Hotch: "Fate is not satisfied with inflicting one calamity." Roman author Publilius Syrus.

JJ: "Well-shouldn't we wait for the official request? We haven't been invited-" the others hear as JJ and Hotch come out of his office 

Hotch: "We will be."

JJ: "Well, it looks like we're going to Boston." she sighs as she stops next to the others as they watch Hotch continue to walk

On The Plane

Hotch: "The Reaper is driven by a need to dominate, control, and manipulate."

Emily: "So then why would he offer a deal that would stop him from doing that?"

Hotch: "Well, killing gave him power, but after so many, the payoff began to diminish. So he decided to switch tactics. Offering the deal gave him the ultimate power, better even than killing. He manipulated the police into voluntarily surrendering."

Reid: "He even got it in writing."

JJ: "He won. Why start killing again?"

Morgan: "Well, because the only person who knew he'd won, the person he made the deal with, just died."

Rossi: "Narcissistic killers need other people to recognize their power. That's why they contact the media."

Emily: "So how did he stop for 10 years?"

Reid: "In Night of the Reaper, the author suggests he had been arrested for an unrelated crime or died. Perhaps he's trying to correct that misconception."

Watson: "What has he been doing all this time?"

Hotch: "Planning what he would do if he started killing again."

Morgan: "So from '95 to '98, he shoots, stabs, and bludgeons 21 victims. Men, women, all ages, all types. No specific victimology or M.O." he says while looking through a file

Watson: "How did you build a profile from there?"

Hotch: "We didn't. Shaunessy sent us home before we had a chance. BTK, the Zodiac, and the Reaper all have similarities. They're all highly intelligent, disciplined, sadistic killers who name themselves in the press."

Reid: "Highly intelligent may be a bit of an understatement. The Reaper and the Zodiac killer have never been arrested. The BTK killer was only caught after 25 years because he went to the press to counter a book that said he'd died, moved away, or been locked up, just like this one."

JJ: "Speaking of the media, when this gets out, it's going to be a frenzy. If they get wind of this, they're going to be all over the Boston police."

Hotch: "The longer we can float the copycat story, the better chance we'll have of catching him. Rossi, Watson, Prentiss, and Morgan go to the field office, set up shop, go through everything there. JJ and Reid, we'll go to the crime scene."

Hotch: "George Foyet, 28, was the ninth victim and the only one to survive the reaper." he says when they return from the crime scene

Rossi: "Not for lack of trying." he says as they look at crime photos from the Foyet scene 

Hotch: "Amanda Bertrand, 19, his date for the evening, was not as lucky. He likes to attack them inside or near their cars, at night, on poorly lit, less populated roads."

Detective: "Foyet said he approached them pretending to be a lost tourist. In the hospital, we put Foyet with a sketch artist."

Hotch: "The Reaper always uses some sort of ruse to get close to and spend time with his victims."
