"So he runs out into the middle of the street, blocking our shot and talks him down. I thought Emily was going to murder him on the plane that night. I've never heard her use so many curses in my life."
Ryan looks at Spencer. "Why?"
"Why did I do it? He deserved a chance." Spencer said, shrugging.
"Yeah, and if you hadn't talked him down, then what? It was the one time the boy got lucky. Seriously, he's a magnet for danger." Morgan said, sitting up a little more.
Spencer rolled his eyes. "No I'm not."
"Really? So you didn't almost get shot already?" Ryan said and messed up his hair.
"That wasn't me!"
Morgan laughed. "I guess you passed all your bad juju to me, kid."
Spencer looked at his hands. "I'm sorry that-"
"Whoa, hey. No, kid. I was just kidding. This had nothing to do with you. Even if you were there, you couldn't have done anything. Plus, you were with this beautiful woman, so I can forgive you." Morgan winked at Ryan who laughed.
"You sure are a flirt, Derek."
Derek grinned. "You haven't even seen my game yet."
"And she won't." Spencer said and Ryan chuckled and kissed the man's cheek.
Morgan laughed at the man. "I'm just messing with you, Pretty Boy."
"So when do you get out of here, Derek?"
"This afternoon or tomorrow, thank God. I've been in here way too long."
"At least you got jello."
"Yeah right. You've stolen all my jello for the last four days, Reid."
"You stole mine first!"
Ryan shook her head. "Boys. If you can't behave, I'm going to have to take Reid back home."
Morgan chuckled. "I like this girl. She's feisty. You and Pen'd get along great."
"Are you talking about me again, Derek?" Garcia said, carrying her god son, JJ following.
Spencer got up and grabbed the little boy out of his arms. "Daddy!"
"What did he say?" Morgan asked, looking perplexed.
Henry looked at Derek. "Oops. Mommy say I can't say that! Derr, you can't know that Spenner my daddy. Don't tell okay?"
Spencer looked back at Derek who was looking back between JJ and Spencer before at the little boy. "No problem, Little man."
Garcia looked between everyone before scooping up the little boy. "How about you come with me and Ms. Ryan to get some ice cream, buddy?"
"Yeah! Ice cream!"
JJ waited until the two women and little boy had left.
"Derek.."
"Tell me that Morphine causes delusions, because I'm...tripping."
"Ahh. Delusions or hallucinations are not a side effect, but someone on morphine can have really weird dreams. That's what this is. You're experi-"
"Spence."
Spencer looked at his shoes.
"Spencer's Henry's biological father. Will knows. We're working on it. Spencer and I are just friends now and everything is fine. Nothing has changed."
Morgan looked in between the two. "Sure. Nothing's changed. Uh huh. That's why you're totally against Ryan."
JJ rolled her eyes. "I am not."
"You did call her a skank." Spencer said, looking at her. JJ flushed.
"I...Well, I did. Yes, but I was, it was a bad...can we get back on point?" She said, rubbing her temples.
Morgan chuckled a little. "Wow, you two... together. What kind of profilers are we that we couldn't spot that."
Spencer shrugged. "Bad ones, I guess."
Morgan laughed. "You have a , I didn't think... I knew that kid was too smart! No wonder, he's got genius DNA."
JJ gave him a look. "I'm not a complete idiot, Morgan."
"Yeah, but..." Morgan frowned. "...Jello?"
Henry poked his head in. "Mommy, guess what?"
JJ turned and looked at the little boy, waving the other two women in as well. Henry let himself in and went to Spenner. "Ms. Ryan and I like the same ice cream! And, and she said I could have two!"
Ryan looked at the boy's parents, who were looking at her, as she sucked on her little plastic spoon that came with the cups of ice cream. "What? He gave me the Reid pout!"
"Penny say than Ryan cant resist me. Whats that mean, Da-Spenner?"
"Means she can't say no to you."
"I'm unresisting."
"Irresistible." Spencer corrected.
"Yeah, that." Henry said with a nod. "I'm irresisable."
Garcia awwed as Morgan laughed. "He's got a way with the ladies... Are you sure he's Reid's?"

Spencer watched Ryan as she watched the tv. She glanced at him. "What?"
Spencer blinked, "What?"
Ryan smirked a little. "You were staring."
He flushed a little. "Sorry, I was... just thinking."
Ryan sat up and looked at him. "What are you thinking about?"
"I like being here."
Ryan rested her head on her hands. "Well, it was your home for 10 years."
"I want to be with my son."
"Well that's natural, Spence. He's your son. He's adorable too, by the way."
Spencer smiled a little. "He's irresistible or iresisable as he says."
"Must have got that from you."
'Spencer chuckled. "You're very endearing."
She grabbed his shirt and pulled him towards her. She kissed him and he responded, pushing her back against the mattress.
Ryan pulled back and looked at him."What are you going to do?"
"I could quit. Move back here."
Ryan pushed him back. "Whoa, whoa. Move back here, what about our team?"
"My son is more important than a job. My family is more important."
"We could be your family too if you'd give us a shot, Spencer. You're so focused on Morgan and Emily and...JJ."
"They're the first people who ever gave me that sense of family. You wouldn't understand, you had-"
"Oh stop with the 'I didn't have a childhood because I'm a genius' act, Spencer. I'm not saying you should give them up. I'm saying that you should give some other people a chance to be there for you as well. Now be a grown up and a father and do the job and stop bitching."
Spencer glared at her. "And how am I supposed to be a father in Las Vegas when my son is in Quantico?"
Ryan breathed out through her nose. "I don't know. You're the genius."
"I can't think of a way that..."
"People do it all the time. He can stay with you for a week or two and then with JJ. Just figure it out with her."
"And when he goes to school?"
"Home school him. You can teach him."
Spencer paused. "...He wouldn't have to deal with the ridicule that..."
Ryan kissed him. "See, I'm smart."
"You are smart...but..."
Ryan kissed him again. "Shut up. Think about it. We... We need you too, Spencer."
