Top 1000 Quotes From Criminal Minds

Captain: Without any bodies turning up over the years, we debated if the three women just decided to up and leave their lives. It happens. But now with that chef gone missing...
Emily: Well, we're happy to help.
Captain: I should warn you the media's been reporting that the BAU's been called in on this. Before I got here, the relative of a woman who went missing years ago came in demanding to talk to you.
Jennifer: News stories often bring all kinds of people out of the woodwork.
Captain: This one's different.
Jennifer: How so?
Captain: Her name is Joanna Miller, and her sister Chrissy vanished five years ago. Any time there's a missing person case or a woman's body is found, Joanna shows up.
Emily: But you don't think Chrissy's case is related to the recent abductions.
Captain: She was sixteen and in all sorts of trouble; drinking, drugs. Chronic runaway. My heart goes out to the family, but no, I don't.
Jennifer: I can talk to her.
Emily: Let's bring her in.

Jason: I'm not even happy with the results when God plays God.

Jennifer: [Reads sheet of paper, takes a deep breath, calls someone] Hey, it's me! Got a minute? Yeah, fine, fine. Eh, we just really need to talk... I'm pregnant!

Alex: There you are. How's the geographical profiling going, and why are you doing it in here?
Dr. Spencer Reid: It's going good. I'm-I'm having trouble concentrating out there is all, so I came in here.
Alex: Hmm. So, what's with you today? Is this about... Phone Booth Girl?
Dr. Spencer Reid: She wants to meet.
Alex: Wait. You guys have never met?
[Reid shakes no]
Alex: Aren't you curious what she looks like?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Oh, it-it doesn't matter what she looks like. I mean, she's already the most beautiful girl in the world to me, it's just... what if SHE doesn't like ME?
Alex: Why wouldn't she like you?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Because I'm weird. I slouch, my hair's too long, my tie's perpetual crooked.
Alex: You hair's fine.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Really? Thanks. My mom thinks it's too long, so does my aunt Ethel.
Alex: Well, you're not dating them.
Dr. Spencer Reid: It's... I-I just wouldn't wanna ruin something so special over something so trivial as looks.
Alex: I think you're excited, but afraid.
[Reid shakes yes]
Alex: Seeing her will only make the relationship better. Trust me. When does she want to meet?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Right when we get back.
Alex: Do it. Don't psych yourself out.
Dr. Spencer Reid: We'll see.

Alex: 2 out of 10 again. But this is the third victim that we know about, so it can't be about a hit list.
Dr. Spencer Reid: 2 out of 10 isn't a countdown at all. I think he might be referring to a hobo code.
Alex: From the Great Depression?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Exactly. It means two eyes on ten fingers because thieves are present.

Alex: Well, when we get back to the station, you can help the police artist render a likeness?
Madison: No.
Alex: Excuse me?
Madison: You have no idea what it's been like. The past two years I wake up every morning scared to death. Terry was crazy violent and nobody would do a single thing about it.
Alex: He was issued a restraining order.
Madison: Oh, yeah. You saw how restrained he was. You want to see what he did once? I was cooking dinner, he got mad and threw scalding oil at me.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Did you press charges?
Madison: Terry told everyone it was an accident that I dropped a frying pan.
Alex: But the police would have investigated, Madison.
Madison: Terry's Mr. Charity fund-raiser, all-around good guy at the country club. It was my word against his. Please, give me a break. But it's over now, thanks to that guy... I hope you don't find him. Whoever it was, I hope he gets away.

Dr. Spencer Reid: Let's concentrate on the note. For starters, we know that he is male
Dr. Barton: How can you be sure?
Emily: Women tend to add adjectives and very specific details to their notes. This has none of those
Dr. Spencer Reid: Males are also more direct. First sentence: "I plan to kill your son"
Emily: And their notes tend to be more about themselves than the person they're writing to: "I watched you every day", "I will watch you lose everything"
Dr. Spencer Reid: We know he surveilled you and your son, which means he either has enough money to be away from regular job or he's currently unemployed

David: This car becomes an abduction vehicle and a dumping site.
Dr. Spencer Reid: According to missing persons' reports, he holds on to them for all about a week. Do we know what he does with them during that time?
Penelope: Yes, unfortunately we do, and that information is on your tablets in picture form. And if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go to my happy place.

Emily: I wonder why some men are like Craig Kaline
Dr. Tara Lewis: What? Horn dogs you mean?
Emily: Is that the medical term?

Aaron: We're looking for a physically fit male from his late twenties to mid-thirties.He's brazen, confident, and organized.
Derek: This person may be a moral vigilante. Abby Stafford had drug issues, Gloria Carlyle moved in with her boyfriend, Parker Mills was a sexual deviant.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Moral vigilantism typically has its roots in repression and guilt. This generally manifests itself in low self-esteem and self-loathing. By punishing others, the unsub may also be punishing himself.
Aaron: He's also literally branding his victims. We're not sure why, but he's likely marking them as his own.
Alex: His organizational skills suggest someone who can get and keep a full-time job.
David: But the work is likely low-level. His impaired social development would not allow him to move very far in the professional world.
Jennifer: Consequently, this is someone most comfortable working in solitude, having minimal interaction with others.
Derek: And this makes it a challenge to determine how and where this person is choosing his victims.
Dr. Spencer Reid: The two female victims were reserved and studious; Parker Mills lived quietly in the margins of conventional society.
Jennifer: So the killer may frequent or work in locations that attracts this type of person. Uh, places of solitude, contemplation.
Alex: Museums, gardens and parks, bookstores.
David: His choice of a city square, rather than a remote canyon, means he's gaining confidence.
Derek: But the recklessness of killing in such a public space suggests that this confidence may be stemming from a delusion.
Jennifer: He may believe he's in a place in time that makes him invulnerable.
Aaron: And if his delusion is gaining in strength, then his next killing may be riskier and more dramatic. Thank you.

Emily: Did you hear?
Fiona: That's why I'm here. How did you hear?
Emily: I got a call...
Fiona: Wait, no. I withdraw the question. It's better for me not to know.
Emily: How bad is this?
Fiona: Oh, we need to talk to Spencer.

Penelope: [panicking] I'll let you know if I find anything, you'll let me know when you find anything, but we need to find something

David: Scars remind us where we've been. They don't have to dictate where we're going.

Emily: If you get close to him, you won't miss him. He will smell like a combination of human filth and paint thinner.

Jennifer: What the hack is going on here?
Penelope: The NSA is routing all messages to us for language analysis. You know, rumor has it, much to my chagrin that during national security emergencies our fair country turns all of its satellites homeward and record all electronic traffic in the whole of US of A
Jennifer: Is this even legal?
Penelope: Yeah, I don't really want to think about that right now

Jennifer: Naming the unsub is a grave mistake. It romanticizes him in the public's mind and in turn gives him a sense of power and control he desperately craves.

Derek: OCD? I'm thinking more like OMG.
Elle: OMG?
Derek: 'Oh my God'.

Jennifer: Garcia?
Penelope: Come get it, Bae.
Jennifer: The land that was flooded to form Lake Palmer, did anyone live or work out there?
Penelope: It's pretty remote country, but yeah, it looks like there were three homes in the canyon.
Luke: I assume they were all subject to eminent domain?
Penelope: Correct. The city bought out those three families.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Do we know what happened to the residents?
Penelope: Two of 'em moved to houses by the side of the new lake. The third one is proving to be a little trickier.
[finding a result]
Penelope: Bob Turner, an off-the-gridish type, but he vanished right before the new reservoir was created. I don't have a trace of him after that, but fret not. There's the grid and then there's the Garcia grid, and that one is not as easy to stay off of. Do you know what I'm saying? Of course you know what I'm saying. Goodbye.

Elias: 2000 Petrus?
David: No, thanks.
Elias: What, do you think I'm gonna drug you?
David: Your body count is up to 52.God knows how many more. I'm not taking any chances.
Elias: I have these friends, Dan and Sheila.I... Actually, they're podcast hosts. Anyway, they have gone through every single one of your cases, and they have a pretty compelling argument that the Behavioral Analysis Unit is secretly terrible at profiling. Like right now, for instance. Why did you come in here, Dave? To make a deal. Do you have the authority to do that?
David: It's a gentlemen's agreement. You let Sydney and your daughters go, I'll let you go.
Elias: You think I would trade my family for my freedom? I love them.
David: I believe you. Oh. And that love makes you unique among psychopaths. And that's how I knew I would catch you through your family and why it would be difficult to kill them. Harlow especially. But you will.
Elias: Jesus. Dan and Sheila were right.
David: You've had intrusive thoughts about murdering them ever since Cyrus. Haven't you? Ohh, that's a yes.There's a term for what you're going through. It's called devolution.
Elias: Yes, I know what devolution is
Elias: .Then you know it never ends well.
David: Here's what I think. I think you're devolving a bit yourself because I'm here and you can't do anything about it.
David: Well, maybe you should stay right there and keep your hands where I can see them.
Elias: What? You're gonna shoot an unarmed man in his own house?
David: Well, maybe I am devolving.My career is over. What the hell have got to lose?
Elias: That is an interesting question, but it's not the most interesting question. The most interesting question is why would I need drugs and the wine and a gun in the kitchen when you're a 70-year-old man... and I'm not?

Dr. Tara Lewis: All right, the victim's name is Carl Kevork, and he escaped the crash with only minor injuries. The EMTs who transported him to the hospital said he had been heavily drugged, most likely ketamine, like the others.
Matt: Carl's a big guy. The unsub must have gotten the dosage wrong.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, Carl doesn't remember much. I mean, he recalls running down an alley, seeing a van, getting inside.
Dr. Spencer Reid: We profiled he'd be unemployed. It looks like our unsub's been living out of this van for a while.

Penelope: You know, he might have killed two women. It's not your job to hold his hand through this.
Dr. Spencer Reid: [shakes his head] It's like with my mom. I used to think that if I could just understand absolutely everything there is to know about schizophrenia, then I'd somehow be able to fix it.
Penelope: You can't. I'm sorry.
Aaron: Hey, guys, I need everybody in the conference room. If Nathan Harris isn't our unsub, we need a working profile.
[Garcia kisses two fingers and plants them on Reid's forehead]

Penelope: Rainmaker. How wet do you want it?
Aaron: It's Hotch. I have a cell phone number, and I need the name on the account.
Penelope: Yeah. If you call the cell, I can throw in the real-time location, no charge.
Aaron: Are you ready?
Penelope: I was born ready.

Penelope: You may be a wizard, but I am an oracle of the highest order

Jennifer: We think Tobias Hankel may have murdered his father.
Mickey: Good for him!

Penelope: His credit card says Miami, but not all of his alibis check out. And you know if there is one loose thread, I will find it, I will pull it and destroy and completely unravel! A tout a l'heure!

Derek: My bomb fragments, let's start putting this bad boy together.
Penelope: Why bother, don't you just dust for prints and... stuff?
Derek: Garcia, what are you doing in the FBI?
Penelope: I didn't get into medical school.

Penelope: And what is weird on top if weird is that all that listing and watching completely stopped 6 month ago

Aaron: [closing quotation, voiceover] "There is no witness so dreadful, no accuser so terrible, as the conscience that dwells in the heart of every man." - Polybius.

Penelope: San Bernadino, California. Two home invasions in less than a week, only a block apart. Exact same M.O. Both houses were burgled, power and phone lines cut, and they broke in through a back window.
Dr. Spencer Reid: And in each case, the entire family was shot and killed?
Penelope: Yes, that is right. I present to you the Mitchells and the Lewis families.
David: They took out the power and phones to isolate them. Their alarm systems wouldn't work and they can't call for help.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Most modern alarm systems have a backup generator and a cell phone connection to the security company.
Penelope: Yeah, but the Mitchells had an older system, and the Lewises were behind on their account, so it was inactive.
Jennifer: An assailant was killed in each case?
Penelope: Affirmative, but the sheriff hasn't IDed them yet.
Emily: So both families were armed and fought back and shot one of their attackers.
Derek: Is that a coincidence or a connection?
Aaron: What concerns me is the frequency of the kills.
Jennifer: Only four days apart.
Aaron: All right. It's a long flight. We'd better get going. Wheels up in thirty.

Aaron: [voiceover, opening] The single biggest problem with communication is the illusion that it's taken place. - George Bernard Shaw

Aaron: Hold on! Can you rewind that about 5 seconds? Take a look at Renee.
Alex: She's stealing!
Detective: She's a strip-miner! I can't believe I missed that. Strip-miners take money or chips left behind or unwatched by careless tourists. They dress to look like tourists themselves so they are not spotted by casino security.

Derek: You know what your only mistake has been since you started?
Penelope: Oh, hooray. More criticism.
Derek: You are trying to replace J.J. Nobody can replace J.J. Now, take the other one out, too.
Penelope: I'm not trying to replace her. I'm... I'm trying to do this job the way she'd want it done.
Derek: You know what J.J. would want? She'd want you to find a way to do this job on your own terms. Play to your strengths.
Penelope: Okay, all my exstensive knowledge of operating systems and internet protocol is not really gonna help me out here.
Derek: That's not what I'm talking about.
Penelope: What are you talking about?
Derek: You need to go O.G. Original Garcia.
Penelope: Derek Morgan, I'm a little blind right now, but it appears the rough blur that is you just threw out my only pair of contact lenses.
Derek: [putting Garcia's glasses back on her face] There she is. I know you.
[Morgan gives Garcia a teasing wave]
Penelope: How often do I tell you I love you?
Derek: Every day. It's implied.

Derek: "Hunting is not a sport; in a sport, both sides should know they're in the game." ~~ Comedian Paul Rodriguez

Penelope: Excuse me, sir. You have a visitor.
Jack: [running into the room] Dad!
Aaron: Hey.
[Jack climbs onto the hospital bed and hugs his father]
Aaron: Easy.
Jack: Are you okay?
Aaron: I am now.

David: Roadblocks aren't gonna work!
Sheriff: Why's that?
Emily: He's not on the road.

Jason: [voiceover] Dale Turner mused some of the best lessons are learned from past mistakes. The error of the past is the wisdom of the future.

Dr. Spencer Reid: [voiceover] T.S. Eliot wrote "Between the idea and the reality, between the motion and the act, falls the shadow."

Emily: [opening quote] "When there is pain, there are no words. All pain is the same" - Toni Morrison

Derek: You are the light of my life, sweet lady.
Penelope: Je suis toujours ici pour toi, mon cher.
Derek: Drives me crazy when you talk this "voulez-choucher" to me! Stop it!

Courtney: So, how many of these cases have you worked on?
Emily: Too many
Courtney: How many of the women have you gotten back alive?
[Emily stares, no answer]

Jennifer: Nobody saw anything.
David: Even if they did, it's Halloween, could be in costume, we could be looking for SpongeBob for all we know

David: [discovering his old Marine sergeant homeless and living on the streets] How long have you lived like this?
Harrison: I worked construction for a while, but no one wants an old man on the job when they can get somebody younger and cheaper.
David: How long?
Harrison: A year. Maybe five. It's hard to keep track without a watch.
David: Then let me help you.
Harrison: If I had wanted your help, I would have asked for it.

Penelope: You know what? Send me that broken cell phone. I may be able to pull data from the device itself.
Aaron: And in the meantime, forward Delfino's calls to us. If she tries him, we'll be able to talk to her.
Penelope: Smart thinking, *sensei*. Routing it now.

Dr. Spencer Reid: [voiceover] "It has been said time heals all wounds. I do not agree. The wounds remain. In time, the mind, protecting its sanity, covers them with scar tissue, and the pain lessens, but it is never gone." - Rose Kennedy.

Emily: [Picks up her phone] Garcia, what have you got?
Penelope: I have a great deal of rage and sorrow over reading a whole bunch of sexist, racist and homophobic rants
Emily: The "No Means Yes"-website?
Penelope: Yes, and by that I mean yes

David: Hey? You're sure you're okay?
Alex: Oh yeah! It's nothing.
Dr. Spencer Reid: A couple of inches to your right and he could have hit your brachial artery. All things considered you were extraordinarily lucky.
Alex: Yeah, luck had nothing to do with it, I'm practically bullet proof.
David: Yeah, I heard that about you.

Detective: They haven't left. The mayor personally set them up with a penthouse suite at the Harrison Grand, but they won't go.
Jennifer: They can't. You're their only source of information. To be even a minute away would add to their torture.
Detective: I've kept them away from the suspects. Now, I don't get why you want them together.
Aaron: Trust me.

Derek: What do we got, baby girl?
Penelope: Thank you, sir. We have a killing in Enid, Oklahoma, and not the capital punishment one you are thinking of right now. I'm talking about a woman named Cara Smith, who was murdered in her apartment minutes after the execution of Rodney Garrett.
Aaron: A neighbor saw her front door open and discovered the body.
David: Look familiar?
Jennifer: Young, pretty, short blonde hair.
David: And stabbed directly through the heart.
Dr. Spencer Reid: That's exactly the way Garrett killed his victims.
Derek: So are we looking at a copycat?
Jennifer: Or someone creating doubt the right person was executed.
David: In Garrett's case, there was no doubt. His guilt was the slam dunk of all slam dunks. Prints, DNA, a confession.
Dr. Spencer Reid: He even led police to where he buried two of his victims.
Emily: Garrett killed twenty-five women before he was caught. If this new unsub is a copycat, body count's just started.

Attorney: I'm the Attorney General of this state. I demand to know why I wasn't told that the FBI was sending undercover agents into the Septarian ranch.
Aaron: The only thing that you're in a position to demand is a lawyer.
Attorney: Who the hell are you?
Aaron: I'm Aaron Hotchner, Unit Chief. I'm the guy who's gonna tell the Attorney General of the United States whether to charge you with obstructing a federal investigation or negligent homicide.
Attorney: You can't talk to me like that.

Leonard: Dr. Lewis?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Ennis?
Leonard: Huh. I thought that was you.
Dr. Tara Lewis: What are you doing here?
Leonard: You should know. They sent me here right after you finished interviewing me. I don't appreciate my words being used against me, Tara.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Ennis, I had nothing to do with...
Leonard: Then why was I transferred? It must have been that they read what you wrote in the report about me and assumed that I was like... them.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Who's "them", Ennis?
Leonard: The worst of the worst. Don't you know where you are?
Dr. Tara Lewis: [looking around at the other prisoners] This is the serial killer wing.

David: We believe our unsub is already with his next victim. If he matches pattern, she'll be a successful woman, probably brunette, early 30s to mid-40s. She'll be at home in Nashville's upper echelon.
Dr. Spencer Reid: This means that he fits in. He drives the right car, he wears the right clothes, he's highly intelligent, and probably comes from a place of status.
Derek: This guy's sociable, and he's endearing. You would never suspect that this man is capable of murder. But he will do whatever it takes to protect the fantasy that he's trying to relive.
David: It's this fantasy which fuels his drive. He's recreating a romantic evening, repeating it with each of his victims.
Derek: He most likely recently had a relationship taken away from him. So look at men who have lost loved ones or gone through a messy divorce.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Like Bundy, these women are representations of that first loss. Uh... Bundy picked victims who had similar features to the woman that abandoned him, and we believe that our unsub is doing the exact same thing.
Emily: These women were confident, successful, and strong, and they fought back. Which means he has the ability to overpower them fairly easily.
David: He believes, or fantasizes, he's in a relationship with these women. No matter how fleeting the initial interaction is, it's everything to him, an invitation.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Our technical analyst has compiled a list of locations that the victims visited prior to their death. These are high-class establishments. We're going to want to visit the same places.
Derek: So look for men who fit the profile, but also women who match victimology. If somebody's been paying a little too much attention to them, talk to them. Get a read, then jot their name down so that we can check them out.
Det. Landon Kaminski: All right, folks, pick up your canvassing assignments and get to work.

Detective: [Arriving at the crime scene] Well?
Detective: [Split second after seeing the victim] We need to call the FBI! It started again

Dr. Spencer Reid: Who we are is... it's constantly evolving. I'm a lot older than you, and I'm changing all the time. You know, this job changes me. You've changed me. You sought me out to try to understand how *not* to harm people. It's a far more important part of who you are than the one that scares you.

David: There are some very committed people in those parts
Aaron: Who love their fire power
David: Almost as much as they hate us

Emily: [watching Rossi on TV] Oh, good. We didn't miss it.
Penelope: Nope, it just started.
Luke: [entering with Matt and JJ] We're up to our eyeballs in cases. The guy never takes a vacation. I want to know when he'd find the time to write another book.
Jennifer: Someone must have put his mandatory six weeks off to good use.
Matt: Anybody heard from Tara?
Emily: Oh, she's finishing up with Floyd Ferell. She'll be back in D.C. soon.
Penelope: I'm DVRing this for her and Reid. They didn't want to miss it, either.

Dr. Tara Lewis: How you're liking that jet, Will?
William LaMontagne Jr.: Well, you know, I've heard a lot about it. Never thought I'd get a ride on it

Dr. Spencer Reid: They want me to plead guilty?
Fiona: To involuntary manslaughter. And the offer is two to five years
Emily: I'll leave you two to discuss this.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Wait, don't go. I want her to stay. She can hear anything you have to say to me. Two to five years.
Emily: That's a lot of time.
Fiona: I understand. But it's all about perspective. It's a lot more than nothing, but a lot less than twenty-five to life, which is what you'd be facing if convicted.
Dr. Spencer Reid: You think I should take it?
Fiona: I think, given what's at stake, you owe it to yourself to carefully consider it.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I don't think I can lie and say that I did this. Is that foolish?
Emily: No. No, of course not. I don't want to see you plead guilty to a crime you didn't commit.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Or maybe I should cut my losses.
Emily: Well, the offer is so low. Is that a good sign? Does it mean that the government thinks they've got a weak case?
Fiona: Possibly.
Emily: So that's good.
Fiona: Well, not necessarily. It could also mean they're trying to clear the case quickly with minimal publicity. And I honestly don't know what it means. And I'm not in the business of second guessing good offers. Which this is. But I'm also not the one who'll be doing the time.
Dr. Spencer Reid: What would you do in my shoes?
Fiona: I'm not in your shoes. It's a decision only you can make.
Emily: Whatever you decide, I'm always in your corner. We all are.
Fiona: Spencer, if you want to fight this to the end, I promise you I will bring everything in my arsenal to the battle. But what I can't promise you is a better outcome than the one they're offering you today.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I want to fight.

Bruce: I said open the door!
[gazes at himself in the mirror]
Bruce: Oh, my God. What a pathetic little crybaby. I was always right about you, huh? So you got old Bruce-y in a cage, huh? You think that's gonna help? It's only gonna make him hide longer. What do you want to know? I'm gonna have to tell you 'cause the baby's got his pacifier.
Aaron: Where's Sera?
Bruce: Ah, she's learning a lesson.
Aaron: What did you do to them?
Bruce: "What did you do to them?" I scared 'em, that's all. They needed it.
Aaron: Why?
Bruce: Because they're spoiled, ungrateful little bitches who walk all over him any chance they get.
Aaron: What happened to Bruce?
Bruce: He's hiding, of course. See, when he can't handle it, I save his ass. Bruce's problem is... he can't handle anything.

David: Why were you calling Clyde Easter so much, Jack?
Jack: Anybody got a smoke? How about you, beanpole?
David: What do you think?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Narcissism masking deep-seated insecurity.
David: So if we puncture his self-image, this hood rat will talk.
Jack: Hey, hey, hey, I ain't no hood rat. You take that back.
David: Well, you look like one. You smell like one. You smell that?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Hood rat.
Jack: I am not! Take it back!
David: Hey, Jack. Do you know what a hood rat is? You see what I mean? He's just gonna have to learn the hard way.
Jack: All right, look, Clyde was gonna pay my medical bills, all right? This ear, it ain't growing back.
Dr. Spencer Reid: What happened to it?
Jack: This bitch teammate of his shot it. Said it was a warning. Thought she could take on this IRA big shot named Doyle. So I told these... What the hell, man? Jeez!
David: Where's Prentiss?
Jack: Who? I don't know!
David: Lauren Reynolds.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Where's Lauren Reynolds?
Jack: Friend of yours, is she?
David: You tell us where she is right now, or I swear, I'll send you to a prison where they'll teach you what a hood rat is.
Jack: And by the time you do, she'll be in pieces. So... my price just went up.

Matt: So, with that last crime scene and plus a list of addresses for our victims and potential victims...
Penelope: We finally have enough data to calculate the probable comfort zone of David's horrible home away from home.
Jennifer: Looks like somewhere in Briar Point, Maryland. Probably someplace tied to the Rhodes family.
Penelope: Say, something like the old defunct Friedman Medical Depot that's owned by Dr. Rhodes' uncle?
Emily: JJ, let's go.

Dr. Spencer Reid: [opening quote] "Fear is pain arising from the anticipation of evil." - Aristotle

Aaron: [Garcia has bought the team new computer tablets] Garcia, not that I don't appreciate your efforts, but where exactly did the funding for these come from?
Penelope: I did a thing.
Aaron: A thing?
Penelope: Best not talk about the thing.

Aaron: Dostoevsky once said, "Nothing is easier than denouncing the evil doer. Nothing more difficult than understanding it."

Matt: [watching Ferell's house] I'm sorry, but I gotta ask. Did you guys eat the tainted chili?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I have issues with group food.

Elle: [to Garcia] Can you get into those records?
Dr. Spencer Reid: [Garcia is typing] Despite the fact they're probably expunged, she can find the faintest echo of deletion and successfully recreate the file, thereby sending us all to prison for computer felony fraud counts
Elle: [Garcia is looking worried up to her] We can make bail, Garcia!
Penelope: Already in

Cheryl: [after Elle takes the alcohol] Can't you let it slide this once?
Elle: We're gonna need you at your best

Derek: You know, you're partially to blame for me leaving. You got such a big heart, I think it rubbed off on me.
Penelope: Partially. I think the actual reason is that little baby boy.
Derek: Yeah.
Penelope: I'm really glad it wasn't a baby girl.
[Morgan laughs]
Penelope: I'm really glad. Is that wrong?
Derek: No. No. You will always be my original Baby Girl.

Penelope: [Picks up the phone] Green for go

Jennifer: [JJ and Reid are on the phone with Garcia. Reid is working at a glass evidence board. JJ sists in a chair] Penelope?
Penelope: Are we in yet?
Jennifer: All yours.
Penelope: [sighs] I always feel skeevy going through someone's life like this.
Jennifer: Okay, so everything looks like it's password protected so you might not even be able to... you're in already, aren't you?
Penelope: Password was "Cullen."
Jennifer: Of course.
Dr. Spencer Reid: [looks over] "*Colon?*"
Jennifer: *Cullen.* The vampire family from Twilight.
Dr. Spencer Reid: What's Twilight?
Jennifer: Do you ever read anything other than technical books.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Mm. Not much in English.
[looks back to his work]
Penelope: Okay I'll see what I can dredge. My love is strong.
Jennifer: Okay. Thanks.
[hangs up]
Jennifer: How's the profile coming?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I don't know. I never really feel ready, you know?
Jennifer: You'll be fine. I'm gonna go to talk to Tara's BFF before the media requests come in and it gets too crazy.
Dr. Spencer Reid: What's a BFF?
Jennifer: [sighs] Best friend forever.

Dr. Spencer Reid: Hotch? Do you think it would be possible to wait till tomorrow to return home?
Aaron: [Shakes yes; then to Derek] You think you could find something to do in Vegas for the night?

Dr. Spencer Reid: You know, this phrase doesn't seem to have a particular source or author. It's found pretty much every self-help book, I read 22 of them today, all touting the same, basic three-part plan.
David: Let me guess, phase one is positive thinking, visualizing goals.
Emily: That's to work up the courage to get to phase two, taking real steps to achieve said goal.
David: Gail committed to school, got grades like never before.
Emily: Molly gave up her obsessive food journal and started eating better.
Dr. Spencer Reid: It's hard to believe motivational sayings alone would allow her to make these type of strides.
Emily: Maybe that's why the UnSub moved in with them. She could offer support and encouragement day and night.
David: She'd be around to watch Molly's diet or Gail's study habits.
Emily: At first her methods worked. She gets to be the hero, the savior.
Dr. Spencer Reid: She's a pure narcissist, so helping her victims is only about gaining their appreciation and dependence.
David: The more her victims gain confidence, the less they need a full-time cheerleader.
Dr. Spencer Reid: And that's when her motivational plan goes completely off the rails. Phase three is normally about maintaining the tenets of the program independently.
David: But her program doesn't end. She holds them captive, destroys them physically.
Emily: She's the motivational speaker from hell.

Jennifer: [opening qutoation] "What is past is prologue." - William Shakespeare.

Jason: Euripedes said, "When love is in excess it brings a man no honor, nor any worthiness."

Josh: We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills, we shall never surrender. We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be.

Penelope: Hi I'm Penelope Garcia and I don't like change.

Chrissy: He killed my family. It's all my fault.
David: Chrissy, put it down. your little brother is alive, and your grandmother is so worried.
Chrissy: I did this. I said I needed space, and he killed my family. It's all my fault.
David: [she puts the gun to her head] Chrissy! Listen to me. Listen. Okay? Focus on my voice. None of this is your fault, okay? You hear me? Right now, you can make a choice.
Chrissy: No.
David: You have to choose to fight. You have to want to survive. Listen, I can't promise it's gonna be okay, but it's been almost a year since my wife, Krystall, died, and it still hurts like hell.
[she lowers the gun]
David: I-It's the little things they don't tell you. The quiet in the house. I can't stand it. But in that quiet, I'm reminded of her. Now, after she was gone, I stopped seeing everything good in the world, but then I realized when Krystall died, I died a little bit, too. But that's not how we honor those we love. That's not what your parents would want. They'd want you to live.

Emily: Go ahead, Garcia.
Penelope: So, I was doing my due dilligence, as I do, on Mr. Dennis Kirkwood, and I have found a bewildering connection between him and the first two victims. If I can direct your attention to the big screen. Three years ago in Baltimore, Mr. Kirkwood was considered a person of interest in the death of Robin Rhodes, who was fished out of the Patapsco River. She was 22 years old and worked as an intern at Kirkwood's company, Turnblade Capital, for a year.
David: Were there rumors of an affair?
Penelope: Oh, you betcha, although at the time, Kirkwood was engaged to his current wife. I mean, current widow.
David: Okay, so how do Tate and Nakamura get connected to all this?
Penelope: Well, uh, Kirkwood's alibi the night that Robin Rhodes went missing was that he was at his bachelor party. And although I don't have the entire guest list, I can tell you that two people at that party where Shaun Tate and Anthony Nakamura.
Jennifer: And so Kirkwood was never charged?
Penelope: Not only was he never charged, but after a two-year-long investigation, Baltimore PD determined that Robin Rhodes' death was - wait for it - just accidental. They say that she went for a jog, slipped off a steep embankment, and hit her head on a rock.
Emily: Garcia, we're gonna need you to get a complete list of all the men who were at Kirkwood's bachelor party.
Jennifer: And I will get that for you. Copy.
Jennifer: [Garcia hangs up] Well, if we're looking for a personal trauma to inspire revenge killings, I think we just found it.
Emily: And I think we have what we need right now to deliver the profile.

Emily: [dumps her bag on the desk, whose sound makes Reid jump] I'm sorry.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I thought you were in there.
Emily: Are you okay?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Yeah, I'm... I'm... I'm sure these victims overlap somehow. Garcia pulled their phone numbers, but so far I can't find anything.
Emily: You just jumped.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I've been having these really intense headaches lately.
Emily: Have you seen a doctor?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Yeah, a few. None of them have been able to figure it out.
Emily: Oh, I'm sorry. Does anyone know?
Dr. Spencer Reid: You.
Emily: I won't tell anyone.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I know. They'd just worry. Not that you're not gonna worry, but they'll just make me feel like a baby. You know?
Emily: I do.
Dr. Spencer Reid: How are you?
Emily: I'm good.
Dr. Spencer Reid: You've been picking your fingernails again.
Emily: Yeah.
Dr. Spencer Reid: You only do that when you're stressed.
Emily: It's just a bad habit.

David: [in 1992, Rossi is at the morgue] He held her but he didn't feed her, so she's weak. It's his sadistic way to subdue her.
Dr. Castro: Several defensive wounds on her hands and forearms. She put up a hell of a fight.
David: Atta girl.

Aaron: [voiceover] "... pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding." ~~ Kahlil Gibran

David: Did I ever tell you about my Uncle Sal? He liked to fix up old cars. When my Aunt Rosie died, he bought a 1947 Buick. Well, it was a piece of junk, really, but he was obsessed with it. He'd work on it day and night, forgetting to eat, until it was a thing of beauty. Then one day, it got stolen. When the cops found it, it had been completely vandalized. Uncle Sal was devastated. Never recovered. He died about a year later.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I'm sorry about your uncle.
David: I'm sorry about Maeve. So, how long has it been now? Four months?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Three months and 15 days.
David: That's why you're not sleeping. This can't go on.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I realize that the socially acceptable amount of time to wallow in grief is coming to an end, and...
David: That's not what I mean. You wallow as long as you need, but talk to someone.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I feel like there are two types of people in this world, Rossi. The ones that get over their grief and move on, and the ones that descend into some sort of endless misery.
David: I know how you feel. Give it time.
Dr. Spencer Reid: How much time? I thought by coming to work every day and helping other people, the pain would lessen, but it hasn't.
David: Compartmentalization works only so long. Don't be like Uncle Sal.
Dr. Spencer Reid: You know that I remember every single word we ever said to each other?
David: Finally, the downside to an eidetic memory. Listen, Spencer. If you want to feel better, you can't control the process. You have to let yourself grieve.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I'm not sleeping because when I do, I dream of Maeve. And when I see her, I feel the sweetest relief imaginable. She always asks me to dance, but I can't because I don't know how to dance, and because I never even got to touch her when she was alive. I know if I give into that fantasy, I'll be lost forever, so I force myself to wake up. Is that part of normal healing?

Emily: [about her motorcycle] Yeah, it's sexy, yet statically stupid
Jennifer: Wait, isn't that how you got here?
Emily: No, no hunting serial killers is thrill enough

Cowboy: A wise man would avoid the Badlands today. Storm's rolling in.

