The Dance Of Love
Cheryl is first seen preparing a drink, which she splashes on Rita's barely-conscious face before dropping a red rose on her. Later, she viciously dunks Dee Stockton's head in the fountain. Cheryl forces a rose in her mouth before pushing her head in the water again, drawing blood. Later, a woman named Janice Fox is complaining to her lover and Cheryl's husband, Craig Keline, begging him to give them a chance but Craig says he's changed. Cheryl calls, causing Craig to walk away, much to Janice's fury. Inside his radio station, Craig meets his wife. She says she has to go to her mother's for a doctor's visit. Cheryl announces she's nervous about renewing their vows. Craig asks her if she isn't having second thoughts. She denies it, but says she's noticed that he's been different - it means everything for her. He tells Cheryl the same. As she leaves, she asks him to play her song, which he accepts.

In the morning, Craig, angered when she called the station to request a song, shows up at Janice's house, telling her he made a big mistake. It is assumed Cheryl followed him or traced either one of them to Janice's house, where she killed and tortured him. The BAU, believing Craig to be the Unsub on his way to kill Janice, find him dead on the bed, covered with roses and turning their attention to Janice as the true Unsub. However, it's Cheryl who is the killer, who by that time is armed with a gun, and is holding Janice hostage in a car. She takes her to a park, to the place where they were supposed to renew their vows. Cheryl tells Janice they took out the "'til death do us apart" phrase from their vows - nothing, not even death, can tear them apart. Everything and everyone couldn't leave them out. But then Prentiss, JJ, and Simmons arrive. Janice runs away as Cheryl holds the gun up to her head, threatening suicide. Cheryl says she's going to join him. She rants that his music, his voice went out to everyone. No matter where she was, she felt the air around her, dedicated to another woman and what she wanted to hear. Simmons lowers his gun and tells her if she commits suicide, she's going to miss it - Craig's final show. He tells her he recorded her favorite songs to play to her last week. She wants to hear it, but Simmons says its in the air around her. Cheryl, feeling the air around her, exclaims she can hear it. Smiling in delight, she lowers her gun as she's arrested. Behind her, Cheryl and Craig's banner announcing their ten-year-and-counting marriage falls, echoing their current state.
