200 Best Dr. Tara Lewis Quotes

Penelope: Cruz just sent me the arresting report. Hold, please. Translating now. O... kay. It says here that Reid was involved in a high-speed chase.
Emily: What? He hardly ever drives.
Penelope: None of this sounds like him. It says he was wearing jeans, he was really confused. This... according to the arresting officer, he was really high on something.
Jennifer: No. No. He wouldn't do that. Not after what happened with Tobias Hankel.
Luke: Who's that?
Emily: An offender with D.I.D. who kidnapped and drugged Reid.
Dr. Tara Lewis: When was this?
Jennifer: Ten years ago.

Dr. Tara Lewis: [closing quote] "Holding on is believing that there is only a past, letting go is knowing there is a future" - Daphne Rose Kingma

Dr. Tara Lewis: [closing quote] A Spanish Proverb Says: "More grows in the garden than the gardener knows he planted."

Dr. Tara Lewis: What are you thinking?
Emily: A lot of circumstantial evidence against Jimmy Ridley, but I wanted to go over...
Dr. Tara Lewis: I was actually wondering what you were thinking about staying.
Emily: Oh. Right. Well, uh, more pros than cons. I love this group and the job, but...
Dr. Tara Lewis: But you've got a life back in London and a boyfriend.
Emily: Yeah.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Have you told him yet?
Emily: Oh, I haven't had the chance. We jumped on the jet.
Dr. Tara Lewis: ou should call him.
Emily: I will. You mean right this second.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah.
Emily: [Pick her phone and make a call] Hey. I hope I didn't wake you.

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.

Penelope: Okay, I am obsessively refreshing the Mexican prison logs, and so far, Reid is staying put. But... but they could transfer him to Santa Adaladia or El Diablo, both of which make Matamoros look like a day spa. Like a who's who of bad guys. Crazy rough, really overcrowded. There's assaults and murders on inmates monthly.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Look, he's an American accused of murdering a Mexican citizen. The government is well within their rights to keep him there.
Jennifer: Well, they could do worse. They could lock him up and throw away the key.
Stephen: Look, the only thing we know Reid is guilty of is getting the vials for his mother. Now, maybe the drugs in those vials weren't illegal.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Oh, I hate to say it, but they probably were. I mean, he couldn't get whatever it is stateside.
Jennifer: Or let's say it wasn't an illegal substance, but whoever planted the heroin in the trunk...
Dr. Tara Lewis: Put something crazy in the vials, as well.
Jennifer: Right.
Penelope: [her computer chirps] Reid is going to El Diablo maximum security by they end of the day. They just put in the transfer.

Dr. Tara Lewis: This process is called Eye Movement Desensitization and Reconditioning. And all you have to do is focus on the movement of the metronome and the sound of our voices.
Luke: [Tara sets the metronome in motion] Okay, let's go back to the last thing you remember in his lair.
Ally: I don't want to.
Luke: Nothing bad is gonna happen to you, Ally. You're safe, okay?

Dr. Tara Lewis: You know, all of your friends have lawyered up, called us Nazis, or both. But you haven't.
Melissa: So?
Dr. Tara Lewis: So that tells me you want to get to the bottom of this just as much as we do.
Melissa: Do you know what a podcast is?
Dr. Tara Lewis: I do.
Melissa: Well, I have one. So if we're actually gonna do this, you give me back my phone and I record our conversation for my podcast, 'cause I'm not talking to you without documenting everything.
Dr. Tara Lewis: You want this on the record?
Melissa: Of course. I want this on the record. Otherwise I'm lawyering up with all my friends. So what do you say?

David: Garcia, what have you got for us?
Penelope: Just this. Two drivers and two pedestrians.
David: Well, the victimology on this case is going to be difficult.
Dr. Tara Lewis: It's just hard to know who the unsub's intended victims are. And the drivers, the D.A.'s considering murder charges in both cases, not to mention the psychological damage this unsub's inflicted, or the pedestrians, or both.
Luke: Any connection between the drivers and the people they hit?
Penelope: Just what we already know. Both drivers had the same kind of vehicle and it happened at the same location. Besides that, nothing. So what does the unsub want?
Jennifer: Well, he's causing death and destruction while exerting power and control.
David: And creating a public spectacle.
Luke: Maybe there's some paraphilia there, like an arsonist who likes to watch.
Stephen: If this is about voyeurism, that might make it sexual, and if so, he's not likely to stop.
Penelope: [her computer chimes] This just in. One of the drivers, Marta Calderon, she's agreed to an interview.
David: All right. JJ, Luke, Garcia, you head the crash site. A special investigator from the NTSB will meet you there. Tara, Stephen, and I will go straight to the Bradenton P.D.

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.

Emily: Okay, I want a full breakdown on Lindsey's life. Aliases, contacts, hits, uh... where she gets her hollow point rounds.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah, Walker and I will take that.
Emily: Okay. Then I want a list of everyone who was in Cat's prison in the past year. Cat was communicating with Lindsey through a maximum security facility. Somewhere, there is a weak link to her chain.

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. Tara Lewis: Ballistics confirmed that the gun that killed Carl is the one that Doug used on himself. All the evidence points to Doug Downey as our killer, except...
Melissa: Except you don't have anything tying Doug to Bryan's drowning.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Melissa, I've been as transparent as I can possibly be. Is there anything we've missed?
Melissa: One thing. But you didn't miss it, you covered it up. Specifically, that the sheriff made us all walk through a metal detector.
Dr. Tara Lewis: What?
Melissa: [sardonic laugh] Don't pretend you didn't know that. And don't pretend you don't know why. Someone in law enforcement planted a gun on Doug. Because what was that he was saying earlier tonight?
Doug: [flashback] What did you put in my pocket?
Matt: Gun! Drop it!
Dr. Tara Lewis: [return to real time] Melissa, that doesn't make any sense.
Melissa: You tell me what's more believable: a missing gun in a wacky compartment, or the police planted a Bodyguard 380, a very popular firearm in law enforcement, on Doug. Then they call their friends all the way in Quantico and you guys get on your fancy jet and come out here to make sure that the cover-up's complete.
Dr. Tara Lewis: That's not what happened.

Melissa: We were dating. That's not a crime.
Emily: So why hide it?
Melissa: The truther community is small, and we're gossipy. Also, we're already convinced agents like you are watching us. So Carl and I covered our tracks. So well, in fact, that the great and powerful Garcia is not going to find them.
Emily: I believe you. Which is why we had to rely on old-fashioned profiling to figure out this next part. And it started with a question you asked first. Why would Doug kill himself for no reason? So, we reconstructed Doug's suicide to see what we missed.
[dissolve to the legion hall]
Dr. Tara Lewis: So you were there and I was here.
Emily: Right.
Dr. Tara Lewis: And then he was screaming at you, "I know a false flag when I see one, bitch", and then bang.
Emily: No, that's not right. He said all those things, but not to me. He was looking at you.
Dr. Tara Lewis: No. No, if someone made eye contact with me and called me a bitch, I'd remember.
Matt: Maybe he wasn't looking at either of you. He was looking between you.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Uh... JJ, you were posted up over there for line of sight.
Jennifer: Yeah.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Okay, there's only one other woman in the room he would have been talking to.

Penelope: [showing pictures on the big screen] St. Augustine, Fl. Uh, two bodies were found, early this evening, in a remote wooded area, just west of the city. Neither have been identified yet
Dr. Tara Lewis: This woman's complexion...
Penelope: She was exsanguinated, which is really a fun word to say, but I didn't know its terrible meaning until I started working here

Dr. Tara Lewis: I was just checking to see if we have a case
Emily: We don't
Dr. Tara Lewis: We don't?
Emily: No, I can double check, but...
[sees Garcia walking outside her room]
Emily: Eh Garcia?
Penelope: [Rushes in] Ma'am?
Emily: Please, stop calling me that! Eh, we've not been called in anywhere, haven we?
Penelope: No! As of 9:27 Eastern Standard Time, all serial killers have taken a day off, maybe they went to therapy

Luke: [about Reid in jail] What are we going to do?
Penelope: Oh, Newbie, oh Newbie! I'm gonna tell you what we're gonna do. We're gonna send him letters, every day. We're gonna put money in his commissary account. We're going to sent him puzzles, magazines, books, whatever we can think of to make sure those gorgeous gears inside that boy-wonder brain are lubed up and in perfect working order. To keep us on track, I took the liberty of making a chart
Dr. Tara Lewis: Good idea, Penelope
Penelope: Yes, I couldn't agree more

Dr. Tara Lewis: [closing quote] "How blessed are some people, whose lives have no fears, no dreads, to whom sleep is a blessing that comes nightly and brings nothing but sweet dreams" - Bram Stoker

Doctor: So, as you requested, I reviewed the autopsy of your first victim, Mr. Tate, so I could compare them with my findings here of Mr. Nakamura.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, both men appear to have suffered roughly the same amount of severe blunt-force trauma to their bodies.
Doctor: Yes. And all of it exacted perimortem, before death. While nearly every bone in both of these bodies was either broken or cracked, the actual cause of death for both men was exsanguination, due to the severing of the coronary arteries.
Dr. Tara Lewis: From the removal of the heart?
Doctor: I think a more apt description would be... "dug out".
Dr. Tara Lewis: Oof. Do you have any idea what type of weapon was used here?
Doctor: As a matter of fact, I think I do. Follow me.

Matt: The place was ransacked. We don't know what was taken, if anything.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Victim's name is Walter Knight. Married, father of two.
Matt: The unsub didn't need a cinder block this time. This chair was heavy enough to sink him to the bottom.
Dr. Tara Lewis: It almost looks like a shroud.
Matt: California King, 500 weave.
[seeing her look]
Matt: It's a bedsheet. Unsub took it from inside. We know where Walter's wife and kids are?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Florida, visiting relatives.
Matt: This is a deviation from his usual M.O. Could be a sign of remorse.
Dr. Tara Lewis: [uncovering the victim, seeing a large needle through his nose] Not that remorseful.
Matt: Whew. So the unsub sewed him up, stuck this needle through his nose, dumped the chair in the pool. Level of sadism's ratcheting up. We gotta find this guy fast.

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

David: He is lying about something; I just can't put my finger on it
Dr. Tara Lewis: Not much we can do about that, though
David: Oh! You'll be surprised
[and calls Garcia]

Jennifer: The unsub could hold a grudge against accomplished women, especially if he feels inferior.
Dr. Spencer Reid: You know, the unemployment rate in Virginia is only 3.7%. But if he's out of work, he might resent them for being better educated or making more money.
Dr. Tara Lewis: And you also need to throw rejection into the mix. I mean, this guy could be a jilted lover or feel frustrated by the type of woman he thinks he can't get.
Emily: Garcia, any luck finding a connection between these women?
Penelope: Nothing on social media.
David: Were any of the dating or in a relationship?
Penelope: Not that I can see. They haven't posted, you know, any typical romantic pics with a boyfriend or girlfriend.

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: 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.

