[The video shows a thin man wearing bloody clothes is curled up in a fetal position on the lawn. In fact he's in the same place he died.

Keep talking, Reid. Tell me what happened; I'm coming out to find you, okay? Just keep talking and cover up any open wounds before you bleed all over the place.

Shit. Shit, she-...
[She knows what it's like to die, but that doesn't make it any easier to know that he's just been murdered. She's upset. Very upset.]
