Jennifer Jareau
- Jennifer Jareau: Evanescence, Linkin Park, and Nickelback.
- Derek Morgan: So Herman Scobie's into that nu-metal goth stuff.
- Jennifer Jareau: Yeah, and his tramp stamp probably spells out *Massengill*. This guy doesn't ever have any Rage Against The Machine. I rock.
- Dr. Spencer Reid: How old were you when you started listening to that band?
- Jennifer Jareau: I was probably a teenager. Why?
- Dr. Spencer Reid: You know, 14 is when we start to make our own musical choices. Our cognitive development evolves at that age and we start to form our own cultural identity.
- Derek Morgan: We stop listening to the music that our parents put on and we start listening to the music that our friends listen to.
- Dr. Spencer Reid: And those musical experiences imprint on us. Our hormonal surges as teenagers may make the choices seem more personal and passionate. And later on in life we might experiment with other musical selections, but no music ever impacts us as much as that which we listen to at age 14.
- Jennifer Jareau: Herman Scobie's what, 30?
- Derek Morgan: If that.
- Jennifer Jareau: Okay, so mid to late '90s is when he started to take music seriously, stuff like this.
- Derek Morgan: And the Piano Man's songs were all early '80s.
- Dr. Spencer Reid: Which means the signature doesn't fit. Herman Scobie's too young to be the Piano Man.
- Jennifer Jareau: They wake up with no memory of the assault or how they got the permanent scar the wire leaves.
- Emily Prentiss: So he's branding his victims. How does he dose them?
- Penelope Garcia: Houston PD still isn't sure. 'Cause, you know, date rape drugs metabolize quickly, and he's keeping them for twelve hours.
- Derek Morgan: So why are they calling us in now?
- Penelope Garcia: 'Cause with these most recent attacks, this piece of work has elevated sick and twisted to a whole new dimension.
