Quotes
-
David Rossi : [opening quote] "Who knows where inspiration comes from? Perhaps it arises from desperation, perhaps it comes from flukes of the universe, the kindness of the muses" - Amy Tan
-
David Rossi : See no evil, hear no gossip
Jennifer Jareau : Oh, come on, we see evil all day long
-
Derek Morgan : All right, Rossi, talk to me. What's up?
David Rossi : Only the sun. I like the sun.
Derek Morgan : Cute. That's real cute. Look, when I was the gym, conversation around the free weights is Hotch is interviewing to be Strauss's permanent replacement.
David Rossi : I know nothing.
Derek Morgan : Come on, man, you sure about that? Why do I get the feeling you're being a profiler?
David Rossi : If you have any questions about Hotch, maybe you should ask Hotch.
Derek Morgan : Ok, look, I get it. Doing double duty after the sequester, fine, but taking on a desk job full-time? You know what they say about desk jobs.
David Rossi : That's how you get the ladies?
Derek Morgan : No. Sitting is the new smoking. That'll kill Hotch, and you know that.

Aaron Hotchner : Garcia, Heather Clarke is the victim that our unsub's been feeding to the others.
Penelope Garcia : Yikes.
Aaron Hotchner : See if she had any enemies.
Penelope Garcia : [typing] No. I mean, she was her company's top regional manager, she... she looks loved.
David Rossi : Well, the unsub's rage has probably been brewing for a long time.
Alex Blake : And he most likely expressed his disdain for her long before he killed her.
Derek Morgan : Baby girl, check middle and high school records.
Penelope Garcia : [typing again] No, zero. Zero, there's nothing there.
David Rossi : There's gotta be something. See if her parents ever filed a restraining order.
Penelope Garcia : [finding a result] Oh, creepy bingo.
-
David Rossi : So, um, any news on the job front?
Aaron Hotchner : No, but they said that they wanted to talk to me again when we got back. I've thought a lot about it. I don't know what to tell them.
David Rossi : Well, I can think of a million ways to sabotage you.
[Hotch half-smiles]
David Rossi : Just say the word.
-
David Rossi : Whoa, you never went home.
Aaron Hotchner : No, I had these, uh, unit chief performance appraisals to do when we got back.
David Rossi : So, how many all-nighters have you pulled this month?
Aaron Hotchner : I don't know. Between the final reviews and the appraisals, there isn't enough time.
David Rossi : Erin would, uh, always bring her work home with her.
Aaron Hotchner : Yeah, I know. She definitely, uh, underplayed the amount of paperwork.
David Rossi : So, how long do you think they're gonna ask you to do this double duty?
Aaron Hotchner : Well, they asked me if I'd be interested in the job full-time.
David Rossi : That would mean leaving the BAU.
Aaron Hotchner : I bought myself some time by asking them to at least post the position.
David Rossi : Well, we both know the pros and cons.
Aaron Hotchner : Yeah, lots of them. We'll talk about it later.

Penelope Garcia : Two women, Sarah Beck and Jill Elks, were found in a park in Glendale, Arizona within the last three days. Both of them were single in their late twenties, and following their normal low-risk routines when they were abducted.
Alex Blake : Where we they taken from?
Penelope Garcia : Sarah was on her way to her theater group rehearsal, and Jill was abducted form her apartment. The unsub broke in through a window.
Dr. Spencer Reid : Well, clearly he's hunting a specific type.
Derek Morgan : He left the jewelry untouched.
Aaron Hotchner : Yeah, it's not about robbery.
Penelope Garcia : Both women were sexually assaulted and then they were shot in the heart and left in that... prayer position.
Jennifer Jareau : It's odd.
David Rossi : Maybe it's religious. Looks like they're leaning on a cross.
Derek Morgan : Their hands are titled forward.
Dr. Spencer Reid : He could have made them supplicate and their hands clenched in rigor mortis.
Jennifer Jareau : So they're possibly trying to atone for their sins.
Alex Blake : I doubt that. Both women have pretty clean backgrounds.
Dr. Spencer Reid : Since the posing was done postmortem, maybe it's representation of the way in which he made them beg for their lives.
David Rossi : We've definitely seen that before.
Aaron Hotchner : Hmm. He's getting off on the power. Let's head to Arizona. Wheels up in thirty.
