TV show quotes
What the hell are you doing Hannigan?!
Boss...
I told you to take him downstairs, not beat him up!
Sorry, okay? Sorry, I lost it.
No, no, it's fine, it's fine. My fault, my fault entirely. I provoked you.
God Hannigan, get him some ice!
I'm okay, I'm okay. Seriously, it's not his fault. I deserved it, okay?
He is supposed to act like a professional law officer all the times. Let's get you some ice, come on.
Teresa Lisbon. It's a... it's a nice name.
Yes.
Virgil Minelli?
Yes, who's this?
Alexa Schultz, FBI. We met at the forensics conference in Roanoke.
Director Schultz. What a pleasure to hear from you.
I understand the CBI has hired a new consultant, a man named Patrick Jane?
Yes. I'm surprised you know, I didn't realise you followed our hiring that closely.
Mister Jane is connected to a case we're interested in. The serial killer known as Red John. I'm, ehm, calling to ask a favour.
What's that?
I would appreciate updates on the Red John case. That way when my boss asks me what's going on, I have something to tell him.
To put it bluntly Alexa, why would I do that? What's in it for me?
Well it's useful to have a friend in the FBI, isn't it? And I'm a good friend.
Well, I'm a great believer in interagencies cooperation. I don't see why we couldn't engage in some.
I look forward to it, Virgil. Oh, by the way, one thing we might wanna know about Patrick Jane. You know how he's been out of sight in the past year? You know where he's been?
No.
In an insane asylum. Good luck... Done.
Thank you.
No, don't answer that!
Why not?
Just don't, give it to me.
Tell me.
I can't.
Well, if you don't I'm gonna answer it.
Don't! He told me not to involve the police.
Who did?
The kidnapper. He took Marcus and Pella and he told me he'd kill them if I involved the police.
Then answer that.
Hello?
(pretending to be the kidnapper) You alone?
Yes.
Tell me... What are you wearing? Hahaha! Hi, how you doing? It's me, yeah! Hahaha!
I think you guys can handle it from here.
Hey. You never told me what happened with the driver.
Yeah must have... slipped my mind. Excuse me.
He knows something, doesn't he? Jane let me help you.
[to Lisbon] Stop lying to me, bitch! I know they have it!
Hey! Just for that you're not gonna see a dime, not unless you do as I say! And if you don't, don't bother calling back!
You don't criticize his performance? Just mine?
He was good. You? Eeh.
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.
[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.
Yeah. I mean, no. I me— what?
Hell hath no fury like a slut outflanked. You must have felt like killing her.
Yeah. W— Wait, no!
Really?
No!
[she slaps Jane]
Ow!
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.
Show Volker this sketch and watch his face.
I know what to do.
I know you do. You go girl!
Give him some lipstick and some blush.
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.
Ooh, excuse me.
Sorry, Mister Jane.
Do I know you?
No. But I know you.