John: [teaching a school class, BAU just entered in the back] Samuel
Samuel: Yes?
John: Tell the man from the FBI who the Ga'he are
Dr. Spencer Reid: The Ga'he are mighty spirits, who dwell at desert caves
Aaron: Reid? Is your name Samuel?
[class giggles]
Dr. Spencer Reid: Sorry

[last lines]
Section: You always here this late?
Jennifer: Pretty much, yeah. Every time your name was mentioned today and every time I didn't say, "Hey, yeah, I know him," I'm lying.
Section: I know it's not easy. I don't like it either.
Jennifer: We're surrounded by profilers, Matt. One side glance and they're gonna figure it all out.
Section: Separating us in the field was smart.
Jennifer: It was the only way. Look, I... I know why we can't tell them. I get that, but... We can't have too many of these conversations either.
Section: That case could stay open for a couple years.
Jennifer: It's already been almost three.
[pause]
Jennifer: Did you take this position because of me?
Section: No, no. Trust me, I walked into the Hoover Building this morning and was told drive out to Quantico immediately. So, someone put this transfer on the fast track.
Jennifer: State?
Section: They wouldn't admit it if they did.
Jennifer: True.
Section: This... us... We're good, right?
Jennifer: Yeah.
Section: Okay. You want to meet at the Air and Space in the morning? Run some sprints?
Jennifer: I'm going to make breakfast for my boys.
Section: Great plan.
David: [walks to them and pushes the elevator button] Going home?
Jennifer: Yeah.
David: Cruz?
Section: I've got some work to do. Good night.
Jennifer: Good night.
David: Good night.
[getting in the elevator after JJ]
David: You good?
Jennifer: Yeah. All good.

Jennifer: Don't think of him as a spree killer, think of him as a fire starter. That's why no one sees him flee the scene.
Luke: Could be a first responder. But police, paramedics, witnesses, they'd have to give a statement.
Jennifer: Yeah, if he was on more than one police report, he'd be on our radar.
Luke: Well, maybe he sticks around to watch and just doesn't draw attention to himself.
Jennifer: This guy hides in plain sight.

Penelope: [Rossi contacts here from the plane using his tablet] Here I am, the paragon of professionalism

Jennifer: How are you?
Emily: I feel like I got hit by a truck.

Deputy: I heard there's a missing girl. The media will be all over this. You need all BAU agents on it?
Emily: I would love to, but Agent Lewis uncovered a mass grave. She'll be staying in Washington State.
Deputy: Heard that could be a drug cartel. It's also a cold case versus an active killer who abducted a missing girl.
Emily: I agree a missing girl is time-sensitive, but what Lewis found is huge. BAU needs jurisdiction.
Deputy: Help me help you. Find the girl alive, then we'll see.

Derek: [voiceover] Three can keep a secret, if two are dead. -Benjamin Franklin

Dr. Spencer Reid: You've plans tonight?
Jennifer: Eh, does sleep count as a plan?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I am going to a Korean film festival in Georgetown. You can come with me if you want. A lot of the entries probably aren't subtitled yet, but I can do a simultaneous whisper translation while we watch.
Jennifer: Sounds fun, but I am really tired.
[Reid: That's fine, no problem]

Dr. Tara Lewis: Melissa thinks that Sandy Hook was staged. I was there that day, and I counseled those parents, and I saw... I saw those kids. So the day that I lose to someone like her... that's the day that I quit.
Emily: It's biased thinking, and if we allow it color our profile and the arrest falls apart, we'll be a stain on the Bureau.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Okay, so, what, we just... we just back off on Melissa?
Emily: No. We back up our profile. You have a theory, Tara. Now prove your results.

Jennifer: Have we found a connection between the victims yet, Garcia?
Penelope: None. All of them were long-time area residents, and they all had backyard pools, but that's about it.
Matt: It's possible these killings are random.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Except the items taken were so specific. I mean, the unsub must have had some familiarity with the people he targeted.
Penelope: Oh, and it turns out that Bert Schofield was, in fact, burglarized. His bowling trophies were missing from his garage.
Luke: [incredulous] Bowling trophies? Seriously?
Penelope: I just report the facts as I find them, sir.

Aaron: You've not seen what I've seen.
Erin: You chose the BAU.
Aaron: True. I enjoy my work, even when in the pursuit to understand why a person feels the compelling need to brutally torture, murder, and dismember a child. Mother, father, entire family. The unsubs devoid of any morality, humanity, remorse, when caught often come to believe we're the only ones who understand them. And they're right, we do. Otherwise, how could we catch them?

Penelope: See, just in this forum there are 558,000 members, so we are looking for the specific ones that we need is like finding a straw-colored needle in a haystack

Sean: So, how did you know I took the wine?
Aaron: I know what you sound like when you tell a lie. You said something to Thane about the wine, and I could hear you... calming yourself down.
Sean: My brother the profiler.
Aaron: It has more to do with being your brother than being a profiler.

Penelope: Both attacks happen during fool moon, just saying
David: Coincidence of lunar effect?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Oh, come on! No one really believes the full moon triggers strange and erratic behavior in people
Penelope: Eh, yeah, they... I... I do it, I believe that!

Dr. Spencer Reid: [opening quote] "Ghost were created when the first man woke in the night." - J.M. Barrie.

Penelope: Bill, I... I know the pain you feel. I get you. I know. I-I heard you talk about it in group.
Bill: Why doesn't Monica understand that?
Penelope: Bill, I just think she needs more time to understand it.
Monica: What?
Penelope: Listen, Bill. I know all you've ever wanted was just somebody to love. You were trapped inside a cocoon just waiting for somebody to set you free.
Bill: Hope made me feel. For the first time in my life, I felt love.
Monica: She was my baby!
Penelope: You-you brought Monica here because you're heartbroken, and you're desperate to recreate what you lost with Hope.
Monica: I LOST MY CHILD!
Penelope: Bill, you need to tell her. You can do this, okay? You need to let her know why this is all happening. You need to tell her. You can do this.
Monica: Say something. Say something!
Bill: Our baby...
Monica: Oh-ho-ho, my-y God. Oh, my God, my baby.
Bill: Hope was pregnant.
Derek: [entering] Bill, drop the gun.
Penelope: Do what he says.
Derek: Drop it. Now.
Penelope: It's okay, Bill.
Dr. Spencer Reid: [entering] Nice and easy.
Derek: [Bill drops the gun] Now put your hands where I can see them.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Slowly step away from Monica.
Derek: Easy...
[Monica takes the gun]
Penelope: Monica!
[Monica shoots Bill]

Penelope: Now we're talking! Wow...
Dr. Spencer Reid: What'd you find?
Penelope: A ghost file in a ghost folder on a ghost server that nobody wants me to know about!

Derek: You ready to do some work?
Garcia: Why not? I haven't slept this week,I might as well give up eating too.
Derek: Awwh,poor baby. Try not to let the tears hit the paper, it gets a little messy.

Emily: The answer's no.
Dr. Tara Lewis: I think we should consider it.
Emily: No. She will control the audio. She can twist your words, edit them to make the Bureau look bad.
Dr. Tara Lewis: We already look bad. The brass is gonna want to know how and why Doug killed himself in front of us.
Emily: Yeah, and that's my ass, but I'm not making this situation worse than it already is.

Aaron: [opening quote] "The enemy is within the gates. It is with our own luxury, our own folly, our own criminality that we have to contend"- Marcus Tullius Cicero

Penelope: This boy was found two hours ago in the middle of nowhere. Technically, he was found outside of Crawford, Arizona; my point is he has clearly been to super hell and escaped some sort of captivity.
Derek: Well, how do we know he wasn't just dropped off there?
Penelope: Well, he has fresh cuts on the bottom of his feet from the local cactus fields, and that's way from any through roads, and his skin is rubbed raw around his ankles from chains.
Derek: He must have had a chance to escape and he took it.
Emily: Or the unsub could have had him in transit.
Penelope: My god, you guys, look at his eyes.
Jennifer: Yeah, he's jaundice. Probably hasn't seen daylight in a while.
Derek: Yeah, and there's a lot of scars here.
David: Those are the ones we can see.

Jennifer: [Presses the intercom] Penelope?
Penelope: [Comes walking it] At your service
Jennifer: Oh? Hey!

Jennifer: I will never understand this whole teacher lover thing. I can barely deal with a grown man.
David: What's interesting is, if it would have been a male teacher and a female student, he'd have gotten 20 years and none of this would have happened.
Jennifer: Well, she could get life plus 20 for all those murders she committed.
Dr. Spencer Reid: You know, it's funny. If she wasn't so pretty, she probably would never have been released in the first place.
Penelope: What?
Dr. Spencer Reid: It's true. Unattractive female predators serve a longer prison sentence than their attractive counterparts.
Penelope: Wow. That's ridiculous.
Dr. Spencer Reid: It's primal. There's a hierarchy to everything, including sex offenders.

Dr. Spencer Reid: We can't get a warrant, so we have to go this under the radar on this one, Garcia.
Penelope: You want to hack your father's network? You're sure about this?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I really wish people would stop asking me that.

Penelope: [voiceover] Nature, in her most dazzling aspects or stupendous parts, is but the background and theater of the tragedy of man. -John Morley

Jennifer: Two victims in three hours? That's a spree.

Jonny: You're not gonna wanna miss this.

Dr. Spencer Reid: He'd be a psychrophile then, someone with a sexual fetish for the cold
Kate: So let me get this straight: we're saying that there is a serial killer inside the cult?
David: Talk about a needle in a needle stack!

Ronald: How does it feel?
Harold: Why are you doing this?
Ronald: I just wish they were all here to see it.
Harold: Please...
Ronald: Maybe we should shake hands and forget about it. That's what you used to say, right?
Harold: What are you talking about?
Ronald: Riley!

Derek: Listen to me. Carl Buford. That's the name of the man who hurt me. I was just a young boy like you, Angel. And I thought about doing that very same thing to myself. I did. Because the shame was too much. But instead, I kept the pain buried inside of me. And it tore me apart. But, Angel, I never let that son of a bitch beat me. I never gave him that. I want to make this man pay for what he's done to you. But I need your help. I promise you that whoever hurt you will not win. You and me together can take away what he kept from you and what he values the most, and that's freedom. Angel, please. Will you help me do that?
Angel: Yes.

Derek: Hey baby girl, I need you to look into something for me
Penelope: Tell me it's your melted chocolate eyes, because I'm so there
Derek: Likewise, but first things first, silly girl

Elle: [turning in her badge and gun] This is not an admission of guilt.

Dr. Spencer Reid: Hey, Hotch.
Aaron: Yeah?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I've been thinking... The vast majority of unsubs with this type of m.o. aren't driven by the killing, they're merely fascinated by the body parts. Psychologically, they exist in a realm where fantasy meets delusion. It's basically the perfect blueprint for creation of a serial killer b... I'm rambling, aren't I?
Aaron: Yes.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I should probably get to the point.

Penelope: [has a lot to find] That's gonna take a hot second, but I'm gonna get it

Penelope: [Replying to Reid] Check, check, and checkers. Back in a smidge.

Dr. Spencer Reid: [phoning] Hello.
Dr. Maeve Donovan: What's wrong?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Nothing.
Dr. Maeve Donovan: Well, it's not Sunday. We talk on Sunday.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I know. I, ah, just thought I'd call.
Dr. Maeve Donovan: Ah, you scared me.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Sorry.
Dr. Maeve Donovan: I thought it was an emergency.
Dr. Spencer Reid: No, it's not an emergency.
Dr. Maeve Donovan: Yeah? Are you sure? How are your headaches?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Good. I mean, I mean they're gone.
Dr. Maeve Donovan: Yeah? Are you taking your riboflavin and the magnesium?
Dr. Spencer Reid: In equal doses, and a sporadic shot of B2 like you said.
Dr. Maeve Donovan: And sleep? Are you letting your gray matter rest?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I'm working on it.
Dr. Maeve Donovan: What's so funny?
Dr. Spencer Reid: What? I didn't laugh.
Dr. Maeve Donovan: Something's amusing you. I can hear it.
Dr. Spencer Reid: You can hear my body language?
Dr. Maeve Donovan: I'm a very good listener.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I guess I just... I think it's funny how we've been doing this for six months and we've never met. You know, like one Google search of me and you'll find my FBI file photo, but I have absolutely no idea what you look like. I've shaved, by the way, since then. I used to be sort of fascinated with the yeti and I thought that maybe if I...
Dr. Maeve Donovan: I don't know what you look like either.
Dr. Spencer Reid: [pause] Really?
Dr. Maeve Donovan: No. The only intimate part of you I've seen is your brain when I studied the MRI you sent me. That's when I said, "This is a guy I need to get to know."
Dr. Spencer Reid: Thanks. That's really nice of you to say.

Alex: [open quote] Author Jennifer Smith wrote: "Marriage is a mosaic you build with your spouse, millions of tiny moments that creates your love story"

Jennifer: What about property records?
Det. John Barton: Eh, I talked to the owner, eh, she said, she rented it a couple of weeks ago to a quite, normal looking guy named Bob. He said he wanted to store some equipment. And paid in cash
David: They're always normal

Aaron: Where were you between the hours of 10 and midnight last night?
Charles: At home, with Trixie... my Chihuahua
Aaron: Can anyone corroborate your story?
Charles: Trixie can

Chief: Five of the ten victims have been identified. These three, Jason Chambers, Lindsay Montoya, and Gary Keulchy, were homeless. And these two, Sonequa Fox and Daniel Rikers, were working professionals.
Jennifer: And Mr. Rikers and Ms. Fox were both reported missing a week and a half ago.
Chief: That's correct. They both left their homes in mid-city and never returned.
Matt: And the three homeless victims were last seen in a shelter near the French Quarter?
Chief: Yes. We periodically check the night roll calls when we find a body. They were most likely panhandling in the area.
David: Our unsub crossed racial and gender lines.
Luke: And he's mobile.
Dr. Spencer Reid: You know, realistically, it's likely each victim was abducted, killed, and disposed of individually.
Jennifer: We need to see what the M.E. can tell us about the timeline of the murders.
Dr. Tara Lewis: And we'd expect an unsub like this to start with high-risk victims like the homeless and then move on to low-risk victims like Sonequa and Daniel, but until we ID the remaining victims, it's really hard to draw any conclusions.
Luke: So he'd need somewhere to hold them and do his bloodletting business before bringing them back to the crypt.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I've already started a geo-profile, but the more we can learn about the victims' last moments, the more accurate it'll be.

David: I just saw your prince down the hall. He's sleeping like it's his job.
Derek: [laughs] 'Cause it is.
David: Whew. Pretty incredible, huh?
Derek: I'm so grateful.
David: You know, I've learned that, in the short time I've had the privilege of being a dad... it heals wounds, just being there for your kid.

Lila: I like you.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I like you, too. It's just I'm a... I'm a federal agent, you know? I'm supposed to protect you.
Lila: Then keep me close.

Emily: I've read your case file. I've read about how your father was killed when you were thirteen, and earlier, you said something about crossing a line when it came to stalking a child. I realized Hotch's son Jack, he's thirteen now, too.
Peter: I'm not a pedophile. I'm insulted by your inference.
Emily: No. Your interest in Jack is clinical. You want to see what it will be like if he grows up without his father like you did. That's what I've been focusing on. After you kill Hotch, you'll never leave Jack alone. Am I right?
Peter: You are.
Emily: Then let me tell you something, Peter. I've died before protecting a child. That was a child I barely knew. But Jack? I love Jack. I've watched Jack grow up. I will not betray him or his father, so it doesn't matter what you do to me. I will not break.
Peter: Let me test that resolve.
[picking up a scalpel, he advances on her eye, but she remains unflinching]
Peter: [lowering the scalpel] You make an interesting point. I need a plan "B".

Derek: You're okay?
Penelope: I am okay? Eh, let me see: I have got images of a girl being tortured burned inside my brain over this strain over this once carefree choice of music. I isolated 4 sources from one track and each one is more distorted that the next. So no, I am not okay, that is going to take a while!
Derek: Penelope, you know I appreciate your doings
Penelope: Thank you sugar, but right now even that doesn't feel good

Detective: We identified the body from the warehouse. Yvonne Westfield. She went missing six weeks ago on a weekday when Ferell was still locked up.
Emily: So there's deinitely another killer out there.
Luke: I find it hard to believe that there's a master manipulator killer pulling Ferell's strings.
Matt: But everything seems to be pointing that way.
Emily: Okay, let's get Yvonne's next of kin in here, find out everything we can about her.

Dr. Spencer Reid: What's going on with Penelope?
Derek: Reid, I'll talk to you more about that when we're alone, alright?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Okay, but she's isn't sick, isn't she?
Derek: That really depends on your definition of sick.

Agent: Well, here's what we know: these low level guys often do freelance work to pad their income. You need someone for an unsavory job, this is who you call
David: 1-800-thug
Agent: Yeah, pretty much

Jason: I know all about you, Tim. You're at the gym five times a week. You drive a flashy car, you stink of cologne, and you can't get it up. Not even Viagra's working for you. You know what that tells me? That tells me you are hopelessly compensating, and it's not just in your head. It is physical. What did the girls call you in high school? What'd they come up with when you fumbled your way into some girl's pants and she started laughing when she got a good look at just how little you had to offer?
Tim: Shut up!
Jason: Short Stack? Very Little Vogel? I got it: Tiny Tim.

Penelope: [Presenting at the team briefing] ... but he's not the first victim. The first victim...
[pressing a button on the remote, nothing happens]
Penelope: Oh, squeeze it! It gets stuck... sometimes. Do you want me to take over?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I got it
[presses hard, pictures get distorted]
Dr. Spencer Reid: Yeah, maybe you're better
Penelope: [Takes over the remote from Reid] I have to memorize it, so I don't have to look at the gross!

Aaron: And where is he?
Penelope: Probably on his way to hell in a hand basket, sir

Aaron: He's angry and frustrated. I'm surprised everybody isn't.
David: Ah, some of us had an inkling.
[Hotch looks at Rossi in surprise]
David: What? I'm good at what I do.

Emily: There are no words.
Monica: No. There are not.
Emily: Monica, I asked Stephen to join the BAU. I asked him to hunt Scratch. I got him killed, and...
Monica: Peter Lewis killed my husband. And I choose to believe Stephen can rest knowing he helped this team catch him.
Emily: Thank you. If there's anything the Bureau can do for you or your family, please...
Monica: I will. Right now, my kids need me. And your team needs you.

Aaron: The torture of a bad conscience is the hell of a living soul. - John Calvin

David: I have to take a leak.
Elias: Too bad.
David: You're gonna let me piss my pants?
Elias: Should've worn your Depends before you came into my house.
David: Will you cut the old man shit? It's condescending.
Elias: Good.'Cause I got to tell you, when Sydney told me that you were in the house, I was expecting David Rossi, the legend. But what I got was David Rossi, the AARP member. I was hoping for a challenge. Barely even raised my pulse.

Dr. Spencer Reid: [entering the Philly field office with Rossi] How do you get used to the staring? I feel like I perpetually have something stuck in my teeth.
David: You learn to ignore it.

Penelope: If we're talking about vacations, guess where I'm going.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Hmm. To visit Emily?
Penelope: Yes. How did you know that?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Because nothing else would make you this excited.

Emily: [closing quote] "Nothing is more sad that the death of an illusion" - Arthur Koestler

Jason: You ever feel like there's something obvious right in front of you, you just can't see it?
Derek: Yeah, usually right before a woman dumps me.

Aaron: [closing quote, voiceover] Gandhi said "Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever."

Alex: I know that look. The wheels are turning.
David: I've seen this before. Muzzle flash burns. We'd occasionally see this on POWs in Vietnam.
Alex: So someone held a gun to his head and repeatedly fired blanks.
Dr. Spencer Reid: It's incredibly risky, especially considering the margin of error when holding the barrel of a gun to someone's temporal bone. The discharge alone can cause a skull to shatter.
David: Which means not only did this person want to put the fear of god into Gavin, but he knew exactly how to do it without killing him.
Alex: This poor kid was tortured.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Or trained. What if whoever did this wanted to make sure if he got caught, he'd never talk?

David: You're okay?
Agent: Yeah, I just need to build a thicker skin
David: You don't need to anything you don't want to! You understand?

Penelope: Oh, my gosh, I was so worried about you guys being in that bunker. It made me very claustrophobic. We need to look for an even bigger apartment for me. Even bigger.
Jennifer: Mm, sure. We can look tomorrow.

David: We didn't catch you by mistake, did we, Austin?
Austin: Excuse me?
David: You said the unsub liked your website, how it was designed. But it was your work. What you can repair, what you can restore for him. You gave him a place to hide the bodies.
Austin: That's not true. Talk to my wife. I'm home by 6:00 every night...
David: That's the first thing voyeurs learn: how to cover their tracks. How to stalk between the hours of nine to five. That's why there was no porn on your computer. You had something better.
Austin: This is a crime! I would never do what you're describing. And even if you don't believe me, my wife knows. My kids, my grandkids. I hate computers. I don't even know how they work.
David: Well, then let me give you your first lesson. When something goes out on the Internet, it's out there forever. Now, you're going to jail; that's a foregone conclusion. But unless you cooperate with me, I will do everything I can to make sure that the next time your grandkids Google you, they will find out what kind of a monster grandpa really is.

Julie: Listen, we had another early check out, so could you turn it over before you clock out?
Adam: What? I am a cleaning lady now?
Julie: I'm your boss and you'll be whatever I want you to be

Stephen: So, what's Yates next move?
David: He'll find another victim

Aaron: [discussing Gregory's victims] Gregory used different forms of torture with each one. Choking, burning, suspension, and beating. Drowning was the only constant.
Dr. Spencer Reid: They were all classified as wet drownings, which means the victim was alive when they were submerged. They could feel their lungs filling up with water. It's an extremely painful way to die.

Assistant: Your daughter is in the Bay Area, huh? It's beautiful up there
David: [Reluctant] Yeah
Assistant: I hear you have a grandson who is five? My son just turned six. It seems like just yesterday when he was in my arms at the hospital and now Kenny doesn't want a hug when I drop him off at school
David: Hmm
Assistant: I look forward to the day I can sit my porch, enjoy the sunset, glass or red in my hand, with not a care in the world
David: Okay, stop!
Assistant: Stop what?
David: You're sniffing around to see if I am up for retirement
Assistant: Don't be so paranoid, agent Rossi, I am just making conversation. Besides I am not in the position to do that
David: That's right, because when it is time for me to retire, I'll let you know

Tory: Open your eyes.
Leanne: No.
Tory: Open them, or I'll open them for you.
Leanne: Oh, God. I think I'm gonna be sick.
Tory: What for? You're looking at Bronson Springs' finest. It takes a special kind of integrity to earn your way in there.
Leanne: Tory, please.
Tory: It turns out you were worse than any of them.

Aaron: Garcia, I need all the information you can find me on the Philadelphia boxing scene.
Penelope: Well, let's see. There's *Rocky I* through *V*. And let's not forget about the last one.
Derek: Penelope.

Dr. Spencer Reid: Your mother's by polar and almost certainly an undifferentiated schizophrenic your father suffered severe shell shock in the war now referred to as post traumatic stress disorder. As far as I can tell you remained clinically depressed the rest of his life. 53% of all serial killers have some sort of mental illness. In your case both your parent suffered from psychological disorders which they largely took out on you. Maybe you beat each other as much as they beat you so violence became a natural expression of love. There's something called the Hypotham region of the limback system. It's the most creative part of the brain. Once were ones without conscious and without judge. It's what makes babies cry when they're hungry, uh, scream when they want affection, become enraged when a toy is taken away from them. On most children a healthy relationship with their mothers counters the hypothalamus and maps the child's brain, a healthy. Your hypothalamus never learned control it still operates. Pre records indicate you display symptoms of sydariast you're, you're obsessed with sex. Sex and love are cross wired with pain. Additionally your hypothalamus won't allow you to stop seeking the desires that it wants, so you became a sexual sadist. Sexual partners will never be as similar to the painful desires that you had. Making sure they do exactly what you want them to do and you ensure that by killing them. Earlier you said your victims never had a chance, I think you know deep down it was really you who never had a chance
Chester: Is that true I never had a chance?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I dunno, maybe

Dr. Lawrence Becker: Her last project on cyclic adenosine monophosphate - revolutionary stuff. Quite frankly, she made connections before I could even see them.
David: We know the feeling.

Aaron: Upscale restaurant?
Detective: Well, let's just say that I don't go, unless it's on someone else's dime

Lee: What are you doing?
Colby: What's it look like?
Lee: I'm hungry. And my stories aren't on.
Colby: Ten minutes and I'll be in.
Lee: I want go hunt.
Colby: No, Dad. We're not hunting today.
Lee: Why not?
Colby: We need to lay low. I mean there's cops all over the neighborhood. We'll start up again next week, okay?
Lee: I don't want to wait. It's been three damn weeks since we've been hunting.
Colby: Dad, we hunted yesterday.
Lee: No, we didn't.
Colby: Yeah, we did. Look in there.
[shows the body]
Lee: I didn't do that.
Colby: Yeah, you did.
Lee: No, I didn't. You've been hunting without me.
Colby: Why would I hunt without you?
Lee: What's her name?
Colby: Shelly something. We got her at the pharmacy.
Lee: I didn't do that.
Colby: She was selling knives.
Lee: Why would I do that? I got knives.
Colby: She wouldn't say the words.
Lee: That's not my work. I don't do work like that.
Colby: Dad, it's okay if you don't remember.

Derek: Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, Where do you think you're going?
Penelope: I'm going with you.
Derek: No, that can't happen. It could be way too dangerous.
Penelope: Okay, um, either you let me go with you or you're going to have to forcibly remove me from the SUV. Your choice.

Penelope: [after witnessing the unsub commit a murder] He was still alive.
Derek: Baby, there's nothing else you could have done.
Penelope: I felt him leave. He was there one second, and then... just a body.
Derek: I'm really sorry that you had to see all of that.
Penelope: Derek, I didn't see... I was in it. I was sort of used to seeing horrible things from the safety of my screens every day, but this was... right there.
Derek: Why didn't you go and find someone before you ran out there?
Penelope: Because when I got shot, I remember thinking "The last thing I'm ever gonna see in this life is the man who killed me", and I couldn't let that happen to him. He had to see something good before he died.

Jennifer: [entering the nightly meeting] I'd say: good morning, but it's still dark outside

Derek: [voiceover] Ralph Ellison said: I am invisible, understand, simply because people refuse to see me.

Dr. Spencer Reid: Ferell's been out on weekend home visits, so it is possible he's killing again.
Emily: I can't believe they'd be that reckless. How did this happen?
David: Well, it happened with Hinkley and Vince Li, the cannibal who killed and beheaded a guy on a bus.
Matt: And what's worse, 'cause this is a mental health issue, not a criminal case, they had no duty to tell us or the public.
Detective: [entering] Sorry to interrupt, but Ferell's lawyer, Billie Williams, is here. You're gonna want to hear what she has to say.

Derek: For someone on a spree, this unsub sure is patient.
Dr. Spencer Reid: If he's so patient, what is it that he's waiting for?

Emily: I think it's safe to assume our unsub is male
Aaron: I agree with you, given what we know about aggressive driving and road rage
Emily: And the fact that men have an unnatural bond with their cars
Jennifer: That is true!
Derek: Wait a minute, I don't know about unnatural
Jennifer: I once dated a guy who washed his car more than he washed his hair
David: A nice car needs love
Jennifer: And a woman doesn't?
David: Uh, I'm not qualified to answer that

Aaron: Am I right? You're doing all right?
Penelope: Well, uh, I don't really have a choice, do I?
Aaron: No
Penelope: Well, then yes. I am hunky dorky, I am

Jennifer: This is Delilah Grennan. She was bludgeoned and raped during the night at her home in Lower Canaan, Ohio.
Emily: Lower where?
Jennifer: Small town forty miles outside of Cincinnati.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Staging the body face up with the arms across the chest like that.
Derek: Ritual. Nice hair, by the way.
[Morgan flips a lock of Reid's hair into his face]
Dr. Spencer Reid: [brushing his hair back] Thanks.
Jennifer: Uh, there's more. Small puncture wounds on her stomach. Note the lack of blood.
Emily: They were inflicted postmortem. Were there any other victims?
Jennifer: Kind of. Victimology and signature match a serial killer from the same town ten years ago. Six victims spanning over ten months. He called himself...
Aaron: The Angel Maker. I remember the case.
Dr. Spencer Reid: They caught that guy.
David: And executed him.
Jennifer: That's right. He was put to death by lethal injection a year ago yesterday.
Emily: Yesterday.
Derek: So we're looking for a copycat.
David: Honoring the anniversary of his hero's death.
Dr. Spencer Reid: It says here they found semen at the crime scene. Perhaps locals will get a DNA match when they run it through VICAP?
Jennifer: Well, that's where it gets weird. They ran it already and they got a match, too.
Emily: Well, if they already have a name, why'd they call us?
David: [reading the report] They've got to be kidding. The match they got back on the DNA is to a Cortland Bryce Ryan. Otherwise known as... the Angel Maker.

Jennifer: Eh, wheels up in 20

Emily: Bailey heard that your case is a cartel dump site. He wants DEA on it.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Oh, come on. We haven't IDed the bodies yet, but there's an elderly couple in there. Unless they broke bad, they wouldn't be on cartel's radar. You seen the photos?
Emily: It looks like some of the vics are preserved.
Dr. Tara Lewis: That's why he kept them underground. He needed the privacy. I'll bet he's revisiting.
Emily: Shit. Notebooks? Trophies? Anything we can expedite back here?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, the best lead is his photos. He stalked before he struck. He's probably keeping souvenirs, too. We'll know more about the vics when the coroner gets them back to the lab.
Emily: Ugh. You'll need to stay up there, but I really wish I could clone you.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, that's because I'm so delightful.

David: When in doubt, go with the guy with the long prison record.

Dr. Spencer Reid: You know, most assassinations are one and dones. Hit men acquire a target, execute them, and then disappear. Killing multiple victims without changing his M.O. exposes him and makes him trackable.
Jennifer: The victims were seemingly-average people with normal, middle-class lives. Nothing here says they would be targeted by a hit man.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah, killing random people's just not what a hit man does.
Luke: If they're moving this fast, they must be working off a list.
Matt: What if all three victims are key witnesses to a federal crime? That would put them on a list.
David: As would witness protection.
Emily: Garcia, start running through the WITSEC database. I'll reach out to them and the U.S. Attorney's office, see if there's any overlap.

Jennifer: You know what? This is my favorite part. This is where you hang yourself with your own tongue, so, please keep talking.
Malcolm: What are you doing here? You got a baby at home being raised by a man you're not married to. What are you doing here?
Jennifer: Well, it's work, but we make it work. Where's Cindi?
Malcolm: Work. I know all about work. Negotiating who does the dishes, fighting over who folds the laundry. Except Cindi and I never fight. She knows her role.
Emily: After you beat her into signing a contract.
Malcolm: What we have is a bond you know nothing about, but I'll tell you about it... if you ask permission.
Emily: Come on.
Malcolm: [to JJ] You're curious, aren't you? You want to know our secret.
[Prentiss and JJ leave the room]
Jennifer: Please let me go back in there.
Aaron: No.
Jennifer: His guard is down. He thinks he can manipulate me.
Aaron: We can't give him what he wants. We need to keep him off balance.

Charlie: Go on. Show it.
Julie: It's party.

Emily: Danny told me what he did to Kyle. Do you know what he did?
Dan: Yes, we know.
Emily: Everything he did? Danny stuffed... plane parts down Kyle's throat.
Dan: What?
Capt. Lancaster: Oh, God.
Dan: He wouldn't do that.
Emily: You told Danny to watch his temper. What else did you worry about? Danny said you had a puppy, but he died. Your son is ill, and he needs help. The truth is, the only thing Danny isn't capable of is remorse. He feels nothing. The son you were trying to protect... is a sociopath.

Jennifer: So it seems this unsub knew who lived here and where each person slept, implying a personal connection with the victims.
Dr. Spencer Reid: In spite of the home invasion, there's no sign of burglary, so he's mission-oriented.
Emily: He's highly organized and sophisticated.
Dr. Spencer Reid: The big question is Amanda. Did he think she was home or did he deliberately strike while she was out?
Jennifer: We need to talk to her.

David: [to the whole team] And one more thing. Hotch spoke to the director as to who should replace him. Don't worry, it won't be me. You know, I'm allergic to paperwork

Aaron: "Nothing can drive one closer to his insanity than a haunting memory refusing its own death" - Darnell Ford.

Emily: And nobody got to find out that Bob Adams was a good kid, a brave kid. The kind of kid you'd want to hang out with.
Aaron: We can give you back your story, Bob, but you have to drop the gun.
Bob: Isn't it funny when your dream comes true, it's never the way you want.

[on Reid's description of blood drinking as a possible part of "classic cannibalism"]
David: "Classic cannibalism"? Lovely job we have.

Emily: [answering a phone call] Yes, I approved Penelope Garcia's use of the BAU office, as today she's hosting a weekend workshop on...
[listening]
Emily: What? How loud is the music?

Jason: [Garcia knocks on his door] Yeah?
Penelope: Thank you for the flowers.
[Reads from the card]
Penelope: '"I know I can be challenging, but your work is appreciated", J. Gideon'. I appreciate your appreciation. And btw you're not challenging. Oh, no, you're totally challenging, but you're not challenging at all in a bad way, sir.
[Looks at some picture]
Penelope: Hey, is this your family?
Jason: Yeah, sort of
Penelope: Nice. Thanks again for the flowers
[turns around around to leave, passes JJ who just entered]
Penelope: Hey
Jennifer: Hey
Jason: What the hell does btw mean?
Jennifer: Internet shorthand for: by the way. You sent Garcia flowers?
Jason: No

David: [opening, voiceover] "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery." - Charles Caleb Colton

David: All of the fingers found in Rebecca's stomach are from the same person, but they aren't hers. So we have one other unknown victim.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, JJ and Garcia are searching for other missing women who fit his victimology.
Luke: You know, the fact that the... the killer forced Rebecca to swallow the fingers of a prior victim means that he must have had inside knowlede of the old cases.

Dr. Spencer Reid: [entering the BAU office] Case must be local. JJ said not to bring a go bag.
Derek: What's the Army doing here?
Emily: What the hell is going on?

Dr. Spencer Reid: I think I might just... stay home and, uh, man the tipline tonight. Clubs aren't really my thing.
Derek: Not a chance, kid; I need a wingman. Come on.
David: Actually, there is another angle we need to pursue.
Aaron: We still don't know what made the unsub change his victimology. What made him stop killing prostitutes and move into the clubs.
David: The answer might be something in Viper's class. But to figure that out we need to profile the teacher.
Derek: You need to bait him, then, with somebody he sees as a challenge.
Dr. Spencer Reid: We need to study his style up close and personal. It's gonna take someone he's already attracted to.
Emily: Ugh. Ugh, this is really gonna suck.

Dr. Spencer Reid: [Looking through glass at Professor Rothchild] I never have any normal fans.

