• [about Grace] 

  Wayne Rigsby : She's volunteering at a homeless kitchen.

  Kimball Cho : That's cool.

  Wayne Rigsby : There's a man there. I think she's... you know.

  Kimball Cho : Banging a homeless guy.

  Wayne Rigsby : No! A volunteer. A chef. And she's not - I don't know... Not yet. Maybe. I think. I don't know... No.

  Kimball Cho : Dude, you need counseling.

• Jeb Haas : I didn't kill anybody. I never saw Foster and I never went into his house.

  Kimball Cho : Nice if you could prove that.

  Jeb Haas : I can't. But I do have some particular information on that evening. Information that you want.

  Kimball Cho : Okay.

  Jeb Haas : Uh-uh. Not I get a deal on the theft and the breaking and entering charges. A good one, too.

  Kimball Cho : You want a deal? Okay. And just to be clear, is this a deal for the theft and B&E alone, or the tax evasion as well?

  Jeb Haas : What?

  Kimball Cho : According to your IRS records, you haven't filed a tax return since 2002. Unless you haven't earned a dime in income in seven years, you're facing some pretty serious tax evasion charges. Do you have any idea how much prison time that carries?

  Jeb Haas : Prison time?

  Kimball Cho : Serious time. Massive fines. I'm gonna let you think about it.

  Jeb Haas : [Cho stands to leave]  When I was loading stuff out of the poolhouse, I saw a car in the woods. A black BMW. There was somebody sitting in the driver's seat; Foster's wife.

  Kimball Cho : Lilian Foster?

  Jeb Haas : I've seen her in town. She sat there the whole time; she never even noticed me. She just... stared at the house.

  Kimball Cho : Was she still there when you left?

  Jeb Haas : Yes.

  [Cho turns to leave again] 

  Jeb Haas : So you'll do something, I mean about the tax thing?

  Kimball Cho : Don't worry. I was lying about that.

• Grace Van Pelt : I'm not saying volunteering is better work but it makes me feel better. I see people smiling because of what I've done. There's something, I don't know, joyous in it. How often do we see people smile in this job?

  Kimball Cho : Leaving out crazy, never.

• Kimball Cho : Victoria Abner has no arrests but a neighbor took out a restraining order against her. Argument about the neighbor's dog. Victoria got a little in-your-face about it.

  Teresa Lisbon : Go and see how mad she really was about Foster buying the mansion.

  Patrick Jane : And be sure to ask about the ghost too.

  Teresa Lisbon : Do not ask about ghosts.

  [Jane starts gesturing behind Lisbon] 

  Teresa Lisbon : Don't you think I know what you're doing? No ghosts!
