Tracy Middendorf: Lyla Bradstone

Quotes 

• [Lyla is explaining her history with Cy in high school] 

  Lyla Bradstone : I didn't know what to do. My friends laughed, but... I didn't want to be mean, so I went in the closet with him.

  Derek Morgan : And what happened next?

  Lyla Bradstone : I let him feel me up.

  Emily Prentiss : How did he behave after that?

  Lyla Bradstone : He started following me around at school. Then one day, he overheard me tell a friend how gross I thought he was.

  Derek Morgan : How he talked, how he smelled.

  Matt Bradstone : [Lyla nods]  Why didn't you tell me this?

  Lyla Bradstone : I was sixteen. We had just started dating.

  Emily Prentiss : Does Cy know about your recent marital problems?

  Matt Bradstone : Yeah. I... I told him a couple of months ago.

  Derek Morgan : [to Lyla]  And then he probably started making advances towards you which you had to reject.

  Emily Prentiss : That's what triggered the killings.

  Lyla Bradstone : [crying]  I did this?

  Derek Morgan : No. No, ma'am. The events did.

• Cy Bradstone : [recording himself and scene]  And this is where my brother lives now!

  [chuckles] 

  Matt Bradstone : [happy]  There you are, Cy!

  Lyla Bradstone : I got you clothes. Bought you some shampoo and toothpaste.

  [Matt goes to hug his brother] 

  Cy Bradstone : [films self]  See? We're the perfect American story!

  Cy Bradstone : Yeah, yeah, yeah, ok. Turn that thing off an' come on in. Come on.

  Cy Bradstone : [Cy grins and it fades as he watches his brother and wife go in the house]  Every story has a beginning.

  [sinister] 

  Cy Bradstone : But the part I like best is the end.
