[after Lisa Blake's rape] Excuse me, how bad were her injuries?
CTCSU Tech
She's lucky, they're relatively minor.
Do me a favor? Don't tell her that she's lucky.

Plato wrote, "We can easily forgive a child who's afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light." [NOTE: This quote is falsely attributed to Plato and is actually attributed to Lucretius, who was quoted by Seneca the Elder in his work on "Morals" as, "We are as much afraid in the light as children in the dark."]
I really wanted to be a part of the team.
You were.
But when I needed the team, I was all alone. I was alone in the one place that I have the right to feel safe, and that's my home. Just like those women in Ohio who were attacked had a right to feel safe in their homes.
Yeah, this is true. All complaints filed were false alarms, but then there is that matter of his missing wife.
Wife? What wife? When did she go missing?
Almost fifty years ago.
No record of her ever being found?
I got two words for you, my friend: Rear Window. That guy probably chopped that lady up into delicious, bite-sized little pieces. Think about it. She may have never left the premises. [whispers] She may still be in the house.
Garcia, I'm sitting here in the dark alone. Thanks.
While you're waiting for a potential murderer to come home? Kind of dangerous. Kind of sexy.
You really are afraid of the dark.
I'm working on that.
You should work a little harder.
[after turning in her credentials] You know, when I first started this job, the sound of my phone ringing, a call from the Bureau, I used to get so excited. The blood would race through my veins. And now, that same sound, it paralyzes me. I'm not the same person anymore. That night at Lee's, if I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't change a thing.
Even though you killed someone?
I guess that's it, then. You know, when I first joined the team, I couldn't figure out why you never, ever smile. Now I think I'm actually gonna miss that.
[Greenaway exits Hotchner's office, picks up her box of personal belongings and leaves the bullpen]
I'm gonna miss you too.
Legendary basketball coach John Wooden said, "It's not so important who starts the game, but who finishes it."
You don't believe the girls are missing?
SSSgt. Sikes
It's not really the kind of thing that happens around here, you know?
You'd be surprised to know how many times we hear that.
He who seeks the "Queen of All Knowledge" speak and be recognized.
Garcia, we're sending you some cigarettes.
Why not a flesh-eating virus? It'll be faster and far less painful.
We need some butts rushed to the lab for DNA analysis.
Oh, Reid... I love it when you say "butts." Send away, sugar. Bang bang for now.
"The ultimate choice for a man, in as much as he is given to transcend himself, is to create or destroy, to love or to hate." Erich Fromm
Robespierre wrote, "Crime butchers innocence to secure a prize, and innocence struggles with all its might against the attempts of crime."
[referring to the bomber's phone call warning of an attack "where it all began"] So Seattle's "where it all began."
We just need to figure out what "it" is and, off the top of my head, I can think of grunge music and overpriced coffee.
Hey, Dollface, ready to work some magic for me?
Challenge me, you beautiful behavioral analyst.
I'd like to attach a protective detail for you Dr. Cooke, until we find the guy.
ECDr. Emory Cooke
No, thank you.
Excuse me?
ECDr. Emory Cooke
Really now. Do I seem like the sort who would want to be followed around all day by a government goon squad? I don't think so.
[Dr. Cooke leaves as Morgan enters]
Goon squad?
Ever talk to someone who wants to continually show you he's smarter than you?
[motions to Reid] Every day.
I need to stop by a bookstore and get a copy of Empty Planet. I want to reread it before we talk to the author. I haven't read it since I was six.
Six? I was still riding my Big Wheel at six years old.
Do you mind? It will only take 10 minutes.
To buy it or read it?
Uh... both, actually.
