Peter

We have the highest closure rate of any C.I. team in the country. They wanna know what makes our partnership work.

I've been wondering the same thing lately.

Peter

Anderson is targeting a cutting edge bulletproof vest from the Hudson group.

Word is, this will be the best protection on the market.

My favorite method of protection is avoiding situations where people might shoot at me.

Peter

You ever wonder what would've happened if I hadn't made you my C.I.?

I'd still be in jail and your arrest rate would be in the low 70s.

Peter

High 80s.

Why did you take my deal?

Peter

I told you, your expertise.

That's all?

Peter

I realized... all those crimes you were committing, they were never about money, or greed.

What do you think they were about?

Peter

The challenge. That's what we have in common. I love the challenge.

I know you do.

Peter

And after all those years of chasing you, your cryptic clues, your late-night phone calls from international numbers...

Yeah, and the cookies, and birthday cards...

Peter

Yeah. I realized I liked you. That's why I took your deal.

...I may or may not have faked my death on multiple occasions -- Panama City, Bangalore.

Peter

Monterey Bay. I remember -- gored by a great white shark.

Thought you might appreciate that.

Peter

Who doesn't love a good shark mauling?

MModerator

There has to be immense trust between you two...

Peter

Usually. But when there isn't, there's always faith... Faith that whatever the other is doing, it's for a good reason.

As long as Peter has faith in me, I'll have faith in him.
