Fun! An interview!
Local cop: Is he sniffing her?
Lisbon: Yes.
Local cop: You pay him to sniff people?
Lisbon: Apparently.
Funny when Jane upset the local cop by pointing out his wife left him. Haha, and this right after Lisbon pointed out how important it was that Jane should not upset him.
Haha funny how happy Jane gets showing the picture of the cat followed by the guy saying:
Wilson: …but it died.
And Jane’s smile fades away!
The Mayor: Wilson!
Jane: I’m not saying you killed her. I’m just saying you are relieved that she is dead.
The Mayor: [To Wilson] These people will be leaving now!
Jane: I like the way you say that Melba, like the toast, so tough and commanding. Well let me tell you something. We are state law enforcement and we leave when we wanna leave!
Lisbon: [Panicked smile] Thank you for your time!
Jane: She wants to leave.
Wow! Scary with the fire! That was a close call! Now that’s entertainment!
How sentimental Rigsby got in front of the camera, it was kind of uncomfortable!
Cho’s interview was awesome! Just simply awesome!
Cho: Why am I a detective? Why are you a reporter?
Reporter: What?
Cho: Why are you making this documentary?
Reporter: It’s a fresh perspective on law enforcement.
Cho: No, I mean what’s in it for you?
Reporter: Well. Scoring this exclusive is a good way of getting noticed.
Cho: So you’re ambitious? How long have you been doing the news here?
Reporter: About eight years.
Cho: Anchor?
Reporter: Mostly field work.
Cho: So you’re ambitious but you haven’t gotten very far?
Reporter: I guess that’s about it, yeah. You don’t like being asked questions do you? The team as a whole seems to have a problem with that.
Cho: Is that a question?
[The interview ends.]
And the smile afterwards was great!
What a she dog the Mayor is! Ahh!
I was wondering why Jane didn’t like being in front of the cameras, it’s his thing! But that’s right, last time that happened his family got killed. Poor Jane!
Jane got kidnapped! No!
It’s Wilson!? Chocked! I haven’t been so chocked since… okay I’m just chocked… Good twist! This episode has got some lovely action in it! The twist, the fire, awful politicians. Nice, nice.
Cho and Rigsby can be quite threatening when their pal is in trouble. I even got a little scared, and I’m watching fiction!
Bad idea kidnapping a hypnotist, not really ideal.
The idea about a TV crew showing what the police really do is a good idea. Am I the only one who perceives the police to sit at their desks all day not bothering to do their actual jobs? Not bothering because it would create too much paper work?
Good ending as well! It was the TV reporter? This episode had a great story! It was intriguing and entertaining.
And Van Pelt and Rigsby told Lisbon about their relationship, finally!
