• Coroner Steiner : You're the consultant that pretends to read minds, aren't you?

  Patrick Jane : No. I don't pretend to read minds, I *do* read minds. Don't we all look at Lisbon and see what she's thinking.

  Teresa Lisbon : No kidding.

  Patrick Jane : And I can see what you're thinking right now.

  Coroner Steiner : I was thinking that you, sir, are a bumptious fool, and I was wondering exactly what training in forensic pathology you have.

  Patrick Jane : Ah. But right before that, you were wondering whether you would choose Lisbon or Van Pelt as your concubine in that little fantasy kingdom you like to visit sometimes.

• Virgil Minelli : Step carefully. I want daily reports. Oh, and how did the Bats interview go?

  Patrick Jane : Oh, that was very exciting.

  [Jane leaves] 

  Virgil Minelli : What did he do?

  Teresa Lisbon : Nothing that can't be repaired.

  [Lisbon leaves] 

• Dr. Roy Carmen : Do you know why counseling is mandatory for CBI agents who have been involved in a shooting?

  Teresa Lisbon : Need a map?... Good luck.

• Patrick Jane : Oh, I trained myself to hear and take in information while asleep.
