Leonard's mother is finally nice to him.

The BAU is called to Oklahoma City to help local authorities track a serial killer who removes the eyes of his murder victims.

Reese is accused of stealing at his new job, Dewey tries to convince his parents he can keep a goldfish alive, and Malcolm chafes when a super-genius joins his class.

When the family takes a vacation to a casino, Hal is banned from gambling and takes Malcolm and Reese on an ill-fated trek into the desert. Meanwhile, Lois and Dewey win a free day of spa pampering and Francis spends a lonely weekend at home.

Malcolm gets into trouble with an elderly neighbour, Francis's slacker friend enrols at Marlin Academy, and Dewey trades his backpack for a purse.

The team dives back into investigating a serial killer from the past, attempting to find “The Puppeteer,” who lives with his victims’ bodies before disposing of them. Meanwhile, Brennan works through her guilt over her retirement last year, blaming herself for not stopping the serial killer earlier. However, little does she know she might be in some trouble of her own.
