Dr. Spencer Reid:
You know, that profile kind of makes it sound like schizophrenia leads to serial killing.

Derek Morgan:
That's not what we said at all, Reid.

Dr. Spencer Reid:
You know, my mom has schizophrenia. There are many different types.

Derek Morgan:
I know that.

Dr. Spencer Reid:
Catatonic, disorganized... Just because someone suffers from an inability to organize their thoughts, or they can't bathe or dress themselves, it doesn't mean they'd stab someone in the chest 30 times postmortem.

Derek Morgan:
Reid, what's really going on?

Dr. Spencer Reid:
Our UnSub's hallucinations aren't fractured like a typical schizophrenic. They're vivid and clear, leading me to believe that we're missing an important variable. Rather than making crazy conjectures, I think we should be trying to figure out what it is.

Derek Morgan:
Okay, listen to me. I know this is a scary age for you. It's when schizophrenic breaks happen. Have you talked to anybody about this?

Dr. Spencer Reid:
Emily.

Derek Morgan:
Have you seen a doctor?

Dr. Spencer Reid:
They all say I'm fine.

Derek Morgan:
Then why don't you believe them?

Dr. Spencer Reid:
Because predicting one's chances of developing a genetic condition are like finding a penny in an ocean. I have terrible headaches. I can't sleep at night. I can't focus on our cases. I only read five books last week.

Derek Morgan:
Come on, kid, you gotta cut yourself some slack. You're also depressed about Prentiss, and I get it. We all are. Reid, I miss her every day. But if your mind was splitting, do you really think you'd be able to figure out that this team is missing a variable?

Dr. Spencer Reid:
I'm just speculating that we are. I need to prove it.

Derek Morgan:
Okay, then, you do that. The moment you are wandering around the streets aimlessly, that's when I'll be concerned about you. Come on, pretty boy. Let's get to work.
