Delilah Grennan: Jeez, Bo, you scared me half to death… Such a cliche… See that, Bo? Guess I'm supposed to make a wish or something, right? Come on, Bo.

----------

Renee Turner: How is the buzzing now?

Aaron Hotchner: It's okay. I think I could actually get used to that part. The problem is dealing with the pain.

Renee Turner: You're experiencing hyperacusis. It's caused by sudden loud noises, like an explosion.

Aaron Hotchner: So what do we do about it, doctor?

Renee Turner: You have a small tear in your right eardrum. We'll treat that with a bonding agent. It'll most likely heal itself in a week or two.

Aaron Hotchner: Most likely?

Renee Turner: The condition can sometimes become permanent.

Aaron Hotchner: But I can go back to work?

Renee Turner: Putting someone in the field with acute sensitivity to sound would be a mistake. Agent Hotchner, if you're not careful, you could lose your hearing entirely.

Aaron Hotchner: I understand.

Renee Turner: Good.

Aaron Hotchner: But you'll... Sign my return to duty? W-what if I said I'd... Take it easy and... Limit my role in the field?

Renee Turner: Stay out of loud places… Your phone is ringing.

Aaron Hotchner: What's up, J.J.?

----------

Jennifer Jareau: This is Delilah Grennan. She was bludgeoned and raped during the night at her home in lower Canaan, Ohio.

Emily Prentiss: Lower where?

Jennifer Jareau: Small town 40 miles outside of Cincinnati.

Spencer Reid: Staging the body face-up with the arms across the chest like that.

Derek Morgan: Ritual. Nice hair, by the way.

Spencer Reid: Thanks.

Jennifer Jareau: Uh, there's more. Small puncture wounds on her stomach. Note the lack of blood.

Emily Prentiss: They were inflicted post-mortem. Were there any other victims?

Jennifer Jareau: Kind of. Victimology and signature match a serial killer from the same town 10 years ago-- 6 victims spanning over 10 months. He called himself--

Aaron Hotchner: The Angel Maker. I remember the case.

Spencer Reid: They caught that guy.

David Rossi: And executed him.

Jennifer Jareau: That's right. He was put to death by lethal injection a year ago yesterday.

Emily Prentiss: Yesterday.

Derek Morgan: So we're looking for a copycat.

David Rossi: Honouring the anniversary of his hero's death.

Spencer Reid: It says here they found semen at the crime scene. Perhaps locals will get a DNA match when they run it through VICAP?

Jennifer Jareau: Well, that's where it gets weird. They ran it already and they got a match, too.

Emily Prentiss: Well, if they already have a name, why'd they call us?

David Rossi: They've got to be kidding. The match they got back on the DNA is to a Cortland Bryce Ryan, otherwise known as... The Angel Maker.

----------

Aaron Hotchner: "We all die. The goal isn't to live forever. The goal is to create something that will." Chuck Palahniuk.

----------

Spencer Reid: The Angel Maker's victims were beaten with the assailant's bare hands. Delilah Grennan was bludgeoned with a heavy instrument, maybe a hammer.

Derek Morgan: Okay, so this unsub's a weaker guy, but at least someone who perceives himself that way.

Emily Prentiss: So he brought along the hammer to make certain his victim wouldn't fight back?

David Rossi: They have parachutes on-board, right?

Spencer Reid: They should.  It's standard on all federal air transport.

David Rossi: Maybe we can give one to the elephant in the room, get him out of here?

Derek Morgan: That'd be the elephant with the dead man's DNA.

Aaron Hotchner: Well, obviously somebody planted the semen on the victim.

Derek Morgan: In the victim.

Spencer Reid: That's one theory.

Jennifer Jareau: There's another?

Spencer Reid: Think about who shares the exact DNA makeup of another person.

Derek Morgan: Reid, you're not seriously floating around the idea of an evil twin, are you?

Spencer Reid: No, I'm not. I'm floating the idea of an eviler twin. Traditionally, the concept is a good twin and an evil twin. But in this case, it's evil twin, eviler twin.

Derek Morgan: Hotch?

Aaron Hotchner: Yeah.

Derek Morgan: You have been cleared to fly, haven't you?

----------

Merrill Dobson: Before Cortland Ryan, this town hadn't seen a homicide in over 30 years. He didn't just kill those 6 women. He killed a way of life. Now this thing's got people thinking he's come back.

Spencer Reid: They don't really think that, do they?

Merrill Dobson: I guess when you've been scared by something, I mean really scared, that fear's in you forever.

