Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Our first UnSub may be one of the most well known in the history of this show. Known for being Aaron Hotchner's counterpart, he terrorized the people of Massachusetts for years, until he offered the lead detective on the case a deal and stopped killing, in exchange for the detective giving up on the case. After the detective died, he offered Hotchner the same deal, but Hotch turned it down. Furious at Hotch, this UnSub made it his mission to destroy Hotch's life. Who is this UnSub, who was killed in the episode "100"?
2. This UnSub ended up on the B.A.U.'s radar when he and a team of his committed a series of murders in Washington D.C. He was on Emily Prentiss' radar long before that, as she knew him from her days at INTERPOL. Eventually, he abducted and tortured Emily, knowing she was part of the team responsible for his incarceration and believing that she was responsible for the death of his son. Eventually, he used a post to stab her dead (or so we thought). Who is this UnSub, who went by the code name "Valhalla"?
3. While this UnSub didn't go after Agent Morgan specifically, the rage that said UnSub caused him made this person the choice for Morgan's counterpart. Dubbed "The Prince of Darkness" by the media, this killer roamed the country, robbing and killing people during power outages. What made Morgan so mad was when this UnSub mercilessly killed the detective working the case despite the detective surrendering, then abducting the detective's daughter. Like Aaron Hotchner did with his counterpart, Morgan killed this UnSub. Who is this UnSub, who had a profound impact on the Spicer family?
4. The people in this group are bank robbers as well as murderers. This team of UnSubs was the choice for JJ's counterpart, as they targeted JJ's future husband (a Washington D.C. cop who responded to the call about the bank robbery they were committing) and son. Their end goal was to blow up Union Station in Washington D.C., but Prentiss was able to defuse the bomb. What is the name for this group, which consisted of Izzy Rogers, Chris Stratton, Oliver Stratton, and Matthew Downs?
5. Penelope Garcia is the FBI tech analyst, so she spends most of the time near her computers, not out making enemies. However, she also counsels crime victims in her spare time, and one time she "tagged" multiple unsolved cases with the same UnSub. This guy thought that Garcia was onto him, so he asked her out on a date, then shot her at the end of it. What is the real name of this UnSub, who was able to infiltrate B.A.U. headquarters and take a hostage before being shot dead by JJ?
6. David Rossi, when asked for his reason for returning to the team, cited "unfinished business" as his answer. The unfinished business, in this case, was a case Rossi worked in which the UnSub used an axe to murder two young parents and left their three children alive. Rossi, upon his revisiting the case with the team's help, realized that the killer must have worked at a carnival. Eventually, they revealed the killer, known only as Joe (no last name), was dressed as a clown, and had the mentality of a young child. This UnSub was brutally strong, with little to no understanding of what he was doing, so the team (Prentiss specifically) compared him to what literary character?
7. Known for being the stalker of Maeve Donovan, this UnSub was the choice for Reid's counterpart. Eventually, this UnSub actually went through with her threats and kidnapped Maeve. Even though the team learned the UnSub's identity early - the UnSub blew it when she referred to Reid as Doctor, despite the fact he was never introduced - this UnSub managed to stay one step ahead until she wanted to be found. When that happened, the UnSub committed a murder-suicide, killing herself as well as Maeve, breaking Reid's heart in the process. Who is this UnSub, who gave Reid a clue to her location by using the mathematical concept of pi?
8. This UnSub was possibly the most prolific serial killer in American history, killing more than 150 people. The choice for Gideon's counterpart, the UnSub was introduced in "No Way Out", in which Gideon and Morgan cornered him in a diner. He was able to leverage a busload of schoolchildren to get the FBI and local police department to let him go with his girlfriend (and creepily, the only person that survived his kidnappings) Jane. He returned later in the season, when Jane escaped and the UnSub thought the FBI had her, so he killed one of Gideon's old friends, as well as Rebecca Bryant, who the B.A.U. saved in a past case, until the FBI gave Jane to him, and they committed suicide. Who is this UnSub, who also had an affinity for strawberry milkshakes?
9. This UnSub was one of the few to target the whole team. What he did was send everyone a clue - Reid got a key, Gideon got a severed head in a box and a Nellie Fox baseball card, JJ got a card with a rare butterfly, etc - and challenge them to put together all these clues to find his daughter, who he kidnapped. He only had one rule: Only members of the team could participate. When Gideon chose to break this rule, the bad guy retaliated by invading Elle's house and shooting her. Who is this UnSub, better known as The Fisher King?
10. This UnSub, eventually revealed to be another FBI employee, was also known as "The Replicator", and for good reason: He/she replicated, or copied, some of the murders that the team had solved previously, including the case of John Nelson, who severed the legs of his victims and replaced them with the legs of other victims, and The Silencer, who sewed the mouths of his victims shut postmortem. Who is this UnSub, who liked to taunt the team and use the word "Zugzwang"?
