Criminal Minds (2005–…): Season 12, Episode 13 - Spencer - full transcript

Matamoros, Tamaulipas
MEXICO

(SPEAKING SPANISH)

Get out of the car with your hands up.

Get out of the car!

Get out!

Put your hands where we can see them!

On the ground. The ground.

Face down.

Face down!

Don't move.

It's empty.



Go to the trunk.

Put him in the police car.

Hey...

You're under arrest.

Understand?

Hey fool, you understand or no?

Let's go.

REID: "There is not
a righteous man on Earth

"who does what is right
and never sins."

Ecclesiastes 7:20.

(OFFICER SPEAKING SPANISH)

Turn to the camera.

Over here, at the camera.

(SNAPPING FINGERS)



The camera.

(CAMERA CLICKING)

Hey. (SNAPPING FINGERS)

Look up.

Oye. (CONTINUES SNAPPING FINGERS)

The camera.

Open.

I have a small gift for you.

(CELL DOOR CREAKING)

Go.

Go inside man, he won't bite.

You're supposed to let me outta here now.

Where are we?

Disneyland.

I should call my mom.

You need...

Your mommy?

You're gonna need a lot
more than that, vato.

Sit down.

You're American?

Where's your identification?

I don't know.

Your papers? Passport?

Something's wrong.
I can't...

I can't remember
anything.

What's your name?

What happened to your hand?

I don't know.

It seems like the kind
of thing a person would remember.

It could get infected.

Get the medic in here.

OFFICER: Si.

Thank you.

I should call someone.

You don't get a phone call.

That surprises Americans
when they get in trouble here.

But maybe if you help me
figure out

why you had narcotics
in your possession,

I can help you
notify someone.

You forgot that, too?
In the trunk of your car?

(SIREN, CRASH)

What were you doing
way out there?

I, uh...

Was meeting someone.

I was meeting a woman.

I'm not usually like this.

Heroin will do that.

I don't use drugs.

You just run them.

You're not high
right now?

Why are you in Mexico?

Because I'm trying to...

Help my mom.

Your mother is with you
in Mexico?

Mmm-mmm.
She's not, but...

Rosa.

I'm meeting Rosa,
who's a doctor,

so I should find her.

Rosa who?

Where does she live?

I'm sorry,
I don't know.

Jefe.

Deme.

Yeah.

You're not just American.

You're Dr. Spencer Reid
with the FBI?

Thanks, Cruz.
This is bad.

I know.
It doesn't make sense.

JJ: what's wrong?

Reid is in jail.

Jail?

PRENTISS: In Mexico.

What the hell
is he doing down there?

I don't know.
I didn't talk to him.

The call came in
to Cruz from their lead investigator.

What's he being held for?

Drug possession,

with intent
to distribute.

What type of drugs?

Cocaine and heroin.

Oh, my God.

This can't be happening.

We need Lewis and Walker
here ASAP.

Yeah. I can call them.
I can do that.

(LINE RINGING)

I'm gonna run some tests

to figure out
what you're on right now.

Thank you. Helpful.

We're having a hard time
finding this Dr. Rosa.

You still don't remember
her last name

or where you met her?

I'm trying.

When my officers
chased you,

you were racing
toward the border.

My guess is you planned
on crossing it.

Is that true?

No, I, uh...

Think I was chasing
someone.

Who?

They were in front of me.

Maybe your officers
saw them.

They did.

No one got the tags.

This has to be
a mistake.

I think I'm being framed.

You have enemies
who would do this?

LEWIS: This has
got to be Scratch.

He was laying low.
Now we know why.

Crossing the border
as a fugitive is a huge risk.

The reward is greater.
He's been punishing the team.

Now his target is Reid.

Peter Lewis dropped
off the map

after attacking
Tara's family.

Maybe he's been hiding
in Mexico this whole time.

We also have to consider
this isn't related to him.

Who else would it be?