Aaron Hotchner: Let's stick to the facts. Were there signs of forced entry?

Merrill Dobson: None that we could find, but whoever killed Delilah Grennan opened up every window in this house before he left.

Spencer Reid: That's a signature from the previous murders.

Merrill Dobson: A detail we never released to the public.

Aaron Hotchner: And it came out at the trial?

Merrill Dobson: No, sir. Prosecution had Ryan nailed 9 ways to Sunday. Didn't need it. So I'm hard-pressed to know how this copycat knew about those windows.

Aaron Hotchner: The man we're looking for is most likely a fan who exhaustively studied the first killings and used them to form his own murder fantasies.

Spencer Reid: He knows this case as well as us; better, maybe, if he had actual contact with Ryan while he was incarcerated.

Aaron Hotchner: We sent one of our agents to Hawkesville prison to look into it.

Merrill Dobson: And the semen?

Aaron Hotchner: Smuggled out of the prison, kept on ice, brought out on the anniversary of the execution.

Spencer Reid: There's an entire cottage industry based on serial killer effects and memorabilia. You can find absolutely anything if you know the right people.

Aaron Hotchner: Question is, is this a one-time commemoration or is it just the beginning?

----------

Emily Prentiss: What about the puncture wounds?

Coroner: My best guess is a small screwdriver, like a phillips head.

David Rossi: Just like the prior murders. This guy's a stickler for the details.

Emily Prentiss: The groupings in the prior victims were always different in number and arrangement.

David Rossi: 3 wounds on this one… 5, 24. He was all over the map.

Coroner: But I also found traces of paper in the wounds.

David Rossi: Paper? Like tissue?

Coroner: Like notebook paper.

Emily Prentiss: Well, that's new.

David Rossi: Unique to the copycat… What is it?

Emily Prentiss: I don't know. It just seems familiar.

----------

Sid Rutledge: Ryan didn't have any next of kin, so after the execution, all of his effects got boxed and stored.

Derek Morgan: This is all his correspondence?

Sid Rutledge: Copies, at least. Helps the warden keep tabs on certain prisoners if he can know what's in their mail.

Derek Morgan: There's a lot of letters.

Sid Rutledge: A lot of fans. Real lady killer.

Derek Morgan: What about male fans?

Sid Rutledge: Some, yeah. Freaks. This one kid would come by. Musician, I think. Black clothes and eyeliner and all that. He sent Ryan his demo tape and some sheet music he wrote in his own blood.

Derek Morgan: Did you ever catch Ryan trying to smuggle anything out, to this kid or anyone else?

Sid Rutledge: Usual problem we have is stuff being smuggled in, not out.

Derek Morgan: His DNA was found at a fresh crime scene in Lower Canaan.

Sid Rutledge: What kind of DNA we talking about?

Derek Morgan: Type of DNA that cats in lockup don't have occasion to use… All right. Well, listen, thank you for all this, but I want to look at all your visitor logs, all right? Excuse me… Yeah, J.J.? Okay, uh... Yeah, I'm headed right back.

Sid Rutledge: Something wrong?

Derek Morgan: A local newspaper just got a letter from someone claiming to be the Angel Maker.

----------

Spencer Reid: "I give you a legacy, a breath of life from the angel maker himself. Those who prayed to forget me will one day see my face and shrink in fear."

Merrill Dobson: That's the last thing people need right now.

Derek Morgan: Reid, how's it compare with the original correspondence?

Spencer Reid: They share some compelling characteristics. I'd obviously like to look at it under magnification with a better light.

Aaron Hotchner: Best guess, Reid?

Spencer Reid: Say it's authentic.

Merrill Dobson: How can this letter be authentic if the guy's been dead for a year?

Aaron Hotchner: Could be an elaborate forgery.

Spencer Reid: Or it could be the genuine article, just written before his death.

Merrill Dobson: Well, mail here isn't that slow.

Spencer Reid: Or released through an intermediary.

Merrill Dobson: You mean the copycat?

Derek Morgan: We're going over the prison visitor logs to check who had multiple visits with Ryan, Try to narrow our suspect pool.

----------

Merrill Dobson: Sela? What are you doing here?

Sela Dobson: Is it true? There's a letter?

Merrill Dobson: How did you know?

Sela Dobson: You didn't really think you could keep that quiet around here.

Merrill Dobson: The letter's not from him, not the way people might be saying.

Sela Dobson: What does that mean?

Aaron Hotchner: It... It means we think he has someone on the outside, a friend.

