Reid: "Case must be local. JJ said not to bring a go bag." he says when they come off the elevator

Morgan: "What's the army doing here?"

Emily: "What the hell is going on?" she asks looking around at all the people in the room as they move to the meeting room 
➰
JJ: "Guys, this is Dr. Linda Kimura, Chief of special pathogens with the CDC."

Watson: "Hello." she nods at her 

Linda: "Hello. I'm sorry to meet under these circumstances."

Reid: "What circumstances?"

Hotch: "We need to get started." he declares as they look at the worried expression on his face

JJ: "Last night, 25 people checked into emergency rooms in and around Annapolis. They were all at the same park after 2 p.m. yesterday. Within 10 hours, the first victim died. It's now just past 7 a.m. The next day, we have 12 dead."

Morgan: "Lung failure and black lesions. Anthrax?"

Reid: "Anthrax doesn't kill this fast."

Linda: "This strain does."

Emily: "What are we doing about potential mass targets-airports, malls, trains?"

Hotch: "There's a media blackout."

Emily: "We're not telling the public?"

Watson: "We'd have a mass exodus."

Rossi: "The psychology of group panic would cause more deaths than this last attack."

Reid: "Yeah, and if it does get out, whoever did this might go underground or destroy their samples."

Emily: "Or if they wanted attention and didn't get it, they might attack again. Doesn't the public have the right to know that?"

Hotch: "If there is another attack, there's no way we'll be able to keep it quiet. Our best chance of protecting the public is by building a profile as quickly as we can."

Reid: "What do we know about this strain?"

Linda: "The spores are weaponized, reduced to a respiral ideal that attacks deep in the lungs. Odorless and invisible."

Rossi: "A sophisticated strain. Only a scientist would know how to do that."

Watson: "These lesions are doubling in size in a matter of hours."

Linda: "It's not the lesions I'm worried about. It's the lungs. We don't know how to combat the toxins once they're inside. And the reality is, we may lose them all."

JJ: "The remaining survivors have been moved to a special wing at Walter Reed hospital. Our offices will become a small command center."

Hotch: "We'll be working with military scientists from Fort Detrick."

Rossi: "General Whitworth is coming here?"

Hotch: "He's in charge of site containment and spore analysis. Determining what strain this is will help inform who's responsible."

Linda: "My team is in charge of treating all victims."

Hotch: "Reid, go with Dr. Kimura to the hospital. Interview the victims. Morgan, Watson and Prentiss, there's a hazmat team that will accompany you to the crime scene. There's cipro. Everybody needs to take it before we go." he nods to the pills in small cups in front of them  

Linda: "We don't know if it's effective against this strain, but it's something."

Emily: "This is really happening?" she asks while looking down at the pills
