This transcript highlights the role of Penelope Garcia, a technical analyst who serves as the intelligence hub for a criminal investigation team. It showcases her expertise in digital forensics and data mining, as well as the deep emotional bonds and playful camaraderie she shares with her colleagues, particularly Derek Morgan, amidst the high-pressure environment of solving crimes.
Yeah, it's Morgan.
Hello? Garcia, can you hear me?
We saw the explosion on TV.
Yeah, I know. We lost the SWAT agent.
Oh, God.
Don't worry. I don't think you're going to get rid of me that easy.
Do you need anything?
I know who to call if I do. Thanks, baby girl.
Yeah, talk to me, baby girl.
Are you at the crime scene?
Is there like a burgundy settee against one wall?
Um, if a settee is a little couch.
Oh, my Lord.
Yeah, mama, what do you got?
Sarah Danlin's visa was charged an hour ago at the Royal Ruby Inn.
Oh, baby girl, you never disappoint. Thank you.
Baby girl, there's nothing to know.
I hit a couple of buttons. It got stuck. That's it. What do you want?
And?
Okay, I freaked out. A little bit.
Look here, you little busybody.
I know you traced that number from me five minutes ago, so give it up.
Hey, how you feeling, baby girl?
I just can't seem to get my chair adjusted just right again.
But other than that, I'm mortified.
Where is she now?
Baby girl, work your magic and find us an address.
I'm on it.
She's employed at Legal Grind, tech support for law firms.
Carrie's a lawyer. He might have worked on her computer.
He's got no criminal record.
And his social's listed at a bank there.
And the account list's Mike Hicks, 444 Lark Lane, Silver Spring.
Thanks, baby girl.
We should take a closer look at this guy.
It's Garcia.
Yeah, talk to me, baby girl.
I'm not interrupting boy time at Crazy Horse 2, am I?
You know that's not my thing. I'm more for in-room entertainment.
I can't help you there, but I do give good phone.
Let me hear what you got.
Let me call Garcia.
Give it to me.
Hey, baby, can you pull up a map of the crime scene area for me?
Sugar, I could shut down the power grid to the whole city if you told me to.
Yeah, I'm sure you can.
Right now, I just need you to highlight a 10-mile radius around this point.
Track any calls coming in from this area to the tip line.
Coordinate with Prentiss and Reid, would you?
I'm all over it.
Thanks, baby girl.
Hiya, baby.
Hey, baby girl, we need to talk.
PG or NZ-17?
You're on speakerphone.
I charge extra for groups.
We need you to run through crimes similar to the Hale murders in the last two years.
Oh, I already did that. Zip.
And go back even further, Garcia.
Cross-reference against any small towns that have had reports of petty theft
associated with waves of Romani populations entering the area.
Romani?
Gypsies.
As in gypsies, tramps, and thieves?
Exactly.
Oh, bless you all for turning my life into a Cher song.
So what are they doing with these girls?
Yeah, what do you got, baby girl?
Are you sitting down?
You aren't gonna believe this.
What's wrong?
Emily.
No, sorry, baby girl.
What's happening?
He's outside, he's alright.
Are you sure?
Yeah. What's up?
A mystery.
Come on, not today, Garcia.
I know. Here's the deal. When I missed the anti-psychotics...
Listen to me, that was not your fault.
You were ever my champion, sugar, but I believe it was.
Her ballet company handled the fundraiser on Tuesday,
and the same company had contracts with the hotel lounge Bethany Heminger frequented
and the country club Melissa Johnson was a member at.
That's our connection.
JJ, get Rossi and Princess to pick up the owner.
Right away.
Alright, baby girl, talk to me.
I need employee records and a list of venues
that Culpepper contracted out to this weekend.
Oh, sugar, check your email at your inbox 60 seconds ago.
Thanks, Penelope.
Maybe he created others.
Let me call Garcia.
Hey, baby girl, it's me, your own speaker.
Oh, sugar, I don't care who hears it, it's always been you.
Emily.
Are you sure?
Okay, thanks.
Oh.
Hey, baby girl, talk to me.
Of your 76 independent truckers,
I have 28 who are currently involved in custody cases.
You see the lamp?
Hey, baby girl, I need you to run a check on someone for me.
It's who you are, baby girl.
You see the beauty in everything and everyone, no matter where you go.
That part of you is never gonna change, and I won't let it.
I don't need you to protect me.
Tough.
I think I'm gonna stay on the job a little while longer.
How much longer?
Every day of my life.
I kinda love you, Derek Morgan.
Baby girl, it's gonna be okay.
No, no, it's not.
It's bad enough that there's been so much death around me,
but this guy is all up in my turf.
He is really good at what he does for really awful reasons.
