A new briefing

Prentiss collected her suitcase from Lisbon's office and ducked into the toilets to get dressed. She was still short of suitable work clothes, but after pulling on underwear she dug out a pair of plain black yoga pants and a white t-shirt. She looked more like she was working out than actually working, but it would have to do until she could get to a store.

She headed back to the office, coming in just behind Van Pelt, whose ripped pants were displaying a pair of pink floral panties.

"Good to see you back." JJ said as she entered.

"What the heck happened?" Prentiss asked, "I was in the building, and then next thing I knew I was outside and naked."

"You were missing for about three hours," JJ replied, "then we got an anonymous tip where to pick you up. "

"So he can get into our headquarters, he dumped us outside, but then let us get rescued." Lisbon said, "It doesn't make any sense."

"It's a warning." Prentiss replied, "He's telling us to back off, because next time it will be worse. He can get at us in the place we think we should be safe."

"So what do we do?" Van Pelt asked.

"We get out ahead of him," Prentiss replied, "figure out his next victim and get a watch on them, then grab him when he attacks. You said some of the victims were students?"

"Four criminology students," JJ replied, pointing at photos pinned to a board on the wall, "and one forensics. Other than that, everyone has some link to law enforcement or city officials."

"So he's got a grudge." Prentiss nodded, walking over to the board, "We caught him in Vegas, and now he's punishing the system for stopping him. Who else is he going to want to punish?"

"I can't help but feel a little ****," JJ said, "I was in Vegas with you."

"I think all four of us are targets," Prentiss agreed, "We need to get officers out to local campuses and protect the students. Can you get me files on local officials, and any adult daughters?"

"I'll get Garcia right on it." JJ nodded, pulling out her phone.

"I'll get on the computer and see what I can find." Van Pelt said, she stood and went for the door, then stopped, "And maybe grab some new pants."

"Oh, I left your blouse and... elasticated support... in the bathroom." Prentiss told her.

"Okay, I did wonder. I'll go grab them." Van Pelt smiled, stepping out of the office into the bullpen, where various other agents were milling around. She failed to notice her jacket snag on the door frame, until she took another step and it was ripped from her body, reducing her to her pink and white bra. As Van Pelt squealed at her exposure more people turned to look at her. She grabbed at her stuck jacket, failing to free it but in her exertion causing her trousers to undo themselves and drop to the floor, leaving her in her underwear.

"I gotta go!" Van Pelt blushed furiously, leaving her suit and dashing for the bathroom to retrieve the rest of her clothes.

"That girl isn't going to need hypnotism to get stripped." Lisbon sighed.
