Angela Rizzoli quotes from Rizzoli & Isles

What the hell, Ma! Where's Pa and the Callernos?

Angela

They went to go pick up ice cream for later!

[looks closely at her mother's face and is shocked to see she's lying] No, they didn't! There's no one else here?!

Angela

I made Ragu bolognese.

You made me wear this dress for Joe Grant?!

Angela

What?! No! I don't know what you're talking about!

Ma!

Angela

I need to know you're taken care of.

By him?! Are you kidding??

Angela

He's cute!

He's not cute!

Angela

He's very cute!

So what?!

Angela

So, you know, I never told you, but I'd be really good at solving cases.

Isles

Well, the forensic sciences can be quite complicated.

Angela

A little common sense goes a long way. I read so many crime novels and always know who did it.

Thank you, Agatha Christie. Stay in the car.

Angela

I won't embarrass you!

Thirty years of experience says otherwise.

Maura

You shouldn't be here. Not while they're investigating.

Jane

Why? What did you say to Connors?

Maura

Well, you know I can't say anything.

Jane

Ma, get your stuff.

Angela

Jane Clementine Rizzoli.

Maura

Your middle name is Clementine?

Jane

[to her mother] Thank you. Thank you very much.

Angela

Remember when you thought you and Becky Zisti were never gonna be friends again?

Jane

Yeah, well, I didn't shoot Becky Zisti's father.

Angela

Here, do you want some tea? It gets its flavor from pandas!

Jane

How does it get its flavor from pandas?

Angela

Maura says that the pandas fertilize the tea plants.

Jane

That means they grow in panda poop, Ma.

Angela

I'm not talking to you until you say three good things!

Jane

Okay! Okay! I, uh, found all of the lids to my Tupperware, I--don't have leprosy, and my wonderful mother left the comfort of her free guest house to come stay with me in my crappy little apartment because she loves me.

Angela

[smiling] Yes, she does.

Jane

And this is where you say, "It's not a crappy little apartment."

Angela

[makes a face and shakes her head no]

Jane

Ma.

Angela

Uh-uh.

Angela

[to Jane and Maura] Ugh. Why couldn't you two do something else for a living?

Jane

I thought about being a ballerina.

Angela

Yes, you did, and you were so good at the Foité.

Jane

[looks away, wistful] And then I wanted to be a goalie in the NHL.
