Quotes6

  • Penelope Garcia: Oh, hey, guys. Hey. I just wanted to see what was going on. Hi, hello.
  • Emily Prentiss: This better be important, Garcia.
  • Penelope Garcia: Oh, it's nothing. It's just that a messenger came by the office today with some papers from escrow!
  • Emily Prentiss: No!
  • Penelope Garcia: Oh, yes. The house in Dupont Circle. You got it! Woo!
  • Aaron Hotchner: Congratulations!
  • David Rossi: [sees Prentiss's smile fade] Six seconds. Fastest case of buyer's remorse ever.
  • Aaron Hotchner: [voiceover] "Sooner murder an infant in its cradle than nurse unacted desires." - William Blake.
  • Derek Morgan: What do we got, baby girl?
  • Penelope Garcia: Thank you, sir. We have a killing in Enid, Oklahoma, and not the capital punishment one you are thinking of right now. I'm talking about a woman named Cara Smith, who was murdered in her apartment minutes after the execution of Rodney Garrett.
  • Aaron Hotchner: A neighbor saw her front door open and discovered the body.
  • David Rossi: Look familiar?
  • Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau: Young, pretty, short blonde hair.
  • David Rossi: And stabbed directly through the heart.
  • Dr. Spencer Reid: That's exactly the way Garrett killed his victims.
  • Derek Morgan: So are we looking at a copycat?
  • Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau: Or someone creating doubt the right person was executed.
  • David Rossi: In Garrett's case, there was no doubt. His guilt was the slam dunk of all slam dunks. Prints, DNA, a confession.
  • Dr. Spencer Reid: He even led police to where he buried two of his victims.
  • Emily Prentiss: Garrett killed twenty-five women before he was caught. If this new unsub is a copycat, body count's just started.
  • Emily Prentiss: Hotch, I think I found her.
  • Aaron Hotchner: You're on speaker, Prentiss.
  • Emily Prentiss: The unsub must have circled back. He dumped her just outside the perimeter of the abduction site.
  • Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau: Same M.O.?
  • Emily Prentiss: No, she's got stab wounds all over her torso. It's bad., and, Hotch, this time he removed her scalp.
  • Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau: Overkill. He must be enraged he wasn't able to carry the murder out as planned.
  • David Rossi: So now we might have another problem. If our unsub's blueprint is out the window, this may transition him into a spree killer.
  • Emily Prentiss: There was definitely something a little strange about her.
  • Aaron Hotchner: It's curious, one woman at the center of two serial killers.
  • Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau: Yeah, what are the odds of that?
  • Dr. Spencer Reid: Astronomical. By removing from the calculations serial killer groupies...
  • Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau: Sorry I asked.
  • Derek Morgan: You know, whether she knew it or not, maybe Helen Garrett did give Dylan something. I mean, someone once said that every seed, even malignant ones, they won't grow unless they get water from someplace.
  • Aaron Hotchner: He's killed at 6 AM, noon, and 6 PM.
  • Dr. Spencer Reid: I don't know about you guys, but I not feeling so good about the stroke of midnight.
