Jane? How are you feeling?
It's good to see you breathing.
It's good to see you period.
We are doing everything we can to find your attacker. You didn't happen to see a face, did you?
No... Not that I can remember.
What's the last thing you do remember?
[He makes her come closer.] Are we sleeping together?
Excuse me?! [backs off quickly.]
Well, you're a cop, that's obvious. But you're not judging me like a suspect, and I can't see any other reason for a police officer to come to my bed side [laughs] , unless we're sleeping together.
You don't ... know who I am.
Please don't take it personnaly, I'm sure you're quite memorable. I just... I've been through a lot, apparently.
No. We are not sleeping together.
We're working toward it, right? So I haven't missed anything. [She looks lost.] So, what's your name?
[smiles] Are you putting me on?
I'm Teresa Lisbon, I'm with the CBI. I'm a homicide detective. You're my consultant.
I catch bad guys, well that sounds like fun! I always wanted to put my psychic gifts against criminals.
Is anything coming back to you?
Kids prefer cheese over fried green spinach.
It's an acronym for the seven levels of taxonomy: kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species.
I can also name the geological time periods, the worlds longest rivers by size, and the complete works of Shakespeare in chronological order.
So the memory palace is intact?
I told you about the memory palace?
This is my fault. I'm the one he conned. I should know better.
So should I. I'm the one who got him out of the hospital. We were all marks today.
Not me. What? He didn't con me.
Only because he wants to have a date with you.
Don't take this the wrong way, but the death of Jane's family made him a better person.
That person was always inside of him. The murder just brought it out.
[shows Jane the face Red John drew in Jane's daughter's room, which causes his memory to return]
Okay. Your armed robber - desperate amateur. Why work alone? Because he doesn't know any other criminals. The lucha libre mask projects the correct attitude, but look - look what he is wearing . Khakis and a fitted sweater.
No wonder the guard tried to shoot him. The closest a man should ever come to touching a fitted sweater is helping a woman out of one.
[Y]ou're still good at sussing out guilty parties.
Huh. How do I do that, exactly?
Ah, it's hard to say. Causing trouble, mostly.
Well, in that case, Wayne, what's the best way in with the luscious redhead?
Well, clearly you two had a thing, and she dumped you, but maybe you can share a tip on how to open the cookie jar, you know? Get some, uh... tasty ginger snaps?
You want a tip? Back off.
We both cheated death! That's remarkable. We should get T-shirts made up!
[Lisbon and Van Pelt confront Jane at the bar where he has been performing "psychic" readings]
You said at the hospital you were dying to help. This is NOT helping.
I am. I'm investigating. I felt bad about the fish stunt I pulled on these boys, so, uh, I decided to take the B shift out for a night on the town, you know, get to know 'em, make sure they're all innocent of murder.
They're the best of the best! [Jane toasts the firefighters]
F firefighters
Yeah! You're the man, Paddy! [they toast him back]
F firefighters
Cheers. [to Lisbon and Van Pelt] Oh, by the way, he got the last round. Could you thank him for me?
[with a strained laugh] We're going back to the hospital now.
I'm gonna take a rain check on that. I got another show later. You should stick around. I'm best with the late crowd.
Are you gonna make me call backup to get you out of this bar? Because I will do that, "Paddy."
Uh, no. Actually, put a fork in it. I'm done. No more police work.
I understand. You can stay in the hospital until you get your memory back.
What if I don't get it back? I talked to my paramedic friends. They told me that all I need to be released from this hospital is the signature from a responsible adult, and [pulls several phone numbers out of his pockets] I got some pretty tasty offers tonight! [chuckling] I'm telling you, this wedding ring—!
My parting gift I will give to you tomorrow morning. Good night.
[Lisbon sits down in Jane's hospital room chair]
[from bed] There's room up here.
