Summary: BAU newcomer Reid learns an important lesson in profiling
Reid sat down opposite his mentor and now new boss Gideon with a frown. “What’s wrong?” Gideon asked with barely a glance up from his book.
“This case it…it’s bothering me.”
“Why?’
“Well it…it’s just,” he sighed some, “I know, logically, that none of the UNSUBs we profile have a good reason to kill but this new one…” the young man shrugged,” doesn’t seem to have any.”
“What does that tell you?” Gideon finally looked up.
The new profiler shrugged, “Nothing.”
“No, it tells you not everything needs to have a discernable reason,” Gideon smiled softly, “especially with this job.”