Sela Dobson: What if you're wrong? What if--

Merrill Dobson: There's no such thing as ghosts, Sela.

Sela Dobson: I'm not talking about a ghost. I am talking about those rumours about the execution. How there were problems, how it didn't work right.

Aaron Hotchner: What are you suggesting?

Sela Dobson: What if he's still out there? Don't do that. You think I'm the only one? Look outside… They want proof that he's dead.

----------

Aaron Hotchner: I have to advise against this.

Merrill Dobson: All due respect, this isn't your town. I have to convince them that Cortland Ryan is dead and buried.

Aaron Hotchner: But you're indulging this killer by perpetuating the ruse he's created.

Emily Prentiss: He's right. It may embolden him, prompt more murders.

Merrill Dobson: Sela lost her only daughter to that bastard. We met when I was working the case, grew close. I thought we'd gotten past all this, but I guess I was kidding myself.

Emily Prentiss: Hotch? Hotch? Hotch, are you all right? Can I do anything?

Aaron Hotchner: Yeah, I'm okay, I'm okay, I'm okay. Okay.

Merrill Dobson: My God.

----------

Dr. Hagen: Cortland Ryan is dead. There's no two ways about it.

Derek Morgan: We're just trying to be thorough, Dr. Hagen. We heard that there may have been irregularities with the execution.

Dr. Hagen: His heart was stopped. His pupils were nonresponsive. Trust me. This is not the first execution I've pronounced at.

David Rossi: But it was the last. Did something happen that day to prompt your resignation from the corrections department?

Dr. Hagen: Everyone dies different. Ryan went hard is all.

Derek Morgan: What does that mean, doctor?

Dr. Hagen: After we cycled the drugs, we realized he was still alive. We weren't prepared for that.

David Rossi: How is that possible?

Dr. Hagen: The catheter dislodged. We reinserted it, started the potassium chloride. He started shaking… Spitting.

David Rossi: He was suffocating.

Dr. Hagen: Catheter failed again. Took him almost an hour to die, almost as if something were keeping him here… He said this was going to happen, you know.

Derek Morgan: That what was gonna happen?

Dr. Hagen: His last words. He said he'd come back.

----------

Cortland Ryan: You may think you've seen the last of me, but death cannot take me from you. I will be born again. Today you make me a legend.

Merrill Dobson: Always had a flair for the dramatic.

David Rossi: Set the stage perfectly: a latter-day Lazarus returning to deliver hell on earth.

Aaron Hotchner: We need to debunk this, or the whole town's gonna panic.

Merrill Dobson: Little late for that.

David Rossi: The grave-robbing we can explain. It has to be a fan.

Merrill Dobson: You think the same person that did the copycat murder took Ryan's body?

Aaron Hotchner: It's possible. He had to have help.

David Rossi: Someone on the inside.

Merrill Dobson: I suppose you're gonna tell me there's a cottage industry for that, too.

----------

Penelope Garcia: Did you know that John Wayne Gacy painted clowns? A murdering pedophile paints clowns, and people hang them on their walls. It's creepy on so many levels. I mean, clowns--

Derek Morgan: Garcia, I didn't know you had that hang-up.

Emily Prentiss: Coulrophobia-- abnormal fear of clowns.

Penelope Garcia: Oh, no, there is nothing abnormal about it. When I was 12, a hobo clown groped my breast at a birthday party and made this old-timey honking noise when he did it. Apparently making it funny makes it okay.

Emily Prentiss: Were you able to find any auctions on angel maker memorabilia?

Penelope Garcia: Oh, my vision. I found a ton. Mr. Maker was quite the self-promoter. He autographed everything: photos, panties, and for the discerning collector, screwdrivers.

Derek Morgan: You got to be kidding me.

Penelope Garcia: Yeah. He also made these little origami figurines out of cigarette boxes, which, I hate to say, are really cute.

Derek Morgan: Did you pinpoint the most active collectors?

Penelope Garcia: That would be his overseas fans.

Derek Morgan: What about local buyers who also turned up on the prison visitor log?

Penelope Garcia: Zilch.

Emily Prentiss: What about sellers? High-volume broker might know a broader spectrum of fans.

Penelope Garcia: There is one guy in particular who seems to be the local distributor, as it were.

Derek Morgan: You got a name?

Penelope Garcia: Shebang! Sid Rutledge.

Derek Morgan: Rutledge?

Emily Prentiss: You know him?

Derek Morgan: He's a guard at Hawkesville.

----------

Derek Morgan: Sid Rutledge, FBI. Open up… Just want to talk.

