy Director Bailey for shipping the “kill container,” which they nicknamed “Sicarius.” The team gathered and pondered what the pandemic did for these killers. Figuring this was a network of serial killers!
Network Down
Elias received an encrypted call from the unsub, wondering why he was shut down. Elias stifled him for a shopping run, where he ran into Tawny.
Penelope phoned Rossi with a thumb drive with clues in their case. Rossi was snappy with her and confronted him to seek therapy after Crystal’s death.
Meanwhile, in Maryland, a woman was abducted with the same MO. The BAU was baffled because he switched sex. They were convinced that the woman’s husband may know the unsub. That he was someone who suffered a recent back injured and suffered from erectile dysfunction. The husband did know she was going to see a bull and questioned him more. He recalled a man…
Penelope received an encrypted call from the social network urging her help with decrypting the data she gave to Rossi. That prompted her to return to the BAU finally. She started mapping the data she received.
Suddenly, a beacon started beeping at the Quantico container. Rossi and Penelope pieced together that’s how the killers received their kill boxes.
Elias got a hit on that the unsub, Robert, had the police on his radar and was closing in. Elias was upset with Robert and called to confront him. Robert hunted without permission, and Elias forced him to commit suicide before the Feds swarmed in.
Elias shut down the beacon network for the kill boxes and started to stalk Tawny. He returned to the west coast and resumed normal family life as a traveling salesman with a family.
Disbanded
The BAU was informed by Rebecca that Deputy Director Bailey was plotting to disband the team. Luke, Tara, and JJ would be reassigned to domestic terrorism units. Emily would be replaced, and Rossi would be forced to retire.
The team sought to turn the nationwide serial killer case into a domestic terrorism case and use Penelope’s help in doing so…
