Goren and Eames track a spree killer who's targeting victims connected to his own family.
!!This episode provides examples of:
* DramaticIrony: The audience knows from the teaser that Paul Devildis is the killer, but detectives interview him twice as a person connected to the victims before they realize he's a serious suspect.
* ImperiledInPregnancy: Paul Devildis' first victim is his pregnant sister-in-law.
* PaterFamilicide: Paul intends to take out his entire family, as well as a few other people he believes have contributed to their misfortune. He succeeds in killing his sister-in-law, her husband, his wife, and two non-family members, but his daughter and mother are saved from his rampage.
* RippedFromTheHeadlines: Borrows heavily from the List family murder case.
* TooGoodForThisSinfulEarth: Paul's reason for killing his family is that he believes the Earthly world is corrupting them and wants to send them to Heaven before they can further compromise their souls.
* YouJustToldMe: Goren uses a trick of this type to try and get Paul to reveal whether Kathy is alive or not, asking him why he spared her life. Paul tries to evade the trap by giving Goren an ambiguous answer that doesn't confirm the premise of the question, but as it turns out, this still gives Goren the answer he needs -- Goren knows that if Paul ''had'' killed Kathy, he would just say so, so the fact that he's hedging could only mean Kathy is in fact still alive.
