Criminal Minds, Season 3

Morgan:
Reid. [Reid turns to look at him] You know, you're not the only one who identifies with him. You said I was a high school jock. I was, but not at first. My freshman year I was five foot three. I weighed a buck twenty soaking wet, so trust me when I tell you I got my ass kicked every day. So the next summer I hit the weights. And I got lucky. I grew six inches. But it was never about vanity, Reid. It was about survival.

Reid:
I was in the library and Harper Hillman comes up to me and she tells me that Alexa Lisbon wants to meet me behind the field house. Alexa Lisbon's, like, easily the prettiest girl in school.

Morgan:
So what happened? Alexa wasn't there?

Reid:
She was there; so was the entire football team. They stripped me naked and tied me to a goal post. So many kids were there, you know, just watching.

Morgan:
Nobody tried to stop them?

Reid:
I begged. I begged them to, but they just, they just watched. Then finally they got bored and they left. It was midnight when I finally got home and my mom didn't-- Mom was having one of her episodes, so she didn't even realize I was late.

Morgan:
You never told her what happened?

Reid:
Never told anybody. I thought-- It's one of things that I thought that if I didn't talk about it I'd just forget, but I remember it like it was yesterday.

Morgan:
[Sighs] Ah, Reid, you don't need an eidetic memory for that. You know, we forget half the things they teach us in school, but when it comes to the torment and the people who inflicted it, we've all got an elephant's memory.

Reid:
Owen just wants to forget. I know what that's like.
