Gideon: "Pipe bombs." he says as they sit around the table looking at pictures of the explosion
Morgan: "Packed in cardboard boxes."
Hotch: "Package bombs."
Gideon: "Sent through the mail?"
Morgan: "No. The other picture in your hand is of the switch that ATF found. Same mechanism for both bombs, mercury-activated."
Elle: "What does that mean?"
Reid: "There are contacts to a detonator on either end of a bent tube full of mercury."
Morgan : "What it means is all you have to do is to tilt the package to detonate it."
Watson: "So they couldn't have been sent through the mail. The bomber had to deliver them himself."
Morgan: "Exactly."
Hotch: "Strange way to commit an act of terrorism. Why go to all this trouble to kill just a few people?"
Gideon: "Let's recommend not raising the terror alert level for now. No reason to spread panic." he says as JJ comes into the room
JJ: "We got news. This is just a local channel, but the coverage is everywhere now- CNN, FOX, MSNBC, Al-Jazeera,you name it." she says turning on the TV
Hotch: "So much for not spreading panic."
Reporter: "According to doctors, he's badly injured, but in stable condition in the I.C.U. Now, neighbors say that they heard a blast at about 10:30 this morning, and police arrived."
Gideon: "If DHS doesn't raise the terror alert now, they'll look weak."
Hotch: "Make sure Homeland Security knows that this is everywhere." he says as they see an explosion on the TV as everyone's eyes widen
Reporter: "I just felt that! Are you all right? Is everyone all right?"
Hotch: "Looks like were going to Palm Beach. Let's meet at the airstrip in 20."
Reporter: "This is live, I repeat this is live."
Gideon: "Samuel Johnson wrote, "almost all absurdity of conduct arises from the imitation of those whom we cannot resemble."
➰ On the plane
Hotch: "Bombings occurred within 3 miles of each other. First victim was a 74-year old widow Barbara Keller. 2 hours after that. Clurman got hit in his driveway, and 45 minutes later well, we all saw that."
Watson: "Jill Swenson, housewife who lived across the street from Clurman." she says reading from the file
Hotch: "Of the 3, only Clurman survived."
Reid: "Was there any connection between the victims?"
Hotch: "One. Clurman was a partner in a $10-million condo development deal in which Keller was an investor, and a few weeks ago, the whole deal went bust."