Derek: Where are we?
David: Honestly? Nowhere. We just watched our two most viable suspects walk out the door.
Emily: If Adam isn't our unsub, he has all the makings to become one someday.
Aaron: Reid?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Tell me the question that he spiked under in the polygraph.
Derek: It was a control question to set the baseline.
Dr. Spencer Reid: It was a geometric equation?
Derek: Reid, I really think he was just intimidated. He tried, he got it wrong, but he wasn't supposed to know the answer anyway.
Dr. Spencer Reid: What if he lied? What if... what if he knew the answer to the question but intentionally got it wrong?
Jennifer: Why would he do that?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Because he realized that he wouldn't know that answer.
Derek: You're losing me, kid.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Adam said he wasn't getting any rest. He takes midday naps because he's always exhausted. He has a history of blackouts, reclusive behavior, prolonged repeated abuse suffered at the hands of a dominant male who transferred abuse from his female spouse to his prepubescent child.
Aaron: Where are you going with this?
Dr. Spencer Reid: What if our ubsub couple isn't a couple at all?
Aaron: Dissociative identity disorder.
David: You think Adam's a multiple personality?
Emily: Well, it fits. Recurrent physical abuse, knowledge he shouldn't have. We've seen this before.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Look at this. All right? The-the first intervention is timid. It's apprehensive, right? But then he gets knocked down... there's a moment of calm, and then his entire body language changes. I saw this exact same transformation when Adam left the station, only it wasn't rage, it was, uh... arrogance. Like... like the alter ego wanted me to know.
Aaron: Why?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I don't know. Power, control. All I know is the person that stared me down over there was not Adam. He's not assertive like that. He doesn't make eye contact.
Jennifer: So you think the stress of the interrogation blurred the line between Adam and his alter personality?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I think the unsub surfaced for just a moment. It-it-it knew the answer to the question, realized Adam wouldn't, and lied.

Jennifer: We profiled the unsub as delusional. What if Stoughton being a great-great-great whatever is just part of his delusion?
Aaron: Or the discovery of being a direct descendant triggered the delusion.
Dr. Spencer Reid: He'd look into his ancestry.
Sgt. Joe Mahaffey: That would be easy to do here. Salt Lake City has the largest family history library in the world.

Derek: Cheerful.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Depression is a vicious cycle. It frequently manifests itself in the degradation of one's personal living environment, which in turn, fuels the depression, which then worsens the living environment.
Derek: I'll take a look around in here. Why don't you check out the kitchen?
Dr. Spencer Reid: The kitchen.
Derek: Is that a problem?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Frankly, I'm not too anxious to see the perishable food version of this room.

Dr. Spencer Reid: Look at that. At the turn of the 16th century, rose tattoos were put on men who were sentenced to death.
Trooper: Really?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Yeah, if they escaped, it served to identify them, but now roses pretty much symbolize pure love.
David: Pure love, right before he kills them.

Jennifer: [looking at family photos of Kate] Look at her. Has she always been a fish?
Patty: We started her out in swim lessons our second summer down here. When was that, Jeff, '95?
Jennifer: Who's this? Your son?
Patty: Drew.
Jennifer: So they were on the same swim team, but he looks like he's a few years younger?
Patty: Was. He had leukemia.
Jennifer: I'm so sorry.
Patty: Katie was always very protective of him. Hit her the hardest.

Derek: Next time, show a little leg
Elle: Morgan! The only time you gonnal see a leg from me is when I'm about to kick your ass!

Aaron: Mr. Sykes, we're investigating a murder. And I don't speak in parables, so this should be very easy to understand: if you interfere with us in any way, I will see to it that you are charged with, and prosecuted for, obstruction of justice.

Stephen: Good to hear. But how are you doing?
Emily: Luke and Fiona are working to ensure Reid's safety in prison, so he can make it to trial, but... Stephen, what if he's found guilty?
Stephen: You remember that case we worked together in Auvergne?
Emily: Yeah! Yeah, that was a tough case
Stephen: Well, I thought when we took that one on trail, we were going to lose, but you told me to let the system work. And you were right, so that's what we have to do now. Let the system work
Emily: Wait a minute! That guy was guilty. Right now we don't want the system to work!
Stephen: Well, I was hoping you wouldn't remember that. That's why I don't give pep talks

Roger: [Reid is walking up to a press conference] The dates match, eh, when Zodiac stopped killing, my cousin was put in mental hospital in Mexico. He was released two month ago
Reporter: Do you have anything more specific?
Roger: He was, eh, working on a production The Mikado in '68. Zodiac talked about The Mikado in a letter
Dr. Spencer Reid: Excuse me. I'm Dr. Reid with the Behavior Analysis Unit. Was your cousin by chance a fan of Wagner? Because, eh, a CD of the Tragic Overture was sent to the police this morning
Roger: He loved Wagner, specially the Tragic Overture. It's him!
Dr. Spencer Reid: Oh, yeah. Well, for the record: a CD was not sent to the police this morning and the Tragic Overture was written by Brahms, not Wagner. So luckily, I guess it's not your cousin!
[Into the TV camera]
Dr. Spencer Reid: The FBI would greatly appreciate if people would stop making false claims to get their 15 minutes of fame. Thank you. Thank you very much

Penelope: Okay, know this: most adoption people are like the nicest, most dedicated people in the world. There are however real skeezy ones
Dr. Spencer Reid: How skeezy?
Penelope: Super skeezy. I've got a spreadsheet of one of them, expecting compensation for the baby I'm having
Derek: Something you want to tell me, Garcia?
Penelope: Uhm, that's the sad part, my prince. The genetically perfect offspring of Penelope Garcia and Derek Morgan wouldn't fetch top dollar
Jennifer: Who does?
Penelope: White babies are in higher demand than minorities. Boys are more popular than girls, at least this year anyway. And then there is the Swedish supermodel rule
Emily: The what?
Penelope: If I were to deliver a blond haired, blue eye, bundle of joy I would set for life. I would!

David: Jag-off ambushed us, didn't even see him coming

Dr. Spencer Reid: All these calls were made within the last two days
Jennifer: Sometimes what an unsub does actually make sense

Ethan: What in the world is this? Seriously.
Jennifer: Ethan, I am so sorry.
Ethan: This is ridiculous. They seem to think I've hurt those girls or something.
Jennifer: I know. It's just we have a warrant for your house. And they've already pulled your computer.
David: [watching outside] Is that...?
Emily: No, she's bluffing.
David: That's a hell of a bluff. Guys like him keep souvenirs, usually on computers.
Ethan: Did you see what was on it?
Jennifer: I did.

Aaron: The assessment's routine. I asked her to let me do it rather than bring in somebody from the outside.
Derek: So, let me guess, it's about the five stages of grief. You want to figure out where we all are. All right. Denial. I'm fine, this can't be happening to me. Well, it didn't happen to me, did it? So, that rules that out. What else is there? Bargaining. Depression. Acceptance. Well, obviously I haven't accepted it, otherwise I wouldn't be in here. So, where does that leave me?
Aaron: Angry.
Derek: Angry. Yeah. Yes, sometimes I feel like I want to quit my job and spend my time chasing down the son of a bitch who killed Emily. You're damn right, I'm angry.

Michael: Take your time, Matt. I've been thinking about this for years.
Jennifer: Matt, don't. I'm fine... I'm fine... I'm fine.
Section: Okay, okay, that's it. Just stop! I'll do it. Just stop.
[types his code]

Dr. Spencer Reid: I heard you were hungry, so I thought I might bring you a little surprise.
Penelope: What good is in this? It's a croissant, and it's still warm! Oh, you love me, and I love you! I... I know I flirt with Derek, but that's like animal blood in the nostrils kind of thing. What we have is a pure transcendent, blueberry filled...

Dr. Spencer Reid: You've been quiet.
Kate: Sorry.
Dr. Spencer Reid: You know, a disaster of this magnitude is really hard to wrap your mind around, let alone your feelings.
Kate: You don't need to worry about me. What, are you are gonna profile me now?
Dr. Spencer Reid: It's hard to turn it off sometimes.
Kate: Look I guess, I just should tell you this... Hotch and Rossi already know. My sister and brother-in-law died in 9/11. They were working at the Pentagon.
Dr. Spencer Reid: So sorry. I imagine this must obviously bring back a lot of painful memories.
Kate: Yeah. Anyway I don't wanna do that weepy agent with a tragic past. You don't have to walk on eggshells around me.
Dr. Spencer Reid: My girlfriend was killed in front of me and my mom has schizophrenia... since we're sharing.
Kate: Thanks for letting me know. After my sister died, I adopted all ten of her kids.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Wow!
Kate: I'm kidding.
[Both laugh]
Kate: They had a baby girl, Meg. We took her in... actually Chris and I moved into their house. Anyway, she is thirteen and the light of my life.
Dr. Spencer Reid: She sounds terrific.
Kate: Yeah, she is. Maybe I could bring her by so you can meet her sometime.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I would really like that.

Emily: [to Reid] You know I could've gotten you a coloring book at the airport.

Dr. Spencer Reid: Strange, in this case the abused actually became the abuser!
Penelope: That doesn't happen a lot?
Dr. Spencer Reid: One in eight
Penelope: We found the one

Dr. Spencer Reid: You know, that profile kind of makes it sound like schizophrenia leads to serial killing.
Derek: That's not what we said at all, Reid.
Dr. Spencer Reid: You know, my mom has schizophrenia. There are many different types.
Derek: I know that.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Catatonic, disorganized... Just because someone suffers from an inability to organize their thoughts, or they can't bathe or dress themselves, it doesn't mean they'd stab someone in the chest 30 times postmortem.
Derek: Reid, what's really going on?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Our UnSub's hallucinations aren't fractured like a typical schizophrenic. They're vivid and clear, leading me to believe that we're missing an important variable. Rather than making crazy conjectures, I think we should be trying to figure out what it is.
Derek: Okay, listen to me. I know this is a scary age for you. It's when schizophrenic breaks happen. Have you talked to anybody about this?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Emily.
Derek: Have you seen a doctor?
Dr. Spencer Reid: They all say I'm fine.
Derek: Then why don't you believe them?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Because predicting one's chances of developing a genetic condition are like finding a penny in an ocean. I have terrible headaches. I can't sleep at night. I can't focus on our cases. I only read five books last week.
Derek: Come on, kid, you gotta cut yourself some slack. You're also depressed about Prentiss, and I get it. We all are. Reid, I miss her every day. But if your mind was splitting, do you really think you'd be able to figure out that this team is missing a variable?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I'm just speculating that we are. I need to prove it.
Derek: Okay, then, you do that. The moment you are wandering around the streets aimlessly, that's when I'll be concerned about you. Come on, pretty boy. Let's get to work.

David: What about sexual violations?
Aaron: No, the ME's report says there's no evidence of sexual activity before death
Penelope: So, what's he doing with them?
Aaron: That's what we need to find out

David,: [voiceover] The sea has never been friendly to man. At most it has been the accomplice of human restlessness. -Joseph Conrad

Commander: He knows who did it, but he won't tell us. The guy's a wackadoodle!
Aaron: Well, unfortunately we can't dismiss him yet.
Commander: The fact is no one else has come forward with a similar statement.
Aaron: That's because the population is so sparse out here. We should be grateful for that.
Commander: Alright. Can you get him to talk?
Aaron: I can try, but I should probably do it alone. I think he has a problem with you.
Commander: My race or my gender?
Aaron: Probably both.
Aaron: Wonderful. As long as you can get some answers, be my guest.

Dr. Spencer Reid: Solanine is a potent toxin and hallucinogen that comes from a black nightshade plant. The unripe berries were used in the Middle Ages for torture. The effect it has is like a bad acid trip.
David: That's not fun. Trust me.
[chuckles]
Dr. Spencer Reid: More recently it's been used in small doses for asthma.

Derek: A policeman pulled over a man, and he said to him, "Sir, your eyes look bloodshot. Have you been drinking?" And that man replied, "Officer, your eyes look glazed. Have you been eating donuts?"
[people laugh]
Derek: You see, that right there was last joke that my father ever told me before he died. A special gift in my life are the eleven years that I did have with him, because, as brief as they may have been, my dad gave me unconditional love. He taught me a sense of duty, and he gave me a reason to keep working hard, because each and every day, I do all that I know how to do to make my father proud. Now, my dad was taken from this world way too soon, but if he wasn't, I wouldn't be the man that I am today. Now, you may be wondering why I'm talking about him here. It's because my father, the man that I admire the most, looked up to Mr. Jason Ryder, who we honor here tonight. Jason was the most important person in my father's life outside of his family. He was his partner and his best friend. Like my father, Jason strived to be the best he could be. He inspired me to be fearless and to go out into the world and find my inner light, and for that, Jason, I am eternally grateful.
[applause]

Dr. Tara Lewis: Scratch took Emily. I saw him.
Luke: Yeah. We know. We're looking for him.
Dr. Tara Lewis: He dosed her.
David: In the SUV while she was knocked out?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah.
[flashback, with Tara narrating in voiceover]
Dr. Tara Lewis: He brought his gas with him.
Peter: Your legs are broken. Your right arm is broken. You're in severe traction, and you're paralyzed. You feel unimaginable agony all over your body unless I give you high doses of painkiller.
Jennifer: [the scene returns to the hospital] She would wake in a delusion he'd have total control over.
Luke: He thinks she knows where Hotch is, so he's trying to trick her. She's one of the smartest people we know. She'd see through it.
Jennifer: So Scratch would go even farther.
Luke: Sometimes interrogators even simulate death. Man, he could make it feel like the real thing.
Jennifer: No. That wouldn't work. Remember, Rossi, when Prentiss told us about when she died, for real died, how for her, it was just dark and cold?
David: That's right. If he made her experience some out-of-body vision, she'd know it was a lie.

Dr. Spencer Reid: What's going on?
David: Shut up and listen.

Emily: [voiceover] "It is only in love and murder that we still remain sincere." - Friedrich Durrenmatt.

Dr. Spencer Reid: This building has three exits, north, south and west. You're here to target a woman, but you don't want to attract attention.
Aaron: Well, standing in the middle, gawking at passing women, would certainly attract attention. Like you're doing now.
Dr. Spencer Reid: What's that?
Emily: Just like that. IQ of 187 is slashed to 60.

David: I have to take a leak.
Elias: Too bad.
David: You're gonna let me piss my pants?
Elias: Should've worn your Depends before you came into my house.
David: Will you cut the old man shit? It's condescending.
Elias: Good.'Cause I got to tell you, when Sydney told me that you were in the house, I was expecting David Rossi, the legend. But what I got was David Rossi, the AARP member. I was hoping for a challenge. Barely even raised my pulse.
David: Well, I can wiggle out of my pants. Here we go. Hey. Hey!
Elias: What? You're not pissing in your own car.
David: Apparently, I don't have a choice.
Elias: Yes, you do. You can wait until I unload your car and got a new one.
David: Oh, good luck with that. The smell is gonna be awful. Does urine have DNA? Oh, wait. I'm so old.I can't remember.
Elias: Fine, fine, fine.

Jennifer: What do you suppose this is all about?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Call me cynical, but considering it's 2 AM I doubt it's good news!
Jennifer: You are a genius

Jennifer: Do you always keep one with you?
Derek: Yeah. But the one I gave Angel was the only one that had wings on it.
Jennifer: You know, Angel's never gonna let that go. What you shared, I know that wasn't easy.
Derek: None of this is easy.
Jennifer: I can't help but picture little Morgan. You were so alone.
Derek: I'm here right now because of what that man did to me.
Jennifer: I know. I'm just... sorry.

Jennifer: Now, that I noticed.
Derek: Is something going on?
Emily: How did it go the other night?
Derek: What happened the other night?
Dr. Spencer Reid: You okay?
David: Well, why wouldn't I be?
Jennifer: You seem distracted.
David: I'm considering a purchase.
Derek: Come on, now, Rossi, you know we're not buying that. What's really going on?
David: Look, it was a late night with Ringo and not enough coffee. I mean, the guy's a world-class drummer, but don't think I didn't wipe the floor with him in Rock Band.
Jennifer: All right, what do you think?
Emily: He could be telling the truth. I only played him to the easy level.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I can't tell.
David: And you never will.
Aaron: Let's get started.

Penelope: Are you sure?
Aaron: It's Gideon

Dr. Spencer Reid: You think they'll really terminate us if we can't run fast enough?
Penelope: Probably something worse. They'll probably make us take another fit test.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I'd rather be terminated.
Penelope: I just hope the PT instructor isn't a jerk. Those jock guys are always such jerks.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Yeah, total jerks. That's probably him right now.
Penelope: Oh, look, he's totally walking like a jerk.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Yeah, it's a total jerk walk.
Penelope: Total jerk walk.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Wait a minute. Wait, I think it's Morgan... Yeah.
Penelope: Oh, my God, it is. Why are you here?
Derek: It looks like I'm your new PT instructor. Watkins got sick. So, today's your lucky day. I'm your guy. Ha-ha.
Penelope: Awesome. That's awesome.

Penelope: The Helmsman's Wife. I just finished it. It's so sad.
Jeff: I just started it.
Penelope: Oh! Sorry. It's a great read to that bit. The end, the sad bit, with the wife. Super tragic. You know?
Jeff: I do now.
Penelope: You're Jeff, right?
Jeff: You are...
Penelope: Penelope Garcia. Nice to see you.
Jeff: I'm sorry. I don't think we've met.
Penelope: We haven't. I'm with the FBI.
Jeff: Good for you.
Penelope: Why did you pull that story?
Jeff: You should know.
Penelope: The FBI didn't tell you to pull it, did they?
Jeff: No, no, no, I'm not saying jack to you. You already ruined one ending for me.
Penelope: Listen, two families died in those fires. You were suspicious, and you were right to be.
Jeff: You don't look like an agent to me.
Penelope: I'm a hired nerd for the Behavioral Analysis Unit.
Jeff: You think it's a serial killer?
Penelope: I think that theory should be at the beginning part of your story.
Jeff: There's no story. Not the one that I want to tell.
Penelope: Okay, maybe not now, but when whoever is telling you to pull it is no longer a threat, with the right source it could be front page. It could be the next Watergate. It could lead to a book. Your book.
Jeff: The threat being to the shareholders.

Luke: Preppers typically plan to shelter in place, bug in. Which means that they want to ride out any bad situation at home.
David: What if they can't?
Luke: Then they bug out and they go to secret locations in remote areas.
Matt: Well, if Coleman is keeping the women and kids all in one place, it would have to be a really big space.
Penelope: I got a home and a work address for him, and also he has rented multiple storage locations in the last five years.
Emily: You know what to do.
Penelope: Yeah. Sent it to your phones.

Dr. Tara Lewis: [closing quote] "We're all going to die, all of us, what a circus. That alone should make us love each other, but it doesn't. We are terrorized and flattened by trivialities, we are eaten up by nothing" - Charles Bukowski

Penelope: Hey, take care of yourself
Derek: Come on, you know me
Penelope: Yeah, I do, that's why I am saying it!

David: Jim Jones pulled the same stunt! They did a test run just like this years before they did the real thing.
Aaron: [to Torre] Prepare your men to go in.
Benjamin: Be still. There was no poison.
Aaron: Dan.
Benjamin: Instead, a test of faith. Because your adversary, the devil, waltzes about as a roaring lion, choosing whom he may devour. Watch each other for signs of weakness. You are your brother's keeper.
Aaron: Tell 'em to stand down.
Dan: Yes, sir.
[to Rossi]
Dan: Nice call.

Alex: [sees Reid writing formulae] I always wondered what Spencer Reid's grocery list looked like.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Uh, it's actually, ih, Riemann's hypothesis.
Alex: Which is?
Dr. Spencer Reid: It's a mathematical conjecture from the 19th century that states that the Riemann Zeta function zeroes all lie on the critical line.
Alex: Yeah, I get it.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I noodle it from time to time. It sort of helps me unwind, you know?
Alex: Oh, well, since we're on the subject of unwinding, how'd your date go?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Uh, had to cancel at the last minute.
Alex: Oh? You did or she did?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Um, sort of both did, but... it's fine. I talked to her this morning and things are good.

Emily: [picks up her ringing phone] Go ahead, Garcia
Penelope: [sipping through a strange straw] Hmm! So, I'v been reading message board after message board, and let me tell you, Hot Take: don't read the comments. Also I've discovered something nitro cold brew coffee. I think the military developed it to keep solders up weeks at the time, feeling great. Also I have a lead
Emily: Ok, let's hear it

Luke: Is that a body bag?
Sheriff: Damn. Another one.
Dr. Tara Lewis: What's going on?
Sheriff: Remember I said this town is on pins and needles? This is what kicked it off.
Emily: There are bodies in the lake?
Sheriff: Old bodies. Skeletons, more like. Lake Palmer is a man-made reservoir. Before it got flooded, all of this out here was just rugged canyon. So if someone drowns, they tend to get tangled in the submerged trees. Hardly ever make it back up to the surface. But with this drought...
Emily: The surface is coming down to them.

Ashley: Sometimes we do everything right, and we still lose. He was a sociopath. It wasn't your fault.

Aaron: Claude may have kidnapped those boys on his own, but you put the events of the last few days in motion for a reason.
Antonia: And you want me to tell you what it is. Well, you're going to have to prove you got a little bit more going on than a fancy title and nice suits to deserve an answer.
Aaron: When you were fourteen, you missed almost a year of school due to an unspecified illness. During the same year, a 15-year-old boy on a neighboring farm was killed in a hunting accident. I think these two events were related. You weren't ill. You were pregnant, and the neighbor boy was the father of your child. Your father, the German minister, the authoritarian, punished you for breaking the rules. He made you have the baby at home, and he murdered your boyfriend.
Antonia: Go on.
Aaron: At first, we profiled you as an extreme narcissist, but that's just a cover. You're actually full of self-loathing. And every time you killed a runaway teen, you were killing yourself or your boyfriend for lacking discipline. What happened to your baby, Antonia?
Antonia: I can't tell you that. But as a reward for being so clever, I will tell you this. There's a storm coming, Agent Hotchner, and you're about to be swept away.

Dr. Spencer Reid: 5.30 in the morning, East Coast time. You don't seem tired at all.
David: I am not tired. I am a night person.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Speaking about that: you may want to reconsider revamping your circadian clock to more traditional chronotype.
David: Yeah, I'll put that on my to-do list.
Dr. Spencer Reid: No, seriously. Studies have found that at night owls show reduced integrity of white matter in the brain compared to early risers.
David: While I appreciate your concern, I'm very happy with my brain just like it is.

Dr. Spencer Reid: We should also consider that our unsub might not be a hit man, that he's operating off a list of victims based on their perceived transgressions.
Jennifer: A moral enforcer.
Emily: Well, either way, we need to assume there are other targets. We'll run the case out of here until we can predict his next move. But based on his speed, we will have to work fast.

Sheriff: Small town like ours, we're not used to this. Folks are jittery as hell.
Emily: Understandably.
Sheriff: Robbery's one thing, and Lord knows we've had a lot of that around here lately. But these murders...
Emily: You've had an increase in robberies?
Sheriff: Yes, ma'am. Burglaries, petty thefts. It's on account of the drought.
Matt: Well, why would lack of rain cause an increase in burglaries?
Sheriff: Our local economy has taken a hit. A big chunk of our revenue is from tourism and outdoor recreation; fishing, boating. But everything's drying up. We had to shut down the marina up at Lake Palmer and close it off from fishing. I don't suppose you folks brought some rain-making secrets with you?
Matt: Well, the BAU has a variety of skill sets. Unfortunately, that's not one of them.

Jennifer: [closing quotation] "There are times in our lives when we have to realize that our past is precisely what it is and we cannot change it. But we can change the story we tell ourselves about it. And by doing that, we can change the future." - Eleanor Brown.

Penelope: So let's talk about weird science. There are certain types of coral that, when they come into contact with bleach, release something called a palytoxin. So the coral, it, like, emits this aerosol, and then that aerosol causes the throat and the lungs to close and the eyes and the skin to burn.
Jennifer: Well, that's the mystery chemical weapon the M.E. couldn't place.
David: So let's play this out. He pours in the bleach, coral spits out its toxin, and mother nature does the rest.
Jennifer: It's not murder. It's an accident.

Derek: So tell me, what does keep young Dr. Reid awake at night? Wait, let me guess. Memorizing some obscure textbook? No, no, no. Working on cold fusion? No, I got it, I got it, I got it. Watching Star Trek and laughing at the physics mistakes.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Actually, there aren't that many scientific errors in Star Trek. Especially considering how long ago it was made. There are certain improbabilities, but not that many outright errors.
Derek: Right.

David: 7 hours. A proper addict could kill a whole pack. Did you ever smoke?
Emily: I used to do a lot of things

Penelope: [Kate enters] Welcome to the dark forest. Enter at your own risk.

Melissa: Wait. So you got there before them. How?
Emily: By helicopter. Not the Bureau's helicopter. This one belongs to the police force.
Melissa: What?
Emily: There's been a push. Police forces across the country have been purchasing military-grade hardware.
Melissa: Yeah. Like grenade launchers and tanks.
Emily: Roswell doesn't need a tank. It needs a helicopter. People get lost in the desert. Sometimes an FBI agent like me needs to get to a cabin in the middle of nowhere as fast as possible. Based on your warning the sheriff and I landed a mile away and we came up with a plan.

David: Her name is Chrissy Delaney. She has a family who loves her. Where is she?
Dylan: I don't know.
David: Bullshit!
Dylan: [Rossi lays out crime scene pictures] Oh, my God. What the fuck?
David: These were her parents. What's wrong with you?
Dylan: Wait, wait, wait. I didn't hurt anybody, man. I just bought the car.
Luke: What... what do you mean you just bought the car?
Dylan: Like, an hour ago, all right? She was crying and she was out of it, but I asked if she was okay and she said yes. She was just sad about the car, and I swear to God, man, that's it. Holy shit. She wasn't okay. Does she know somebody killed her parents?
Luke: How did you arrange to buy the car? Did you talk to Chrissy?
Dylan: I never talked to anyone, all right? I texted after I saw an online ad two days ago that said "10 grand cash, pick up at Wal-Mart today." I even got pictures this morning.
Luke: We're gonna need the contact that you used.
Dylan: Number's on my phone. I... I handed her 10 grand in cash. Did I just bankroll this girl's abduction?

Derek: [Open quote] "Beware the fury of a patient man", John Dryden

Aaron: I catch killers, I save lives, I am a hero until my key hits my front door and then I am just the father and the husband who is never there
Jason: Yeah, I get that one
Aaron: Here's the thing: when I am home, I am in this silent panic because I know that I have to be as good as I can, as fast as I can, because any minute the phone is gonna ring and my time is up.

Dr. Spencer Reid: [opening, voiceover] Barbara Grizzuti Harrison once said, "All acts performed in the world begin in the imagination."

Assistant: Because this is exactly the kind of case the BAU takes from here on
David: Maybe it's just me, but I need at little help understanding our new case selection criteria
Assistant: We want cases with good optics that are also quick and easy to clear

Derek: [opening quote] "People often say that this or that person ''has not yet found himself'', but the self is not something one finds, it's something one creates" - Thomas Szasz

Penelope: Not today, Satan!

[episode closing quote]
Aaron: "The basis of shame is not some personal mistake of ours but that this humiliation is seen by everyone." - Milan Kundera

David: [opening quote] "There is always one moment in childhood when the door opens and lets the future in" - Graham Greene

Penelope: Penelope, Garcia. My friends call me *wonderful* or Garcia.

Hannah: [With Emily and JJ; knocks on master bedroom door] Mom! Dad!
Alison: [Panics] Don't come in!
Hannah: Someone was up the door, so I let them in
Alison: Honey, you know we talked about this!
Hannah: You said it was okay, if it was the police. And it's the FBI
Bill: [Engaged in bdsm] FBI! What's the FBI doing here?
Hannah: [Tied in chains] I have no idea! I'm slipping... I'm slipping... Aah!
Jennifer: [Feeling uncomfortable] Hannah? You know what? We can, we can... we can take it from here
Hannah: Okay. Just so you know, sometimes it takes him a while to untie her

Aaron: I'm supposed to be asking how you're doing.
David: I've always had troubles letting people in. But this is different. I guess I've come to realize I'm more married to this team than I ever was to three ex-wives.

Charles: Just let me do my job!

Dr. Spencer Reid: You all right?
Jason: What?
Dr. Spencer Reid: You seem unhappy.
Jason: I am unhappy. I'm tired of people using religion to justify the terrible things they do.

Aaron: Detective Gordinski.
Captain: Captain, actually. I was promoted two years ago.
Aaron: You remember Dr. Reid.
Captain: Ah, what's it been, six, seven years?
[extends his hand]
Dr. Spencer Reid: The number of pathogens passed during a handshake is staggering. It's actually safer to kiss.
Captain: [Retracts his hand] Ah, yeah, I do remember you.

Penelope: [replying to Cooper] Roger that. I'm gonna hack like the wind. Prepare to be wowed, sir.

Brandi: You're one of the FBI agents, aren't you?
Jason: Is there something you want to tell me?
Brandi: Do you think God is vengeful?
Jason: I don't know.
Brandi: You don't think He punishes us?
Jason: After Hurricane Katrina, I read some essays by religious scholars. One writer said God was punishing America for its immorality; New Orleans was a wicked city, like Sodom and Gomorrah. Another one, a priest from New Orleans, he thought the hurricane was proof of God's love, 'cause the levees didn't break until after the storm was over. If they'd broken sooner, thousands would've died. So... I guess the answer to your question depends on whether or not you think you have something to be punished for.

Penelope: According to his social media, his goal was to run a marathon he said: "nothing was going to stop him"
David: Yeah, well, we all know how that turned out

Matt: [opening quotation] A Lakota proverb warns "Do not speak of evil, for it creates curiosity in the heart of the young."

Dr. Spencer Reid: Mrs. Tanner, please don't take this the wrong way, but exactly what drug are you addicted to? You're displaying symptoms of withdrawal.
Kelsey: [indignantly] Are you crazy?
Derek: Ma'am, we saw two deals go down on the other side of the park when we arrived. You were here to buy, weren't you? That's what had you distracted.
Kelsey: I can't believe that you... actually think I...
Derek: Your child is missing, Miss Tanner. Every minute, every half-minute, counts. You need to tell us the truth, and you need to tell us now.

Emily: [reading a hand-written notebook] "Her legs were perfect, like a dancer's. Sinew and tight muscle. I'd love to hear her bones snap as they rip through her flesh."
Stephen: But this is more than just sadism. This bone breaking is some kind of psychopathic compulsion.
Emily: Can you imagine if it was your kid living down here?

David: How is the coffee around here?
Chief: It ain't Starbucks
David: Well, that is not necessarily a bad thing. Me, I'm Italian, I like it strong. How about you?
Chief: Hot and fresh

[first lines]
Bethany: This is so stupid. What are we, twelve?
Ally: Okay, we're just having fun. It's all this is.
Bethany: Hunting for a ghost in the woods is not my idea of fun.
Ally: It's not fun, it's real. And we're gonna see him if it takes all night.
Chelsea: All night? Are you... we left a perfectly good party for this, and I'm not freezing my ass off out here all night.
Ally: Well, fine. I'll stay out here by myself.

Jennifer: Of all the departments, why'd you choose the BAU?
Aaron: You know, I had prosecuted dozens of murder cases, and by the time they reached my desk, it always felt like it was too late. I wanted to, um... stop them before they got to my desk.

[Lyla is explaining her history with Cy in high school]
Lyla: I didn't know what to do. My friends laughed, but... I didn't want to be mean, so I went in the closet with him.
Derek: And what happened next?
Lyla: I let him feel me up.
Emily: How did he behave after that?
Lyla: He started following me around at school. Then one day, he overheard me tell a friend how gross I thought he was.
Derek: How he talked, how he smelled.
Matt: [Lyla nods] Why didn't you tell me this?
Lyla: I was sixteen. We had just started dating.
Emily: Does Cy know about your recent marital problems?
Matt: Yeah. I... I told him a couple of months ago.
Derek: [to Lyla] And then he probably started making advances towards you which you had to reject.
Emily: That's what triggered the killings.
Lyla: [crying] I did this?
Derek: No. No, ma'am. The events did.

Dr. Tara Lewis: Look, we don't put words in peoples mouths! That's not how our interviews work

David: I, eh, may be able to hit on some old contacts, but I need to do it alone
Emily: Contacts?
Derek: Do we want to know?
Emily: Best not

Elias: [closing quotation] "The witching hour was a special moment in the middle of the night when every child and every grown-up was in a deep, deep sleep, and all the dark things came out from hiding and had the world all to themselves." - Roald Dahl.

Penelope: That is a new deal and as fast as a caffeinated cheetah riding a lightning bolt, I am on it!

Aaron: [Aaron is on a cell phone, trying desparately to get home, where Foyet is waiting and getting ready to kill Haley] Jack, hug your mom for me.
Jack: [they embrace] Mama hugged me too tight.
Haley: [she releases Jack] I'm sorry.
Jack: [Jack sees Haley's tears] Why are you sad?
Haley: [trying to smile and sound upbeat] I just love you so much!
Jack: [Haley hugs Jack again] I gotta go... I'm working on a case.
Haley: OK.
[Jack leaves the room, Foyet watches him]
The: He's so cute. He's like a little junior G Man.
[calls after Jack]
The: I'll be right out, Jackie-boy!
Aaron: Is he gone?
Haley: [drying tears] Yes.
Aaron: You're so strong, Haley! You're stronger than I ever was!
Haley: [Foyet comes up behind Haley, she's anxious] You'll hurry, right?
Aaron: [fighting tears] I know you didn't sign on for this.
Haley: [much more calm] Neither did you.
Aaron: I'm sorry for everything.
Haley: [realizing she's about to die] Promise me that you will tell him how we met, and how you used to make me laugh.
Aaron: Haley...
Haley: He needs to know that you weren't always so serious, Aaron. I want him to believe in love, because it... it is the most important thing... but you need to show him. Promise me!
Aaron: I promise.
[gunshot]

Penelope: [briefing the team] You're headed to Lewiston, Maine. It is the second largest city in the state. It is also a place that could be the setting for any horror story ever made

Penelope: Florida's a stand-your-ground state.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Castle Doctrine based on English common law that allows homeowners to use deadly force to protect their land.
Penelope: Yeah, it's a highfalutin way of saying that the gun laws are lax at best. After the 2008 elections, the Floridians were nervous about losing their second amendment rights, and gun sales shot through the roof, pun intended.

Matt: Ally has schizophrenia?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Early onset. And we confirmed it with her parents. It's rare in teens, but it can happen. The telltale symptom was her face blindness. Schizophrenics have extreme visual processing problems, most obviously in meeting new people or experience new environments.
Luke: Her parents were trying to keep her off medication. That's why the cops and Garcia didn't flag it.
Emily: Besides the parents, who else knew?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Just Bethany and Chelsea. Why?
Emily: Lot of holes in her story.
Luke: Well, we noticed that, too. I mean, she wasn't bound, but the other two were. She could have escaped, instead she magically woke up in the forest.
Matt: Covered in her friends' blood. And most schizophrenics are not violent, but they can be pushed to violence if they're threatened. Maybe she did this, but in her mind, it was the Tall Man.
Emily: And that brings us back to Bethany and Chelsea's texts about Ally, and if their agenda was upsetting enough to induce a break. JJ's with Chelsea's dad now. Maybe she can find out what they needed to talk about.

