Spencer Reid: Hotch told me that when he came to the BAU, you told him he didn’t need a gun to kill somebody?
Jason Gideon: Well, the only truly effective weapon we have is our ability to do the one thing they can’t.

Jason Gideon: Empathize. They dehumanize their victims. We humanize the killers.
Spencer Reid: You’re just saying that to convince me I don’t need to carry a gun.
Jason Gideon: I don’t care if you carry a gun or not. Deadliest weapon we have is a thorough and accurate profile.
Spencer Reid: Of course you believe that.
Jason Gideon: Footpath killer. He had a shotgun to the back of my head. I’m here, he’s not.
