Quotes 

• Patrick Jane : I don't think this is about who he killed so much as what he killed for. Hey, Tork. Long time, no see.

  Dennis Abbott : Do you mean the blood and the fingernails?

  Patrick Jane : Well, the fingernails not so much; I think they're just a gruesome trophy. But the blood he had to work for. He must need it for something.

• Rick Tork : Well, if he's interested in psychics, Jane should talk to him.

  Patrick Jane : Uh... not a psychic, dude.

  Rick Tork : No, but you can fake it, right? We could feed you to the media, say that you can communicate with the afterlife using your spiritual whatever. If he's really into that, we can get him to show himself.

  [clearly upset, Jane leaves] 

  Rick Tork : The Son of Sam killer sent letters to two of the writers who wrote about him. Hey, this kind of thing could really work.

  [seeing everyone's expressions] 

  Rick Tork : Did I say something wrong?

  Kimball Cho : Yeah. The last time Jane tried something like that, it didn't go well.

  Rick Tork : [realizing]  Oh, the wife and kid.

  Teresa Lisbon : [leaving]  Yeah. The wife and kid.

• Dennis Abbott : It's a tough situation. This city is in a full-on panic and we have no solid leads.

  Patrick Jane : Okay. Well, uh... do we try Tork's idea?

  Teresa Lisbon : What? No!

  Dennis Abbott : I don't think that we can rule anything out.

  Teresa Lisbon : Boss...

  Dennis Abbott : The guy is not hiding bodies anymore. You know, maybe he's starting to... to like the attention.

  Teresa Lisbon : Do you want him to do to Jane what he did to Gabriel?

  Dennis Abbott : Now, you know we won't let that happen.

  Teresa Lisbon : You can't promise that!

  Patrick Jane : You... you know what? I appreciate your spirited defense, but it... it's not necessary. I'll do it.
