Rizzoli quotes from Rizzoli & Isles

You okay? Come on, Maura, talk to me. He's a freak. He gets to everybody.

Isles

I didn't -- I did a lot of research into his background; his childhood. Maybe he's not wrong.

What are you talking about?

Isles

Maybe I am a little bit like him.

You are nothing like him.

Isles

I don't -- I don't know, Jane. I was a weird kid.

Were you killing small animals?

Isles

[laughs] No, but I dissected a lot of frogs.

That's different.

Isles

I just started to think about things that I never really thought about before.

Here it comes. There are bodies buried in your basement.

Isles

I spent a lot of time alone. I was adopted, my father was a professor and my mother she -- she came from a wealthy family and was an only child. I just realized something when I was reading about Hoyt. It just never occurred to me before. There was a lot of benign neglect. It's not that they didn't love me. It's just that I didn't ask for much. I don't think I really knew how, and the less that I would ask for the less time that they have for me. They were just very, very involved in their own lives and into each other. They sent me to boarding school when I was ten. I actually think that I sent away for the brochure myself. [smiles with Jane] They were delighted. I was really lost.

Come here. [takes Maura's hand] No matter what happened to you, you are nothing like that monster, okay? You're a little anti-social maybe, goofy, but that's not the same thing.

Isles

[crying] Thank you.

Isles

[examining stomach contents] Bad news: undigested iceberg lettuce.

Oh, I should sit down. That is terrible news.

It is?

No. That's just Maura news.

Isles

Good news: undigested ground beef, but I can't tell what grade it is.

[sarcastically] Yippee! Can you tell what market it came from?

Isles

I'm ignoring you.

Isles

The foremost expert in forensic entomology identified the larva on Dante's shoe.

[looking into a microscope] What am I looking at?

Isles

The Asian Longhorned Beetle. It's an exotic pest. Do you realize what a big break this is?

No. But I didn't spend my life playing with bug larva.

Isles

There has been a recent infestation of the Asian Longhorn

Please don't tell me that they're marching to my apartment.

Isles

They're only found in this one area, Loyalist Park.

Wait, are you saying Dante could have been killed in this park?

Isles

Oh, no. I'm only able to conclusively say that Dante's shoes were in Loyalist Park the night he was murdered.

Okay, you know what? You are officially ridiculous. His shoes didn't go there by themselves. [begins to walk out] Come on, Maura.

[referring to the victim] Who is he?

Korsak

Paul Langford, 34.

Isles

He suffered what appears to be a single gunshot wound to the chest. [leans forward] Oh, that's a shame.

What?

Isles

Quite a bit of intra-abdominal fat. Belly fat. You know, it's linked to high cholesterol, high insulin levels.

I don't think he's worried about his cholesterol level, Maura.

Frost

Blood spatter indicates he was shot inside this van.

This is strange looking blood.

Isles

Do you see why I will only commit to a redish brown stain? This is not blood.

Well what is it then, Dr. Smarty Pants?

Isles

Paint. Yeah. I see flecks of avocado green, Tiffany Blue --

Enough, Picasso.

Tommy was telling the truth: John was painting yesterday morning. If he was doing that he couldn't have possibly been robbing a bank.

Isles

Unlike electrons, human beings can't be in two places at once. Some physical laws of quantum mechanics.

I kind of love that you know that.

Isles

You do? So you don't hate me?

No, I still hate you.

Isles

Okay. I'll work on hating you too.

[finds herself presented with a bottle of wine] But I'm having grilled cheese.

Isles

But it goes with anything. It's a 1994 Château d'Yquem.

Again? I'm so sick of that.

Isles

[laughs] It's sheer perfection. I've only had it once.

Listen, I don't want to stand in the way of a great romance, okay?

Isles

What do you mean?

You and Tommy. I mean, clearly opposites attract.

Isles

It's an evolutionary strategy to ensure healthy reproduction.

Okay, why do you gotta go straight to breeding? All right? With my brother.

Isles

[laughs] Look, I like Tommy. A lot. But I love you, and I hate it when you hate me, so I don't want to do anything to compromise our friendship.

Good, because I hate it when I have to hate you.

[watching Maura inspect the body] Never understood why guys would want to run into burning buildings.

Isles

You …chase murderers.

Not if they’re on fire.

Isles

[smiles] Do you know why firefighters call their outfits ‘bunker gear’?

Their 'outfits'? Yes, because they keep their ‘outfits’ next to their bunks.

Isles

: Darn. [beat] Hey, did you know that the first helmet was developed by luggage maker, Henry Gratacap?

Does your brain ever get tired?

Isles

No, why?

Well just, with all the useless information…[off Maura’s confused look]... No?

Isles

[gestures to the computer screen] The soot buildup on the walls and windows, that’s evidence of a low oxygen fire. But his face shield and lungs say it’s a high oxygen fire….I wrote about this once in the journal of Combustible Science.

Yes. Fabulous article, loved the photos.

Isles

[delighted look] I’ll print it out for you.

M-Maura, look, why waste paper? I’ll read it online.

Isles

[stops smiling] You’re not gonna read it.

: No, probably not.

Isles

[excited again] But, you are going to dinner with Gabriel.

How did you know I was going to dinner?

Isles

You brushed your teeth.

I…I always…..brush my teeth. [beat] At work. Sometimes.

Isles

I have a reservation at the Ivory Table. I could call, make it for four, we could double date?

Really? Why, who’s your date?

Isles

My mother.

Ah, so you, me, Gabriel...and your mother.

Isles

mhm.

How could I say no?

Isles

[turns around and glares at Jane] You’re being sarcastic aren’t you?

Very. If it was anyone but you I’d say it was the creepiest idea ever.