Emily Prentiss: I can't see anyone… Oh, guy's got two dead bolts. He doesn't use either?

Derek Morgan: Sid? Sid, we're coming in… Wakey, wakey, my man.

Emily Prentiss: Damn.

Derek Morgan: One to the grill, one to the groin. That's personal.

Emily Prentiss: Yeah, well, if Rutledge was selling the unsub memorabilia, he knew his identity.

Derek Morgan: Now the unsub's covering his tracks.

Emily Prentiss: Rutledge probably contacted him after you paid a visit to the prison.

Derek Morgan: He let him in, let his guard down, boom.

Emily Prentiss: A little, uh, heavy on the old spice.

Derek Morgan: Strikes me as an aqua velva guy.

Emily Prentiss: Man, you're good… Hey, it looks like he took something… Hello. I think we've got this unsub all wrong.

----------

Aaron Hotchner: There have been some strange happenings in this case, but I urge you not to abandon reason in the search of the truth. This is not the work of a ghost, and it's not the work of a killer come back from the dead. This is the work of somebody who lives right here in Lower Canaan, and this person is a woman.

Derek Morgan: Her last victim, Sid Rutledge-- he was the angel maker's mule. He smuggled items out of Hawkesville prison, including the semen that was planted at the first crime scene.

Spencer Reid: She killed Rutledge because he knew she was the copycat, and also because he was blackmailing her.

----------

Sid Rutledge: So I'm thinking you and I need to talk.

----------

Derek Morgan: We now know that Rutledge was transferred to Hawkesville from a female prison, in the wake of allegations that he was using his position to leverage sexual favours from inmates.

Aaron Hotchner: And we think he did the same thing to our unsub; in exchange for his silence, he wanted sex.

Deputy 1: Because she shot him in the junk, right?

Spencer Reid: That, and the fact that he took a pde-5 inhibitor shortly before his murder.

Merrill Dobson: A what?

Derek Morgan: Viagra.

Aaron Hotchner: We're looking for a white woman in her mid-30s and she's highly intelligent. And she's not just a fan, she's a groupie.

Derek Morgan: Now, she's not what you would normally expect. More often than not, they're attractive, they're well-educated, they're successful; some are even married.

Spencer Reid: Generally, they fall into types. Some are reformers. They're on a mission to save or rescue these murderers. Often, this type of groupie has been raised in a repressive, religious environment and specifically have been exposed to the ideals of sexual repression and subjugation of women.

Derek Morgan: Our unsub is a different type, one who suffers from hybristophilia. It's a sexual attraction to men who commit violent crimes. They give her a power that she lacks, which stems from low self-esteem and a need for a father figure.

Deputy 2: Well, the victims were raped. How do you explain that?

Derek Morgan: She's using an instrument to simulate the sexual assault... This is something that she keeps in her rape kit, along with the weapon that she's using to bludgeon her victims.

Jennifer Jareau: This is a list of women who visited and wrote the angel maker while he was in prison. We've started to track these leads, but the list is extensive, so we're gonna need your help.

----------

Emily Prentiss: Hey, you ever get groupies at your book signing?

David Rossi: Sometimes, if Barry Manilow isn't in town.

Emily Prentiss: Any of them look like that? Shara Carlino. She visited Ryan over 70 times.

David Rossi: Waits an average of 3 hours for a 10-minute visit, mandatory strip search. Would you endure that for a guy?

Emily Prentiss: For Barry Manilow, maybe. She was a marketing VP in Cincy till '99, moved here, took an outside sales job, commission only-- serious pay cut.

David Rossi: I'm guessing she came for the view.

----------

Emily Prentiss: According to these logs, you were the angel maker's number-one fan.

Shara Carlino: His name is Cortland, and I wasn't a fan.

Emily Prentiss: How would you characterize your relationship?

Shara Carlino: We were lovers.

David Rossi: Last time I checked, they didn't allow conjugal visits on death row.

Shara Carlino: It wasn't about physical interaction. When you take away the flesh, there's only the soul. Everything was understood. There were no secrets. Cortland made me feel alive, in a way no free man ever could.

Emily Prentiss: Where were you on the 16th of this month?

Shara Carlino: Why?

David Rossi: We believe this copycat killing was committed by a female fan, someone who knew Cortland very well.

Shara Carlino: I was out of town with the company. Ask anyone here.

David Rossi: Do you know another woman--

Shara Carlino: There were no others.