Drug cartels.

Could have threatened Reid
and used him as a mule.

Agreed. This could simply
be a case of bad luck.

Reid was in the wrong place
at the wrong time.

Spence's mom is okay.

The home nurse he hired
said all is stable.

Oh, thank the stars.

ALVEZ: How long did he tell
the nurse he'd be gone?

Uh, three days.

That sounds reasonable.

After the Palm Springs case,

Reid said he had
to get back to Houston

to talk to his mom's doctor.

Well, Houston is only
a five-hour drive from the border.

Usually I can read him.

I can't believe
I didn't pick up on any of this.

He didn't want you to,
and there's no way

you would have guessed
he'd end up in Mexico.

The question is,
why did he go down there?

And why does
he have narcotics?

Yeah, exactly.
That... That...

He wouldn't...
He wouldn't do that.

I'm not gonna share
any secrets I'm not supposed to,

but those drugs
were planted on him.

Absolutely.
But there's something bigger in play.

That's why he crossed
the border and kept it a secret.

There's something
he didn't want to share with any of you.

Okay, so what would make him
risk everything?

His mom.

Yeah, but she's here
and she's safe.

-(BEEP)
-Oh, wait.

Cruz just sent me
the arresting report.

Hold, please.
Translating now.

Okay.

It says here that Reid
was involved

in a high-speed chase.

What? He hardly ever drives.

None of this sounds
like him.

It says he was wearing jeans,
he was really confused. This...

According to the arresting
officer, he was really high on something.

No, no, he wouldn't
do that. Not after what happened

with Tobias Hankel.

Who's that?

An offender with DID

who kidnapped
and drugged Reid.

When was this?

Ten years ago.

What does the report
say about the intent to distribute.

Uh, it says he was charged
with constructive possession,

and in the duffel bag
there was cocaine, cash,

and three bricks of heroin.

Okay, we'll be there
in less than an hour.

Dave, were you able
to reach Jack Garrett?

He's deep in a case,
but he promised to do what he can.

Okay. We're gonna need
all the help we can get.

(SPEAKING SPANISH)

Roll up your sleeves.

Oh... Please don't.

Please, I don't want it.
I don't want it.

All done.

Hold this there.

Your veins were hard to find.
You're dehydrated.

DAD: Spencer, please go
to the other room.

MOM: Don't treat him
like a child.

DAD: I'm not gonna
have this conversation in front of him.

MOM: I'm not crazy.

If you refuse to take care
of yourself, I can't help you.

You're weak.

I'm not weak.

I know, honey.

ADULT REID: I'm not weak.

I'm not weak.

I'm not weak.

I'm not weak.

I'm not weak.

You know, we should check
with Monty over at IRT

to see how many times Reid
has crossed the border.

Our smarts are on
the same channel I just IMed him.

Where are you
with the searches?

The Scratch of it all,
I am thus far coming up with nothing.

For all we know,
Peter Lewis could be in Mexico

orchestrating
this whole thing.

We're talking about a dude
who hacked into DMV records,

and cross that with a cyber wall
run by the Mexican drug cartel,

which is and even scarier wall of cyber
than I'm used to.

What about Reid?

Oh, right. Well,
luckily,

he leaves more digital
breadcrumbs than Mr. Lewis,

IE, I have info
on his flight to Houston.

Looks like he checked in
and out of a hotel there.

But if he rented wheels
to get to Mexico, there's no record of it.

Well, maybe he has
a contact down there

and he could have
borrowed their car.

He could have taken a bus.

There's all kinds of ways
to cross the border.

I'll keep looking.

Okay, so I dug around
his desk,

I found a whole lot
of articles in medical journals,

no big surprise.

This is all about
experimental medicine.

Okay. Experimental
medicine makes sense.

I got an email from
a librarian friend of mine

from the FBI library.
It looks like our boy wonder

has been processing
a lot with that beautiful brain of his,

All having to do with
alternative medicinal procedures

for fighting Alzheimer's.

