Waitress: "Rib eye, adam and eve on a wrap, steak-umm, and a strawberry shake for the gentleman at table 8. Ah, finally! You walk into my life" she says as Gideon, Morgan, and Watson walk into a diner "What took you so long, handsome? Honey? No, thanks. I don't need anything." she says as Gideon ignores her and heads over to where a man is sitting in a booth
Gideon: "Mind if I sit here?"
Man: "Please. You should try Fat Sam's milkshakes."
Gideon: "I'm cold and tired."
Man: "You're also not from around here."
Gidoen: "Where are you from?"
Man: "You really should try the shakes. What's your name? Come on. Names are a hobby of mine."
Gideon: "Jason Gideon."
Man: "Jason. From Greek mythology. To heal. Gideon. A hero from the old testament who led the israelites against the midianites. Your parents had great ambitions for you. I'm Frank. Germanic. Third century. Derived from the name of a type of spear. I wonder what aspirations my parents had for me."
Morgan: "Why don't we cut the crap, Frank? Where is she?"
Frank: "Now, that's direct."
Gideon: "You're right. I'm not from around here. I'm an FBI agent." he says holding up his badge as the others in the diner start to become wary
Frank: "The BAU? You didn't disappoint your parents."
Gideon: "We're looking for a man in his mid- to late-fifties. Listens to Beethoven, wears a corduroy jacket with fleece-lined collar. He's left-handed" he says as Watson pushes him back into the seat and pulls a notebook out of his pocket as Morgan keeps a defensive stand in case he tries anything on her "In his right inside jacket pocket will be a notebook, and it will give the extensive detailed accounts of the torture inflicted on every one of his victims."
Frank: "That's quite a magic trick."
Watson: "No magic trick, frank. Just a profile of a sadistic serial killer" she says looking through the book "Gideon, this thing is brand-new. There's only two entries in it: "Black male, 220 pounds, portly; white female, early twenties." This doesn't prove anything."
Frank: "Guess what. When I'm finished with my shake, you'll get what you're here for, but then i'm going to get up and i'm going to walk out of here and you and your lapdogs are going to let me."
Gideon: "You know what, Frank? That would be a magic trick." he says as a bunch of police cars suround the diner

Gideon: "Aristotle once said evil brings men together."

Officer: "I don't give a rat's ass. Feds or no feds that bastard doesn't give her back to us in the next 15 minutes, we go in! Agreed?!"
All: "Agreed! Agreed! Agreed?! Agreed!"

Morgan: "He's looked at that clock 3 times in as many minutes. He's waiting for something."
Frank: "If I had your looks do you know how much easier my life would be?"
Morgan: "If you think you're gonna negotiate your way out of this one, you got a whole nother thing coming."
Gideon: "Want to know how we caught you?"
Frank: "Please."
Watson: "Gideon, those men out there want to kill this guy. We're in the middle. We don't have time for explanations."
Frank: "You have the time it will take me to finish this shake."
Gideon: "That's all I need. We got a request from Sheriff Georgia Davis."

One day earlier

JJ: "1996. The ribcage of a male was found in the desert rose national park. It was never identified. This morning, the remains of two victims were found in almost exactly the same area."
Emily: "Well, one year later is cause for concern, but 10 years? That could be a coincidence."
Reid: "It would be if the unidentified male wasn't missing a right rib bone."
Hotch: "And the torso found this morning is missing exactly the same bone."
Reid: "Both of them seem to be surgically removed, and the advanced rate of decomposition on the male means that he died far before the female."
JJ: "Oh, Katherine Hale. They found a bracelet on her wrist. She ran away about two weeks ago from her small Colorado town."
Watson: "Unsub's crossing state lines. He's mobile."
Derek: "If the remains are related to the same killer, where's he been for 10 years?"
Gideon: "Killing. Unsolved case files going back 30 years" he says putting a box on the table and pulling out a bunch of files "Every case, the victimology is the same. The unwanted. This box is just the tip of the iceberg. 13 cases spanning 30 years. Same M.O. Right rib bone is missing. It's him, Hotch. It's the same killer."
Hotch: "All the remains were dumped in remote areas and always near Interstate 80. And up till now, no remains this intact or this close to the actual time of kill have been found."
Gideon: "Never two victims dumped at the same time in the same place."
Watson: "All of these killings the work of just one man?"
Gideon: "The most prolific serial killer ever."
