Truth or Dare
A man who has an obsession with the game Truth or Dare forces people to commit vehicular homicide by threatening their loved ones. Rossi marries Krystall, making her his fourth wife as well as his third.
Tropes
- Anguished Declaration of Love: JJ gives one to Reid to appease the UnSub. She later clarifies that he'd been her first love, but has since moved on.
- The Bus Came Back: Joy hasn't been seen for several seasons, but makes an appearance at her father's fourth wedding.
- Call-Back: All the way back in "L.D.S.K.", when he's fighting hard to make a qualifying score as a marksman, Reid learns of Hotch's ankle-holstered backup weapon. He ultimately took that lesson to heart. Also counts as a 13-years-in-the-making Chekhov's Gun, though Reid states he only started using it after his time in prison.
- Chekhov's Gun: AKA Hotch's ankle holster.
- Chekhov's Skill: Unsurprisingly, Reid's 100 score on the shooting range isn't an idle factoid.
- Continuity Nod:
- Foreshadowing: Luke is both the first and last person Penelope dances with at Rossi's wedding.
- Real-Person Cameo: Rossi's best man is Johnny Mathis.
- Surprise Pregnancy: Matt learns his wife is pregnant for the fifth time.
