“Red Rum” · Season 1, Episode 12

In this episode: Patrick Jane (12), Teresa Lisbon (4), Kimball Cho (4), Wayne Rigsby (3), Grace van Pelt (2)

Man, I thought you were going to have her cast a spell, find the murder weapon.

Oh, spell's already cast.

When did she cast it?

She didn't. I did.

You can cast spells?

Cho, there's no such thing as spells.

I know that.

Witches have the power of telekinesis. She says that she has a spell, which will raise the weapon from wherever it's been concealed, and reveal itself to us.

MMichael

And you believe this evil crap?

Well, you never can tell. We're going to give it a whirl.

Tamzin, the goddess may give you solace and hope and meaning in your life. But she can't protect you from those policemen out there.

Witchcraft creeps me out.

It doesn't bother me. Nerds in cloaks.

There's more to it than that.

It's just a silly alternative lifestyle, like Star Trek or yoga.

I do yoga.

They should wait 10 minutes, then go in.

Why wait?

Let the plot develop, let the fruit ripen, let the yeast rise, etcetera.

MMichael

You don't speak to my son, without my permission.

Oh, well that's a little weird and controlling, but okay. Do you mind if I speak to your son, Mr. Elkins?

Must be tough being Cody Elkins' little brother.

BBrad

No. Well, yeah, sometimes.

Me? I'd hate it. He gets all the attention, the glory, the girls flocking around, for what? For running and jumping and catching a thing?

BBrad

Yeah, monkeys could do that.

Yeah.

BBrad

Monkeys could do it better.

You know, if monkeys played football, they would kick some serious jock butt.

BBrad

Go away.

I can't. I wish I could. It's my job to hound people until I get the truth.

Relax. No such thing as witches.

[to himself] Yeah, it's easy for you to say. Weird witch-lady didn't burn you an effigy and bind you to her power.

Why did you give her my name? She said I was going to kneel before the Lord of Beasts. What does that even mean?

Oh, come on, you're not telling me you believe she's an actual witch?

No, of course not. But, I mean if dark forces did exist, stands to reason that there could be people who control them for their own ends.

They're called investment bankers.

[to Tamzin] Unfortunately it seems that one of your friends helped your magic along with a blunt instrument. In which case, you're as unmagically guilty as they are.

CDCoach Dieter

I chose to resign.

With a promise to take anger management class.

CDCoach Dieter

Forty-six hours worth. Bored the rage right out of me.

[while talking to Cody's parents] I have a question. It's always bothered me. Why do they call it football? People don't really use their feet much, do they?
