Emily: "Ow! Ohh." she says spilling some of her coffee as Watson comes over to her, chuckling a little
Watson: "Good morning, Emily. Have a good weekend?"
Emily: "Yeah. No. Yes. Ha ha."
Watson: "You sound like Morgan."
Emily: "No, it wasn't -Ugh. I don't want to get into it."
Watson: "No problem."
Emily: "It-It just feels weird for me To talk about my personal life here, you know?  I don't really know you guys all that well yet."
Watson: "I totally get that." she says shrugging her shoulders heading to her desk as Emily follows after her
Emily: "I think I totally screwed up this date." she blurts out
Watson: "Ok. What happened?"
Emily: "You have to understand, I'm a nerd. Like, seriously" she says making Watson chuckle a bit "And I can fool people for days, weeks even. But sooner or later, I blow my cover And I say something so geeky. And then he doesn't respond, And I lose all confidence."
Watson: "What did you say?"
Emily: "Kilgore Trout."
Watson: "Guy has a problem with Kurt Vonnegut?"
Emily: "You know Kilgore Trout?"
Watson: "I read Slaughterhouse-Five when I was 12 for a writing assignment and it blew my mind. So I just kept going and I read 'em all."
Emily: "Yeah, yeah. Me, too. What's your favorite?"
Watson: "Oh, Mother Night."
Emily: "The one about the American spy."
Watson: "Who pretends to be a Nazi."
Emily: "You are who you pretend to be."
Watson: "So be careful who you pretend to be." she says as they chuckle a little
Emily: "Oh, my god. I can't believe you're a Vonnegut fan. You just made my day. Especially with knowing how hot your boyfriend is."
Watson: "Anytime." she says as they clink cups together
Hotch: "Conference room in 5 minutes, please?"
Watson: "Got it." she says sighing out

JJ: "Sandra Davis, 16 years old. This is her singing at her high school talent show a month ago. This is her on-again, off-again boyfriend Ken Newcombe. Their bodies were found in a park near the male victim's car in Groton, an affluent, mostly white suburb of New York City in Westchester County. It's the third of 3 killings believed to be a series of hate crimes."
Emily: "Hate crimes?"
Hotch: "The first 2 victims were Keisha Andrews, 15, and Vickie Williams, 17. They disappeared from their homes in Central Westchester one night. Their bodies were found in a wooded area In a southern part of the county near the city."
Gideon: "Strangled, beaten, stabed."
JJ: "And this was painted on their faces."
Morgan: "What about this couple? How are they apart of it?"
JJ: "Another swastika. This one on the boyfriend's car."
Watson: "It's a different victimology."
Morgan: "Maybe just an escalation."
Gideon: "Or a different killer."
Hotch: "And it doesn't end there. Yesterday an African-American community leader, a Reverend Williams, decided to take this on as a political issue. Racial hate in the suburbs."
Williams: "What we are seeing is pure apathy. Black kids are getting killed and the police are doing nothing to stop it. When will these racists be confronted?"
JJ: "Apparently, in response to Reverend Williams' muckraking, a black kid was beaten on the streets of Groton this afternoon. Connecticut Neo-Nazi group called the White Stallions claimed responsibility."
Emily: "There are Neo-Nazi groups in Connecticut?"
JJ: "The mayor of Groton called me this morning, frantic. He's desperate to solve these crimes before it escalates even more."
Gideon: "What are the racial demographics of Groton?"
JJ: "Population 42,000. 8% black."
Gideon: "I'd say the mayor has reason to be worried. If it doesn't stop soon, it could flare up into a full-scare race riot."