Dr. Spencer Reid: Have you determined whether or not she was raped?
Doc: I didn't even think to look

David: [making a toast] They say that good things happen to good people

David: [closing, voiceover] "I am not concerned that you have fallen. I am concerned that you will rise." - Abraham Lincoln

Emily: "Nothing revives thepast so completely, as a smell that was once associated with it." ~~ Novelist Vladimir Nabokov

Dr. Spencer Reid: You're not Raphael.
Tobias: Do I look like Raphel?

Emily: We have to go to the courts.
David: How? It's not like you can just walk up to the judge.
Emily: Or, I could.
David: Whoa, whoa! Now, is that legal, Emily?
Emily: It is. It's just inappropriate and a relative long shot.

Derek: Hey girl, you're on speaker. Behave.
Penelope: Or what, you'll spank me?

James: Lara is beginning to question our mission. I can't control her anymore.
Catherine: She's 16, which means she's at a vulnerable stage. The Devil will take notice of her now.
James: What do I do?
Catherine: My poor noble James, you'll have to strike first if you want to save those you love.

Alex: And the auto shop aids in conversion how?
Connor: We found that immersing the boys in traditional male gender roles stimulates an appreciation of their own masculinity.

Penelope: I need baby kitten pics asap!
Kate: Oh, have you seen that hippo who lives with the family?
Penelope: What?
Kate: Sleeps with a blanket, gets massages, eats better than I do
Penelope: Where is that?
Kate: South Africa, it's amazing
Penelope: Trust me, I have an arsenal of cuteness. Have you seen the one with the baby elephant?
Kate: Oh, with the baby chicks? Yes! I love that one!
Dr. Spencer Reid: Eh, hey, guys?
Kate: Sorry
Penelope: Sorry

Dr. Spencer Reid: You had eyes on me while I was in prison, didn't you?
Cat: Spencie, don't ruin the moment.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I don't want to, but I'm on the clock. Answer my question. Am I right?
Cat: Yes, you're right. I wanted to make sure things were just as uncomfortable for you as they were for me.
Luke: That's what we missed. The inside man that's been helping them.
David: He didn't just work at Cat's prison, he worked at hers and Reid's.
Emily: Garcia, look for any overlap.
Penelope: Compiling now. Here's something. Lionel Wilkins. He worked at both Mount Pleasant and and the Millburn Correctional Facility.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Okay, look, this guy could have gotten her pregnant. But there's no way he could have gotten his hand on Reid's file.
Stephen: Well, not directly. He could have called in a favor from a friend at the Bureau.
Luke: So someone must have wanted to screw us this whole time.
Emily: Someone who's not gonna work for the Bureau much longer.

[last lines]
David: Well, I guess this is proof positive that ancestry ain't all bad.
Penelope: How about a toast to the 30 or 40 of us?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Cheers!
Derek: Cheers!
Jennifer: Cheers!
David: Salute!

Penelope: Boy, was I wrong, which is rare, but it happens.

David: [opening quote, voiceover] "There is no refuge from confession but suicide, and suicide is confession." - Daniel Webster.

David: [voiceover] What it lies in our power to do, it lies in our power not to do. -Aristotle

Moretti: He wants "it" removed? Do you know what "it" is?
Jason: No. We just bought an hour, though, to figure it out.

David: [closing quote, voiceover] "There's no tragedy in life like the death of a child. Things never get back to the way they were." - President Dwight Eisenhower.

Haley: Hi, honey. I saved you a seat.

Frank: Beauty can cover a multitude of sins. But underneath, we all look the same.

Emily: Where am I? This isn't a hospital. I've been in enough hospitals. I know how they sound, how they smell. So where the hell am I?

Aaron: [closing, voiceover] Alan Lightman said, "The tragedy of this world is that no one is happy, whether stuck in a time of pain... or joy."

Jennifer: Since 1947 when a group of atomic scientists created the clock, the minute hand's been reset many times.
Dr. Spencer Reid: For the last five years, it's been consistently ticking down. It was last set at two and a half minutes to midnight.
Emily: And the closest it ever was was two minutes in 1953 when the U.S. and Russia tested the first H-bomb.
Jennifer: We could be looking at a doomsday cult.
Captain: So he's like one of these survivalists who lives in the woods and wears tinfoil hats.
Luke: Actually, the idea of preparing for the end is moving from the fringes of society into mainstream culture.
Matt: Yeah, they call themselves preppers. They're trying to retain a certain standard of living for themselves and others while riding out the Apocalpyse, be it nuclear or civil unrest.
David: The wealthy are jumping on board. They're hoarding cryptocurrency and buying custom survival shelters.
Matt: And the super rich are taking it to another level. They're buying private islands, land in New Zealand, their private jets are always gassed up ready to whisk them away at a moment's notice.
Emily: So, the victims are part of the unsub's prep to repopulate a new civilization in a post-apocalyptic world.
Dr. Tara Lewis: And the clock starting to tick steadily down five years ago was the trigger.
Matt: And with it being so close to midnight and us breathing down his neck, he may decide that it's time to cut all ties with the outside world.
Emily: We need to find him before that happens.

Jason: [opening quote, voiceover] "Our life is made by the death of others." - Leonardo da Vinci.

Luke: This glass is three-quarters of an inch thick, and that's sturdy. If you wanted to drown someone in an aquarium, that would do the trick.
Jennifer: Yeah, they said there was a bleach solution in the water, so he was probably cleaning it and his earbuds were in.
Luke: Make it easy to sneak up on Bryan. Unsub wouldn't have had to work too hard. Bryan was startled. He took in water and bleach, and he was asphyxiated before he knew what was happening.

Aaron: [opening quote, voiceover] Amos Bronson Alcott said "Who speaks to the instincts speaks to the deepest in mankind, and finds the readiest response."

Penelope: I have been drilling into the social media footprint of both of our adolescent survivors.
David: Any connection between Amanda and Matt?
Penelope: Yeah. Stay with me while I go around here for a second. So, basically, both of their Facebook pages are just an outpouring of love and support from their peers. And it's touching, really, and it's very reassuring for the hope of our species.
Emily: What did you mean "basically"?
Penelope: In between all the wonderfulness, there's a tiny tributary of nasty comments from some of their peers, saying that Matt and Amanda got what they deserved.
David: Well, they're kids. Kids can be cruel and thoughtless.
Penelope: Right, but we all know that cruelty is sometimes inspired by previous action, which made me wonder what Matt and Amanda might have done to provoke some of their peers to saying some of these things on their Facebooks. So I looked into their school records, and both Matt and Amanda have complaints against them for "harassing behavior".
Emily: They're bullies.
David: Were they disciplined?
Penelope: No. To paraphrase the violent Femmes song, nothing went down on their permanent record.
Dr. Spencer Reid: So the victims were also victimizers.
Emily: If the unsub was bullied himself as a teenager, that could be the original narcissistic wound that's fueling his present-day rage. Turning his surrogate victimizers into victims is the point for our unsub.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Bullying leaves lasting scars. Our unsub could be a teacher or staff member at the school who sees himself as an avenger of students who are current victims of bullying. Someone who punishes the bullies when no one else does.
Emily: From the unsub's point of view, the bullies themselves are responsible for the violence he's perpetrating against their families.

Jennifer: Hey! Is Ned here yet?
Matt: Like in Lazy Ned? The anti-Penelope?

David: I gotta ask you,: are two bottles of bourbon a normal Monday night?

David: First sin of profiling: trying to fit the evidence to match a theory.

David: [voiceover, closing] The internet is the first thing that humanity has built that humanity doesn't understand, the largest experiment in anarchy that we have ever had. - Eric Schmidt

Thomas: Any plans for the big day? Come on. You should get out and do something. Never know how many of these you got left.
David: What's her name?
Thomas: I used to hate birthdays when I was a kid. That's why I like celebrating yours.
David: Her name.
[Yates throws a paper]

Dr. Spencer Reid: The pattern in the branding mark has design characteristics similar to family crests from the late middle ages. I found this encyclopedia of heraldry and look.
Aaron: It's the seal of William Stoughton, a magistrate.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Check when and where he's a magistrate.
David: Salem, Massachusetts, 1692.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Stoughton was the lead prosecutor in the Salem witch trials.
Aaron: So this UnSub believes he's hunting witches.

Billie: It's fortunate that you're here, Agents. I was just telling Detective Russ about our lawsuit against the FBI.
Emily: Don't waste our time with threats. We have work to do.
Billie: As a courtesy, I wanted to let you know that I just filed a motion to drop all charges against my client. I'm petitioning for his unconditional release.
David: On what grounds?
Billie: It's clear from the current murder that Ferell is actually innocent. He was set up by the real killer ten years ago, and that guy's killing again.
Emily: The murders stopped as soon as Ferell was locked up, and they've started again now that he's on home release.
Billie: Supervised home release. And it's further proof that the killer is setting my client up. He only kills when he can blame it on Ferell.
Detective: They caught him red-handed with one of the victims.
Billie: All that proves is that my client was under the influence of the real killer. He was clearly suffering from mental illness at the time.
David: I'll say. He had human recipies, said he ate the victims, and had a satanic shrine.
Billie: He was manipulated by the real killer to say those things. There was never any actual evidence tying him to these murders.
Emily: Okay, well, we're confident that the facts speak for themselves. Now, if you'll excuse us.

[Answering his cellphone]
Derek: Yeah, Morgan.
Penelope: Isn't this spooky?
Derek: Isn't what spooky?
Penelope: That right now you were thinking about me, and out of the blue your phone rings? And it's me. Huh? How's that for a spiritual connection?
Derek: Umm... Do I know you?
Penelope: Why do you hurt me?
[Morgan laughs]

Penelope: [Picks up her phone] BAU, tech centre, where you should definitely pay attention to the girl begin the curtain

Derek: They don't start with entire families. There are more victims, we just haven't them found yet

Penelope: Morgan?
Derek: Yeah, Baby
Penelope: You sound stressed
Derek: Do I?
Penelope: Where are you?
Penelope: Not where I want to be right now

Derek: A serial killer asking for help. Well, that's a new one on me.

Matt: Prentiss! Come on! You said we need a great plan
Emily: And we have one. It started 20 years ago when David Rossi and Jason Gideon submitted their first requisition for a private jet. There are things none of you know about that jet

Dr. Spencer Reid: Were there any other victims?
Penelope: Eh... actually yes, but not of the human variety. In the last month six puppies have been suffocated and beaten - and thank God there are no photos, because I draw the line at dead dogs

Derek: His name is Ezra Warren. He's 23 years old, works as a waiter in D.C. He's got a clean record.
David: So, except for being covered in blood at the scene of a mass murder, just your average Joe.

Luke: Assuming the women are still alive, the unsub would need a place to hold them. A home, warehouse, abandoned building.
Dr. Spencer Reid: He could be keeping them in multiple locations, in which case he most likely has a large truck or van.
Jennifer: He appears to be a night owl. All of the abductions took place around midnight.
Matt: Could do shift work. Maybe that's the time he gets off from his job.
Emily: Matt, Dave, go check out the latest crime scene. Tara, Luke, talk to Allie's co-workers at the restaurant. Captain Skinner from the State Police is on his way in. We will work the case from here.

[as he's introduced to the team]
John: [to Gideon] You look like a college professor.
John: [to Reid] And you look like his student.

Alex: That means she was probably a tourist though.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Last year Las Vegas documented 39,727,022 visitors.

Jennifer: [closing quote] "Just because everything is different, doesn't mean anything has changed" - Irene Peter

David: [voiceover] William Shakespeare wrote: When a father gives to his son, both laugh; when a son gives to his father, both cry.

Dr. Spencer Reid: [opening quotation] "The malicious have a dark happiness." - Victor Hugo.

Keri: Will you help me?
Jennifer: I am presenting this case to the team this morning. I'll let you know what they decide
Keri: [Starts writing] Lou Evans, Ed Derzmond and Ryan Scott
Jennifer: Excuse me?
Keri: Those are the people who you will be calling when you find me dead

Dr. Spencer Reid: Basically the assumed suspect will hunt close to where they live but far enough to remain anonymous. Each one of these data points represents the bank and the area where the lines intersect is the best estimate of the unsub home
Jennifer: To how many people does that narrow it down to?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Ahh... a couple of hundred thousand!
Jennifer: Oh...

Emily: I wanted to thank you for all of your help.
Matt: Well, it was good to be of help. Ever since the IRT went down, I've been sitting on my hands waiting for a new assignment.
Emily: We should sit down tomorrow. We can talk about that.
Matt: I'd like that.

Dr. Spencer Reid: These pieces of twine are all different length
Derek: And you're just figuring that out?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I think it's by design! Starting with the first victim, the lengths are 25, 15, 12 and 19 inches
Derek: Yeah, so what?
Dr. Spencer Reid: If you convert inches to centimeters, you'll have a 64, 38, 31 and 48, the exact ages of all four victims! I think I know what this is about!

[Before leaving with Alex, Erin has brief eye contact with David]
Erin: So I'll see everyone on the jet tomorrow
[turns and walks away]
Jennifer: Could you be any more obvious?
David: I think I preferred you before you were a profiler.

Detective: What the hell was that?
Aaron: Just trying to establish some trust.
Detective: Uh-huh. You gonna ask the other one, too?
Emily: No.
Detective: And, what, you're not going in there?
Aaron: Not yet.
Detective: Hmm. Really? You know, we don't have a whole lot of time here.
Aaron: They've been slammed with the same questions for the last two and a half days. We go in there with that strategy, we'll get nowhere.
Detective: I don't get it.
Derek: If we go in there now, they have all the power.
Detective: So, what, we just, uh, wait?
Aaron: For a while.

Emily: So four young women go missing, late at night, in the same geographical area.
Dr. Spencer Reid: There's been no ATM, no cell phone, credit card activity.
Matt: And no ransom demands. These weren't kidnappings.
Luke: Bodies have never been found. The unsub could be holding them.
Emily: Or he's good at permanent concealment.

Emily: Who reported Kirkwood missing?
Matt: Uh, his wife. 48 hours ago, after he didn't come home from a run.
Emily: He must be holding his victims somewhere he feels protected. So maybe a good part of that 48 hours is the travel time to and from his secure location.
Matt: You are probably right, but as far as a geoprofile goes, it's gonna be hard to reconcile the two axioms of serial killer behavior.
Jennifer: Never commit a crime close to home and never travel farther than necessary to dispose of your victims.
Matt: Exactly. And this guy's crossed state lines, which means he's willing to go the extra mile, which complicates the math.

Derek: [voiceover] Beware, so long as you live, of judging men by their outward appearance. -Jean De La Fontaine

Billy: [Ellie in short hair comes] You see, Ellie? Bicycles means kids, and kids mean parents who are easy to control. So, go get the boy. Bring him to the parents' room.
Ellie: What are you gonna do?
Billy: I have a widow to comfort. Go.

Aaron: [opening quotation, voiceover] Tennessee Williams said "We all live in a house on fire. No fire department to call, no way out."

Elizabeth: All I was trying to say is, this is all gonna blow over once they catch the right guy
Jesse: Yes. It's just... sometimes... it's hard to tell who the right guy is!

Krystall: [phone pings] It's Portia
David: So how is my soon-to-be stepdaughter been doing?
Krystall: She likes to share quotes with me. Here's todays:
Krystall: [opening quote] Stephen King wrote: "The most important things are the hardest to say"

Penelope: Oh, Alvez, have you heard of multitasking? It's all the rage, I am really good at it, and I'm doing it right now

Derek: My name's Derek Morgan. I'm with the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit. What'd you do?
Syd: [indicating his sprained wrist] Oh, I had this before Friday night.
Derek: That's not what I asked you.
Syd: But I know what you're thinking.
Derek: I hightly doubt that.

Alex: He removed the white blood cells. Plasma.
David: Why would he take the plasma?
Aaron: It would make it thicker. Easier to use as a paint.
Derek: What type of equipment would it take to do that?
Alex: You can easily buy a centrifuge online these days for couple hundred bucks.
Aaron: What other reasons would he have for separating the plasma from the blood?
Dr. Spencer Reid: It's a habit.
Aaron: Reid.
Jennifer: Spence.
Aaron: I didn't expect you back this soon. You sure you're ready?
Dr. Spencer Reid: No, but I think I figured something out.

Emily: [walking in hall on JJ's left] So, you finished the course?
Jennifer: [some pride in her voice] Mmmhmmm. And completed my case rotation.
Emily: Hotch says he's never seen a rookie profiler analyze and write up cases as well as you.
Jennifer: He said that?
Emily: [laughing somewhat as she begins to talk] Yeah, well, after all the cases you presented over the years, I'm not surprised.
Jennifer: Hmm. Hey, where have you been?
[camera quickly pans to Spencer and Emily and JJ catch up]
Jennifer: I wanted to do brunch this weekend.
Dr. Spencer Reid: [feigns busyness] I had to deal with some stuff with my mom; have you seen Garcia?
[walks ahead and they stop]
Jennifer: [question in her voice] Uh, she's with Rossi...
[gestures to Reid]
Jennifer: he hates me.
Emily: [scoffs sympathetically] Mm, he was just busy.
[shrugs]
Emily: Let it go.

M.E. Cranston: Good to see you again, Dr. Reid.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Nice to see you.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Again?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Yeah, we did a case here four years ago.
M.E. Cranston: Right, the tornado guy. That was one for the books.

Penelope: I looked into the disappearance of Chrissy Miller. I found something significant. That same week that Chrissy disappeared, another teen, Kylie Pritchard, also went missing.
Jennifer: Eighteen and pregnant. Like Chrissy, the police checked off the "troubled runaway" box.
Penelope: Yeah. And this will also whet your mystery whistle. Days after Kylie and Chrissy went missing, Dr. Roberta Childs vanished.
Emily: So if this is the same unsub, he probably started with high-risk victims like runaways, then graduated to high-profile ones.
Jennifer: What if Joanna Miller was right and her sister's disappearance is connected to the abduction of the professional women from five years ago?
Emily: Garcia, expand your search for...
Penelope: Missing women in Virginia and the metro D.C. area. I can read your voices and your minds.

Derek: Garcia, all these people drink blood?
Penelope: Au contraire. They mostly just dress up like Prentiss did in high school and they make believe. It's all kinds of delicious
Dr. Spencer Reid: It's not the same thing at all. As a matter of fact, I... I... we should refer to this unsub as vampirist, not a vampire. And they would be attracted to the subculture merely for it's professed worship of blood

Penelope: Firefighter responded to a housefire in the Green Hills neighborhood and were able to put out the fire before it destroyed the everything, but they discovered the body of Monica Feinstein with a complete facelift and I'm not talking about the kind that you need a weekend and a bottle of aspirin get over, I'm talking cheek-to-cheek, neck-to-noggin, her whole face was lifted, like removed from her...

Dr. Tara Lewis: [getting ready to head home] Ready?
David: Avanti.
Jennifer: You hear that?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Hear what?
David: Cut the engine.
[she does so; they hear a rumble of thunder; raindrops start to patter the windshield, which then turns into a torrential downpour]
Dr. Tara Lewis: Hmm. Well, I'll be damned.

Diane: I was hoping you'd figure out my riddle. I-I mean, I knew you would. The fun was just how fast you'd do it. All this and brains, too.
Dr. Spencer Reid: It took me a long time. To be honest, I was distracted by your thesis.
Diane: You read my thesis?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I did. You know, I think your writing could put you on the same plane as Jonas Salk. I've already sent it to the NIH.
Diane: Flattery is not gonna get you out of this. I know what's waiting for me outsides.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I've arranged for your freedom.
Diane: The federal government doesn't make deals with people like me.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Not true. Nazi scientists were recruited for the Manhattan Project. Mafia bosses are regularly put into witness protection. If what you have is valuable enough, the federal government will work with you. And what you have is very valuable.
Diane: And what do I have, Doctor?
Dr. Spencer Reid: You have a brain that doesn't play by normal societal rules. And I know that all your life the people you care about the most keep leaving. There's a part of you that thinks it's because of that brain. Well, I'm here because I'm not going to leave you. I'm here because... I just hope that I get the chance.
Diane: Chance at what?
Dr. Spencer Reid: To be with you. Me for her. That was the deal, right?
Diane: You're choosing me over her?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Diane, how could it be anyone else?
Diane: Prove it.
Dr. Spencer Reid: All right. How?
Diane: Say it again. This time say it to her face.
[takes blindfold off]
Dr. Spencer Reid: I don't love you. Sorry.
Dr. Maeve Donovan: I understand.

Matt: [closing quote] "The only thing that makes a battle psychological tolerable is the brotherhood amongst soldiers" - Sebastian Junger

David: [opening quotation] "Nothing happens until something moves." - Albert Einstein.

Lieutenant: Looks like Josh has doubled back a few times. But the dogs can't find him.
David: Is he familiar with these woods?
Lieutenant: All first years come here for a mission. Josh tried to run away back then but didn't get far. None of them do.
Emily: But after three more years of training...
Lieutenant: He didn't weigh himself down with supplies. Smart. We taught him well.

Penelope: And yes, you heard that correctly. No need to adjust your headsets

Dr. Spencer Reid: The spam had to be converted from matrix code to binary code, then switched to base eight before being translated back into letters. I can go into more detail if you want.
Aaron: No. How smart would a person have to be to write code like that?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Beyond smart. Profoundly gifted. An IQ of at least 160.
Emily: That changes the profile, then.
Dr. Spencer Reid: The UnSub could still hold a menial or low-level job. Many believe that beyond an IQ of 120, success is determined by other factors.

Jennifer: We got him. He's dead. And we saved Phoebe and Gina, too. You did it.
[finds Tara snapping repeatedly at a hair tie around her wrist]
Jennifer: [holds Tara's wrist] It's over.
Tara: I want to see his body.

Emily: Do a search of the metro D.C. area for men who fall into both the survivalist and prepper camps.
Penelope: Okay. Preppers love their firewalls, but it's no match for moi. 110 names.
Luke: And what about ones that live in Virginia?
Penelope: Seventy. Next player.
Emily: Do any of them own a black van?
Penelope: Negative.
Matt: Well, technical people usually view risk mathematically. Garcia, filter the list for accountants, engineers, math teachers, and... computer techs.
Penelope: Okay, I'm filtering this through my digital colander. Nicely done. Twenty names.

[first lines]
Jonny: No one sees *True Night*, what's really there in the dark. It's not that they can't see, they simply don't. They feel an elemental force that scares them into deepest reaches of their minds. But they refuse to see the actual source. Something watching them just out of their reach. Something cold and frightening. Something inhuman.

[repeated line]
Dr. Stan Howard: Is it worse than you thought?

Penelope: Brittany Anderson filed a report after she woke up outside she was abducted from. And Vanessa Campbell was just reported missing
Dr. Spencer Reid: Wait, those were victims 2 and 5, weren't they?
Penelope: Yes. He's going back and attacking survivors a second time

Dr. Spencer Reid: What about the, uhm, type of work, your, uhm, employers do? We're sure under the assumption that this escort is, uhm, killing men who, ehm, make her perform a specific sexual act
Lauren: What do you have in mind, sweetie?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I don't even... I don't know

Jennifer: So, we know who and why but not where

Aaron: Where is she?
John: Closer than you think, but she's not doing well. She looks a bit pale. Remember the last time you got a call like this? Remember? George Foyet, right? You were too late.

Dr. Spencer Reid: [Reid is being cleaned by a bio hazard team] I'm about to get naked so they can scrub me down. You sure that's something you wanna see?

Penelope: Okay, no that's... I'm supposed to say that this is a great opportunity, which it is. I don't know the way this place works without you. You're like the glue around here. Who's gonna make us feel safe?
Jennifer: There's plenty of big, strong men around.
Penelope: See that, right there? Your total ignorance of how awesome you are is one of the 5,000 things I love about you.

Penelope: [Hotch calls her, Garcia sings] Give me stuff to do!

Aaron: Strauss wanted you to fill this out.
Jennifer: Exit interview. A-are you kidding me?
Aaron: She's big on procedure. Just be honest. I was hoping I could do something about this. And I'm sorry I couldn't.
Jennifer: I know.
[looking out at the rest of the team in the bullpen]
Jennifer: How am I supposed to tell them I'm leaving when I don't want to go?
Aaron: The brass is really, really good at taking power away. It makes them feel like they're in charge.
Jennifer: That sounds like a profile.
Aaron: You're gonna be much better off than any of us, you know that? I'll miss you.

William: [Holding his artificial leg] They say you get used to it. Right now, it just hurts like hell

Penelope: Sir, does this guy stuff actually work on real, breathing girls?
Aaron: Why are you asking me?
Penelope: I abhor the whole "chicks dig jerks" thing.
Aaron: Well, fortunately, Garcia, you're one of the exceptions.
Penelope: Well, huh! Be still my bespeckled heart! So are you, sir.
Aaron: Thanks.

Jennifer: "The greater the power, the more dangerous the abuse." - Edmund Burke

Aaron: [Arrives at the crime scene] What happened here?
Lt. Brantley: Took him down by himself
Derek: [Walks further] Hotch! Brantley says you took him down solo!
Aaron: He wasn't far behind me
Derek: You know you should have waited for backup
Aaron: Would you have?

Derek: I hate not having a plan. We're looking for a needle in a haystack.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Actually, it's more like we're looking for a needle in a pile of needles.
Derek: What?
Dr. Spencer Reid: A needle would stand out in a haystack.

Emily: I just talked to Hotch. They think he used a revolver
Derek: Who the hell uses a revolver?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Someone who doesn't want to leave shell casings behind as evidence.

Aaron: I'm sorry I have to work, Jack. This is the part of my job that stinks.
Jack: It's okay, Dad. If someone's in trouble, you should help them.

David: A psychopath born in that conflict! That's not a good mix

Derek: [voiceover] poet Antonio Porchia wrote, "Man, when he does not grieve, hardly exists."

Dr. Spencer Reid: [opening quotation, voiceover] Wayne Dyer once said "How people treat you is their karma. How you react is yours."

Aaron: So, what's your plan?
Cece: Plan? Try him and fry him!

Aaron: Go ahead, Garcia
Penelope: I have absolutely nothing on my passport search. I have been trying to pinpoint travelers who were in America, the UK, and Russia at the time of the murders. I have zero matches
Emily: Hey, we should also look at diplomats
Penelope: Oh my God! Oh my God, It's you, hi!
Emily: Hey, you
Penelope: Oh my God! You're here! You're not here here, but you're in the country here! I miss you. How are you?
Aaron: Garcia!
Penelope: Oh! Yes, sorry!

Derek: Hotch would never have taken this case. And I say "case" in the loosest sense.
David: Profile the facts as they are without bias. Isn't that what we do?
Derek: What facts, Rossi? Look at us. We don't have a single file.
David: Okay, let me help you out. Jump right in anytime. Fact one - there are no files, so it seems no case.
Emily: But what if there is?
Dr. Spencer Reid: One fire, fourteen deaths, five suicides.
Jennifer: All the suicides are connected to the original fire.
Emily: And all exactly two weeks apart.
David: Come on, Derek, you can't tell me that doesn't feel a lot like a pattern.
Emily: And a timeline.
David: Right?
Derek: A lot of people lost their kids in that fire. That's a whole world of grief, and for a few... suicide's their only way out.
David: Or someone decided it was.
Derek: And made it look this way?
David: What if they have?
Derek: Then we're looking for one very smart unsub.

Derek: Hey Sweetness, what do you've got?
Penelope: Tidbits as sweet as you, love shack!

Dr. Tara Lewis: It also says here she once was the owner of a company called Fau-Type which produced and distributed adult entertainment
Matt: [reading the file] If by "adult entertainment" you're talking about fetishes like: vorarephilia and bestiality...
David: Ok, I get it, she has exotic tastes

Dr. Spencer Reid: [closing quote] "What greater thing is there for human souls than to they feel that they are joined for life, to be with each other in silent, with unspeakable memories?" - George Eliot

Aaron: The shooter established what we call a signature. Something he did during the murders that wasn't actually necessary. Not part of his m.o., but identical in every attack.

Benjamin: And God will wipe the tears from their eyes, and there will be no more death, nor sorrow nor crying. And there will be no more pain. For all of the former things have passed away.
Emily: What do we do?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Nothing.
Emily: We have to do something. These people just took poison.
Dr. Spencer Reid: No, Cyrus just told them they did. I think he's bluffing.
Emily: Why do you think that?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Just after he told them about the poison, he waited for them to start to react. Then he nodded to Cole, and he started writing. Look. They're scanning the audience for reactions.
Emily: They're writing down the names of the people who are crying.
Dr. Spencer Reid: It's a loyalty list.
Emily: So he knows who will follow him to the end.

Penelope: Live from Quantico, VA, it is divine Miss Penelope. Los Angeles, you're our first and favorite caller. Talk to me.
Derek: Okay, woman, you do know you're crazy, right?
Penelope: But like you always say, "Don't hate the playa, hate the game."
Derek: Okay, playa, my bad.

Penelope: Do you know how many Ashleys are in downtown Boston? Too many Ashelys! That many Ashleys. And the only thing to track her down is that she has fancies for bunnies.
[Ugh]
Penelope: . So I am pulling the receipts from local pet shop, nothing crosses. And anyway, even if she likes bunnies, it doesn't mean that she owns bunnies. I like unicorns, I don't have unicorns. I am looking for a trail of wild geese and bunnies.

Jennifer: Phone calls before an abduction/murder? It's a rare signature.
Derek: But if it is the same unsub, a dormancy period of fifteen years is highly unusual. Maybe we're looking at a copycat.
David: If I'm not mistaken, Frankie Clayvin was killed within two hours of his abduction.
Aaron: Which means we're wasting time. Let's go.

Penelope: Just confirmed there was a ten-minute segment on the unsolved Frankie Clayvin murder on a low-rated cable show 12 years ago.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Even with low ratings, probably a half a million people saw it.
Penelope: 376,000; it's not often I get to correct another genius.

Emily: Wheels up in 10

Elias: [opening quote] The Latin phrase 'Memento mori' translates to 'remember that you must die', Romans slaves whispered it to the generals to prevent them from being consumed by hubris

Jacob: And who are you?
Jennifer: My friends call me J.J.
Jacob: [standing up] Well, hel...
Aaron: Sit down.
[Dawes doesn't move]
Aaron: Sit down.
Jacob: [sitting down] Hello, J.J.
Jennifer: You're not my friend. You can call me Jennifer.

Jennifer: So we need to start searching these tunnels.
Dr. Spencer Reid: That's the tricky part. There are 413 miles of them.

Dr. Spencer Reid: Lab results on the mud
David: And?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Sample contains large amounts of proteases
David: And?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Proteolytic enzymes. They break down the peptide bonds between amino acids found in complex proteins. It's commonly found in meat tenderizers

David: Did your fiancée say anything that sounded out of the ordinary?
Michael: No. She sounded like herself, considering the circumstances.
Dr. Spencer Reid: You say that her lexical features are consistent with her vernacular?
Michael: Huh?
David: Are the words hers?

Robert: The guy that took my wife... he took the other missing women, didn't he? He's a serial killer, that's why you're here?
Aaron: No, we're here to help you find your wife.
Robert: You do believe she's alive?
Aaron: Unless I have evidence to the contrary, I very much consider her to be alive.

Emily: [to Tom and Andrea Benton] Because the priest said so! Can't you think for yourself?

David: Ecstasy isn't exactly an appetizer.

Emily: [opening quotation, voiceover] Leonardo da Vinci said "He who does not punish evil commands it to be done."

Jennifer: [closing, voiceover] "Body and soul cannot be separated for purposes of treatment, for they are one and indivisible. Sick minds must be healed as well as sick bodies." - Dr. Jeff Miller.

Emily: [voiceover] Memory is a complicated thing, a relative to truth, but not its twin -Barbara Kingsolver

Aaron: What can I do for you?
Emily: Well, I guess I was hoping you could tell me where to put my stuff
Aaron: Sorry?
Emily: I'm supposed to start here today, at the BAU
Aaron: There's been a mistake
Emily: I don't think so, sir
Aaron: Yeah, definitely a mistake
Jennifer: [Knocks on the door] Excuse me, we will getting started
Aaron: Thank you, I'll be right there. I did not approve this transfer, agent Prentiss. I am sorry for the confusion, but you have been misinformed. Excuse me, very good to see you again

Emily: Reid? A little good news. Backup is here.
Matt: Hey, Spencer.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Hey. Thank you for coming.
Clara: Yeah, of course. Jack and me are finishing up a case in Costa Rica, so we hopped on a commercial plane to get here.
Matt: We're trying to stop your transfer to El Diablo.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Do you think it's possible?
Clara: Yes. Lab reports on the vials came back. Some of what was in there hasn't been approved by the FDA, but there aren't any illegal substances.

Sarah: [Gideon rushes in] My last supper. Like some? Look, it came with a toy

Phillip: Mary, how can I help you?
Mary: You have to take it out.
Phillip: No, no. No, you'll die.
Mary: Phillip... It's time.
[Phillip takes the knife out]
Mary: Thank you. Thank you. Oh, Phillip...
Phillip: Mary... No. No!

Shane: When I win, what do I get?
Penelope: When you log on to the DOJ website, there'll be a picture of me and Super Special Agent Derek Morgan with shoes on our heads.
[Shane grins and disappears]
Penelope: He just left the table.
Derek: Did he take the bait?
Penelope: I don't know.
Derek: What's the shoe on the head mean?
Penelope: Uh, it's an Internet thing.

David: This isn't even a BAU case
Jennifer: Maybe not yet, but I can make anything a BAU case, if I want to. It's about paperwork and I know the paperwork

Emily: So, I wanted you to be the first to know that, uh, my name is on a short list of candidates being considered to fill the Director's chair.
Jennifer: Emily, that's incredible. Oh, my... god. You're gonna be the next Director of the FBI.
Emily: That still remains a definite "maybe". But I do know that I want the job. But I would feel much better if my first directive as Director was to appoint you Unit Chief of the BAU.
Jennifer: And I... I told you before, that really does mean a lot.
Emily: Enough to turn down being Special Agent in Charge of the New Orleans field office?
Jennifer: Um... I'm not sure.
Emily: Now I feel like I'm-I'm pressuring you into staying, and that's not what I...
Jennifer: Oh, no, no, no, see, and I'm feeling like if I do go to New Orleans, you might not decide to make history as the first female head of the FBI.
Emily: Oh, no, it's... don't worry. If given the chance, I'm making history.

Penelope: So, I have a confession to make.
Derek: Mm.
Penelope: You are not the first guy to call me "baby girl."
Derek: Get outta here.
Penelope: It's true.
Derek: It better not be that guy.
Penelope: Oh. No. Actually, it was a different guy.
Derek: Okay, I'll bite. How did this pretender to the throne end up stealing my fire?
Penelope: I'm going to tell you, but first, I have to explain an explicit, sexually inappropriate detail what a flarpy blunderguff is. Okay, so, you need like an oil-based paint and some charcoal and some sort of food that you love. I mean love, because you are gonna be with it...