Melissa: Bull crap. Bull. Crap. You know, I would use stronger language, but I don't want this podcast to get an "explicit" rating.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, it's the truth. Metal detectors require precise calibration. Otherwise, they're susceptible to all kinds of interference. Photocopiers, Bluetooth, even fluorescent lighting. The sheriff was in such a hurry to get it set up down at the legion hall that he assumed it would work the same way it always had, but it didn't.
Melissa: I still don't buy it.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Do you know why?
Melissa: Why what?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Why you don't buy it. I can tell you. It's called proportionality bias. You see, it's our natural human instinct to assume that big events have big causes. We don't want to believe that a lone gunman killed JFK with a rifle he bought for $19.99, or that hijackers brought down four planes using only box cutters. I mean, there has to be a better explanation. We need an answer that's more satisfying, but sometimes it just isn't. You know? Machines break down. Systems don't work. Life is messy. It's random.
Melissa: Fine. Let's just test your version, shall we?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Let's.
Melissa: You're saying that Doug snuck a gun through a metal detector, a metal detector he would have no way of knowing was broken, is that your story?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, why don't you tell me a better one.
Melissa: Not my job. What my audience wants to hear, however, is how well your team does yours.

[last lines]
Dr. Tara Lewis: What is it now?
Aaron: Three more prison breaks in three different states, all organized by Rawdon's partners from his last bombing attempt.
Penelope: The local field office got a head start because of what we did. They stopped the bomb threat, but...
David: Who didn't they catch?
Aaron: All have serial killer wings just like VA Max.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Let me guess; they were released first to cause maximum chaos and occupy law enforcement.
Penelope: A lot of them were killed or recaptured, but not all of them.
Jennifer: How many got away?
Penelope: As of right now, thirteen serial killers, one of which is Peter Lewis.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Mr. Scratch. That's why he testified against you. He was part of their plan all along.
Aaron: So we have to catch him again, along with twelve other murderers.

Emily: Go ahead, Dave.
David: Well, it looks like Yvonne Westfield is this unsub's first kill. He's new at it, experimenting with the taste of human flesh. And behaviorally, we know that it's not Ferell.
Emily: Okay, let's play this out. If this killer's responsible for all the kills attributed to Ferell, he'd be experienced. He wouldn't be starting from scratch.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah, and there'd be no reason for tentative bite or hestiation marks.
Emily: He also wouldn't have done such a poor job hiding Yvonne's body. I mean, that feels like a newbie mistake.
David: You know, I agree. All of that rules out the theory that the current unsub was operating ten years ago.
Emily: Let's look at this from the other way around. What if Ferell isn't the patsy? What if Ferell has a patsy? Meaning he's had a plan all along to get out of Hazelwood State.
David: So he trains a new unsub to kill using his exact same signature so we think that this new guy was killing ten years ago.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Then it stands to reason this new unsub is gonna make more boneheaded mistakes.
Emily: First-timers hunt where they live, work, and play. He probably knew the first victim. I'll have Detective Russ bring in her family.

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.

David: You're up for a road trip?
Dr. Tara Lewis: You're kidding me? I pack a toothbrush to go to the post-office!

David: How's the diet going? I just wondered if you were trying to regain those 185 pounds?
Dr. Tara Lewis: No, I think, ehm, I wanna keep them off
David: I'm sorry it didn't work out. But if it's any consolation to you, I've been there, more than once and I'm still standing
Dr. Tara Lewis: Rossi, do you think our basic personalities can ever change?
David: No! Maybe a degree here or there, but I think we come out of the oven fully cooked
Dr. Tara Lewis: It worried me sometimes
David: Why?
Dr. Tara Lewis: I tend to be all in, you know? Damn the consequences
David: That's why you're good at your job! Embrace it

Dr. Tara Lewis: And a triangle was cut from his calf muscle
David: Dear Diary, just when I thought I heard it all!

Melissa: Okay, stop right there.
Dr. Tara Lewis: What?
Melissa: You guys have a jet?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yes.
Melissa: A jet.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yes.
Melissa: Black helicopters surveilling the American people; no, no that's ridiculous. But a little branch of the FBI has its own private jet.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Okay, one, I never said the FBI doesn't have black helicopters. And two, when people are being murdered, we have to respond quickly.
Melissa: [with a scoff] A jet. I can't even.

David: Curious how only the female was shot.
Matt: Well, that means the men are most likely the true targets. He puts them through these prolonged, agonizing deaths when the gun would have done the job quickly.
Luke: Either that or he forgot an extra cinder block when he went to the Robbins' house.
Dr. Tara Lewis: You know, this unsub doesn't strike me as the forgetful type.

Penelope: [picking up her phone] Full disclosure, fear of change it forces me to continue eating frozen desert food. What do you need?
Luke: We think the unsub is the son of a couple who used to live in Beaumont
Penelope: Do you think that, newbie? Oh my gosh! You just narrowed the candidates to like 1.2 million people
Dr. Tara Lewis: It's just the sugar talking

Dr. Tara Lewis: [opening quote] "Perhaps when we find ourselves wanting everything, it is because we are dangerously near to wanting nothing" - Sylvia Plath

Dr. Tara Lewis: I admit my bias, out loud, because I wasn't able to see what was right in front of me the whole time. I thought anyone who believed in conspiracy theories had to be deluded. There was no way they could outsmart me. And I was wrong. There is a conspiracy in this case. And you are at the center of it. So, allow me to be clear from this point forward. I'm gonna give you one chance to tell the truth. One. Keep in mind we are already searching your place. If you lie, if you hold back in any way, I will know about it, and I will nail you for it. All the way to a life sentence.
Melissa: Wow. What's the point of this? I guess there's just one last thing to say before I invoke my right to an attorney. Good luck.

Luke: Tara Lewis. You don't call, you don't write.
Dr. Tara Lewis: "Dear Luke Alvez, wish you were here." Seriously, though, I really wish you were here. Any chance you can fly up to Seattle? Looks like there's been an active killer up here for decades that we never knew about. We got 16 dead bodies in a buried shipping container.
Luke: 16?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Locals are overwhelmed, DEA is gonna swear cartel.
Luke: And you?
Dr. Tara Lewis: 100% serial killer.
Luke: Hey, listen, I wish I could jump on a flight, but I promised Rossi I'd hold down the fort here for another week.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Man, you staying still makes about as much sense as the Bureau benching our jet.
Luke: What's the over/under that we get that back this year?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Oh, it's looking bleak, my friend. Very bleak. Listen, I'd really like to show Rossi what's happening up here. I think he'd send you.
Luke: No, he's been focused on that Virginia case.
Dr. Tara Lewis: What Virginia case?
Luke: Family annihilator. It's brutal.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yikes. Well, maybe we could get Prentiss to approve.
Luke: Eh...
Dr. Tara Lewis: What do you mean, "Eh"?
Luke: Just... eh. You know, since her promotion, she's, uh... she's got her mind on a lot more than just us.

Dr. Tara Lewis: We know, behaviorally, that Marcus was lying.
David: Regardless, we have to turn over his dying declaration to Ferell's defense counsel.
Luke: She'll use it to get him out.
Matt: That's what Ferell wanted all along.
Dr. Spencer Reid: He manipulated the mental health system to get out again by coercing Marcus into taking credit for his crimes.
Detective: And I'm left with a cannibal about to be released back into my community. How do I protect them?
Emily: None of us wants to risk waiting for Ferell to kill again, and we all know believe he will, but there's simply nothing we can do legally at this time.
David: Well, I can't leave here doing nothing. I'll try to get the hospital board to understand Ferell's hand in all this.
Detective: I appreciate that, and everything you've done for us. Thank you.

Emily: Jeremy Grant has killed multiple people. Now that he's murdered a federal agent, he knows the full weight of every agency in the U.S. law enforcement machine will be looking for him.
Dr. Spencer Reid: We know from his profile he's not suicidal.
Jennifer: Exactly. So he'll go underground, which means he'll either flee the country or wait for the storm to pass.
Matt: He's a sniper with resources on both sides of the border.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Right. These guys are trained to have safe houses and backstops.
Emily: Okay, that's where we start. I want a full background on Grant's DEA history; missions, known associates, anyone or anything that would help keep him off the radar. JJ's right, he will try and go underground, but before he does, I have a feeling he's gonna wanna get in one final shot.

Jennifer: [looking at the footage of their yesterday's lady's night] I am both horrified and delighted that there's evidence of last night
Dr. Tara Lewis: [drinking something green] Wait! What is this?
Penelope: It helps with hangovers and that is all you need to know
Dr. Tara Lewis: It tates like you scraped the forest floor and juiced it!
[Garcia smirks]
Dr. Tara Lewis: Even that's too generous. Ugh
Luke: [walks in with coffee] Hey, hey, Emily told me what you guys getting into and I figured you could use these
Dr. Tara Lewis: [grabs one] Thank God! I'm gonna get this caffeine into my face hole
Penelope: [surprised] This is from Lunacorn! Luke Alvez, stop making me like you!
Luke: Ha! Never!

Matt: So, we went through Carl's meticulous log of his hardware, and the missing gun that should be here is a Bodyguard 380. Now, if the unsub found this in a secret compartment, then he knows Carl, probably very well. And based on the fortress that Carl lived in, it'd probably be another truther. No one else could get that close.
Jennifer: And that would explain why there was no forced entry at Bryan's, either.
Luke: So when Carl said "I'm close to finding out who it is", he wasn't talking about some secret cabal, he was talking about a friend.
Emily: Someone he was willing to call the cops on. We should bring all the truthers in for questioning.
Dr. Tara Lewis: No. No, that won't work. They won't cooperate under coercion. Look, I say we lay all our cards out on the table. Let's deliver our profile to them.
Emily: Oh, that's risky.
Dr. Tara Lewis: But worth it. Either one of the truthers points us to the unsub... or he shows up himself.

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.

Luke: I mean, is this all you could find?
Penelope: Yes, for now my liege, but I shall keep digging
[bows and starts leaves the room]
Luke: [surprised] Wait! What... what was that?
Penelope: What was what?
Luke: Like, where's the snark? Like a comment about how amazing it is that I can tie my own shoes or a question about how I could enter the FBI wearing a caveman overall and carrying a big, wooden club?
Penelope: [giggles] You're funny! That's funny! A club? No, don't be so hard on yourself
[leaves the room]
Luke: Oh my God! She is getting some!
Dr. Tara Lewis: She is so getting some!

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.

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.

