This latest UnSub has racked up three bodies in three days and yet what’s worrisome is that he’s not acting alone. On tonight’s all new episode of “Criminal Minds”, the BAU had to travel to tinsel town to investigate the three murders. But, unbeknownst to them, the man they’re after is actually very sick.

Danny gets these nasty headaches and the only one that can treat them is a tenant in his building. And while it’s nice of her to help him in his time of need – the young Milena only seems to help when she knows she can get something out of it. And what she wants is revenge.

Apparently, something really bad not that long ago and Milena lost someone. So she told Danny that he has to continue his mission. Which is hurting people. And, as it turns out, Milena’s mother is in on it as well.

This “in” being Danny’s efforts to reclaim the neighborhood from whores and a guy that may or may not be after them.

Two of the victims that were shot earlier were in fact “johns”. But only one of them was found in the company of a prostitute. Thus there’s a witness out there that has seen something and the BAU wants to find her.

However prostitutes generally don’t wish share stories. And that goes extra for when they’ve witnessed a crime.

So when JJ did eventually find their witness, she had to promise the other woman that she wasn’t going to harm her in any way. Which included possibly taking away the other woman’s son. And so after the witness felt comfortable, JJ got the information she needed.

The BAU knew they were looking for a white UnSub and the also got a look into his psyche. The witness didn’t see his face but she knew he was white and she told JJ that he stood over his victim and continued to shoot even though the “john” was dead. Hence he’s in a state of overkill.

But not by choice.

Danny is devolving. He’s been seeing things that aren’t there and he’s moved away from being a vigilante. Instead of killing people he believes to be in the wrong – he’s seeing crimes where there aren’t any.

He killed a young black man who he thought was robbing an older white lady of her purse but the truth is the lady was the man’s teacher and mentor at the nearby community college. And then he killed a guy he thought was raping someone yet what he was actually seeing was a couple making out outside. So Danny is getting worse and an eye-witness (like a distraught girlfriend for instance) was finally able to give the BAU a description.

Hence, the profilers found who they were dealing with and what they had on their hands was a violent schizophrenic. One who hadn’t been taking his meds since his mother died and who ended up having conversations with himself. Like the ones he was allegedly having with Milena.

See, in his delusions, Milena was the one driving him to kill. She told him that he needed to avenge his mother’s murder. And that he had to protect her and mother from the world.

But the Milena he was speaking to and working with – wasn’t real. So Danny thought he had a partner in all of this and sadly he had killed Milena and her mother weeks ago. The bodies of the two women were found out in the yard and Danny merely chose to believe they were still alive.

So much so he even had me convinced.

And as for Kate’s daughter and the daughter’s friend, they went behind the adults’ back and finally met up with the guy they’ve been speaking to online. So, yeah, now the BAU is dealing with a kidnapping that involves one of their own.

THE END!
