“If It Bleeds, It Leads” · Season 5, Episode 7

In this episode: Teresa Lisbon (7), Patrick Jane (5), Kirkland (2), Volker (1)

Lisbon. So it's murder, is it?

It is. Let's go to the news station the victim worked at.

Ehhm, I'm kinda busy. Maybe later.

That's not how it works. We have to do our jobs.

Well I think you can do it, you're very capable.

I'm not kidding. Come on, let's go.

Okay, I'll go to the news station with you, get you started and then you're on your own, alright?

I am not in the sixth grade, that doesn't work on me!

I can't promise I'll always be around to help you, Teresa. There will come a time when you might have to do this on your own. And I want you to be prepared.

I am prepared to punch you in the face, all on my own.

KKasmir

[to Jane and Lisbon] You guys are great! Tough, good-looking, sincere. Let's put you on the air, ask the public for information, you know, blah, blah, blah.

There she was, worrying about journalism, while you were throwing yourself at Hunt and Kasmir, and she's the one that ends up with the anchor chair.

TSTara Skye

Yeah. I mean, no. I me— what?

Hell hath no fury like a slut outflanked. You must have felt like killing her.

SSkye

Yeah. W— Wait, no!

Really?

SSkye

No!

[she slaps Jane]

Ow!

SSkye

How dare you?!

Well, she's a definite maybe. That should give you enough to work with, though, don't you think?

I hope that hurt.

Volker is not going to get away with this. I'm gonna get him. If not for the murder, then for whatever Amanda Shaw can give me. Tax evasion, fraud, unpaid parking tickets. I'm gonna bring in Amanda and lean on her.

Look at you! So tough! I'm getting goosebumps. Rawr.

She left a suicide note, you know? Via e-mail.

You will not get away with this. I promise.

You have no idea what's happening at all, do you? Enjoy your job while you still have it, Teresa.

Agent Lis-bon.

It's Lisbon.

Lisbon. Pardon me. Bob Kirkland, Homeland Security. We don't know each other, but we need to talk.

How can I help you Mister Kirkland?

Call me Bob.

Okay. What is it?

Volker. You need to stop worrying about him, okay?

"Stop worrying about him", what is that supposed to mean?

I'm telling you off the records, but it's being taken care of. Trust me. You should take a step back.

So you can take credit for the arrest? Not a chance.

No. No, it's not like that. But Volker is... a very powerful man. Agent. He contributed to a lot of campaigns.

Is that supposed to scare me?

No. You just need to watch your step. Can I buy you a cup of coffee sometime?

...Sure.
