[sighing] This room makes me feel like I'm in an aquarium, and everyone's looking at me.
Mm. Well, you could very easily feel like they're all in the aquarium and you're looking at them.
I'm following the conversation. The G-man says that I don't have adequate security clearance to work on the Whitaker case, and Fischer is arguing.
Are you reading their lips?
I would be if I didn't have to answer inane questions.
I'm not your boss. Why would you say that?
It's just that sometimes now you act like you are.
But we're equals, partners.
Okay, fine. Just remember that.
[I]f Whitaker was murdered because of his highly sensitive military work with the Pentagon, I shouldn't know anything about that. So, I'll happily leave.
D Agent Daniels
Wait. What did you tell him?
D Daniels
Who told you that he works for the Pentagon? And consider your answer well.
D Daniels
Don't be absurd. I've never seen you before.
No, but your presence here told me, because you wouldn't be here if he worked for, uh, Pottery Shack or Pizza Barn, would you?
You're excused. [to Fischer ] He's a little slow on the uptake, this one.
D Daniels
Fischer, this is unacceptable.
No, no. Hush. Don't apologize. Don't take it out on her. She didn't do anything.
Thank you, Curtis. We'll be in touch.
CW Curtis Whitaker
Thank you. Good day to you. [Curtis turns to leave the room]
[before Curtis exits] Well, he's a prime suspect.
C Curtis
[stops and asks Jane, dumbfounded] Say again?
Oh, I was talking to my colleagues. Bye, Curtis.
They'll try again. They just need to be lulled into a false sense of security.
And how do we lull them like that?
We need to arrest someone else and charge them with Whitaker's murder.
We can't arrest people under false pretenses.
AF Abbott and Fischer
[in unison] No.
Oh. Well, that's a problem. I guess we need to think outside of the box.
That's always a bad sign.
Hey, are you gonna be home for dinner?
Wait. Are you at that dirty taco truck?
[Rigsby crams the rest of his taco into his mouth]
[sighs] I can literally hear you trying to think up an excuse.
No, that's the sound of me eating a taco. Salad tonight, I promise. I love you, bye.
