- Dr. Spencer Reid: Stephen King once said- "Monsters are real. Ghosts are real, too. They live inside us and sometimes, they win."
- Derek Morgan: Talk to me. What is this?
- Dr. Spencer Reid: Tobias Hankel.
- Derek Morgan: Tobias Hankel drugged and tortured you for two days. He almost killed you.
- Dr. Spencer Reid: No, the altered persona of his father did those things to me. The real Tobias Hankel saved my life. He brought me back from the dead.
- Derek Morgan: So you think because of Tobias, somehow you owe Adam?
- Dr. Spencer Reid: [voiceover] Light thinks it travels faster than anything but it is wrong. No matter how fast light travels, it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it. Terry Pratchett.
- Dr. Spencer Reid: We've taken the victim into custody and let the abuser go free, I don't really, I don't see that as much of a win.
- Derek Morgan: Where are we?
- David Rossi: Honestly? Nowhere. We just watched our two most viable suspects walk out the door.
- Emily Prentiss: If Adam isn't our unsub, he has all the makings to become one someday.
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: Reid?
- Dr. Spencer Reid: Tell me the question that he spiked under in the polygraph.
- Derek Morgan: It was a control question to set the baseline.
- Dr. Spencer Reid: It was a geometric equation?
- Derek Morgan: Reid, I really think he was just intimidated. He tried, he got it wrong, but he wasn't supposed to know the answer anyway.
- Dr. Spencer Reid: What if he lied? What if... what if he knew the answer to the question but intentionally got it wrong?
- Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau: Why would he do that?
- Dr. Spencer Reid: Because he realized that he wouldn't know that answer.
- Derek Morgan: You're losing me, kid.
- Dr. Spencer Reid: Adam said he wasn't getting any rest. He takes midday naps because he's always exhausted. He has a history of blackouts, reclusive behavior, prolonged repeated abuse suffered at the hands of a dominant male who transferred abuse from his female spouse to his prepubescent child.
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: Where are you going with this?
- Dr. Spencer Reid: What if our ubsub couple isn't a couple at all?
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: Dissociative identity disorder.
- David Rossi: You think Adam's a multiple personality?
- Emily Prentiss: Well, it fits. Recurrent physical abuse, knowledge he shouldn't have. We've seen this before.
- Dr. Spencer Reid: Look at this. All right? The-the first intervention is timid. It's apprehensive, right? But then he gets knocked down... there's a moment of calm, and then his entire body language changes. I saw this exact same transformation when Adam left the station, only it wasn't rage, it was, uh... arrogance. Like... like the alter ego wanted me to know.
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: Why?
- Dr. Spencer Reid: I don't know. Power, control. All I know is the person that stared me down over there was not Adam. He's not assertive like that. He doesn't make eye contact.
- Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau: So you think the stress of the interrogation blurred the line between Adam and his alter personality?
- Dr. Spencer Reid: I think the unsub surfaced for just a moment. It-it-it knew the answer to the question, realized Adam wouldn't, and lied.
- Adam Jackson: Hey, can I ask you a question?
- Dr. Spencer Reid: Yeah.
- Adam Jackson: Um... you've seen bad stuff right?
- Dr. Spencer Reid: I have. Yeah.
- Adam Jackson: How long before you can close your eyes without it being there?
- Dr. Spencer Reid: [long pause] I'm afraid I still don't know.
- Adam Jackson: We've been friends since I was just a kid.
- Dr. Spencer Reid: Are you lovers?
- Adam Jackson: [scoffs] No.
- Dr. Spencer Reid: Well then why does she pay for everything you have?
- Adam Jackson: It's not like it's a hand out. I'm working at the hotel so I can pay her back.
- Dr. Spencer Reid: Does she pay for the drugs also?
- Adam Jackson: I - I told you, I get migraines.
- Dr. Spencer Reid: So, take a prescription.
- Adam Jackson: I thought you were different.
- Dr. Spencer Reid: What does that mean?
- Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau: National media's picked up on the story. We're gonna need to make a statement when we land.
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: We want to make people aware without obviously causing panic.
- Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau: Stress hyper-vigilance, the whole buddy system. Yeah, I'm all over it. I just don't think anyone's gonna listen.
- Dr. Spencer Reid: What do you mean?
- Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau: Come on, drunk college students don't exactly want to hear they shouldn't talk to strangers.
- Dr. Spencer Reid: Right.
- [goes to sit]
- Emily Prentiss: [to Garcia on the webcam] Was there any DNA left on the scene?
- Penelope Garcia: Uh, yeah. Too *much* DNA. This portion of The Garcia Show will be brought to you by the letter "I" for icky. The lab has recovered over a hundred different trace samples as multiple guests create a cesspool of DNA. Also, there is no way to determine the exact time of "secretion" or to eliminate anyone actually working at the hotel.
- Derek Morgan: [Reid is fretting about Adam's situation] Kid. You're gonna have to accept the fact that sometimes we can't save everyone.
- Amanda: Tell me, Dr. Reid, how long will you keep visiting me in here?
- Dr. Spencer Reid: Until I find Adam.
- Amanda: Why do you care?
- Dr. Spencer Reid: He deserves a life. It's his.
- Amanda: So you're trying to... wear me down and release him?
- Dr. Spencer Reid: No. I'm just waiting for you to do the right thing.
- Amanda: Well, I'm afraid you'll be waiting for a very long time.
- Dr. Ticona Roberts: How are you feeling today?
- Amanda: You let me smoke. What more can I ask for?
- Dr. Ticona Roberts: Most patients have a hard time coping with new surroundings.
- Amanda: They probably believe they'll be released. I'm not so naive.
- Dr. Ticona Roberts: You don't believe you'll be getting out?
- Amanda: Would you let me out?
- Dr. Ticona Roberts: I'd like to talk about Adam. He's still missing.
- Amanda: So I've heard.
- Dr. Ticona Roberts: Will you help us find him?
- Amanda: No.
- Dr. Ticona Roberts: Why not? What more do you need to hide?
- Amanda: I'm not hiding anything. And I think the better question would be what are you looking for... Dr. Reid?
- Dr. Spencer Reid: [approaching from the shadows] I think you know what I'm looking for.
- Amanda: I want to hear you say it.
- Dr. Spencer Reid: I am looking for Adam.
- Amanda: Just because you caught me doesn't mean you'll find him. You're not that smart.
- Dr. Spencer Reid: This isn't about being smart. This is about doing the right thing.
- Amanda: I did the right thing.
- Julie Riley: Listen, we had another early check out, so could you turn it over before you clock out?
- Adam Jackson: What? I am a cleaning lady now?
- Julie Riley: I'm your boss and you'll be whatever I want you to be
