Foyet then provokes the Hotch on the cell phone, and kills Haley with a shot leaving Hotch very shaken, Hotch then faces Foyet and ends up having vantage over him, and Foyet dies. 

Modus Operandi[]

Foyet fights couples on hightways he likes to kill younger woman since he chose to kill Nina with a knife and while Diane he just shot her, this all makes him an Omnivore.

Profiler[]

Foyet is initially a sociopath, who has been profiled as an astute narcissist who has managed to manipulate the authorities so that they surrender themselves to fulfill their goals. He has control needs since he made a deal with Tom Shaunessy only to see him destroy himself gradually after Tom Shaunessy died, so that he would kill again. He has been described as a predator and also an omnivore since he does not have a specific target of a victim. He is disciplined, and thus making it difficult to keep order in his daily life. He is also inflexible since he can not maintain close relationships or work closely with others near him. He is attracked to teenage girls and the BAU believes he may be working as an authority figure in a field involving teenagers or as a middle school teacher, counselor or choach. He also could have made been accused of sex crimes against teenage girls.

He kills his victims with no mercy or pity for his victims. He also wants his friends to die in his hands, because of this that Morgan survived at the end of the episode, because that he was unconscious. To make up for it, The Reaper leaves a 44-degree Magnum round so he knows he could have killed if he wanted.

Foyet is also a mix of spree killer and serial killer. He often altenates by killing sessions and periods of chillingly in the middle, shortly after hiding for months or years to only resume afterwards with the killings again. Quite unlike a typical assassin, Foyet does not feel like dying alone. And unlike a serial killer, Foyet was able to kill several people at the same time, being evidenced after a conversation of him with Hotch that soon after he killed all including the driver shooting and stabbing them to death. For this reason it is very difficult to rank it in any of the categories and it could be a new breed of killer that could be classified in the future later. It can also be argued that Foyet to be a 100 killer, since he killed two people in a certain period of time using a firearm and a knife to cut off his victims.

Rivalry with Hotch[]

FBI analyst Penolope Garcia cross-references Foyet and The Reaper and soon deduces that he and The Reaper are the same people. As a True Crime reporter, interview with Foyet, in which he pulls out a gun and says that The Reaper was found dead. BAU traces Foyet's cell phone and manages to trap him only so he escapes pretending blood loss. In the episode later, The Reaper suppresses the Hotchner sneaking by behind and kidnapping at the end of the screen. 

In season, Hotchner is taken to the hospital more with that of agent Derek Morgan in an attempt try to declare the Hotch as dead. In a flashback Reaper shot him by stabbing him 9 times in total, after which Hotch had to put Haley and his son Jack in witness protection.  

Personality[]

Foyet is a serial killer erratic, he is a sadistic and unspeakable killer and totally unreleting, he is a sociopath two shows no remorse for his and actions and also feels a joy in the suffering of others. He is shown to be totally aggressive whenever he has a chance to kill innocent people; he on the other hand hates couples and other signifacant relationships, he also loves to destroy couples to feed his sadism. He is also misleading and manipulative, and known how to cover his tracks and avoid capture.
