Quotes 

• Patrick Jane : [mimicking Lisbon]  No, I don't want to hear your plan, sheep-dip your plan.

• Patrick Jane : I'm glad to see you're finally learning a few things. Of course, now I shall have my revenge.

  Teresa Lisbon : What do you mean?

  Patrick Jane : Ah.

  [Jane chuckles] 

• Teresa Lisbon : What the Hell was that? Are you insane? And where did you come up with that stupid ass diamond theory?

  Patrick Jane : I don't know what came over me. I see that man, I get an immediate urge to wind him up.

  Teresa Lisbon : He's the Director!

  Patrick Jane : I'm sorry. He amuses me.

• Teresa Lisbon : I promise, I will never lie to you again. I lied this *one* time because I'm concerned. You're isolating yourself. You're pulling away from us, from me and the unit. You are! It's not good. What's going on.

  Patrick Jane : Anybody that gets close to me, bad things happen to them.

  Teresa Lisbon : "A" that's not true. And "B" even if it were, I'm a cop. It's our job to be harm's way.

  Patrick Jane : You're not listening to me.

  Teresa Lisbon : We're family! What you're doing is a kind of betrayal. A surrender. A defeat. You're letting Red John win!

• Teresa Lisbon : [after Jane whispers sometime to a reporter]  What did you tell her?

  Patrick Jane : I was complimenting her on her jacket. It's such a vivid color.

  Teresa Lisbon : Liar.

  Patrick Jane : You're gonna call me a liar?

  Teresa Lisbon : Oh, I hate you. I do.

  Patrick Jane : Oh, mm-mm.

• Patrick Jane : I have a lot on my mind right now. Uh, I didn't really didn't want to come to work today. But my good friend, and colleague, Agent Lisbon tricked me into meeting you. Knowing that I couldn't refuse you because you're the age my daughter would be if she were still alive. If she hadn't be murdered.

  Patricia Farrow : Oh goodness.

  [Patricia gasps] 

  Patrick Jane : Murdered by a man named Red John. Whom I met recently, he saved my life and abducted a friend of mine. Long story. Hence many things on my mind.

• Patrick Jane : Don't ever do that again.

  Drew Yost : [Drew chuckles]  Or else what?

  Patrick Jane : You ever smell a dead mouse? You remember that smell?

  Drew Yost : Yes.

  Patrick Jane : Well, I just now put a dead mouse in your jacket pocket, and no matter how many times you clean that jacket, you will always smell that dead mouse. And you will remember that you should *never* put your hands on me.

  Drew Yost : [Drew violently removes his jacket and throws it to the ground]  Son of a bitch!

  Patrick Jane : It's actually just a waded up napkin. But, uh, has the same psychological effect. Human mind's funny that way.

  [to Betram] 

  Patrick Jane : Good to meet you sir. Sorry Lisbon.

  [Jane leaves] 

  Teresa Lisbon : He had a rough summer.

• Patrick Jane : Well why don't we just give it to the FBI, they love that stuff.

  Teresa Lisbon : Oh I wish, it's too late, the new boss is here doing it on camera as it's our baby.

  Patrick Jane : The new boss? I thought Hightower was boss...

  Teresa Lisbon : And the boss of Hightower, the director of the entire division... I told you about him last week. Your memory's goin...

  Patrick Jane : My memory is a mighty fortress Lisbon, from which, no fact ever escapes once committed. Now when you tell me boring things, I set 'em free immediately. Saves overcrowding.

• Teresa Lisbon : How do you think the director is going to feel when he finds out you fooled him into talking complete garbage on TV?

  Patrick Jane : It's not garbage. He'll be very angry or very happy, depending on whether I'm right or not.

  Teresa Lisbon : Right about what? There is no diamond... ah, I see: a trap. Very clever.

  Patrick Jane : Hmm.

  Teresa Lisbon : A trap for who?

  Patrick Jane : Guess.

  Teresa Lisbon : Just tell me!

  Patrick Jane : Guess.

  Teresa Lisbon : You know what, screw you! You crossed a line already and now you're playing guessing games with me?

  Patrick Jane : No, it's just that I'm not quite sure myself. I do have a plan though.

  Teresa Lisbon : Oh, sheep-dip! You're still trying to punish me for lying to you. Well you know what? I'm sorry. Sorry. You wanted off this case, you're off. Go take a nap in your little thinking room. We'll solve this case without you, the right way. With good solid detective work.

  [storms off] 

  Patrick Jane : So I take it you don't want to hear my plan?

  [mimicking Lisbon] 

  Patrick Jane : No, I don't wanna hear your plan... sheep-dip your plan.

• [first lines] 

  Cop : You can't park there.

  Patrick Jane : [walks past and gestures back nonchalantly at his car]  Sure I can. Look.

• Teresa Lisbon : We're family! What you're doing is a kind of betrayal, a surrender, a defeat. You're letting Red John win!

  Patrick Jane : Oh please. Please, really? Okay enough. All right. No more pulling away. All right? Here, give me a hug.

  Teresa Lisbon : You don't mean it. I can tell.

  Patrick Jane : What do you mean? You can't tell. I don't mean it, but you can't tell that I don't. You're guessing.

  Teresa Lisbon : Yes, I can tell.

  Patrick Jane : How?

  Teresa Lisbon : I don't know. I can tell when you're lying.

  Patrick Jane : You can't.

  Teresa Lisbon : I can too.

  Patrick Jane : That' nonsense. You're lying. Liar, liar pants on fire.

  Teresa Lisbon : I'm not lying.

  Patrick Jane : You are.
