“Cackle-Bladder Blood” · Season 3, Episode 2
In this episode: Patrick Jane (3), Teresa Lisbon (2)
I didn't know your wife was from this world, too.
Oh yeah. Her grandparents are carnie royalty. They ran big metal: Ferris wheels, ghost trains. They ran them all across the midwest. My wife, she didn't want to have any part of it.
Why?
Carnies are good people, but you're either with the show or you're not. There's nowhere in the middle, and if you're not with the show, you're a mark. You're a sucker. She didn't like that.
[knocks] Jane! It's me.
[opens a side door, surprising Lisbon] Hey, Lisbon. Excellent work finding us.
I am very unhappy with you. Is he in there?
Yep.
Bring him out. No funny business or I will shoot to kill.
You're very persuasive. We'll be right out.
So, this is it, huh? [remarking on his sister and niece, along with Jane's wife and daughter's graves] They'd like it, I guess, if they had a preference.
You know this is the first time I've been here since the funeral?
Why's that?
Because they're no here.
Hey, who knows for sure? Maybe they're up there right now looking down at us. Annie's saying, lighten up, you dummies.
Yeah, maybe.
Yeesh. I'm sorry I asked to come. Who would have known a trip to the cemetery would be such a downer.
It's all right. It's irrational. No reason to be sad. Are you going to give them those flowers or what?
Guilt is for marks. You know that right?
[looks away as his eyes fill with tears] Yeah.
