The team goes to the safe house, and they find Sam Kassmeyer bleeding and seriously injured, having previously been shot by Foyet. Sam apologizes to Hotch, and it is revealed that Foyet had stolen Sam's cell phone and repeatedly called random numbers on the speed dial until he eventually reached Haley. On the phone, he pretended to be a marshal and detailed to a terrified Haley that both Kassmeyer and Hotch were dead, so Haley and the new marshal needed to meet at her home. The mortally wounded Sam Kassmeyer succumbs to his gunshot wounds and dies in the ambulance on the way to the hospital. Meanwhile, Hotch calls Foyet on his cell phone and threatens him repeatedly and an unintimidated Foyet responds by telling Hotch that Haley looks good with dark hair. Haley, believing Foyet is the new marshal assigned to protect her and Jack, lets him into the house. During a frantic drive to his own house, Hotch calls Haley and speaks with Foyet. Foyet tells Haley about how her ex-husband broke their deal by still trying to track him down and therefore, he has to kill Hotch's family in retaliation. Hotch informs Jack that he needs to help his dad work the case, and so Jack goes upstairs. Haley tells Hotch he needs to tell his son how they met so Jack would still believe in love. Hotch and the BAU team drive to the Hotchner house, but it is too late; Foyet fatally shoots Haley three times while Hotch and the rest of the team listen helplessly on the phone.
