Dennis Abbott : Yeah, I'm the oldest of five. Some days keeping them in line...

Teresa Lisbon : Are you sure?
Dennis Abbott : Go and take care of your family.

Patrick Jane : Your brothers don't hate you.
Teresa Lisbon : Yeah, they do.
Patrick Jane : No, they don't.
Teresa Lisbon : Jimmy's right. I left. After my mom died, I was the parent, and I left.
Patrick Jane : Well, you felt trapped. Of course you did.
Teresa Lisbon : Now Stan's life is a mess, Jimmy's got a gambling problem, and god only knows what Tommy's up to.
Patrick Jane : Yeah, sure. Look, they... they've got their problems, but they're good people. They wouldn't even be here if you hadn't loved and protected them when they were kids. You're uncomfortable around them because you feel guilt. I don't understand that. But you need to know they're not mad at you. They're not. They just miss you.
Teresa Lisbon : You knew exactly what was going on, with Stan and Jimmy and the guy at the house. You figured it out and you didn't say a word to me.
Patrick Jane : Well... it's not my business.
Teresa Lisbon : Thank you.

Patrick Jane : Sounds right.

Jimmy Lisbon : Sis. What are you doing here?
Teresa Lisbon : There's a warrant out for your arrest. You're wanted for questioning by the U.S. Attorney and you ran away. Do you have any idea how much trouble you're in?
Patrick Jane : Catch anything?
Jimmy Lisbon : No.
[to Teresa]
Jimmy Lisbon : Your boyfriend?
Teresa Lisbon : Yeah. Patrick.
Patrick Jane : [shaking hands] Hi.
Teresa Lisbon : I want to help.
Jimmy Lisbon : Did I ask for your help?
Teresa Lisbon : No, but you're my brother.
Jimmy Lisbon : Yeah, I'm your brother. You know, it's funny how I'm only your brother when you think I messed up.

Teresa Lisbon : You're hiding something about Stan.
[Jimmy scoffs]
Teresa Lisbon : Jimmy. Come on, tell me what's going on.
Jimmy Lisbon : [muting the football game he's watching] Stan had a couple bad breaks in his business. Karen's last pregnancy was tough. He got behind on his bills. He owes money to the wrong people.
Teresa Lisbon : A loan shark. What's he in for?
Jimmy Lisbon : Over thirty grand.
Teresa Lisbon : Thirty? God. The man that attacked Jane, he wasn't looking for you. He was there for Stan. Why'd you cover for him?
Jimmy Lisbon : Stan, he's... he's working so hard to be good. Just wanted you to be proud of him.
Teresa Lisbon : I am proud of him. I'm proud of all of you.
Jimmy Lisbon : Really? Did you call me when I got my electrician's license? You only call to yell at me, just like always.
Teresa Lisbon : Look... I know I was tough on you when you were a kid, but come on. You know what mom and dad were like. Somebody had to be responsible. Somebody had to be in charge.
Jimmy Lisbon : Yeah, you were in charge. Then you left.
-
Teresa Lisbon : I know you're in trouble, Stan. Whatever I can do to help, let me help.
Stan Lisbon : You don't have to do that.
Teresa Lisbon : I know I don't have to. I want to. Just enough to keep you from getting punched in the face again.
Stan Lisbon : I kinda thought you wouldn't mind seeing me get punched in the face.
Teresa Lisbon : I'm the only one that gets to punch you.
Stan Lisbon : Okay.
Teresa Lisbon : [raising her fist] You want one?
Stan Lisbon : I'm good.
