Patrick Jane
- Patrick Jane: How's the roundup going?
- Teresa Lisbon: Haibach wouldn't come with me. I think he's hiding something.
- Patrick Jane: Well, a guy like that probably takes issue with lady police. Ladies in general.
- Teresa Lisbon: You're right. You know what? I'll send Cho and Rigsby.
- Patrick Jane: Or not. Would the world really miss him if something happened?
- Teresa Lisbon: And that's the difference between you and me.
- Teresa Lisbon: You sure you're all right?
- Patrick Jane: The list is down to five names. That is a very manageable number.
- Teresa Lisbon: Somehow that doesn't reassure me.
- Patrick Jane: We're in the home stretch, Lisbon.
- Teresa Lisbon: Okay, no more secrets. Spill it, now.
- Patrick Jane: I was concerned with security when I was working my list of Red John suspects.
- Teresa Lisbon: Obsessively secretive.
- Patrick Jane: Well, you say tomato. But I knew there were people that needed that information, so I planted what you would call misinformation on my crime board.
- Teresa Lisbon: So whoever saw your crime board got the list of the seven Red John suspects.
- Patrick Jane: But they would be the wrong suspects, exactly. And it worked. Someone broke into my office.
- Teresa Lisbon: How do you know?
- Patrick Jane: Well, I set a trap and it was sprung. Now this person has a fake list of Red John suspects, and Benjamin Marx was on that list.
- Teresa Lisbon: So somebody is torturing and killing the people on your fake list.
- Patrick Jane: Whoa, whoa. Not necessarily. Someone tortured and killed one person from my list. Theoretically, his death could be about anything. He wasn't a nice man.
- Teresa Lisbon: I am trying to wrap my mind around this. Now, you put the lives of seven innocent people in danger.
- Patrick Jane: No, none of them are innocent. Marx defrauded hundreds of people, then he brutally murdered someone to cover it up. I assure you, Lisbon, all of these men are very bad. They just don't happen to be Red John.
- [first lines]
- Teresa Lisbon: [arriving at a crime scene] Agent Lisbon, Jane. CBI.
- FBI Agent: Sorry, FBI personnel only.
- Patrick Jane: Uh, we don't want to be here either, but we were invited.
- Teresa Lisbon: Uh, could you tell Agent Reede Smith that we're here as requested?
- [the agent leaves]
- Teresa Lisbon: What do you think Smith wants?
- Patrick Jane: I don't know. What do you think?
- Teresa Lisbon: Every time we go to see one of these Red John suspects, I get edgy.
- Patrick Jane: Really? I can't tell.
- Teresa Lisbon: How can we be of help, Agent Smith?
- Reede Smith: We caught a body. I thought it might interest you.
- Patrick Jane: And why would you say that?
- Reede Smith: You tell me.
- Patrick Jane: [studying the body, he notices a distinctive cuff link] This is Benjamin Marx.
- Reede Smith: The guy you buried alive.
- Patrick Jane: Excuse me, the *killer* I buried alive. And I did let him out, eventually.
- Reede Smith: Not bad. That's a tough ID, considering most of his face is burned off. What do you think happened to him?
- Patrick Jane: You're the FBI. I'm sure you have the answers already.
- Reede Smith: Okay. Tell me what I've come up with.
- Patrick Jane: Well, the first thing you'd notice is that he was tortured, with fire and whatever it is people use to cut someone's thumbs off.
- Reede Smith: And what do I think he was tortured for?
- Patrick Jane: Well, your guess would be sadistic pleasure, but you'd be wrong. More likely he was tortured for information. Information that he didn't have.
- Reede Smith: How do you know he didn't have it?
- Patrick Jane: Because if he had it, the killer would only have had to burn off half his face.
- Teresa Lisbon: Why are we here, Agent Smith?
- Reede Smith: Marx was out on bail while he stood trial. Things were looking for him, too. I mean, you tortured him into a confession, so a little good lawyering, a little luck, and he could walk. I bet that really chapped your hide, huh, Jane?
- Patrick Jane: Not at all.