Jason: What's going on?
Dr. Spencer Reid: DC may have a serial killer and I just let him get away!

Dr. Spencer Reid: Do you think you'd be able to describe the person you bought the ecstasy from?
Raver: Don't have to, he's right over there.
[points to a body bag]

Marlene: So when I was feeling better, I-I went to my mother's to pick him up, and... that's when they told me he wasn't there.
Jennifer: You didn't call ahead before you dropped him off?
Marlene: Yeah. She didn't answer.
Jennifer: She doesn't have an answering machine?
Marlene: Yeah, she does, but there wasn't time for that.
Jennifer: Please help me understand, Mrs. Smith. It takes ten seconds to leave a message. Look, these... these bad days that you have, I understand. There... there must be times when...
Marlene: [sobbing, showing JJ the scars on her wrists] Look. Bobby saw me do this before. Twice. I had to get him out of the house! Don't you understand?

Derek: Is that wise?
Aaron: No, but it is an order!

Penelope: Please pick up, please pick up, please pick up!
Derek: Yeah, it's Morgan. Hello...? Garcia, can you hear me?
Penelope: We saw the explosion on TV!
Derek: Yeah, I know. We lost a SWAT agent
Penelope: Oh God!
Derek: Don't worry; don't think you're gonna get rid of me that easy
Penelope: Do you need anything?
Derek: I'd know who to call, thanks Baby Girl!

Derek: [closing quotation, voiceover] "Dwell in peace in the home of your own being, and the messenger of death will not be able to touch you." - Guru Nanak.

Chester: Is that true - I never had a chance?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I don't know - maybe.

David: "The tragedy of life is not death, but what we let die inside of us while we live." - Norman Cousins.

Aaron: [voiceover] Thomas Hardy wrote: "And yet to every bad there is a worse"

Dr. Tara Lewis: There's been a strange spike in questionable opiate overdose deaths here in Los Angeles, and I think it's worth us taking a look.
Emily: We are right now. What do you see?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, of the most recent cluster of ODs, there are seven cases that look suspicious. All of them died within 24 hours of completing rehab.
David: Well, there are a lot of explanations besides homicide, though.
Luke: Yeah, most addicts go back to their original dose from before they kicked, and their bodies can't tolerate it. They go into shock.
Matt: Or their heroin could be laced with fentanyl, which is fifty to a hundred times more potent. They only use a little, and that's all it takes to kill them.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Except we're not talking about heroin users here.
Luke: Arm tied off, fresh needle marks, complete system shutdown. They look like heroin overdoses to me.
Dr. Tara Lewis: I'm talking about the reason they went to rehab in the first place. They all checked in for different problems; cocaine, methamphetamine, alcohol. But after treatment, they all died of a heroin overdose. At least that's the pattern that was presented to me.
David: That is odd. Most addicts relapse on their original drug of choice.
Emily: Tara, who presented this case to you?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Uh... a Dr. Daryl Wright. He's my... he's my ex-husband.
Penelope: He's your what what what?

Jennifer: Do you know the boyfriends whereabouts?
Penelope: He's in Alaska, so his alibi is a solid as a pre-globally warmed glacier!

Emily: Matt, what do we got?
Matt: City disposal crews discovered the body about 90 minutes ago, called it in. Alexandria police, they notified us, and they held the scene. The victim's been identified as Dennis Kirkwood, 47 years old. He ran a financial management company called Turnblade Capital.
Emily: [seeing JJ look around] JJ, you okay?
Jennifer: Yeah. Yeah, it's just odd. I have this overwhelming sense of deja vu.
Matt: What, the scene look familiar to you?
Jennifer: Look, I have been to way too many scenes like this before, right, so I don't know what it is exactly.

Derek: Garcia has got something
Penelope: Don't worry, it's not contagious

Jennifer: [opening quote] "Deep vengeance is the daughter of deep silence." - Vittorio Alfieri

Penelope: I am smart, but the internet is large...

Emily: Our unknown subject, AKA Eddie, is described as being a male Caucasian between the ages of 18 and 25, standing between 5'10" and 6'2" in height with dark blond hair.
Emily: This unsub is what we call a grief-induced killer. In his heartbreak, he is lashing out at the men that he thinks are responsible for covering up what he believes to be the murder three years ago of a Robin Rhodes.
Luke: This after Baltimore police concluded that Robin's death was an accident. And he may also have genuine reason to feel that evidence was overlooked or, as seems more likely, he tends toward a paranoid personality.
Emily: Unfortunately, the sketch and description we have do not match any known associates, friends, or family of Ms. Rhodes. And yet the key to this case will lie in re-examining the circumstances of Robin Rhodes' disappearance and death.
Luke: Given his age range, he seems too young to be this good. It's taken him three years since Robin's death to train himself to take his revenge fantasy and turn it into a cold-blooded reality.

Everett: [Opening Quote] They talk of my drinking but never my thirst. Scottish Proverb

David: You're an excellent dad, Aaron. Don't you ever forget it.

David: No tread marks anywhere. The unsub probably parked his car along the main road and walked in.
Jennifer: Family have dogs?
David: No. No security system, either.
Jennifer: Well, there's nothing around back. The garage and the storage were unlocked.
David: And I bet the Brewers probably never locked their front door.
Jennifer: You know, it's not so unusual. I grew up in a place like this and that's just how it was. People trusted one another.
David: Trust is a good thing. So are deadbolts and a rottweiler.

Georgia: Every time I think it can't get anything worse, it does!

Detective: Aren't you guys a little overqualified for this case? I mean, this guy's no serial killer.
Dr. Spencer Reid: We construct behavioral profiles for a variety of investigative scenarios. That includes stalking.
Derek: We've seen this kind of thing before, and it can get ugly real fast.

Derek: So, why the woods, JJ?
Jennifer: Hmmm?
Derek: Your fear, you said it was of the woods.
Jennifer: Err, I used to be a camp counselor when I was a teenager, in the woods up around Vermont. I had the night shift, you know, tuck the girls in, turn off the lights, you know, the typical drill. Everything seemed fine. The kids were asleep, you know, nothing seemed out of the ordinary. Until... I noticed that there was some blood, on the hallway floor. So I followed the blood trail down the hall to the camp director's cabin, walked up to his bed, and... he was just lying there, under his covers, dead. Someone stabbed him. I ran out of there so fast, out the door, down the hall. I can just remember it being really dark. Once I got to the door, there was another counselor; I guess she heard me scream. They caught the caretaker on his way in to town. I guess he still had the knife on him. Anyway, I guess that's probably when I decided I didn't like the woods.
Derek: You're serious?
Jennifer: [sips coffee looking serious and pauses] No!
[shakes head]
Jennifer: I mean you fell for that?
[they laugh]
Jennifer: Come on! I don't know why I'm afraid of the woods! I am. Why is he still afraid of the dark?
Derek: Yeah, Reid why are you still afraid of the dark?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Because of the inherent absence of light!
[they laugh]

Derek: Hey baby girl, I need you to work that magic of yours
Penelope: Rub my lamp, release the Genie

Viper: [to Morgan] I outwit alpha males like you for fun and, sometimes, profit. How often do you have to rely on your badge to score, Baldy?

Aaron: Frank?
Frank: Agent Hotchner, we haven't had the pleasure of a formal meeting!
Aaron: Where is Tracy Bell?
Frank: Do you have something for me?
Aaron: No, I don't
Frank: Then you'll never see her again!

Penelope: This case is not for the faint of heart, so if I faint that's why!

Luke: Why did you pick Sheryl Timmons?
Floyd: I didn't. My friend did. I just picked her up and took her where he told me to.
Luke: Where was that?
Floyd: To my house, from the warehouse, over on Shelby Lane. I was supposed to rub her legs. That's all I did. I just rubbed 'em. I didn't want to, but I did.
Luke: What's your friend's name, Floyd?
Floyd: He didn't tell me his name. But I knew when I first met him, I needed to do what he wanted me to.

Dr. Spencer Reid: I'll map out the area and see if I can find any places the victims would have visited in the neighborhood.
Emily: Good. Maybe we can find a connection between them. I'll help you with that.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I can handle it.
Emily: I wasn't suggesting that you couldn't.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Isn't that what "I'll help you with it" means?

Emily: [walking with Rossi towards the conference room] I just can't believe we missed this case. How did it fall through the cracks?
David: Well, we had to save two of our own from an explosion, and exonerate a death row inmate. I'd say we cab grade ourselves on a curve here
Emily: The problem is: now we're under the microscope. They put Tara on a separate assignment
David: I did. Considering where her head's at with Rebecca, she needs a break. But it means we're shorthanded
Emily: Actually we're not...
David: We're not?
[looks over Emily's shoulder into the room]
David: NO!
Deputy: Agent Rossi, I have spoken to the rest of the team. Thank you for welcoming me
David: I didn't
Luke: You're all going to appreciate the irony of this, because Bailey here, his job depends on us doing ours

Jason: [voiceover] Joseph Conrad said "The belief in a supernatural source of evil is not necessary; men alone are quite capable of every wickedness."

Sheriff: Chopper found Jess' boat drifting in the middle of the lake, empty.
Matt: Was there a cinder block on board?
Sheriff: No, sir. Nothing. We're searching the perimeter of the lake now just in case he swam to the shore and made a run for it.
David: He didn't. Jess went back to a place where you'll never find him. It's over.

[first lines]
Jennifer: Five more minutes, please.
Detective William LaMontagne Jr.: There we go. Get your mama. Get her.
Jennifer: Denied.
Henry: Mommy, wake up. It's time to play.
Jennifer: Okay.
Detective William LaMontagne Jr.: I'm late for work and you promised.
Jennifer: Okay, buddy, go get your shoes. Go on.
Henry: Yay!
Jennifer: When will a day off ever actually be a day off?
Detective William LaMontagne Jr.: In about fourteen years. Come on.
Jennifer: Oh, uh. So, remember, we have the play date with Cameron. So, you're on your own for dinner.
Detective William LaMontagne Jr.: Uh, I'll manage somehow.
Jennifer: Uh-huh.
Detective William LaMontagne Jr.: I love you.
Jennifer: I love you, too.
Henry: I love you, three.
Detective William LaMontagne Jr.: I love you, four. Be a good boy for your mama, okay? Okay.

Penelope: No stone unturned, that's how I roll

Dr. Tara Lewis: You are the material witness to at least one homicide.
Kiara: No, I'm not a witness to any homicide. That's not what happened.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, tell us what happened.
Kiara: This guy, Eddie, he posted an ad on DTXBoard.com. $5,000 to help him play a prank on his dad's friend. It was, like, dress up sexy, say, like, my boyfriend left me and that I needed a ride back to my place.
Luke: You remember the address?
Kiara: Yeah. Like, 7634 Tyeman Road.
Luke: [turning to leave] All right. I'll get backup and check it out.
Dr. Tara Lewis: You can help us by giving me every communication you had with this Eddie, and then sitting down with a sketch artist.

Eddie: Sam. Sam.
Samantha: I am not leaving.
Eddie: Sam.
Samantha: No, I'm not leaving. I know what you're gonna do. And you promised you would never leave me again.
Eddie: They are gonna lock me up and throw away the key.
Samantha: I don't care. At least, I can... At least, I can visit you and I can write you letters.
Eddie: Why? All I ever do is lie and I... I screw up. That is all I ever do.
Samantha: No.
Eddie: There was no job in Mexico. There was nothing. I'm nothing.
Samantha: I won't leave you. I won't. So, please, don't leave me.

Ronald: She Maced me!
Emily: Yeah, she did!
Ronald: They said they'd clean 'em off the streets! They lied! What was I supposed to do? I had to do something!

Derek: [after phone call with the unsub and Trish] Guys, she wasn't blindfolded
Jason: No
Derek: If she's seen his face... as soon as he gets that money...
Jason: He'll kill her!

Jennifer: [looking at crime scene pictures] Hm, looks brutal!
David: Classic overkill
Dr. Spencer Reid: Stripped and wearing women's underwear that, I am assuming, weren't his
Penelope: Yeah, all of his clothes where found nearby, his skivvies included

Jennifer: Peter, I know he betrayed your trust. Just put the knife down and we can talk about this.
Peter: You don't know what it's like... the thoughts and the images that won't go away. This is my only option.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Peter, that's not true. Listen, I know exactly what it's like. Right now is the part where I'm supposed to lie to you, tell you that everything's gonna be okay and that we can somehow help you, but the fact of the matter is, Peter, I don't know if we can. There might not be any form of therapy that ever takes these urges away.
Jennifer: Spence, what are you doing?
Dr. Spencer Reid: But that doesn't mean you stop trying. Peter, no matter what happens, you have to keep trying. I know it's not what you want to hear, but at least it's the truth.
Peter: I appreciate your honesty.
[cuts his throat]

Patricia: In the end, I just write about violent crime. The real heroes are the people here beside me. Now, give a warm welcome to our next speaker, Dr. Spencer Reid of the BAU.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Thank you. Thanks. Patricia Cornwell, ladies and gentlemen. Ms. Cornwell will be signing books at the end of the session.
[microphone howling occurs]
Dr. Spencer Reid: Sorry. Uh. Hi. I am here today to talk to you about paraphilias and their relation to violent crime. Does anybody know what dendrophilia is? Yes, a fetish for trees.

Aaron: Ever since we had Jack, I always dread it when you bring me a case involving kids.
Jennifer: Why are you telling me this?
Aaron: Every case we work, every case we don't work comes across your desk.
Jennifer: Yeah.
Aaron: And most of the victims are women. And most of them are about your age. It's okay if you lose it every once in a while. It reminds people that we're human.

Luke: Tara, we caught a break. Rockville police just picked up Kiara Hale.
Dr. Tara Lewis: [surprised] She's alive?
Luke: Yeah, she is. And the federal Marshals are bringing her here right now.

Penelope: I got the 4-1-1 on our first victim, Melvin Lewis. Originally from The Malibu of the Midwest, Sheboygan, Wisconsin. Melvin moved to Milwaukee 12 years ago when wifey ran away with his best friend.
David: Ouch.
Penelope: Yeah. Luckily, they had no kids. No criminal record. Like super squeaky clean. Not even a parking ticket. He joined Facebook a year ago. He has a whopping six friends, all from work.
Derek: He drives a truck, right?
Penelope: Yeah. A milk truck, to be exact. But only did that for a month. Before, he worked for 10 years at an animal control center, but he was laid off due to budget cuts.
Dr. Spencer Reid: What exactly did he do, Garcia?
Penelope: He was a dogcatcher. But like a SWAT team of dogcatchers. He specialized in dangerous and trapped animals, including, but not limited to skunks, a raccoon, and one time a giant python.
Derek: All right, thanks, babe.
Dr. Spencer Reid: That could be it.
Derek: What? The python?
Dr. Spencer Reid: No, bite marks. Of course. That could be how he was doing it. That's why it was undetectable. Brain tissue, we need to look at brain tissue...
Derek: Okay, Reid.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Sorry. I don't think this is a biting fetish or cannibalism. I think it's a virus, and the biting is merely a means of transmission.
Derek: What kind of virus?
Dr. Spencer Reid: There are several possibilities. Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, tick-borne encephalitis, but the most likely culprit is rabies, and that wouldn't show up in an autopsy, except in brain tissue.
David: So, since Lewis was the only victim not bitten by a human, the UnSub must have used an animal to infect him first.
Dr. Spencer Reid: And after that, he somehow facilitated human to human transmission.
Derek: It would explain the random victimology. It doesn't matter who he infects. All he needs is a host.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Which also means the holding period isn't about torture, it's about incubation.
David: I was attacked by a rabid for once. Shot the thing three times before it went down. Freakin' terrifying. It was like a horror movie.
Dr. Spencer Reid: We need to have the M.E. test for rabies vectors in the brain samples.
Derek: And then we need to deliver the profile.

David: Forget the unsub. What do you want?
Jason: I want you to ask yourself that fundamental question that's been nagging at you this whole time.
David: I already answered it.
Jason: I'm the unsub. Why didn't I kill you when I had the chance?
David: [flashing back to his struggle with Lynch] You kill me, you killed a federal agent, and that brings down...
Jason: [imitating a buzzer] EHH! That's the wrong answer. You'd never been in that situation before. He had you on the ground, knife to your face. You resigned yourself to the thought of dying.

Dr. Spencer Reid: It's a long explanation, so bear with me. When Pheidippides ran a marathon, he had faith.
Aaron: He also died. Go on.

Mr. X: I don't often have the pleasure of hosting domestic law enforcement, given that our bailiwick is national security.
Emily: I only need one thing. The name of the drone pilot on the team that Tori Hoffstadt put together in 2016.
Mr. X: That information is confidential.
Emily: I understand you administer pysch evaluations to your recruits.
Mr. X: That's true.
Emily: The recruit I'm asking about would have tested as immature and unstable, with aggressive tendencies.
Mr. X: We wouldn't employ such a person.
Emily: But if you did, that would make you liable for his actions.
Mr. X: Let me be clear. We do not employ unstable individuals. However, even if we did, there's no liability that would attach to us. It's guaranteed by the government.
Emily: Have you ever pressed that guarantee when you've employed a serial killer?

Emily: [opening quote] "For after all, the best thing one can do when it is raining, is let it rain" - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Roberta: Well, well, well. The BAU is just a cornucopia of delicious masculine goodness, isn't it?
David: I heard you were a sweet talker
Roberta: Oh, did you now? What, was it Brown Eyes? Or was it Muscles who told you that?
David: Well, you got me there
Roberta: Aw, you are... you are something special, aren't you? Uh-huh! Silver fox! You have the experience to know how to treat a real woman, don't you?
David: Hm
Roberta: Oh
David: You know, I'd rather talk about you, Bobbi
Roberta: That's sweet of you to say, but...

Derek: [voiceover] "All truths are easy to understand, once you discover them; the point is to discover them." ~~ Galileo

Aaron: [beginning lines, voiceover which leads into view of funeral attendants and Aaron speaking] W.S. Gilbert wrote: "It's love that makes the world go round." And if that's true, then the world spun a little faster with Haley in it. Haley was my best friend since we were in high school. We certainly had our struggles, but if there's one thing we agreed on unconditionally, it was our love and commitment to our son, Jack. Haley's love for Jack was joyous, and fierce. That fierceness is why she isn't here today. A mother's love is an unrivaled force of nature, and we can all learn much from the way Haley lived her life. Haley's death causes each of us to stop and take stock of our lives; to measure who we are and what we've become. I don't have all those answers for myself, but I know who Haley was. She was the woman who died protecting the child we brought into this world together and I will make sure that Jack grows up knowing who his mother was and how she loved and protected him. And how much I loved her. If Haley were with us today, she would ask us not to mourn her death, but to celebrate her life. She would tell us - she would tell us to love our families unconditionally and to hold them close because in the end, they are all that matter. I met Haley at the tryouts of our high school's production of The Pirates of Penzance." I found our copy of the play and I was looking through it the other night, and I... came upon a passage that seemed appropriate for this moment. "Oh, dry the glistening tear that dews that martial cheek. Thy loving children hear, in them thy comfort seek. With sympathetic care, their arms around thee creep, for oh, they cannot bear to see their father weep."
[people begin leaving and putting white roses on Haley's casket; alone, Aaron carries Jack above Haley's grave]
Aaron: Okay, you can go ahead. Blow Mommy a kiss.
[Jack does so and Aaron, still carrying Jack, gets off the covered platform and walks away]

Luke: What bumps me is how the unsub disposed of the barrel. I mean, there is no way that he lifted that sucker up. It must weigh...
Dr. Spencer Reid: 542 pounds, give or take. Uh, depending on such factors as moisture content of the concrete, the victim's body weight, and the laws of displacements
Luke: Which still begs the question: how did he lift it?

Detective: [Brustin is offering a cigarette] I'm telling you, we're getting caught
Detective: Come on kid, we're cops!
Emily: [Enters the room] Smoking in a hospital is a federal offense!
Detective: You're on your own, kid!

Elle: [last lines] Abraham Lincoln once said, "In the end, it's not the years in your life that count, but the life in your years."

Jill: David Rossi in my office. Somebody pinch me.
David: You must be Agent Morris.
Jill: Jill, please. Can I take you anything? Coffee?
David: Actually, if you don't mind, I'd like for Dr. Reid and I to get to this.
Jill: Dr. Reid. Thank you both for coming. You won't be disappointed.

Derek: Baby girl, there's nothing to know. I hit a couple of buttons when I got stuck. That's it. What do you want?
Penelope: And?
Derek: Okay, I freaked out, a little bit.

Savannah: Run a tox screen, I'm guessing her severe pain is another case of oxy withdrawal.
Nurse: I'm on it.
Derek: [Walks in] You have a patient that suffers severe withdraws right here, doc.
Nurse: Does he need an exam?
[Savanna frowns at her]
Nurse: I'm running to the lab.

Maggie: [voiceover] When people look back and talk about us, they're gonna say what I did was right. That we were ahead of our time, we were pioneers.

Aaron: [voiceover] Domenico Estrada wrote: "Bring the past, only if you're going to build from it."

Emily: Where is he?
Agent: I put him in your office like you asked me to.
Emily: Thank you.
[as she enters her office, Morgan turns around]
Derek: Hey. We need to talk.

Derek: Hope you got a plan B!

Derek: Nothing like jet-sleep, right?
Elle: Yeah, it's kind a like a night of drinking without the drinking

Emily: [In prison, an inmate hits the glass facing them] Isn't that, eh...
Aaron: Garrett Pain. It's reinforced glass
Emily: Easy for you to say, he tore apart 14 women
Guard: Open on 15

David: [Tara drives into the parking] Wow, I haven't seen one of these beauties in a long time. It looks mint
Dr. Tara Lewis: Thank you
David: Who's your restoration guy?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Oh, um, you're looking at him. My dad has an auto repair show. He taught me everything I know. It took me five years to restore this puppy
David: Impressive. I inherited my uncle's '47 Buick
Dr. Tara Lewis: Now that is a sweet ride
David: Sure, but I don't have to tell you original parts are rarer than hens' theeth. I'm still looking for a, uh, radio antenna knob
Dr. Tara Lewis: It's funny, it's like we can track down world's dangerous and elusive unsubs but we can't find that one specific car part

Emily: Gigi Stevens, twenty-six year old waitress from Brooklyn.
M.E. Wong: Cause of death was loss of blood from all the compound fractures. This one tore her femoral artery; that was probably what did it. But did find a few postmortem fractures, as well.
Dr. Tara Lewis: What about a tox screen?
M.E. Wong: We found traces of alcohol and MDMA in her system.
Stephen: It's exactly like the first two victims.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Any sign of sexual assault?
M.E. Wong: None.
Emily: Breaking bones is what gets him off.

Matt: This is mislabeled. Unsub's older, predatory.
Emily: Yeah. Let's add it all up. The unsub gives the girls he grooms a necklace. But Chelsea stole Bethany's to figure out who he is.
Dr. Tara Lewis: And it's the smoking gun of their affair, dangerous enough to ruin his life if discovered. So he and Bethany come up with a plan to get it back.
David: This guy's been at it for a while. So who's in Bethany's life who also overlaps with JJ's sister?
Matt: Well, there's one obvious suspect. It's Tom Davis. He's Chelsea's dad, and he was Roslyn's old boyfriend.
Emily: Matt, Luke, bring him in. He has an alibi, and I wanna stress test it.

Jason: [opening quote] Dr. Thomas Fuller wrote: "With foxes, we must play the fox"

Derek: So what happened with you and JJ at the Redskins game?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Top secret!

Luke: Morning, Garcia.
Penelope: Mmm! How dare you bury the lede? How did the big move-in go?
Luke: It was great.
Penelope: So Lisa's all moved in?
Luke: She is.
Penelope: Details. Luke, give me details, or I'm gonna get grumpy with you like I used to.
Luke: We packed up the last few things in Lisa's old apartment, she handed in the keys, came home, unpacked a few more boxes. Oh, and then Lou and Phil came over.
Penelope: Lou! How is my sweet, sweet Lou?
Luke: High energy. Yeah, I mean, he really wears Roxy out. She sleeps for, like, two days straight after he visits.

Derek: This guy sits here for days and just watches these people, and he waits for them to commit a sin.
Penelope: Yeah, but Reid's completely innocent.
Derek: But if you dig deep enough in any of us, we all have our sins.
[Nervously]
Derek: Including Reid.

The: [Hotch has Foyet down and is beating him] You got me... I surrender. I surr...
[Hotch's beating intensifies as his own life flashes before his eyes... Morgan, Prentiss and Rossi enter, and Morgan restrains him]
Derek: HOTCH! HOTCH! He's dead! Hotch, stop! Come on, stop! It's over! It's over... it's OK... it's over, man.
[Hotch breaks down sobbing, then frees himself from Morgan's grip]

Peter: Taking a little mindfulness break? Trying to control your breathing? That's smart. It'll keep you sane. And I need you sane.

Dr. Spencer Reid: Do you mind?
Raphael: My father doesn't like it
Dr. Spencer Reid: Father? You're like 30
Raphael: At what age should one start disrespecting the wishes of their parents?

Jason: "Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed" - Genesis 9:6.

Aaron: What have you got, Garcia
Penelope: I'm trying to locate the last ping of Lance's cell phone, but I can't narrow it down to an exact tower yet.
David: How is that possible?
Penelope: Ping-a-cell 101. If I could direct your attention to the map. According to his last ping at 11 pm, the signal was bouncing off a tower in Benson, Arizona.
Aaron: But that doesn't fit the timeline. The security cameras show him entering the airport at 11:10 pm.
Penelope: It doesn't make sense. What makes even less sense is that 5 minutes later, the signal was bouncing off a tower in Drexel Heights 50 miles away.
Jennifer: That's impossible.
Penelope: Yeah, this is what I'm saying. The signal is tower hopping. It's giving a false read.
David: Correctamundo. The signal will automatically bounce to the next available tower even if it's out of the city.
Aaron: That means the unsub's hunting ground may be far bigger than we thought.

Penelope: [opening quote] "Strong men, men who are truly role models, don't need to put down women to make themselves feel powerful" - Michelle Obama

Emily: We all know the stats. If we don't find these kids with the next 24 hours, we'd be looking at body recovery. Can't let that happen

Penelope: [opening quotation] "I like to turn things upside down to see pictures and situations from another perspective." - Ursus Wehrli.

Elle: [looking at the search party volunteers] I grew up in Brooklyn. You couldn't get this many people out for anything less than free money.

David: You know, somehow he managed to talk Camille Harrison into a threesome with a prostitute. This guy must be quite the charmer
Dr. Spencer Reid: You are not kidding. The amount of germs exchanged in a situation like that, can be astronomical
Jennifer: Well, maybe Camille was into that kind of thing

Dr. Spencer Reid: Hey, Morgan? Has there ever been a girl that you wanted to be with for, you know, more than just one night?
Derek: Excuse me?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I've never seen you with the same girl twice.
Derek: What, are you calling me a dog?
Dr. Spencer Reid: No, no, not at all. I'm just trying to figure out if this feeling I have is ever gonna go away.

Derek: I'm your ride.
Aaron: I thought Agent Davis was driving me.
Derek: She was. I had her re-assigned.
Aaron: Don't you have something better to do?
Derek: Than to annoy you for three hours? Hell no.

Penelope: Guys, I have found something stranger than a time-traveling police box!

David: [opening quote, voiceover] "Within the core of each of us is the child we once were. This child constitutes the foundation of what we have become, who we are, and what we will be." - Neuroscientist Dr. R. Joseph.

Dr. Spencer Reid: You know, rethinking the type of offender he was seven years ago, it's possible the UnSub didn't sexually assault Hope initially but waited until she was older.
Emily: Well, that would explain why he held on to her all this time. In his fantasy, he might envision Hope at a more desirable age.
David: What story did he use to get into the support group?
Jennifer: Well, he told them his pregnant wife committed suicide. Apparently they were trying to conceive for over a year.
David: Hope couldn't bear the thought of bringing his child into this world, so she took what little control she did have and ended her life.
Emily: And that was never part of his plan. Turned his world upside down.
David: He's not ready to let go of the bond he had with Hope.
Dr. Spencer Reid: And now he's trying to get back what was taken from him.
Emily: Wouldn't it just be easier for him to start over again?
David: Unless Monica could give him what he lost - another Hope. He didn't take Monica to remind him of Hope. He took her... to recreate her.

[last lines]
Aaron: Emily, how much longer do we have you?
Emily: Um, six hours.
Penelope: It's too soon.
David: It's more than we had yesterday.
Penelope: Yeah.
Alex: I'm just glad I finally got to meet you. I've heard such amazing things.
Emily: All lies.
Jennifer: No. No more lies. Nothing but the truth from now on.
Detective William LaMontagne Jr.: Yeah?

David: See no evil, hear no gossip
Jennifer: Oh, come on, we see evil all day long

Emily: [voiceover] Lao Tzu said, "When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be."

David: [on the phone] Do me a favor, pull down the cell records for the tower closest to that hardware store. Make a list of all the missed calls and then give me a second list of the missed calls, originating from the Pacific Northwest
Penelope: You don't like it when it say this, but that's gonna take some time
David: Penelope, I... I'm not being mean here, I... I'm not being bitchy. This is not the old, rumpled Rossi who needs to go into therapy over his dead wife
Penelope: Okay, let me stop you there. You actually do need to go to therapy, but this is where I say: "I need more time" and you say: "We don't have any time" and then I save the day anyway. How about that?
David: It's like you know me
Penelope: Love you! Mean it
David: Thanks!

Tanner: I'm home. And when the baby comes, we're gonna be a family again.

Aaron: How clear is your head?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Not very clear.
Aaron: I want to talk to her parents but I want you to observe the interview.

Jessica: You're holding him like a cantaloupe.
Aaron: What? You think you can do better? Okay, smarty pants, knock yourself out.
[to baby Jack]
Aaron: Its okay, it's for the...
Jessica: [Now holding baby Jack who immediately stops crying]
Aaron: Well, let's see you profile a disorganized psychopath.
Haley: [Comes in with a phone] It's your wife.
Jason: [On the phone] Hey, I know you're taking the weekend, but I wanted to let you know we got a call...
Aaron: Ah, amazing, I am so glad you're here, sis. And with you coming to town, it's been so much easier to get him to take time off. And I never could have prepared a meal like that by myself!
[Aaron comes in]
Haley: Go.
Aaron: Honey, it's just a briefing, a couple of hours and I'll be back, okay?
Haley: It's okay. They need you. It's alright, I am not mad. Go.
[Leaves the room]
Aaron: You heard her. She said it is alright
Jessica: You're one hell of a profiler.

Derek: TNT doesn't pack much bang for its buck. It'd be pretty hard to hide the amount needed to cause the damage to that coffeehouse
Dr. Spencer Reid: It's like page 118.
[Derek looks surprised]
Dr. Spencer Reid: The Anarchist Cook Book, TNT for Dummies?

Syd: Are you the bad cop?
David: I'm not a cop.

Dr. Spencer Reid: You're minding your business or theirs?

Erin: Alex, do you have a minute?
Alex: I'm actually trying to finish up so I can get home tonight.
Erin: You got my voicemails?
Alex: I haven't had time to return calls.
Erin: Agent Hotchner tells me you're settling in nicely. I'm glad to hear it.
Alex: It's a great team.
Erin: Listen, I was hoping that we could talk, over coffee, maybe. I thought we might try to bury the hatchet once and for all.
Alex: Erin, no disrespect, but it's not necessary. What happened between us happened a long time ago. I've moved on. You should, too.
Erin: Well, that's what I'm trying to do. Look, I'm not very good at this, but I want you to know that I'm so sorry for what I did to you.
Alex: Apology accepted?
Erin: Apologies are just words. I want to make amends, and that takes work.

Dr. Spencer Reid: [opening quotation] "We must remember that Satan has his miracles, too." - John Calvin.

David: [Giving Emily advice] Take it from the guy who just married his third ex-wife for the second time

Dr. Spencer Reid: [the music on Morgan's iPod suddenly stops, and is replaced by Reid's voice] We interrupt your regularly scheduled musical selection with an important announcement: never wage a practical joke war against an MIT graduate, because we have a history of going nuclear. Now sit back, relax, and enjoy the dulcet sounds of me screaming in your ear. AAAAAAAAHHHHH!
Derek: [Morgan takes off his headphones] Okay, kid, that was cute. But that's all you got?
[Reid snores, feigning sleep]
Derek: [his phone rings] Hey, baby gi...
Dr. Spencer Reid: [Reid's recording cuts in] AHHHHHHH!
[still feigning sleep, Reid smirks; to diffuse the situation, Rossi waves a white flag of surrender]
Derek: Uh-uh. All right, Reid, it's on. Just know that paybacks are a bitch.

David: Talk to me, Penelope
Penelope: You were right, handsome Italian man

Jason: When we're dealing with a bomber, we're talking about someone who's non-confrontational. If you bumped into him at a cafe, he'd apologize; even if it wasn't his fault.
Aaron: We would classify this bomber as highly organized, based on the meticulous design of his bombs. It means above average intelligence. He probably has a skilled job, a trade, one that allows him to work alone. That's how he was able to make a sophisticated device without raising suspicion. Furniture maker, jeweler, et cetera.
Detective: Background in explosives?
Jason: No, not necessarily. You're thinking about a type who likes to blow things up. Gives them an emotional or sexual release. Death? Secondary.
Officer: Then what's this guy doing?
Jason: Murdering. Bombs? Just weapons. And these attacks, they are not random.
Officer: Well, how do you know that?
Aaron: By process of elimination. We know bombers fall into a discreet number of categories according to motive. There's the terrorist, whose aim is to spread fear; we expect him to strike in a populous area like a subway. There's the politically motivated bomber; he makes a statement by choosing a symbolic target like an abortion clinic. Then there's our unsub. He made bombs designed to kill and he chose his victims specifically by placing the bombs at their stoops. That tells us he has a direct motive. Statistically, he bombs for profit or to conceal a crime. And it tells us how we're going to find him - through the people he killed.
Jason: Somewhere among the three victims there is a direct motive. Keep digging.

Rhett: Now.
[takes Penny's photo]
Rhett: Wowza. You want to see?
Penny: I just want to go home.
Rhett: Trust me. I've had a lot of practice. You look great.
[moves a mirror to show her herself]
Rhett: What do you think? You like it?
[looks Kelly's photos]
Rhett: She didn't have it. I thought she did, but she didn't. You have it in spades, my dear.
Penny: I don't want to be famous.
Rhett: We all want to be famous.

David: You're coming, aren't you?
Erin: Just as a precaution. This team tends to go rogue when loved ones are involved.

