"Criminal Minds" Profiler, Profiled (TV Episode 2006) - Mandy Patinkin as Jason Gideon

Jason Gideon : [about Det. Gordinksi suspecting Morgan is a serial killer] We're dealing with a desperate detective here. Three dead boys, no evidence at all. So he applies a profile directly to someone he already suspected. It's easy to get tunnel vision that way.

Dr. Spencer Reid : One begins to twist facts to suit theories instead of instead of theories to suit facts. It's one of Sherlock Holmes' favorite quotes.
Det. Stan Gordinski : Agent Gideon, right?

Jason Gideon : Yes

Det. Stan Gordinski : I owe you a big thank you! I had no suspects at all until you looked over my case for me and sent me this profile. Everything in it points to that son of bitch, Derek Morgan

[hands over profile]

Jason Gideon : [browses through dossier] I profiled him?

Det. Stan Gordinski : It's all right there

Dr. Spencer Reid : Detective, a profile is just a guide

Det. Stan Gordinski : This one guided me to him

Emily Prentiss : They're really more useful in the elimination of suspects rather than the inclusion

Det. Stan Gordinski : That's not the way you presented it to me

Jason Gideon : If I confused you, I'm sorry

Det. Stan Gordinski : Ah, I'm not confused at all

Jason Gideon : Look, whatever it is in here that made you consider agent Morgan a suspect, has to be coincidence. You cannot rely solely on this

Det. Stan Gordinski : You're right, I'm not
