Episode Quotes

Mistakes/Goofs

  • Goof (anachronisms): In one scene, Dr. Reid localizes the unsub through dramatization, using a Phoenix map. The map does not show the west valley segment of the I-10 nor any SR-51 or loop 101 highways. The Southern Pacific Railroad is outlined on the map where the Union Pacific currently is located. This dates the map to approximately 1974.
