Quotes 

• Dr. Spencer Reid : [Standing in front of a screen which displays the letter]  I thought that Antiona had written the initials CH in my hand. What she actually wrote was C++, which is a programming language that uses hexadecimals codes, or base-16. Now, that means that the unsub is most likely a programmer or at least someone who works with computers. Anyway, using an ASCII chart, you can translate between hexadecimal code and characters equivalents, but the interesting thing is the entire letter isn't the message. The actual message is hidden in a single sentence that is indicated by the number underlined in the date Reid: Rossi: Reid:

  Jennifer Jareau : So, the forth sentence

  Dr. Spencer Reid : Exactly. "When I think that proof alone will never beat faulty logic, I bleed twice". Now if you count the letters in each word, you get hexadecimal code

  [hex characters on screen are: 41 54 4F 4E 45 46 4C 4D 4E] 

  Dr. Spencer Reid : which can be translated into characters

  David Rossi : Kid, just tell us what it says

  Dr. Spencer Reid : [Letters read: ATONE FL MN]  Atone full moon

• Jennifer Jareau : [Presses the intercom]  Penelope?

  Penelope Garcia : [Comes walking it]  At your service

  Jennifer Jareau : Oh? Hey!

• Dr. Tara Lewis : Don't forget boredom. I mean, she had a really exciting couple of days there. Not to brag, but we are a more scintillating company than most inmates and guards

  Dr. Spencer Reid : I overheard the arrangement you made with Antonia in German. You promised to tell her truth after the case was over if she helped us out. You gonna follow through?

  Dr. Tara Lewis : Hell no. Look, of all the serial killer types, the ones I find most dangerous are the hyper-intelligent ones that get off more on the mind games than the killing. They're like vampires, ready to suck your soul dry and file your information away for a rainy day

  Jennifer Jareau : Yeah, that's Antonia

  Dr. Tara Lewis : Well, we got what we from her. I say we move on
