- Patrick Jane: You really think I would forget your birthday present?
- [Lisbon nods]
- Grace Van Pelt: [leaving to answer a phone call] Van Pelt.
- Patrick Jane: It's on its way!
- Teresa Lisbon: Yeah, right.
- Patrick Jane: Little grumpy 'cause I didn't buy you a pony?
- Teresa Lisbon: You and Rigsby stay here. Talk to the kids Didrikson kept in line; see if they have the same take on the guy. Cho, Van Pelt, and are gonna go talk to the wife.
- Patrick Jane: All right. We'll see you later.
- Grace Van Pelt: Bye.
- Wayne Rigsby: Bye. Teenagers. I hate questioning teenagers. It's like talking to mud.
- Patrick Jane: You need some love in your heart.
- Wayne Rigsby: Oh, is that my problem?
- Patrick Jane: Yeah, it is. Stay close.
- Teresa Lisbon: Mrs. Didrikson, we're with the California Bureau of Investigation. Put the gun down.
- Gina Russo: California Bureau of my ass! You get the hell out of here; I will shoot you.
- Teresa Lisbon: This is my cell phone. I am gonna dial 911, and we will get uniform policemen here and they will sort everything out. In the meantime, we'll all relax.
- Gina Russo: Screw you! I'm gonna count to ten, and then I'm gonna start shooting. One! Two!
- Patrick Jane: [calling Lisbon] Lisbon.
- Teresa Lisbon: Jane, get off the phone.
- Gina Russo: Three!
- Patrick Jane: I think I know what we have here.
- Gina Russo: Four!
- Teresa Lisbon: I've got a situation.
- Gina Russo: Five! Six!
- Patrick Jane: I think Didrikson used to work for the mob and went into witness protection. I think that's why he's out here.
- Teresa Lisbon: What'd you learn?
- Patrick Jane: Well, she's scared, she's of Italian descent, she bites her nails, she doesn't like pets or pineapple.
- Teresa Lisbon: [sarcastic] Useful stuff.
- Patrick Jane: Sonny Battaglia?
- Santino 'Sonny' Battaglia: Keep moving, jack.
- Patrick Jane: Name's Jane. Patrick Jane. I need a moment of your time, if I may.
- Santino 'Sonny' Battaglia: For what?
- Patrick Jane: To speak about Eddie Russo.
- Santino 'Sonny' Battaglia: You a cop?
- Patrick Jane: No.
- Santino 'Sonny' Battaglia: Good. You alone?
- Patrick Jane: Yeah.
- Santino 'Sonny' Battaglia: [to his bodyguard] Shoot him.
- Patrick Jane: [having a gun pulled on him] There's three reasons I'm not scared. Well, okay, I'm scared, but there's three reasons I'm not terrified.
- Santino 'Sonny' Battaglia: Please tell.
- Patrick Jane: One, you don't get to be your age, rich and unimprisoned by shooting people willy-nilly on golf courses.
- Santino 'Sonny' Battaglia: Until now. You know what consistency is?
- Patrick Jane: The hobgoblin of little minds.
- Santino 'Sonny' Battaglia: Right. Emerson. Okay, reason number two?
- Patrick Jane: I can significantly improve your golf game.
- Santino 'Sonny' Battaglia: You and hundred other buckalahs. Reason number three?
- Santino 'Sonny' Battaglia: I know where to find Eddie Russo.
- Santino 'Sonny' Battaglia: [after a tense pause, he nods and his bodyguard lowers his gun] How do I improve my game?
- Patrick Jane: Well, it's very simple. It's easy. You have to think of hitting the ball more as, uh... an act of creation. What you need is a little more flow.
- Santino 'Sonny' Battaglia: Flow?
- Patrick Jane: Mm-hmm.
- Santino 'Sonny' Battaglia: I changed my mind. Shoot him.
- Patrick Jane: Thanks for your time, Mr. Battaglia. See you later.
- Santino 'Sonny' Battaglia: [Jane starts to leave] Hey, wait a minute. I'm not finished talking with you yet.
- Patrick Jane: Well, I'm finished talking with you.
- Santino 'Sonny' Battaglia: Hey, what are... what are you, Al Pacino all of a sudden? People don't act that way with me!
- Patrick Jane: I do, when there's witnesses around.
- Santino 'Sonny' Battaglia: [to his associates] What are we gonna do with this guy? He's got a screw loose.
- Patrick Jane: You know, you think you have a certain outlaw charm about you, and you do, but you live by oppression. In reality, you're just a greedy, twisted little sadist.
- Wayne Rigsby: You played golf with Sonny Battaglia?
- Patrick Jane: Yeah. Sonny, uh... well... I did. Mm-hmm.
- Teresa Lisbon: What'd you learn?
- Patrick Jane: He didn't kill Russo. And golf is oddly very easy.
- Teresa Lisbon: And you're sure of this?
- Patrick Jane: Mm. I'm very sure. It's all about rhythm. Anyone could do it.
- [Lisbon gives him a sarcastic smile]
- Patrick Jane: Yeah, Sonny Battaglia's clean; at least I think. It's hard to say with a sociopath.
- Patrick Jane: [dialing a number on his phone and handing it to Van Pelt] When someone answers, can you say "Is Mary there"?
- Grace Van Pelt: Why?
- Patrick Jane: Just for fun.
- Santino 'Sonny' Battaglia: [at the golf course, Battaglia is on the other end of the phone call] Huh?
- Grace Van Pelt: Hi. Is, um... is Mary there?
- Santino 'Sonny' Battaglia: No, lady, it's the wrong number.
- Grace Van Pelt: [hanging up] Wrong number. What was that about?
- Patrick Jane: Groundwork.
