- Jason Gideon: How long can you hold that lawyer off?
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: Are you kidding? I was a prosecutor. I can hold him off for days.
- Jason Gideon: [voice over, reading the first line of his letter which we find out is to Spencer] I knew it would be you who would come.
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: How goes it in here?
- Emily Prentiss: Means of subduing the victim, potential weapon, source of displaced rage, stressor, evidence of a self-destructive spiral and trophies of his kills. Everything that points to the profile, yet nothing we can hold him on!
- Erin Strauss: Did you actually allow a disturbed college student to meet with a man you believed to be a serial killer?
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: We didn't know who but we knew the meeting would take place.
- Erin Strauss: We?
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: I, ma'am. It was my decision.
- Erin Strauss: And now, that student is dead.
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: She committed suicide, yes... after killing the Unsub.
- Erin Strauss: How could you let this happen?
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: It was not the outcome we had hoped for.
- Erin Strauss: It wasn't the outcome you had hoped for? That's your answer to me?
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: Yes, ma'am.
- Erin Strauss: Give me a badge.
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: Ma'am?
- Erin Strauss: You're suspended for two weeks without pay, pending investigations of your conduct. And Agent Hotchner, if it's solely up to me, you will never get these credentials back.
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: Always a pleasure.
- Jason Gideon: This last kill had a different signature!
- Derek Morgan: I know! I also know that Richard Jewel fit the profile of the Olympic Bomber to the "t" and he was innocent, but the accusations tore apart his life!
- Jennifer Jareau: I can't believe he is walking out of here!
- Derek Morgan: It's the right thing to do
- Jennifer Jareau: Remind me of that the next time I have to tell someone their friend or daughter is murdered!