Emily Prentiss: I--I can show you logs, photocopies of fan letters, women who sent Cortland pictures, their underwear

Shara Carlino: They didn't mean anything to him.

Emily Prentiss: But whatever connection you had with Cortland was severed when he died.

David Rossi: Not the copycat's.

Emily Prentiss: Every time she kills, it reinforces their love.

David Rossi: That is, of course, unless you help us stop her.

Shara Carlino: He sent me a letter a few months before he--he was... I knew it wasn't meant for me, because it was addressed to... "My Dove." He never called me that.

Emily Prentiss: Do you still have it?

Shara Carlino: No. I burned it.

David Rossi: Did the text reveal anything about the woman?

Shara Carlino: The text was a joke. Usually his prose was seamless and beautiful, but... This was... Pedestrian and crude.

Emily Prentiss: You never asked him who this dove was? I thought there were no secrets between you.

Shara Carlino: You've never been in love, have you?

----------

Merrill Dobson: Victim's Maxine Chandler. Neighbours say she's lived here her whole life, all 28 years of it, anyway.

Aaron Hotchner: How many kids does she have?

Merrill Dobson: Well, none of her own. Runs a day care. The guy that called 911 came here to drop off his toddler, found Maxine in her bedroom. Coroner's in there with her now.

Derek Morgan: You check all entry points?

Emily Prentiss: Yeah. No damage, no tool marks. Same as the first.

Aaron Hotchner: Now that we have two victims, we have data we can compare. We should see what victimology can tell us.

Derek Morgan: I'll get J.J. to bring us the files on the first victim.

Aaron Hotchner: What'd you find?

Coroner: Well, I put the time of death around 2 a.m. Victim was struck multiple times with a blunt object. Signs of penetration, fluids.

Emily Prentiss: Same post-mortem mutilation?

Coroner: Same, but, uh, different.

----------

Emily Prentiss: 9 puncture marks this time.

Aaron Hotchner: I wish I could say this was about the unsub's disorganized behaviour or mounting rage.

Emily Prentiss: It doesn't feel that way.

Aaron Hotchner: No, they definitely mean something.

Emily Prentiss: Can I have your pen?

Aaron Hotchner: Yeah. What is it?

Emily Prentiss: I'm not sure… She did this.

Aaron Hotchner: What do you mean?

Emily Prentiss: The unsub. She made these dots like this before she made the puncture wounds.

Aaron Hotchner: That's why the coroner found paper in the wounds.

Emily Prentiss: It was a template. The Angel Maker did it from memory, but she needed a guide to get it right.

Aaron Hotchner: We need to go back and re-examine each of the patterns. Where's Reid?

----------

Spencer Reid: Here's another one to dove-- November 2, 2006.

David Rossi: Same thing?

Spencer Reid: Yeah. "Weather is good here. Out in the garden all day. Birds land on the fence. The moon is full now."

David Rossi: He got an hour a day in a concrete yard. There was no garden. There were no birds. Death row haiku. I mean, you have to try to write this bad.

Spencer Reid: I think he did. He tried very hard to put each word, each letter, even, in the right order.

David Rossi: So it's a code.

Spencer Reid: This steganographic method would allow him to write letters that don't appear enciphered. The real message would be hiding in plain sight.

David Rossi: What do you need to crack it?

Spencer Reid: The ability to clone myself and a year's supply of Adderall.

David Rossi: I'll put on the coffee.

----------

Emily Prentiss: Small towns suck for victimology. Too much overlap.

Derek Morgan: I've got both women at the same church, same doctor, same grocery store.

Jennifer Jareau: She's mimicking the angel maker. Maybe we should look at his victims.

Aaron Hotchner: Yeah, but there's a disconnect. The Angel Maker chose women because they excited him sexually. The copycat's satisfaction isn't sexual.

Derek Morgan: Now it's in perfectly re-creating the murders.

Emily Prentiss: So what she looks for in a victim is someone who's easy to kill.

Aaron Hotchner: Which, for her, means easy access to their homes. What did Delilah Grennan do for work?

Jennifer Jareau: She made jewellery, sold it out of her home.

Derek Morgan: So they both had home-based businesses. A stranger could walk in off the street and be a prospective customer.

Emily Prentiss: Unsub poses as a client, maybe uses the bathroom, cracks the window, so she can get back in later.

Aaron Hotchner: Let's check their business records and see who came by on the day of the murders… No matching names.

----------

Derek Morgan: Sky's so clear here, huh? Never see stars like this in D.C.

Emily Prentiss: It's beautiful… Oh, my god.