That's why you're gonna find the perverts
and watch it happen in that chat room,
and we'll nail them to the wall, and they're gonna give up the unsub.
No, no, that is not good enough.
I wanna watch him suffer. I wanna watch him bleed.
Oh, God, I just scared myself.
Good. That's a good thing.
Hey.
Hey, Beck.
Baby girl, I'm sorry for taking your head off.
Oh, darling, our love is a rock.
No bad day can come between us.
Word.
Come home safe. I'll leave a light on.
You know that place?
It's a former mental institution.
Yeah, on 86 Acres.
Two of the buildings are still in operation.
The rest of the place is abandoned.
Thanks, baby girl.
No, I know.
As soon as Ellie crossed state lines, it became a federal case.
Which is why it's okay that she remain in federal custody.
What are the chances of getting her transferred to Virginia?
Oh, they are quite good.
Because the Federal Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act
defines this as neglect.
It's in her best interest that she be removed immediately.
Well, that's good. That's great.
Baby girl, thank you.
Do me a favor. Tell her to keep her head up, all right?
I will, honey.
Hey, you can do this, baby girl.
Give me your back.
I was just thinking about you.
Baby girl, listen.
We got a laptop here that was owned by the last victim.
I'm gonna hook it up for you over at the model home
so you can work your magic, all right?
What kind of magic?
Well, she was a writer, so maybe she kept a journal.
Maybe she noticed somebody following her
or just felt something weird. I don't know.
So, fishing?
Yep. Fish away.
Baby girl, can you tell me why Greg Finney's laptop
has an employee login screen?
I'm digging.
Did you know that he's been working part-time
as a data entry clerk at the San Diego Register?
If he was in an institution,
he wouldn't have time to find a job.
Uh, he didn't even have to look.
This job is part of his work release program,
and 20 hours of Internet privileges will go a long way.
And since when is Penelope Garcia gonna throw in the towel?
Since exactly now.
Baby girl, listen to me. I know you're upset, so am I.
But what you're trying to do right now
is distance yourself from any more loss,
and I get it. I do the same thing.
I am not some un-men breakdown.
Hey, baby girl.
You need to be needed.
Can you pull outgoing calls from a pay phone?
Is that hypothetical?
Give me the digits.
Let me see. It's, uh, 703-555-0123.
But it feels weird not sharing.
Baby girl,
you don't have to do this.
I know.
Hi, hi, hi.
Hey, baby girl.
I need you to work that magic for me.
Anything, my sweetest.
I just opened up Tammy Bradstone's computer.
I want you to check her e-mails, web searches,
and anyone she may have Skyped.
Okay. Typing at the speed of thought.
Thanks, mama.
So center lock is clean.
As a whistle.
Which reminds me,
you know how to whistle, don't you?
You just put your lips together
and blow.
I love it when you talk old movies.
Later, baby girl.
Hey, baby girl, whatever you're doing, drop it.
Ah, yes, and with pleasure.
Sweetheart, this is the Lamborghini
you are talking to.
You have to drive me.
You can't just leave me parked in the garage
collecting dust, or I will wilt.
Well, please forgive my neglect.
I need you to rev up that fine-tuned
Italian engine of yours, then.
Revving.
Talk to me, mama.
First off, you are under restriction
from my inner Lamborghini.
Garcia.
I mean it.
This high-performance engine may purr
a little bit.
Baby girl, you're on speaker.
I knew that.
Let me call Garcia.
Do you think our unsub did the same thing?
PG at your service.
Don't let the name fool you.
Baby girl, you're on speaker.
Garcia, can you look for grave robberies
in Tornado Alley over the last five years?
Okey-dokey.
Searching.
Oh, this is a shockingly big list.
Who knew?
Holla at your girl.
Need a little information on a local fighter.
Guy named Jimmy Holl.
Jimmy Holl.
Okay.
Oh, he has been hit with some hard knocks.
Hey, baby girl, tell me you got something good.
Hey.
Hey, baby girl, you're on speaker.
Give me the lowdown.
Chocolate Thunder, you can have the whole
kit and caboodle, just say the word.
Well, thanks for that, Reed.
I feel light as a bird already.
What do we got, baby girl?
Thank you, sir.
Just on the case, you don't need me, huh?
Okay, you know what?
I'm gonna chalk that up to a little jet lag.
Let's start this thing over.
Ring, ring, I'm looking for my baby girl.
A wish is my command.
There you go, that's much better.
Don't poor people do relays?
Hey, baby girl.
Hey.
Listen, we need to figure out who ran
in the cross-country relay with Paul Montgomery
and Mark Coleman.
I would just like to say that I love
each and every one of you, even you,
and we love you too, Penelope.
Thank you, now hug me.
Oh, okay.