Well, he told me
he was supplementing her meds

with omega-3s
and making sure

she was eating a ton
of leafy greens.

But he said her prescriptions
plus vitamins weren't enough.

Maybe he took it
to a new level.

Because it takes years
to pass the FDA guidelines,

a lot of holistic medicine
is practiced outside the United States.

Okay, they have landed
and they are on the way to Spence.

All right, well, let's
start digging through these,

see if we can find
anything that can help.

(BUZZER SOUNDS,
DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES)

Thanks for calling us.

A US Fed in our custody isn't
something we see every day.

We appreciate you
letting us talk to him.

Have you gotten his tox
screen panels back yet?

-No.
-You will need to expedite that.

We have cause to believe
that agent Reid was drugged.

He was definitely high
and driving like a maniac

with $20,000 worth of heroin
in his possession.

Both of which
put my officers at risk.

You're in our jurisdiction.

The rules are different here.

We understand.

Hey, Reid.

It's good to see you,
brother.

It's me, Luke.

Luke.

Thank you for coming.

Of course.

We're gonna get you
out of here, kid.

We need to work out
some details with the locals, okay?

Who was your contact
down here?

Rosa.

Rosa Medina.
I think she's a doctor.

(CELL PHONE BEEPS)

All right.

Where did you
meet her?

I don't remember.

If you saw her,
would you remember her?

Yeah. I think so.

You're missing time,
aren't you?

It's peeking out.
It's coming in flashes.

And you've been drugged.

Yeah, but I didn't
take it myself.

Well, of course
you didn't, Spencer.

We're thinking
it might be Scratch.

Scratch.

(CELL PHONE RINGS)

Excuse me.

ALVEZ: Hey, JJ.

Is he okay?

Yeah. I mean,
he's in one piece.

I'm not sure
he recognizes us.

WALKER: That could be
the drugs.

Would a cognitive help?

I really think
we're a little far off

for that right now. Um,

he definitely didn't
recognize Scratch's name.

But he wrote the name
of his local contact,

Rosa Medina, on his arm.

I just sent the pic to Garcia.

He says that she's a doctor.

So his short-term
is coming back, but it's limited.

It sounds like
his long-term is still a mess.

Okay, this definitely
reads chicken Scratch,

But it's...oh, there are
a lot of Rosa Medinas in Mexico.

Well, let's start
with women in Houston and Brownsville,

and then cross them
with Mexican citizens.

Got it.

He told Emily

he was gonna talk
to his mom's doctor.

If that was true,
we all assumed

it was the doctor
from the clinic,

but maybe it was
this Rosa Medina.

And she could be
being cautious, which is why

we haven't been able
to find any communication between them.

And why should she
be cautious?

Well, because in 2015
60 holistic doctors

across the United States
died mysteriously.

Some were accidents,
others violent attacks,

others were deemed
suicide.

Conspiracy theorists
believe these doctors

were targeted fatally
by pharmaceutical companies

for their belief
in holistic practice.

Well, then Rosa Medina
might not be her real name.

You think
she might have an alias?

Look, I've seen it
plenty of times.

If she's afraid
of consequences,

maybe she used
an anagram.

How many holistic
doctors with connections

between Texas
and Mexico?

Uh, Sophia Flores.

Ana Sorel.

Nadie Ramos.

Juliet Hernandez.

What's the story
with Nadie Ramos?

Uh... Uh, let's see.

She specializes
in experimental drugs

that reverse brain
degeneration.

Have you got a photo?

Yep. Sending it
to you guys right now.

Hey, the team sent this.

Is this the doctor you met?

Yeah.

Her alias is Rosa Medina,

but her real name
is Nadie Ramos.

Garcia tracked her
to a motel

just outside of town.
Does that sound familiar?

No.

We'll need to take Castenada

and his officers with us.

