** The episode spends some time following a mother who was one of the various people who lost her children in a fire and are in a support group (which the killer is using to target them). She is the one member who is most visibly depressed, but when the killer approaches her to offer her a MercyKill, she turns into a DefiantCaptive and is responsible for his arrest.
* NeverSuicide: A suspicious sudden spike in suicides in the community is believed by a detective to be the work of a serial killer, and he turns out to be right. Subverted when it turns out that the suicide that made the detective suspicious (that of his brother) is investigated by the BAU and they have to tell the detective that it did not fit the killer's MO (the brother killed himself in the bathtub, the serial killer was fond of hanging his victims).

* ThereAreNoCoincidences: Double-subverted for drama. The one suicide the detective that calls the BAU actively hopes is not a coincidence turns out to be a coincidence. At least the guy who killed everybody else was brought to justice.
