“Green Thumb” · Season 6, Episode 10

In this episode: Teresa Lisbon (5), Patrick Jane (4), Fischer (3), Kimball Cho (2), Wylie (1)

KFAgent Kim Fischer

Help me, Lisbon. There are national security issues at play. Jane won't work with us unless we meet his demands.

He has too much pride to back down. You gotta to give him a win. Meet one of his demands.

One of his demands is you.

Well, meet another one.

Why are you being so stubborn? The F.B.I. is offering you a get-out-of-jail-free card.

Well, you make that sound like a good thing.

Isn't it?

Not on their terms. If I can't live on my terms, I'm in prison anyway.

[surveying the FBI offices] Hmm. I don't see a couch anywhere.

Don't start trouble. At least not yet.

JWAgent Jason Wylie

Hey.

Hey.

I can't believe they gave me a desk!

[Wylie giggles and begins setting up his desk]

You can call me "The Coyote."

I don't think so.

That's just what they call me downstairs. Don't ask me why, though. They never told me.

Your name's Wylie.

Yeah.

Wile E. Coyote. "Roadrunner," the cartoon?

No, it's Irish, I think. Uh, good morning, Agent Stanley. Hey... Do you know the Roadrunner and the Coyote?

SAgent Stanley

Yeah. Sex traffickers in Dallas.

[whispering, concerned, to Cho] There's a cartoon about sex trafficking?

Hey, Cho, you got a minute?

[long pause, glancing at Wylie] Yeah.

He made fools of us.

It won't be the last time.

How do I get him under control?

You don't. Jane is what he is. He'll use you to turn every situation to his advantage.

So what would you suggest I do?

Use him to your advantage.

You ran away again, Jane. Not from the F.B.I. - you ran away from me.

Yeah, but I ran back.

How was I supposed to know? I thought you were gone again forever.

Okay, you're right. I-I'm sorry, Lisbon. I... I didn't think about you.

Well, you rarely do.

Well that's not true! I made you one of my demands. I'm—I'm not joining the F.B.I. unless they make you a job offer.

That's my point. What makes you think I want to work with you again? You are difficult and exhausting, and maybe I don't want to put the rest of my life on hold to be your sidekick. Have you ever even thought about that?

No... no. I hadn't considered it.
