Well, we could get on board and wait.
Not without a warrant, we're not.
Ugh. Rules are just so... tiresome and boring.
S5 E15Red Lacquer Nail Polish
Uh, Lisbon, I'm sorry, but I think we might have to get back to the crime scene.
Really? That place was so creepy.
Yes. But I'm worried we might have missed something because of that.
Okay, fine. But no jumping out and yelling "boo" at me or anything like that.
I mean, seriously, what do you take me for?
I am not going to answer that because I'm a nice person.
What? We followed the evidence.
You—you did. You... followed the evidence.
Okay. Okay, I was wrong. But we followed the evidence.
You know what gave me second thoughts about Elise Vogelsong? She read too many murder mystery novels.
There you go. That's not police work. That's guessing.
You should try it sometime. Now I'm gonna go pursue Red John. Ciao!
S5 E16There Will Be Blood
Her arrest continues to be a priority for Homeland.
I've heard you say that in the past, but you've never said why.
Lorelei Martins is a known associate of Red John. She escaped from prison. She kidnapped your colleague Patrick Jane.
Which are all valid reasons for the CBI to be involved, but Homeland? You deal with terrorists.
We have a wide range of investigative interests.
I have to learn that trick.
Which?
How you speak without saying anything.
Bertram is bringing Homeland into the Lorelai murder. Did you hear me?!
Yes.
Now that she's killed someone, they're gonna start looking again into her escape.
That's likely.
Jane. I know you broke her out of prison, and you know I know.
And I know you know I know.
This is not funny!. If they find out, you could be charged as an accomplice to murder.
Well, if they find out. They won't, unless, of course, you sing to the coppers.
Which I won't, and that makes me an accomplice to murder as well.
Well only if you look at it as a very persnickety lawyer.
She tortured someone!
Yeah. It's—it's horrible, I-I know. But she must have had good reason.
God, can you hear yourself?!
Yes, I hear myself. Julia Howard must have helped murder Lorelei's sister, must have been there with Red John. Lorelei wouldn’t do this otherwise. I trust her.
Jane... I am your partner, not her. You need to be honest with me.
I know.
If she contacts you, if you find anything out about her, if you have any insights about the case...
I will tell you.
You're foolish doing this on your own. Let me help you.
No. I've done terrible things. Unforgivable things. There's no way back. You and me are on different roads, I hope.
You're putting your trust in the mistress of a serial killer. She's playing you.
Playing me? How?
You're blind. You're involved with her. It's clouding your judgment.
There's no involvement. I feel nothing for her.
Now you're really lying. I'm gonna make this very simple. I will not be a part of this anymore, and neither will you, if you wanna remain with the team.
An ultimatum? Someone's playing a little too much poker. I confess. I-I may have some feelings, but if I have crossed any lines, it is not because I like her. I will do anything I can to get to Red John, but you have known that since the start.
S5 E17Red, White And Blue
Discipline always comes with a price.
We have to go back to the crime scene.
Why?
I want a taco.
RRisgby
Look on the bright side. In prison you won't have to pay for dates.
S5 E18Behind The Red Curtain
[Jane is at the hospital, watching Lennon's room. His cell phone rings.]
Hey, Lisbon.
Where the hell are you? Don't tell me you're at the hospital.
I'm not at the hospital?
We caught a case. You're needed at the crime scene.
I'll be there soon.
You're at the hospital, aren't you?
You told me to tell you I'm not at the hospital. What do you want? Make up your mind.
Get out of there. If Jason Lennon wakes up, and if he talks, and if he knows Red John's identity, Agent Kirkland and Homeland Security are perfectly capable of handling it.
I disagree.
You're playing with fire.
There are worse things to play with.
HSHomeland Security agent
[leading Jane out by the arm] This way, sir.
Yeah, I'm going. That's my arm! You have two of your own.
[he releases Jane's arm]
Thank you.
AAgent
How did you get in here? Who let you in?
[Sheila Pugliese smiles at Jane from behind the nurses' station as they pass]
Well, if I told you that, I wouldn't be able to get in when I come back, would I?
[Sheila takes a bite of a donut from the box on the nurses' station desk]
I don't know about this.
Oh, trust me. You'll have fun.
"Trust me. You'll have fun." Was there ever a more suspicious phase?
J.J., you have to live a little. You spend your days chasing paperclip thieves. When do you ever get the chance to nail a killer?
I'm happy to help... It's the performance aspect that concerns me.
What performance aspect? You go into a room. If someone says anything to you, you say, "Ha ha ha", or "Perhaps..."
Ha ha ha. Perhaps.
Good enough.
Would an accent help?
Eh... Keep it simple.
[Mandy calls Hanover, causing Dodge's phone to start playing its ringtone]
Excuse me. Your coat is playing the Fifth Symphony.