Penelope: Release the genie.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Leland Peters, did his juvie trouble ever involve another kid?
Penelope: Uh, yeah. A whole group of kids. They ran in a pack.
Jennifer: Does one name pop up more than the others?
Penelope: Oh. Like B-14 in a Bingo parlor. Jess Carney. He and Leland were thick as thieves. Literally. Stole stuff, truancy. But this is weird. At age fourteen, Jess - poof - like, disappears. His behavior took a violent turn shortly after the canyon flooded. His parents couldn't control him anymore. And as soon as the mystery presents itself, the mystery is solved. Jess was institutionalized out of state, put on antidepressants.
Luke: That would explain the arrested development. He was medicated and isolated during some crucial formative years.
Penelope: Jess returned to California when he was twenty-four and worked odd jobs in and around San Diego, and then... suddenly left the area about a month ago.
Jennifer: That's right around the time the killings started.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Do we know where Jess is now?
Penelope: Oh. Oh, we do not. After he left San Diego, he... he poof, vanished again. It's like a re-poof, I guess you'd call it.
Luke: Is there a recent photo of Carney?
Penelope: Uh, the best I have is a DMV photo from six years ago. Sending it now.

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.

David: Baltimore PD confirmed a break-in at Dr. Rhodes' home. She's gone.
Dr. Tara Lewis: We're on our way there now.
Luke: Emily, we've located the Addisons. They're up in Lancaster. They say they haven't seen David in weeks, that he actually moved out of their house over a year ago.
Jennifer: That would be right around the time his dad died in prison.
Emily: It definitely triggered him, and he probably wanted to make sure he didn't do anything to hurt his adoptive parents.
Jennifer: [her phone buzzes] Penelope and Matt have something.

David: This unsub is what's known as a sadistic symphorophiliac.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Symphorophilia is a type of paraphilia in which sexual arousal is derived from staging and then watching disasters, such as fires or, in this case, car accidents.
Jennifer: Observing the destruction he causes is extremely important to this unsub.
Stephen: He enjoys watching the terror of the drivers whose cars he hijacks, as well as the impact with his chosen pedestrian victim.
Luke: In order to watch, he hacks traffic cameras or in-car dashboard cameras, as well as dashboard mounted smartphones.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Now, so far there's no apparent connection between the drivers of the vehicles and their pedestrian victims.
David: Instead, it appears the drivers are selected based on the vehicles they drive.
Stephen: This pattern of vehicle selection was initially limited to a single make and model, but he has since expanded his hacking capabilities.
David: We believe our unsub is a white male in his mid- to late twenties.
Jennifer: This unsub is careful enough to select drivers based on after market add-ons to their vehicles, such as dashboard cams or smartphone mounts.
Penelope: Workplace parking lots would be really a good hunting ground because he'd be able to see the same cars over and over, and once he's determined that that driver is using those after market devices consistently, bang, that's his next victim.
Luke: His first two hijackings were in order to perfect his technique. And those pedestrians were victims of opportunity.
Dr. Tara Lewis: However, this latest hijacking reveals that he's refining his victim criteria. He specifically chose a young, attractive, dark haired woman.
David: It's likely this victim was a surrogate for someone the unsub seeks to terrify and punish.
Jennifer: This unsub may lack the confidence and social skills necessary to form healthy relationships, which could be fueling his anger.
Stephen: We anticipate his next victim or victims to be young, attractive women with whom he has some sort of personal connection.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Encourage drivers to protect themselves by removing after market dashboard cameras and to refrain from mounting smartphones on their dashboards or CD slots.
Luke: That's right. If the unsub can't watch, he will not select that car and driver.
Stephen: Law enforcement also needs to understand that the drivers of these vehicles are victims. They are unable to control the vehicles they appear to be driving.

Dr. Tara Lewis: [closing quote] "No man really knows about other human beings. The best he can do is to suppose that they are like himself" - John Steinbeck

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

Jennifer: Usually I can read him. I can't believe I didn't pick up on any of this.
Stephen: He didn't want you to, and there's no way you would have guessed he'd end up in Mexico.
Dr. Tara Lewis: The question is why did he go down there?
David: And why does he have narcotics?
Penelope: Yeah, exactly. That... that... he... he wouldn't... he wouldn't do that. You got... I'm not gonna share any secrets I'm not supposed to, but those... those drugs were planted on him.
Stephen: Absolutely, but there's something bigger in play. That's why he crossed the border and kept it a secret. There's something he didn't want to share with any of you.
Emily: Okay, so what would make him risk everything?
Jennifer: His mom.

Jennifer: [seeing Tyler being brought in] Think Rossi will be able to get anywhere with him?
Luke: I'd think the real question is: will he survive Garcia? Looks like Tyler Green is Garcia's most hated
Dr. Tara Lewis: Sounds like you miss it, buddy
Luke: [giggling] No, he can have that title

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

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.

Matt: So, based on what we know about Robin Rhodes, there was neither a David Smith nor an Edward Addison that was ever part of her life. The only connection they have is through her mother, Dr. Rhodes, who took him in as a client last year.
David: Well, she couldn't be paying him to kill off Kirkwood and all his friends.
Jennifer: No, David's inherited impulses wouldn't allow him to commit such a purely mercenary act of violence.
Dr. Tara Lewis: And we know vengeance isn't emotionally transferrable, so why would David be killing these men to satisfy Dr. Rhodes' need for revenge?
Emily: Dr. Rhodes was able to take advantage of the fact that David's internalized love map is in a state of arrested development. Even when I first encountered him, he was susceptible to extreme maternal transference.
Jennifer: It's also why he's not inclined to harm his female accomplices.
Luke: So David was worried that he shared his dad's violent urges, and he went to Dr. Rhodes for help, but instead of helping him, she manipulated his trust in order to do her own bidding.
David: I bet she's telling him that these guys are just like dear old dad, and if he has this urge to kill, the best way of working through it all is to kill them.

Jennifer: Well, Leland's juvie history was pretty innocuous. Vandalism, shoplifting. Hardly gateway crimes to the life of a serial killer.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, every grown-up monster was once a cute little baby monster.
Luke: The bigger issue for me is how does a thirteen year old boy stay off the radar for twenty years?
Jennifer: When Garcia can't find a breadcrumb, it's usually because the bread was never baked.
Luke: Yeah, at some point, it's time to stop thinking about what's possible and start thinking about what's likely. Which for me is that Leland is dead, and has been dead for a long, long time.
Jennifer: Which would leave us where?

Dr. Tara Lewis: Who is this guy? He's got victims from 2005 to 2020? There's no way he just turns off and quits.
Deputy: Well, I pulled the arrests for the past two years. Nothing comes close. Guess he could have moved or died. If he hasn't brought anybody back here since 2020, maybe he got injured. Hell, maybe he died from COVID.
Dr. Tara Lewis: What if we're ignoring the obvious here, right? I mean, what if he stopped because we all stopped? Everybody sheltered in place, no one to stalk, abduct, or kill without taking a huge risk.
Deputy: How do we know it's not some psycho hitman just looking to torture people?
Dr. Tara Lewis: No, hitmen are detached. They're efficient. They're practiced. But... but not this killer. You said it yourself. This guy's obsessed.
[showing him an evidence baggie]
Dr. Tara Lewis: This was hidden down there. Cartel hitmen, they don't bother keeping trophies like this.
Deputy: We need to identify these vics. I gotta be honest with you, my county lab can't handle it.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, if the BAU gains jurisdiction, I can have it taken to Quantico.

Emily: Have we dispatched units to the location Scratch tried to lure us to?
Dr. Tara Lewis: I coordinated it before we left. They're on their way.
Luke: SWAT will meet us on site at Scratch's house.
Emily: I know we all want this son of a bitch's head on a platter, but SWAT has to clear every single room before we step foot inside.
Jennifer: Well, have they been briefed? This guy's traps have traps.
David: The house itself could be a setup.
Stephen: Or a waste of our time so he can get away.
Emily: Whatever it is, he's gonna try to take us by surprise. We have to be ready for anything.

Jennifer: No, that's not right.
Luke: What do you mean it's not right? It's right here.
[as they pass through the metal detector, Emily and Tara notice it doesn't go off]
Jennifer: No, that's not what I saw.
Emily: Did that just...?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah. Yeah, it did.
Sheriff: What is it?
[Tara walks through the metal detector, which doesn't beep]
Sheriff: How in the world could that happen?
Dr. Tara Lewis: I think I might know.

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.

Luke: Inspector Silva was wrong. Ramos stayed in prison for three years, and then he broke out and vanished. Now, both the DEA and the FBI believed he'd come back to get his revenge on the Martinez cartel because someone inside the cartel, and we never found out who, gave us the initial tip that led to his arrest.
Dr. Tara Lewis: So, the trail that led to Paul McEntee's panic room may have started with the Martinez cartel, and if that's true, it likely involved drugs.
Luke: Yeah. Garcia, we need you to go through the DEA database and find out if any of our victims are connected to the cartel.
Penelope: Copy that.
Luke: I also got the green light from Prentiss to bring in my buddy Phil. He's got a lot of contacts in the DEA. Maybe he can help.

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.

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.

Melissa: Can I go home now?
Dr. Tara Lewis: No. We're holding you and your friends for twenty-four hours. You're all persons of interest in a murder investigation.
Melissa: Murder? What, Doug killed himself.
Dr. Tara Lewis: True. But there are still two other victims to account for. Now, normally, when there's a public suicide, it's because the suspect is the serial killer and he's killed himself out of guilt. But we can't prove that yet, so our investigation is still open.
Melissa: He said this whole thing was a false flag, which means he thought you were trying to frame him.
Dr. Tara Lewis: I know what a false flag is. The FBI doesn't frame people.

Penelope: Okay, I put the address of Robin Rhodes' mother into your GPS. Sadly, her father died when she was twelve. Her mother is Dr. Elizabeth Rhodes. She's a pretty prominent psychiatrist.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Dr. Rhodes is the one who filed the missing persons report on Robin.
Penelope: Yeah, and she was super-duper critical of the way the investigation was handled. Uh, even going so far as to threaten a civil suit against the Baltimore PD for saying that her daughter's death was just a terrible accident.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Definitely a grieving mother.

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"

Dr. Tara Lewis: It all started with Carl's text. "I'm close to finding out who it is." He was talking about Melissa, as in "I'm close to finding out who she's cheating with."
Jennifer: She was cheating with Doug?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yes. And when she found out Carl was onto her, she killed him.
David: Whoa. Slow down there, partner.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Think about it. It's the oldest motivation in the book: sex. Melissa is cunning and manipulative, and she is a psychopath, and a good one. I mean, she sat there while I laid out this entire case, she did not tip a thing. Now, Doug's prints were on the gun because of the suicide, but with Carl, Melissa could have used gloves, and...
[seeing them all looking at her]
Dr. Tara Lewis: What? Why is everybody staring at me?
Jennifer: Tara, I want to believe that. An arrest would relieve a lot of tension on this case, but...
Luke: But we don't have the evidence, and without the evidence, we're no better than the truthers.

Dr. Tara Lewis: I don't understand: why are we just finding out about this place?
Penelope: Because I just found it under a big cyber rock

Dr. Tara Lewis: [opening quotation] "The sea is dangerous, and its storms terrible. But these obstacles have never been sufficient reason to remain ashore." - Ferdinand Magellan.