You want company here?

No, I'm... I'm okay.

CASTENADA: Manager says
he hasn't seen her all day.

If she's left town,
this won't be good for Reid.

OFFICER: (IN BACKGROUND) No puede pasar.

Nadie Ramos, this is the police.
Open the door.

ALVEZ: Damn, she's dead.

This isn't good.

Tres, cuatro, cinco,
seis, siete...

This doesn't look good
for your friend.

Come on. We both know

these things could have
been planted in here

just as the drugs
could have been planted in the trunk.

Framed for drugs.
Framed for murder.

You're not even
considering the obvious?

You wouldn't either
if you knew Spencer Reid.

We've both got
a job to do.

I'll get all this processed.

And we'll continue
to fight

To prove he's innocent.

Reid's stuff was everywhere.

If they run DNA,
he'll be all over this room.

Maybe even on the victim.

The coroner counted
over 25 stab wounds.

There's still no sign
of the knife?

No.

We've got a disorganized
crime scene

with the offender
aware enough

to take the murder
weapon with them.

It doesn't add up.

Unless it was
a drug-induced kill.

The UnSub could have
freaked out

and taken off
with the knife.

Reid told Castenada
he was chasing someone.

It could have been
the killer.

Yeah. Well, if they took
the knife with them,

they could have dumped it
in the desert.

And Reid's got a nasty
cut on his hand.

It could be from
the same blade.

He didn't do this.

I know.

But Scratch is doing
one hell of a job

making it look like
he did.

How are you holding up?

Well, it's been
quite a year, but...

This...

You two are close.

He's my best friend.

Yeah, he's stronger
than anyone knows,

but he is not equipped
to be locked up.

Well, I never thought
I'd say this,

but maybe the drugs
are helping with any anxiety.

Well, I thought the same.

I mean,
I want him to come down,

but then when he's sober,

time's gonna stand still
and that will drive him crazy.

So Monty tracked
Reid's passport.

Turns out he used
his personal

and not his work issued one,

which makes sense,
because he wasn't working,

right? Say right.

Mmm, working or not,
he should have been briefed

before leaving the country
and he wasn't.

So on a scale
of one to terrible?

It's terrible.

The bureau's gonna
hold it against him.

He violated security
protocol.

I mean, as a federal
agent, he's a high-value target.

You know this.
The brass doesn't like it

when you keep them
in the dark.

Why did he keep us
out of this?

I didn't know
he crossed the border once,

let alone three times.

Three times in the last three months?
What was he doing down there?

Lying. He was lying.
Every time he crossed the border,

he lied to us,
and he went all rogue,

and he got himself
in all this damn trouble.

We'll, he was making
decisions

with his heart
and not his head.

Which I'm intimately
familiar with,

but none of this
would have happened

if he would have
let us help.

Well, Penelope, that's what
we're gonna do now. Okay?

Well, I'm still
mad at him.

PRENTISS: We know
you didn't do this.

How did it happen?

She was stabbed,
multiple times.

It looked personal.

We got the results
of your blood work.

There's cocaine and heroin
in your system.

What else?

He was in possession
of cocaine and heroin

when he was arrested.
I found what I need.

No, I need a full
tox screen panel.

We're looking for
scopolamine.

That'll take longer.

I don't care.
I need it.

You were given a speedball.

The opiates block
the dopamine.

That's why thing
go from clear to hazy.

The combination of the drugs

causes a dissociative state
and explains the memory loss.

Are you coming down now?

I think so.

Do you think you could
do a cognitive interview?

I'll try.

Do you have a quiet
room we can use?

Yes. There were five of these

in your bag at the motel.

You recognize them?

I put it in some orange
juice so it won't taste so bad.

What is it?

I'm gonna run it
through the lab.

Whatever's in those vials,
I was giving it to my mom.

That's the only thing
I'm sure of.

So Emily said they're
gonna try a cognitive,

but she isn't
very hopeful.

