A series of animal-like attacks in Central Park lead the team in pursuit of an Unsub [=UnSub=] suffering from an enormous personal tragedy.



* AnimalMotifs: Wolves. In addition to attacking like one, Reid theorises the Unsub is also showing the more protective nature of wolves towards their offspring, as well as targeting anyone he sees as a threat.
* ManBitesMan: Due to his werewolf delusion, the Unsub kills his victims by biting their throats out, using a special fashioned mouthpiece to accomplish the biting.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: The Unsub's ex-wife has this reaction when she's told her blaming her husband for their son's death drove him over the edge.
* ReplacementGoldfish: The Unsub is quite protective towards a homeless boy living in the park who's about the same age as his dead son. Reid speculates it's a mixture of his guilt and his lycanthropic delusion related to the nature of wolves as devoted parents that's fuelling this part of his psychosis.
* SilverBullet: Invoked by one of the NYPD officers working the case when the BAU mention the Unsub is suffering from clinical lycanthropy.

* TragicVillain: The Unsub is a man who was paralysed with fear during a mugging and unable to intervene when his son fought back and was inadvertently killed by the robber. His wife blaming him for their son's death and then filing for divorce, along with the fact their son's killer was never caught, pushed him over the edge.
* WolfMan: The Unsub is suffering from clinical lycanthropy due to his psychotic break.
* WouldHitAGirl: Initially avoided, but when the Unsub's ex-wife refuses his request to give their relationship another go and insists on filing for divorce, he attacks and kills a young woman out celebrating her engagement.
