Paget Brewster: Emily Prentiss

Quotes 

• Kristy Simmons : Emily, there's someone at the door for you.

  Emily Prentiss : [standing and giving Kristy her wine glass]  All right. Hold my beer. I got this.

  Kristy Simmons : How much has she...

  David Rossi : Two glasses, eight donuts.

  Emily Prentiss : [off-screen]  Seven donuts!

• Emily Prentiss : Why are we doing any of this work? Don't you have so many kids at this point that the big ones raise the little ones, like on those reality shows?

  Matt Simmons : How many kids do you think we have?

  Emily Prentiss : [scoffing]  I don't know. Fifteen?

• David Rossi : [seeing Matt trying to put a crib together]  Oh, my.

  Matt Simmons : The holes don't line up.

  David Rossi : And the color really... announces itself.

  Matt Simmons : And don't start. I accidentally ordered red online. It's custom-made, there's absolutely no returns, so I'm pretending to love it.

  David Rossi : Can't you paint it anything else?

  Matt Simmons : I tried that. It's made out of some kind of, like, space-age polymer, and the paint won't even stick. Oh, man. This used to be my office, and now I'm working at the kitchen table. We're holding this together with Scotch tape and bubble gum.

  David Rossi : Looks like we've got our work cut out for us. Where's Prentiss?

  Emily Prentiss : [entering with a bottle of wine]  Oh, I'm here. Ooh. But not to work. I put myself on refreshment duty.

  [seeing Rossi's look] 

  Emily Prentiss : Oh, what? It's my Saturday, too. And donuts are an anytime food, if you've done pilates with your boyfriend, which I have.

• Kristy Simmons : All right, the kids are off to my mom's. How can I help?

  Emily Prentiss : No, you're off-duty. Also, the more you look at this crib, the more you might consider divorce.

  Kristy Simmons : Uh, yeah, I checked the color on the website. It's called "Daddy Issues Red."

  Matt Simmons : I made a mistake, okay?

• Emily Prentiss : [answering a phone call]  Yes, I approved Penelope Garcia's use of the BAU office, as today she's hosting a weekend workshop on...

  [listening] 

  Emily Prentiss : What? How loud is the music?

• David Rossi : So, your old neighbor is suing you, even though you haven't lived next door to him in years?

  Emily Prentiss : I guess. Uh, he's named me and the government as co-defendants in a Fifth Amendment civil rights violation. He says he's being watched.

  David Rossi : Oh, boy.

  Emily Prentiss : Ugh. Brian Garrity. He... I-I think he worked at a fish hatchery. He had a wife who was way out of his league. Oh, and he had a large cat that he would walk on, uh, this leash-type thing.

  David Rossi : And what do you want to do about it?

  Emily Prentiss : I-I... I want to Uber home and, uh, sober up and change my clothes, and then I'm gonna, uh, call him into Quantico. I-I have to diffuse this before it gets worse.

  [seeing his reaction] 

  Emily Prentiss : What? Say it.

  David Rossi : He sounds like a conspiracy theorist, and we need to be careful of how much oxygen we give those types.

  Emily Prentiss : [amused chuckle]  Please, Dave, a little credit. I've talked the guns out of hands of psychopaths. I can handle one kook who hired a lawyer.

• Delivery Man : Emily Prentiss?

  Emily Prentiss : Yes.

  Delivery Man : [giving her an envelope]  You have been served.

  Emily Prentiss : [he turns to leave]  Hey, wait. How'd you find me here?

  [he just laughs]