Kate: You know, I am convinced most people don't pay attention these days. If it doesn't happen on the phone, it doesn't exist!

Alex: The origin of "nice" is 12th century Middle English, meaning "foolish" or "stupid." I hope you're referring to the modern use of the adjective.
[pause]
Alex: You must be Penelope. I'm Alex Blake.
Penelope: Nice to meet you. Really, actually nice in the nicest of ways nice.

Dr. Spencer Reid: Why leave a note so seemingly on the nose when every other action has been calculated for maximum pain? It has to mean more than simply "I'm angry". It's a clue, or a symbol. It means something to Morgan, and I think Chazz knows that.
Jennifer: Well, he wants to drive Morgan to exact revenge.
David: How do you think he's doing?
Jennifer: Well, after the physical and emotional stress of six months ago and now this? The guy's a saint.
David: He passed his return evals.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Yeah, but we wrote the questions. He knows exactly what to say.

William LaMontagne Jr.: You spend a lot of time telling people they can't blame themselves. So maybe you ought to take your own advice. You saved that boy's life, and the woman, too.
Jennifer: Yeah, what about Francesca's?
William LaMontagne Jr.: That wasn't your fault.
Jennifer: Oh, whose fault was it?
William LaMontagne Jr.: The unsub. And now because of you, he's never gonna be able to do that to anyone again.
Jennifer: Now she's dead because I made a choice.
William LaMontagne Jr.: No, don't. That monster killed her.
Jennifer: No, I chose Roberto. You want to know why?
[starting to cry]
Jennifer: Because he reminded me of Henry. That's it. I didn't even realize it 'till later, you know? Maybe if I went to her first, I... I could have saved both of them. I shouldn't have sent Luke out. We could have saved all of them. I know that.
William LaMontagne Jr.: Or maybe you'd all be dead. JJ, you're gonna spin like a top with the "what if?"s. Now, you made a choice; the best choice you could, and two people are alive because of it. You're a hero, Jennifer Jareau. You're my hero and your boys' and your team, and all those other people that you saved. Don't you ever forget that.

Penelope: So, what's the other reason you're not going with the team?
Derek: Baby girl, I made a promise to my son. Now, obviously he's not old enough to understand it, but that's not what matters. My promise was that I would come home to him every night, and so far I haven't broken it.
Penelope: How is Hank?
Derek: He just started walking.
[he laughs, and pantomimes]
Derek: Well, it's more like this little waddle. But the kid is walking. You know, I had no idea that I could love this much.

David: [Getting out of the car] You know, I can't believe it! The whole ride down here, you didn't mention the guy once! I'm just saying
Emily: What? Morgan? Okay, guys, I'm sorry. I was going to. I was just giving you space, I mean, he just left. It must still be raw. I remember leaving you guys both times. I was heartbroken. I'm sure he's gonna be okay. He's with his family and he's... Morgan. How are you guys doing? You're holding up?
Jennifer: Yeah, I mean, some days are better than others
David: Actually, I was giving you a hard time over your boyfriend Mark
Emily: Wait! How do you know about Mark?
Jennifer: Oh, come on! I'll give you one guess
Emily: Garcia!

Derek: [voiceover] Eckhart Tolle said, "Where there is anger, there is always pain underneath."

Emily: [opening quotation] "The spectacle is capital, accumulated to the point where it becomes image." - Guy Debord.

Jennifer: Hey, guys, look at this. Okay, so this was taken from just inside Lindsey's garage. What's missing?
Matt: The cops. They're not there yet.
David: But they responded within minutes. So whoever filmed this had to be there when it happened.
Jennifer: Well, this was filmed by a Kal Montgomery at Channel 3. I checked their site. He's on their I.T. staff.
David: First Channel 3 breaks the story about the hairclips, and now this.
Matt: Well, if he's not a cameraman or a reporter, he wouldn't show up on our sweep.
Jennifer: Oh, and I double-checked. His name is on every Neon Terror crime scene Channel 3's put on the news.
Matt: All right. I got him. Found him on social media. And it looks like he's posted multiple rants about an ex-girlfriend who looks a lot like our victims.
David: Sounds like a digital loner to me. Let's go have a chat with Kal.

Dr. Spencer Reid: Why does it have to be such a fast mile? Have you ever even had to run a mile in the field?
Dr. Spencer Reid: No.
Penelope: I'm not even in the field. I sit at a computer on my perfect posterior, like all day.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Maybe we should ask Morgan for help.
Penelope: No.
Dr. Spencer Reid: But he has really good abs...
Penelope: Yes, he does. But it's bad enough some bureaucrat is making us take this stupid test. The last thing we need is Mr. Universe talking smack the whole time.
Dr. Spencer Reid: But he knows about all this stuff. He can probably, like. Teach us some tricks, help us train.
Dr. Spencer Reid: You work out? That's cool. I don't.
Penelope: Yeah. In a non-traditional manner and never again with him. He was all, "there you go, baby girl. Move it or lose it". "This ain't your high-tech room. My grandmama can move better than that".

Aaron: [Garcia is tracing the unsub' signal] You're not going to make it
Penelope: Yes, I will! I will! I...
Aaron: Forget the unsub! Can you run a trace on everybody in the chat room?
Penelope: I can't do both, sir. Let me do this
Aaron: Garcia? Tag the viewers! That's an order!

Warden: Last thing this town needs is a Rod Garrett wannabe on the loose.

Police: Dave, you knew this was gonna happen. And just like you said, he's evolving. He killed the parents and then he took the teenage daughter. There was a struggle in her bedroom, but she's nowhere inside.
Luke: Did the unsub abduct the last time?
Police: No.
Luke: Checkpoints?
Police: We got 'em set up, but we're way behind this guy. That's the grandmother. You want me to talk to her?
David: No, I'll do it.

Emily: I know what you're gonna ask me, but I can't let you stay on this case. You're a potential target of a trained assassin. Now, I know you've requested a protective detail at the house for Lisa, but the fact of the matter is you need one, too.
Luke: Standard operating procedure. I get it.
Emily: Thank you for understanding. And we won't rest until we catch Jeremy Grant. I promise. Is there anything I can do for you?
Luke: Yeah. Yeah, I need to get home and see Lisa. I scared the hell out of her. And I need to start making phone calls and paying visits. Phil's parents... his brother and his sisters, his Army buddies and manhunters, people in C.I.D. Um... I need a little leeway with this detail on me.
Emily: Okay. But then I'll need regular check-ins from you.
Luke: Absolutely. We good?
Emily: We're good.

Detective: Hello?
Damon: You're late.
Alex: Like... what... five minutes.
Damon: You're still late.
Detective: Hey Pop.
Damon: How's the melon?
Detective: It's all right. It's fine.
Damon: Uh, you two made up, didn't you? Yeah, I figured... been doing that since you were kids. Fight like cats and dogs, then forget about it 10 minutes later. Used to drive your mother crazy. Then she'd drive me crazy.
Detective: Hey, Pop, you know she got shot?
Alex: Oh, that's great.
Detective: Well...
Damon: Yeah, I heard.
Alex: You heard?
Penelope: Mr. Miller? We need more ice.
Damon: Help yourself.
Penelope: Hey, what's up?... You must be Scott. I'm Penelope.
Detective: Hi.
Alex: What are you doing here?
Damon: I invited them.
Penelope: Yeah. It's only a two-and-a-half-hour flight. When I hear Kansas City barbecue, I come a runnin', for the sides and the fixings. I'm a vegetarian.
Alex: What do you mean, them?
[comes out to the garden]
Alex: Oh, you're all here. My words are colliding.
Aaron: And your dad promised ribs.
Derek: And your pops is no joke on this grill.
Damon: Can't celebrate unless the whole family's here.
Alex: I can't argue with that.

Derek: [seeing how fit JJ is upon her return from maternity leave] Okay, you did not just have a baby.

Jennifer: [closing quotation, voiceover] "The human voice can never reach the distance that is covered by the still, small voice of conscience." - Mahatma Gandhi.

Jennifer: Maybe victim zero was a junkie who got clean and rejected the unsub
David: Hm-hmm
Jennifer: Or maybe she fell off the wagon and he was furious, 'cause he worked to nurse her back to health
David: Hm-hmm
Jennifer: [Notices Rossi isn't paying any attention] Or maybe she was abducted by an aliens
David: Yeah, maybe
Jennifer: Okay, this ends now! Let me see
[Rossi hands his phone, see the picture of Kai and Hayden]
Jennifer: Oh, my goodness! What a cutie! Wait is that...
David: Hayden Montgomery, ex-wife number two

Aaron: Her ideal scenario, Jesse kills Wallace and she gets to stay the perfect mother.

Dr. Tara Lewis: It looks like the next victim after Dr. Childs was abducted during a home invasion
Penelope: Yes, Diane Pearl, 26, a school teacher
Matt: [reading] 2013, a side door was jammed, setting off an home alarm at 11.52 PM. Nothing was taken
David: Nothing, but Diane...

Aaron: So, victimology. Why Garcia?
David: Look at her.
Aaron: What are you saying?
David: You don't look like that by accident. She wears her individuality like a shield.

Penelope: Oh, God, JJ sent that alert 30 minutes ago. They must have looped the system. That's why I couldn't read any hard-lines.
Aaron: Which of the servers sent the message?
Security: [coming to Garcia and Kevin] Hands where we can see them.
Kevin: What? Wow, wow. Wow.
Penelope: Utherlay oadchurchbray... Utherlay oadchurchbray.
Alex: You don't need to be a linguist to recognize pig Latin.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Luther and Broad Church is the location of Cramer Industries. It's a research and development company.

David: Why is at the heart of every BAU investigation. This one isn't any different.

Aaron: So The Laybournes were abusing their daughter, where's this going?
Dr. Spencer Reid: One of the unsubs decimates parental figures, but we know the statistics there. It's-- It's likely he was abused himself.
Aaron: So you're saying the unsub recognized the signs of abuse, flew into a rage, and killed the parents?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Anger displacement. He's getting revenge for his own childhood abuse.
Lt. Nellis: So you think what, the victims were beating their kids?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Uh, the Laybourne case was just the trigger, but now they see all the parents the same.
Lt. Nellis: That doesn't explain the kids.
Derek: Maybe it does. Think of the family annihilators John List and Mark Barton. They thought they were saving their kids by killin' em.
Lt. Nellis: But what is he savin' them from?
Derek: Life without their parents, without love, life like his.

Derek: All right, baby girl. Talk to me. I need employer records and a list of venues that Culpepper contracted out to this weekend!
Penelope: Oh, sir, check your email. It hit you inbox 60 seconds ago
Derek: Thanks, Penelope

Derek: Hey Reid, you okay?
[Reid gives Morgan back his whistle]
Derek: Touche', kid!

Dr. Spencer Reid: The consistency of the disposal sites and methodologies tell us that he has no known or identifiable connection between any of the victims, and in fact wants them to be found, in order to convey his pose prayer message.
Derek: Well, the parks will give us behavioral clues to help us fill out our profile.
Aaron: All right, we should split up when we hit the ground. He's probably already chosen his next victim.

Derek: Hey, baby girl.
Penelope: [running and hugging him] Oh, my god! Oh, my god! It's you! It's really you! Oh, you smell like... you smell like hope and happiness. It is really you.
Derek: [she lets him go] Yes, it's me. It's me. But listen, you gotta focus, okay?
Penelope: Yeah. Anything. Anything. Focus. Focus on what?
Emily: This text.
Penelope: [reading the text, her eyes bug out] Oh, crap.

Aaron: You know, I always take advantage of Reid for his brain, but I never actually teach him how to deal with things emotionally.

Derek: [answering phone] Yeah
Penelope: Um pals, don't be ticked, but I think I may have missed the sort of glaringly obvious here. How would you make yourself taller, without being a different person entirely or having some weird sort of chinese surgery?
Elle: Heels
Penelope: Right sunshine, but we'd have seen heels. Unless the UnSub had them hidden inside his shoe, the point is lifts.
Derek: Lifts?
Penelope: Lifts. All hidden up inside his boot, with a little fancy footwork, pun emphatically intended, Garcia here managed to dig 'em out.
Derek: Thanks girl.

Bobbi: [after Paul and Johnny are apprehended] How can these guys do something like this?
Emily: Because they don't think like you and me.

Dr. Tara Lewis: Look, I just want to say, even if don't get the position, this was the best top job interview ever!

Penelope: Oh Dark Web! Thank you helping me see the light

David: Your child enters and leaves your life on the same day. That's one hell of a stressor.

David: The philosopher Voltaire wrote: "To the living we owe respect, but to the dead we owe only the truth." The dead are the cornerstone of every homicide investigation. Victims give us a look into the killer's mind. If you want to know about a hunter, study his prey.

Emily: Satanic cults... They were debunked as a suburban myth.
[Rossi stares at her]
Emily: What?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Rossi's the one who debunked them.
Emily: Oh, yeah...

Penelope: Of all the heroes I have met, and I have met a lot of heroes, you, Derek "Chocolate Thunder" Morgan, are the most heroic. Ohh...
[hugging him]
Penelope: That's for you.
[letting him go and hugging him again]
Penelope: This is for Hank.
[repeating the motion]
Penelope: And Savannah. This one is for you again. Oh, speaking of Hank, if you leave right now, you'll... you'll get home before he wakes up.
Derek: No, actually, I told Savannah I was gonna catch a later flight. I reached out to Reid for real. I wanna see him; I gotta see him. So I'm gonna bring him some breakfast and make sure him and his mom are okay.

Luke: I'm glad you came over, man. It's been a while.
Phil: Well, you should have called earlier. I would have helped you out with the move.
Luke: Oh, most of Lisa's stuff was here already. It was just a last couple things.
Phil: Hmm. Classic Luke Alvez. Willing to go at it alone.
Lisa: Oh, you should have seen him wrestle the bed frame at my apartment. He kept saying "Don't worry, Lisa. Just stand back."
Phil: "I got this."
Luke: You two are the worst. Okay, that's exactly why I didn't invite you to help.

Jennifer: Town versus gown it happens.
Dr. Spencer Reid: All the way back to the battle of St. Scholastica day.
Kate: Okay, I'll take the bait. What's the whatever it is you just said?
Dr. Spencer Reid: The battle of St. Scholastica day? Glad you asked. Oxford, 1335: citizens attack students and professors with bows and arrows; fighting went on for two days and nearly a 100 people were killed.

Shelley: This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine. This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine.

Dr. Tara Lewis: [opening quote] And think not that you can direct the course of love... if it finds you worthy it directs your course - Kahlil Gibran, the Prophet

Dr. Spencer Reid: Guys, are they cover-subsidence or cover-collapse sinkholes?
Luke: Given their shallow layer of repair, I'd say they're cover-subsidence
David: I'd chime in with an opinion as well if I knew what the hell you two are talking about
Dr. Spencer Reid: Cover-subsidence is where the ground really gradually begins to form a depression, usually circular, which occurs over the course of weeks or months
Luke: Cover-collapse is the nasty one. That's when the earth suddenly goes out from under your feet like a trapdoor

Penelope: [about to watch a tape] 10 bucks if this involves naked co-ed's and a plumber
Dr. Spencer Reid: What?
Penelope: Never mind!

Dr. Tara Lewis: [Calling Emily] Emily, it's me. How's London?
Emily: It is receding in the rearview mirror. I am on my way home right now.

Dr. Spencer Reid: Autopsy report revealed fragments of glass in some of Angela's wounds.
Aaron: Were they able to identify the blades used?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Only that there were a number of them.
David: The doctor mentioned she had heavy metals in her blood.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Yeah, the highest one being lead.
Derek: Well, add that to the unique patterns of her wounds and the glass in her cuts. Maybe this guy worked with stained glass. Talbot had stained glass in his front door.
Ashley: The Owens had stained glass window chimes in their condo.
David: Lead fumes can get into your system during the soldering process.
[Seaver gives Rossi a weird glance]
David: What? My second wife was crafty.

Emily: [closing quote] "It isn't what they say about you, it's what they whisper" - Errol Flynn

Derek: Is that barbed wire?
Penelope: Indeed it is, arranged to fit like a noose.
Derek: How do you wrap that into a noose?
Penelope: I guess it's the same way that porcupines make love. Very carefully.

Brian: Of the hundreds of murderers that you have encountered, why did you choose to write about Yates?
David: With him it was personal
Brian: Well, every year on your birthday you would visit Yates in prison and he'd give you the location of a body of one of his victims. Why is that?
David: Tommy Yates was in an 8-by-6 foot cell. Every second of his life was dictated
Brian: So it was a game to him?
David: It was and I played along in order to provide closure to those families

Aaron: What is it, Garcia?
Penelope: For the last two days I've been searching through vicap for similar rapes and murders and cases that are still open. That has yielded me diddly squat, so I regrouped, I looked at some pictures of baby Panda and I went back in and looked at started searching for similar rapes and murders of cases that have been solved

Det. Yarbough: How the hell do we catch an invisible man?

Derek: Alright, let's meet on the plane in 30

Dr. Spencer Reid: [closing quote] Christopher Marlowe said: "It lies not in our power to love or hate, for will in us is overruled by fate"

Aaron: Reid, I just finished the case file. I talked to Morgan and JJ and I wanted to talk to you about what happened.
Dr. Spencer Reid: The hostage was clear and I made a tactical decision to tell the UnSub the truth about his condition.
Aaron: And what did you think that would accomplish?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Well, Hotch, I thought the last time I was in a situation like this, I did exactly what I was supposed to. I told a perfect lie and that didn't work, so this time, in the hopes of saving someone's life, I tried something different.
Aaron: And this didn't work.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Sadly, no.
Aaron: To me, this is very clearly about Maeve.

Alex: Did any of you work on the Silencer case?
David: That was during my extended sabbatical.
Aaron: We all consulted, but nobody made the trip to Texas.
Alex: Why not? Three women in four months; that's textbook kill rate. An undeniable signature, obvious surrogates...
Aaron: We weren't invited by the local police.
Alex: Aren't you tired of that?
Aaron: Welcome to our world.

Luke: What was Rebecca like as a person?
Dr. Tara Lewis: She's described as strong-willed, determined. Working to support her two kids.
Matt: When was Rebecca last seen?
Penelope: Uh... well, her boyfriend, and by "boyfriend" I mean "pimp", Jason Carlsbad, reported her missing when she didn't show up and donate to his college fund. I'm sending you deets right now.
David: Normally, I would want to look at him. Pimps hurt women they exploit to gain control, but an M.O. this complex doesn't add up.
Luke: Yeah, the cannibalism angle wouldn't make sense, either.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Eroticizing the consumption of human flesh is a pretty specific fetish. Are we sure that he's copying that from Ferell?
Emily: We need to nail that down. Dave, Tara, go to the M.E.'s office. Matt and Spencer, head to Hazelwood State. Notorious criminals have fans who might want to copy their work. Luke, you and I will head to the PD and set up a base of operations with Detective Russ.

David: Hey, I thought I'd lend you a hand
Derek: Ha, Rossi! Brought a little something to drink. I like that!
David: Well, you can't do renovation without a little bevvy
Derek: Ah, wait a minute now, you know I don't renovate, but restore, there's a big difference

Penelope: What?
Emily: I... I'll tell you later.
Penelope: I do not like the sound of "I'll tell you later."
Emily: It's JJ's night, and I don't want to...
Penelope: All right. If you are telling me that there is something bad happening right now to balance out the goodness that is tonight, I will have none of it, because I don't believe in that. Although it's totally one of the truths of life, isn't it? The bitter and the sweet mixed up together in a cosmic soup that we've all signed up for.
Derek: Penelope. Penelope. Breathe. Breathe.
Penelope: I think Kevin's here tonight. It would make sense that he would come tonight, don't you? He's here. He's here and he's with her, so I'm gonna go somewhere which is not... Go somewhere that is not... that is not here.

David: [gazing at Spencer] I never could do that.
Emily: Do what?
David: Take a nap. Never felt natural.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I'm actually wide awake, but for future reference, polyphasic sleep is completely natural, quite common in the animal world, and highly beneficial.

[Dr Reid has managed to decode steganographic messages hidden in letters written by a convict in prison]
Dr. Spencer Reid: Normally, you'd use a computer to examine all the combinations, but in this case it was faster just to write it all out longhand until I found the right code.
Emily: [Poking Reid's cheek] He's so lifelike!

Captain: I knew about Buford molesting Morgan, but there were more kids...
Aaron: Well, preferential offenders typically have dozens of victims. And each reacts differently; Morgan became an FBI agent, and this one went the other way.
Captain: You know, had I known back in the day that Morgan was going through all this, I wouldn't have arrested him six years ago. And I sure wouldn't have been so hard on him as a kid.
Aaron: I know.

Dr. Castro: Fifty-three stab wounds to the lower abdomen and genitals. The damage made it impossible to determine if there was any sexual assault.
David: That might be a forensic countermeasure.
Dr. Castro: Here's my report. Stay as long as you need. Her mother should be here in an hour.
David: Hell of a way to see her after two years.

David: We never found any evidence of a killer satanic cult! In reality there are only two types of violent satanic criminals
Dr. Spencer Reid: Ah, type one: teens Satanists, assume satanic identity to rebel. Minor crimes, theft and vandalism, to churches, schools, symbols of authority. When combined with drugs and alcohol, they may turn violent
David: Yes, in extreme cases, deadly... That was out of my book, word for word!
Derek: Oh, trust us: we know!

Agent: We've been getting statements from anyone who was anywhere inside the building at the time of the shootings. Glad to have your help with that.
Emily: Of course. Forming any theories?
Agent: Well, we're all over the map, because a lot of things don't seem to be adding up. That's why we need help from the BAU.
Emily: What's not adding up?
Agent: Different things. For instance, I took a statement from the receptionist. She said the security guard, Douglas Bell, came into the area. She saw his weapon drawn.
Emily: Makes sense. He was responding to shots fired.
Agent: The guy did two tours in Afghanistan and he was shot multiple times, mid range, in the head and torso.
Emily: How many shots did Bell fire?
Agent: None. His firearm was in his hand when we found the body, but it hadn't been fired.
Emily: He might have recognized the gunman. That could have made him hesitate. He was trained to return fire. You're right. It doesn't add up.

Dr. Spencer Reid: You know what, Calvin, you're right. I don't know prison. But I do know how to stop a psychopath.
Calvin: That was out there. In here, we're all psychopaths, We have to be, 'cause it's predator or prey. Which one are you?

Derek: [opening quotation, voiceover] "And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out and cast it from thee." - Matthew 5:29.

Penelope: It's like looking for a needle in a needle stack in a field full of needles.

David: The bitterest tears shed over graves are for words left unsaid and deeds left undone. Harriet Beecher Stowe.

Benjamin: Mothers... fathers... children, though we walk through the valley of the shadow of death, we fear no evil, for thou art with us.
David: [listening through the bugs] This doesn't fit. I looked him in the eye. He was calm, lucid.
Aaron: They're committing mass suicide.
David: We don't know that for sure.
Derek: Rossi, he just said it.
Dan: We're ready to go.
David: If we go in there, people are gonna die.
Aaron: People are already dying.

Penelope: [Typing on her computer] I don't think I'm gonna find anything and I am rarely wrong, so...
[a result pops up]
Penelope: I'm wrong!

Dr. Spencer Reid: It's not possible. Even if you are pregnant, the baby's not mine.
Cat: Except for the part where it is.
Dr. Spencer Reid: That's completely preposterous. You've been in prison.
Cat: So have you.
Dr. Spencer Reid: And we've never had...
Cat: I know. We've never...
[pause]
Cat: Ask me how I did it. Come on, ask me.
Dr. Spencer Reid: [rolling his eyes] How did you do it?
Cat: I had Lindsey dose you in Mexico. You lost time. And I gave her very specific instructions to get you in the mood.
Dr. Spencer Reid: What, did she pretend to be you?
Cat: Why? Would that have worked?
Dr. Spencer Reid: No.
Cat: Yeah, I know. I know. Believe me, I know exactly where I stand on the Spencer Reid "Hot or Not" list. I told her to pretend to be Maeve. Maeve Donovan. The love of your life. Who had her brains blown out right in front of you before you two could even kiss. So dark... yet so useful.

David: I actually think San Quentin was nicer.
Jonathan: Yeah, trust me, it's not.
Dr. Spencer Reid: What do you mean?

David: How'd it go with Jack?
Aaron: I just told him that I wasn't going to be around as much.
David: How'd he take it?
Aaron: He gave me a hug, and he said that everything was gonna be all right.
David: Smart kid. Like his dad.

[last lines]
Derek: How did you know I was going to be home?
Savannah: Sit... Penelope sent me a text when you guys left Chicago.
Derek: Oh, she did?... And you did all of this for me?
Savannah: Yes. And... I made you... this.
Derek: Well.
Savannah: Which is why takeout will be here in 20 minutes. I hope you like Indian.
Derek: Anything is better than whatever that is.
Savannah: I know. It's kind of bad... Stop!
Derek: How was your day? Did you save some lives?
Savannah: Mm. We both did.
Derek: Yeah, we did... So, uh, what do you got in mind for the next 20 minutes?

[first lines]
Announcer: This is a special report from La Plata County, Colorado.
Reporter: We're reminded of Jim McKay's words from Munich: "Our greatest hopes and our worst fears are seldom realized." Let's hope it's not the latter as we wait to hear the fate of the women, children, and FBI agents inside the building.

Mr. X: If the pilot you're looking for became unstable, it most likely happened after he left Peakstone.
Emily: Why would that happen?
Mr. X: Sometimes, like discharged military personnel, they have difficulty processing their experiences.
Emily: Why?
Mr. X: A variety of reasons, I suppose. Some of them have trouble with the letter.
Emily: What letter?
Mr. X: The one they get thanking them for their service and providing them with statisitical information on their missions.
Emily: Statistical information? You mean body counts?
Mr. X: Yes. Among other things.
Emily: Why would you give them that letter?
Mr. X: It's protocol, designed to protect them.
Emily: From what?
Mr. X: False information. Many of their missions are reported on in the media. We want them to have accurate statistics, and we don't want them blindsided by any information.
Emily: That kind of letter, in my line of work, we call that a trigger.
Mr. X: You make it sound so sinister. It's not that at all. They're aware from the beginning that they'll be given those statistics at the end of their service. Those who can't handle it don't open them.
Emily: Not everyone has the self-awareness to make that decision. Now, if you add that trigger to an unstable individual, you get...
Mr. X: You get what, Agent Prentiss? A serial killer? I highly doubt that you could prove that.

Penelope: Hay, I got access to four bank robberies worth of security footages. What got I to do with them?
Aaron: You know that digital perspective whatever software?
Penelope: Digital perspective analysis rendering?
Aaron: Yes
Penelope: Honey, not only do I know it, I helped develop it!
Aaron: Good, as I want to know every physical dimension of the unsub: height, waist size, inseam, everything you can get me
Penelope: Right, if he opens his mouth, I can give you the length of his teeth
Aaron: Just keep it clean and don't call me honey!

Lawrence: Damn it, Irene, you should have known she was gonna try to kill herself again.
Irene: We knew this was going to happen when we first started planning years ago. We talked about it, remember? What is done is done.
Lawrence: She betrayed our mission.
Irene: But did we have to dump her by the side of the road like that, like she was trash? Roberta has been a part of our lives for five years.
Lawrence: You wrapped her in a blanket, and that was more than she deserved.
Irene: I need to tell the others something.
Lawrence: Well, just make sure they don't get the same stupid idea. It could ruin everything.
Irene: Lawrence, you're not having doubts that it's going to happen, are you?
Lawrence: I believe it more than ever now.
Irene: As do I.
Lawrence: Let's just make sure this new one does, too.

Derek: Hotch!
Aaron: Yeah?
Derek: We got a hot weapon. Oh, no. It's a Glock 19. And this round is standard law enforcement issue.
Aaron: So you're saying Baker's an undercover cop?
Derek: I'm saying I did 18 months deep cover, and this place has got all the makings of a crash pad.

Rory: How far do you think we could get with this? Think we could make it to California? That's where you want to live, right?
Chrissy: RJ.
Rory: Yeah.
Chrissy: How did you find me? I never told you where I lived.
Rory: You didn't have to. When I want something, I take it. That's what happens when you can't count on anyone else. I've been thinking. It gets lonely, you know? And you were always so kind to me online. You changed everything. So I thought instead of, you know, ending it all, that we could be friends. We could have an adventure. You said you wanted to get out of here, that your parents wouldn't let you, that they were controlling. You never would have made it to California with them around.
Chrissy: I didn't mean... I didn't want you to hurt them. Did you already hurt them?
Rory: Calm down. I-I am trying to be nice.
Chrissy: Did you? Did you hurt them?
Rory: It'll be hard at first not being with your parents. You'll get used to it. I did. It's just us now.

Emily: [On the recording of a 911-call] Were you able to run a digital trace?
Penelope: Yes and no: would you believe it came from the Ukrainian city of Sloviansk?

Asher: I'm going to jail, aren't I?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Not if you cooperate
Asher: All right. I did it. All of it

Jennifer: [about the unsubs jamming cell phone reception] You can buy a cell phone jammer for a hundred bucks
Lt. Nellis: I'll use one of those next time I go to the movies.

Jennifer: [opening quotation, voiceover] "And so, all the night tide I lay down by the side of my darling, my darling, my life and my bride, in the sepulcher there by the sea, in her tomb by the sounding sea." - Edgar Allan Poe.

David: Why didn't you tell us Molly battled with severe anorexia?
Jerry: I didn't know. All right, look, it's not as bad as you're making it out to be here. She was always a chubby kid, right? She always had to watch what she ate.
David: Did she get treatment?
Jerry: We don't believe in stuff like that. We're hard-workers. We like to solve our own problems.
David: It's urgent that you tell me everything that you know... Mr. Grandin, I'm having difficulty understanding why keeping Molly's secrets is more important than finding her alive.
Jerry: It's not. She just wouldn't want anyone knowing her personal problems.
David: Your daughter is specifically vulnerable to this suspect because of her private emotional issues. Now, we need to know as much about Molly as does the person who's holding her captive. So I'm going to ask you again, are there any other secrets you're not sharing with me?
Jerry: ...She collapsed about a year ago. Malnutrition. Anemia. She wasn't eating.
David: Did she get treatment?
Jerry: Thirty days. Finley Center for Eating Disorders.
David: At Syracuse General?
Jerry: Yeah... Why?
David: Gail Langston was treated there for depression.
Jerry: I should have told you.
David: ...Yeah.

Derek: Tactical's been deployed, snipers are moving into position.
Erin: The director's ordered a full tactical assault.
Derek: His last orders cost us an agent.
Detective William LaMontagne Jr.: SWAT's getting itchy fingers.
Aaron: Well, you remind SWAT that bank robberies are federal jurisdiction. No one fires until they're ordered to.
Detective William LaMontagne Jr.: Right.
Aaron: All right, when the crossfire starts, what's gonna happen to the hostages caught in the middle?
David: That's the wrong call, Erin, and you know it.
Erin: It's not my call.
Aaron: You're here and you're in charge.
Erin: So, you want me to disobey the director?
David: Yes.
Aaron: No. I just want you to buy us a little time. Don't be quite so efficient.
Erin: Whatever you're gonna do, do it fast.
Aaron: All right.

Stephen: Look, Mr. Fords, we appreciate that our kind isn't welcome around here.
John: Hey, I don't judge folks by the color of their skin.
Stephen: Well, I was thinking more us being federal agents. The last thing you want is your customers to see you ratting them out to us.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Something did bother you about this woman. Like how she was so petite and yet so experienced around a hand cannon like a .50 caliber Desert Eagle. Or the fact that she used multiple identies when she was buying ammunition for it.
John: Second. That's the amendment that guarantees my customers' right to bear arms. Fifth. That's the amendment where my customers' right to privacy is established. Griswold v Connecticut, I believe.
Dr. Tara Lewis: This woman works for the drug cartels. We need to find her before she kills another victim.
John: [skeptical laugh] Cartels. Her. Jesus wept. That's one hell of a story.
Stephen: Tell us another one, then.
John: The reason why that little miss has multiple IDs is because she's been harassed by bigots her entire life. And now her and her fiancé fell in love.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Her fiancé? She was engaged?
John: And just as I don't judge race, I don't judge folks for who they love, either. Now get the hell out of my store, 'cause unless there's a Supreme Court case I haven't heard of, Obergefell v. Hodges is still the law of the land.

Dr. Spencer Reid: Same victimology?
Detective: We don't have a positive id on either one of them yet, but the clothing fits. You really think this is only one guy, huh?
Dr. Spencer Reid: The level of overkill suggests an unsub in a psychotic break. Multiple unsubs in violent psychotic breaks operating in the exact same location is exceedingly unlikely
Derek: Yeah, it's probably one guy

Karen: [tearfully, driving vehicle] Please, whatever you want, I will give you.
Maggie: [looking at baby] Is he still drinking formula, or is he onto milk?
Karen: I have stocks and I have money.
Maggie: I wanted to breast-feed him, but they took him away. You know what happens when a mommy can't get rid of her milk? The pain is excruciating; they give you this pill that dries you up. That's the most unnatural thing in the whole world, little Johnny.
Karen: His name is Ben.
Maggie: [angrily, looking in rearview mirror] It's Johnny!
[petulantly]
Maggie: You changed it. Can he eat peanuts? Because his dad is highly allergic.
Karen: His dad? Who are you?
Maggie: [in gentle voice, looking at baby] I'm his mother and I'm here to take him back. Hi, baby. Mommy's here. Yeah.
[baby continues fussing]
Maggie: Pull over.
[she cocks her head repeatedly]

Jennifer: Hi, uh, we're agents Jareau and Lewis with the FBI. We're wondering have you seen this woman?
[Shows picture]
Jennifer: She would have been here like three days ago
Bartender: No!
Dr. Tara Lewis: Are you sure? She might have been here with somebody else
Bartender: It's a bar. Lots of people coming and going in here
Jennifer: Well, she's missing, so any information you can give us will be greatly appreciated
Bartender: Sorry
Dr. Tara Lewis: All right, thank you.
[walks away, but immediately turns back]
Dr. Tara Lewis: Oh, I'm sorry, one other thing. Who's the general manager here?
Bartender: I am
Dr. Tara Lewis: Oh, that's great! Because we actually got an anonymous tip that somebody is skimming off the receipts, so we're just gonna need to take a quick look at your books
Bartender: Hold... hold on. I thought you were interested in missing person?
Jennifer: We are. But the FBI also handles federal tax violations
Dr. Tara Lewis: I mean, you have books, right? 'Cause if you don't have books we have to shut this place down
Bartender: Can I see that photo again?
Jennifer: Oh. This one?
Bartender: Okay. Yeah, you know what? I think I remember her now. Yeah! I... , she wasn't in here very long

Dr. Spencer Reid: Methanol is compositionally speaking, the simplest of the alcohols. It's actually ubiquitous in the environment. There are small traces of its vapor in the atmosphere, but atmospheric methanol is easily oxidized by sunlight.
Emily: Is it toxic?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Ingesting ten milliliters of it will cause permanent blindness, and as little as 30 is potentially fatal.
Derek: Well, these victims had between five and six ounces in their lungs.
Dr. Spencer Reid: You know, if they were immersed in it, they would have died even without ingesting or inhaling it. When absorbed through the skin, it depresses the central nervous system to an unsustainable degree.
Derek: Well, what's it used for?
Dr. Spencer Reid: What isn't it used for? A solvent, an antifreeze. In World War II, the Germans used it for rocket fuel. It's used in wine-making. Its most commonplace use however, is in the creation of other chemicals. Methanol can become plastic, plywood, paint, explosives, permanent-press textiles. It's essentially the chemical used to separate other chemicals from each other.

