Criminal Minds (TV Series)

The Caller (2013)

Jeanne Tripplehorn: Alex Blake

Quotes 

• Alex Blake : Hey, guys, this is awful. Daniel's father didn't just make him watch the sexual encounters, he made him videotape them.

• Dr. Spencer Reid : To switch from male child victims to a female adult's highly unusual.

  Alex Blake : The last call went to Malcolm's cell phone. Maybe this is personal, just like torturing Richard Clayvin in the psychiatric unit was.

  Dr. Spencer Reid : The fathers could be the real target of the unsub's rage.

• Jennifer Jareau : [watching grieving parents]  Look at how bereft they are. That's hard to fake.

  Alex Blake : There's no way any of them are involved.

• Jennifer Jareau : No signs of forced entry or a struggle, according to the initial police report.

  Penelope Garcia : Mom and dad put him to bed at ten. Woke up this morning, he was gone.

  Alex Blake : Any visitors or workers to the house recently?

  Penelope Garcia : No, but the parents say in the last two weeks, they've received five phone calls from what sounds like a little boy prank calling them.

  Aaron Hotchner : They complained to authorities, but police determined that no laws had been broken.

  Penelope Garcia : Mm-hmm. The little boy says "I'm gonna get you", according to police reports. There's a lot of crazy people talking in the background; it sounds like it's coming from an asylum or prison.

  Derek Morgan : Well, I'd say the calls might coincidental, except the boy called again right after the parents found Andy missing, and he had a different message this time; "Did you see what I did?".

  Jennifer Jareau : So he's taunting them. Maybe this is about revenge.

  Alex Blake : "I'm gonna get you" is typically a threat, but in the case of children, it can also be a phrase used during play.

  Dr. Spencer Reid : You know, this sounds similar to a cold case from fifteen years ago. Frankie Clayvin of Memphis.

  David Rossi : I remember that. Gideon handled it. It obviously pre-dates all of you.

  Dr. Spencer Reid : Frankie Clayvin was nine years old at the time. He never made it home from school one day, was found dead in the woods thirty-six hours later five miles from his house.

• Dr. Spencer Reid : This is where a pimp works?

  Alex Blake : According to our local source, of all the pimps in town, this is the guy known for imported girls.

  [Blake and Reid go into the shop and Blake plays the recorded voice] 

  Alex Blake : Do you know who she is?

  Dr. Spencer Reid : She's speaking Brazilian Portuguese if that helps jog your memory.

  Leon Burns : What am I, Rosetta Stone?

  Alex Blake : Well, we have reason to believe she's a prostitute. Any of your girls, maybe from 15 years back, speak Portuguese?

  Leon Burns : I don't know who sent you guys, but you obviously got the wrong idea about me. As you can plainly see, I'm a... purveyor of fine meats.

  Dr. Spencer Reid : No, Leon, we were told that you run a pretty lucrative business on the side.

  Leon Burns : Now you're flattering me. I make a mean barbecue sauce, but I don't make much money on it.

  Alex Blake : You know, I find it interesting you haven't asked what any of this is about.

  Leon Burns : I have a dreadful lack of curiosity.

  Alex Blake : Well, let me fill you in. A child was murdered yesterday, and at his home they found blood on his front door. Pig's blood.

  Dr. Spencer Reid : You know what? It actually just occurred to me, but I feel like this is the sort of shop you could find a lot of pig's blood.

  Leon Burns : Ah, you're right.

  Dr. Spencer Reid : We're not saying you had anything to do with this, Leon. But we are saying that the F.B.I. is desperate for any leads, and it would be a shame if we had to shut your shop down to collect D.N.A. samples to try to identify the source of that pig's blood.

  Leon Burns : Now, look, I don't know nothin' about blood on a door. But I think I do remember something about a couple of Brazilian girls who used to work for a... an acquaintance of mine.

  Dr. Spencer Reid : What were their names?

  Leon Burns : Raquel Castro and Luisa Gomez. Raquel moved back to Brazil in '95.

  Alex Blake : What about Luisa?

  Leon Burns : That bitch? She totally betrayed my buddy.

  Alex Blake : Did she walk out on him?

  Leon Burns : No. She married his best customer.
