Viper : Your turn.
Emily Prentiss : No.
Viper : You scared I might be right?
Emily Prentiss : No, Paul. I'm baffled. I cannot figure out what the unsub could have learned from you.
Viper : What do you mean? He took my look, my words, everything that makes me successful with the opposite sex.
Jordan Todd : Really? Because that guy could get beautiful women into his apartment. I wouldn't let you on my Facebook page.
Emily Prentiss : Oh, you're on Facebook?
Jordan Todd : Yeah, you should friend me.
Emily Prentiss : I will.
Viper : Hey, hey, hey! I gave him the routines that made him what he is.
Emily Prentiss : It must all be in the salesmanship then.
Jordan Todd : Because we've been watching all the women in the club...
Emily Prentiss : ...and not one of them has looked at you. So who do you really go home with, Paul? Or... or do you go home alone?

Emily Prentiss : Jordan, this is Viper, God's gift to women.
Jordan Todd : Wow, God sure has a sense of humor.

Dr. Spencer Reid : One classic routine the Viper promotes is called the "push-pull." He'll insert himself between two women and, immediately after complimenting one, he'll deliver a subtle insult and then pay attention to the other.
[to Jordan]
Dr. Spencer Reid : Those are... they're really nice earrings. I like those.
Jordan Todd : [flattered and embarrassed] Thanks.
Dr. Spencer Reid : My grandmother wears a lot of fake jewelry also. Looks nice.
[the others laugh]
Dr. Spencer Reid : Ignoring the one woman puts her in direct competition with her friend and causes the other to pursue you more aggressively.
[to Jordan]
Dr. Spencer Reid : I was just demonstrating, sorry.

Jordan Todd : So how bad did I just screw up?
Derek Morgan : On a normal scale of 1 to 10, I'd say a 6. But on Hotch's scale... an 11!

Viper : You see, eye contact is a very powerful gauge. That's why you tend to look away from someone you're attracted to because you know, instinctively, what a dead giveaway it is. But your brain goes there anyway: images, fantasies.
Jordan Todd : Don't flatter yourself.
Viper : The eyes don't lie. They dilate. It's a chemical response we can't control.
Emily Prentiss : Okay, 15 seconds.
Jordan Todd : What do you see?
Emily Prentiss : No, no change. No dilation.
Jordan Todd : I guess chemically we're not a match.
Viper : Only because you have someone else on the mind. Once that happens, the attraction center in the brain shuts down.
