Quotes 

• Asher MacLean : I think you might show a little more respect.

  Patrick Jane : Respect for a...

  Chief Elaine Brody : There's a dead child here.

  Patrick Jane : Yes. Yes. He's dead. He doesn't care how I talk to you.

• Elliot : How did you know it was me?

  Patrick Jane : When Cassie brought Maclean tea in a cup with z's on it, that was a warning from you to keep his mouth shut. You were the first to bring forth the Zachariah story. And you've been at this school longer than anyone else, with no desire to leave. The sacred fire ceremony confirmed my hunch. Everybody else was scared that I was invoking Zachariah, but you, you were contemptuous and cynical. A true artist watching a cheap imitator. Until fear made you a believer. It can do that to you.

• Patrick Jane : I would've gotten more out of them, but you came back too quickly.

  Teresa Lisbon : Reality check: I'm your Supervising Agent. I'm not your decoy.

• Patrick Jane : [to Justin's parents]  Your son died bravely. He saved a young girl in trouble. You should be very proud.

• Patrick Jane : What kind of tree is this?

  Chief Elaine Brody : Couldn't say.

  Patrick Jane : Smells good. So you're not a local?

  Chief Elaine Brody : Born five miles down the road. Just don't give a crap about trees.

• Patrick Jane : Who's Zachariah?

  Asher MacLean : Who?

  Patrick Jane : Zachariah.

  Asher MacLean : Never heard of him. Who is he?

  Patrick Jane : Liar.

  Asher MacLean : Liar?

  Patrick Jane : Pants on fire. They're ablaze.

• Chief Elaine Brody : Do you have any actual facts?

  Patrick Jane : Well, it's an actual fact that you dislike Mr. MacLean here because he's a tree-hugging, liberal wacko, who's probably running some kind of a cult, and he dislikes you because you're a small-minded provincial hayseed. Not that you are, necessarily. That's just what he thinks.

• Teresa Lisbon : Jane what the hell are you playing at? You can't tie people up.

  Patrick Jane : I'm sorry.

  Teresa Lisbon : I should think you are. You'll be sorrier when I report this.

• Patrick Jane : Name?

  Orrin : Orrin.

  Patrick Jane : Orrin. Watch me now. I'll demonstrate the power of telecognition. I will read your thoughts.

  [Stands close to Orrin, with his hands on either side of his head] 

  Patrick Jane : Hmmm. You're thinking - "Gosh I hope he can't read my thoughts, because then he'll know that I was up in the woods with Justin Prentiss on the night before he died, throwing paint bombs at the ol' crazy man's door."

  [Stands and speaks normally] 

  Patrick Jane : Orrin, that was kind of dumb. You should have thought of something a little more innocent.

• Teresa Lisbon : Chief Broady's setting up for a full scale search. So we should probably start looking in the woods around the school.

  Patrick Jane : Oh, that sounds horribly tedious.

  [Starts walking away] 

  Patrick Jane : Shout if you need me.

  Teresa Lisbon : Go ahead. Relax. Enjoy yourself. God forbid you should do anything tedious.

• Patrick Jane : I'd like to talk to Justin's friends.

  Asher MacLean : Of course. He was in Missy Jenkin's teaching pod. Bear in mind, I or one of my staff members need to be present when you talk with any of our students.

  Patrick Jane : You do?

  Asher MacLean : It's the law.

  Patrick Jane : Really?

• Patrick Jane : Zachariah and the Z krew.

  Orrin : Why should I tell you? You know what I'm thinking.

  Patrick Jane : Yes, but it would be more polite if you said it aloud, for their benefit.

  [Gestures to Lisbon and Maclean] 

• Patrick Jane : So what's the deal with Justin? Who disliked him?

  Elliot : Nobody. He was... fine.

  Patrick Jane : Oh, you say that like he was a prize jerk.

  Marley : No. He wouldn't win any prizes.