David: [opening quote] "What madness is it to be expecting evil before it comes?" - Lucius Annaeus Seneca

Sarah: How long have you been doing this, Dr. Reid?
Dr. Spencer Reid: 5 years, 7 months, and 19 days.
Sarah: In your experience, what normally happens?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Charlie was 8 when he was taken, which means developmentally, he was in middle childhood. He had a stronger sense of right and wrong and a growing understanding of his place in the world. Mentally, he had the ability to talk about his thoughts and feelings, while having less focus on himself and more concern for others.
Sarah: [nodding blankly] So you think he's gonna be OK?
Dr. Spencer Reid: With a mother like you who-who did all this, I-I do. I'm a doctor. I put my faith in facts and statistical probabilities, but today, 8 parents are gonna have closure. 3 children are going home with their families, all because you believed your son was alive. That's as close to a miracle as I've ever seen.

Emily: I know this isn't easy for you
Samantha: If I accuse him and, and he has done nothing... then I betrayed him
Samantha: But if he has, you'll save a young boy

Jennifer: I don't wanna be unit chief, not like this
David: I've been in your shoes and for the lack of a better word: it sucks! But you're gonna do just fine
Jennifer: Linda Barnes will try to pick us apart, one by one
David: There have been people trying to pick us apart since the doors opened. It hasn't worked yet

David: [voiceover] If I am what I have, and if I lose what I have, who then am I? German psychologist Erich Fromm

David: You said out there, team shares everything.
Aaron: That's right.
David: There is no *I*?
Aaron: Yeah.
David: It seems a big thing to withhold separating from your wife and child.
Aaron: What are you talking about?
David: You used to call Haley ten times a day. We've been together 48 hours and I haven't seen you call her once or mention her. And you're not going home now.
Aaron: What's your point?
David: I guess you are not used to sharing.
Aaron: My private life is not the same as a case.
David: I'm just saying, sharing is a learning skill.

Penelope: Penelope Garcia coming to you live on location for a limited time only.
Jennifer: Yeah, the most recent pedestrian victim. What you got on her?
Penelope: Ohh, that's right, victim. I make jokes to cover up the sad. Okay. Meredith Courtelis, twenty-two, raven haired beauty. She was low risk. She lived with her parents. She was going to school. She wanted to be a physician's assistant.
Jennifer: What about a boyfriend?
Penelope: She doesn't have one. Not according to her social media. Looks like Meredith was her own girl. Chronically single. Friends kept trying to set her up.
Jennifer: All right, well, this unsub specifically targeted her over other available targets. Is... is there a connection to the driver? His name's Mark Keeling.
Penelope: [typing on her computer] Mm, I got bupkis on that.
Jennifer: No connection. It's the one thing he's been consistent about.

Matt: Garcia wasn't part of the plan.
Luke: No, but she is now.

Dr. Spencer Reid: This doesn't make any sense, Morgan.
Derek: Well, does it ever, Reid?

Penelope: Does anyone remember this picture?
David: Hotch and I were there. That's Principal Doug Givens. We had to drag him to safety.
Emily: High school bombing in Boise, right?
Jennifer: School shooter *and* school bomber. A kid named Randy Slade shot three students, and then set off an IED in the cafeteria via cell phone, killing himself and thirteen kids total, but not before posting all of his plans online. It was one of those "where were you?" events. My whole campus was glued to the TV.

Aaron: Could you send details about the case or the unsub?
A.G. Patrick Jackson: It's not the unsub you need to worry about. It's the lawyers!

Luke: Hey, Reid. It's good to see you, brother. It's me, Luke.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Luke. Thank you for coming.
Luke: Of course.
David: We're gonna get you out of here, kid.
Emily: We need to work out some details with the locals, okay?
Luke: Who was your contact down here?
Dr. Spencer Reid: [showing them the scribble on his arm] Rosa. Rosa Medina. I think she's a doctor.
Luke: [taking a picture of Reid's arm with his phone] All right. Where did you meet her?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I don't remember.
Luke: If you saw her, would you... would you remember her?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Yeah. I think so.
Emily: [seeing how spaced out he is] You're missing time, aren't you?
Dr. Spencer Reid: It's peeking out. It's coming in flashes.
Emily: And you've been drugged.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Yeah, but I didn't take it myself.
Emily: No, of course you didn't, Spencer. We're thinking it might be Scratch.

Emily: Morgan and I were joking around on the jet, but something is definitely up. Is there anything you want to share?
David: It's nothing. Uh... I had breakfast with Carolyn the other morning.
Emily: Carolyn? Oh! Is that wife number four or five?
David: Look, let's get our facts straight. I only had three wives. I mean, that's in the realm of reasonable.
Emily: [snickering] Okay, I'm sorry.

Dr. Spencer Reid: This is kind of starting to freak me out a little bit.
Derek: Let's figure out if we have a crime before we start freaking out.

Emily: [opening quotation, voiceover] Winston Churchill said "There is no doubt that it is around the family and the home that all the greatest virtues of human society and created, strengthened, and maintained."

Viper: You see, eye contact is a very powerful gauge. That's why you tend to look away from someone you're attracted to because you know, instinctively, what a dead giveaway it is. But your brain goes there anyway: images, fantasies.
Jordan: Don't flatter yourself.
Viper: The eyes don't lie. They dilate. It's a chemical response we can't control.
Emily: Okay, 15 seconds.
Jordan: What do you see?
Emily: No, no change. No dilation.
Jordan: I guess chemically we're not a match.
Viper: Only because you have someone else on the mind. Once that happens, the attraction center in the brain shuts down.

Derek: What's he doing?
Dr. Spencer Reid: We've been thinking about this case too linearly. Based on the complexity of the code, it's obvious this UnSub is operating on several different levels, so we need to start thinking in multiple dimensions.

Derek: How the hell did we beat the bomb squad here?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I could give you the statistics, but I don't think this is the time

Jennifer: [Enters Garcia's computer room] Hey Garcia?
Penelope: [Dozed away, now wakes up] AUGH! I like knocking!

Emily: Emily Prentiss:
[voiceover]
Emily: Author Elizabeth Bear wrote, "The secret to getting away with lying is believing with all your heart. That goes for lying to yourself even more so than lying to another."

Emily: So Hotch is even more intense now that Gideon's gone.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Yeah, I've noticed.
Emily: Do you think that's gonna change?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I certainly think we'll find out.
Emily: What about you? You okay?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Oh, I'm- I'm great.
Emily: Do you want to talk about it?
Dr. Spencer Reid: What's there to talk about, really?
Emily: Gideon.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Oh, no. He, uh- he left a letter explaining everything. Just like my dad did when he abandoned me and my mom.
Emily: He addressed it to you.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Yeah, yeah. You know, Gideon stood toe to toe with some of the... the sickest people on this planet. I think that took a lot of courage, right?
Emily: Yeah.
Dr. Spencer Reid: So, why'd he do this? It's addressed to me, but I'm- I'm not- I'm not the only one that he abandoned.
Emily: But why is it addressed to you? I think you need to read that letter again.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I have an eidetic memory, Emily.
Emily: Ah, yeah, I know, and an IQ of 187, but what do you remember about your father?
Dr. Spencer Reid: What do you mean?
Emily: Well, he gave you ten years before he left, and yet you've erased all those memories. And it's too painful, I get it. But then Gideon leaves. I think you need to read that letter again, and ask yourself why, of all the people he walked away from, did he only explain himself to one person: you.

David: Israel Keyes evaded capture for decades, because he cracked the code
Dr. Tara Lewis: Right: "don't kill anybody connected to you and don't kill in a space that can be connected to you"

Detective: Twenty-six year old Lisa Jackson was abducted last night in Brooklyn. Apparently she was walking home from a bar with a friend when a man in an SUV pulled up, attacked them both with a hammer. Friend wakes up, Lisa's gone.
Emily: He only took one of them.
David: He only needs one. Plus, two is a lot of work.
Stephen: Was the friend able to give a description of the attacker?
Detective: Yeah. Matches White. She said she saw him having drinks at the bar earlier.
Luke: He's out drinking. He's either arrogant or he's just not paying attention to the news.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Or he can't resist the urge to hunt.

Sean: [Aaron hands him a business card] What's this?
Aaron: Paul Morris. He's in the New York field office. If you ever need anything, give him a call. He'll take care of you.
Sean: Is this your way of saying I can't take care of myself?
Aaron: No. It's my way of saying I'm a jackass.
Sean: Yeah, well, it must be hereditary.

David: Go back to when she gave it to you. Go there right now.
Roslyn: [flashback] I want you to have it.
Young: But you love this necklace. Are you sure?
Roslyn: I'm sure. Because no matter what happens, I'll always love you, JJ. And besides, this necklace will help ward off the Tall Man.
Young: That's a stupid made-up story.
Roslyn: The story's made up, but some monsters are real. And if a real monster ever sees you wearing this, he'll know not to mess with Jennifer Jareau, 'cause she's a total badass.
Young: You think I'm a badass?
Roslyn: I think you're the baddest of asses. And that came out wrong.

Aaron: Alright, find the website?
Penelope: On it and... sweet mother Gross! It's the Tinder for sociopaths!

David: The BAU started in a room just like this one. If this is how it goes out, so be it!
Dr. Spencer Reid: We're all in

Emily: [voiceover] Friedrich Nietzsche wrote "What really raises one's indignation against suffering is not suffering intrinsically, but the senselessness of suffering."

David: Irish statesman and author Edmund Burke once wrote:"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." This job isn't just what I do, it's who I am.
Devin: Is it worth it?
David: For every life we save? Damn right it is.
Derek: Absolutely it's worth it.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I can't imagine doing anything else.

Aaron: There are lots of ways that sons defeat their fathers.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I just keep getting PhDs.

Erin: This is your fifth victim, right?
Det. Vic Wolynski: Yes.
Erin: You should've called sooner.
Det. Vic Wolynski: I thought we had a handle on.
Erin: Apparently, not.
Jennifer: Ma'am.
[to Det. Wolynski]
Jennifer: Excuse me, sir.
Jennifer: [to Strauss] We need to work with these detectives.
Erin: I'm sorry?
Jennifer: We don't generally criticize them. It just really doesn't get us anything.
Erin: Are you saying it wouldn't be helpful if they contact us sooner?
Jennifer: Of course, it's always, you know, the sooner the better.
Erin: Right... And Agent Jareau, don't question me again.

Emily: Thank you all for getting back here so quickly. I got a call from Chief Wheeler at the New Orleans Police Department. They've requested our help. Garcia, go ahead.
Penelope: The Big Easy has its own big bad operating in its midst. Earlier today, police uncovered a mass grave inside a vandalized crypt.
Emily: Tremé Cemetery. Ten bodies in total were discovered by the groundskeeper this afternoon.
Penelope: Yeah. The bodies were buried and burned inside the secluded tomb that had been pried open. They are believed to have been placed there in the last few weeks. The tomb was off-limits due to some maintenance being done.

Jason: [about Det. Gordinksi suspecting Morgan is a serial killer] We're dealing with a desperate detective here. Three dead boys, no evidence at all. So he applies a profile directly to someone he already suspected. It's easy to get tunnel vision that way.
Dr. Spencer Reid: One begins to twist facts to suit theories instead of instead of theories to suit facts. It's one of Sherlock Holmes' favorite quotes.

Dr. Spencer Reid: [Blake's phone beeps] You want me to...
Alex: No.
Dr. Spencer Reid: You want to talk about what's bothering you?
Alex: No. Nothing's bothering me.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Something's bothering you. I can always tell when you're bothered because you whisper lyrics to yourself. Hip-hop specifically. I thought it was odd at first, but then I remembered your dissertation was on the fluidity of metaphor. You seem to have a particular fondness for Nas.
Alex: Wow. How did you know?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Morgan made me listen to him when we started working together. He said anybody that can't quote Illmatic is ignorant. So, do you want to talk about it?
Alex: Uh, the text, it's from my husband.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Is that a bad thing?
Alex: He just wants to know if I've thought about his offer.
Dr. Spencer Reid: What offer?
Alex: To teach with him at Harvard.
Dr. Spencer Reid: How would you... Ah.
Alex: Yeah.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Tough call. What do you think you're gonna do?
Alex: When we got married, part of the attraction was that we were both obsessed with our work, and for a while that was okay.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Yeah, the last time we talked about it, you seemed to prefer it.
Alex: Oh, not anymore. I don't like going home to an empty house.
Dr. Spencer Reid: May I offer some advice?
Alex: Sure.
Dr. Spencer Reid: We need to turn around. You just passed the house.
Alex: Oh.
Dr. Spencer Reid: [car arrives at the house] That's not the advice, though. Blake, for the last ten years, this job has been my life. And then, for a few months, I had a taste of what you have. So, work. There's always work, and there'll always be work. What's rare is finding someone who makes us happy.

Dr. Spencer Reid: [voiceover as plane flies] "If it is a miracle, any sort of evidence will answer, but if it is a fact, proof is necessary." Mark Twain.
Aaron: Victimology is very similar. Blonde-haired, blue-eyed teenage girls.
[looks at photos]
Jennifer: We believe they were each abducted near public transportation stops.
Emily: [holds up photo] When was this photo taken?
Derek: Beth was caught on a bank surveillance camera three hours before she disappeared; that's a recent photo of Abby.
Emily: So, she wasn't found in the same clothes she was abducted in.
David: Maybe he changed them because hers were burned by the sulfuric acid.
Dr. Spencer Reid: It's possible. Sulfuric acid can turn human flesh into soap.
[JJ's face as Reid is talking is shown as affected due to their conflict]
Aaron: Garcia, any recent similar cases in the surrounding area?
Penelope: [on laptop] Actually, yes. Two months ago, a prostitute and a runaway were both found raped and killed and they had stab wounds to their eyes.
Jennifer: So maybe he practiced on high-risk victims first.
Derek: And then advanced to chemical enucleation.
Jennifer: Isn't that a rare paraphilia?
Emily: Well, the chemical part is. It would exacerbate the pain.
David: Like Ed Kemper, he's probably practicing on surrogates, before going after the real object of his rage.
Aaron: Dave, you and I will talk to the parents. Morgan and Prentiss, go to the disposal sites. JJ, you and Reid to the abduction sites.
[JJ and Reid's faces reflect their feelings about the orders]

Luke: So that's how he went from socially awkward to socially skilled. The drugs.
Dr. Tara Lewis: That makes sense. His inhibitions would be lowered and he'd be emboldened.
Stephen: But repeated use could mean addiction and a higher tolerance, so he would need increasing larger doses.
David: His mother was trying to help him, but she may have unlocked the psychopath in him instead.
Emily: MDMA is supposed to enhance sexuality. If Nancy Santiago was his first victim and he was high when he killed her, that must have made quite an impression.
Dr. Tara Lewis: And since it's never as good as the first time, he's probably been chasing that dragon ever since.
Stephen: He probably needs to be under the influence himself to complete the experience.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah, but if that was him in the alley with Nancy Santiago's body, then why no sexual assault with his most recent victims?
Emily: Because MDMA can cause impotence.
Luke: Yeah. Maybe he can't sexually get off, and that only adds to his rage.
David: That's why he's been so violent. Torture is an outlet for that.

Jason: Have Garcia go through open files in Maryland, see if any of them involve this level of torture.
Derek: Got it.
Jason: Have her check the surrounding states, as well. If... the guy's a pro, why do jobs only close to home?
Derek: How far back do you want her to go?
Jason: At least ten years. Guy's no rookie.

Penelope: [visiting in the hospital] You look amazing!
Jennifer: No, I don't
Penelope: You know what? You look alive and that is freaking amazing!

David: [enters to interrogate a prisoner] Mr. Watson, sorry for the wait
Julio: I hope you all know I had to rearrange my entire schedule. I had back to back meetings and a conference call right after lunch
David: Well, we appreciate your understanding

Emily: How fast can you get us up to speed?
Jennifer: How fast can you sit down?

William: I just... I can't just sit around here helpless.
Jason: When you were first diagnosed with cancer, you could have given up. You didn't.
William: But there was an enemy... Something to fight.
Jason: Yeah, but... There's a ghost enemy. Sneaks in, ravages you before you even know it's there, and by the time you do know, you're already losing.

[going through a victim's finances]
Dr. Spencer Reid: 18 cars, 6 houses and 3 boats. Can you even boat in Dallas?

Penelope: One guy owns a bunch of shoe stores up and down the eastern seaboard
Jennifer: Is he married?
Penelope: Yeah, story of my life, Sunshine

Penelope: Well, my friends, you're heading to New Mexico, but pack your thermals, 'cause this case will make you go "brr"
[imitates cold shiver]

John: What is going on?
Shane: She's back.
[claps his hands seeing Garcia comes in]
Shane: Very nice... You... You've lost weight... You miss me?
Penelope: No.
Shane: Okay... Why don't you... prove it?
Penelope: [to Ethan] Hi.
Ethan: Hi.
Penelope: I'm going to kiss you.
Ethan: Okay.
Penelope: [after kissing Ethan] Thank you.
[to Shane]
Penelope: We have a lot to talk about.
Shane: Yes, we do.

Penelope: [playing poker] I'm in
David: Well, I think you're bluffing, so I will see your fuzzy pencil and raise you... from the Dominican Republic one Fuente Fuente Opus X
Penelope: I don't understand what we're betting. I don't smoke
David: 'Cause poker is not fun unless you have something on the line

Emily: Wait, you think she's only been dead for twenty-four hours?
M.E. Wong: Yeah, maximum.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, she went missing a week ago. That means he held her for several days.
Stephen: He didn't do that with his other victims. He abducted, killed, and dumped them all within a two day period.
Emily: Holding her means a lot more work for him.
M.E. Wong: Oh, he was busy, all right. He broke all her fingers and toes first. But the big breaks he saved for last.
Emily: So, he's a sadist who's learned how to prolong his pleasure by keeping her alive.
Dr. Tara Lewis: But the torture must mean something if he's willing to risk holding her.

Lily: Have you travelled much with your son?
Aaron: Not a lot, no
Lily: Have you ever wanted to just lock him away until the world is a safer place?
Aaron: Well, then he'd never get out!
Lily: Yeah

Emily: What is this on the floor?
Penelope: Uh, that. Oh, god. That is... the contents of Vanessa Campbell's stomach, which she... ralphed up.
Emily: And in the glass?
Penelope: According to the police report, it is salt and water.
Emily: Homemade emetic.
Penelope: E-what-what?
David: Quick and dirty cocktail, meant to induce vomiting.
Emily: Vanessa Campbell and her husband moved to a new address, they put locks on the doors, they took precautions. She even knew what to do if she was dosed again, and it still wasn't enough. That's what he gets out of it.
Aaron: Their fear. He wants them to know that no matter what, he can still get to them.

Agent: How effective are those press conferences?
David: Incredibly
Agent: Then why haven't we heard from him?
David: A bond like this takes years to develop. We're not going to break it in a few hours

Dr. Spencer Reid: It's another spy whose cover is LR.
Emily: [in Reid's flashback] Lauren Reynolds is dead.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Lauren Reynolds is dead.
Aaron: What?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Lauren Reynolds is dead. Prentiss said that on a phone call 17 days ago. But her intonation wasn't surprise or grief. It was like a mantra, like she was reminding herself. Lauren Reynolds, LR.
Derek: She left her badge and gun? Why would she do that?
Dr. Spencer Reid: That doesn't make sense. Why run? We're her family. We can help.
David: Doyle's killing families. She's not married, not close to relatives. He was ready to wipe us out. She ran to protect us.

Aaron: [opening, voiceover] French novelist Jean Giraudoux said, "I'm not afraid of death. It's the stake one puts up in order to play the game of life."

Benjamin: Do not fear. We are on the side of the righteous.
Emily: Where's Lunde?
Benjamin: It wasn't us.
Emily: What? You can't shoot it out with the cops! You have children here.
Benjamin: I didn't start this.

Aaron: [picks up his mobile] Hotchner
Penelope: Who's the answer to all your dreams?
Aaron: I'm gonna put you on speaker
Penelope: Oh, you completely suck!

Emily: So this is the metal detector you had at the legion hall?
Sheriff: Mm-hmm.
Emily: And you made all the truthers walk through it.
Sheriff: Yep.
Emily: And then after that, you brought it back here to the police station, you haven't touched it since?
Sheriff: Mm-mm.
Emily: Sheriff, why didn't you tell us you were gonna do that?
Sheriff: You told us you didn't want to spook the truthers. You also told us the killer might show up, so this was for our protection. Can you tell me I was wrong?
Dr. Tara Lewis: No, Sheriff, you weren't wrong, but it does beg the bigger question: how the hell did Doug get a gun through that thing?
Sheriff: I was hoping you could answer that. You all being the geniuses with this investigation.

Penelope: The police recovered all three girls' phones in the woods. And you know how teens and myself spend way too much time on our screens? Well, the breakdown on the lab report from the girls' cell phones suggests a surefire way to get us all to stop. Please look at that report on your tablets.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Fentanyl, as in the opioid derivative?
Penelope: Yeah, trace elements were found on all three screens. Now, the medical patch it comes in knocks you out instantaneously.
Emily: Wait, hold up. Full stop. Let's retrace the girls' timeline. They went to a party, then somehow the unsub manages to get his hands on all three of the girls' phones to lace them?
Matt: He could have been at the party.
Emily: But then he'd have to time that out with when they went into the woods. No one's that good. Factor this in now: you're a teenage girl. You keep your cell phone on you at all times. Who would you maybe hand it over to?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Your best friend.

David: There wasn't a baby last time.
Luke: Guess he showed some kind of mercy.
David: You won't say that when you see what he did in there.
Luke: But why is Search and Rescue here?
David: Good question.

Detective: And I don't know why you made me so mad.
Alex: Because I'm your sister. It's normal for siblings to resent each other.
Detective: Okay, what is that? What, is that your profile of me? Resent?... Look, I don't resent you, Alex. I miss you.
Alex: You sure have a funny way of showing it.
Detective: ...You know, after Danny died, you just left. And then with mom, it's like you just stopped coming around altogether. It's like here you are, my big sister, and you just bailed.
Alex: I couldn't stay here, Scott.
Detective: I know. You know what? Trust me, I get it, I figured it out. But the funny thing is, here you are this hotshot linguist... and you can never say anything. You never call, you never write... nothing.

Dr. Spencer Reid: He strangled 7 women in the 1980's, stopped for 18 years and began again, suffocating. 10% of all violent crime are caused by strangulation. It only takes 11 pounds of pressure to fully incapacitate your victim and if you hang on for at least 50 seconds they will never recover

Penelope: Senarak is like the color beige. Not that I don't *like* the color beige, except it's the color I look bad in.

Matt: There's plenty of evidence of this woman in the van. Just no DNA and no prints.
Jennifer: Okay, what about her belongings?
Dr. Spencer Reid: We have clothes and blankets.
Luke: A small jewelry box.
Matt: Uh, some toiletries.
Jennifer: And this bouquet. Why would someone keep dead, rotting flowers?
Dr. Spencer Reid: It could be of personal significance, an emotional attachment that overrides his compulsion for cleanliness.
Jennifer: Okay, did the CSUs find any prints or DNA on the plastic wrapping?
Luke: No, but the wrapping did have a label that led to a flower shop. The CSUs followed up but came up empty-handed.
Matt: That's because they're not Penelope.
[dialing his phone]
Matt: Garcia, we need your help.
Penelope: Bring it.

Jennifer: Is he okay?
Luke: Yeah. I mean, he's... he's in one piece. I mean, I'm not sure he recognizes us.
Stephen: That could be the drugs.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Would a cognitive help?
Luke: I really think we're a little far off for that right now. Um... he definitely didn't recognize Scratch's name. But he wrote the name of his local contact, Rosa Medina, on his arm. I just sent the pic to Garcia. He says that she's a doctor.
Dr. Tara Lewis: So his short-term is coming back, but it's limited. It sounds like his long-term is still a mess.
Penelope: Okay, this definitely reads chicken scratch, but it's... oh, there are a lot of Rosa Medinas in Mexico.
Stephen: Well let's start with women in Houston and Brownsville, and then cross them with Mexican citizens.
Penelope: Got it.

Dr. Spencer Reid: Mr. Garner, a fisher king wound cannot be healed by somebody else. It's... it's not a wound of the body. It's a wound of the memory, a wound of the mind. It's... it's a wound that only you can find, and a wound that only you can heal.
Randall: Just ask the question.
Dr. Spencer Reid: There's only one question that matters, Mr. Garner. There's only one really important question. Can you forgive yourself?

Emily: [Walking in, Luke is observing the interrogation of the unsub] What's the word?
Luke: Two words actually: "Lost Dog"

Kane: Charles Mulgrew is his real name. Charles Mulgrew. His mother was five months pregnant when she showed up at our doorstep. He turned out to be one of the smart ones. Amazing memory that kid had. Anything he read, he could repeat back to you. And he did. Mouthy little son of a bitch.
Derek: Why'd he leave the ranch?
Kane: When he was 17, a couple of our young girls came to me and said that he'd been messing with them.
Derek: You mean sexually?
Kane: Yes, sir, I do. Now, don't get me wrong. I'm a Libertarian. But... those little girls were too young for a 17 year old to be messing with.
Derek: So you kicked him out for that?
Kane: Yes, sir. I did. His mother took him to Kentucky. Hadn't heard anything from him for years. And then when he finally showed up again, he said his mother had died, he found God, and he wanted to come home.
Derek: How does a kid like that get rid of you?
Kane: One day he came to me and said God told him that I should leave the ranch. I said if God felt that way, God can tell me himself. He put a gun to my head and said "He just did." Took me twenty years to build that ranch. I'll do anything I can to help you send that ungrateful son of a bitch straight to hell.

Emily: Local law enforcement has been treating these as burglaries gone wrong, but...
David: The "gone wrong" part could have been easily avoided.
Emily: Exactly. Straight-up burglary, the unsub would have made sure the homes were unoccupied first.
Dr. Tara Lewis: And he wouldn't have wasted time with drownings and cinder blocks. He would have been in and out.
Matt: Yeah, it's pretty obvious the unsub wanted these occupants dead.
Emily: We've got a long flight ahead of us. Wheels up in thirty.

Dr. Spencer Reid: [opening quotation] T.S. Eliot wrote "This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang, but with a whimper."

Bruce: They're gone. My girls are gone. I need your help.

Aaron: She can buy a gun that easily?
Det. Yarbough: This is Texas!

Jennifer: Okay, two more of the initial ten victims have been identified. Twenty-eight year old dentist Tyler Roberts and teen runaway Heather Pineda. According to missing person reports and the timeline the M.E. sent over, they're most likely victims number four and five.
Dr. Tara Lewis: This guy's victimology is all over the place. I mean, he's bouncing back and forth between the vulnerable and working professionals.
Dr. Spencer Reid: These may all be victims of opportunity, but there's a measure of compassion to these kills. It doesn't feel random.
Matt: Yeah, he doesn't want them to suffer. It's almost like he's putting them to sleep.
Luke: Or putting them out of their misery.

Dr. Spencer Reid: Has anyone vetted them?
David: Garcia's doing a separate check on police and security staff.
Ashley: Why?
David: Law enforcement and security are the kind of jobs that would attract this UnSub.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Dennis Rader, BTK, was a compliance officer in Park City, Kansas. Kenneth Bianchi, one of the Hillside Stranglers, worked as a security guard in California and Washington.
David: Psychopaths love official jobs and uniforms.

Aaron: [opening quotation, voiceover] "Fate is not satisfied with inflicting one calamity." - Roman author Publilius Syrus.

Penelope: [answering the telephone] . Overtime shift, Penelope speaking!

Derek: Garcia, baby girl, please tell me something I wanna hear.
Penelope: You're a statuesque god of sculpted chocolate thunder.
Derek: How about something I don't already know.
Penelope: I have a sweet tooth?

Emily: Hey Garcia, you normally call Morgan about these kinds of things. Is everything okay?
Penelope: God I hate profilers!
Emily: Okay, come on, tell me!
Penelope: I met this guy at the coffee shop I go to every day...
Emily: Right! Got it
[Hangs up, walks to Derek]
Derek: What?
Emily: When a woman tells a man about her feelings, she doesn't want him to fix her. She wants him to shut up and listen!

Penelope: I've got my crime shovel, I'll keep digging
David: Any luck with the tattoo?
Penelope: Eh, sort of... I managed to tease out the symbols using a healing algorithm, and I put that through the national bio medical center, but there's nothing. Actually there's nothing in any conventional database. And it's a good thing for all of us that I am fluent in unconventional ones, which I am go have a look at now. Goodbye

David: I'll stay and help them however I can and then come up, two or three days max
Joy: Don't worry about it. The lake isn't going to dry up all of a sudden. Just take all the time you need
David: You're sure?
Joy: Yes, absolutely! We're gonna be fine, Dad!
[pause]
Joy: You're there?
David: I... I'm sorry! Whenever I hear someone say "Dad", I start looking around to see who they are talking to!
Joy: Well, get used to it, Dad!

Emily: [at the crime scene] Unsub entered on the second floor through the cut screen.
Jennifer: He had to be physically fit.
Emily: He knew the house well enough to know this was the room to enter.
Dr. Spencer Reid: He went straight to the parents' room. He wanted to remove the greatest threat first.
Emily: Based on the bullet trajectory, he was standing here at the foot of the bed when he fired. He wanted to stare at them both before firing.
Jennifer: And that woke Bridget up. She was attempting to flee when the unsub shot her.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Did he enjoy watching her terror and panic, or was it inexperience on his part? Bridget's scream is probably what woke Kevin.
Jennifer: So the unsub heads down the hallway, where Kevin is coming out of his bedroom.
Kevin: [flashback] Mom? Dad?
Jennifer: And he runs into the unsub.

Casey: I wanted it to be him.
Emily: Excuse me?
Casey: The killer. I wanted it to be Leland. Because if it was, it meant he was alive, he's always been alive, breathing the same air I've been breathing. Is that wrong?
Emily: You loved your son. Let's leave it at that.

Jennifer: [opening quote] "Death is the mother of beauty, hence from her alone shall comes fulfillment of our dreams and our desires" - Wallace Stevens

Yvonne: Wait.
Cindi: I can't talk to you.
Malcolm: No, no. It's okay. I trust you.
Yvonne: Baby... let me just... let me just look at you.
[finds a bruise on Cindi's neck]
Yvonne: Oh! What has he done to you?
Cindi: He loves me.
Yvonne: You call that love?
Cindi: I have to go. I have to make him dinner.
Yvonne: [pause] That's not her. That is not my daughter.

Emily: Helos are on the roof, warming up. Let's go!

Dr. Spencer Reid: Garcia, is the resin biodegradable?
Penelope: As a matter of fact, yes. How is it you know everything?

Dr. Spencer Reid: Tardive dyskinesia.
Derek: Once more for those of us who don't have an encyclopedic memory?

David: Where are we on friends-and-family interviews?
Emily: Butlers had no family in the area, and everyone who knew them volunteered to come in. We've asked the local police to administer a polygraph to all interviewees.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Standard operating procedure in all child abduction cases. Anyone who says "no" stands out. Who said no?
Emily: Nobody. We'll vet the interviewees when we land, but for now, let's consider other theories.

Penelope: So, remember that old expression "Dont go swimming while tethered to a cinder block"?
[no reaction]
Penelope: No? Larry and Wanda Robbins from Ramona, California. Newlyweds. They were found dead last night in their backyard pool. Wanda was shot once in the chest. Larry was gagged and drowned because of that cinder block thing I mentioned earlier.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Anything stolen from the house?
Emily: Jewelry was missing from Wanda's vanity. This is the latest in a string of backyard pool murders in Ramona over the last two weeks.
Penelope: Oh, that's my part. Victim number one, Ben Stiles, 82 year old widower. He was found at the bottom of his pool, tied to a cinder block like Larry Robbins. Six days later, victim number two, Bert Schofield; divorced, lived alone, and as you can see, same kind of awfulness.
Jennifer: Were their houses also burglarized?
Penelope: Yeah. Well, Ben Stiles' was. His coin collection was missing. I'm not sure about Bert Schofield.

Dr. Spencer Reid: I think I can do it. I can get her to cooperate.
Aaron: How?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Right now, two alpha males are in there attacking her marriage. She'll react the same way to anyone challenging her husband's dominance. But I'm not a threat. I think she'll listen to me.

Jennifer: Hey, uh, I'm so sorry Rossi blew up.
Luke: It's nothing, all right? Look, once I was called a worthless piece of shit who was a disgrace to the Army uniform he was wearing.
Jennifer: Basic training?
Luke: My grandmother. Yeah, she was pretty bitter after Poppi died.
Jennifer: Okay. Uh, yeah, that's... that's kind of my point, actually. We all wear grief differently, even Rossi. But it's almost been a year, and he still won't talk to any of us about it. It's not healthy. He can't keep it bottled up like this, and we cannot be the punching bags anymore.
Luke: [his phone chimes] Hey. About time. We got the neighbor's security footage. Took twice as long as it would've taken Penelope. No disrespect to the remote Garcias.
Jennifer: We should call them by their names.
Luke: It's been three years. Who are we kidding? We're not learning their names.

Derek: All right, so we got an unsub who's picking his victims at random, sedates them, then bleeds them dry. He's not drinking the blood. What the hell's he doing with it?

David: So, we know this unsub uses the victims' own cars as his dumpsite
Dr. Spencer Reid: Technically, it's not a dumpsite, it's transportation disposal modality

Delivery: Emily Prentiss?
Emily: Yes.
Delivery: [giving her an envelope] You have been served.
Emily: [he turns to leave] Hey, wait. How'd you find me here?
[he just laughs]

Emily: What have you got, Garcia?
Penelope: Okay, my fearless, furry friends

Aaron: We're looking for two men. Probably white, given the neighborhoods that they hit, mid to late twenties, intelligent, and organized.
Derek: These are career criminals. One or both has done hard time, but neither presents as a convict. They would appear clean-shaven, well dressed...
Emily: Neighborly. This helps them talk their way into the homes. They may also be using a ruse.
Lt. Nellis: What kind of ruse?
Aaron: Given that the invasions have taken place in the evening, it could be anything. Could be door to door sales, person in distress, car trouble.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Uh, Derrick Todd Lee used a tape of a baby crying to get women to open their doors in Baton Rouge. Never underestimate their creativity.
Emily: These men share a very tight bond, and a mutual compulsion to kill, but their signatures reveal two very distinct personalities.
Aaron: One brutalizes the parents. This is the dominant one. Sadistic, remorseless, extremely volatile.
Emily: The other prefers a needle. His injections are consistent with an angel of death. He's more withdrawn, sensitive, and he has a warped sense of mercy.

