Quotes 

• Aaron Hotchner : [talking privately to Morgan about why he faked Prentiss' death]  I know what you've been through. I understand that you're angry, but I hope that you understand that this is not about you or me. This was about saving Emily.

• Aaron Hotchner : Seven months ago, I made a decision that affected this team. As you all know, Emily had lost a lot of blood after her fight with Doyle, but the doctors were able to stabilize her, and she was airlifted from Boston to Bethesda under covert exfiltration. Her identity was strictly need to know. And she stayed there until she was well enough to travel. She was reassigned to Paris, where she was given several identities, none of which we had access to, for her security.

  Penelope Garcia : She's alive?

  Dr. Spencer Reid : But we buried her.

  Aaron Hotchner : As I said, I take full responsibility for the decision. If anyone has any issues, they should be directed toward me.

  Derek Morgan : [angry]  Any issues? Yeah, I got issues.

  [Prentiss appears in the doorway] 

  Penelope Garcia : [near tears]  Oh, my God.
