Garcia’s computers are hacked into with the message ‘All work and no play’, and a severed head is delivered to Gideon’s cabin.
JJ receives a package containing a rare butterfly; and Reid gets an envelope with a key inside and a note reading “She will die unless you save her, Dr Reid. Call Gideon. He knows.”
The baffled team regroup at Quantico and compare notes.
It turns out that the dead man in Jamaica had a roommate, Frank Giles, who had already left on a flight to Virginia.
Giles, according to Garcia, is also the person who hacked into the BAU computers – but when the team get to his apartment, they find him dead, impaled with a sword through his chest.
On the wall above him is a message written in blood: “Here thy quest doth begin”.
This clue leads the team to a music box concealed inside the wall, containing a lock of hair and a DVD marked ‘The Quest’.
The DVD features a shadowed man, apparently injured in some way, who explains that there is just one rule that they must follow on this quest: only the members of the team can be involved.
After identifying each of them by name, the man announces that they now have everything they need to complete the quest – except “a book that inspired many an adventure like mine”.
Analysis of the hair identifies its owner as Rebecca Bryant, a woman who had gone missing from Boston two years previously.
Then Hotch’s wife Haley (Meredith Monroe, ‘Dawson’s Creek’) arrives with a package that was delivered to their home by a man who told her a girl’s life depended on it.
Despite the instructions that only the team should be involved, Gideon tells Hotch to summon a sketch artist – this delivery man could lead them to the ‘unsub’ (unknown subject).
He also tells JJ to arrange a press conference in the hopes of identifying the man who is taunting them.
While the rest of the team attempt to decipher the strange contents of the package, Hotch tells an exhausted Elle to go home and rest.
After feebly protesting, she agrees – but when she gets inside her house, Elle is greeted by the furious, armed unsub, who has a few questions to ask her about the press conference.
Is Gideon’s insistence on breaking the rules of the quest about to have tragic consequences?
