Kimball Cho quotes from The Mentalist

CBI! CBI! Like that's supposed to mean something!

Cho

Yeah, we do need better brand awareness.

Rigsby

I hate the woods.

Cho

Would you rather be playing desk jockey with Van Pelt right now?

Rigsby

Who sends their kids to a place like this? It's not cheap either.

Cho

A little deprivation and discipline is good for the soul.

Rigsby

Yeah, but this is like a juvie prison camp.

Cho

No. This is like spring break in Cancun compared to juvie.

Rigsby

Wait, you were in juvenile hall? Seriously?

Cho

Yeah, didn't you read my file?

Rigsby

No. Wait, did you read mine?

Cho

Of course.

Cho

Yeah, the door was open.

Rigsby

Uh, no, it wasn't.

Jane

AHA! Of course.

Cho

What?

Jane

Rigsby, you're right. You shouldn't be here. Let us take this. You go find the nearest library.

Rigsby

Why?

Jane

Your punishment for being a wuss is I'm not gonna tell you.

Rigsby

Oh, come on.

Jane

Nope, I'm not gonna tell you.

Lisbon

You're leaving?

Jane

Well, frankly if I can't use this job to seek some kind of personal revenge then, uh, there's not a whole lot here for me. I don't make anything better. I can't bring dead people back to life. What good do we do? We drive around California visiting unhappy people.

Grace

We're fighting evil and injustice.

Jane

And how's that going? Any progress lately?

Cho

We put bad guys away where they can't hurt people. That's good enough.

Jane

Nah. I was doing more good as a psychic. I was giving people hope at least. False hope, but hope anyway.

Lisbon

You're right. Best you leave. That way you can go back to being a full-time fraud and we can continue our useless jobs in peace.

Jane

[Lying on the couch] Wow. There's a stain on the ceiling that looks like Elvis, but today it looks more like a basset hound.

Cho

[Dry] Someone call the media, it's a miracle.

Rigsby

You have any plans for tonight?

Grace

Home. TV.

Rigsby

Well...have fun.

Grace

You too. [Leaves the room]

Cho

[to Rigsby] You're gonna die alone.

Rigsby

[On entering the lawyer's office] Jimmy marks on the door knob.

Cho

I doubt that was part of the original décor.

Cho

Talked to Van Pelt recently?

Rigsby

Yep.

Cho

Any progress?

Rigsby

Nope.

Rigsby

There's a man there. I think she's, you know...

Cho

Banging a homeless guy.

Rigsby

No! A volunteer. A chef. And she's not — I don't know.. not yet... maybe... I think... I don't... no.

Cho

Dude, you need counseling.

Cho

You got something, Jane?

Jane

Uh, yes, I do, uh, he's naked.

Cho

Let me write that down.

Cho

Where are you going?

Jane

Baseball academy I was thinking. Don't we have the Silvas thing?

Lisbon

Rigsby and Van Pelt are talking to the theater manager now.

Jane

Why? No, no. Wasn't her. Murder weapon was a baseball bat. Baseball bat. Baseball academy. Common sense.

Lisbon

Do you know who the killer is?

Jane

What do you think?

Lisbon

I think you said 'what do you think?' to make me think you do so I'll go with you, but really you don't.

Jane

[chuckles] Cho?

Cho

Baseball bat. Baseball academy. That's not common sense.

Jane

Great. We'll all go.

Jane

I've never caught a foul ball before.

Lisbon

Technically, you still haven't. Cho, you take him.

Cho

Yeah.

Jane

Oh, no, no, no, no. I'm fine.

Cho

How many fingers?

Jane

Six. Haven't we got a murder to solve?

Lisbon

You were unconscious.

Jane

No, I wasn't.

Cho

Jane, you were.

Jane

Was not. [at Lisbon] Your turn. Okay, I'll see a doctor. [Shouting at crime scene doctor] Uh, excuse me, doctor?

Mmm?

Jane

I know, a real, live patient. I'm excited, too.

Jane

Well, it's a big secret, well kept.

Rigsby

Maybe you knew, but nobody else did.

Cho

I knew. Half the building knows.

Rigsby

They do not!

Cho

Yes they do.

Jane

The only person who didn't know is glaring at you right now.

Lisbon

And now I have to do something about it.

Cho

What are you gonna do?

Jane

Yeah, what are you gonna do?

Lisbon

Thinking.

Jane

Who is this "KS," by the way?

Cho

Gang leader. Bad guy.

Jane

What did you do to make him mad?

Cho

I shot him.

Jane

That'll do it.

Lisbon

Hey, Van Pelt. I need you to do background checks on Cliff Edmunds, Lilith Nash, Griffin Lattimer Welks, Julian Eric Tripp. I'm sending you their details now.

Rigsby

Anything we should be looking out for in particular?

Lisbon

Oh. One of them released a lethal super-virus that could kill half the state of California, so I guess we're looking for someone with a prior background of an evil supervillian.

Cho

Okay.

Lisbon

That last part was a joke.