Melissa: Back up. What was that term you used? Equivocal something?
Dr. Tara Lewis: An equivocal death investigation. It's an investigation where we consider all options. It could be a murder, but it could also be a suicide or an accident, or even natural causes.
Melissa: Are you saying these murders weren't murder? Is that the FBI's official position?
Dr. Tara Lewis: I'm saying we let clues guide us to a deduction. We don't jump to conclusions. But as we were flying here, our technical analyst uncovered something unusual.
Melissa: Right. Your technical analyst. That would be Penelope Garcia?
[Tara is surprised]
Melissa: Yeah. I looked up your whole team before coming in here.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Why did you do that?
Melissa: Because I'm a naturally suspicious person who wanted to get a feel for your methods. Specifically the illegal surveillance that the FBI is willing to resort to to frame innocent men and women.
Dr. Tara Lewis: As I said, the FBI doesn't frame anyone. And we certainly don't do anything illegal.
Melissa: Well, I guess that depends on what Garcia found and how she found it. So what did she find?

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

Matt: Oh, one murder don't make you a serial killer.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah, we told him that.

Dr. Tara Lewis: [closing quote] "The father said: You are always with me and everything I have is yours. But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again. He was lost and is found" - The Gospel of Luke

Stephen: We have something, but, uh... it's out there.
Emily: I'll take "out there".
Stephen: The gun store owner was more of a libertarian than you would think. He talked about how he never judged his customers or who they love.
David: That's... weird.
Stephen: Yeah, not as weird as when he mentioned Obergefell.
Emily: The Supreme Court decision that legalized gay marriage.
Stephen: You said we were missing something in the relationship between these two women. What if it's this?
Dr. Tara Lewis: The risks that Lindsey's taking, the bond she has with Cat, it's not professional. It's romantic.

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.

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: So, Monty tracked Reid's passport. Turns out he used his personal and not his work issued one, which makes sense, because he wasn't working, right? Say "right".
Dr. Tara Lewis: Mm. Working or not, he should have been briefed before leaving the country and he wasn't.
Penelope: So on a scale of one to terrible?
Dr. Tara Lewis: It's terrible. The Bureau's gonna hold it against him. He violated security protocol. I mean, as a federal agent, he's a high-value target. You know this. The brass doesn't like it when you keep them in the dark.
Penelope: Why did he keep us out of this? I didn't know he crossed the border once, let alone three times.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Three times in the last three months? What was he doing down there?
Penelope: Lying. He was lying. Every time he crossed the border, he lied to us, and he went all rogue, and got himself into all this damn trouble.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, he was making decisions with his heart and not his head.
Penelope: Which I am intimately familiar with, but none of this would have happened if he would have let us help.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, Penelope, that's what we're gonna do now. Okay?
Penelope: Well, I'm still mad at him.

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

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

Penelope: An opportunity has presented itself to me, and it is in the Silicon Valley. Global Strategem Development. They're a private research group that's expanding their strategem to include combating global environmental change.
Luke: Wow. That-that sounds perfect for you. You get to do all the good work you do at the BAU without the gore.
Penelope: Yeah, right. Wait... are you trying to get rid of me?
Luke: No. I don't want anybody going anywhere.
Penelope: Right, and I don't wanna go anywhere. I love... I mean, this is... this my home. Not this room, but, you know, the BAU is, and... come on. We're family.
Luke: Yeah. We're family, and our relationship to each other is not bound by wherever we show up to go to work.
Dr. Tara Lewis: If you have the opportunity to do something you love, Penelope, you should absolutely explore it.

Dr. Tara Lewis: [opening quotation] "If you don't know someone who's had a problem with addiction, you will." - Dana Boente.

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. Tara Lewis: [closing quotation] "The influence of a mother in the lives of her children is beyond calculation." - James E. Faust

Dr. Tara Lewis: [Garcia leaves a briefing] Was it something I said?
Emily: No. That's not you. Um... we were working Ferell's case when she was shot.
Luke: Garcia was shot?
Jennifer: Ten years ago. Happened right in front of her apartment building.
Matt: Was it a random act of violence?
Jennifer: No. He lured her into dating him before she IDed him. Turns out he was a dirty cop named Colby Baylor and she was getting close to exposing him.
Luke: So he shot her. Where is he now?
Jennifer: He's dead.
Luke: Good.
Emily: Let's just give her a few minutes.

Emily: Uh, Tara, there's just one more thing. The prison is on full lockdown, but I got you an exemption from the no-visitor rule.
Dr. Tara Lewis: How'd you manage that?
Emily: Medical necessity.
[Tara frowns]
Emily: You are a doctor, right?
Dr. Tara Lewis: I have earned a doctorale degree, yes.
Emily: MD, PhD, now is not the time to split hairs. Tomorrow, Reid is your patient, so go in there and act doctorly.
Dr. Tara Lewis: I will make sure to pack my stethoscope.

Penelope: I'd like to direct your attention to two oddities. Oddity number one is Ally Macready's medical exam.
Emily: Give us the headline.
Penelope: Despite outward appearances, Ally had a sum total of zero wounds on her. So whose blood is on her clothes, you ask? DNA report is not back yet, but typing and matching points to the other girls.
Dr. Tara Lewis: She could have escaped before the unsub got to her. Holding three girls takes a lot of control.
Emily: What's oddity number two?
Penelope: That would be a text exchange between Bethany and Chelsea. Bethany says to Chelsea "What if we do it in the woods tonight?", to which Chelsea responds "We'd have to do it fast. Ally can't see us coming."
Dr. Spencer Reid: Vaguely threatening. Although Ally didn't say anything like that in her interview.
David: Two of the girls had some agenda besides the Tall Man. We need to see if it played a part in their disappearance.
Jennifer: Chelsea's dad, Tom, he dated my sister in high school, so I can talk to him.
Emily: Good. Do that. We will divide and conquer when we land. We will investigate this as if Bethany and Chelsea are still alive, and we will not sleep until we find them.

Dr. Tara Lewis: Don't forget boredom. I mean, she had a really exciting couple of days there. Not to brag, but we are a more scintillating company than most inmates and guards
Dr. Spencer Reid: I overheard the arrangement you made with Antonia in German. You promised to tell her truth after the case was over if she helped us out. You gonna follow through?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Hell no. Look, of all the serial killer types, the ones I find most dangerous are the hyper-intelligent ones that get off more on the mind games than the killing. They're like vampires, ready to suck your soul dry and file your information away for a rainy day
Jennifer: Yeah, that's Antonia
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, we got what we from her. I say we move on

Penelope: Elizabeth Wise, uh, she lives alone, currently single.
Jennifer: Has she gone to the police?
Penelope: Many times, and they haven't been able to find who is doing it, let alone stop them.
Luke: The violent content of the messages seems to be escalating. "You ruined the good thing we had", "You bang everyone else, but not me." Sounds to me like an incel.
Penelope: Ugh. Icky online culture for the involuntarily celibate.
Jennifer: Usually, they just stay behind the screen. They're too cowardly to have a personal confrontation.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah, these surveillance photos really raise the threat level. I mean, if he knows her routine this well, it's gotta be an ex-boyfriend.
Penelope: [sliding a sheet of paper over] I've compiled that list. Tara, JJ, see what stands out.
Jennifer: [slightly confused] Okay.
Penelope: Alvez, you'll be going with me to Elizabeth's apartment. Now, she says no one's broken in but I'm not convinced, so let me get her keys so we can check it out. And now we will...
[standing]
Penelope: Wheels up.
Luke: We're not going anywhere.
Penelope: [indicating her mouth] Shut up, shut up! Just because you look like that doesn't mean you can do whatever you want with this part of your face. How does Prentiss make this look easy?
[moving to leave]
Penelope: Okay, come on. Jeez!
Jennifer: Mmm, have fun.

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

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: We're looking at a case of counterfeit deviance. If Asher is autistic, he has trouble reading social clues.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah, but in this case, we're dealing with somebody high-functioning.
Dr. Spencer Reid: What used to be labeled Asperger syndrome.
Dr. Tara Lewis: And that's where the counterfeit deviance comes in.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Documented examples include high-functioning autistics who collect child porn to pretend to plan a school shooting. They know that there's power in those images and those actions, but for them, there's no paraphilia behind it. They don't derive pleasure from it. What I don't see is someone who's interested in explosives. We need to rule out...
Jennifer: That someone's pulling his strings just like he's been pulling ours.

Dr. Spencer Reid: We said the timing of the unsub's abductions may be important to him.
Captain: Why is that?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Victim number one: Dr. Roberta Childs. She signed out of the hospital at 11:50 p.m. Now, victim number two, Diane Pearl, her home alarm system was tripped at 11:52 p.m., Victim three, Elise Waterston, she was a no-show for an 11:55 pickup from her dental office. Cell phone records show that Allie Leighton, the fourth victim, ended her phone call at 11:57 p.m., and lastly, Paige Burrell, the digital clock where she was abducted read 11:57:30.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Okay, so based on your timeline, our unsub's counting up to 12:00.
Dr. Spencer Reid: No, he's counting down.
Captain: Counting down to what?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I think the unsub's abducting women based on the doomsday clock.
Captain: And what's that?
David: The symbolic clock that warns the world how close we are to total destruction.
Matt: Midnight on the clock represents a hypothetical global catatrophe, like a... a nuclear war. Uh, the number of minutes to midnight stand for how soon that could happen.

David: Prentiss won't be joining us. She's on Reid duty for the time being. This one was referred to us by a fellow federal agency, the National Transportation Safety Board.
Penelope: So, last week, two separate incidents. Two separate vehicles hit two separate pedestrians, crashed on the same stretch of road in Bradenton, Florida, just outside of Sarasota.
Luke: And they're sure they were both accidents?
David: No, they don't think so.
Penelope: Both vehicles were 2013 Meridians, and both drivers said they lost control of the cars.
David: The first pedestrian is alive, but the second one died of his injuries.
Dr. Tara Lewis: And it wasn't a vehicle defect?
David: That's what the NTSB suspected, but they've done extensive tests and they've ruled that out, along with hazardous road conditions.
Jennifer: [looking at the report] And they're saying driver error is unlikely, though the drivers suffered head injuries in the crashes and they can't recall any of the details.
Stephen: Same make and model vehicle, two drivers saying they lost control. It sounds like they're thinking hacker.
David: Could be. Most cars made after 2009, regardless of make or model, are vulnerable to hacking.
Luke: Is there any footage of the crashes?
Penelope: Oh, yeah. Middle school security camera caught the moments of impact. Brace yourselves. It ain't pretty. Here we go.
Dr. Tara Lewis: [Garcia plays the camera footage] Oh, god. No swerving, no braking, and an unsub turning cars into murder weapons. That's terrifying.
Luke: It could be a whole new frontier for serial killers.
David: Well, Garcia, since your area of expertise is relevant on this one, I want you to join us in the field.
Penelope: [excited] Me? Going wheels up? Sir, yes, sir.
David: Great. Wheels up in twenty.

