Dr. Spencer Reid : What chapter are you on?
Dr. Maeve Donovan : The part where she's at the coal mines.
Dr. Spencer Reid : Say what you will about his writing, Maeve, it's fascinating the way he weaves characters into situations, right?
Dr. Maeve Donovan : Yeah, I mean, I'm not sure what I think of it. It's slightly obtuse.
Dr. Spencer Reid : Yeah, he tends to be that way. I probably should have warned you. He's not really anything like Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
Dr. Maeve Donovan : Still my favorite. Guess what.

Dr. Spencer Reid : Really? Since when?
Dr. Maeve Donovan : Two weeks ago.
Dr. Spencer Reid : Why didn't you tell me?
Dr. Maeve Donovan : I wanted to make sure.
Dr. Spencer Reid : What about the phone calls?
Dr. Maeve Donovan : No, I haven't gotten any. No more heavy breathing on the machine, no more hang-ups.
Dr. Spencer Reid : You know, oftentimes when a stalker's advances are completely ignored, their erotomanic fantasies will be diverted to a more receptive target.
Dr. Maeve Donovan : I went to the store yesterday. I even sat in a café and had coffee without my disguise on. Something deep inside my gut tells me he's gone. I think it's over, Spencer.
Dr. Spencer Reid : Well, our instincts exist for a reason. They're definitely a response to specific...
Dr. Maeve Donovan : I want to meet you.
Dr. Spencer Reid : ...environmental stimuli.
[pause]
Dr. Maeve Donovan : Do you hear me, Spence?
Dr. Spencer Reid : Yeah, I-I... No, I heard you.
Dr. Maeve Donovan : Well, what do you think? I think it's time.