Penelope: Guys. Bad news.
Emily: A fourth victim already?
Penelope: Paul McEntee. Arlington, Virginia, just south of here. He's an accountant, lived alone. I sent all the files to your tablet and phones.
Emily: Any luck with WITSEC?
Penelope: Not yet. And I've been scouring any pertinent FBI databases. Nothing there, either.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Two kills in less than a day. He's speeding up.
Emily: Well, if our unsub's a hit man, he's moving fast to avoid detection. He might be near the end of his list.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I'm still not convinced he is a hit man. If he's a vigilante or moral enforcer, the shortening cooling-down period could be a sign he's losing control.
Emily: Spence, you, Dave, and Tara go to Bethesda. Luke and I will head to the M.E.'s office, take a look at the latest victim. I'll have Matt and JJ go to Arlington.

Joshua: What are you doing?
Penelope: Trying to make this place a little less analog... Sorry, I forget my hacker jokes aren't funny.

Penelope: [alone, scared in a car] Nervous whistle. Stop it. Everything is... everything is cool, Garci.
[takes a deep breath]
Penelope: Gorgeous tech-kitten found in lonely, dark parking lot. Throat slashed, ear to ear... horrific... tragic... with the very files of one of the most prolific serial killers ever. Tonight he remains at large... the blood of Quantico finest
[Jason opens car door]
Penelope: Oh God! Oh my God!
Jason: Drive
Penelope: You're right, drive! Yes drive! Drive where?
Jason: Just drive
Penelope: Just drive, just drive
[and drives away]

Luke: What happens with us?
Rebecca: [to Tara and JJ] reassigned,
[to Luke and Emily]
Rebecca: reassigned,
[to Rossi]
Rebecca: retired

David: [Profiling the unsub] Either way, they're calculating and dispassionate.
Penelope: And no appreciation for Chenille throw pillows.

Detective: What are you smiling at? You're going to jail.
Connor: In jail, they treat cop killers like kings.
Detective: First you gotta see how we treat 'em at the station.

Emily: [searching Tara's apartment] This is almost exactly like my first apartment in Georgetown. My mom wanted me to stay on campus, but I was determined to make it, so... I waitressed on the weekends to swing it.
David: You must have been a hell of a waitress to swing an apartment in Georgetown.
Emily: No, I sucked. I only got by 'cause my mom put money in my account every week and we both pretended I didn't know.

Derek: You got here fast.
Det. Benning: [shrugs] Detroit's not that far.
Derek: Did you bring the case files?
Det. Benning: I got 35 open missings.
Derek: That's all?
Det. Benning: That's not enough?
Derek: [indicating the shoes found next to the pig pen] 89 pairs.
Det. Benning: 89?
Derek: So far.
Det. Benning: Oh, God!
Derek: I don't think God's been out here in a long time.

David: Sydney Xavier Pearson. A name like that didn't come with manners? A gentleman walks a lady to the door.
Syd: Mm, she wasn't much of a lady.
David: Watch your mouth.
Syd: The girl was horny, man. I mean, she practically begged me for it.
David: That's a bunch of bull...
Derek: [bursting in with a polygraph result] The son of a bitch passed. How? How'd you do it?
David: Little bastard believes his lies are the truth. Takes a few deep breaths and passes.
Syd: Old-timer's kind of dramatic, isn't he? You know, it's actually much simpler than that. You see, uh, I didn't actually do anything to her.

Derek: Dammit, Reid, I said don't take the vest off.

David: Morgan, obsessional crimes are your specialty.
Derek: Well, there's two kinds of obsessional offenders that would send gifts to survivors. Sadists, who want to make the families keep reliving the crime, or guilt-laden offenders, desperately trying to find some type of way to apologize.
David: Sadists usually use something they know will remind the family of the person or the crime. Jewelry, newspaper clippings.
Emily: These don't look like the kind of things you would send to inflict pain on someone.
David: So, guilt-laden.
Emily: You know, they actually look like the kind of thing a child would send.
Derek: Okay. Well, it's rare, but an unsub who feels this much guilt sometimes commits the crime unintentionally. They tend to be developmentally disabled, extremely low IQ offender, and generally, well, they're physically large and they're very strong. Strong enough to hurt somebody accidentally.
Emily: Like Lennie in "Of Mice and Men".

Jason: You have the sign-in sheets?
Jennifer: Yeah.
Jason: Garcia standing by to do background checks on 'em all?
Jennifer: Yeah. I've got a deputy waiting to take me back to the station. I'm gonna fax her as soon as I get there.
Jason: Good. This type of unsub can't resist injecting himself into a show like this. He's here with us.

Lee: You're trying to make me look stupid. I'm not stupid.
Colby: No one said you were stupid. You just... You got to keep practicing.
Lee: I know a better way to practice.
Colby: It's not time.
Lee: It's time when I say it's time. I want to go out. Take me out.

David: I've gotta hand it to her. Judith's not budging.
Dr. Spencer Reid: She's committed to protecting her husband.
David: And their marriage.
Alex: "We're rebuilding step by step"? Interesting choice of words.
David: Oh, I've heard those many times before... Marriage counseling.

Jason: You know why you lasted longer in this job than I ever did? You never really let the unsub get inside your head.
David: Is that your way of saying you were better than me, Jason?
Jason: You tell me. I'm inside your head.
[pointing to a composite sketch of Lynch]
Jason: I'm the unsub. What do I want?
David: You know, I never liked your games.
Jason: I know. Remember? You and me? My yin to your yang? We were like Martin and Lewis.

Derek: [opening quotation, voiceover] "Man usually avoids attributing cleverness to somebody else, unless it's an enemy." - Albert Einstein.

David: We appreciate you coming in, Sheryl.
Sheryl: I don't like being back here. I moved away ten years ago, took my name off of everything, just to avoid having to deal with this again.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Because there was no trial, you were never fully debriefed. We need to go over the details of your interactions with Ferell.
Sheryl: I've been doing everything I can to try to forget. It's been a living hell. I'm not sure I can be of much help.
[behind her, out in the bullpen, Luke and Matt lead Ferell in]
Sheryl: All of a sudden, I got the chills.

Jennifer: Both were technically single. They could have been looking to meet new people. Maybe that was his in.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Raymond Fernandez used to place personal ads in the newspaper. He would seduce and rob the woman who answered them.
Jennifer: The unsub could be a lonely hearts killer.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Maybe he hunts his victims in places where singles hang out. You know - bars, nightclubs, chess tournaments... .

Aaron: Here's Cipro. Everybody needs to take it before we go
Dr. Linda Kimura: We don't know if it is effective against this strain, but it's something
Emily: This is really happening
Aaron: We knew this could happen, we've done our homework, we've prepared for this. This is it
David: Cent'anni! May you live a 100 years!

Detective: Gentlemen. Detective Sanchez.
Derek: Agent Morgan, agent Rossi.
Detective: Appreciate the help. Never seen anything like this before.
David: Consider yourself fortunate.

David: They say it's never as good as your first time. The truth is... the first time sucks. You don't know what you're doing. You're fumbling around. It's awkward. It does get better. I promise.

Erin: You want to arrest James Stanworth? Are you out of your mind?
Derek: He's got motive. Mary Rutka had a tape. She was blackmailing him.
Erin: It was a hooded figure. You can't prove it was him on that videotape.
David: He fits the profile, Erin.
Erin: Forgive me, but your profile sounds like a self-made man, not the psychopath you claim he is.
Derek: We said he'd be destructive. In 1998 alone, he fired 6,000 people from one of his companies. Some of those employees took their own lives. That is the type of power and devastation that he enjoys.
Erin: Hearsay. Slander if you're not careful.
Derek: Ma'am, he got into politics to be hard on crime. He would have access to keep tabs on Don Sanderson.
Erin: And now you're sounding as paranoid as Don Sanderson. You cannot accuse a man without a shred of physical evidence.
Derek: Mary Rutka had skin under her nails. Maybe she left a mark.
Erin: And you cannot arrest a man based on the possibility of a scratch.
David: We can't arrest this man. That's what you mean. Don't pull any punches now, Erin.
Erin: You don't understand what the politics are, do you, Dave? You never have.
David: No, I do. I just don't care.
Derek: Ma'am, all due respect, but we have an innocent man in our custody, and the killer is still out there. It just might be James Stanworth.
Erin: You don't have enough proof. The BAU functions without you. Don't push it.

David: Garcia?
Penelope: Yes sir, I'm here for you, sir.
David: Cochrane University in Ohio. What's the out-of-state tuition?
Penelope: Eh... Yikes! $37,000 annually. That's not taken in consideration books, cost of living, ramen, beer kegs, bean bags chairs, et cetera.

Dr. Spencer Reid: [to Detective Spicer] Evil can't be scientifically defined. It's an illusory moral concept that doesn't exist in nature. Its origins and connotations have been inextricably linked to religion and mythology. This offender has shown no signs of any belief. I'm... I'm Spencer Reid.

Jason: [voiceover] Ralph Waldo Emerson said "In order to learn the import lessons of life, one must each day surmount a fear."

Aaron: [closing quote] Richard Bach wrote: "The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other's life."

Emily: He started killing shortly after you were married?
Helen: Yeah.
David: And you never suspected this other life he was leading?
Helen: No. People only see what they want to see, I guess.
Emily: Where will you go now, Helen?
Helen: Put in for a transfer for a job in Missouri. Don't know anybody there; people don't know me. It's a fresh start.
David: What about family?
Helen: My family don't want to know me. They couldn't understand why I'd stand by Rod after everything that he done. As far as they're concerned, I'm just as bad as him.

Jennifer: A guy who works for a paramilitary company probably thinks he's invincible.
Derek: I don't know. He knew something about his wife. The way he smiled at me before he died, he was smug. It's like he was trying to say "You're not gonna find her in time."
Agent: He'd rather die than let her live.
Derek: It's the classic psychology of the narcissistic abuser. You know, we may be looking at two unsubs.
Jennifer: He hired someone to kill her.

Derek: You didn't do anything? You gave me some pretty graphic details.
Syd: Oh, don't get me wrong. My DNA is... all over that girl, but, uh, that doesn't mean I killed her. I got pictures.
Derek: What?
Syd: On my cell. You want to see?
David: You're giving us consent?
Derek: [calling to a cop in the hall] Give me this guy's property! Now!

Emily: [opening quote] "Holding on to anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die" - Anonymous

Matt: Well, midnight is not a good time for most adictives

Emily: [voiceover] Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive. -Sir Walter Scott

Sean: You're either a dead man or a cop. Which one is it?
David: Right now, I'm just an old friend

Alex: [closing quote] "Alone we can do so little, together we can do so much" - Helen Keller

David: What's this?
Dr. Spencer Reid: It's the pattern I've been looking for. The unsubs hid their tracks with the mothers, but they weren't so careful with the abandoned babies.
David: Did you find more children?
Dr. Spencer Reid: DNA-wise, no, but deductively, yes. I gathered all the records for all infants who entered into foster care in a two week window following each mother's death. Then I narrowed it down to babies that were abandoned at churches. This is where the guesswork begins. Monica Winmar's daughter was abandoned at a Presbyterian church. Let's assume the unsub, or the wife at least, is Presbyterian. That means all other unwanted children are gonna be left at the same denomination, right? That narrows it down to three babies left at three different Presbyterian churches all within this twenty-mile radius. This is where they live.
David: These kids you deduced to... have you looked at their files?
Dr. Spencer Reid: No. Right now I've only been tracking churches. Why?
David: Because you just uncovered another pattern.
[cut to Hotch in New Mexico]
Aaron: Yeah, we're packing up now. We can be in Phoenix in about two hours. Are you sure about this?
David: The names of the babies Reid found tells us everything. Lisa, Elizabeth, Amanda.
Aaron: We profiled there'd be a type they'd keep and a type they'd put into foster care.
David: They're keeping the boys.

Dr. Spencer Reid: [searching Andy's room] That's interesting.
Jennifer: What?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I don't see any sneakers. I mean, almost every ten year old boy has a pair, right?
Jennifer: I... guess they're somewhere else in the house, but mom seems like a neat freak.
Dr. Spencer Reid: What if Andy's wearing them?
Jennifer: That means he would have had time to put his shoes on and leave.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Which means he was most likely coaxed out by someone he knew.

Derek: [closing quote] "There is a fellowship more quiet even than solitude and which rightly understood is solitude made perfect" - Robert Louis Stevenson

[first lines]
Rod: [speaking to a creaking tree] You wake me again tonight, it'll be a chainsaw for you!

Dr. Spencer Reid: Do you mind if we swing by a book store, I want to re-read Empty Planet before we meet with the author; I haven't read it since I was six.
Derek: Six? I was still riding my big wheeler at six!
Dr. Spencer Reid: Do you mind, it'll only take ten minutes.
Jason: To buy it or to read it?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Uh, both, actually.

Penelope: [voiceover] Ralph W. Sockman said, Nothing is so strong as gentleness, and nothing is so gentle as real strength.

Cat: We do deserve each other, by the way. You guessed right.
Dr. Spencer Reid: You lied, by the way. You were going to kill my mother regardless.
Cat: Yeah, I think you really liked hurting those men. And once you cross that line, you can't ever go back.
Dr. Spencer Reid: [kneeling down in front of her, he roughly removes his watch from her wrist] Watch me.

Jason: [opening quote, voiceover] "From the deepest desires often come the deadliest hate." - Socrates.

Aaron: Do you have a go bag?
Kate: Sir, I am like a Boy Scout: always prepared.

Derek: Reid, you getting a migraine?
Dr. Spencer Reid: No. No, I haven't had one of those for months, ever since I...

Aaron: Does she have a sealed juvie record?
Penelope: Why didn't I think of that? See, this is why you're the boss man and I am the minion who types things!

Aaron: We suggest that you think of this unsub not as a slasher but as an arsonist. Because the gratification he's getting isn't from the physical act of murder, but from the public's reaction to it.
Emily: Arsonists draw attention to themselves through the fires they set. The locations they choose are highly symbolic to them. While this unsub will never set an actual fire, he has the same psychosis as one who does.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Our unsub fits that model. His locations have been pillars of the community. The victims he picks aren't as important as the effect of killing them outside of your favorite restaurant or place of worship.
Derek: By picking locales with the highest visibility, he's creating the highest level of fear in that neighborhood, which reinforces his feeling of power.
Detective: Yeah, but arsonists don't set out to hurt people. This guy clearly does.
Derek: That's true. And this unsub definitely falls in the category of sociopath.
Emily: His victims are there only to achieve his goal. He doesn't have the ability to empathize with them. To him, they're just... tools for him to use, no different than a can of gasoline and a match.
David: But even how he kills tells us something. Slashing a throat is a messy, visual act. It's designed to create attention, just like a fire.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Arsonists are often mission based. They need to make sure their first fire has burnt out before they set another one. They're also highly disciplined and focused. If conditions aren't right to set a fire or, in this case, slash a throat, they'll move on.
Aaron: In addition to his need to kill, he has self-control. He has a short cooling off period because he's enjoying what he's doing. This in turn feeds his ego and keeps him covering his tracks.
David: This makes him even more dangerous. If he gets frustrated, encounters too many obstacles, or suffers a blow to his narcissistic ego, he could go on an all-out rampage.

Penelope: I can't be my usual sparkly self when you are where you are.

Jason: You havin' fun?
Dr. Spencer Reid: [dully] Yes. Definitely. I'm definitely having fun.
Jason: Make a wish?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Can I take this hat off?
Jason: I wouldn't.
Jennifer: Hey, Spence. First piece for the birthday boy.
Dr. Spencer Reid: [to Gideon] Do you know she's the only person in the whole world who calls me 'Spence.'

Derek: We're not working a case, why call us to a crime scene?
David: I was hoping you knew

David: Pretty public spot for a dump site
Dr. Spencer Reid: You know, technically I think it would qualify more as a disposal site. You don't leave a body at a Merry Go Round out of convenience

Special: Reid, you know this is not your responsibility?
Dr. Spencer Reid: It is. I can't explain.
Special: Well try me.
Dr. Spencer Reid: He knows I understand him.
Special: Of course you do. You're a profiler.
Dr. Spencer Reid: It's more than that.
Special: How?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I know what it's like to be afraid of your own mind.

David: Any idea who's behind it?
Penelope: Best guess is that's online collective known as Star Chamber. There one of several justice oriented groups that sprung up in the wake of the Steubenville rape case
Alex: Star Chamber? Interesting name
Dr. Spencer Reid: It's derived from the 17th century British court designed to ensure fair enforcement of laws against the rich and powerful
Penelope: Actually according to my research they named it that because it's also the name of a mediocre, yet awesome Michael Douglas movie from 1983

Jennifer: [opening, voiceover] Queen Elizabeth I said, "The past cannot be cured."

Jason: Everett Lynch didn't kill you because he looked in your eyes and saw something, of his father.
David: Sons kill their fathers, Jason.
Jason: Sure, they do, but not typically if they still have issues to work out.
David: Lynch's dad is dead. His name was Douglas Moore. He was an insurance man. Lynch's mother was trying to grift him and got careless and got pregnant. The guy drowned in a boating accident.
Jason: Drowned, huh? Kind of like how Lynch would describe Grace drowning.
David: Oh, look, the Moore story checked out.
[a thought strikes him]
David: Unless... Roberta lied to me. And if she lied to me, she probably lied to her son, and if he found out, he'd want to find his father, don't you think?
[turning around, he sees Gideon is gone]

Penelope: [Sets herself behind her computer] All right, Voltron, sound off

Jennifer: Whoever did this will be brought to justice.
Police: You'd better get to him before I do.

Aaron: Nobody remembers the victims, everybody remembers the killer. And that's exactly what happens when an agent puts the story ahead of the case.

Dr. Tara Lewis: Dr. Rhodes, I've had the opportunity to read some of your published work on behavioral therapy. And I'm quite sure when you started your practice, you did hope to alleviate your patients' suffering.
Dr. Elizabeth Rhodes: It was my hope, and it is my accomplishment as well, Dr. Lewis.
Dr. Tara Lewis: But not for Eddie. He came to you a year ago after his father died in prison, desperate for help. And I get it; you were still raw about Robin's death being ruled an accident. But instead of easing his pain, you selfishly twisted it to gratify your own need for revenge.
Dr. Elizabeth Rhodes: No. I really did no such thing.
Jerome: He's obviously one of those paranoid schizophrenic types who is targeting Robin's assailants all on his lonesome.
Dr. Tara Lewis: We both know that's not why he's killing these men, don't we?
Dr. Elizabeth Rhodes: One reason he may be killing is pure genetics. It's in the blood.
Jerome: You've got nothing to arrest my client, so we're done here. And if I find out you guys are following my client without probable cause, I'm going to sue your asses off.

Emily: [at the end of day] Anyway, it's late or really early. We'll get back at this in a couple of hours

Jennifer: [Yawns] Oh, I'm sorry
Derek: Wow, kids really are game changers, aren't they?
Jennifer: Yeah, how is it that I wake up more exhausted than when I went to bed?
Derek: Why don't you try to get some shut-eye before we land?
Jennifer: Oh, trust me, I tried! It's not happening
[looks at her phone]
Derek: Hey Rossi, I remember Reid told me once, eh, I think it went something like this:
[mimics Reid]
Derek: "Hey Morgan, you know electronics, they emit a sleep depriving type of blue light that prevent you from falling asleep at night"
David: Yeah, I remember that. Actually it was more like, uhm
[mimics Reid]
David: "Studies show that we need between 7 and 9 hours of sleep a night"
[Both chuckle; they look at JJ who fell asleep]
David: Works like a charm!

Detective: Why don't we start with him? Eddie Parrish, Tasha Brooks' pimp. He calls himself Sweetness
Derek: Oh, come on now, that's Walter Paytons nickname! This is wrong

Dr. Spencer Reid: [closing quote] "True heroism is remarkably sober, very undramatic. It's not the urge to surpass others at whatever cost, but the urge to serve others at whatever cost" - Arthur Ashe

David: [to Professor Rothchild] Oh, and one more thing. I'm gonna be there when they strap you down for that lethal injection. And just before they hit the plunger, I'm gonna lean in real close and tell you to say hello to your scumbag brother.

Emily: [answers her mobile phone] What's it, Garcia?
Penelope: I think I've got the who, but I don't have the where

Jason: How long can you hold that lawyer off?
Aaron: Are you kidding? I was a prosecutor. I can hold him off for days.

Derek: Come here, come here.
Savannah: You know, that's why I blame you.
Derek: What, me?
Savannah: Yes. One more time turned into two more times, and now there's no way we're getting a table on such short notice.
Derek: Girl, look at you. Can you blame me? But as long as I'm with you, we can go anywhere you want... Oh, wait a minute. Hello, what are you doing here?
Penelope: Oh, my God.
Savannah: Penelope?
Penelope: Wow, it is so nice to finally meet you.
Savannah: You, too.
Derek: Hey, you must be Sam.
Sam: Sam I am. I've heard a lot about you.
Derek: Oh, not guilty. Not guilty.
Penelope: Look at you guys. You're literally flawless. You're like the live-action Ken and Barbie.
Sam: So where are you guys headed?
Derek: Well, we actually had a change of plans.
Sam: Same here.
Penelope: Is what's happening right now what I think is happening right now?
Savannah: Why, I believe so.
Penelope: This is our first double date.
Sam: In that case, after you.
Savannah: All right.
Derek: And after you, sir.

Derek: [closing quote] "There are times when the mind is dealt such a blow it hides itself in insanity. There are times when reality is nothing but pain and to escape that pain the mind must leave reality behind"- Patrick Rothfuss

David: Thanks for calling us.
Officer: A U.S. fed in our custody isn't something we see every day.
Emily: We appreciate you letting us talk to him. Have you gotten his tox screen panels back yet?
Officer: No.
Emily: You will need to expedite that. We have cause to believe that Agent Reid was drugged.
Officer: He was definitely high and driving like a maniac with $20,000 worth of heroin in his possession. Both of which put my officers at risk. You're in our jurisdiction. The rules are different here.

Dr. Spencer Reid: [rushing into the briefing room] Sorry I'm late.
David: I hope she was worth it.
Derek: [turning to look at Reid with a grin] I hope it was a she.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Sorry, I was at the movies.
David: Oh, really. Why don't you tell us what it was about?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Uh, I had to leave early, so I can't really...
[stops because of Rossi's look]

Deputy: So, your expertise is in serial killers, but, uh, this isn't normal, is it? Oh, he took hundreds of pictures. Isn't that OCD or something?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Who owns this property?
Deputy: It was old man Jarvis. He's been dead for years. Don't know if this is his or somebody buried it.
Dr. Tara Lewis: But this unsub would know this property was abandoned. Any obstruction at the door?
Deputy: Eh, some overgrowth, maybe a couple years' worth. But it is dusty. He hasn't been down here in a while.
Dr. Tara Lewis: [finding skeletal remains in a suitcase] I'm gonna need some help.

Derek: Hey, Reid, you got a statistic on arsonists?
Dr. Spencer Reid: 82% are white males between 17 and 27. Female arsonists are far less likely, their motive typically being revenge.
Derek: Sounds like our boy's a student.
Jason: Oh, don't be so sure. You rely too much on precedent, you never allow for the unexpected.

Aaron: Well, we got the Jeep right
Jason: And everything else wrong!

Dr. Daryl Wright: Remember when you made me pee in a cup, so you could test me?
Dr. Tara Lewis: You mean: my proudest moment as a wife? Yeah
Dr. Daryl Wright: Well, I cheated the test
Dr. Tara Lewis: All right Daryl, I'll bite: how'd you cheat?

Curtis: Hey, it's for you. It's yours. Keep it.
Eddie: You serious?
Curtis: Uh-huh.
Eddie: Yeah. Nice. You were part of my system and didn't even know it, huh?
Curtis: Well, you know what they say. The reverse side also has a reverse side.
Eddie: Yeah, whatever the hell that means.
Curtis: It means you're part of my system, too, Eddie.

David: [closing quotation] "People like to say that the conflict is between good and evil. The real conflict is between truth and lies." - Don Miguel Ruiz.

Jason: Albert Pine said "What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others and the world remains, and is, immortal."

Derek: All right, so tell us about blood drinkers, Reid
Dr. Spencer Reid: Human blood consumption, or clinical vampirism, is known as Renfield's syndrome. Named after the, eh, insect eating character in Bram Stoker's novel Dracula
Emily: Are they sadists?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Not necessarily. Pain to the victim is usually only a byproduct, blood is the focus. Renfield's syndrome is usually accompanied by varying levels of schizophrenia and occasionally more classic cannibalism, if the condition evolves
David: Classic cannibalism! Lovely job we have
Dr. Spencer Reid: I will say this: true cases are exceedingly rare
Jennifer: Uh, that's comforting. Sort of

David: What kind of knife did he use?
Albert: A sharp one

David: Yes, Mr. Zimmerman.
David: So, you have to go visit this guy every year to get the name of another victim.
David: That's right.
David: So, what was the special day of his choosing?

Hamilton: Normally the waitress has to pour me into a cab, not the other way around.
Regina: Oh, really? Well this is me.
Hamilton: I'm... I'm the SUV. I'm sorry. Listen, I know we just met. I can't... I can't let you drive like this.
Regina: Drive? I'm sleeping in this bitch. Don't be silly.
Hamilton: Lock your doors. A lot of... A lot of creeps out there. Okay?
Regina: Okay.
Hamilton: Well... Good night.
Regina: Good night. Hey. Do you have a cigarette?
Hamilton: Uh, yes, I do. Just don't tell my wife. I promised her I'd quit.
Regina: Okay.
Hamilton: Yeah.
Regina: It'll be our little secret.
Hamilton: Okay.
Regina: You know, I never knew why I hated that song so much. But tonight you helped me figure it out.
Hamilton: I did, huh?
Regina: Yeah, you did. That's the song you played when you raped me.
Hamilton: What?
Regina: [uses electroshock wand to him] I was hoping you'd comeback.
[uses it again]

Emily: [closing quotation] It's been said that Mark Twain once observed "History never repeats itself, but it often rhymes."

David: Last year, right here, we had a... very different celebration... of life... of love... and good people. This year, it's the, um... other side of that, because, well... that's what families do. It's been a hard year, but tonight... we celebrate a life well lived... well loved... To a good woman... an even better mother... To our friend... who I will miss very much.

Emily: Garcia, are you there?
Penelope: Yes, on every level of consciousness. How may I serve?

Lara: Is she...
James: She's one of them. An innocent will die before the wise, but a devil's wife will surely rise.

Dr. Spencer Reid: [opening quote] "God sometimes takes us into troubled waters, not to drown us, but to cleanse us" - unknown

Emily: [Calls] Garcia?
Penelope: Welcome to the request line at noon with Penny. What's your pleasure?

Michael: Look, I don't speak smart ass. So, if you got something to say to me?

Derek: [voiceover] It was once said that love is giving someone the ability to destroy you, but trusting them not to.

Jennifer: Hey, uh, have you talked to Tara about her case?
Luke: Mm, early days. Hard to say what's what. Unlike this case, which seems clear. Unsub chooses families with teenage daughters.
Jennifer: Except first time, he killed the daughter, and now he's abducting. It's a big jump in skill set to control a hostage.
Luke: That's assuming she's still alive. Has Rossi considered a team?
Jennifer: Well, he ruled it out earlier, but now that the unsub has taken a living victim, maybe.

Derek: Detective, I've seen kids missing for a decade, and their rooms look exactly the way they did the day that they left. Parents don't just pack up their kid's stuff and put 'em in boxes in the garage. Parents don't give up, ever.

Aaron: Nothing a stalker likes better than routine!

Jennifer: Okay, so I dug around his desk, I found a whole lot of articles in medical journals; no big surprise.
Stephen: [flipping through the journal she hands him] This is all about experimental medicine.
Penelope: Okay, experimental medicine makes sense. I... I got an e-mail from a librarian friend of mine from the FBI library. It looks like our boy wonder has been processing a lot with that beautiful brain of his, all having to do with alternative medicinal procedures for fighting Alzheimer's.
Jennifer: Well, he told me he was supplementing her meds with omega-3s and making sure she was eating a ton of leafy greens. But he said her prescriptions plus vitamins weren't enough. Maybe he took it to a new level.
Stephen: Because it takes years to pass the FDA guidelines, a lot of holistic medicine is practiced outside the United States.
Jennifer: [her phone chimes] Okay, they have landed and they are on the way to Spence. All right, well, let's start digging through these, see if we can find anything that can help.

Jennifer: [visiting Reid in prison] How are you doing?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I'm okay. I, uh... I'm really happy to see you. I just... I kind of wish you hadn't come. It's not a good idea.
Jennifer: Sorry. You're stuck with me. Garcia has us on shifts, and she of course took first dibs, but, uh, they needed her in the office for a case, so I was the lucky one.
Dr. Spencer Reid: A case? JJ, you should not be here.
Jennifer: The last time I saw you, I promised you would not be alone. I am just trying to keep up the best way I can.
Dr. Spencer Reid: What's the case?
Jennifer: What?
Dr. Spencer Reid: The case. I'm assuming you stayed behind unless it's local. Is it local?
Jennifer: No. New York. But... you really want to hear this?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Yeah. I'd... I'd love something to think about besides, you know, this.
Jennifer: Okay. Um... last night, they found the latest victim, which is the third in the last six weeks. He dumps them in alleys. All female, in their twenties. Equal opportunity; he crosses race lines. Oh, and the media's having a field day. They're calling him the Bone Crusher.

[first lines]
Allie: [on the phone with a friend] You mean that place in the old market? Yeah, that sounds like fun, but I'm gonna have to pass. 'Cause I'd fall asleep in the middle of the dance floor. The restaurant was packed tonight. If I never have to make another kale and potato mousseline again, it'll be too soon. Okay. Tell everyone I said hi. Next time, I promise. Good night.

Emily: Where were you on the days Ethan Hayes and Michael Bridges were abducted?
Walter: I was home.
David: Don't you need to ask what days those were?

David: Texas plates.
Detective: Deacon Rogers never rented a car. He drove here from Texas in this. Put it out as a BOLO.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Agent Hotchner is taking statements from the family of Steven Fitzgerald. He might be our unsub.
Detective: Seriously?
Emily: It's an unusual household.
Detective: We've had his picture this whole time?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Apparently.

Luke: I heard you were looking for me.
Emily: Yeah. Come on in, have a seat.
Luke: Uh-oh. Am, uh... am I in trouble?
Emily: Well, we do have to talk about one of your FD-302s, your report about what happened on the roof with Scratch.
Luke: Yeah, I was a... a little light on the details.
Emily: Here's the thing. The brass is gonna want a blow-by-blow. Scratch was a notorious enemy of the BAU. I just want to dot our I's and cross our T's.

David: [voiceover] Paul Brown once said "If you win, say nothing. If you lose, say less."

Melissa: Am I your unsub? Yes or no.
Dr. Tara Lewis: You are a person of interest, just like every other truther in this building tonight.
Melissa: That's a yes. Which is why I'm recording all of this; to show the world exactly how far the FBI is willing to go to cover up the truth.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Okay. Let's... let's take a moment. I think we've gotten off track.
Melissa: No, no. No, we're, uh, we're right where we need to be. See, I wanted the brilliant science of behavioral profiling to provide an answer for all this. I really did. But right now, from where I'm sitting, this crazy conspiracy theorist is the only one making any sense.

Dr. Spencer Reid: We profiled Grant as either a hit man or a moral enforcer, but he's actually both. He's a moral enforcer posing as a hit man. It's the perfect cover.
Emily: We need to find everyone associated with the cartel in this immediate area. That's where he's heading next.
Jennifer: [entering] The DEA's just given us three more suspected Martinez cartel contacts in the D.C. area. I just sent you all their info, Garcia.
Penelope: On it. Ken Ronson, Steve Bagnis, Kathleen Jensen. I've sent you their home and work addresses.
Emily: Phil, do you recognize any of them?
Phil: No.
Emily: Okay, then we have to assume all three are still in play. Let's split up and go.

Penelope: [On the phone to Luke] Oh, that sounds like flirting! I don't flirt with you, that's my mission statement. What do you need?

Luke: Alright, look, why don't Penelope and I coordinate from here and then you guys go ahead...
Jennifer: Wheels up!

David: [opening quotation, voiceover] "I am dead. Only vengeance can restore me." - Terry Goodkind.

Jennifer: Who else uses a .308 rifle?
David: In Texas? Hunters... the Minutemen... housewives... which, unfortunately, doesn't narrow down the field.

Emily: I encouraged him. Oh. I flirted with him. Made it personal. Getting intimate with a killer is... so different
Aaron: It's what we do
Emily: [Nods yes] Yeah, but... there's no fixing how I feel right now, is there?
Aaron: No. But you helped the case. And you did what you had to

Dr. Lode Barren: We have no further questions, Agent Rossi. You may be excused.
David: I would like to be heard. We believe that Manning's dying declaration was a false confession.
Dr. Lode Barren: Agent Rossi, this is an administrative hearing, not a criminal trial. You've answered our questions, now you are excused.

David: The unsub's probably been stockpiling provisions, weapons, and other supplies for years.
Emily: That would take a lot of research and planning. Garcia, what kind of online presence do preppers have?
Penelope: They're a bunch of chatty Cathys. There's a plethora of chat rooms, podcasts, websites, all about Tee-Ought-Walk-Kee. Uh, that's what they call "The end of the world as we know it".
Luke: What do they talk about?
Penelope: Everything from food storage tips to basic first aid, best place to get a gas mask, places to live that won't be affected by climate change. Website here that tells preppers they should get corrective eye surgery.
David: That makes sense. If you were to lose or break your glasses when the Earth is laid bare, something tells me it would be hard to find a LensCrafters.
Penelope: It's like that episode in "The Twilight Zone".
Emily: Garcia.
Penelope: Oh, I'm digressing.

Jennifer: [bringing Jack and Henry to the BAU after Hotch's arrest] It's bad.
Dr. Tara Lewis: How much did they see?
Jennifer: All of it. Which is why I figured this is the safest place to bring them.

David: [opening quote, voiceover] "I know indeed what evil I intend to do. But stronger than all my afterthoughts is my fury. Fury that brings upon mortals the greatest evils." - Euripides.