Jennifer: We know you didn't do anything wrong.
Dr. Spencer Reid: But I should have told you guys I was going there. I never... never imagined in a million years it would have turned out like this.
Jennifer: No one thought that this could have happened. Look, you're not in this alone anymore. Okay? No secrets.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Deal.
Penelope: [moving to hug him] My turn. Come here, you.
[letting him go]
Penelope: Oh, my god. Your color's better. All I had to look at was that mug shot, and it had me really worried.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah, we all were.
Stephen: Glad you're back.

David: Looks like local PD is still working on IDing the victims.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Has a cause of death been determined?
Penelope: No, but the coroner did reveal this one super-icky detail: all of the bodies had been drained of their blood.
Emily: Let's make sure to check on that first thing.

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.

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

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.

Dr. Tara Lewis: [walks in, sight] Okay, do you remember the male cadaver they retrieved from that shed?
Luke: Not the sort of things one forgets
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, allow me to make it a little more unforgettable...

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.

Melissa: Say something. We need to make sure the levels are good.
Dr. Tara Lewis: I'm Dr. Tara Lewis of the BAU...
Melissa: No, no. Say something interesting. Tell me how you really feel about truthers. My audience could use a sense of the FBI's bias against us.
Dr. Tara Lewis: I got my PhD by taking a theory, testing it, and then proving my results. Now, proving my results means that I take those results and I turn them over to other scientists to see if they can replicate them, and if they can't, then my theory was wrong. See, that's science. A consensus of evidence that we call truth. What you do is different.
Melissa: No, it's not.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yes, it is, because your theories are unprovable. Give me one.
Melissa: Uh... President Obama wasn't born here. He was born in Kenya.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Perfect. That's perfect. So, I show you his long-form birth certificate, and then you would respond that it's been faked because that's how deep the conspiracy goes. And then that becomes your argument against any evidence that I provide. It's a cognitive trick that keeps you from having to admit that life is messy. It's random. Not everything fits the easy explanation that a conspiracy gives you.

Dr. Tara Lewis: Ally, open your eyes and focus on the metronome. Now help us find your friends. Describe the room.
Ally: There's the door that he came through. It's like I'm in a tunnel or something. There's windows along the walls, but they're covered in this weird cloth.
Jennifer: Ally, what's on the ceiling?
Ally: Stars. But they're pink.
Jennifer: I know where they are.
[cut to the precinct]
Jennifer: [taking a map off the murder board] It's a train car. It's abandoned. We used to have parties there back when I was in high school. Somebody put pink stars up on the ceiling. Okay, so it's-it's right here if it hasn't moved.
Emily: Okay, you'll lead SWAT. Tell them to watch their front sight. There are teenagers in there.

Emily: What have you got?
Dr. Tara Lewis: We looked for overlap with all of Lindsey's known aliases and we found one. She made multiple purchases using multiple IDs at the same location.
Stephen: Fords Gun Shop.
Dr. Tara Lewis: And wouldn't you know it, he has the largest selection of hollow point ammunition in the Tri-State area.
Emily: Go, quickly. We are on Cat's clock now. We only have three and a half hours left.

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.

Luke: This is Eduardo Ramos. He's the most feared sicario in Mexico.
Penelope: A sicario's a hit man, yeah?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Specifically, hit men that work for Mexican drug cartels.
Luke: Now, he's with the Martinez cartel. They're one of the most dangerous around.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, look, the M.O. of these guys is typically brutal. What makes Ramos most feared?
Luke: His unrelenting focus and a complete lack of boundaries. He's got no moral code. I mean, if you're his target, he doesn't stop until you're dead. If that means going through every man, woman, and child, he does. No hesitation. Someone else, you might be able to buy your way out of it. Not Ramos. There's no bribing him, there's no appealing to his senses. Eduardo Ramos is a killing machine that never fails.

Dr. Tara Lewis: [closing quotation] "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts." - Daniel Patrick Moynihan.

Emily: What's your name?
[pulling her badge out]
Emily: I'm Emily. Emily Prentiss. It says right here. The reason I'm asking is so we can have a conversation.
Doug: Doug. I'm Doug.
Emily: Great, Doug. Let's just take a second. Let's think through the logic of this.
Doug: I... I didn't do any of this!
Emily: We're not saying you did, but you are making things worse with that gun.
Dr. Tara Lewis: The reason we asked you here, the only reason, is to listen. That's all. Okay? So just listen.
Emily: Listen. Put the gun down.
Doug: [seeing something] I know a false flag when I see one. You bitch!
Emily: No!
[Doug puts the gun to his temple and pulls the trigger]

Dr. Tara Lewis: You would not believe how long it took me to pick out that baby rocker for them.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I wouldn't beat yourself up. You know, it's not easy to choose the appropriate gift in this case.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah, but I think my inability to choose stems from a recurring dream I've had since I was a kid. I'm at a birthday, and when a person finally opens their gift and sees it, they burst into tears.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Freud would say that your dream represents a disguised fulfillment of a repressed wish.
Dr. Tara Lewis: See? That's why that guy was a genius.

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.

Dr. Tara Lewis: How you holding up?
Penelope: I've never seen him like this. I just want to fix it and I can't. It's too much for anyone. It's not fair, and it needs to stop.

Dr. Tara Lewis: No, that's not the only thing. The podcast. She... she had us right where she wanted. She could have posted the audio of our conversation to prove we were trying to cover this up, but instead she deleted it. Which she only would have done if she had revealed herself somehow.
Jennifer: She didn't say anything incriminating when I talked to her.
Emily: Me, neither.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Then it was me. She let something slip, something she doesn't want me to remember. So... what?
[flashback]
Melissa: Aurora, Orlando, Sandy Hook. The United States government shot up a bunch of empty buildings and then gathered everything up and traded it amongst themselves, because that's how plausible deniability works.
[return to real time]
Dr. Tara Lewis: She traded it.
David: Traded what?
Dr. Tara Lewis: The bullet and the shell casing. She took the evidence and she gave it to someone else.
David: And you know this because...
Dr. Tara Lewis: Think about a conspiracy theory like a pathology. What... what disgusts her, what she fears most in other people, that's the action she'll copy to justify her own belief system.
Emily: So who has the bullet?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Who else?

Dr. Warren Spitz: This woman has been dead over a month, but same C.O.D. Exsanguination due to a severed carotid, inverted pentagram carved postmortem, and all ten fingers removed.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Now, there are hestitation marks on that neck wound.
David: And he didn't remove her legs.
Dr. Warren Spitz: No. Curiously, though, there are postmortem human bite marks on the right leg.
David: Yeah, looks like he actually took a bite out of her calf.
Dr. Warren Spitz: I acquired Ferell's bite impressions from the old case. These bite marks don't match his.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, that's definitive proof there's another killer.
David: But you can't teach someone to be turned on by cannibalism. So whoever this unsub is, he must have had that desire all along.
Dr. Tara Lewis: What about her stomach contents?
Dr. Warren Spitz: Nothing in her stomach at all.
David: So she's probably his first victim.

Dr. Tara Lewis: Like the seven we found in the storage?
David: As it turns out, this cult has killed more than seven.
Jennifer: How many?
Jennifer: 299.

Dr. Tara Lewis: [opening quote] "A sibling may be the keeper of one's' identity, the only persons with the keys to one's unfettered, more fundamental self" - Marian Sandmaier

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.

Doug: I'm going back to San Francisco
Doug: Things haven't been good with us for a while now
Dr. Tara Lewis: Have a nice flight

Dr. Tara Lewis: [closing quotation] "The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other's life." - Richard Bach.

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.

Luke: Five years ago, I was working a case with the DEA and Mexican police force. Our goal was to arrest Ramos.
Dr. Tara Lewis: And did you?
Luke: It got complicated.

Dr. Tara Lewis: This has got to be Scratch. He was laying low. Now we know why.
Luke: Crossing the border as a fugitive is a huge risk.
Emily: The reward is greater. He's been punishing the team. Now his target is Reid.
Stephen: Peter Lewis dropped off the map after attacking Tara's family. Maybe he's been hiding in Mexico this whole time.
Emily: We also have to consider this isn't related to him.
David: Who else would it be?
Luke: Drug cartels. Could have threatened Reid and used him as a mule.
David: Agreed. This could simply be a case of bad luck. Reid was in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Jennifer: Spence's mom is okay. The home nurse he hired said all is stable.
Penelope: Oh, thank the stars.
Luke: How long did he tell the nurse he'd be gone?
Jennifer: Uh, three days.
Emily: That sounds reasonable. After the Palm Springs case, Reid said he had to get back to Houston to talk to his mom's doctor.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, Houston is only a five hour drive from the border.

Matt: I gotta say, Coleman's bunker was pretty impressive.
Emily: Yeah, but not where I want to spend my last day on Earth.
Matt: Yeah? Where would you?
Emily: Never thought about it.
Penelope: I... I don't want to think about it.
Dr. Tara Lewis: I would definitely be on a beach.
Luke: I think I'd prefer the mountains.
Matt: I'd be with my family.
Jennifer: Same. Spence?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Paris with my mom. She liked Paris.
Dr. Tara Lewis: You know, something tells me Dave has this all planned out.
David: Don't you know it. When the end comes, you'll find me at home enjoying a meal of carbonara a la Rossi, and if there's still time, I will adjourn to my patio to partake in a double Jack and a vintage Don Carlos.
Luke: That sounds great.
Emily: You mind if we join you?

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.

Antonia: I think, you're like me. Nobody really knows us.
[switches: "I'll help you, when]
Antonia: [you] tell the truth", the word "du" is missing in her German] Ich helfe dir wenn die Wahrheit sagst
Dr. Tara Lewis: [English: "Sure, when everything is over"] Sicher, wenn das alles vorbei ist

Emily: Scratch got deeper into my head than I care to admit, and the only way I was able to stay sane was by repeating a mantra, two words. You know what those two words were? "Wheels up." It saved my life when I wasn't sure I was gonna make it because it reminded me that you were out there fighting, so take your rest - you've earned it - but when we get back, wheels up, Matt.
Matt: Wheels up, Emily.
Emily: Wheels up, Tara.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Wheels up.
Jennifer: Wheels up.
Penelope: Wheels up.
Luke: Wheels up.
David: Damn right, wheels up
Dr. Spencer Reid: Wheels up.

David: Both of these kids were brunette. If this is about perfecting a fantasy, they're probably surrogates for somebody
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah, but who?

Dr. Tara Lewis: [Opening quote] It is claimed that Oscar Wilde wrote: "Everything in the world is about sex, except sex. Sex is about power." Except he didn't. Nobody knows who wrote it

Aaron: Morgan never calls me Aaron. Why would he start?
Jennifer: What else did he say?
Aaron: That of all people, I should understand.
Jennifer: He was talking about Foyet.
Aaron: Yes, but he mentioned that earlier. Why bring it up again?
David: He wanted you to relate to his rage and back off?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Is there any other relevance to Foyet?
Aaron: He attacked in my home. Maybe Morgan subconsciously let that slip.
Penelope: Yeah, but Morgan's house isn't red.
Dr. Spencer Reid: [realizing something] Yeah, but he's renovated a lot of houses over the years. What if it's one of those?

