“Red Hair and Silver Tape” · Season 1, Episode 2

In this episode: Patrick Jane (9), Teresa Lisbon (4), Kimball Cho (2), Grace van Pelt (1)

If it wasn't him, then who was it? And if you say a man who likes red hair and silver duct tape, I'll scream.

I don't want you to scream.

I made a booking for two for this afternoon. Could you put us on the terrace? It's more romantic. Thanks... Yeah, Patrick... Lovely. See you then. [To Lisbon] Don't fret, I wouldn't seduce you over a meal. That'd be very sophomoric.

I didn't think you were trying to seduce me.

Come on, how could that thought not have entered your head?

[Lisbon stares speechlessly at Jane]

Your denial that it did intrigues me.

Bite me.

[Talking about Raquel]

That was funny, the way she gave him up so easily like that?

Yeah, it was. But you were right, huh? Secret lover. Guess I was wrong about the whole red-hair-and-duct-tape thing.

You hypnotized her, didn't you?

I certainly did not. [Lisbon just stares at him] Okay, no. Yes, I did hypnotize her, but--

But nothing. It's unprofessional and it's illegal. It's totally out of bounds.

That's what I told him.

I was gonna say you had nothing to do with it, but hey.

[Cho]if you allow him to pull that stuff again, and you'll be showing visitors around the statehouse in a stupid hat.

[staring into Raquel's eyes]

Raquel, look at me. Before you fall asleep tonight while you're lying in your bed relaxing and slowly drifting off into sleep... I want you to think of me. Think of me and imagine that you can fly. Imagine that you're weightless. You can float gently into the air if you want to. Safe, and calm, and serene. You can fly away and leave all your burdens and worries and fears behind you. [pauses] Imagine that. What a nice feeling it is. Next time you see me, [taps Raquel gently on the knee] when I say hello you'll remember that good feeling and you will want to tell me the truth. Because when you do tell the truth, you feel that a heavy weight has been lifted from your shoulders. I'll say hello and you will feel as light as a feather... as if you are floating on air. [leans back with a smile on face] Why don't you sit here a moment and think about that before you go back to work?

RRaquel

Whatever. [turns to Cho] Your friend's crazy. Can I go now?

Yes.

[looking at Cho] It worked on the chicken.

[After Jane's plan to lure in the suspect has gone awry]

Everything's funny.

Well, if you try. I mean, come on. That was pretty funny. Strange though. I was sure the Chef would bite. I mean, there's still a chance he could show up.

The chef? Malcolm? Why do you think it's him?

He uses way too much butter.

Say--?

He's a gluttonous baby. He's self indulgent. He wants what he wants and takes it.

Too much butter.

Yeah.

It's fascinating, the way your mind works.

I've a daughter that would be about your age if I hadn't caused her death... her and her mother.

FOFrankie O'Keefe

How?

Out of arrogance... stupidity. I made an evil man very angry and he killed them to teach me a lesson. To make me sorry for what I've done... and I am sorry. Being sorry is far worse punishment than being dead, everybody dies... very few people ever feel truly sorry for the bad things they've done.

No such thing as psychic powers.

SMSheriff McAllister

So what is it you do exactly?

You know rock paper scissors?

SMSheriff McAllister

I do.

Play me. On three; one, two, three.

[Jane wins six consecutive games]

I don't get it. She actually enjoyed helping him kill. One crazy, evil person I understand, but two? Husband and wife? Marriage is suppose to be a sacred, loving thing.

Yeah, they were soulmates in their strange own way.

[talking about the relationship between Melanie and Hector]

HRHector Ramirez

What we had... was special.

You made her feel like a captured princess instead of a small town choir nerd. And she made you feel like a dashing pirate instead of what you are... sort of a bad-tempered pharmacist.