----------

Emily Prentiss: The puncture wounds on the victim's stomachs represent constellations.

David Rossi: Constellations? Don't tell me this guy was following the zodiac.

Emily Prentiss: No, these are from a family of constellations known as the Heavenly Waters.

Derek Morgan: Well, I guess we know how he came up with the nickname.

David Rossi: That's why he'd open up all the windows after each kill, so their souls could be released into the sky.

Emily Prentiss: Delphinus, the dolphin; equuleus, the little horse.  Anything sound familiar?

Derek Morgan: His origami things.

Aaron Hotchner: There are 9 constellations in the heavenly waters. The Angel Maker killed 6.

Emily Prentiss: Yeah, our unsub continued where he left off. First she did Vela, and then last night she did Carina. The only one left is Columba, the dove.

David Rossi: One more kill and she completes his set.

Aaron Hotchner: She knew the meaning of the stomach wounds, something even we didn't know.

Derek Morgan: She must have been a lot closer to Ryan than we thought.

Spencer Reid: They weren't just close. They were in love.

----------

David Rossi: How'd you crack it?

Spencer Reid: I profiled the author. Cortland Ryan was on death row with several high-ranking members of the Aryan brotherhood.

Jennifer Jareau: He got the code from the Aryans?

Spencer Reid: Either that or he read a lot of 16th-century literature. The Aryans liked to use a cipher based on a 400-year-old code written by sir Francis Bacon.

Derek Morgan: So it's a binary code.

Spencer Reid: Yeah. Bacon used a 21-letter alphabet. This one's 24. Each letter is assigned a bit string of 5 binary digits. This combination yields 32 possible encodings. Normally you'd use a computer to run all these combinations, but it was quicker just to do it longhand until I found the right one.

Emily Prentiss: He's so lifelike.

Spencer Reid: Now we don't have a complete record of their correspondence, but i was able to make a chronology. The woman he calls "Dove" established contact shortly after the trial.

Emily Prentiss: "My dearest Cortland, thank you for writing back to me. The day the verdict was read, we shared a silent moment..."

----------

Chloe Kelcher: "I knew then there was a force willing us together. Every time I see you, I feel warmed as if by the sun, and yet I fear if I come too close, I'll be consumed by your fire."

Cortland Ryan: Ever since your visit, I am crazed with thoughts of you. Already you've entered my dreams. Each time you appear to me, I'm embraced by a feeling of trust and belief, as if I've known you all my life."

Chloe Kelcher: "As always, I am touched by your words, but I long to see you again. Days pass quietly, one into the next...

Cortland Ryan: "My Dove..."

Chloe Kelcher: "I can think of little else..."

Cortland Ryan: "My secret wife... "

Chloe Kelcher: "If only they would let us marry... "

Cortland Ryan: "All appeals are lost... "

Chloe Kelcher: "I could finally hold your hand... "

Cortland Ryan: "The guards celebrated my defeat by clearing out my cell... "

Chloe Kelcher: "Here is my face... "

Cortland Ryan: "Possessions matter little to a condemned man... "

Chloe Kelcher: "They die with you, the only man who will ever truly see me."

Cortland Ryan: "But I can't leave this world before seeing your face one last time."

Chloe Kelcher: "I will bring a part of you back into the world, and forever you will watch over us from the stars."

----------

Emily Prentiss: What do you think she meant by that last line: I will bring a part of you back?

Derek Morgan: The murders? She brought him back to life.

Jennifer Jareau: What if she was talking about his child?

Spencer Reid: Well, she did say "us"-- watch over us from the stars.

David Rossi: She used the semen samples to plant evidence, not to get pregnant.

Aaron Hotchner: What if she did both?

Emily Prentiss: Well, if she actually had his kid, we might be able to track her through birth records.

Merrill Dobson: Agent Hotchner? We just got a report of a woman attacked in her house by a female assailant.

Jennifer Jareau: Is she okay?

Merrill Dobson: Sounds like it, but I can't say the same for the attacker, though. Neighbours heard cries for help, pretty soon half the block was on her.

----------

Deputy 1: The victim was coming home from work, said the suspect approached her in her driveway. Asked to use the phone to call a tow truck.

Aaron Hotchner: She let her in the house?

Deputy 1: That's when the suspect jumped her.

Aaron Hotchner: That's not our unsub's M.O.

Emily Prentiss: Maybe she was rushing it, trying to finish off the last victim… That's Shara.

Aaron Hotchner: You know her?

Emily Prentiss: Shara Carlino. Rossi and i already interviewed her. She's Cortland's number-one fan. Her alibi is solid. She's not our unsub.

