Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: Sometimes the day just ends. [gunshot]

Season 4 / Episode 25: - To Hell...And Back Part 1

Aaron "Hotch" Hotchner: [Final monologue] Sometimes there are no words, no clever quotes to neatly sum up what's happened that day. Sometimes you do everything right, everything exactly right, and still you feel like you failed. Did it need to end that way? Could something have been done to prevent the tragedy in the first place? Eighty-nine murders at the pig farm. The deaths of Mason and Lucas Turner and make 91 lives snuffed out. Kelly Shane will go home and try to recover,to reconnect with her family, but she'll never be a child again. William Hightower, who gave his leg for his country, gave the rest of himself to avenge his sister's murder. That makes 93 lives forever altered, not counting family and friends in the small town of Sarnia, Ontario, who thought that monsters didn't exist until they learned that they spent their lives with one. And what about my team? How many more times will they be able to look into the abyss, how many times before they won't ever recover the pieces of themselves that this job takes? [a hooded figure appears behind Hotch, he turns around, facing the barrel of a gun] Like I said, sometimes there are no words, no clever quotes to neatly sum up what's happened that day.
Man: You should have made a deal.
Aaron "Hotch" Hotchner: Sometimes, the day just... [gunshot]... ends.

TRIVIA

Much of the storyline mirrors a real life case, where several dozen street people, almost exclusively prostitutes, living in Vancouver, British Columbia, went missing. Their bodily remains were eventually found on a pig farm in the city's suburbs.
This episode features two separate plot lines, both of which contain omnivores. The main plot of the story is about a killer who uses pigs to dispose of bodies of his victims, pigs being omnivores (they will eat pretty much anything.) The climax of the episode involves George Foyet from the episode "Omnivore", an escaped serial killer who the team profiled as an "Omnivore" in that episode.
