 * Consummate Liar: Put her in a diner with her co-workers and she'll stammer like she's in an exam and hasn't studied. Put her in front of an unsub and she'll play him or her like a harp with laments of how lonely and traumatized (and, in one case, fat) she is. Played with, though; given her background and the way she behaves, it doesn't seem like all of her weeping about being lonely is lies...
