Quotes 

• David Rossi : [about a serial arsonist]  Whoever set these went from no victims to thirty-one in less than two weeks. That's a hell of an escalation.

  Emily Prentiss : Why didn't they call us in sooner?

  Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau : The local police and fire department knew they were dealing with an arsonist, but they had no idea he'd become a killer.

  Dr. Spencer Reid : Most arsonists don't. They just like setting fires; any deaths that occur are almost always accidental.

  Derek Morgan : Thirty-one victims is not an accident.

  Aaron Hotchner : Police chief knows he made a mistake. And he learned the hard way that even though not all arsonists are killers, they do have one thing in common: once they start, they can't stop.

• Dr. Spencer Reid : Based on the limited population of Royal, the unsub is most likely a local male, between the ages of 17 and 30

  Penelope Garcia : What, arson is a sexist industry?

  Dr. Spencer Reid : Ah, for the most part, yeah. Only 12% of arsonists are female

  Emily Prentiss : Apparently women just aren't inclined to burn things
