Yeah, well, it's not always so easy to be open about money.
I always tell women exactly how much money I have in the bank on the first date.
(Ria stares at him.)
SSylvia
And you wonder why you never get a second.

(When told that Jason's girlfriend loves his money as much as she loves him.)
JKJason Kashani
But she lied to me.
Well, why are you in love with Nadia? She's charming, she's intelligent, and, oh, wait for it, she's beautiful. How is her beauty any different from your money?
JKJason Kashani
I don't know.
Exactly. Just be honest with her.
And yourself. (pauses) And get a pre-nup.
Why do people always think they're the only one with a secret?
Human nature, I suppose.
(sits down and sighs) If the mayor had told the truth... or Blunt had been honest about his illness, none of this would've happened. If the lies... hadn't come together.
They always do.
(Cal and Ria walk into Cal's office to find a woman sitting at Cal's desk holding a ceremonial mask over her face. She removes it to reveal her face.)
Good morning.
Could you put that down?
What, you don't like women in masks anymore?
(Zoe is playfully holding the mask by her fingertips and playing with it.)
Wha-- No-- 'Cause it's one-of-a-kind. Yeah, could you put that down? Never mind. (throws up his hands in surrender and looks away from her)
I do so like it when you get flustered. It's rare, but highly enjoyable.
Why are you here?
You have such a gift for small talk. Really you should have just gone into the hospitality business, opened yourself up a bed-and-breakfast somewhere.
(Zoe looks from Ria to Cal and back again.)
(talking to Cal, but looking at Ria) You always did like them so young.
Cal Lightman & :Ria Torres: (at the same time) Excuse me?
(talking to Ria) His proteges. They're usually young. It's easier for him to try to mold in his... image.
You want to hire me?
Well, I don't want to remarry you! (Cal looks at her in astonishment) Why, do you have a problem working for your ex-wife?
(Cal huffs out a breath, but doesn't say anything.)
My place or yours?
Mine. I want Foster to evaluate AJ.
(with a sigh and a brittle smile) Ah, yes, Gillian.
(looking at her closely) What was that?
I didn't say anything.
(Cal leans even closer to look at her.)
What? Let's talk to the accused. And get you some medication.
(Cal puts up pictures of an emotion on the screen)
Contempt.
Yeah, that's right.
I'm familiar with that one.
(She smiles blandly at Cal, who just looks back at her without saying a word.)
(Gillian walks over to shake Zoe's hand.)
Zoe.
Gillian.
(Zoe grunts and Gillian grunts back.)
(talking to Cal) Can I talk to you?
She's calling.
(Gillian turns to give Zoe a look.)
Cal?
Do you not remember what it was like after she left? When you wore the same shirt to the office every day for a month.
I still do!
(Cal and Gillian walk into the rest room together.)
I'll be fine.
Cal.
I'm in completely control of myself, which is more than I can say for you following me into the men's room.
(A female exits a stall, looks at Cal and leaves the rest room.)
(smiling because she made her point) The women's room, Cal. The women's room.
(Cal looks stunned.)
No, you're going to have to learn to lie better than that if you want a real career in front of the camera.
(talking to Cal) They can't both be telling the truth. What, are you losing your touch?
(talking to an empty chair) Shh, I told you, quiet now.
AAJ
Who are you talking to?
That's Penelope. (talking to an empty chair) Quiet. I told you, be quiet.
(Cal knocks the empty chair over from under the table where AJ can't see.)
AAJ
You did that!
(Cal picks up the chair and sets it right.)
Eh?
AAJ
You did that.
Penelope did that.
AAJ
You're making that up.
Now, that's not fair. (pointing to the empty chair) She thinks you're cool.
AAJ
There's no one there.
She told me that she thought you were super cool.
(Cal and Aj look at each other)
AAJ
You're weird.
