Derek Morgan : What is this?
Aaron Hotchner : It's a tactical arrest plan. I'd like you to write it up for this case.
Derek Morgan : You want me to write up how we apprehend these unsubs without risking the lives of the children.
Aaron Hotchner : Yes.
Derek Morgan : [scoffs] Hotch, I've led dozens of tactical assaults. You've never made me write up one of these before.
Aaron Hotchner : That's because I always do it for you after each case.
Derek Morgan : [scoffs again] You know what? I'm sorry Strauss is coming down on you.
Aaron Hotchner : This is not about Strauss.
Derek Morgan : Really? I disagree. Look, I understand that you're under the gun. But I gotta say it. I'm really not all that surprised. I've watched you walk away from a bunch of cops gunning down unsubs in D.C., you walked in unprotected to a hostage situation in Louisville. Of course the Bureau's worried about you. Man, *I'm* worried about you. But just because you're the one who's under the magnifying glass, that doesn't mean I can't do my job.
Aaron Hotchner : Morgan, there's a big part of your job that I do for you, because I don't need you worried about paperwork and politics. I need you in the field and focused in catching the next unsub. But I can't do that anymore. I don't have to justify my orders to you, and you do have to follow them.
Derek Morgan : I've always followed your orders, when they made sense.

Derek Morgan : JJ, I need you to call these fertility specialists and get them over here for interviews
Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau : [Looks at the paper she got from Derek] Wow!
Derek Morgan : Yeah, I know. Hotch wants to focus on the prenatal drugs the unsub has given the victims. He thinks we can build a new suspect poolvand he wants it done yesterday
Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau : There's two pages of names here. Shouldn't we narrow it down?
Derek Morgan : JJ, just do it! Okay?
[JJ frowns]
Derek Morgan : I'm sorry
Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau : Is everything okay?
Derek Morgan : Hotch has been on me ever since we got here. And for the life of me, I can't figure out why

Penelope Garcia : Okay, know this: most adoption people are like the nicest, most dedicated people in the world. There are however real skeezy ones
Dr. Spencer Reid : How skeezy?
Penelope Garcia : Super skeezy. I've got a spreadsheet of one of them, expecting compensation for the baby I'm having
Derek Morgan : Something you want to tell me, Garcia?
Penelope Garcia : Uhm, that's the sad part, my prince. The genetically perfect offspring of Penelope Garcia and Derek Morgan wouldn't fetch top dollar
Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau : Who does?
Penelope Garcia : White babies are in higher demand than minorities. Boys are more popular than girls, at least this year anyway. And then there is the Swedish supermodel rule
Emily Prentiss : The what?
Penelope Garcia : If I were to deliver a blond haired, blue eye, bundle of joy I would set for life. I would!