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.

David: [Doorbell rings] And there they are! Thanks, come in. Spence, Tara, this is Hayden Montgomery
Dr. Tara Lewis: On ma dit que vous avez une diplomatique a Paris, que je trouve très heureusement
Hayden: Vous parlez le Français très bien, madame.
[to Rossi]
Hayden: She's my favorite so far

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.

Jennifer: Emily got shut down by Peakstone.
Dr. Tara Lewis: She didn't get the unsub's name?
Jennifer: Nope. They wouldn't give it to her.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Is that even legal?
Jennifer: Unfortunately, it is. But she did get some information about how they work with contractors. She said that each departing drone pilot received a letter detailing the number of casualties from each of their missions.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Wow. Talk about a trigger.
Luke: Yeah. Especially for someone engaged in remote combat.
Dr. Tara Lewis: What seems like a video game one day could feel very different when presented as a body count.
Luke: And these contractors aren't even veterans. They don't have the post-discharge resources or even the support community that returning vets have.

Emily: Just got a call from Homeland Security.
Jennifer: Hey, what's going on?
Penelope: Mayhem. There's an ongoing situation in Silicon Valley.
Emily: What we know for sure is there's a workplace shooting in the office compound of a video gaming company called Ori-Gamey.
Luke: Yeah, they're... they're cutting-edge. They do a lot of virtual reality. I have a few of their flight simulator games.
Jennifer: We're on the case?
Emily: Homeland Security asked for our help on the ground.
Dr. Tara Lewis: What have we got?
Penelope: That.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Office shooting in California.
Matt: Are they thinking terrorism?
Penelope: They're thinking they don't know.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, that's a high-profile tech target. We can't rule out a coordinated attack or a lone wolf.
Emily: The situation's still unfolding, so everything's still on the table.
David: Do they know how many shooters they're dealing with?
Emily: Eyewitness accounts indicate a suspect was seen fleeing the building.
Jennifer: Do we have a description?
Emily: No, not yet. No ID and no one in custody.
David: Well, the sooner we get out there, the better.
Emily: We'll brief more on the jet. Wheels up in ten.

Dr. Spencer Reid: Maybe the events in our lives were set in motion a long time ago. There's an old Buddhist saying that when you meet your soulmate, remember that the act to bring you together was 500 years in the making. So always appreciate and be kind to each other.
Dr. Tara Lewis: That's lovely.
Dr. Spencer Reid: There's a corollary for friends. When you meet a true friend, you will be bound together through space and time for 500 years.
[whispering]
Dr. Spencer Reid: Which means, in the year 2200, I'm gonna get Morgan back for that practical joke he played on me last week.
Derek: Bring it, Pretty Boy. I'll be waitin' for you.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I'll be there.

Dr. Tara Lewis: Hey Rebecca, thank you for that
Rebecca: When it comes to profiling, your team is the best. It's how you prove it is the problem

Luke: That doesn't make any sense. How do you go from being awkward with no friends to socially skilled and manipulative?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Don't know. The guy's got no online presence or social media. Maybe it's just some kind of self-help thing and the guy got some confidence.
Luke: I don't know. He's twenty-three and up until a few weeks ago lived with his mom.
Emily: What if we were wrong and charm's not part of his game?
David: I don't think so. All those victims were smart, attractive, and out in populated areas.
Stephen: I agree. He found a way to get close, and it has to have something to do with the drugs.
Emily: Hopefully the media coverage will make it impossible for him to charm anyone without them recognizing him first.

Don: So, you're dating my daughter?
Dr. Spencer Reid: [They shake hands] Spencer Reid, sir! Not quite the way I was expecting we'd meet
Don: Well, Mike Davis aside, Max is pretty good at picking a boyfriend
David: He's not her boyfriend

Dr. Tara Lewis: So the burning was postmortem, like the others?
M.E. Dr. Aristeo Caruso: Yes, but C.O.D. was a stab wound to the back.
David: Well, just as we predicted, this is our guy. He's gone widly off pattern. Burned the clinic, attacked the doctor here. He's devolving.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, maybe he finally figured out that killing sick people won't stop the spread of disease.
David: The clinic was probably a stark reminder of the failure of modern medicine.
Dr. Tara Lewis: It shows an evolution of thought, and he's gone from putting the blameless out of their misery to punishing those in the medical profession.
David: Yeah, he's no longer on a mission of mercy, that's for sure. This could very quickly become about finding that person that he thinks is responsible for the loss he suffered.

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.

Marta: He was just a kid. I'm screaming for him to get out of the way, but he doesn't even see me coming. I close my eyes, but I hear him hit the car. That sound, ohh... I'll hear it for the rest of my life. I'm so, so sorry.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Listen to me. You did not cause that accident. You did nothing wrong.

Dr. Tara Lewis: 300 invisible soldiers of Gideon. Coincidence?
Emily: Gideon was no longer on the team when we were at the ranch. It could be connected, but...

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: Medieval medical practitioners believed that chickens could absorb illness. They would rub the birds all over the bodies of the diseased in an attempt to rid them of their sickness.
Jennifer: See, uh, this is a venetian bird mask. During the 17th century, doctors would stuff these with herbs and spices and wear them to protect against infection.
Chief: From the plague.
Dr. Spencer Reid: That, along with the burning of the bodies and the burial ground, Tremé Cemetery number two, and the fact that it was originally built to house victims who died from cholera and smallpox, tells us that this unsub believes himself to be a modern-day plague doctor.
Dr. Tara Lewis: A vigilante or angel of death whose job it is to stop sick people from spreading disease.
David: Our unsub wants to eradicate not just the sick, but the sickness within them.
Dr. Spencer Reid: In fact, it wasn't until the middle of the 19th century that humorism, the belief that illness was caused by an imbalance of the fluids in the body, was discredited. Before that, it was believed that there were four humors in the body: black bile, yellow bile, blood, and phlegm, all of which were susceptible to miasma, or bad air, that carried disease.
David: Our unsub's fixation on these ancient medical practices speaks to a very specific kind of stressor.
Jennifer: It indicates a distrust in modern medicine. He or a loved one may have suffered a loss brought on by illness or disease.
David: Or he may blame modern medicine for failing to save a loved one.
Jennifer: Our unsub was living on the fringes of society. His van was not just his means of transport, it was his whole life. And now that he's lost it, there's no telling what he'll do next.

Emily: What is it, Garcia?
Penelope: Bob Turner, our missing canyon dweller, has gone from off the grid to gridlocked. Turns out Bob Turner isn't even his real name. It's Casey Peters, and Mr. Peters has what I would diplomatically call a sketchy history.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Sketchy how?
Penelope: Embezzlement, fraud, forgery. I could go on. He's lived mostly in Florida and the Carolinas.
Emily: What brought him to Ramona, California?
Penelope: A place to hide out, apparently.
Dr. Tara Lewis: From what?
Penelope: Something to do with money. Months before the canyon was flooded, federal Treasury agents were closing in on him.
Emily: And that's when he pulled up stakes in Ramona and vanished. Do we know where he is now?
Penelope: We do not, but I am on the hunt. I am sending you a DMV photo of Casey Peters from his Bob Turner days.
Emily: [looking at the photo on her phone] I know that guy. From the lake.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah. That's the guy who found the coins.

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.

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.

Dr. Tara Lewis: What's up, Rossi?
David: They identified the bird DNA in Henning as coming from a scarlet macaw
Jennifer: Hm, hm, and?
David: That got me thinking about turritopsis dohrnii
Dr. Tara Lewis: Turri... what?
David: Eh, it's called the immortal jellyfish. Uhm,
[starts reading from his notes]
David: endlessly recycles its own cells for a process called trans-differentiation, a kind of lineage reprogramming
Jennifer: Oh my goodness! Dr. Spencer Reid, master of disguise!
David: No disguise, I called the kid last night

David: He's gone by the name Eddie.
Dr. Elizabeth Rhodes: Well, I know some Eddies, but none that look like this young man.
Dr. Tara Lewis: But you are familiar with a Dennis Kirkwood?
Dr. Elizabeth Rhodes: Of course I am, Dr. Lewis.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Mr. Kirkwood was murdered, and over the last week, two of his close friends were killed as well, an Athony Nakamura and a Shaun Tate.
David: And we have reason to believe that this young man, Eddie here, murdered these men out of a desire to avenge your daughter's death.
Dr. Elizabeth Rhodes: Well, I'm really not sure how you expect me to respond to all of this.
David: Well, actually, we were hoping that you might know something about Eddie.
Dr. Elizabeth Rhodes: I hold on to two memories of my child that I shall never be able to let go. Her precious face, the first time I held it, and what was left of her face when the coroner pulled back the sheet and asked if I could identify her.

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. Tara Lewis: [opening quote] "It is the very error of the moon: she comes more nearer to the earth than she was wont and she makes man mad" - William Shakespeare

Bob: Carl Lee. His name was Carl Lee. And the reason that sticks out is because he asked me to write a dedication on the inside cover of the book. It's something I add for an extra twenty bucks. You know? And sometimes I use the wild man font and the truthers all go "Oh, wow, look. He actually wrote stuff in my book."
Emily: [dialing her phone] Tara, we have something.
[cut to Tara at Carl's apartment]
Dr. Tara Lewis: Found it, Emily.
Emily: What does it say?
Dr. Tara Lewis: "To my darling Melissa. Love always, Carl."

Dr. Tara Lewis: [after breaking up with her fiancé the previous night] Morning, guys! How do I look?
David: [Confused] You look great?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Went on a diet last night. Lost 185 pounds

Dr. Warren Spitz: I was deputy coroner in 2007. Didn't think I'd ever see this again. Legs and fingers removed antemortem. Inverted pentagram postmortem.
David: Cause of death exsanguination?
Dr. Warren Spitz: Mm-hmm. Due to bisection of the carotid when her throat was slashed. Just like before.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Looks like blunt force trauma to the head, as well.
Dr. Warren Spitz: Again, just like the historic cases. Whoever is doing this has Ferell down to a "T".
David: That doesn't make sense. Ferell's been locked up for years. Why would someone be copying him now?
Dr. Warren Spitz: Can't tell you, but this copycat seems to be an exact copy.
Dr. Tara Lewis: How so?
Dr. Warren Spitz: I x-rayed the stomach contents before I removed them. Five fingers in the stomach, fed to the victim just prior to her death, none of them hers.
David: Only Ferell knew that signature aspect. We never released it to the public.

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.

Stephen: My old unit chief at B.A.P. has a call in to the best legal counsel the Bureau has to offer.
Penelope: We need a dream team.
Stephen: That's what we'll get.
Dr. Tara Lewis: [approaching] Cruz said we need Reid's work history, performance reviews, commendations, and reprimands if there are any, and we need them in the next three minutes.
Jennifer: Yeah, Garcia and I compiled the list just in case.
Penelope: [on her phone] It's done. It's sent.
Dr. Tara Lewis: All right. Now we wait.