Does this mean we get drinks every time we come home?
We will discuss it when you hug me.
Too sweet, baby girl.
Cheers.
Hang on a second, I'm gonna put you on speaker.
Go ahead, baby girl, what you got?
Ask and you shall receive.
Hey, baby girl.
Loving you is wrong, baby boy,
I don't want to be right.
Well, likewise, mama.
Well, there's the obvious remedy,
but talking down a nun's hub.
Baby girl, it wasn't stage fright.
When did you get back?
No one told me you got back,
and I've been worried like crazy
because they said you were shot with bullets.
Okay, I'm fine.
I can't believe you were shot with bullets.
I got shot in my bulletproof vest, baby girl,
it's just a couple bruises, I'm okay.
Why don't they make better vests?
That's not bulletproof,
it's like when you fall in the pool
and your watch stops working,
that's water resistant, not waterproof.
I'm worried about Reed.
I am too.
What do you think he's doing?
I think he's taking the time that Hodge gave him.
I get it, he's sad, he should be sad,
but I'm so worried,
and when someone I love is hurting,
it's like I hurt too,
which I know is super codependent,
but it's just how I roll.
And before you ask, yes,
his address has been sent to your phones.
You're the best, baby girl.
Dave, you and Blake take the museum,
the rest of us will take the residence.
Leave it to me good, baby girl.
Unfortunately, all I have are daily coffee receipts
and weekly tie orders.
Laurel didn't get out much.
Go ahead, baby girl, talk to me.
I got a hit on ViCap, three one-offs, actually.
Baby girl,
see if the owner of the convenience store
had any military defensive training.
Oh, I will, as long as you promise to bring me
some of my future mother-in-law's peach cobbler.
As soon as we're done here, I promise.
He's hacking the cars,
that's how he's getting in.
How we doing, baby girl?
We are doing terrible.
We have another one.
Hey, baby girl, take it away, mama.
Sir, this guy is creepy clever.
If I may direct your attention to the GPS.
Maybe it was designed that way.
According to the ME report,
the ecstasy was cut with a high volume of methamphetamine.
Go for greatness.
Hey, baby girl, I need you to run a search
on delayed onset MDMA, methamphetamine mixtures.
See if you can find anything about...
Whoa.
I take that as a yes.
Before he copied the silencer case,
he was in Seattle weeks after they solved the sadist.
Go check your fax machine,
she just sent you that replicated case.
Thanks, baby girl.
Yeah, yeah, okay, I did something right,
I did something right.
Oh, look at that, speak of the devil.
Hey, talk to me, baby girl.
I've been reading these heinous things
that have happened to these women
at the hands of their abusers,
and can I just say thank God
for men like you who are strong
in the eyes of the universe.
Come on, baby girl,
I know you can shut this thing down.
I am trying my hardest, it is no joke.
Hey, break it down, baby girl.
Okay, here we go,
Eddie's story is way more tragic than we thought.
Talk to me, baby girl.
You better get ready to get down on one knee
because this BG boo just earned herself
one hell of a diamond.
What'd you find?
You're not really looking at my projects,
you always look at my projects.
Derek, what's wrong?
We had like this amazing night.
And then cut to four hours later,
she's throwing me an air kiss
and rushing out the door to work
and I'm stuck at two o'clock in the morning
walking her little pug.
Oh, you got Morganed.
Oh, this is as much about his partner
as it is about Galeno.
Yeah, baby girl, send us a last known address
for Galeno's partner, Officer Scott.
Yeah, baby girl, I need you, boo.
Always ready and eager to serve you.
Twice nobody matches the profile.
Hey, baby girl, you got the whole crew, go ahead.
You got a great football team,
state champ two years in a row, go Bulldogs.
Come on, not as amazing as you.
Pretty amazing.
I started with an SQL injection, that's no big deal.
You can download a patch to fight it off,
but it's the patch that contains a Trojan horse.
Like taking a flu shot filled with cancer.
Exactly.
Maybe I can find a clue in the code
to figure out who the culprit is.
Just do that thing that you do, baby girl.
Okay, we have to stop this.
Stop what?
Derek, the FBI is organizing seminars
so what's your next move, baby girl?
I'm not quite sure I know what that means,
but I guess it's kind of sweet.
What's wrong with that?
Not you too.
Okay, baby girl, did you tell him about this?
Did I tell him I wanted him to take charge?
Not really.
Not at all.
Okay, let me let you in on a little secret.
Guys, we don't do well with subtle clues, okay?
You got to be direct, straight up.
Hey, baby girl, what you got, mama?
Props for the federal BI.
Our next generation database is usually a miss,
but today I got a big hit.
Baby girl, what's so special
about this Hunter Cunningham kid?
Here's what's special.
