Quotes 

• Grace Van Pelt : It's really important to you that Kristina's a fake, isn't it? Because if she's not. If she does have a gift, everything you mock, everything you discredit, everything you stand for gets turned upside down.

  Patrick Jane : Um

  [Jane clears his throat] 

  Patrick Jane : Yeah. True. Unlikely, but true.

• Kristina Frye : Ever since your wife and daughter were killed, there's a question that been tormenting you, yes?... Yes?

  Patrick Jane : Yes.

  Kristina Frye : Your wife wants you to know that your daughter never woke up. She didn't know what happened. She wasn't scared. Not even for a second.

  Patrick Jane : You're done channeling? That's it?

  Kristina Frye : That's it.

  Patrick Jane : Thanks.

• Grace Van Pelt : [referring to Kristina Frye]  Excuse me, but you might consider the possibility that she's actually honestly in touch with something beyond your understanding.

  Patrick Jane : That would be golf and musical theater of the '30s and '40s.

• Teresa Lisbon : Play nice, Van Pelt's entitled to her opinion.

  Patrick Jane : Not if it's wrong. This is like believing in the Easter Bunny.

  Wayne Rigsby : Who said there's no Easter Bunny?

• Patrick Jane : [sniffs]  Mm. I smell dead people.

• Patrick Jane : Calling? Is that what this is?

  Kristina Frye : Yeah. Calling. Gift if you like, there's no doubt you have it. Why'd you give it up?

  Patrick Jane : It was the suits. Chaffing. Horrible.

• Kristina Frye : I think it's important to love oneself. How you do you feel about yourself?

  Patrick Jane : Oh.

  [Jane chuckles] 

  Patrick Jane : You tell me. And forget about the $500 an hour. I'm on Civil Service pay.

  Kristina Frye : Okay, for free then. I think you act assured and arrogant but inside you're troubled with deep guilt and self-loathing. A recent trauma in your past perhaps. But you're more than a little unstable.

  [to Lisbon] 

  Kristina Frye : You have your work cut out for you.

  Grace Van Pelt : You *are* good.

• Patrick Jane : Okay, got. By her own admission, she's either, a channel for energies of the departed souls, or she's involved in this murder. So you got a choice: you can call Ghostbusters, or we can take this lady downtown.

  Teresa Lisbon : [to Kristine Frye]  Miss Frye, would you mind coming to our office in the morning and answering a few more questions in detail?

• Patrick Jane : The only question is: did you take his room as soon as he left, or did he leave because you took his room?

  Jeremy Hale : You're in my personal space, please step back.

• Kendall Cho : I'll never doubt you again.

  Patrick Jane : You've ever doubted me?
