Watch when we are out on a case
"Aydin, Zora, we just wanted to let you know how much we love you. If you're watching this we're most likely on a case away from home but we are still with you. We are helping get the bad guys off the street and create a better future for you."
"We love you guys to the moon and back. That would be what? 238,900 mi? Oh well, we love you lots. Trust me, we don't like being away from you guys. Bye, keep each other safe."

  "Those were your grandparents." Aydin told his children.

  "They loved us that's for sure." Zora added. "When we got older we used to think these tapes were silly but I'm glad they made them, as dorky as it sounded."

  Zora took her kids back to her place and Aydin settled his down. They needed to get up for work at 6am.

  To work at the BAU.
