- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: [voiceover] Mother Teresa said, I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love.
- Emily Prentiss: [offering Rawson a bottle] Thank you.
- Mick Rawson: You guys want to watch out for this one. She's gonna have a hard time getting over me.
- Emily Prentiss: Like kicking a virus.
- Mick Rawson: You know, I could have just missed.
- Emily Prentiss: With your ego? Not a chance.
- David Rossi: I actually think San Quentin was nicer.
- Jonathan Simms: Yeah, trust me, it's not.
- Dr. Spencer Reid: What do you mean?
- Ben McBride: Jane. I need you to listen to me, 'cause it might be the last time I ever get to talk to you. I haven't been a good enough father. You're fourteen. You have no idea how terrifying that is. So I've tried to control what you do and who you see, because I wanted to keep you safe, and I wanted you to go off to school and get a good job and maybe someday... fall in love, and ask me to walk you down the aisle. I'm still your dad, and it's my job to look out for you. But I haven't been a good listener. I know you can hear me. And I'm not asking you to say anything. I just want you to know that I understand that I... I can't control everything. But I need the last words you hear me say... to be that I love you.
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: You never were one for offices.
- Sam Cooper: A medical condition. I'm allergic to bureaucracy.
- Emily Prentiss: So, how does a Brit...
- Mick Rawson: A handsome Brit.
- Emily Prentiss: How does a Brit end up in the FBI?
- Mick Rawson: It's pretty simple. Cooper and I bumped into each other a few times. Ten months ago, they told him he could handpick a new team. He called, I came. Passport didn't matter.
- Emily Prentiss: Huh. So, is it true that no one in the British Special Forces is allowed to admit they're in it?
- Mick Rawson: I don't know. I'd have to ask around about that one.
- Emily Prentiss: [amused laugh] You know, there's a lot of rumors about your boss.
- Mick Rawson: Yeah?
- Emily Prentiss: One I heard was when he left the BAU, he was doing psychological ops overseas.
- Mick Rawson: Well, I've never been big on rumors.
- Emily Prentiss: So I don't suppose you're gonna tell me just where you two "bumped into each other"?
- Mick Rawson: I'll tell you I trust the man with my life. I'll tell you I'd die for the man.
- Penelope Garcia: [Picks up the phone] Talk to me
- Sam Cooper: Penelope Garcia? Sam Cooper
- Penelope Garcia: Sam Cooper? As I live and breathe, and here I thought you were a story someone invented!
- Jonathan Simms: [voiceover] To open the blind eye, take the prisoner out of the prison & them that sit in darkness out of the prison house.
- Penelope Garcia: [replying to Cooper] Roger that. I'm gonna hack like the wind. Prepare to be wowed, sir.
- Sam Cooper: [Answering his phone] Oh? So, you're calling me directly now, huh?
- Erin Strauss: Don't be insolent! I still plan on reading you and agent Hotchner the riot act when you get back
- Sam Cooper: Well... It's something to look forward to
- Erin Strauss: You did good work. Now don't be an idiot! Get on that jet with his team and get back home. I have a pile of cases for you
- Sam Cooper: Yes, ma'am
- [hangs up]
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: So, what exactly did she say?
- Sam Cooper: She said, that she's gonna buy us some steak dinner when we get back
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: Right
- Sam Cooper: Thanks for putting yourself on the line for me
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: Anytime. Thanks for being right
- Gina LaSalle: [handing Cooper a picture of Jane] I think you should have this.
- Sam Cooper: Why? What, you're profiling me now?
- Gina LaSalle: Her mom gave it to me. I think it's time you have a reminder that trusting your gut has a happy ending.
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: ...while your team tests the theory about the fathers and daughters.
- Sam Cooper: And if I'm right, both halves of the case help solve the other half.
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: And you already asked the director, and she said no.
- Sam Cooper: She is not strong at thinking outside the box.
- David Rossi: I've known Sam Cooper for twenty years, and I've never seen him defy an order. If he feels this strong about a hunch, we need to help him however we can.
- Derek Morgan: So, he gets abducted off the street, quietly enough, that there's no witnesses, but then he fights for his life, only let the unsub shoot him execution style?
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: In other words: What the hell is he doing with them?
- Mick Rawson: So, the tenderloin is full of junkies, who would be easy to control but the first victim had no drugs in his system. And this geezer, he looks pretty healthy too, well, except for the whole dead thing
- David Rossi: [Visiting San Quentin prison] This is one for the books, huh?
- Jonathan Simms: Yeah. Spend much time here?
- David Rossi: Maybe half a dozen interviews. You?
- Jonathan Simms: 6 years, 3 months, 4 days
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: Cooper, listen. Your theory's right. We know he's killing homeless men as well as fathers and daughters. But let us work it. If you go back to D.C. now, the director won't know that you ignored her order.
- Sam Cooper: Look, I know you're sticking your neck out on this thing for me. I... I understand. I don't... I'm not trying to...
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: This isn't about me. I want to protect you.
- [Cooper pulls a photograph out of his wallet and hands it to Hotch]
- Sam Cooper: You remember him?
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: Holby Holme. Of course.
- Sam Cooper: You remember we got that confession for those five child murders, but all we all had that gut feeling.
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: We knew he wasn't good for all of them. The preference was too varied.
- Sam Cooper: Local cops shut the investigation down. The FBI brass, they told us to... to get our asses back home.
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: I remember.
- Sam Cooper: Where were you when you heard they caught that second killer dumping this boy's body?
- Aaron 'Hotch' Hotchner: I was in Denver working on a new case. You?
- Sam Cooper: I wasn't on anything yet. I could have still been there. I won't ignore my gut again. I don't care what it costs me.
- Detective Ekler: [Arriving at the crime scene] Well?
- Detective Ganz: [Split second after seeing the victim] We need to call the FBI! It started again
