Quotes 

• Patrick Jane : People trapped in miserable lives always talk about escaping. Few actually do it. It's easier just to close your eyes and to pretend the misery doesn't exist.

• Teresa Lisbon : It's good to see you care.

  Patrick Jane : You know sarcasm is the lowest form of wit.

• Patrick Jane : There is one name programmed into every phone. Particularly into one belonging to a middle aged man that was wearing wedding band. Home.

  Nina Hodge : [On the phone]  Hello?

  Patrick Jane : This Patrick Jane from the California Beareau of Investigation. I was wondering if you knew a man 6 feet tall, mid 40's, salt and pepper hair, grey custom made suit, weighing about 192 give or take.

  Nina Hodge : That's my husband! Gordon Hodge.

  Patrick Jane : Gordon Hodge.

  Nina Hodge : You said you were from CBI, is something wrong?

  Patrick Jane : Just a sec.

  [Hands the bluetooth to Lisbon] 

  Patrick Jane : It's for you.

• Felicia Gutherie : And what were you people doing out here anyway?

  Patrick Jane : Oh we thought you killed uh, Gordon Hodge. So Agent Cho and Rigsby are watching you.

  [to Lisbon] 

  Patrick Jane : Oh come on. She was never gonna buy "We just happened to be in the neighborhood."

• [about the woods they're in] 

  Patrick Jane : It's lovely.

  Teresa Lisbon : It's a crime scene.

  Patrick Jane : It's a lovely crime scene.

• Teresa Lisbon : Where are you going?

  Patrick Jane : Fresh air. All this murder talk is rank. It stinks to heaven. It hath the primal eldest curse upon't.

• Grace Van Pelt : Boss, Nina and Lucas Hodge are here to see you.

  Teresa Lisbon : She say why?

  Patrick Jane : Because I asked them down here. Rigsby, could you bring her through here, please? It'll just take a minute. Thank you.

  Teresa Lisbon : [Rigsby leads Felicia into the bullpen]  Are you gonna tell me what this about?

  Patrick Jane : I'm just closing your case.

• Patrick Jane : You know you're a very good liar. Most people subconsciously signal dishonesty. But you, there's nothing. No inner conflict. Usually that's the mark of what shrinks like to call a sociopath.

  Von McBride : Well, if by sociopath you mean that if you cross me, I would enjoy watching you suffer pain before I kill you. Then yeah, I'm a sociopath. See ya.