Did they run
a full tox screen?

No. No, they only looked
for cocaine and heroin

because those were the drugs
in his possession.

And?

And he tested positive
for both.

What?

Well, there's gotta be

some other sedative
present

for him to be missing
so much time.

Look, they're only
gonna investigate what helps their case,

and right now, they have
a dead Mexican citizen

and a drugged up
American suspect.

That's true.
It's not up to the Mexican authorities

to prove what we believe,

which is Reid
is being framed.

They're only looking
at who and what's in front of them.

Okay, but we can't let him
get stuck there.

Then we better hope
they come up with something useful

from this cognitive.

It's a good sign
things are coming back.

Okay, so you remember
landing in Houston,

but you haven't said
how you got across the border.

(TRAFFIC SOUNDS)

REID: I took a bus
to Brownsville.

(BEEPING)

And walked across.

PRENTISS: Is that where
you met Rosa?

The first time.

This trip we met
in a motel.

Because she doesn't
have an office here.

If you'd met Rosa before,

why did you write
her name on your arm?

I don't know.
I don't know.

Well, it's a good
thing you did.

Otherwise we may not
have found her.

Maybe that would have
been a good thing.

Eventually her body
would have been discovered.

When did you first
meet her?

Houston.

I met her at Houston
and at the clinic.

She wrote an article
on Alzheimer's.

And that's why
I came here.

Okay. That's the most
cognizant you've been,

so let's focus on that.

It's time
to close your eyes.

Okay, tell me about her.

She had the vials.

She said that my mom
just needed three drops a day.

And I thanked her.

Then something...
Something went wrong.

She was upset,
and we were at the window.

What was it?
Was someone else there?

Yeah.

Okay, can you see them?

No. No.

The door opened.

(SCREAMING)

They must have
knocked me out,

'cause I don't... I know
that I was on the floor.

I can't... Can't remember.
Can't remember anything.

I can't remember anything.
I can't remember anything.

She...

(SCREAMING)

Rosa's on the floor,
too, though.

And... Someone else
is definitely there.

-Ahhh!
-There's a knife.

There's a knife
and there's a lot of blood.

Who has the knife?

Who is stabbing Rosa?

I don't know.

It's in my hand.

You're trying
to stop the killer.

Mmm-hmm.

I think so.

Reid.

Reid.

Okay. Let's...
Let's take a break, okay?

We need to get you
cleaned up.

(SPEAKING SPANISH)

Guard? We need to change
his bandage, please.

How's he doing?

He's made some
breakthroughs,

but I'm not sure
how helpful they'll be.

What is it?

They just charged Reid
with the murder of Nadie Ramos.

We can't get him
out of here, can we?

I don't know how.

He didn't kill her.

If all I had to go on
was the evidence,

I would swear he did.

But knowing Reid,
hearing the cognitive...

Yes, he said there was another person
in that motel room, but...

PRENTISS: Who has the knife?

Who is stabbing Rosa?

REID: I don't know.

It's in my hand.

You're trying to stop
the killer.

Right now this is just
more evidence against him.

Okay, I am obsessively
refreshing the Mexican prison logs,

and so far Reid
is staying put.

But they could transfer him
to Santa Adaladia

or El Diablo, both of which

make Matamoros
look like a day spa.

Like a who's who
of bad guys.

Crazy rough,
really overcrowded.

There's assaults and murders
on inmates monthly.

He's an American,
accused of murdering a Mexican citizen.

The government is well
within their rights to keep him there.

Well, they could do worse.

They could lock him up
and throw away the key.

Look, the only thing
we know Reid is guilty of

Is getting the vials
for his mother.

Now maybe the drugs
in those vials weren't illegal.

I hate to say it,
but they probably were.

I mean, he couldn't get
whatever it is stateside.

Or let's say it wasn't
an illegal substance,

but whoever planted
the heroin in the trunk...