Luke: Victimology is also tough on this one. Garcia, still nothing that connect the victims?
Penelope: They're Homo Sapiens all on the planet earth, besides that their age, race, ethnicity it's all one big mesh up
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, they have one thing in common: the unsub wanted them all death

Matt: Now, Anthony Nakamura's autopsy is still pending, but Shaun Tate's autopsy didn't indicate that our unsub has any surgical expertise. Uh... just tore a guy's heart out.
Luke: Yeah, our unsub is acting on some pretty sadistic impulses right now.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah, impulses likely driven by a need to punish or to seek retribution for some profound personal grievance.
Emily: If this is our unsub's twisted payback, where are the hearts? Wouldn't he just get rid of them nearby, throw them away like trash?
Matt: You'd assume that if he's keeping them as souvenirs or trophies that they must mean something to him.
David: Oh, I think we need to be careful not to walk into the weeds with the, um, obvious symbolism going on here.
Emily: Right. Unfortunately, we're still down a man with Reid finishing up his classes, so, JJ, you and I will help Garcia with the victimologies here. Dave, Tara, check out Anthony Nakamura's autopsy. Luke, Matt, you're gonna need to inspect the dump sites in Baltimore and Rockville. Something tells me this is unsub is far from gratifying his sadistic urges.

Jennifer: He told Emily he was gonna talk to his mom's doctor. If that was true, we all assumed it was the doctor from the clinic, but maybe it was this Rosa Medina.
Dr. Tara Lewis: And she could be being cautious, which is why we haven't been able to find any communication between them.
Luke: And why should she be cautious?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, because in 2015, sixty holistic doctors across the United States died mysteriously. And some were accidents, others violent attacks, others were deemed suicide. Conspiracy theorists believe these doctors were targeted fatally by pharmaceutical companies for their belief in holistic practice.
Stephen: Well, then Rosa Medina might not be her real name.
Penelope: You think she might have an alias?
Stephen: Look, I've seen it plenty of times. If she's afraid of consequences, maybe she used an anagram. How many holistic doctors with connections between Texas and Mexico?
Penelope: [typing on her computer] Uh... Sophia Flores. Ana Sorel. Nadie Ramos. Juliet Hernandez.
Stephen: [writing on his legal pad] What's the story with Nadie Ramos?
Penelope: Uh... uh, let's see. She specializes in experimental drugs that reverse brain degeneration.
Stephen: Have you got a photo?
Penelope: Yup. Sending it to you guys right now.

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...

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?

Sheryl: He did say "we" a lot, and talked about a special friend, but I never saw anyone else.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Did you ever hear anything that might have indicated someone else was actually involved?
Sheryl: I remember once I heard footsteps upstairs. He dropped everything and left in a hurry.
David: Can you think back to when you were taken in the woods? Did you get a chance to see who grabbed you?
Sheryl: No. I'm sorry. I was blindsided. All I remember is waking up in the trunk of a car. There was a police siren and the car pulled over. I was banging on the inside of the trunk.
David: You were abducted in the afternoon, but that cop pulled you over at night. Where were you in between?
Sheryl: When I first woke up in the trunk, we weren't moving. We were inside a building. I was unconscious when we got there. But I remember a train passing by woke me up. It seems like it took forever for that train to go by.

Dr. Tara Lewis: [texting a picture to Rossi] Look familiar?
David: [comparing it to his own crime scene picture] Holy shit.
[dialing her number]
David: You're kidding me, right?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Look, what are the chances we have identical footlockers on opposite coasts?
David: I would have bet the farm I was chasing a 40-something unsub with experience. Maybe the 19-year-old is getting help from the 40-something with experience.
Dr. Tara Lewis: We've gotta get that shipping container transferred to Quantico, right?
David: We need all eyes on this.

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.

Penelope: I sent the rest of the class home. Thank you guys for coming in. I know you have a day off.
Jennifer: Well, Will totally has the sleepover covered, so I am happy to be here.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah, and as long as I make it to dinner with my dad, I'm good. I mean, we should be able to knock this out by the end of the day.
Penelope: Oh. Now, should we bring in the rest of the team?
[pointing at Luke]
Penelope: Because we do have that holding us up.
Luke: Do you remember, like, thirty seconds ago when you thanked us? Yeah. We were so young then.

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.

Emily: This geographic profile covers the entire city. He's used all five boroughs to either abduct or dump his victims.
David: He grew up in this apartment and it took a concerted effort for him to come back here and use it like this. So location is important to him.
Dr. Tara Lewis: If he sticks to his pattern, she'll be in her twenties.
Emily: He blends in, he appears nonthreatening, and he's attractive; all traits that immediately lower most people's defenses.
Luke: Because of his job, he's also physically strong.
Stephen: So not only does he have the tools manipulate his victims, he has the strength of overpower them, as well.
David: We also think he uses MDMA as part of his ruse.
Luke: As you know, MDMA is a popular drug; lowers inhibitions, makes for easier targets.
Emily: Daniel Allen White will strike again, probably sooner rather than later. We need to find him before he does.

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. 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: By the time we got there, David was gone. He's in the wind.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, Garcia finally has a list compiled of David Kirkwood's party guests. We have federal marshals placing the rest of them into protective custody as we speak.
Emily: Good. Only I'm not so sure those men are on David's mind right now.
David: But if he feels betrayed by his idealized maternal figure, he might just decide to kill himself.
Emily: Or devolve to the point where he finally subscribes to his father's psychotic rage toward women.
David: Which means you'd be his target.
Emily: [realizing] No, not me.
David: [breaking into Dr. Rhodes' home, gun drawn] You really should answer my calls. You lied to me.

Dr. Tara Lewis: Hey, what's the matter?
Penelope: Luke and Lisa.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Wh-what about 'em?
Penelope: I-I don't know, it's just a gut call, but-but I think... I think Lisa's in trouble. Matt's on his way to their house right now.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Okay, I'll get Rossi and JJ. We'll meet him there.
Penelope: Okay.
[as Tara leaves]
Penelope: Oh, dear god. Oh, dear god, please not again. This team has gone through enough.

Matt: Well I talk to Tom Mitchell and Toby Stemple's wives and they both swear their husbands would never frequent prostitutes
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, they never do, until they do

Chief: I can only image what brings a man to do something like this
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, in our experiences there is always an explanation, even if it only makes sense to the unsub

Emily: The rest of us need to find Lindsay ASAP.
Luke: I know a marshal that can help cut through WITSEC's red tape.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah, I'm friendly with some people at homeland security.
David: I have a buddy at the D.O.J. Lost a lot of money to him at a poker; he owes me.

Melissa: Wow.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Does that mean something to you?
Melissa: [scoffs] Of course that means something to me. "Catcher in the Rye"'s been linked to multiple killers since it was first published. And when Mark David Chapman shot John Lennon, he said "Read 'Catcher in the Rye'. That's my statement." It was found on John Hinckley's bookshelf after he shot Reagan. Oswald, Manson, Robert Bardo, they were all obsessed with it. It was the original brainwashing tool of the United States government.
Dr. Tara Lewis: I wouldn't call it that.
Melissa: Of course you wouldn't. Because then you'd have to admit how sophisticated the whole-scale duping of this nation has become.
Dr. Tara Lewis: I'm not following you.
Melissa: Aurora, Orlando, Sandy Hook. The United States government shot up a bunch of empty buildings and then gathered everything up and traded it amongst themselves because that's how plausible deniability works.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Sandy Hook was staged?
Melissa: Sandy Hook was staged the worst. All those actors they threw in front of cameras to be grieving parents. I was screaming at my television set "You're lying!". And if the would lie about that, then they would absolutely lie about a metal detector. So let me make one thing clear moving forward. When I say "they", I mean you.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Give me one second.
[standing to leave, she walks across the bullpen into an empty office and shuts the door]
Dr. Tara Lewis: SON OF A...!
Sheriff: [watching with Prentiss] What the hell kind of outfit you running here, Agent?

Dr. Spencer Reid: You know, the sand in the eyes could be a purely symbolic gesture. Uh, the Sandman was a mythical character who would sprinkle magic dust in the eyes of children while they slept
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah, but I thought he was benevolent figure, a bringer of good dreams
Dr. Spencer Reid: Not always. In one version of the myth, he would actually pop the eyeballs out of kids, used it for food for his own offspring
Dr. Tara Lewis: Geez, I stand corrected!

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.

Emily: When David Smith was eight years old, his serial killer father used him as bait to lure his victims. David became so inured to this behavior that he actually lured his father's last victim without even being prompted.
Dr. Tara Lewis: What happened to David after his father was arrested? Was CPS able to reunite him with his mother?
Emily: They were. She didn't want him. So I kept tabs on his foster care and his therapy. Fortunately, about a year later, Kate and Alan Addison adopted David. They decided to change his name to Edward, and they moved to Baltimore in 2011.
Matt: Did you continue to keep in touch with him?
Emily: I wish I could have, but... anyway, the last time I checked on David, he was doing about as well as one could expect.

Emily: You want to talk about it?
Dr. Tara Lewis: No.
Emily: It's okay to tap out if you want.
Dr. Tara Lewis: No. Emily, I can do this.
Emily: Has she said anything that points to her involvement in the murders? Have you gotten any answers out of her?
[Tara shakes her head no]
Emily: Maybe it's time to change up the strategy.

Aaron: We're looking for a family annihilator. We believe he's a white male in his early to mid thirties. He is intelligent, well-organized, and meticulous.
David: Family annihilators are often quick and ruthless, but this unsub prolongs the suffering of his victims.
Dr. Tara Lewis: He appears to kill in stages. First the father, then the mother, and finally the child.
Derek: The mother seems to be the primary target of the unsub's rage. She is forced to endure a sense of helplessness for up to an hour while her child is in danger.
Sgt. Natalie Whitfield: So we're dealing with a sadist?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Yes, but not sadism as we typically think of it. Despite the savagery of the attacks, the killer does not derive gratification from inflicting pain; it's from observing the panic in his victims. The sadism is psychological.
Derek: Something may have happened in the unsub's childhood where he felt unprotected. Perhaps his own mother turned a blind eye to a real or perceived danger.
Aaron: And this could explain the ritual of placing sand and glue in the parents' eyes, symbolically blinding them as punishment.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Ellie Zumwalt survived her injuries, and this may discourage this unsub and make him more cautious.
David: Or have the opposite effect. It could infuriate him and spur him to attack again soon with increased violence.

David: We're very sorry for your loss.
Dr. Elizabeth Rhodes: And I'm very sorry that it is your job to hunt down this Eddie.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Because you don't believe the police conclusion about your daughter's death. You believe that Dennis Kirkwood murdered her and that his friends lied to protect him.
Dr. Elizabeth Rhodes: It is an absolute fact.
David: Baltimore police would disagree.
Dr. Elizabeth Rhodes: And I would say that the Baltimore police is just a men's club that collects its dues from rich, entitled men like Kirkwood. You want to talk about believe, Dr. Lewis? Let's talk about the men who believe that they're untouchable because of their wealth. I know the truth. Robin meant nothing to them.
David: But she does mean something to this young man. And if you're protecting him for any reason...
Dr. Elizabeth Rhodes: I wish I knew this man, because I would thank him.