----------

Emily Prentiss: Shara... Why?

Shara Carlino: It worked for her. Why not for me? I just want us to be together again.

----------

Penelope Garcia: Okay, there were 463 children born in the Lower Canaan area between 2006 and 2008, so if you want me to find baby angel maker, we're gonna have to narrow this down.

Jennifer Jareau: All right, well, Reid still has more letters to decode, but he did find a phrase: "I knew even before they told me that the future had taken root."

Penelope Garcia: Taken root? Sounds like someone got good news.

Jennifer Jareau: Date of conception.

Penelope Garcia: And the date of that letter?

Jennifer Jareau: Uh, January 7, 2007.

Penelope Garcia: Okay, so we fast-forward 9 months.

Jennifer Jareau: Uh, 10 months, actually.

Penelope Garcia: Really?

Jennifer Jareau: I know. It was news to me, too.

Penelope Garcia: Okay. So we'll search birth records from August to September 2007. How's that? We'll do single mothers only, in case she wanted to keep the father a secret, you know, didn't want to brag: "Oh, your baby daddy's a third-grade teacher? Well, mine likes to poke people in the stomach with tools, so there." There. 9 names. Now that's a little more manageable.

----------

Merrill Dobson: Hannah Dreyfus was in an auto accident. She could barely walk. Shannon Conway moved away when the plant closed a year ago.

Derek Morgan: Any other names you recognize?

Merrill Dobson: No. I don't-- whoa.

Aaron Hotchner: What is it?

Merrill Dobson: Well, this one here sounds familiar, but I can't really place it. Chloe Kelcher.

Spencer Reid: Chloe Kelcher. That is familiar… Chloe Kelcher. She was on the jury.

Derek Morgan: Well, that makes sense. She would have been exposed to the case evidence, seen firsthand what he did to his victims.

Aaron Hotchner: That's when she fell in love with him, sitting across the courtroom every day.

Merrill Dobson: Well, it's one thing to have a relationship with a killer, it's another to become one.

Spencer Reid: There might have been an incident that prompted the transformation.

Aaron Hotchner: I think I know what it was.

Spencer Reid: It's a death certificate. Microvesicular steatosis. Her baby died at the hospital.

----------

Derek Morgan: Clear!

Aaron Hotchner: Clear.

Derek Morgan: She's not here.

Aaron Hotchner: All right. We all know what the end game is. She's looking for her final victim. She may have already chosen one. Let's tear this place apart, look for anything that might tell us who she's targeted.

----------

David Rossi: Look at this. She did everything she could to deny the truth.

Merrill Dobson: What, that he was a killer?

David Rossi: That they'd never be together.

----------

Derek Morgan: Note the view. Daddy's watching.

Aaron Hotchner: It must have devastated her to think that she could hold on to Ryan by having his child and then lose the baby.

Derek Morgan: Completing his murders became the only way she could hold on to him.

Aaron Hotchner: Not the only way. Well...

Derek Morgan: Guess that answers that.

David Rossi: I assume that's who i think it is. Got an appointment book here. Meetings with Delilah Grennan and Maxine Chandler the day of each murder.

Aaron Hotchner: Sheriff, have you found her tools or the gun?

Merrill Dobson: Nothing yet.

David Rossi: She has something this morning: Faye Landreaux, 162 north--

Merrill Dobson: North Red River Drive. She's a CPA. She does my taxes.

Aaron Hotchner: She works out of her house?

Merrill Dobson: Yep.

Aaron Hotchner: Let's go.

----------

Merrill Dobson: That's it. '85 Volkswagen. Chloe's here.

Derek Morgan: Car's still warm. We got to be right behind her.

Aaron Hotchner: Her windows are closed. That's a good sign.

Merrill Dobson: Well, my team's ready. Let's get in there.

Aaron Hotchner: Sheriff, we didn't recover a gun at Chloe's house. We have to assume she's armed.

Merrill Dobson: Well, so are we.

David Rossi: If you storm in now, she'll shoot, and chances are she'll start with your accountant.

Derek Morgan: What do you think, guys?

Aaron Hotchner: I think you should look for an open window. Sheriff, I need you to bring all your vehicles around to the front, Facing forward with lights off, and i need a megaphone.

----------

Emily Prentiss: Hotch, I don't think you can get through to her.

Aaron Hotchner: No, but maybe you can.

Spencer Reid: Profile's clear. You can't talk this woman down.

