Naomi: "Make a wish!" she cheers, placing a cake down in front of Spencer's desk
Derek: "Come on man! Blow, baby blow!"
Elle: "I thought you were full of hot air, Reid."
Derek: "Come on, Reid." they chuckle as Spencer continues to blow out his candles, brows furrowing in confusion as they light up again
JJ: "They're trick candles, Spence okay? They're gonna come back on every time."
Derek: "Oh, mommy to rescue you!" he coos, shaking the hat on top of Spencer's head
Spencer: "Mommy?"
Naomi: "Ignore him."
Hotch: "Isn't it amazing you knows what he knows he's only 24?" he smiles, standing off to the side with Gideon
Gideon: "Imagine what he'll know by 50."
Derek: "Reid, does this make you legal yet?"
JJ: "Hope you like chocolate." she hums, moving to remove the candles as Naomi grabs hold of the plates, the pair leaning in close to Spencer which makes him awkwardly look between the two
Anderson: "Agent Hotchner?" a man calls out, holding up a phone
Derek: "Ah, look. You blew wax on the cake man."
Gideon: "You having fun?" he hums, looking at Spencer who moves to stand beside him
Spencer: "Yes, definitely. I'm definitely having fun."
Gideon: "Make a wish?"
Spencer: "Can I take this hat off?"
Gideon: "I wouldn't." he shrugs, making Spencer lightly chuckle
Naomi: "Hey, Einstein! First piece for the birthday boy." she calls out, holding a plate out for him
Spencer: "Do you know she's got about 100 nicknames for me." he smiles, chuckling a little before moving back to the others
Naomi: "Happy birthday."
Spencer: "Thank you."
Derek: "Birthday boy. JJ why don't you feed it to him."
Hotch: "Sorry, guys, the party's over." he sighs, gaining the group's attention
➰
Hotch: "We're going to San Diego."
Morgan: "Not for the surfing, huh?"
JJ: "They're calling him the Tommy killer."
Hotch: "6 women raped and murdered in their homes in the last 3 weeks."
Elle: "6 in 3 weeks."
Gideon: "That's a short fuse."
Hotch: "And getting shorter. The first 2 were 8 days apart then the next 4 in 2 weeks."
Reid: "Rapid escalation. Do you think he's regressing to a psychopathic frenzy?"
Hotch: "No, he's too controlled for that" he hums, standing to his feet as the others begin opening the files JJ hands them "See you on the plane."
Watson: "Why the Tommy killer?" she calls out, stopping Hotch from walking out the room
Hotch: "You know the rock opera? This unsub glues the victims' eyes wide open."
Reid: "He wants them to see him."
Gideon: "And feel him."

Gideon: French poet Jacques Rigaut said "Don't forget that I cannot see myself, that my role is limited to being the one who looks in the mirror."
