Virgil Minelli : Oh, hi. Lisbon. Still here?
Teresa Lisbon : Uh, that was more of a rhetorical stand, we were taking back there.
Virgil Minelli : You take it back then?
Teresa Lisbon : Oh no, but I wanted to talk to you...
Virgil Minelli : This! The, uhm, the suspension paperwork, right here...
Teresa Lisbon : Look, I...
Virgil Minelli : I have to go and visit my sister in Hawaii for a week. She's sick. Meanwhile, this paperwork is going to sit on my desk. For a week. Is that clear? One week.
Teresa Lisbon : Yes sir! Thank you...
Virgil Minelli : Yes... Be very grateful. Do not contact me, I do not want to know anything. And please, do not dig the hole that you are standing in any deeper than you have already dug it.
Teresa Lisbon : No sir.
Virgil Minelli : That hole is the grave of your very promising career.
Teresa Lisbon : You should put a flash light underneath your chin, just to complete the effect.
Virgil Minelli : I'm not kidding.
Teresa Lisbon : I know.
-
Teresa Lisbon : Minelli wants me to keep a watch on you.
Patrick Jane : What are you going to do?
Teresa Lisbon : I'm not going to follow you around. Let's compromise, when you get in trouble, call me first so I can try and minimize the damage.
Patrick Jane : Deal.
Teresa Lisbon : And-and don't use your CBI card. The Bureau find out you used it without authorization, you're done.
Patrick Jane : I hear you.
-
Teresa Lisbon : We closed cases before he came. We'll close cases after he's gone.
Kimball Cho : Yeah. Just not so many.
Wayne Rigsby : The cases are *not* the point! It's not that we need him. He needs *us*!
-
Virgil Minelli : Okay here it is. If you pursue this any further,I'm going to have to throw you out of the CBI. We can't take that liability. I very much do not want to have to do that!
Patrick Jane : [Clears his throat] I know you don't. So, uh, well, I'll spare you the trouble.
[Puts his card on the desk]
Patrick Jane : I quit.
Teresa Lisbon : Don't do that.
Patrick Jane : [Looking at Lisbon] No. It's okay. It's best this way. You are the Good Witch, Glinda, obviously. Thank you. I learned a lot.
-
Teresa Lisbon : Just do me the favor of listening to me for a minute so I can say "I told you so" later.
Patrick Jane : Sure.
-
Patrick Jane : Well you can say it now.
Teresa Lisbon : Well, I don't really feel like saying it. Let me take a rain check on that.
Patrick Jane : Sure.
-
Teresa Lisbon : If we don't get this closed up before Minelli gets back, we're done.
Patrick Jane : Plan B, then.
Teresa Lisbon : What's plan B?
Patrick Jane : Ooh, you're not gonna like it.

Patrick Jane : Well, you can say it now.
Teresa Lisbon : I don't really feel like saying it. Let me take a rain check on that.
Patrick Jane : Sure.
Teresa Lisbon : [about the message left by Renfrew] What do you think it means?
Patrick Jane : It means Red John is far more powerful than I ever thought. He's been way ahead of me this whole time.
Teresa Lisbon : I mean the writing on the wall.
Patrick Jane : Oh, I have no idea.
Teresa Lisbon : Well it's a good clue though, isn't it? Jared was trying to tell us something important.
Patrick Jane : Maybe.
Teresa Lisbon : Next time. We'll get him.
Patrick Jane : Next time.
[the prostitute's cell phone plays a Latin tune. Jane answers. He hears breathing]
Patrick Jane : Hello.
[a voice laughs evilly on the other end]