Aaron Hotchner: No, but just to occupy her. If we're right about the M.O. She's left a window open somewhere. Morgan will find a way in. We just need to buy him some time.

----------

Aaron Hotchner: Hit the lights.

Emily Prentiss: Chloe, this is the FBI. We know you're in there, and we know what you're trying to do.

Faye Landreaux: What are you doing? What are you doing?

Chloe Kelcher: Don't move, bitch, or I swear to god, I will split you in two.

Faye Landreaux: Please, don't do this.

Chloe Kelcher: Roll over. Roll over. Roll over!

Emily Prentiss: I know you think that finishing what Cortland started will bring you closer to him, but first you should know who he really was.

Chloe Kelcher: Don't worry. There's a much better place for you.

Emily Prentiss: I know you thought you were special, but the truth is, the same things he wrote to you, he wrote to many other women. I've seen the letters. Dozens read the same lines: without the flesh, there is only the soul. "You don't need to touch me to feel the love I have for you." Does that sound familiar? Cortland wasn't who you thought he was. He--he was a narcissist, Chloe. He wasn't capable of loving anyone but himself… To Carla Kettinger, he wrote: "Ever since your visit…"

Cortland Ryan: "I am crazed with thoughts of you... Already you have entered my dreams."

Emily Prentiss: "Each time you appear to me..."

Cortland Ryan: "I am embraced by a feeling of trust and belief, as if I've known you all my life. It's clear to me now that you are my fate. We are destined to be together."

Emily Prentiss: "And when I am gone, that will not change…"

Cortland Ryan: "I will live on in you. In death, our union will be eternal…"

Emily Prentiss: "All appeals are lost. The guards celebrated my defeat by clearing out..."

Derek Morgan: No, no, no. Don't speak. Don't talk. I'm gonna get you out of here, okay?

Cortland Ryan: "Possessions matter little to a condemned man, but I cannot leave this world without seeing your face one last time."

Derek Morgan: Okay, that window over there. I want you to go to that window. It's gonna be okay. Okay, go, go, go.

Emily Prentiss: It isn't your fault that he made you feel these things. It isn't your fault your baby died.

Chloe Kelcher: No!

----------

Emily Prentiss: It's over, Chloe. We have Faye… You have nowhere to go.

Merrill Dobson: I think we got some tear gas. I'm assuming it's still good.

Aaron Hotchner: We're not gonna need it. She doesn't have any place to go.

Merrill Dobson: Well, maybe she'll do us all a favour and put herself down.

Aaron Hotchner: She's not gonna do that, either. She's not done… Chloe, drop the gun. Chloe, drop the gun.

Merrill Dobson: Damn it, lady, drop it!

Chloe Kelcher: I'm coming to you, baby.

David Rossi: Hotch.

Merrill Dobson: What did she do?

Emily Prentiss: We took her victim. She had to complete his work.

Aaron Hotchner: Wendell Berry said, "The past is our definition. we may strive with good reason to escape it or to escape what is bad in it, but we will escape it only by adding something better to it."

----------

Sela Dobson: I made these for your flight.

Aaron Hotchner: Thank you.

Sela Dobson: It's small thanks, but--  

Merrill Dobson: My recipe.

Aaron Hotchner: I'm sorry you had to go through all this again.

Sela Dobson: I suppose we never stop going through it, but... Maybe now.

Aaron Hotchner: Hopefully. She gonna be okay?

Merrill Dobson: Yeah, she'll be fine. Maybe you got to sit with the past before you can walk away from it.

Aaron Hotchner: Thank you, Sheriff.

Merrill Dobson: Thank you.

----------

Jennifer Jareau: Anyone get directions back to the airstrip?

Derek Morgan: Town's only got one road. We'll find it.

Emily Prentiss: Yeah, Morgan doesn't like to follow directions. You didn't know about that?

Spencer Reid: Yeah, he likes to vibe it.

Derek Morgan: Okay, smart ass. You drive.

Emily Prentiss: Oh, great.

Jennifer Jareau: Thank you.

Aaron Hotchner: For the flight.

Emily Prentiss: What?

Aaron Hotchner: Just gonna grab my bag.

David Rossi: You're not coming?

Aaron Hotchner: I, uh, think I'm gonna drive.

Emily Prentiss: Oh, it's over 7 hours back to Quantico.

Aaron Hotchner: I really shouldn't be flying.

David Rossi: I've done that drive before. You'll see a lot of pretty country along the byways. You might consider... Stretching it out a day or two.

Aaron Hotchner: Maybe I will. Thanks.
