ADD TRIVIA-
According to Garcia's research, Randall Garner stayed in the Bennington Sanitarium from 1996 to 2001, so he could not have known about JJ's secret when she joined the team only in 2005. It was never established that Garner visited Diana Reid after he left the facility.
-
Early in the episode when Garcia is telling Morgan what happened to the Garners, she says, "both Garner boys." Later in the episode when Reid is speaking to Randall Garner, Garner says "and my son."
-
In the first part of this two-parter, Morgan is seen on the beach without a shirt on. He has intricate tattoos on both his shoulders, but nothing on his back. In the second part of the two-parter, which picks up moments after the first part ends, a tattoo is clearly visible above the collar of his tee shirt at the back of his neck when he is speaking to the detective in front of the Bryant family house.
-
It is revealed in this episode that Elle's father had been a New York City police officer who was killed in the line of duty when she was eight years old.

Quotes
ADD QUOTES-
Morgan: Detective, I've seen kids missing for a decade and their rooms look exactly the way they did the day that they left. Parents don't just pack up their kids stuff and put them in boxes in the garage. Parents don't give up, ever. What the hell is going on here?
-
Reid: People tell me their secrets all the time. I think it's because they know I don't have anyone to betray them to. Except my mother. I tell her pretty much everything.
-
Diana Reid: You know I'm terrified of flying.
Reid: I know, mom, I'm sorry.
Diana Reid: Then why did you have those fascists arrest me?
Reid: Mom, they're not fascists and you were not arrested. I'm trying to protect you.
Diana Reid: By forcing me to do the one thing that frightens me more than anything else? -
Randall Garner: If you want the grail, you must ask the question.
Reid: She's not a grail. She's your daughter. Her name's Rebecca.
Randall Garner: My daughters died in a fire and my son and my wife.
Reid: Rebecca lived.
Randall Garner: No. Your mother, she explained it all to me.
Reid: My mother is a paranoid schizophrenic who'd forget to eat if she wasn't properly medicated and supervised.
Randall Garner: She made me realize none of it was real. I didn't lose Rebecca. She... she never existed in the first place. -
Reid: Mom, we found her. Rebecca's safe. You helped us save her life.

Reid: What?

Randall Garner: Ask the question, I'll be healed and you may take the grail. Just ask the question, Sir Knight.
Reid: I can't.
Randall Garner: Heal me.
Reid: Mr. Garner, a fisher king wound cannot be healed by somebody else. It's... it's not a wound of the body. It's a wound of the memory, a wound of the mind. It's... it's a wound that only you can find, and a wound that only you can heal.
Randall Garner: Just ask the question.
Reid: There's only one question that matters, Mr. Garner. There's only one really important question. Can you forgive yourself? -
Hotchner: What the hell was that?
Reid: He had a bomb.
Morgan: You didn't think we needed to know that?
Reid: I told you to go downstairs.
Morgan: Well, you didn't say "bomb." You left that part out. -
Hotchner: (discussing the unsub) He's delusional. He thinks he's a mythological king.
Gideon: But delusion and this level of organization are almost mutually exclusive. -
Reid: It's never night in Las Vegas.
Garcia: Excuse me? -
Reid: (discussing a Chaucer poem) Fowles! Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! Chaucer! My... my mom use to read me that. It's widely considered as the first valentine's poem

Reid: "It has been said that time heals all wounds. I do not agree. The wounds remain. In time, the mind, protecting its sanity, covers them with scar tissue and the pain lessens, but it is never gone." Rose Kennedy
-
Gideon: "The defects and faults of the mind are like wounds in the body; after all imaginable care has been taken to heal them up, still there will be a scar left behind." French writer François de la Rochefoucauld

Allusions
ADD ALLUSIONS-
Randall Garner continually tells Reid to "Ask the question" so that he may be healed. According to Arthurian legend, Percival was to ask the Fisher King "Whom does the grail serve?" This was to lead the Fisher King to a realization of his own unworthiness, and thereby heal his wounds and allow him to receive redemption. Percival - Reid - never asks this question.
