Quotes 

• Reporter #2 : You're saying that's why Rodney Harris killed those men?

  Captain Stan Gordinski : Yes, that's what I said.

  Reporter #3 : So, being abused made him a killer?

  Derek Morgan : No. No, it did not. The vast majority of child sex victims don't grow up to be sex offenders or criminals. I know this because... and let me be direct... I was also one of Carl Buford's victims.

  Akil : Yo, Mohammed, wasn't "Carl Buford" your government name?

  Derek Morgan : [on TV]  Victimization does not cause offending.

  Carl Buford : Yeah. I don't know what he's talking about. I loved that kid.

  Derek Morgan : It can cause a lot of isolation... And there can be anger and rage. It can cause pain and suffering... but you can get through it. It can make you stronger. It does not have to destroy your life. It can make you fight back. And it can make you want to spend the rest of your life protecting others.

• Derek Morgan : You see, what I need is a list of everyone you've victimized.

  Carl Buford : You still like mint chocolate-chip ice cream?

  Derek Morgan : The U.S. Attorney has offered immunity. They won't charge you with molesting any of the boys on this list as long as this list is complete.

  Carl Buford : Or was it butter pecan?

  Derek Morgan : You leave even one name off that list, this deal is dead.

  Carl Buford : Are you threatening me, D.?

  Derek Morgan : With my hand on the Qur'an. See, right now, you're in here for serial murder. And I bet that gives you a whole lot of credit out there in the yard. Am I right? But what do you think would happen if the brothers in here learned what you were really guilty of? So let me be direct, Mohammed, start writing.

  Carl Buford : I'll give you the list on one condition. All I want is a handshake. That's it. A gentleman's agreement. What do you say?

  [shakes hands] 

  Carl Buford : You were always special, Derek. You may have me in here, but there's a whole lot more of me out there, boy.

  Aaron Hotchner : You didn't have to shake his hand.

  Derek Morgan : It's a long list, Hotch.

  Aaron Hotchner : This UnSub's devolving. He'll stand out. He won't be hard to find.

  Derek Morgan : I'm gonna use the head before we leave.

• Carl Buford : [Morgan visits Buford in prison]  Derek Morgan.

  Derek Morgan : Got yourself a new look, huh?

  Carl Buford : I'm Mohammad Allam now. Of all my boys, you're the last one that I thought would come back to me.
