[to Arlov] Most successful criminal bosses show a similar profile. Sadistic, violent, but also highly methodical, they're psychologically astute.
AArlov
Are you mad?
No, just kidding. It's just a prop to get me into the room. I am aware that you have the real painting.
AArlov
Really? You are aware, and how are you aware of this?
I guessed. Confirmed by the predatory smile on your face when you asked me about it just then. You enjoy trapping people in nets of their own making, don't you?
Is that an M-16 or a Kalashnikov?
AAP
[to Kathryn] Son of a bitch. There's a machine gun in my painting. How in the hell could you not notice that?
AAP
[talking about the painting] $50,000,000, right there.
It's about $10,000 right there. It's a fake.
AAP
The hell it is.
Fake as a $6 bill.
[talking about the painting] May I borrow it for a while?
RRob
I don't know about that. How do I know I'm going to get it back?
Let me put it another way. Lend it to me, or Agent Van Pelt here will take you and the painting back to Sacramento and keep you there and ask you mind-numbing questions for hours on end.
[talking about Harry] What was his previous employment?
He was a musician. Jazz guitarist.
SStevie
Yes. How did you know that?
I looked at his fingers. Guitarist fingers. Jazz with a flamenco edge, judging by the ridge on his thumb.
FFrank
[about Jane] Who is this guy?
He's a pain in the ass, but he's making sense.
If we're lucky, we'll find a murder weapon. It was obviously a well-planned robbery.
Why is that obvious?
Nobody finds themselves in a locked room full of old masters in the middle of the night by accident, do they? So, well-planned.
You better call Lisbon, give her an update.
You call her.
I can't. I'm driving. Cho?
No way.
Oh, come on, guys. I just robbed a Russian mobster. You can't call Lisbon?
Where's everyone?
Weird. They all called in to sign out. Jane wasn't feeling well, Rigsby's got a hot date, and Cho got Kings tickets.
Son of a...
What?
Jane doesn't get sick, Rigsby's not on a date because he's in love with you, and the Kings aren't playing tonight.
You know about that?
Yeah, they're on an East Coast road trip. They're playing the Knicks tomorrow night.
No, I mean about Rigsby. How do you know about that?
Everybody knows about that. The attorney general knows that.
Just follow procedure. Have fun!
Where is the fun in that?
You and Miss Duane came up here to have sex in the boss's office.
FFrank
That is absurd. Why would I do such a stupid thing?
Because it's forbidden and thus very sexy, of course, especially if you have father issues. And who doesn't? It's furtive but powerful challenge to the paternal authority.