- Teresa Lisbon: That's the best theory the FBI can come up with? That Jane killed Benjamin Marx and burned his face off?
- Reede Smith: We're exploring every angle. He's an angle.
- Patrick Jane: Listen, if I wanted to kill Benjamin Marx, I would have done it the first time. He was a sociopath that stole from widows and orphans, and he got what he deserved, but I didn't do it.
- Reede Smith: We'll see.
- Patrick Jane: Yes, we will.
- Teresa Lisbon: What's going on, Jane?
- Patrick Jane: Nothing.
- Teresa Lisbon: Tell me.
- Patrick Jane: I said it's nothing.
- Teresa Lisbon: It's never "nothing" with you. You think Smith is Red John?
- Patrick Jane: Possibly.
- Teresa Lisbon: Well, if he isn't Red John, he's an idiot for thinking you could have anything to do with Marx's death.
- Patrick Jane: Well, he's not completely wrong. I mean, I didn't kill Benjamin Marx, but I might have got him killed.
- Teresa Lisbon: This is bad.
- Patrick Jane: Not really. Confirms the theory that someone is going through my list, trying to find Red John.
- Teresa Lisbon: Haibach has been abducted and he's probably gonna be tortured to death.
- Patrick Jane: Yeah, he's in for a a rough night.
- Teresa Lisbon: And we have to tell Smith and the FBI that he's been taken and that it's connected to the Marks case.
- Patrick Jane: No, we don't.
- Teresa Lisbon: We can't lie.
- Patrick Jane: We do it all the time.
- Teresa Lisbon: He's gonna put it together eventually, and it'll be worse.
- Patrick Jane: Okay, fine, tell him. But do not mention the list. Just tell him that someone else connected to an old case of ours has gone missing.
- Teresa Lisbon: Agreed. What do we do now?
- Patrick Jane: I will have the answer for that very soon.
- Teresa Lisbon: [in Jane's loft] Do you think the real Red John could have broken in here and killed Marx?
- Patrick Jane: Well, Red John is the only person besides us who knows the real list of suspects, so he is the only person that has no motive to do this.
- Teresa Lisbon: Then who broke in here?
- Patrick Jane: I don't know. Someone with easy access, a lot of resources, and power.
- Teresa Lisbon: The FBI. They've been wanting to get their hands on the Red John case for a while. They were not happy when Homeland Security took over.
- Patrick Jane: True. You know, I've always suspected the FBI were watching me, personally.
- Teresa Lisbon: As paranoid as it sounds, it would explain how they got the Marx case. But why would they do this to him? And how do we proceed? I can't just go to the FBI and ask them if they killed Marx.
- Patrick Jane: If the FBI has been watching me, I'll bet that someone very high up in the CBI authorized it, or at least went along with it. I need to talk to them.
- Teresa Lisbon: Bertram. But you obviously can't ask him.
- Patrick Jane: Madeleine Hightower, then.
- Teresa Lisbon: Hightower? She hasn't run the CBI in three years. What kind of information do you think she still has access to? And if so, why would she share it with you?
- Patrick Jane: Well, Red John tried to kill her. She's gonna want to help me.
- Teresa Lisbon: Unless she blames you.
- Patrick Jane: Eh, I'm gonna call her.
- Patrick Jane: Oh, what do you have planned for the day? You don't officially have a case, do you? You can relax. Get a massage, mani-pedi.
- Teresa Lisbon: No. I have to go and offer protection to the six people on your list, which you are going to give me.
- Patrick Jane: I was hoping you'd opt for the massage.
- Madeleine Hightower: When Minelli was chief of the CBI, he struck a deal with FBI Director Shultz.
- Patrick Jane: What did Shultz want?
- Madeleine Hightower: She wanted reports, on you. Minelli provided them. When Minelli retired, that became a part of my job. But the intel wasn't going exactly going to the FBI. I found out that Shultz was passing it on to Homeland Security.
- Patrick Jane: Bob Kirkland?
- Madeleine Hightower: Yes.
- Patrick Jane: Why?