Penelope: [on the BAU jet] Not to be critical or anything, but this place could really use a splash of color.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Really? I find the neutral tones soothing.
Jennifer: Yeah, and they're a great background for when you're on the big screen.
Penelope: [pleased, but feigning a coy modesty] What, you mean I'm the splash of color? Stop it.

David: I married the third ex-Mrs. Rossi at a drive-in wedding chapel in Las Vegas. I had an Elvis impersonator perform the ceremony.
Dr. Tara Lewis: [snickering] You're kidding.
Aaron: Wait for it.
David: I'm playing 21. I've got a streak going, I can't lose even if I try. Krystall's the dealer; one thing leads to another... I should have known it wouldn't last. Krystall spelled her name with a "K" and two "L"s. We sobered up the next morning, the divorce was... was just as quick. I'll never make that mistake again.
Derek: What, getting married or having the King of rock and roll as your justice of the peace?
David: Both.
[in an Elvis impression]
David: Thank you very much.

Dr. Tara Lewis: This unsub has been back and forth across the city at all hours of the day, so he's clearly using some kind of vehicle to hunt.
Jennifer: Well, he's most likely unemployed.
Dr. Spencer Reid: We may not understand his ritual, but we know he feels an overwhelming need to complete it; enough to risk going back to the area despite a heavy police presence. These cemeteries are important to him, if not for personal reasons, then for what they represent.
Jennifer: So, did he lose someone? Is that what triggered all of this?
Luke: We should increase patrols in and around the graveyard and within a two-mile radius, and if they are important to him, he'll probably revisit.
Jennifer: And ketamine is available on the street, but it's pricey, so, uh, we should also check in to vet offices, medical providers, see if any of them have had any recent break-ins.

Dr. Tara Lewis: Rossi just called. They just recovered another body from the lake. Now, it was all done covertly, so hopefully the unsub is unaware.
Jennifer: Okay, well, we profiled the unsub was stuck in early adolescence. Something had to have happened to him, what, twenty years ago, to cause the shock to his system.
Dr. Tara Lewis: You're right. I mean, if this is arrested development, something arrested it.
Luke: The reservoir was created around that time.
Jennifer: Yeah. What if the killer's trauma occurred out there before the reservoir was formed?
Luke: Or during.

Dr. Tara Lewis: I just feel I can't understand others' emotions if I don't deal with my own, you know?
David: The best way out is always through
Dr. Tara Lewis: Too bad it's not always the easiest one
David: You're not kidding

Emily: Any information on the first two victims?
Dr. Tara Lewis: Not much on Ben Stiles. His wife died ten years ago and he pretty much kept to himself after that. He had health issues. Barely went out.
Matt: So that should make it easier to narrow down who had access to him or knew about that coin collection.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Which was just some silver dollars, by the way. Not worth much. But it was more of a hobby with Stiles.
Sheriff: [entering] I just got a call from up at Lake Palmer. Ben Stiles' coin collection is scattered all along the shore.

David: I'll patch in Garcia
Penelope: [Picks up the phone] I was feeling forgotten
Dr. Tara Lewis: Never!

Dr. Tara Lewis: Have a seat, Ms. Hale.
Kiara: No. I don't... why am I here?
Dr. Tara Lewis: [setting camera stills on the table] That's you with Anthony Nakamura, who was murdered, and it turns out he wasn't the only one. So have a seat.

Emily: We believe we're dealing with a lone unsub who's using a drone to kill multiple targets in each location.
Jennifer: We're looking for a white male, probably mid to late twenties an extremely tech-astute.
David: This unsub does not appear to be motivated by religious extremism or racial hatred. It's likely he's motivated by a personal vendetta.
Dr. Tara Lewis: And the drone being used is not your run-of-the-mill hobbyist drone. It's custom-built to be a fully automatic remote weapon.
Luke: We've obtained security camera footage of the device, and it shares features with certain military drones, although this one is much smaller.
Emily: As a result, we believe this unsub may be ex-military or military trained.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Most importantly, this unsub seems to have a kill list.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Rather than indiscriminately shooting as many people as possible at the first location, he specifically targeted his victims.
Matt: At this point, he's murdered seven individuals, all of them employed in the tech industry.
Jennifer: Aside from the shared industry of employment, we have not yet identified the specific connection between these seven victims.
David: The connection between them will be the key to identifying the unsub.
Dr. Spencer Reid: And until we make that connection, the unsub will continue to work his way down that list, perhaps targeting more tech companies.

John: [Lewis shows him Lindsey's picture] Huh. Nope.
Dr. Tara Lewis: You've never seen this woman. She didn't buy hollow point rounds from you?
John: No, ma'am.
Dr. Tara Lewis: See... see, it's the way you said "huh". It makes me think you have seen her and that you decided to cover and say no.
John: [in the same tone] Huh.

Dr. Tara Lewis: Projected cannibalism. The act of inducing others to consume human flesh unknowingly. You do not see that very often.
Emily: Well, projection seems to be a thing for Ferell. He fed the fingers of ten previous victims to a later one.
David: His way of telling us he was ten victims deep before we even knew he existed.
Luke: You think he's back?
Emily: Not unless he really lives up to his nickname. He's been locked up in the Hazelwood Psychiatric Hospital for the past ten years.
Matt: Well, then it's a copycat wanting to ride the wave of horror left in Ferell's wake.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Statistically, copycat killers tend to be vulnerable narcissists. Though overtly boastful, they harbor deep-seated feelings of inadequacy. Emulating notorious crimes makes them feel powerful.
David: Ferell was found to be mentally incapable of assisting in his own defense, so he skated without a trial.
Emily: If this unsub is anything like Ferell, he's got a taste for it. And copycats typically don't stop after one victim. Wheels up in twenty.

Penelope: I tracked the van via VIN number; say that three times fast. The vehicle was stolen from Houston, Texas eight years ago. After that, I got nada.
Matt: Well, there's no telling if or how many times it's changed hands since.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Can you get the police report and track down the original owner?
Penelope: Can do.
Matt: Hey, Garcia, anything from Prentiss?
Penelope: My crazy covert sources say that she was done with Barnes a few hours ago, but Emily's light is still on in her office, and I can't tell if that's a good thing or it's bad.
Matt: Well, she's probably just catching up on paperwork.
Penelope: Right. Totally. That's what I was telling myself, too. Yeah, okay. I'll hit you back when I have more.

Emily: Up 'till now, Cat Adams has only worked solo. But this is a partnership. So we need to figure out how these two hit women were able to work together, especially when one of them was in solitary.
Luke: And hitmen are driven by profit and self-preservation .They don't take a job unless they know all the angles.
Dr. Tara Lewis: So, to predict their behavior, we need to ask ourselves a simple question. We know why Cat wanted revenge on Reid. Why does Lindsey?
David: Ten years ago, Reid tried to talk Lindsey's father out of one last murder. Cut to last year and she finds out her BFF Cat has been arrested by the federal agent who tried to stop her daddy.
Luke: So Lindsey's emotions trumped her professionalism. She could grab and kill Reid's mother without a trace, but instead, she waltzed Diana into his prison because she wanted him and us to know that she was involved.
Emily: But there's risky and there's reckless. It's kind of hard to buy that Lindsey would commit to doing all of this just because Reid kind of sort of got in her way ten years ago. We're missing something.

Luke: Garcia, have we confirmed that this truther's even legit?
Penelope: Of course I've confirmed that, and she is. Melissa Miller has a pretty popular truther podcast, especially around Roswell. She promotes all kinds of conspiracies, but her cause celebre is staged shootings.
Matt: So she thinks the reason we have gun violence, it's been faked by the government as a pretext to revoke the Second Amendment. Nice.
Emily: It's another reason not to do this.
Jennifer: Or it's the exact reason to do this. What was tonight, other than a staged shooting, and why is she the only one willing to cooperate?
Luke: Unsubs like to insert themselves into the investigation. Profile skews male, but she could be a partner.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Okay, then if she isn't involved, I can get her to talk. I'm a forensic psychologist. I'm trained to outwit and outsmart clinical psychopaths far more dangerous than her.
Emily: But if we're wrong, she's going to post her podcast. Then what? Then we're the next example of fake news.

Penelope: [picking up here phone] Talk to me with your face, Tara Lewis
Dr. Tara Lewis: Garcia, we need you to do some more digging
Penelope: I was born with a shovel in my hand. No, a backhoe!

Doctor: The sharp-force instrument used left several deep impressions in the sternum. So I was able to cast a couple of Mikrosil molds of it.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Looks like the blade of a chisel.
Doctor: That's exactly what I would say, too. I would also say that whoever did this took advantage of the hammer that usually comes along with it.
David: Makes sense. But what doesn't make sense is our female suspect who lured Nakamura from the parking lot.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah. She doesn't look like she's got the upper body strength to shatter a sternum.
David: And if she couldn't do it, then she must have a partner who can.

Dr. Tara Lewis: [showing Melissa the recovered bullet and shell casing] You know what that is, Melissa? That is a magic bullet.
David: [branding a pair of handcuffs] Stand up. Melissa Miller, you are under arrest for the murder of Carl Lee. You have the right to remain silent. You have the right to an attorney.

David: Five years ago, the unsub takes two pregnant teens. It's obvious why he then takes an obstetrician.
Matt: If he's taken other teen girls through the years and keeping them alive, they'd all be mothers with young children now.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah, mothers and children with needs. Medical, dental, educational, and nutritional.
Luke: Yeah, and who would be better caretakers than a doctor, a dentist, a teacher, and a chef?
David: With such a large group, he'd need to control them to prevent escapes or rebellions.
Dr. Tara Lewis: And some could be staying willingly. Others because they're afraid or feel they have no choice.
Luke: You know, those are all reasons given by ex-cult members when asked why they didn't leave sooner.
Matt: This has the aspects of a cult, but members typically join by their own volition, not abducted.
David: There's nothing typical about this case.

Luke: First Barnes pulls you in for a late-night meeting, then Prentiss. I mean, it feels like something's going on.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Yeah, and why all the urgency? I mean, couldn't it have waited 'till we all got back?
David: Something must have triggered an internal review.
Dr. Spencer Reid: It's me. It's been almost a year since my arrest in Mexico.
Jennifer: It's just an annual review. Standard operating procedure.
Luke: Matt, you worked with Barnes on your last assignment. How much trouble are we in?
Matt: I mean, I hate to say it, but this is the exact same thing that she did with the IRT before disbanding the unit. She started with the head of the team, then she worked her way down. She tried to pit us against each other.
David: Barnes' reputation precedes her. She's climbed the ranks well.
Dr. Tara Lewis: Well, clearly she's good at her job.
Dr. Spencer Reid: We're better.
Jennifer: And we haven't done anything wrong. We can't worry about this right now because we have a case. People need our help.
