* DisabilityAlibi: Inverted. After the [=UnSub=]'s rampage in a parking lot, the BAU wonders why the killer did not tried to get out of the car and catch up to the attempted victim on foot at any point, when the victim ducked between cars to run away. This quickly leads to them figuring out that it's because the killer is physically disabled and needs the truck both as a weapon and to move around.

* PoorCommunicationKills: Hotch explained everything about the [=UnSub=]'s situation to their local police contact... everything except "don't try to confront him with what really happened, it will just agitate him further", he waits until the officer is in the middle of doing just that to try and explain it to him (over a lot of engine noise and Hotch being stuck inside a car). Luckily the [=UnSub=]'s reaction is that he's DrivenToSuicide instead of trying to kill more people. Still, while he clearly doesn't think it's the optimal outcome, Hotch apparently agrees with the officer that it's not worth losing sleep over.
