Diane Turner:
I was hoping you'd figure out my riddle. I mean, I knew you would. The fun was just how fast you'd do it. All this and brains, too.

Dr. Spencer Reid:
It took me a long time. To be honest, I was distracted by your thesis.

Diane Turner:
You read my thesis?

Dr. Spencer Reid:
I did. You know, I think your writing could put you on the same plane as Jonas Salk. I've already sent it to the NIH.

Diane Turner:
Flattery is not gonna get you out of this. I know what's waiting for me outsides.

Dr. Spencer Reid:
I've arranged for your freedom.

Diane Turner:
The federal government doesn't make deals with people like me.

Dr. Spencer Reid:
Not true. Nazi scientists were recruited for the Manhattan Project. Mafia Bosses are regularly put into witness protection. If what you have is valuable enough, the federal government will work with you. And what you have is very valuable.

Diane Turner:
And what do I have, Doctor?

Dr. Spencer Reid:
You have a brain that doesn't play by normal societal rules. And I know that all your life the people you care about the most keep leaving. There's a part of you that thinks it's because of that brain. I'm here because I'm not going to leave you. I'm here because... I just hope that I get the chance.

Diane Turner:
Chance at what?

Dr. Spencer Reid:
To be with you. Me for her. That was the deal, right?

Diane Turner:
You're choosing me over her?

Dr. Spencer Reid:
Diane, how could it be anyone else?

Diane Turner:
Prove it.

Dr. Spencer Reid:
All right. How?

Diane Turner:
Say it again. This time say it to her face. [takes blindfold off]

Dr. Spencer Reid:
I don't love you. Sorry.

Dr. Maeve Donovan:
I understand.
