Goofs

When the profiler's convince a young girl to send a text message to her friend who is with the unsub, the girl reads as she is typing, "Listen to them. They're with the FBI.". The text on her computer screen, however, says "Listen to them. They're FROM the FBI. Here they are." (emphasis added) And the text shown on the receiving PDA says, "Listen to them. They're from the FBI." without the closing phrase... "Here they are."
