Quotes 

• [Dr Reid has managed to decode steganographic messages hidden in letters written by a convict in prison] 

  Dr. Spencer Reid : Normally, you'd use a computer to examine all the combinations, but in this case it was faster just to write it all out longhand until I found the right code.

  Emily Prentiss : [Poking Reid's cheek]  He's so lifelike!

• Emily Prentiss : [pokes Reid's face]  He's so life-like...

• Emily Prentiss : Hey, you ever get groupies at your book signing?

  David Rossi : Sometimes, if Barry Manilow isn't in town

• Penelope Garcia : Did you know that John Wayne Gacy painted clowns? A murdering pedophile paints clowns and people hang them on their walls. It's creepy on so many levels. I mean, clowns...

  Derek Morgan : Garcia? I didn't know you had that hang up

  Emily Prentiss : Coulrophobia, abnormal fear of clowns

  Penelope Garcia : Oh, no, there's nothing abnormal about it. When I was 12, a hobo clown groped my breasts at a birthday party and made this old timey honking noise when he did it! Apparently making it funny, makes it okay

• Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau : This is Delilah Grennan. She was bludgeoned and raped during the night at her home in Lower Canaan, Ohio.

  Emily Prentiss : Lower where?

  Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau : Small town forty miles outside of Cincinnati.

  Dr. Spencer Reid : Staging the body face up with the arms across the chest like that.

  Derek Morgan : Ritual. Nice hair, by the way.

  [Morgan flips a lock of Reid's hair into his face] 

  Dr. Spencer Reid : [brushing his hair back]  Thanks.

  Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau : Uh, there's more. Small puncture wounds on her stomach. Note the lack of blood.

  Emily Prentiss : They were inflicted postmortem. Were there any other victims?

  Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau : Kind of. Victimology and signature match a serial killer from the same town ten years ago. Six victims spanning over ten months. He called himself...

  Aaron Hotchner : The Angel Maker. I remember the case.

  Dr. Spencer Reid : They caught that guy.

  David Rossi : And executed him.

  Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau : That's right. He was put to death by lethal injection a year ago yesterday.

  Emily Prentiss : Yesterday.

  Derek Morgan : So we're looking for a copycat.

  David Rossi : Honoring the anniversary of his hero's death.

  Dr. Spencer Reid : It says here they found semen at the crime scene. Perhaps locals will get a DNA match when they run it through VICAP?

  Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau : Well, that's where it gets weird. They ran it already and they got a match, too.

  Emily Prentiss : Well, if they already have a name, why'd they call us?

  David Rossi : [reading the report]  They've got to be kidding. The match they got back on the DNA is to a Cortland Bryce Ryan. Otherwise known as... the Angel Maker.