A week after he was admitted to the hospital,
he checked out of the hospital,
but I can't find a death certificate.
It's like he disappeared.
Come on, let's go.
All the way down, all the way up.
Come on.
Let's go.
I'm not your high tech.
Get it.
On your toes, right on your toes.
There you go, baby girl, that's sweet.
Hey, what you got cooking, baby girl?
I have some uber interesting information
about our missing college boy, Trevor Burkett.
Turns out he was president
of the Mecklenburg State chapter
of the Beta Sigma Delta fraternity.
Hey, baby girl,
I need you to work that magic of yours.
Rub my lamp, release the genie.
Our latest victim, Janice Cheswick.
Track her activities as far back as it takes
in days or weeks.
Months if necessary.
Pushing it, Aladdin, but off I go.
That's why I love you.
I've done everything I can think of.
I wrote to the governor on FBI stationary.
I called him three times.
You said you had a hookup with the prosecutor's office.
Baby girl, he pled guilty, forfeiting a trial.
He's talking more about equipment failure now.
Good to know some things go according to plan.
Hopefully the unsub will poke his head up.
Hey, baby girl, what do you got?
What do we know about the source
he was going to see the night he disappeared?
Working and working with
Atlanta PD's Perfectly Lovely IT expert.
Perfectly Lovely is code for
not as good as you, right, baby girl?
Moi, throw shade, never.
Talk to me, baby girl.
You got an address coming my way?
I'm almost there.
The trouble is sometimes she uses her mother's maiden name,
which is yes, and headed upstairs to Tara's bedroom.
How did the unsub know where she lived?
Boom for your boo.
Yeah, baby girl, did Tara's photos
have GPS markings in their electronic footprints?
What are you willing to bet
that those roses had more to do
with guilt than romance?
I am made of cream.
Give me your coffee.
Hey, baby girl, listen, you're on speaker.
After he murdered his father,
he knew the police wouldn't believe him,
so he had to go on the run.
Hey, what you got, baby girl?
All right, thanks, baby girl.
Let me know if you find anything.
Garcia's not having much luck
with the recipient list.
Diamond Bar's a small town.
Thanks, baby girl.
That's nice work, baby girl, good job.
Thank you. Hey, take care of yourself.
Come on, you know me.
Yeah, I do, that's why I'm saying it.
Hey. Hey, baby girl.
Hey, handsome, I was just about to call you.
Ladies first. And a gent, don't forget.
That's right, my bad.
Thanks, baby girl, you're the best.
Garcia's calling.
Hey, baby girl, what's good?
Hooray, heavy breathing.
I was invited, what's the occasion?
I just had a run with JJ.
He's got a shot of the girls
from a video feed across the street
from the library.
Oh, my God.
Baby girl, capture that plate right there.
I already did, searching.
See, who says we can't profile the ones and zeros, huh?
And he's in Baltimore, that's right next door.
And we're gonna get there first.
Nobody does it like you or me, baby girl.
Thank you.
Speak now or forever hold your peace.
Listen, Reed thinks that our unsub may have a mental illness.
Run that against your list of local men with records.
Hey, what you got cooking, baby girl?
Pork roast and espresso beans.
All right, I've intel to share.
Tis why I have called thee.
Talk to me, any progress, baby girl?
Morpheus as a female helps,
but there are over 50 women in the Gulf Coast
that went missing during that time period.
Hey, baby girl,
I need you to look into something for me.
Tell me it's your melted chocolate eyes
because I am so there.
Likewise, but first things first, silly girl.
Hello, G-men and G-woman.
Hey, what up, baby girl?
Okay, I have been doing research
and I think I've found something.
I love you.
Hey, baby girl, listen,
I need you to look at job applications
submitted by rideshare drivers.
That is a tall order,
my favorite flavor of hot chocolate.
We profiled earlier the possibility of a partner.
There could be something to that.
If that's the case,
that person will need to feel as wrong
by the victims as the unsub himself.
Apparent.
Green for go.
Garcia, we think that the unsub
is a potential partner.
I need you to check the neighborhoods
around our crime scenes,
see if any unrelated crimes went down before ours.
Whatever you want, my caramel mocha surprise.
What you got, baby girl?
What I've got is fail, fail, and more fail.
Remember Thomas Elva Edison, Penelope?
I have not failed.
I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.
I'm really glad I wasn't a baby girl.
Really glad.
Is that wrong?
No, no.
You will always be my original baby girl.
Penelope Garcia,
I love you so much.
Call me back at my desk in two minutes.
Whatever you need, baby girl.
This is you. You're on the phone.
Yeah, it's me.
I heard what's going on.
And the pee, because it's been a while
since all of this happened and
you're right there.
It's really you.
It's me.
I got you.
