JJoey

I saw it on TV. Three strikes and I'm out. I'm not going back. I'm not going down for this...

Put the weapon DOWN!

Wow. She obviously did nothing to protect Amber from the abuse. She... she feels betrayed by her mother and now receives extreme sadistic pleasure in watching the same thing that happened to her. Strange. In this case, the abused actually became the abuser.

That doesn't happen a lot?

One in eight.

We found the one.

Philosopher Kahlil Gibran wrote, "Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars." [NOTE: This quote is falsely attributed to Gibran and is actually from Edwin Hubbell Chapin's 1860 book Living Words.]

[discussing Jack's medical condition] At home with my mom. I didn't want him here while we were talking. Look, I know this job is important to you, but we're important, too.

You don't have to tell me that.

I don't want you to wake up some day in some random city and realize that you don't know your own son.

"Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth." Oscar Wilde

[reading the headline] Stripping Bandit. That's terrible. That makes it sound like the bandit's doing the stripping.

What would you call him?

Pervert.

Scumbag.

I'd call him an ass.

Hey, focus, please.

"The basis of shame is not some personal mistake of ours, but that this humiliation is seen by everyone." Milan Kundera

Helen Keller once said, "Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of overcoming it."

You tend to forget, don't you?

What?

All the different moods on the plane. I think the mindset's different when the victims are still alive.

I thought maybe... you might want to talk.

Don't go all profiler on me.

Elle, you got shot in your own home, and then came back to the BAU like nothing even happened. Thinking you might want to talk isn't profiling, it's Psych 101.

Oh, one last favor. Look up the words "sexy" and "brilliant" in that computer of yours, and tell me what you come up with.

Look at that, it's me.

You are a goddess, woman. Ciao. [turns off his phone and sees the women in the waiting room staring at him] It was a... it's a work call.

[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.