- Madeleine Hightower: He thought you were Red John.
- Patrick Jane: [realizing] Of course. How long have Homeland Security been watching me?
- Madeleine Hightower: Eight, nine years. I did what I thought was best at the time. Don't expect me to apologize.
- Patrick Jane: No, no, I won't.
- Madeleine Hightower: Jane, you cannot tell anyone you saw me. Even Lisbon.
- Patrick Jane: And I won't. I meant what I said. I'm gonna kill Red John. And you're gonna get your life back.
- Madeleine Hightower: I hope so. So what's next?
- Patrick Jane: Well, I'm gonna go see Bob Kirkland.
- Patrick Jane: Funny thing about the list. I... I'd rather not share it with you.
- Bob Kirkland: I get it. It's been your pet project for a long time. Mine, too. But you will share it with me.
- Patrick Jane: What if I just give you one name to start? Robert Kirkland.
- Bob Kirkland: Interesting. Makes sense, actually. But it doesn't really help me with my cause, though, does it?
- Patrick Jane: No, I suppose not. I was wrong about you. You're not Red John; you're hunting him, same as me.
- Bob Kirkland: Not exactly the same. I'm wiling to kill seven people to get the job done.
- Patrick Jane: Touché.
- Bob Kirkland: Why aren't you?
- Patrick Jane: 'Cause that would make me a murderer.
- Bob Kirkland: You're planning on murdering Red John. That doesn't make any sense.
- Patrick Jane: Okay, so we... we... we both have different approaches, but the important thing here is that we share a common goal. We can help each other if we work together.
- Bob Kirkland: I'm not interested in working together, and I doubt you are, either. We both want our revenge, and only one of us is going to get it.
- Bob Kirkland: Do you have siblings, Jane?
- Patrick Jane: No.
- Bob Kirkland: I had a twin brother, Michael. We were very close growing up.
- Patrick Jane: I hear that's a strong bond.
- Bob Kirkland: Our father was a sadistic drunk. Beat the crap out of us, and our mother. Beat her until she couldn't take it anymore.
- Patrick Jane: She left?
- Bob Kirkland: Yeah, with a razor blade. After that, it was just me and Michael. I was all he had.
- Patrick Jane: You were the stronger one.
- Bob Kirkland: Yeah. I grew up, I got away, but Michael couldn't do it. He stayed at home and watched our father drink himself to death.
- Patrick Jane: The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
- Bob Kirkland: You're right. Michael turned to the bottle. Drank like his life depended on it. I paid for treatments, I took him to meetings; nothing worked.
- Patrick Jane: Until?
- Bob Kirkland: Until one day he met someone. A man who could help him.
- Patrick Jane: More than a man. A savior.
- Bob Kirkland: Yeah. Red John. He only asked for a few simple things in return.
- Patrick Jane: Devotion and sacrifice.
- Bob Kirkland: Michael drifted further and further away, 'till one day he was gone. I never saw him again.
- Patrick Jane: You think Red John killed your brother.
- Bob Kirkland: Yes. I never found him, but in my heart, I know.
- [heavy sigh]
- Bob Kirkland: Look at me blab. I... you're not my therapist. I didn't bring you here to talk. Please tell me who the suspects are.
- Patrick Jane: No.
- Bob Kirkland: Have it your way.
- [picking up a pair of gardening shears and advancing on Jane]
- Bob Kirkland: You understand I'm gonna have to torture you?
- Patrick Jane: Taking pleasure in this?
- Madeleine Hightower: Don't get me wrong. You are a pain in the ass.
- Patrick Jane: Oh, thank you.
- Madeleine Hightower: But I wouldn't want anything bad to happen to you, especially when it would be my fault.
- Patrick Jane: I'm sure your conscience is clear now.
- Madeleine Hightower: It is. Now leave me alone. The next time I hear from you, you'd better be telling me Red John is dead.
- Patrick Jane: Deal. That is a deal. Thank you, Madeleine.
- Madeleine Hightower: [he kisses her cheek] You're welcome, Patrick. Good luck.
