- Quotes
Emily Prentiss: So Hotch is even more intense now that Gideon's gone.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Yeah, I've noticed.
Emily Prentiss: Do you think that's gonna change?
Dr. Spencer Reid: I certainly think we'll find out.
Emily Prentiss: What about you? You okay?
Dr. Spencer Reid: Oh, I'm- I'm great.
Emily Prentiss: Do you want to talk about it?
Dr. Spencer Reid: What's there to talk about, really?
Emily Prentiss: Gideon.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Oh, no. He, uh- he left a letter explaining everything. Just like my dad did when he abandoned me and my mom.
Emily Prentiss: He addressed it to you.
Dr. Spencer Reid: Yeah, yeah. You know, Gideon stood toe to toe with some of the... the sickest people on this planet. I think that took a lot of courage, right?
Emily Prentiss: Yeah.
Dr. Spencer Reid: So, why'd he do this? It's addressed to me, but I'm- I'm not- I'm not the only one that he abandoned.
Emily Prentiss: But why is it addressed to you? I think you need to read that letter again.
Dr. Spencer Reid: I have an eidetic memory, Emily.
Emily Prentiss: Ah, yeah, I know, and an IQ of 187, but what do you remember about your father?
Dr. Spencer Reid: What do you mean?
Emily Prentiss: Well, he gave you ten years before he left, and yet you've erased all those memories. And it's too painful, I get it. But then Gideon leaves. I think you need to read that letter again, and ask yourself why, of all the people he walked away from, did he only explain himself to one person: you.
CBS writers were never any good at creating characters that we could relate to.
I really don't believe we are going to spend an hour to critique a 45 minute show. But here we are.
If that shaft measures roughly 8 feet by 8 feet by 20 feet? It will take almost 1300 bags of dirt to fill it. And what's the point when someone below just has to lift their feet a few times a minute to stay above the level of the dirt? Wouldn't it be better to throw unopened bags instead?
You box wine reviewers should maybe try a different slew rate?
