David Rossi : Forget the unsub. What do you want?
Jason Gideon : I want you to ask yourself that fundamental question that's been nagging at you this whole time.
David Rossi : I already answered it.
Jason Gideon : I'm the unsub. Why didn't I kill you when I had the chance?
David Rossi : [flashing back to his struggle with Lynch] You kill me, you killed a federal agent, and that brings down...
Jason Gideon : [imitating a buzzer] EHH! That's the wrong answer. You'd never been in that situation before. He had you on the ground, knife to your face. You resigned yourself to the thought of dying.

Jason Gideon : You know why you lasted longer in this job than I ever did? You never really let the unsub get inside your head.
David Rossi : Is that your way of saying you were better than me, Jason?
Jason Gideon : You tell me. I'm inside your head.
[pointing to a composite sketch of Lynch]
Jason Gideon : I'm the unsub. What do I want?
David Rossi : You know, I never liked your games.
Jason Gideon : I know. Remember? You and me? My yin to your yang? We were like Martin and Lewis.

Jason Gideon : Everett Lynch didn't kill you because he looked in your eyes and saw something, of his father.
David Rossi : Sons kill their fathers, Jason.
Jason Gideon : Sure, they do, but not typically if they still have issues to work out.
David Rossi : Lynch's dad is dead. His name was Douglas Moore. He was an insurance man. Lynch's mother was trying to grift him and got careless and got pregnant. The guy drowned in a boating accident.
Jason Gideon : Drowned, huh? Kind of like how Lynch would describe Grace drowning.
David Rossi : Oh, look, the Moore story checked out.
[a thought strikes him]
David Rossi : Unless... Roberta lied to me. And if she lied to me, she probably lied to her son, and if he found out, he'd want to find his father, don't you think?
[turning around, he sees Gideon is gone]
