Damaged


Synopsis:
Rossi reopens an unsolved case from his past, and the team helps him to find answers regarding the murder of two parents who were killed almost 20 years earlier.

Set in:
Indianapolis, IN
Best Moments Between Characters:
  • When Kevin Lynch walks out of Garcia's bathroom naked to find Rossi standing there.
  • At the bar when Prentiss, Morgan and JJ get Rossi to open up about the case.

  • When Hotch started undressing to fight the inmate Chester.
  • When Rossi arrives at the Galens' house and Connie tells him to leave them alone.

  • When Hotch explains himself to Reid after they leave the prison.
  • When Kevin Lynch walks out of Rossi's office and tell him that they need to talk man to man about Garcia.

Best Lines:
  • Kevin Lynch: (to Rossi) "I think we need to have a talk. You know about penelope, man to man?"
  • JJ: (after Haley called her because she couldn't reach Hotch) "That is one seriously pissed off lady."
  • Rossi: "Why do you care?"
  • Prentiss: "Because you do."
  • Hotch: (to the inmate Chester, whom he and Reid were interviewing) "Unfortunately for you I'm not some 5 foot tall, 100 lb. girl."
  • Garcia: "Kevin, if you get within a 100 feet of Agent Rossi, I will unleash an unrecoverable virus on your personal computer system that will reduce your electronic world into something between a Commodor 64 and a block of government cheese."
  • JJ (in front of Reid, Prentiss and Morgan): "Garcia and Kevin, sitting in a tree..."
  • Reid (telling Chester why he killed those women while him and Hotch were locked in the interviewing room): "Your mother's by polar and almost certainly an undifferentiated schizophrenic your father suffered severe shell shock in the war now referred to as post traumatic stress disorder. As far as I can tell you remained clinically depressed the rest of his life..... 53% of all serial killers have some sort of mental illness. In your case both your parent suffered from psychological disorders which they largely took out on you..... Maybe you beat each other as much as they beat you so violence became a natural expression of love..... There's something called the Hypotham region of the limback system. It's the most creative part of the brain. Once were ones without conscious and without judge..... It's what makes babies cry when they're hungry, uh, scream when they want affection, become enraged when a toy is taken away from them..... On most children a healthy relationship with their mothers counters the hypothalamus and maps the child's brain, a healthy......... Your hypothalamus never learned control it still operates........ Pre records indicate you display symptoms of sydariast you're, you're obsessed with sex........ Sex and love are cross wired with pain....... Additionally your hypothalamus won't allow you to stop seeking the desires that it wants, so you became a sexual sadist........ Sexual partners will never be as similar to the painful desires that you had........ Making sure they do exactly what you want them to do and you ensure that by killing them........ Earlier you said your victims never had a chance, I think you know deep down it was really you who never had a chance". (Guards come in to let Reid and Hotch out). Chester (to Reid) "Is that true I never had a chance?" Reid: (walking out): "I dunno maybe".
  • Hotch (to Reid in the car): It was smart to get Harvard to focus on himself long enough for the guards to come back.
  • Reid: "I find that i do some of my best work under intense terror".



The turning point in the investigation:
When the team realizes the "gifts" the unsub had been leaving were cheap - almost like something a child would give out or something you would find at a carnival.


Whodunit?
Joey, The mentally challenged son of a traveling carnival owner. The unsub worked as a sort of clown making balloon animals, and became drawn to Connie, followed her home and accidentally killed the parents.

Trivia
Robert Ressler's third interview with Edmund Kemper is the basis for parts of the episode.

    I don't know about anyone else, but once I saw Hotch take of the sweater-ish part of his suit, my mom and I started to crack up laughing so hard.

    I just hope this will be the episode where he changes his attitude towards the team. Maybe he just needs to get this case closed.....

    In that one scene where Rossi is like "Why do you care?" and Prentiss says "because you do" I thought it was so sweet. I think that if Rossi wasn't so old (no offense) him and Prentiss would make a good couple. And at the beginning of this episode where Rossi had a nightmare about that little girl who was killed, scared the **** out of me. I wasn't expecting it! And at the end where that girl kissed him, I was like awwww!