Put something crazy
in the vials as well.

JJ: Right.

Reid is going to El Diablo
maximum security

by the end of the day.
They just put in the transfer.

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

This is Prentiss.

I'll be right there.

Mom, don't do that!

Don't do that! Stop it!

Leave me alone! Stop!

Stop! Give it back to me!

Oh! Stay away from me!

Oh! Ahhh!

For God's sake,
leave me alone!

Mom! Stop!

Why did you do that?

I hate that stuff
and I hate you!

Do you have any idea
what I went through to get that medicine?

It can't be replaced.
Do you realize that?

Good! I want
to go back home.

-This is home.
-No, it isn't!

I want to go back
to where I was before.

Uh!

(CELL DOOR OPENS)

Reid?

A little good news.

Backup is here.

Hey, Spencer.

Hey.

Thank you for coming.

Yeah, of course.
Jack and me are finishing up a case

in Costa Rica, so we hopped
on a commercial plane to get here.

We're trying to stop
your transfer to El Diablo.

Do you think it's possible?

Yes. Lab reports
on the vials came back.

Some of what was in there
hasn't been approved by the FDA,

but there aren't
any illegal substances.

That's great news.

Is there anything else
you remember about your time here?

I remember what happened
to the vials at home.

My mom threw
most of them out.

So that's why you were
here, to get more.

It must be.

Well, you're
off the hook for that.

There was no contraband
involved.

Yeah, but we were
still looking at the planted drug

and murder charges,
which could keep you here for a long time.

So what can we do
to delay the transfer?

You said that
you met Nadie,

who calls herself
Rosa, in Houston.

Why didn't she just
give you the vials in the US?

I don't know.
I don't know.

But she helped us
and I trusted her.

I was right to.
I still believe that.

Well, she convinced you
to cross the border multiple times.

She had you risk your life.

Because she must
have had something to lose, too.

Like family.

We need to know
more about her.

Well, what was in
those vials?

Yeah.

There are some nootropic
compounds like ampalex,

uh, but also some more
natural stuff...

Coral calcium, jimson weed,

coconut oil, a variety
of vitamins... B12, D3.

Where are we right now?

Matamoros,
northern Mexico.

Jimson weed, otherwise
known as the devil's snare,

originated in Mexico,
but its natural growing region

is further north or south
of the border.

Now, that sounds like you.

CLARA: So it
isn't from here.

Then where'd she get it?

PRENTISS:
Garcia, we've got some questions.

SIMMONS: Hey, Penelope.

Oh, my God.
It's the ducet tones of Matt Simmons.

Are you there
to save the day?

I'm trying.
Clara's here, too.

(SIGHS) Knowing we have
you guys as backup

Is providing me
some much needed hope,

And I work better this way.

CLARA: Hey, lady,
we're trying to catch upon a few things.

Shoot it at me.

Where is Nadie Ramos from?

Mmm, she lives with her family

just north of Matamoros.

That must be where
she got the jimson weed.

What's weird is she crosses
the border like a lot.

Why?

Well, she works
at that clinic in Houston.

She also helps at a local
healthcare center.

I can't find a visa on her,
which is double weird.

And in finishing
the weird trifecta,

there's a social security
number on her W2 form.

Social security?
She's an American citizen?

Yeah. She has dual
citizenship.

She was born in Houston,

and her family had to move
back to Mexico.

She lives with them
and she works in the US.

Well, this changes everything and
we need to talk to the consulate.

It's time for his transfer.

We've had a break
in the case.

The victim
was also American,

and that calls for
extradition.

I've got orders.
Sorry.

(HANDCUFFS LOCKING)

With the victim having
dual citizenship,

We now have concurrent
jurisdiction.

It was my understanding
that the official order

to extradite SSA Spencer Reid
would be evaluated.

I understand. Thank you.

They're taking it
to their brass. Go get him.

(DOOR BUZZES)

Let's go.

