Curled up in one of the seats on the private jet that the team used to fly across the country for cases, Paityn Young pulled out her iPad and inserted her earbuds. It had been a hard case, one she particularly didn't care to remember, and she wanted nothing more than to zone out, her choice of poison for this task, YouTube videos of her new favorite actor, Matthew Gray Gubler.

"What are you watching?" Emily Prentiss leaned over the seat, staring at the iPad in her friend's lap.

Paityn looked up, tugging her earbuds out, "Remember that actor I was telling you about? It's an interview he did recently. He's so funny."

Emily pushed off from the chair, "I can't keep all of your celebrity crushes straight anymore, there are far too many of them and they are constantly changing."

"Oh whatever, I don't change my mind that often." Paityn watched as JJ Jareau and Emily exchanged sarcastic eye rolls. "Hey!!" Her iPad buzzed in her hand and she glanced down.

"Oh my god, you are literally vibrating. What is it?" JJ grabbed the tablet from her friends hand.

"He's coming to D.C." Paityn high pitched squealed.

JJ and Emily both turned to watch as their friend continued, "Oh god, here we go again." Emily reached for her phone. "I'll call Garcia."

"Pen, can you pull up a picture of this guy that she's dragging us to see?" Emily and JJ were tucked away with Penelope Garcia in her batcave, all three women huddled around the computer screen.

"It was Gubler, right?" Penelope started to tap away at the keys.

JJ nodded, "Yeah, it was something along those lines. I think she said his first name was Matthew."

Three collective gasps could be heard, escaping through the small crack in the door and echoing down the empty hallway.

"Ummm...You're both seeing this, right?" Emily glanced from face to face, hoping that she wasn't going completely insane.

Penelope made a few clicks, the image changing but the simple fact remained the same. "He looks exactly like Spencer."

"Do you think she realizes that?" JJ quietly asked, her finger pointing to a particular picture on the screen.

"If she doesn't outright realize it, then she's doing a damn good job at hiding her true feelings for our residence genius. I always knew she had a thing for him." Emily swiveled her chair around, turning to look at the petite blond standing behind her. "Maybe we should bluntly point it out."

"I'm thinking that we just play along for a little bit. Feel this out, see what her reaction is this weekend and, if our assumptions are correct, then we pounce on our small naive kitten." Penelope twirled her pen between her fingers, "Besides, if we don't play our hand correctly, we could very easily end up turning her off the idea of Spencer and well, I want the two of them to be together."

JJ and Emily both nodded, agreeing with their tech geek friend.

"You got the tickets, right?" All three girls turned to stare at Paityn as she popped her head into the room. "I can't miss this showing of his movie. I need to meet this guy Pen."

"No worries cupcake, I got us tickets and I do have to add, you owe us."

"You big time owe us. This is what, the fourth stalking adventure that you've dragged us on." Emily pushed one of the chairs towards the newly added body.

"I don't stalk anybody! I have no idea why you keep referring to them as stalking adventures. I'm just being a fan."

"Sure...." JJ sing-songed. "We've been there, had this argument and you know that we will win, because we do, every time."
