When one of the profilers in the FBI's L.A.-based Violent Crimes Unit (VCU) is brutally murdered by a serial killer they've been tracking, rookie FBI Agent Rebecca Locke is recruited to join the team and help find the madman despite her lack of field experience. Unbeknownst to Rebecca, famed Supervisory Special Agent VIRGIL "WEB" WEBSTER has personally selected her to join his rogue division - not for her impressive profiling skills, but because of a secret she's keeping. Web knows that Rebecca was abducted and held captive as a child, and the traumatic experience has afforded her unique insight into the mindset of villain and victim alike.

this was the first episode where the main plotline started to appear, it seems?
Seven episodes originally aired on FOX between June 8 and July 13, 2005. The other six episodes that were unaired by FOX first aired in the UK on ITV4 in 2006. Fox aired the episodes out of order. The episode listing here is the correct viewing order, not the airing order. Creator Tim Minear posted the correct episode order on his website.