Hey, stop!

We just got word that
he's under our jurisdiction.

We'll be taking him
back to the US. Okay?

(SPEAKING SPANISH)

Okay, thanks.

My old unit chief
at BAP Has a call in

to the best legal counsel
the bureau has to offer.

We need a dream team.

That's what we'll get.

Cruz said we need
Reid's work history,

performance reviews,
commendations, and reprimands

if there are any, and we need them
in the next three minutes.

Garcia and I compiled
the list just in case.

Done. It's sent.

All right.
Now we wait.

We're working
on all channels here.

Matt Cruz is on with
the consulate right now.

We could get
an immediate extradition,

but it's just the beginning.

I really screwed up
and I'm so sorry.

It was for
the right reason.

I don't know what happened,

but I know I didn't
kill anyone.

We do, too.

Hey. They approved
the extradition.

Effective immediately.

You'll forgive me
for feeling like justice

isn't exactly being
served with this move.

I understand.

But I can assure you
this has gone to the highest ranks

and there will be
a full investigation.

Thank you
for working with us.

For our reports,
I would like to have

the recording of that
cognitive interview.

I didn't record it.

But that was
our agreement.

I determined he was
still under the influence.

Anything he said wouldn't
have clarified matters.

You're committed agents.

And I've worked
with the IRT before.

I trust you know
what you're doing.

We do. I promise.

(BEEPING)

Thanks for the ride home.

Don't mention it.

Commercial airlines kick
my ass nowadays. You?

Once you've had the best,
it's hard to go back.

I was just thanking
Clara for helping us.

Yeah, and I told her,

when one of us
is in trouble, we all are.

You guys have any other
problems with this,

we happen to know
some people.

Love that.

I can't thank you enough.

Hey, it's all good, man.

I'm just glad you sound
like yourself again.

Me, too.

Okay, so here's the deal
that Cruz made.

We can stop by the BAU
when we land,

but then we'll drive you
into the district

and take you
to the federal jail.

Since you are under
investigation for murder,

these cuffs are going to have to
stay on until you are arraigned,

but you're not
a flight risk up here.

Thank you.

Circulation's
a wonderful thing.

And the moment
there's a chance for outside witnesses,

these go back on.

Have you talked to anyone
about the legal team?

Yeah. Stephen Walker
made some calls

to the BAP To get
the best we can.

The BAP'S a great group.
You'll be in good hands.

Mark my words, kid.
This whole thing's been a nightmare,

but we're gonna
get you out of this.

(TEXT MESSAGE BEEP)

Prints and samples from the crime scene
came back to our home lab.

They've found proof
that backs up your cognitive.

There was a third person
in that room.

You're not
out of the woods,

but I swear
we won't lose you.

Hi.

Oh.

I'm so sorry.

It's only because
there are other people around.

It's okay.

We know you didn't
do anything wrong.

But I should have
told you guys I was going there.

I never... Never imagined
in a million years

it would have
turned out like this.

No one thought that
this could have happened.

Look, you're not in this
alone anymore.

Okay? No secrets.

Deal.

My turn.

Come here, you.

Oh, my God.

Your color's better.

All I had to look at
was that mug shot,

and it had me really worried.

Yeah, we all were.

Glad you're back.

Me, too.

How's my mom doing?

She's fine. You don't
need to worry about her, I promise.

I can't help it.

Trust me. Garcia had meals
delivered to your mom almost every night.

GARCIA: And that nurse
you got is amazing... Cassie.

Cassie, she's great.

JJ: I brought the boys by.
Your mom really loved them.

REID: I bet she did.

Uh, I just got a text.

Reid isn't eligible
for the bureau's legal assistance.

What?

He was never briefed.

And he wasn't in Mexico
on government business.

They won't represent him.

Oh, God.

We're on our own.

JJ: "There are so many
fragile things after all.

"People break so easily,

"and so do dreams and hearts."
