The Bunker (2017)

Aisha Tyler: Dr. Tara Lewis

Quotes 

• Matt Simmons : I gotta say, Coleman's bunker was pretty impressive.

  Emily Prentiss : Yeah, but not where I want to spend my last day on Earth.

  Matt Simmons : Yeah? Where would you?

  Emily Prentiss : Never thought about it.

  Penelope Garcia : I... I don't want to think about it.

  Dr. Tara Lewis : I would definitely be on a beach.

  Luke Alvez : I think I'd prefer the mountains.

  Matt Simmons : I'd be with my family.

  Jennifer Jareau : Same. Spence?

  Dr. Spencer Reid : Paris with my mom. She liked Paris.

  Dr. Tara Lewis : You know, something tells me Dave has this all planned out.

  David Rossi : Don't you know it. When the end comes, you'll find me at home enjoying a meal of carbonara a la Rossi, and if there's still time, I will adjourn to my patio to partake in a double Jack and a vintage Don Carlos.

  Luke Alvez : That sounds great.

  Emily Prentiss : You mind if we join you?

• Jennifer Jareau : The unsub could hold a grudge against accomplished women, especially if he feels inferior.

  Dr. Spencer Reid : You know, the unemployment rate in Virginia is only 3.7%. But if he's out of work, he might resent them for being better educated or making more money.

  Dr. Tara Lewis : And you also need to throw rejection into the mix. I mean, this guy could be a jilted lover or feel frustrated by the type of woman he thinks he can't get.

  Emily Prentiss : Garcia, any luck finding a connection between these women?

  Penelope Garcia : Nothing on social media.

  David Rossi : Were any of the dating or in a relationship?

  Penelope Garcia : Not that I can see. They haven't posted, you know, any typical romantic pics with a boyfriend or girlfriend.

• David Rossi : Five years ago, the unsub takes two pregnant teens. It's obvious why he then takes an obstetrician.

  Matt Simmons : If he's taken other teen girls through the years and keeping them alive, they'd all be mothers with young children now.

  Dr. Tara Lewis : Yeah, mothers and children with needs. Medical, dental, educational, and nutritional.

  Luke Alvez : Yeah, and who would be better caretakers than a doctor, a dentist, a teacher, and a chef?

  David Rossi : With such a large group, he'd need to control them to prevent escapes or rebellions.

  Dr. Tara Lewis : And some could be staying willingly. Others because they're afraid or feel they have no choice.

  Luke Alvez : You know, those are all reasons given by ex-cult members when asked why they didn't leave sooner.

  Matt Simmons : This has the aspects of a cult, but members typically join by their own volition, not abducted.

  David Rossi : There's nothing typical about this case.

• Dr. Spencer Reid : We said the timing of the unsub's abductions may be important to him.

  Captain Chuck Skinner : Why is that?

  Dr. Spencer Reid : Victim number one: Dr. Roberta Childs. She signed out of the hospital at 11:50 p.m. Now, victim number two, Diane Pearl, her home alarm system was tripped at 11:52 p.m., Victim three, Elise Waterston, she was a no-show for an 11:55 pickup from her dental office. Cell phone records show that Allie Leighton, the fourth victim, ended her phone call at 11:57 p.m., and lastly, Paige Burrell, the digital clock where she was abducted read 11:57:30.

  Dr. Tara Lewis : Okay, so based on your timeline, our unsub's counting up to 12:00.

  Dr. Spencer Reid : No, he's counting down.

  Captain Chuck Skinner : Counting down to what?

  Dr. Spencer Reid : I think the unsub's abducting women based on the doomsday clock.

  Captain Chuck Skinner : And what's that?

  David Rossi : The symbolic clock that warns the world how close we are to total destruction.

  Matt Simmons : Midnight on the clock represents a hypothetical global catatrophe, like a... a nuclear war. Uh, the number of minutes to midnight stand for how soon that could happen.

• Jennifer Jareau : Since 1947 when a group of atomic scientists created the clock, the minute hand's been reset many times.

  Dr. Spencer Reid : For the last five years, it's been consistently ticking down. It was last set at two and a half minutes to midnight.

  Emily Prentiss : And the closest it ever was was two minutes in 1953 when the U.S. and Russia tested the first H-bomb.

  Jennifer Jareau : We could be looking at a doomsday cult.

  Captain Chuck Skinner : So he's like one of these survivalists who lives in the woods and wears tinfoil hats.

  Luke Alvez : Actually, the idea of preparing for the end is moving from the fringes of society into mainstream culture.

  Matt Simmons : Yeah, they call themselves preppers. They're trying to retain a certain standard of living for themselves and others while riding out the Apocalpyse, be it nuclear or civil unrest.

  David Rossi : The wealthy are jumping on board. They're hoarding cryptocurrency and buying custom survival shelters.

  Matt Simmons : And the super rich are taking it to another level. They're buying private islands, land in New Zealand, their private jets are always gassed up ready to whisk them away at a moment's notice.

  Emily Prentiss : So, the victims are part of the unsub's prep to repopulate a new civilization in a post-apocalyptic world.

  Dr. Tara Lewis : And the clock starting to tick steadily down five years ago was the trigger.

  Matt Simmons : And with it being so close to midnight and us breathing down his neck, he may decide that it's time to cut all ties with the outside world.

  Emily Prentiss : We need to find him before that happens.

• Dr. Tara Lewis : It looks like the next victim after Dr. Childs was abducted during a home invasion

  Penelope Garcia : Yes, Diane Pearl, 26, a school teacher

  Matt Simmons : [reading]  2013, a side door was jammed, setting off an home alarm at 11.52 PM. Nothing was taken

  David Rossi : Nothing, but Diane...
